What Curaleaf does

One of the largest US multi-state cannabis operators, growing, processing and retailing cannabis products across many US states.

Sells through its own dispensaries, where it keeps the retail margin, and wholesales what it grows to other stores, state by state under separate licences. Rules and tax treatment differ by state, so results depend on each market's licence count and pricing.

In one line: A leading US cannabis MSO (multi-state operator).

Products and services

  • Cannabis cultivation/processing
  • Retail dispensaries
  • Branded cannabis products
  • International (European) cannabis operations

Customers

  • Medical and adult-use cannabis consumers (US)

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Cannabis
  • Cultivation/processing
  • Retail dispensaries

What could go right

  • US cannabis rescheduling/legalisation progress
  • Store network/market expansion

What could go wrong

  • Federal illegality limits banking/tax treatment
  • State-level price compression/oversupply

Moat: narrow (scale, brand, regulatory licence). State cannabis licences and multi-state cultivation/retail scale are barriers, though the market remains fragmented and competitive.

Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
