Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 14, 2024) - The Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE" or "the Exchange") today announced market statistics for July 2024.
July 2024 Operating Statistics

- CSE issuers completed 98 financings that raised an aggregate $428 million; and
- The CSE welcomed listings from three new companies, bringing total listed securities to 787 as at July 31, 2024.
"The month of July featured the two largest financings completed by CSE issuers this year, both in the cannabis sector," said Richard Carleton, CEO of the CSE. "We were delighted to see that Ascend Wellness Holdings, Inc. raised US$235 million, and Jushi Holdings Inc. raised US$48.5 million.
