Organigram Global Announces CEO Succession Plan
Since joining Organigram as CEO in September 2021, Ms. Goldenberg successfully led the organization's growth and transformation from a cannabis company with $80M in net revenue to becoming the market share leader in Canada with over $250M in net revenue. Under her leadership, the Company completed an expansion of its facility in Moncton, New Brunswick, doubling cultivation capacity, as well as three strategic acquisitions that led to the Company's #1 share positions in vapes, hash and pre-rolls in Canada. In addition, Ms. Goldenberg oversaw Organigram's international expansion with export sales into Germany, UK and Australia. The latest acquisition of Collective Project, announced on April 1, 2025, signaled the first revenue recognized by Organigram from the U.S. market.
This announcement follows the Company's second quarter fiscal year 2025 results, which were issued on May 12, 2025, and highlight the progress that has been made in enhancing Organigram's financial performance. This includes realizing a 74% increase in net revenue year-over-year and delivering improvement across key financial metrics.
'After five incredible years in the cannabis industry, serving as CEO of Supreme Cannabis Company and Organigram Global, I have decided it is time to move on to my next chapter,' said Ms. Goldenberg. 'Reflecting on my journey, I am extremely proud of what has been accomplished in this nascent industry. The challenges we faced and the successes we achieved underscore the immense potential that still lies ahead for the cannabis industry.'
'On behalf of the Board, I express our gratitude to Beena for her exceptional leadership and commitment to Organigram. Beena has been instrumental in positioning Organigram as a market leader in Canada and poised for global expansion,' said Peter Amirault, Chairman of the Board, Organigram. 'She has created an excellent base for both domestic and international growth for Organigram. And therefore, the Company is well positioned to take advantage of this significant opportunity. The Board remains confident in the Company's strategic direction as well as its leadership team, and we are committed to appointing a new CEO who will continue to drive our vision forward, ensuring that the Company remains at the forefront of cannabis innovation and growth.'
The Board is in the process of initiating a comprehensive CEO selection process focused on identifying a candidate with the right mix of skills and experience to lead the Company in its next chapter of growth.
'It has been an honour to lead Organigram Global through this critical chapter in our evolution, and I am grateful to have had the privilege of working with so many talented and passionate people who have played a significant role in our collective growth and achievements,' said Ms. Goldenberg. 'Over the next four months I will remain focused on driving Organigram growth and profitability while supporting the smooth onboarding of a new CEO to lead the Company forward in its next phase of growth.'

Why investors are eyeing ether as the next big crypto treasury play
As the world's second-largest crypto, ethereum has long operated bitcoin's shadow. Now, it's getting a moment in the spotlight as companies look for new crypto treasury plays beyond the world's largest token. Ether treasury companies are now adding the coin to their balance sheets as a strategic reserve asset. Crypto mining company BitMine Immersion Technologies announced plans to add ethereum to its balance sheet in late June. It's blown past its initial commitment of $250 million and now holds over $1 billion in Ethereum. Investors are loving it. Venture capitalist Peter Thiel, and more recently, Cathie Wood of Ark Invest, have invested in BitMine. The stock is up over 480% year-to-date despite not being profitable. Earlier this week, the ether investment vehicle The Ether Machine announced plans to go public on the Nasdaq via merger with SPAC Dynamix Corporation. The company plans to manage over 400,000 ether, or roughly $1.5 billion. An ethereum arms race is brewing, and a handful of other companies have also adopted an ethereum treasury strategy recently, such as SharpLink Gaming, Bit Digital, and GameSquare. Each of these companies has over $100 million of Ethereum reserves. Tom Lee, Fundstrat co-founder and BitMine chairman, announced a goal of acquiring and staking 5% of the overall ethereum supply. These companies are following Michael Saylor 's Strategy playbook of accumulating digital assets, raising new capital by issuing debt or equity, and then using proceeds to buy more crypto. The recent focus on ethereum among companies looking to replicate Strategy's success is partly to do with the heightened focus on stablecoins. Donald Trump signed the GENIUS Act this month, boosting government support for the fiat-backed cryptos. Ethereum, whose blockchain underpins the top stablecoins, is up 65% in a month, with bullishness rising for the crypto and its proximity to the stablecoin ecosystem. On Monday, the cofounder of The Ether Machine also clarified his firm's strategy, which differentiates from some other crypto treasuries. "We are not a buy-and-hold treasury," Andrew Keys said on Bloomberg Technology on Monday. "We are an institutional vehicle that is generating risk-adjusted returns actively managing ether." The Ether Machine plans to generate yield by staking ether, meaning that the company will commit the ether as collateral to validate transactions on the Ethereum network. "With bitcoin, you have one asset that is moving on that ledger," Keys said. "With Ethereum, you can have and tokenize infinite assets such as stablecoins, real world assets like parcels of land, stocks, bonds, derivatives." The attention to ethereum doesn't mean investors are forgetting about bitcoin, though. Trump Media and Technology Group announced a $2 billion bitcoin purchase on Monday as it seeks to build out its crypto treasury strategy. However, Ethereum has been a hot commodity as stablecoins become more widespread this year thanks to crypto-friendly legislation. Yet, there are still skeptics. Dave Wiesberger, co-founder of crypto algorithmic trading platform CoinRoutes, doesn't think the ethereum enthusiasm and the wave of treasury strategies are entirely justified. "I don't think there's any difference between that and companies buying stocks of other companies, or buying emerging market debt when they think emerging market debt is cheap," Wiesberger told Business Insider. "It's just capitalizing on public imagination to try to get a premium to your stock price." "Is the asset underlying that company one that has significant appreciation potential?" Wiesberger added. To Keys and other ethereum bulls, the answer is yes. "We believe that ethereum is in the earliest innings of the next generation of the internet," Keys said.

FFAI Marks Fourth Anniversary of Nasdaq Listing with Commitment to Accelerate FX Product Execution and Delivery, Uphold 'Stockholders First' Principle, and Continue the Counterattack Against Potential Illegal Short Selling
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) ('Faraday Future', 'FF' or the 'Company'), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, today announced the celebration of its fourth anniversary as a publicly listed company on Nasdaq. Marking this milestone, the Company reaffirmed its commitment to driving breakthroughs in both its business and capital fundamentals. FF also pledged to accelerate the execution and delivery of products under its second brand, FX, while advancing its dual-brand strategy. Upholding its 'Stockholders First' philosophy, the Company remains focused on delivering greater value to stockholders by expediting efforts to win the Counterattack Against Potential Illegal Short Selling and maximizing stockholder interests. Faraday Future Marks Fourth Anniversary with a Reversal in Both Business and Capital Fundamentals Since its successful listing in 2021, FF has remained focused on disruptive innovation in the intelligent electric mobility ecosystem and is now advancing from the AIEV era to the next-generation EAI EV era. Following the return of the founding team—including Founder YT Jia—in April this year, the Company has implemented a comprehensive 'Ten Punch Combo' transformations, achieving a qualitative leap across key areas such as product development and delivery, manufacturing, supply chain, brand building, organizational governance, and system and capability buildup. On July 17, FF successfully unveiled in Downtown Los Angeles the FX Super One, alongside the Super EAI F.A.C.E. (Front AI Communication Ecosystem), and the FF EAI Embodied AI Agent 6x4 Architecture. The debut of the FX Super One made a striking market impression, fundamentally redefining the traditional luxury executive mobility experience long dominated by models such as the Cadillac Escalade. Compared to where the Company stood at the time of its IPO four years ago, FF has now achieved a dual turnaround in both business and capital fundamentals. The Company has established a strategic framework centered around dual home markets and dual DNA in U.S. and China, while also deploying its 'Third Pole' in Middle East. Through consistent delivery on its promises, more transparent communications, and a proactive and pragmatic corporate culture, FF has regained a vote of confidence from its stockholders. Since its debut, the FX Super One has attracted significant market attention, with over 10,000 paid pre-orders from both B2B and B2C customers. FF continues to refine its Co-Creation Ecosystem Online Direct Sales system, expand its multi-channel sales strategy, and elevate brand influence. The Company's 'B2B2C' co-creation ecosystem model now covers five core sectors: FX Par (Partners), car rental companies, live e-commerce MCN agencies, real estate brokerages, and home office industry. On July 21, the Company also announced a strategic partnership with HabitTrade, a global multi-market brokerage and digital asset infrastructure platform. Through this collaboration, FF seeks to build an integrated ecosystem combining EAI mobility, Web3, blockchain technology, crypto, and stablecoin applications. This initiative aims to bridge Web2 and Web3, connect on-chain and off-chain value flows, and expand the convergence between the real and virtual economies—creating new value for both users and the industry. In addition, the Company recently completed a new round of financing commitment totaling $105 million, which is expected to nearly cover the launch requirements of the FX Super One. Global institutional investor BlackRock has increased its holdings in FFAI for four consecutive quarters, reaching 5.39 million shares, signaling growing recognition and confidence among top-tier capital in the outlook of both FF and FX. Initial Victory in the Counterattack Against Potential Illegal Short Selling; FF Reaffirms Its Commitment to Protecting Stockholder Interests Since the appointment of Founder YT Jia as FF's Co-CEO, the Company has achieved initial success in its efforts to combat potential illegal short selling. The Company previously issued a public update on the identified illegal short selling and online market manipulation targeting FFAI, noting that certain individuals and online accounts involved had issued public apologies and taken down all content suspected of contributing to such manipulative activities. Recently, the Company identified additional indications of potential illegal short selling and the deliberate dissemination of false or misleading information aimed at disrupting the market. FF has issued a legal letter to the parties involved and reserves all rights to pursue legal remedies. On the occasion of its fourth anniversary as a publicly listed company, FF reaffirms its unwavering commitment to the 'Stockholders First' philosophy and its effort to continue to closely monitor the market for signs of potential illegal short selling and will take all necessary legal and regulatory actions to defend the rights and interests of its stockholders. Any attempts to undermine FFAI or harm investor interests will be met with appropriate consequences. FF also calls on regulators and the broader investment community to remain vigilant against such bad-faith efforts to distort capital markets. The Company urges collective resistance against the malicious attacks and defamatory campaigns launched by irresponsible entities targeting innovative enterprises.
