##### Published on November 13, 2024

### CRB Monitor Database: Charting Growth

#### Tier 1B cannabis-related businesses, which are companies that have a financial or controlling interest in plant-touching Tier 1A businesses, jumped by 120 the week of Nov. 2. With a small slip of 27 Tier 1A businesses, total Tier 1 companies increased to 90,599. The total is a 3% increase from last quarter and 14% increase from last year.

#### Tier 1 Cannabis-Related Business Counts

Weekly Summary: 86,160 1A CRBs + 4,439 1B CRBs = 90,599 total

### 1A CRBs

Tier 1A defined: Businesses in this tier literally touch the cannabis plant at some point along the supply chain from "seed to sale," and are generally licensed by a government agency or regulator. Effectively all of their actual or expected revenue is derived from the cultivation, production, testing or sale of cannabis. *

### 1B CRBs

Tier 1B defined: Businesses that have a financial or controlling interest in a Tier 1A CRB. CRB Monitor generally considers 1B businesses as seemingly unrelated businesses highlighted as red flags by FinCEN in its marijuana banking guidance and are similar in nature to individual beneficial owners. *
