In the Matter of
Schedules of Controlled Substances:
Proposed Rescheduling of Marijuana
ORDER FOR TRANSCRIPT CORRECTIONS AND POST-HEARING BRIEFS
👀
US Federal Department of Justice:
“The intended beneficiaries of the CSA are the American public and scientists and medical practitioners seeking legitimate access to controlled substances for research and patient treatment,” the brief states. “Petitioners are not the intended beneficiaries of the CSA, nor do their interests systemically align with those beneficiaries. Petitioners invoke the interests of (1) drug screeners in avoiding loss of business and increased costs; (2) employers in avoiding the costs of revising drug-testing protocols; and (3) a pharmaceutical company in preventing market competition. Petitioners thus invoke pocketbook interests served by keeping all marijuana in schedule I.”

A pretty good start to the year for @Trulieve. Results were marginally ahead of expectations on both rev/aEBITDA although down YoY despite 11 new stores opened in that time. Cash flow/margins were strong with good cost controls and immediate 280e relief for medical sales
Solid start to the year for @GTIGrows - strong YoY growth ahead of expectations, timely share buybacks, market share gains, and continued cash generation to support CapEx spend and potential M&A opportunities ahead
An okay start to the year for @Curaleaf_Inc. Good to see YoY growth resume at a decent clip and top-line/aEBITDA were both ahead of expectations. Despite the beat, Q1 aEBITDA margins of 19.6% were the lowest the company has posted since 2020 as price compression remains ongoing
