Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is reportedly set to lay off 693 employees at its Nevada facilities as part of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38244436/breaking-tesla-said-to-be-laying-off-over-14-000-employees">10% layoff</a> announced by the company earlier this month to reduce costs amid falling EV sales and margins. 
What Happened: Tesla has filed a notice with the Nevada Department of Employment, Training, and Rehabilitation, indicating its intention to lay off 693 employees at its Sparks, Nevada facilities, Reuters reported.
Tesla did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga's</a> request for comment. 
Tesla announced its plan to lay off about 14,000 employees, or 10% of its global workforce, on April 15. 
"About every five years, we need to reorganize and streamline the company for the next phase of growth," company CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;said on X&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38263933/elon-musk-re-enters-wartime-ceo-mode-tesla-chief-explains-necessity-of-massive-job-cuts-amid-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">about the sweeping job cuts</a>.
Mapping The Layoffs Worldwide: According to WARN notices filed with the states of Texas and California, Tesla will eliminate 3,332 jobs in California and 2,688 positions in Texas, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38452751/teslas-biggest-layoffs-mapped-where-has-ev-giant-cut-most-jobs">totaling over 6,000 positions, </a>starting June 14.
The company also intends to cut around 400 jobs in Germany and 285 employees in Buffalo, New York, starting July 15.
Tesla&#8217;s Disappointing Results: Tesla's layoffs reflect the broader challenges facing the company, including declining sales and pricing pressures. For the first quarter, the EV giant reported revenue of $21.3 billion, down from the $23.33 billion reported a year earlier. This is the first time the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38398667/tesla-bulls-praise-musks-q1-earnings-call-see-ev-giant-on-collision-course-with-ube">company&#8217;s quarterly revenue has fallen</a> since the pandemic in 2020. 
Tesla's net profit stood at $1.13 billion, falling 55% from $2.51 billion a year earlier. 
CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk, however, managed to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38402856/tesla-bull-says-elon-musk-delivered-rip-the-band-aid-off-q1-but-cautions-this-could" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">assuage some investor concerns</a> by promising a faster rollout of cheaper EV models.

Tesla To Cut 693 Jobs In Nevada Amid Global Workforce Reduction: Government Notice

Elon Musk announced the suspension of ad revenue sharing for certain creators on his social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35153897/elon-musks-plans-to-weed-out-bots-from-x-enables-verified-user-only-replies-option-what-it-means">due to bot spamming</a>.
What Happened: Musk took to X to reveal that the ad revenue sharing for some creators will be paused. This decision comes as a response to an ongoing investigation into the bot problem on his social media platform.
"Ad revenue sharing will be paused for some creators pending investigation into use of bots to spam likes, replies, DMs, etc."

The billionaire entrepreneur emphasized the purpose of creator payouts. However, he noted that some users are exploiting the system to generate ad revenue, which is &#8220;obviously not ok.&#8221;

Elon Musk Says Ad Revenue Sharing Will Be 'Paused' For Some X Creators Over Pending Investigation Into 'Use Of Bots To Spam Likes, Replies'

The U.S. and China have agreed to hold their first high-level talks on artificial intelligence (AI). This was confirmed by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken during a press conference in Beijing on Friday. The two nations will discuss potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38310022/former-openai-researcher-who-predicted-theres-a-50-chance-ai-could-kill-us-all-is-now-heading-us-ai">risks and safety concerns</a> associated with AI.
What Happened: The upcoming U.S.-China intergovernmental dialogue on AI was announced by Blinken during his discussions with Chinese officials in Beijing. The talks are scheduled to take place in the &#8220;coming weeks,&#8221; <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/04/26/us-china-to-hold-first-ai-talks-tiktok-stalemate-ongoing.html">reported</a> CNBC.
While the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38460718/elon-musk-weighs-in-after-x-user-says-banning-tiktok-sets-a-precedent-that-government-can-ban-any-ap">future of TikTok</a>, owned by Chinese internet technology company ByteDance Ltd., remains uncertain due to U.S. restrictions, Blinken mentioned that the topic "did not come up&#8221; during the talks.
China&#8217;s foreign ministry confirmed the AI talks and outlined a broader five-point agreement between the two nations. This includes efforts to stabilize and develop U.S.-China relations, expand cultural exchanges, and continue consultations on international and regional issues.

The upcoming AI talks could provide insight into the future of this technological competition, as well as the potential for cooperation in this area.
U.S. has currently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/04/38140039/us-embargo-on-nvidia-stings-hard-chinas-ai-development-lags-peers-alibabas-joe-tsai-reveals">imposed restrictions</a> on the export of advanced AI chips to China, impacting companies like Nvidia Corp.

US, China Set To Hold First High-Level Talks On AI, Blinken Confirms: Tiktok 'Did Not Come Up' In Discussion

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has started sending <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36039263/did-tesla-overpromise-and-underdeliver-with-the-cybertruck">Cybertruck delivery invites</a> to long-term shareholders who opted for early delivery, company executive Martin Viecha said on Friday.

Tesla announced an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37610567/tesla-offers-early-cybertruck-delivery-to-long-term-shareholders-how-to-check-if-you-qualify">exclusive offer to its long-term shareholders</a>, allowing them to receive early delivery of the Foundation Series Cybertruck, in March. The criteria was that the Cybertruck reservation be made in the shareholder&#8217;s name before March 1. Each participant must further provide brokerage statements showing that they owned Tesla shares on Feb. 28, 2021, and owned at least 500 Tesla shares on Feb. 29. The more recent brokerage statement must also show that the participant still owns at least half of the shares they owned as of Feb. 28, 2021, the company said. 
Viecha on Friday pegged the delay in sending out the first batch of invites to the statement verification process. The company had to verify statements from &#8220;so many shareholders,&#8221; he said, hinting that several shareholders opted into the offer. 
Cybertruck Delivery Timeline: Tesla aims to deliver 250,000 units of the Cybertruck in a year <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35322048/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-details-enormous-challenges-in-reaching-volume-production-for-cybertruck-we-dug">starting in 2025. </a>
During Tesla's third-quarter earnings call in October, a month before the Cybertruck&#8217;s delivery event,&nbsp;Musk had said that over a million people had already reserved the vehicle. 
In January, Tesla Supply Chain Vice President&nbsp;Karn Budhiraj&nbsp;said&nbsp;that the conversion of reservations to orders for the vehicle has been &#8220;very encouraging&#8221; and that the company has been receiving new orders since the vehicle's launch, implying that those lower below the waitlist might have to wait for their vehicles until 2026 or later<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37174949/want-your-cybertruck-delivered-faster-tesla-offers-priority-option-if-you-have-these-many-referral-c"> without these offers.</a>

Jim Cramer Weighs In Ahead Of Apple, Amazon, Eli Lilly Earnings: 'We Have To Run Such A Ridiculous Gauntlet Next Week'

EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has hiked the price of its new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38401202/teslas-new-53k-model-3-performance-eligible-for-full-tax-credits-but-leasing-long-range-might-be-che">Model 3 Performance </a>in the U.S. by $1000, merely days after its launch. 
What Happened: The Model 3 Performance is now priced at $53,990 on Tesla&#8217;s website. The company launched the new variant only on Tuesday, ahead of its first-quarter results. 
The Model 3 Performance, unlike the other two versions of Model 3, is eligible for a $7,500 federal EV tax credit, taking the effective price for eligible buyers down to $46,490, below even the Long Range version of the vehicle. 
The Performance version has a range of 296 miles and a top speed of 163 mph. On ordering the vehicle now, customers can take delivery by June. 
Why It Matters: In January, Tesla introduced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36570546/you-can-finally-order-teslas-new-model-3-in-america-heres-its-starting-price">updated Model 3</a> in the U.S., initially offering two variants: rear-wheel drive and long-range. The Performance variant was conspicuously absent from the listings. However, a company executive affirmed its forthcoming availability.
Tesla slashed prices on all trim levels of the Model Y, S, and X in the U.S. by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/04/38345362/tesla-slashes-model-s-x-and-y-prices-in-us-by-2-000-in-late-friday-move-as-volume-growth-turns-n">$2,000 earlier this month. </a>It spared the refreshed Model 3 then. 
Price Action:&nbsp;Tesla stock closed down 1.11% at $168.28 per share on Friday, according to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro.</a>&nbsp;The stock is down 32.26% year-to-date.

Tesla Increases Price Of Model 3 Performance By $1K In US Days After Launch

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has reportedly resumed discussions with Microsoft Corp.-backed (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) OpenAI about incorporating the startup&#8217;s AI technology into the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37932418/apple-reportedly-readying-ios-18-with-home-screen-redesign-and-ai-upgrades">upcoming iPhone features</a>.
What Happened: Apple is in talks with OpenAI to potentially integrate its technology into the iPhone&#8217;s next operating system, iOS 18, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-26/apple-intensifies-talks-with-openai-for-iphone-generative-ai-features">Bloomberg</a> reported.
The companies are discussing the terms of the agreement and how OpenAI&#8217;s features would be integrated into iOS 18.
This development marks the reopening of discussions between the two companies. While Apple had initially collaborated with OpenAI earlier this year, there has been minimal engagement between the two entities since then.

Apple has not yet made a final decision on its partners and there is no guarantee that a deal will be reached. The company may ultimately strike a deal with both OpenAI and Google or choose another provider altogether.
Apple and OpenAI did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga's</a> request for comment.

The iOS 18 update is set to include several new features based on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37819063/apples-in-house-ai-features-for-ios-18-are-codenamed-project-graymatter-separate-from-googles-ge">Apple&#8217;s in-house large language model AI model</a>. The company is also seeking partners to power a chatbot-like feature similar to OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT.

The potential deal with OpenAI and Google could also significantly impact the iPhone&#8217;s AI capabilities.

Goodbye Google Gemini? Apple In Talks With Microsoft-Backed OpenAI For iPhone AI Features: Report

Tesla, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;has placed high hopes on its&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/38012152/tesla-rolls-out-30-day-free-trial-for-its-full-self-driving-software" rel="noreferrer noopener">Full Self-Driving</a>&nbsp;(FSD) software. However, the electric vehicle giant&#8217;s autonomous driving technology continues to be controversial. On Thursday, a tech entrepreneur made some shocking claims that further clouded the outlook for the technology.
Red Flags: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/23/11/35841525/elon-musk-under-fire-facebook-co-founder-calls-for-resignation-from-tesla-amid-antisemitism-controve">Dustin Moskovitz</a>, co-founder of&nbsp;Facebook&nbsp;(now&nbsp;Meta), expressed strong concerns about Tesla in a post on Meta&#8217;s&nbsp;Threads&nbsp;messaging app. He compared Tesla&#8217;s situation to the infamous collapse of energy company&nbsp;Enron, stating, &#8220;I know I sound crazy to most people who don&#8217;t follow $TSLA closely but at this&nbsp;point&nbsp;it&nbsp;really&nbsp;needs to be said. This is Enron now, folks.&#8221;
Enron executives systematically inflated their company&#8217;s financial performance for years, hiding billions in debt through a web of complex financial instruments. It eventually came crashing down, leading to one of the biggest corporate scandals in U.S. history.
Moskovitz, who also serves as CEO of work-management platform&nbsp;Asana, suggested that Tesla could face legal repercussions. &#8220;People are going to jail at the end,&#8221; he warned.

Skeletons In The Closet?&nbsp;Moskovitz accused Tesla of presenting misleading data about FSD capabilities. &#8220;The data doesn&#8217;t say what they claim it says, even when they make it up,&#8221; he stated. He further alleged that Tesla has &#8220;committed consumer fraud on a massive scale&#8221; through misrepresentations about FSD, vehicle ranges, and potentially even odometer readings.
There have been social media reports of Tesla vehicles displaying inaccurate odometer readings, potentially affecting range calculations. Moskovitz shared a social media post from a user who claimed a 20% discrepancy between their Tesla Model Y&#8217;s odometer and a&nbsp;Lexus RZ.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Is Tesla inflating odometer to show more range, ding lessors with over miles and duck repairs under warranty? As I return my leased Model Y I noticed the odometer is off by 20% vs my Lexus RZ. Turns out other Tesla owners have a similar concern. Is Musk gaming the Tesla odometer? <a href="https://t.co/jM8Pmf6U1D">https://t.co/jM8Pmf6U1D</a> <a href="https://t.co/h4BB0iiar6">pic.twitter.com/h4BB0iiar6</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Tesla, however, has not responded to any of these allegations.
Questionable FSD Progress:&nbsp;To support his claims of fraudulent data, Moskovitz shared a Bloomberg chart on Tesla&#8217;s software sales revenue. &#8220;Tesla makes up more in revenue straight from their imagination every single quarter than my company does selling actual products in a year,&#8221; he quipped.
Moskovitz also questioned the recent update to Tesla&#8217;s FSD progress graph. He pointed out that Tesla AI celebrated achieving 1 billion FSD miles on April 3, shortly after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37926548/elon-musk-rolls-out-free-full-self-driving-trial-to-us-tesla-owners-but-only-for-a-month">the free FSD trial</a> began on March 25.&nbsp;
&#8220;The new graph is humorously ambiguous&nbsp;wrt&nbsp;dates. Is &#8216;March 2024&#8217; the 1st? The 31st? Why is the inflection &#x2A;after&#x2A; the 1B miles milestone in the new graph?&#8221; Moskowitz said. &#8220;I guess trying to avoid the obvious conclusion the inflection comes from the trial rollout.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/26151642/Screenshot-2024-04-27-at-12.46.34%E2%80%AFAM-702x1024.png" alt="" class="wp-image-311493" /></figure>

The company is scheduled to unveil its&nbsp;robotaxi&nbsp;program in August. However, concerns persist regarding the technology&#8217;s&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35125361/exclusive-dawn-projects-dan-odowd-warns-teslas-terrible-fsd-could-be-banned-blames-musk-for-coordina" rel="noreferrer noopener">level of autonomy, safety</a>, and regulatory approval.

This adds pressure, especially with Tesla&#8217;s core electric vehicle business facing industry-wide challenges.
Tesla&#8217;s stock had been on a downward trend since the second half of 2023 but has shown some recovery since its first-quarter earnings announcement. The company&#8217;s confirmation of a low-cost model launch has offered investors a glimmer of hope.

Tesla 'Is Now Enron, Folks:' Facebook Co-Founder Claims Musk's EV Giant Is Cooking Up Some FSD Data

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk has responded to the allegations of &#8220;consumer fraud on a massive scale&#8221; made by Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz.
What Happened: On Thursday, Moskovitz, the CEO and co-founder of software company Asana, took to Threads and accused Tesla of fraudulent practices. He likened the EV giant&#8217;s actions to those of Enron, a corporation that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/21/12/24405944/this-day-in-market-history-enron-declares-bankruptcy">went bankrupt in 2001</a> due to a massive accounting fraud.
&#8220;I know I sound crazy to most people who don&#8217;t follow $TSLA closely but at this point it really needs to be said. This is Enron now, folks,&#8221; he said, adding, &#8220;It may keep going, but people are going to jail at the end.&#8221;
He went on to say, &#8220;Tesla has committed consumer fraud on a massive scale, from lying about FSD, ranges, and (recently, unconfirmed!) even inflating odometers,&#8221; adding, &#8220;Many times now, also securities fraud.&#8221;

Moskovitz&#8217;s allegations are based on&nbsp;a graph Tesla shared to&nbsp;mark a significant&nbsp;milestone: one billion miles driven&nbsp;using Full Self-Driving, the company&#8217;s&nbsp;advanced driver assist system. 
He&nbsp;said that Tesla is incorrectly recognizing its deferred revenue&nbsp;as earned revenue through the&nbsp;wider release of its Autopark&nbsp;feature, resulting in inflated numbers.

Musk has been responding to his allegations on X, formerly Twitter, mostly by ridiculing Moskovitz. In one of the posts on X, he said,&nbsp;&#8220;Yeah, Dustin is the one&nbsp;who should go to jail&nbsp;for impersonating a smart person,&#8221; Musk wrote.

Why It Matters: This is not the first time Moskovitz has criticized Tesla and Musk. Last year, he&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/23/11/35841525/elon-musk-under-fire-facebook-co-founder-calls-for-resignation-from-tesla-amid-antisemitism-controve">called for Musk&#8217;s resignation</a>&nbsp;from all his roles, including his position as CEO of Tesla, following a controversial tweet endorsing an antisemitic post. 
Moskovitz&#8217;s skepticism about Musk&#8217;s success also led to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/07/33453340/is-elon-musks-success-a-result-of-deception-facebook-co-founder-challenges-true-impact-of-tesla-spac">contentious debate</a> over whether Musk&#8217;s companies, Tesla and SpaceX, were as revolutionary as they were portrayed. 
&#8220;If they were really built on outward lies, rather than just self-deceptions (rose-colored glasses), then we should really see them as scams he got away with,&#8221; he said in July 2023. 
Meanwhile, Tesla has been facing a tumultuous period, with the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/04/38390883/tesla-q1-earnings-highlights-ev-giant-misses-wall-street-estimates-makes-cost-cuts-invests-in-ai-sp">reporting a 9% year-over-year revenue decrease</a> in the first quarter of 2024. The revenue total fell short of the Street consensus estimate of $22.15 billion, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/feature/newsfeed?gspk=bHVrZWphY29iaTUzNDg&amp;gsxid=tdEE0VrK8Jeg&amp;ref=lukejacobi5348" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro.</a>

This edgy comedy will have you guessing if they'll ever truly click.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">3. Miller&#8217;s Girl</h3>

In Miller&#8217;s Girl, Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman dive into a narrative that blurs the lines between a mentorship and a tangled web of emotions. A young writer finds herself in deep waters as what begins as a creative pursuit with her professor spirals into a dark, manipulative relationship.

Can't Pick What To Watch? Here Are 5 New Netflix Releases Worth Your Weekend

In an exclusive&nbsp;interview, Christine Smith, founder and CEO of&nbsp;<a href="https://eatgron.com/">Gr&ouml;n Edibles</a>, provided an in-depth look at the economic dynamics of operating a cannabis edibles brand across various states.
2024 marks a significant year for Gr&ouml;n, with expansion into multiple U.S. markets including New York, New Jersey,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ohio-cannabis"> Ohio</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/maryland-cannabis">Maryland</a>, enhancing their presence to a total of eight U.S. and Canadian markets.
<h3>Strategic Expansion And Market Dynamics</h3>
Smith emphasized the strategic selection of states based on detailed market analysis. &quot;Each state is very different,&quot; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/03/37945428/how-to-spot-and-seize-market-opportunities-with-products-you-love-top-cannabis-brand-founder-has">Smith</a> noted, highlighting the unique regulatory and market environments that influence their expansion strategy. For instance, Ohio&#39;s recent shift to adult use and its limited license model presents a promising market, similar to past <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38078767/exclusive-missouris-cannabis-market-sees-surge-with-high-dose-products">successes in Missouri</a>.
While less structured, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36250035/a-2024-investor-guide-to-new-yorks-cannabis-market-expansion-the-mso-wealth-roadmap">New York offers vast potential</a> due to its focus on brand scalability. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/07/33329222/the-maryland-effect-a-game-changer-for-the-east-coast-cannabis-industry">Maryland</a>, often overlooked, was chosen based on robust data analytics, including retailer and license counts, and market share opportunities, making it a strategic part of Gr&ouml;n&#39;s East Coast presence.
<h3>Supply Chain Complexity And Ingredient Sourcing: Adapting to Localized Manufacturing Needs</h3>
Gr&ouml;n&#39;s commitment to organic, single-origin ingredients and fair-trade certified suppliers, is a cornerstone of its market appeal, yet this approach presents considerable challenges in navigating the fragmented regulatory landscape of the U.S. cannabis market.
In states like Ohio, regulations prohibit the purchase of oil on the open market, necessitating that companies process oil only within the licensed facilities. To manage these challenges, Gr&ouml;n has diversified its sourcing strategy to ensure a steady supply of biomass, crucial for scalable operations as it enters new markets.
Smith noted the strategic importance of biomass availability: &quot;We will not enter a market if we don&#39;t know that we have the biomass and availability to be able to move at scale.&quot;
Further complicating their operations, Gr&ouml;n has adopted a unique manufacturing model to comply with varied state laws. &quot;We set up our kitchens in all of our facilities. We operate under a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/11/35662129/are-traditional-cannabis-licensing-models-obsolete-how-reverse-licensing-can-help">reverse licensing model</a>,&quot; Smith described. In this model, Gr&ouml;n builds up a production space to their specifications under someone else&#39;s license, approved by the state.
This setup involves using their equipment, such as water-jacketed kettles for cooking gummies and tempering <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/02/31079080/if-you-like-chocolate-youll-love-gr-n-cannabis-edibles-made-by-an-architect-turned-confectioner">machines for chocolate</a>, making it &quot;much less of a kitchen and far more of a production manufacturing facility.&quot;
The need to tailor production processes to each state&#39;s regulations prevents the streamlining of operations across the board. In Canada, for instance, where Gr&ouml;n can operate nationally, the setup is significantly different and more efficient compared to the U.S., where they must establish separate facilities in each state.
&quot;The equipment we&#39;re using in Canada, which is national, allows us to do one facility for the entire country, is very different than what we&#39;re doing here in the States,&quot; Smith added, highlighting the extensive manual labor involved due to each state&#39;s distinct rules.
<h3>Technology And Operational Efficiency</h3>
For Gr&ouml;n, leveraging technology and innovative manufacturing processes is essential in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/08/33579692/cannabis-robots-meet-the-company-boosting-efficiency-and-margins-through-packaging-automation">optimizing production costs</a> and ensuring <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/09/34625368/nasa-precision-meets-cannabis-roi-pre-rolled-infusion-robots-revolutionizing-indust">consistent product quality</a> across a wide range of markets.
Smith explained that this lack of uniformity leads to a reliance on both manual labor and automated systems, tailored to each location. Gr&ouml;n&rsquo;s operations require using smaller, more versatile equipment that can be adjusted to meet local requirements, thereby maintaining compliance while still striving for efficiency.
Moreover, Gr&ouml;n&#39;s approach to technology not only involves the physical machinery but also extends to their<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/02/30915385/exclusive-how-to-lower-the-cost-of-cannabis-quality-and-save-30-of-your-top-line-revenue"> software systems</a>, which must be flexible enough to handle varied regulatory demands from tracking and reporting to quality control.
<h3>Product Development And Consumer Engagement: Adapting to Local Markets</h3>
Gr&ouml;n&#39;s product development is deeply influenced by consumer trends, requiring a strategic balance between innovation and economic viability.
With over 250 SKUs tailored to meet the diverse regulatory and consumer landscapes of various states, Gr&ouml;n&#39;s approach to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/04/32018716/exclusive-what-it-takes-to-build-a-successful-cannabis-edibles-brand-a-discussion-with-industry-lead">product creation and marketing</a> is meticulously localized.
Smith elaborates on the complexities involved in adapting product formulations to suit different markets, particularly when it comes to the use of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/20/08/17023053/cannabis-concentrates-a-beginners-guide-1">cannabis extracts</a> like<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/03/37850817/vaping-emerges-as-a-preferred-method-for-rosin-consumption-in-cannabis-market"> rosin and distillate</a>.
&quot;We&#39;re using rosin depending on the market, and that&#39;s the thing because every market has a different availability as the markets mature,&quot; Smith explained. For example, in the West Coast markets like Oregon, there is a large and consistent availability of rosin, which allows for its broader use in products.
However, in other regions, the limited availability of such extracts requires Gr&ouml;n to adjust their formulations to include a blend of rosin and distillate based on what is locally accessible.
<h3>Pricing Across Markets</h3>
This variability in ingredient availability not only affects the type of products that can be offered in different states but also impacts Gr&ouml;n&#39;s pricing strategy. &quot;In Oregon, we can get oil for $1.50 a gram. On the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38282615/cannabis-brands-leading-market-expansion-in-east-midwest-a-look-at-prices-and-trend"> East Coast</a>, we&#39;re looking at oil for $15 a gram, sometimes $20 a gram,&quot; Smith noted, highlighting the significant cost differences that can affect product pricing and margins.
Despite these challenges, Gr&ouml;n is committed to maintaining a consistent quality and price point for consumers, which occasionally means absorbing higher costs in markets where inputs are more expensive.
The strategy involves a long-term view where initial sacrifices in margins are seen as an investment in establishing market presence and consumer trust. &quot;We sacrifice the margins on the front end for the longevity of having consistency and pricing,&quot; Smith added.
This approach is crucial for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37944162/is-the-future-of-the-marijuana-industry-shaped-by-consumer-packaged-goods-or-vice-versa">consumer packaged goods (CPG)</a> like those offered by Gr&ouml;n, where consumer expectations around product quality and price consistency are high.
Smith is optimistic about the future, focusing on minor cannabinoids and new product developments like low-dose sleep aids, reflecting Gr&ouml;n&#39;s commitment to innovation aligned with consumer needs.
&quot;We are 100% committed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/10/35300227/from-cbn-cbg-to-thcv-consumer-centric-brands-embrace-rare-cannabinoids-for-differentiation">minor cannabinoids</a>. They play a significant role in our product effects and formulations. Hopefully, we&#39;ll see clearer regulations from federal authorities soon,&rdquo; Smith said.
&ldquo;As for our investments in minor cannabinoids, we&#39;re <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/events/24/04/38185665/surge-in-missouris-cannabis-sales-spurs-new-product-launch-by-gr-n">doubling down</a>. We&#39;re excited about our upcoming product release in May&mdash;it&#39;s a super sleep aid featuring a 10 to 1 ratio, with 25mg of CBN and 2.5mg of THC. It&#39;s designed for consumers who prefer a lower dose than a full 10mg gummy. We&rsquo;re also exploring THC-V and sugar-free options, among other minor cannabinoids,&quot; Smith noted.

Inside Grön's Marijuana Edibles Factory: What Can We Learn About Choco-Nomics And Multi-State Expansion?

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Congresswoman Advocates for Marijuana Banking Reform</h3>
In a bid to advance cannabis legislation, Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D- CA) champions the need for marijuana<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38416745/three-pathways-to-federal-cannabis-legalization-that-investors-are-watching-closely"> banking reform,</a> highlighting bipartisan collaboration. Waters, a ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee, stresses the urgency of passing the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/safe-banking-act">Secure and Fair Enforcement Regulation </a>(SAFER) Banking Act, <a href="https://www.marijuanamoment.net/key-congresswoman-says-now-is-the-time-to-pass-marijuana-banking-bill-despite-mcconnells-concerns/">reported </a>Marijuana Moment. This legislation aims to provide banking services to cannabis businesses, addressing their current lack of access to traditional financial institutions due to federal prohibition.
Despite potential challenges from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Waters expresses optimism and determination to overcome obstacles. 
"I know that there may be some concerns with McConnell, but I am hopeful that we can overcome that (&#8230;), we've got to have SAFER Banking, and most of us who have been working on this support that." 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Washington State Proposes Diversity Measures For Cannabis Ownership</h3>
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/02/30902464/washington-state-liquor-and-cannabis-officials-face-obstacles-to-personal-use-under-federal-laws">Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board (WSLCB)</a> introduces amendments to foster diversity in cannabis ownership. With a focus on inclusivity, the proposed changes aim to encourage minority participation and eliminate licensing barriers in cannabis retail. Acknowledging the importance of equitable access, the WSLCB seeks to create a more inclusive landscape.
The WSLCB members<a href="https://tvw.org/video/washington-state-liquor-and-cannabis-board-2024041034/?eventID=2024041034"> received a briefing</a> on proposed changes to the scoring criteria for minority license applicants, aiming to prioritize those most affected by the war on drugs. One proposed change involves considering convictions for all drugs, not just marijuana, in the scoring process. These revisions to the scoring system reflect feedback from social equity applicants in the initial round of applications.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Hampshire Senate Reviews Marijuana Legalization Bill</h3>
A New Hampshire bill legalizing marijuana, passed by the House, now faces scrutiny in a Senate committee. Opponents, including state Sen. Daryl Abbas (R) and Senate president Jeb Bradley (R), propose significant modifications.

Earlier this year, the House-approved <a href="https://legiscan.com/NH/bill/HB1633/2024">HB 1633</a> permits 15 statewide retail stores, imposing a 10% state charge on adult-use purchases. Medical marijuana remains tax-exempt and regulated under an &#8220;agency store&#8221; model with strict marketing limitations.
Abbas&#8217;s proposed changes aim to elevate penalties for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38326268/cannabis-consumption-legal-or-not-in-your-state-everyone-seems-to-be-consuming-at-equal-rates-ne"> public consumption</a>, turning repeat offenses into misdemeanors with potential jail time, contradicting legalization goals. Additionally, Abbas&#8217;s amendment suggests a shift to a franchise system, overseen by the state&#8217;s Liquor Commission, governing the aesthetics and operations of the 15 stores. This, among other amendments, might distort the original spirit of HB1633, putting it at risk of failing in the House when revised, proponents of the bill alerted.

Push For Cannabis Banking Reform, Washington Social Equity, New Hampshire Debates Retail Weed Sales And More

With the potential legalization of adult-use marijuana under Amendment 3, Florida&#39;s cannabis market is set for a significant transformation. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/florida-cannabis">Florida&#39;s legal cannabis</a> spending is projected to grow at a 12% CAGR from 2023 to 2028, with total sales expected to reach $4.5 billion by 2028, positioning Florida as the second-largest U.S. cannabis market after California.
<h3>Competitive Landscape And Consumer Behavior</h3>
Florida&#39;s retail cannabis landscape has already shown significant growth, with the number of dispensaries rising to 628 by April 2024, as per&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bdsa">BDSA</a> data.&nbsp;
The state&#39;s medical cannabis sector remains robust, with patient numbers surpassing 878,000 this month and sales reaching $2.6 billion in 2023, marking an 18% increase from the previous year.
As Florida prepares for a November ballot initiative on adult-use legalization, BDSA analyst Brendan Mitchel-Chesebro underscores the legislative uncertainty around <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38299011/its-on-the-ballot-the-future-of-adult-use-cannabis-in-florida-whats-the-contingency-plan-if-lega">Amendment 3</a>, which allows but does not require the expansion of adult-use cannabis licenses.
This leaves the future market landscape uncertain. If the initiative passes, BDSA forecasts sales of $874 million in 2025 for the adult-use segment.
In this context, existing operators like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38313915/cannabis-in-florida-the-bellamy-brothers-tell-trulieve-ceo-we-rolled-a-fat-one-when-legalization">Trulieve</a> (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tcnnf#OTC">TCNNF</a>) are advised to refine their strategies to cater to a potentially larger and more diverse consumer base.
As consumer penetration rates are expected to surge&mdash;mirroring trends observed in other states transitioning to adult use&mdash;companies must adeptly navigate evolving preferences across different product forms and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/03/37666783/marijuana-shoppers-favorite-strains-2024">usage motivations</a> to maintain or enhance their market shares.
Mitchel-Chesebro points out that, unlike other adult-use markets, only 31% of Florida consumers currently prioritize <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38341510/how-to-max-profits-this-420-smart-discounts-amid-sales-spike-of-premium-marijuana">low-cost</a>, compared to 36% in general adult-use markets.
However, the typical initial price increase following legalization might heighten price sensitivity among <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38037571/floridas-6b-cannabis-market-anticipates-400-growth-following-court-decision-allowin">Florida shoppers</a>.
This, along with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36268367/u-s-cannabis-market-premium-products">growing popularity of infused pre-rolls</a> and a notable 47% year-over-year growth in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/07/33369455/sweet-treats-take-over-gummie-consumption-outpaces-flower-in-latest-consumer-data-h">edibles sales</a>, indicates significant upcoming shifts in consumer behavior as the market expands.
<h3>Strategies For Market Entry And Expansion</h3>
As the Florida market braces for a likely uptick in mergers and acquisitions, Mitchel-Chesebro advises new entrants and expanding firms to adopt a nuanced pricing strategy.
Using BDSA&rsquo;s Price Tiers analysis, he highlights the potential for brands to capitalize on specific product segments where premium offerings are underrepresented relative to their market performance.
For example, in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/11/35991290/analyst-inside-look-trends-and-opportunities-in-ohios-emerging-recreational-cannabi">markets like Ohio</a>, premium-priced flower products disproportionately contribute to sales relative to their market availability. Identifying and targeting these lucrative price tiers can be a key strategy for newly introduced brands aiming for rapid growth in new markets.
