Greenlane

Greenlane Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: GNLN) announced layoffs, cost-cutting efforts, and leadership changes in order to become profitable. The company also provided preliminary financial results for its fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2021. Greenlane had been flying high on sales of JUUL flavored vape pens. However, problems arose over the excessive teen usage of the candy-flavored vapes and regulations caused the market to pull back heavily. That was followed by the vape crisis in the cannabis market when illicit market vapes began causing health problems. At that point, Greenlane joined forces with cannabis packaging company KushCo Holdings, which in turn made the move to cut out its small customers and only focus on the big ones that had no trouble paying the bills.
