Hemp Acquisition Reminds Investors to Focus on Hemp Plays

HENDERSON, NV / ACCESSWIRE / October 16, 2018 / Monday investors were reminded that hemp companies are a big part of the cannabis craze when Canopy Growth Corp. announced a deal to buy Ebbu Inc., a Colorado-based hemp researcher, in a stock-and-cash deal worth more than $425 million.

Under the agreement, Canopy will pay $25 million in cash and issue 6,221,210 shares to Ebbu.

This news had us on the lookout for other hemp players that could be potential candidates for acquisition. Chineseinvestors.com Inc. (CIIX) is our favorite of the lot. The company owns a hemp-infused, rice wine brand called CBD Hemp Wine through its wholly-owned foreign enterprise CBD Biotechnology Co. Ltd. The fact that it is a CBD beverage only adds to the desirability as major consumer beverage brands, like Molson Coors and Coca Cola have been doing some shopping of their own.

CIIX is an interesting investment in acquisition or not the company had a 41% increase in revenue for fiscal 2018 over 2017 buoyed by a 28,859% increase in consumer product sales largely attributed to their CBD lines.

This was among the reasons SeeThru Equity decided to give the company a $3.75 price target.

This Thursday CIIX is presenting at a Virtual Investor Conference and will certainly draw a lot of interest. This may be a last chance to invest in CIIX before it goes parabolic at its current price it looks like a serious bargain.

CBD stocks to watch include: ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (CIIX), Canopy Growth Corporation (CGC), Aurora Cannabis, Inc. (ACBFF), Aphria, Inc. (APHQF), and CV Sciences, Inc. (CVSI).
