FLUENT is divesting its Pennsylvania operations in a move aimed at strengthening its balance sheet, reducing leverage, and sharpening its strategic focus on core growth markets. According to Interim Chief Executive Officer Dave Vautrin, the decision comes at a pivotal time for the U.S. cannabis industry, as recent federal developments signal a shift toward a more rational regulatory environment. The company believes that simplifying its business and concentrating resources on its most strategic markets will support long-term value creation. Moelis & Company LLC acted as financial advisor, with Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP and Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP providing legal counsel to FLUENT. Eversheds Sutherland LLP advised HIVE Holdings, Inc. on the transaction.
