SILVERDALE, WA / ACCESSWIRE / August 12, 2015 / CGrowth Capital, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: CGRA) (the "Company") is pleased to update shareholders on progress made towards its first turnkey lease to a cannabis producer in Washington State. As previously announced, the Lessee has completed its initial interviews and approvals with the Washington State Liquor Control Board ("LCB"), paving the way for the future site(s). The Company has followed this up with preliminary approval from Stevens County for the placement of the facility, and is now preparing for formal permit and site development submission. The Company has budgeted up to $1m for the complete buildout and remodel and is working with investors and lenders to arrive at acceptable financing terms.

Recent changes in the recreational cannabis space in Washington State continue to improve the feasibility of the project. The state enacted changes to its tax structure in July of this year which eliminated the multi-tier tax structure on the producer and processor, and has now shifted to a flat tax at the retail sale only. This lowers the overall cost to the Lessee and improves gross margins. Additionally, medical cannabis dispensaries are being phased out by the end of June 2016, shifting all sales to the new state retail system supported by the producer / processors. The results of this change should positively impact the demand for legal production by up to tenfold, as a majority of sales are still completed via medical dispensary sales - who get their product from co-ops - which will be effectively restricted for sale under the new system.

"Predictions abound about a future of 'big pot.' ArcView, a cannabis industry research firm, put the size of the legal marijuana market at $2.6 billion in 2014. Another study by a pro-marijuana group said the industry, if fully legalized across the country by 2020, could be worth $35 billion each year."

"Whether you are a proponent or not, the cannabis movement is upon us," stated Bill Wright, CEO of CGrowth Capital, Inc. "Many observers predict this to be the fasted growing market segment in the years to follow. We believe that positioning the Company to be a part of this opportunity, both as a legal lessor now, as well as being in position to complete a future rollup upon national legalization, is a prudent business move to maximize shareholder opportunity."
