"Becoming a publicly-traded company is an important milestone for our business and we are very proud to launch today on NEO. Access to the North American capital markets will allow us to pursue and grow our robust acquisition pipeline of cultivation, manufacturing, processing and high value retail cannabis and hemp assets in the United States, while also explore new markets across the US and Europe," said Erich Mauff, Co-founder, President and Board Director, Jushi Holdings Inc.
"We chose to go-public on NEO because it is a progressive and visionary senior exchange, which supports the cannabis sector and its tremendous global growth potential. By listing on a senior exchange, we are subject to regulatory and compliance standards that provides transparency for our investors. NEO's streamlined, disclosure-based approach to listing has allowed us to walk a clear path toward today's launch and stay focused on what matters - setting up our company for public success and driving our ability to generate long-term shareholder value," continued Mauff.
Investors can trade shares of Jushi through their usual investment channels, including discount brokerage platforms and full-service dealers.
"We are thrilled to welcome Jushi as the tenth and newest company to list on NEO and we congratulate them on their public market debut," said Jos Schmitt, President and CEO, NEO. "This best-in-class management team, including Jim Cacioppo, a successful hedge fund manager, Erich Mauff, former Vice Chairman of Corporate Finance at Deutsche Bank, Max Cohen, founder and CEO of The Clinic, a cannabis industry pioneer and Jon Barack, a public and private cannabis investor, is bringing maturity and professionalism to the global cannabis sector. Their eagerness to partner with NEO is a testament to what we bring to the market. High quality management in the cannabis industry meets a high-quality stock exchange. It's a win-win."
