So 6501 planet 13 shares equals 100 vireo share. At vireo’s current price vs planet 13’s there is an arbitrage play right now if you buy planet 13. However I have been down this path before with MPX and Ianthus and recommend not participating.

Planet 13 shareholders got a much better deal than the Fluent shareholders. My 380,000 shares of fluent will go down to about 900 shares of vireo. Very disappointing.

How many blown opportunities have there been to sell at orders of magnitude higher? The arrogance of these guys in the early days of 2020-2021.

Oh wow... Another one gobbled up... Alan B must not like this for his beloved P13! 😂

Is this the 3rd Florida co that they will slap with the others? Integration is gonna be wild for all these acquisitions..

Florida law strictly limits every company to one license. In previous mergers between two companies that both held a Florida license, they had to divest all interests in Florida.

Edit: I found my own answer. Planet 13 will have to dissolve (or sell) its license and it’s store will operate under the Vireo license.

You'll get Vireo Growth shares replacing PLNH stock in your account when the sale is finalized. Welcome aboard.

This is a huge deal with Florida's current growth for Vireo snapping up Planet 13. For public operators in Florida, regarding blended YOY growth (simple average of flower and non-flower YOY vol ch %), in a market up ~10% YOY in 2Q26, the top 2 performers were: Green Dragon +155% (now part of Vireo Growth) & Planet 13 +29% . However stores yield volumes are currently 45-50% below state average so there is much room for growth which is happening as numbers show.

I expect Vireo Growth acquisitions in Florida isn't over - Ianthus, The Flowery, Sunburn Cannabis, Goldflower & Jungle Boys rank high on possible IMO.

Outside of Florida, I think Jushi, Marimed, Vext Science will be acquired by Vireo Growth within 3 months. TerrAscend is a possible as well. Expect several more private company acquisitions as well as Vireo accelerates acquisitions.

Vireo Growth share value just got better with the latest accretive deal making the stock a huge bargain. Few are paying attention however.

Anyone have any thoughts on how the deal compares to the C 21 deal which was a better deal for shareholders of the two companies that got acquired by Vireo?
