  • The Largest Closed M&A Deal of the Week:
  • On June 10, 2024, Innovative Industrial Properties (IIPR: NYSE), the largest provider of sales-leaseback financing to the cannabis industry, acquired a $13M industrial space in Florida that will be leased to AYR. IIPR will reimburse AYR up to $30M for the development of a 98k sq ft building in Ocala for conversion of the property into a cultivation facility.
  • AYR is making a bold bet on Florida, doubling down on debt financing in order to maximize its pre-adult rec footprint.
  • Undoubtedly, the company figures that Florida rec is its most significant lever to get out of the excessive leverage that it has done nothing to tame. If it spends the money and adult rec hits, it may be able to grow out of its debt refinancing issues, whereas if adult rec doesn’t pass, the company could be in for a wild ride through 2026 when its extended debt comes home to roost.
  • Rescheduling is big for AYR, but Florida is the real bet.
