Curaleaf Holdings Inc.
\n CURLF,
\n +0.94%<\/bg-quote>,<\/span>
\n the largest publicly-traded cannabis company in the U.S. by market capitalization, plans to move its stock listing to the Toronto Stock Exchange, the company\u2019s chairman told MarketWatch on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Boris Jordan said the company has cleared a TSX listing requirement by raising about C$16 million in capital as a final step toward a formal application to the exchange in the near future.<\/p>\n

\n

TSX will then review the application, with a potential listing over the coming months. A spokesperson for the TSX did not immediately reply to an email from MarketWatch about the Curaleaf listing.<\/p>\n

The TSX listing will bring stability, better governance and better protection\u00a0from market manipulation of its stock, Jordan said.<\/p>\n

Curaleaf said Canaccord Genuity has agreed to purchase 2.7 million offered securities from the company for total gross proceeds of C$16.2 million ($12 million). The bank, in turn, will offer the securities in Canada and the U.S. on a private-placement basis to qualified institutional buyers. <\/p>\n

Curaleaf is making the offering to satisfy a condition required for a potential listing on the TSX, the company said.<\/p>\n

Curaleaf\u2019s stock rose by 0.9% on Thursday. The stock is up 4.5% so far in 2023, compared to a 15% gain by the AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF
\n MSOS.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

Generally, the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) continues to house stock listings of most other cannabis companies operating in the U.S. The stocks also trade on the OTC market in the U.S., which is more thinly regulated than the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq.<\/p>\n

However the NYSE and the Nasdaq remain off-limits for cannabis companies doing business in the U.S. due to the Schedule I category for cannabis under U.S. drug law. <\/p>\n

Despite its merits for cannabis companies seeking a public listing of some kind, the CSE remains a very small exchange compared to the TSX, which ranks as one of the larger stock exchanges in the world.\u00a0CSE is considered a venture exchange, which means it doesn\u2019t qualify for many institutions and pension funds that are typically prohibited from investing in venture-listed companies. The TSX has no such restrictions. <\/p>\n

TerrAscend
\n TSND,
\n +0.73%<\/bg-quote>
\n has seen trading volume grow roughly three- or four-fold since it moved its listing to the TSX in a move that drew praise from analysts over the summer.<\/p>\n

With a market capitalization of about $3 billion and annual sales of about $1.4 billion, Curaleaf ranks as the largest publicly-traded cannabis company doing business in U.S. states where it\u2019s legal. Other big names include Green Thumb Industries
\n GTBIF,
\n +0.27%<\/bg-quote>,<\/span>
\n Cresco Labs Inc.
\n CRLBF,
\n +7.45%<\/bg-quote>,<\/span>
\n Trulieve Cannabis Corp.
\n TCNNF,
\n -2.36%<\/bg-quote>
\n and Verano Holdings Corp.
\n VRNOF,
\n -1.08%<\/bg-quote>.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

The move by Curaleaf comes as the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration reviews the Schedule I status of cannabis after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommended a Schedule III classification, which would sanction cannabis for medical use. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s not clear if the new categorization will satisfy listing requirements for the NYSE and the Nasdaq.<\/p>\n

In March, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said the department was working on a position statement that will be \u201cvery close to what was done\u201d in the Cole memorandum, which was a policy put in place in 2013 that limited the role of federal law-enforcement regarding cannabis. <\/p>\n

Cannabis stocks got a lift earlier this week when the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs approved the Secure and Fair Enforcement Regulation Banking Act, now known as the SAFER Banking Act of 2023.<\/p>\n
