Forward guidance
The company is focused on expanding VLN® marketing and distribution, securing regulatory clearances, and pursuing partnerships for VLN® tobacco and IP across multiple countries.
Tailwinds
- Continuing to explore launch opportunities in additional markets in Asia and Europe with limited regulatory barriers while also leveraging VLN®’s MRTP authorization from FDA toward seeking approval in markets with higher regulatory barriers.
- 22nd Century Group continued its support of FDA’s proposed ban on menthol as a characterizing flavor in conventional nicotine cigarettes.
- FDA’s proposed menthol cigarette ban could leave VLN® Menthol King as the only combustible menthol cigarette on the market, providing a critical off-ramp to help current menthol smokers to smoke less.
- Completing delivery of a purchase order for 3 million additional variable nicotine research cigarettes, including menthol, for use in studies underpinning FDA’s proposed menthol ban and reduced nicotine content proposals.
- Contracted the largest VLN® tobacco planting to date to support expansion in both the U.S. and international markets.
