Where to begin. Having been a long time holder of Altria stock I have finally had the time to sit down and look at recent investments done by the company, especially the mess with Juul and the very interesting Cronos Group investment. I mention this because, is anyone familiar with Gotham Green Partners? If you should visit their site, it is a complete throw back to the site that RLS had originally. A picture with and email address and physical address of the business. But their specialty is "focused on deploying capital into cannabis and cannabis-related enterprises on a global scale". Umm okay who has an inhaler that can almost certainly be paired with any number of CBD compounds to combat a range of aliments, yup little ole Mannkind.
I have been interested in investing Cronos Group for sometime as they have Altria leadership on the board and a hoard of cash, also courtesy of Altria. Looking through Cronos's most recent quarterly, a 50-50 partnership with MedMen Cannabis Dispensary comes in view. Specifically, Cronos has a 50% interest in MedMen Canada. Living abroad as I do, and not having been back to LA for near 10 years, I searched more about them. Well if you live in California, Florida, or an state with a large population, you might have seen one of their stores. There are the "Apple Store" of cannabis. However, they are bleeding money like a shotgun wound. Also, the founders have ridiculous control over the company with shares that are called "Super Voting Shares", where 1 class A share is equal to 1000 class B shares, truly a way to screw retail investors. And, recently they had their quarterly call, where the shit truly hit the fan, layoffs, cost cutting, divestment, a true shit storm. But, interestingly through all of this the one thing that stood out in my mind; a freaking $250m credit facility! Provided by none other, Gotham Green Partners.
Ok. If you have read this far, which I appreciate I will get to my point. We have the know how, Andrea Leone-Bay former MannKind Researcher, current RLS Chief Science Officer. We have a proven device that currently UTHR is ready to use to replace existing therapies. What we dont have is the cash pursue other possible pipe-line canidates. Mike needs to start pounding the table hard, and if no listens, pound the son-of-bitch harder. Best in class, efficient inhalation, disposable, discrete, non-electrically, the list goes on. Find a compound RLS doesnt have rights do, present the possibilities of success, sit down and get a deal done. The MJ space is currently misunderstood, which gives companies like Mannkind a chance in my opinion. We can go to a co like Gotham, tell them we are doing work in the CBD space and need funding to continue the work. I wonder if they would be willing suitors? They gave $250m to a co like MedMen, I think we could do well with less than half to expand the pipeline.
Thought and comments.
