The medical marijuana market has been growing like a weed, puns intended, but we haven’t logged many deals associated with it because they’re either undisclosed or simply too far afield to qualify. Last week, however, Las Vegas-based Signal Bay Inc. announced its acquisition of Bend, Oregon-based CannAlytical Research, a testing laboratory that is equipped with the latest high-performance liquid chromatography equipment. It provides state-mandated compliance tests for licensed medical marijuana dispensaries. Signal Bay, through its wholly owned subsidiaries Signal Bay Research, Inc. and Signal Bay Services, Inc., provides industry research, consulting, license application support and analytical testing services to the legalized cannabis industry.
