Recommendation: Strong
Planet 13 is focused on becoming a leading global brand known for its distribution, operations, and manufacturing of innovative cannabis products. The company is currently investing in strategic technologies for the growing demand of high quality and diverse cannabis oils and extracts for medical and retail use in the U.S.

Planet 13 signed strategic partnerships with suppliers of concentrates, cartridges, and tinctures to supply high quality cannabis products for its superstore in Las Vegas. Their new highly automated production facility in Las Vegas will use robotics to reduce costs and will be able to process 600 lbs plant biomass per day. We think Planet 13 is in a good position to be a profitable company, as they are in the expansion phase of their retail and production facilities. In 2018, Planet 13 experienced growth of more than 10 percent in terms of average daily customers.

Will its stock price improve in the long term? We think so.

In 2018, Planet 13 revenue rose 136% from $9.0 million (2017) to $21.2 million and gross margin rose to $10.9 million as compared $4.6 million in 2017, an increase of 134%. These figures show strong growth as compared to other Cannabis stocks struggling to maintain growth.

Planet 13 had US $884 k in debt by March 2019 as compared to US $4.25 m a year prior. However, they have US $20.2 m in cash or cash equivalent to cover its debt obligations with net cash of US $19.3 m. Planet 13’s debt to equity ratio for the year 2018 was only 0.02 which means that they are not raising debt to finance their growth which can result in less volatility in earnings as a result of reduced interest expense.

Planet 13 is showing persistent increase in its earnings growth for the last two years so investors should keep an eye on its EPS growth rate if they intend to hold stock for the long term. Planet 13 management holds 61% of company outstanding shares listed which shows their confidence in the long-term outlook of the company.

For these reasons, we think Planet 13, at or near the its current price of $1.86 a share, is very good investment opportunity—however as the price rises this opportunity will eventually disappear.
