TORONTO, Feb. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - Cannabis Growth Opportunity Corporation ("CGOC", or the "Company") (CSE: CGOC), a cannabis focused investment corporation with both public and private cannabis holdings, announces the company's updated net asset value per common share ("NAV") of $2.99 at the close of business on February 15, 2019. This represents growth of 29% since our Initial Public Offering on January 26, 2018.
CGOC is now approximately 99% percent invested in companies operating in Canada, the U.S., Jamaica and Israel. CGOC's top ten public investments as of February 15, 2019 (in alphabetical order) are: C21 Investments Corp. (CSE : CXXI), Cannex Capital Holdings Inc. (CSE : CNNX), CannTrust Holdings Inc.

Jamie Blundell, President and Chief Operating Officer of CGOC commented, "CGOC realized a gain of 7.9% over last month compared to the North American Marijuana Index, which saw a 7.8% increase. While the share price has improved significantly since the beginning of 2019 (an increase of approximately 89% up to the close on February 19, 2019), the discount to NAV is currently 39%.
"While we are confident that our marketing efforts and the enactment of the NCIB has contributed to the upwards trend of the share price since the beginning of 2019, the discount gap remains quite large. Management and the Board of Directors have been assessing opportunities that could potentially correct this significant discrepancy."
