在2018年底签署《农业法案》之后，公司开始看到投机者大量购买现有的大麻。因此，我们果断地采取行动，确保单一最大的优质生物量来源，这笔资金保证公司能够继续满足客户对 CBD 的需求。
Mile High Labs, the largest extractor of CBD in the world, achieved another historic financing event with the close of a $65MM term loan facility, one of the largest non-dilutive capital raises in the sector to date. The financing comes on the heels of the largest Series A equity raise in cannabis market history, completed during the fourth quarter of 2018.
世界上最大的 CBD 提取者 Mile High Labs ，完成了另一项历史性融资活动，获得了6500万美元的定期贷款，这是迄今为止该行业规模最大的非稀释资本融资之一。融资之前，大麻市场历史上规模最大的 A 系列股权融资已于2018年第四季度完成。
“Following the signing of the Farm Bill in late 2018, we started seeing speculators take out significant portions of the available hemp supply. So we acted decisively to secure the single largest source of high-quality biomass available,” said Jon Hilley, CFO of Mile High Labs.
“在2018年底签署《农业法案》之后，我们开始看到投机者大量购买现有的大麻。因此，我们果断地采取行动，确保单一最大的优质生物量来源，” Mile High Labs 首席财务官乔恩•希利( Jon Hilley )表示。
“It is quite literally a mountain of hemp – millions of pounds – and this funding guarantees we can continue to meet the increasing demand for CBD from our customers.”
“这真的是一大堆大麻——数百万英镑——这笔资金保证了我们能够继续满足客户对 CBD 日益增长的需求。”
Jason Roth, CEO of Mile High Labs, added, “I want to take a moment to thank two groups who made this possible. The first is our farm partners who trust and believe in us – we greatly appreciate your support and hard work. The second is MGG Investment Group, an incredibly sharp group of investment professionals who worked with us at breakneck speed to get this deal done. MGG is one of the most thorough, thoughtful and commercially minded debt funds I’ve come across – they are great partners who understand our vision and want to support it.”
Mile High Labs 的首席执行官 Jason Roth 补充道：“我想花一点时间感谢两个团队，他们使这成为可能。首先是我们的农场伙伴，他们信任我们，我们非常感谢你们的支持和辛勤工作。第二个是 MGG 投资集团，这是一群非常精明的投资专业人士，他们以极快的速度与我们合作，以完成这项交易。MGG 是我遇到的最彻底、最深思熟虑、最具商业头脑的债务基金之一——它们是理解我们愿景、并希望支持我们的伟大合作伙伴。”
This non-dilutive deal bests most of the deals being done on the market today due to its low cost and speed of execution. Investor Danny Moses, best known for his portrayal in The Big Short, is an investor in Mile High Labs and also consulted with MGG on this financing.
由于其低成本和执行速度，这一非稀释交易击败了目前市场上大多数交易。投资者丹尼·摩西，最出名的是他在《大空头》( The Big Short )中的形象，他是 Mile High Labs 的投资者，也就这笔融资咨询了 MGG 。
“I was lucky enough to have met the Mile High Labs team last year and saw first-hand their drive to be the standard setter in the hemp extraction business,” said Moses. “This financing represents one of the lowest cost debt deals I’ve seen in this market and is representative of what can happen when you have a strong management team, a solid business plan and the vision to be the global leader in a sector with so much opportunity.”
“我很幸运，去年我会见了 Mile High Labs 团队，亲眼目睹了他们成为大麻提取行业标准制定者的努力，”摩西说。“这次融资是我在这个市场上看到的成本最低的债务交易之一，代表着当你拥有强大的管理团队、稳健的商业计划以及成为这个机会如此之多的行业全球领导者的愿景时可能发生的事情。”
“With this funding in place and our biomass supply secured, it’s time to put our heads down and continue to lead the way in CBD quality, safety and compliance,” continued Roth. “Most analysts believe CBD will be one of the largest consumer markets in the world. There will be many winners in the CBD market, and we expect to be one of the largest.”
“有了这笔资金，我们的生物质供应得到了保障，现在是时候放下头，继续引领生物多样性公约的质量、安全和合规性了，” Roth 继续说。“多数分析师认为， CBD 将是全球最大的消费市场之一。CBD 市场将会有很多赢家，我们希望成为最大的赢家之一。”
