Operator Spotlight: TerrAscend With Jason Wild and Ziad Ghanem

Higher Exchanges this week kicks off with a listener question about whether Schedule III is enough to kick off a lasting bull market. After going around the horn, Jesse, Morgan, and Toby agree that a combination of growth, cash flow, and greater access will meaningfully move share prices. 

TerrAscend's Executive Chairman Jason Wild and CEO Ziad Ghanem join the show 20 minutes in. Jason shares his thoughts on what conditions may lead to a lasting move. We then transition to talking about returning to growth and progress on potential M&A in Ohio. Ziad shares updates on Michigan and Pennsylvania and then explains how they've assumed the top position in the profitable New Jersey market. 

It wouldn't be cannabis without discussing political progress, and Jason gives his perspective on Schedule III, Trump, and updates us on the Boies lawsuit. He hopes the Boies case may be heard by the Supreme Court as soon as the second half of 2025.

The episode concludes with a classic Ask Grok that involves Morgan singing!
