Get NotifiedDebut Issue: The State of Cannabis 2026
The first Green Forecast sets the baseline. Before we can forecast where the industry is going, we need an honest, data-driven accounting of where it is. This issue delivers that assessment across every dimension of the cannabis market.
What This Issue Covers
Special Theme: The State of Cannabis 2026
A comprehensive deep dive into the global cannabis industry’s current state — the real numbers behind the headlines. Market sizing with actual revenue figures (not projections), the profitability crisis, the capital desert, and what the contraction means for the next five years.
Global Market Rankings
Every major cannabis market ranked by real revenue. U.S. state-by-state breakdown, Canadian provincial data, European market assessments (Germany, Netherlands), and the emerging international landscape. Our tier classification system categorizes each market as Growing, Maturing, Compressing, or Contracting.
The Brand Tracker
The top publicly traded cannabis companies ranked by revenue, with data extracted directly from SEC and Canadian securities filings. Store counts, revenue per store, margin trends, geographic exposure, and M&A activity for Q1 2026.
Consumption Trends
How consumers are buying cannabis in 2026. The pre-roll surge, the beverage emergence, minor cannabinoid adoption (CBN, CBG, THCV), flower’s declining share, and the formats gaining traction with new consumers.
Breakthroughs & Regulatory Tracker
The current status of DEA rescheduling, SAFE Banking, state-level developments, and the scientific research pipeline. What happened in Q1 2026 and what it means for the market.
