Market overview
A market being reshaped by regulation
- Since 28 April 2026 the US Drug Enforcement Administration lists medical cannabis from state-licensed programmes and FDA-approved cannabis products in Schedule III. Licensed medical operators are therefore no longer subject to Section 280E of the US tax code. A decision on full rescheduling will be made after the hearing held in summer 2026.
- 24 US states and Washington, D.C. allow adult use of cannabis; 41 states allow medical use.
- Germany legalised possession and home cultivation for adults on 1 April 2024. Imports of medical cannabis rose to 201 tonnes in 2025, almost three times the previous year.
- In April 2026 Canadian producer Organigram acquired Berlin-based Sanity Group for up to 250 million euros, the largest acquisition in the German market to date.
