COCONUT CREEK, Fla., April 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Via OTC PR Wire -- Bahamas Development Corporation (OTCPINK:BDCI) subsidiary company Cannabis Consortium, Inc. has secured a second Private Placement of $375,000 to plant 15 acres of hemp on a 1,400 acre farm to validate crop yields and document actual income streams accruing to the Company.
Cannabis estimates the initial 15 acres will net $1,425,000 of which Cannabis will receive its initial investment of $375,000 back, plus an additional 15% of the net.
A soil sample was taken prior to receiving the financial commitment from the investor, and the soil test was returned from the lab proving there are no toxins or pesticides present.
The 15-acre hemp test plot is being prepared now, and planting is scheduled for May 2018. The farmer estimates two crop grows annually. If the initial test is proven, the next layer of the plan is to plant up to 800 acres of hemp.
The estimated gross revenue expected to accrue annually from 800 acres is $160,000,000 minus $20,000,000 in operating expenses, resulting in a net of $140,000,000. After the first year of operation the farm may expand to 1,400 acres.
The $375,000 investment is completely non-dilutive to BDCI. No shares, options, warrants or debt agreements were executed by BDCI in the acceptance of this money, and the investor will receive shares in Cannabis Consortium.
