YTD Capital Raises by Industry Sector 2024 vs. 2023
YTD Sector Capital Raises by Debt & Equity
The Cultivation & Retail sector continues to lead all sectors for capital raises as this represents the buildout and scaling of the infrastructure required to grow, manufacture and dispense cannabis.
The AgTech sector is showing the fastest increase in capital raised as cultivators have to invest in advanced AgTech technologies to drive economies of scale and lower production costs.
The Hemp sector is showing the largest decline in investment activity, continuing the pounding the sector has been taking as more states regulate and/or ban intoxicating hemp products.
Debt financings have grown at impressive levels this year, particularly for public MSOs that have used debt to refinance and restructure existing debt.
