OUR 9TH YEAR OF PROVIDING PROPRIETARY CAPITAL MARKETS INTELLIGENCE ON THE CANNABIS / HEMP / PSYCHEDELIC SECTORS

Credit Tracker By Industry Sector

Credit Tracker By Sector

Credit ratings are not currently available for public cannabis companies leaving companies, lenders and investors with a gap of information. The Viridian Cannabis Credit Tracker fills this gap. The model uses 11 market and financial statement variables to discern 4 key credit factors: Liquidity, Leverage, Profitability, and Size, to provide credit/liquidity analysis for over 370 public Cannabis/Hemp companies.

Week ended 01/13/2023

The Viridian Credit Tracker utilizes 11 different bespoke credit ratios to evaluate four aspects of credit quality: Liquidity, Leverage, Profitability, and Size. Given the constrained capital markets, we are keeping a close eye on liquidity. This week, one statistic that caught our eye was debt to market cap of the 103 Cultivation & Retail companies in the Viridian database. The median is now .95x, up from about .35x a year ago.  The market is ascribing less asset value coverage to the sectors debt.  The ratio is still moderate and consistent with single B rated companies.  We would be concerned if the ratio rose above 2.5x.
