Canadian Securities Exchange Reports August 2021 Performance, Including Strong Financing Figures

C.RWB, C.AYR.A, C.FFNT, N.VRNO

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 15, 2021) - The Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE" or "the Exchange") today announced its market statistics for the month of August 2021, which was highlighted by large financings in the cannabis and mining sectors.

August 2021 Operating Statistics

  • Trading volume of CSE-listed securities totaled 2.1 billion shares;
  • Trading value of CSE-listed securities was $1.6 billion;
  • CSE issuers completed 65 financings that raised $980 million;
  • There were 15 new listings, bringing total listed securities to 704 as at August 31, 2021; and
  • The aggregate market value of CSE issuers was $58.1 billion as at August 31, 2021, compared to $42.1 billion at year-end 2020.

"The Canadian Securities Exchange had another solid month of trading and financing activity in August, despite being in the seasonally slow summer period," said Richard Carleton, CSE Chief Executive Officer. "In fact, our issuers raised more aggregate capital in August than in all but two other months in 2021. This was primarily attributable to large financings completed by Ascend Wellness Holdings, Cresco Labs, RIV Capital, Asante Gold and MedMen Enterprises. We are pleased to see CSE issuers of all sizes continuing to access significant capital to fund their growth objectives."

What's On at the CSE

The inaugural issue of Canadian Securities Exchange Magazine has been published.
