Cannabis is having a moment. Americans now reach for weed daily more often than they reach for a drink, and THC seltzers sit on shelves at Total Wine and Target like they belong there. RYTHM, the Nasdaq-listed holding company behind a stack of those brands, just had a very nice quarter on the bet that the shelf ****** e is permanent. Congress has other ideas.
RYTHM surged 23% Tuesday after a strong second-quarter print and a possible federal reprieve on the hemp-derived THC ban set to take effect in November. The company posted $1.2 million in net income on $23 million in revenue, up 73% from the prior quarter. The stock is up about 56% over the last 6 months.
The consumer has spoken, and the consumer wants easy access to THC. Daily cannabis use now outpaces daily drinking, per new federal survey data. Many lawmakers, especially Republicans, think they know better.
Let's do some clarity: THC is the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, which remains federally illegal in the U.S., though the DEA just wrapped hearings weighing whether to move recreational cannabis from the most restrictive Schedule I to the far less restrictive Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act. The 2018 Farm Bill legalized THC derived from "hemp," a category Congress invented in statute with no grounding in chemistry. That let products like THC seltzers and gummies flourish in bodegas and grocery stores near you. It's effectively the same product as state-legal dispensary weed with a different retail channel.
