“This has been a great year to-date for Zoned Properties, as we delivered our second consecutive quarter with positive net income, grew our revenue by 23% year-over-year and took steps to drive further growth,” commented Bryan McLaren, Chief Executive Officer of Zoned Properties. “The expansion of our Tempe Medical Marijuana Business Park, to include the Corporate Headquarters of our primary tenant in Arizona, is a strong vote of confidence and a testament to the work we have done to create a sophisticated, safe, and sustainable property for this emerging industry. In the coming months, we will be providing details on our expansion plans at our Chino Valley Cultivation Facility, a development we anticipate will set a new industry standard. This project was only 15,000 square feet of operational space initially and has now been amended and constructed up to 35,000 square feet with plans to continue to 45,000 by end of 2017, with secured water rights for the entire acreage. I am excited to discuss our long-term master plan for Chino Valley in the coming months.”

“With a stable, profitable baseline of business, Zoned Properties is moving aggressively to expand its existing portfolio in a sustainable and responsible manner to drive higher rental revenues and increased profitability while mitigating risk,” added Mr. McLaren. “We believe that Zoned Properties is uniquely positioned in this rapidly emerging industry. With tangible assets and strong demand for rental properties zoned for use in the licensed medical marijuana industry, we believe we have the potential for strong growth and cash generation. Increasingly, we are being approached by prospective clients to utilize our expertise in strategic development advisory services, and we are positioned to be highly selective as we evaluate these opportunities.”
