Exchange-initiated listing reflects Curaleaf's growing market maturity, and expands hedging, income, and directional strategies available to investors
STAMFORD, Conn., July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. (TSX: CURA) (OTCQX: CURLF) ("Curaleaf" or the "Company"), a leading international provider of consumer cannabis products, today announced that exchange-traded options on the Company's subordinate voting shares (the "Shares") are expected to commence trading on the Montréal Exchange (the "MX"), Canada's derivatives exchange, on July 13, 2026, under the symbol "CURA".
"The listing of exchange-traded options on the Montréal Exchange reflects Curaleaf's market capitalization, trading depth and growing institutional relevance," said Boris Jordan, Chairman and CEO of Curaleaf. "Because the listing decision rests solely with the Exchange, we view it as independent recognition of the progress we have made as a public company. Listed options will give investors greater flexibility to hedge risk, pursue income strategies and express a view on Curaleaf's long-term growth--the same tools commonly available to investors in mature equity markets. We welcome the additional flexibility this listing provides investors."
The Company believes the listing will also increase liquidity and improve price discovery by attracting options traders, market makers and institutional investors whose strategies incorporate derivatives.
The decision to list options on a particular security is made solely by the Montréal Exchange based on its own eligibility criteria, including factors such as market capitalization, share price, and trading activity. The Company did not apply for, and does not control, the listing of options on its Shares.
Options listed by the MX are contracts between market participants and are not issued by the Company. The listing of options does not involve the issuance of any Shares or other securities of the Company, has no dilutive effect on shareholders, and does not result in any proceeds to the Company. No action is required by shareholders in connection with the commencement of options trading.
Investors seeking information about options on the Company's Shares, including available series, strike prices, and expiry dates, should consult the Montréal Exchange website at www.m-x.ca or contact their investment advisor. Options involve risk and are not suitable for all investors. Investors should read the disclosure document titled "The Characteristics and Risks of Listed Canadian Options," available from the Canadian Derivatives Clearing Corporation, before trading options.
