The Top 5 Reasons To Be High on Flora Growth Corp.

1) Analysts believe that Flora Growth Corp. (NASDAQ: FLGC) stock could be surprisingly undervalued with a 5x upside potential.

2) The company boasts the world’s lowest production costs for dried flower creating a much broader cushion for excellent profit margins. 

3) The company’s revenues are sharply on the rise since going public in 2020.

4) Flora Growth Corp. (NASDAQ: FLGC) has a solid international presence and a quickly expanding portfolio of new clients.

5) With the launch of Munzhi, Flora Growth Corp. (NASDAQ: FLGC) is in prime position to capture a large chunk of the $3.31 billion Colombian wellness market.

The U.S. cannabis industry is growing at an unparalleled pace. Sales for 2021 are estimated to finish at $31 billion, an increase of 41% over 2020. And yet, despite this positive sales growth, cannabis stocks slumped in the second half of 2021.

Think about it. Sales up, revenues up, growth flourishing – stock prices down?

This screams opportunity! And Flora Growth Corp (NASDAQ: FLGC) is a perfect example. In fact, not one but two Wall Street analysts believe Flora could be unreasonably undervalued.

After reaching a high of $21.45 on Aug 16, 2021, Flora appears to have been caught up in the extreme undertow that bashed the Global Cannabis Stock Index down from $55.91 on Aug 13, 2021 to $32.11 on Dec 20, 2021. 

But whoever said the market runs on logic and not emotions?

Flora Growth Corp (NASDAQ: FLGC): Boasts a Sizeable Advantage with Its Strong International Presence

What makes Flora such a compelling and unique company is the fact that they have tossed their net far and wide. While many cannabis companies rely heavily on the sometimes lumbering approval processes in Canada and the United States, Flora is playing it smart by planting their seeds in the global marketplace as well.


For example, Flora is keeping the wheels of revenue moving with orders for its Mind Naturals and Awe CBD skincare brands for the Spanish and Mexican markets.


The European cannabis market stands at $4.96 billion and is expected to reach $13.37 billion by 2026. While the Mexican market is reported to be between 1.8 and 2 billion U.S. dollars.

That’s why the company expects second half 2021 revenues to come in between $9 million and $11 million, trouncing 1H20, which saw just $100,000.

Flora Growth Corp (NASDAQ: FLGC): Developing AI-Powered Compounds to Address Chronic Pain

There’s absolutely no question at this point in time, the continued trend of medical and adult-use cann-a-bis legalization rapidly sweeping across the globe.


Meet Flora Lab. According to company CEO Luis Merchan, “Our objective is to create and leverage a proprietary dr-ug development platform in collaboration with an artificial intelligence and machine learning group to identify new bioactive compounds within the cann-a-bis plant that interact with certain gene targets responsible for specific disease states and conditions.”


Flora Lab is actively participating in a study on the use of cannabinoids in patients suffering from Fibromyalgia or chronic pain, with the primary research sites located in the United States and the United Kingdom.

Flora Growth Corp. (NASDAQ: FLGC) is Quickly Expanding

At the moment, Flora Growth is targeting transactions to complete the supply chain via key infrastructure to enhance its global distribution with the aim to compete on low-cost, high-quality inputs paired with premium brands that create business lines with robust margins.


Most recently, the company signed a Letter of Intent to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Switzerland based Koch & Gsell and its wholly-owned hemp brand, Heimat. 


In fact, according to a recent company press release:

“The Heimat brand, if acquired, will represent a substantive addition to the Flora brand portfolio as a high growth brand, with trailing twelve-month revenues of US$7.6M. Pursuant to the terms of the LOI and subject to the definitive acquisition agreement and approvals, upon the closing of the transaction, Flora will also invest CHF 2 million (Swiss Francs), or approximately US$2.2M, to rapidly grow the Heimat brand into new markets and to strengthen Heimat’s position in the Swiss market. Further, by leveraging Koch & Gsell’s existing distribution network, Flora plans to introduce its brand portfolio, including Mind Naturals, Mambe, and Almost Virgin, to the Swiss and European market.”

The company also just announced it signed a Letter of Intent for the purpose of making an initial strategic equity investment of €2M (two-million Euros) into the European cannabis company, Hoshi International Inc. 

“This initial investment into Hoshi is the first of many steps by Flora to advance its plans to launch Flora-branded products across the world,” said Luis Merchan, CEO of Flora. “We believe in backing strong teams with proven track records and creating synergistic relationships where core competencies have minimal overlap. The Hoshi team has built a fantastic base in Europe and by utilizing our low-cost, high-potency product and established brands, it allows both of our organizations to have a competitive edge as the European cannabis market continues to grow rapidly.”

Hoshi is positioned to become a leading vertically integrated medical cannabis company in Europe. Hoshi was founded by a group of cannabis entrepreneurs who have built and scaled several cannabis businesses in the highly regulated cannabis market in Canada. Flora’s proposed investment into Hoshi will establish Flora as a preferred strategic supplier to Hoshi’s two EU processing facilities, located in Malta and Portugal.

Argus Research Sees a Very Bright Future for the Company

In a July 21, 2021 report, Argus Research company reported the following:

Flora Growth is well capitalized, with $30 million in proceeds from a December 2020 private financing, $16.6 million in IPO proceeds, and the expected infusion of more than $20 million from the exercise of warrants.

We forecast revenue of 9 million in 2021 and $32 million in 2022, excluding the impact of recently announced transactions. We expect annual revenue growth to exceed 100% over the next two years as Flora expands its cultivation and extraction capabilities; broadens its consumer product portfolio; brings its manufacturing facility online; and expands into new markets, most notably in Europe.

We expect Flora to emerge as an important cultivator and global supplier of quality cannabis given its significant cost advantages.

Reduced Costs Gives the Company a Huge Competitive Advantage

What many people don’t realize is that cannabis is a specialty cut flower, and Colombia is the number one producer of flowers in the world and the number two largest exporter of flowers behind the Netherlands.


As a result, Flora is able to produce dry flower at a significantly lower cost than most growers. Its production cost of approximately $0.06 per gram compares with costs that can exceed $1.00 per gram in certain parts of North America.

Reduced Costs Gives the Company a Huge Competitive Advantage

Colombia boasts excellent favorable economic conditions, in the fact that the agricultural skilled labor is about 9x more cost effective than the United States. This includes much lower production costs that include utilities and water.


What’s even more amazing is that Flora’s costs are also lower than those of its Colombian peers. (the closest currently producing at $0.15 per gram).


That said, management estimates that Flora’s all-in costs, including packaging and transportation, are closer to peer average costs for cultivation alone, and significantly lower than the all-in costs of growers in other regions.

Reduced Costs Gives the Company a Huge Competitive Advantage

While Colombia was once infamous for its illicit drug trade, the country has now become a hotbed for agricultural businesses which include everything from coffee to bananas and cut flowers. Roughly 5 years ago, the Colombian government signed the 1787 bill into law. Law 1787 was created to regulate the use of medicinal cannabis and its trade in the country.(4)


This was spearheaded by Flora’s Strategic Advisor Juan Manuel Galán, who at the time served as a former senator of Colombia.


In a May 2020 interview, GalĂĄn said,

“I was a Senator for three periods for 12 years in total. In the last period of my tenure, I proposed the law that established all the norms for legalizing cann-a-bis for medical use. And during those years I also tried to put forward a debate to find new policies and not having this same policy that we’ve been applying for 50 years.”

By passing this new law, Colombia joined a slew of other countries looking to explore the potential advantages of using cannabis as an alternative to pharmaceuticals.


Colombia truly is Flora Growth’s (NASDAQ: FLGC) secret to pursuing the role of becoming one of the biggest players in the industry.

“Given its cost advantages, we believe Colombia is positioned to become a major global export hub for cannabis, particularly if producers pursue EU GMP-compliant operating practices.“
