margins and position us for interstate
commerce when the time comes.
How does Curaleaf weigh the
amount to invest in certain
markets, knowing that some of
them won't be cost competitive
after federal legalization?
We deploy a multi-horizon approach to
evaluating investments at Curaleaf. We
need to continue to invest in capital
projects on a state-by-state basis to
ensure that we can supply the current
demand in the market and hit our
financial goals.
These projects typically pay back in
relatively short time frames, so we're
not too concerned about recouping
our investment. We're playing the long
game.
At the same time, we're investing
in assets that will not only meet
our current capacity requirements
but prepare us for the eventual
nationalization of cannabis.
The third horizon is investing in
assets to prepare us for where the
industry might be in three to five years,
like our investments in the European
market through the acquisition of
Emmac (Life Sciences)/Curaleaf
International earlier this year.
What keeps you up at night?
There's undeniable momentum in our
industry, but my fear is that politics
gets in the way of the will of the
people.
In order to create a robust and
equitable industry, we need the right
balance of legislation, taxation and
law enforcement. If all three of these
elements aren't considered, there's a
risk to the industry.
Another concern is that, once
cannabis is legalized, administration
falls under the authority of the FDA
(U.S. Food and Drug Administration),
and the FDA puts the brakes on the
industry until they have the chance to
research the effects of cannabis, which
would unravel years of progress and
virtually eliminate the opportunity for
smaller companies and entrepreneurs
to participate in the growth of the
industry.
