Vireo Growth Inc. to Acquire Planet 13 Holdings Inc.

The deal would add 36 dispensaries and 2.3 million square feet of expandable cultivation and production facilities, Vireo said.

  • On Monday, July 27, 2026, Vireo Growth Inc. announced a definitive merger agreement to acquire Planet 13 Holdings Inc. in an all-stock transaction combining two vertically integrated cannabis companies across Nevada, Florida, and Illinois.
  • Vireo CEO John Mazarakis said the acquisition represents a "significant milestone" for the company's growth strategy, deepening Vireo's presence in limited-license markets to enhance operating scale and drive long-term shareholder value.
  • The deal offers Planet 13 shareholders a 24% premium over the July 24, 2026, closing price, converting shares at 0.015383618 of a Vireo subordinate voting share while adding 36 dispensaries and 2.3 million square feet of expandable cultivation capacity in Nevada.
  • Vireo plans to integrate operations with a focus on optimizing efficiency, product quality, and customer experience, with Planet 13 Co-CEOs Larry Scheffler and Bob Groesbeck calling Vireo the "right long-term steward" for the business.
  • Upon closing, Planet 13 shares are expected to be delisted from the Canadian Securities Exchange and withdrawn from the OTCQX Market. Vireo expects to operate approximately 265 dispensaries across 15 states, positioning it as the largest U.S. cannabis operator by dispensary count.
