More than 500 of the city’s approximately 700 licensed cannabis businesses collectively owe about $400 million in taxes — a sum that includes $100 million in fines and $35 million in interest, according to an October report from the Treasury Department.

In February, the sale of cannabis decreased sequentially by 3.6%. Adjusted for fewer days, sales rose 6.7% sequentially on a daily basis. In this review, we break down the results by state, starting with the western markets and then ending with the eastern markets. Overall, the BDSA estimates sales in 15 markets totaled $1.99 billion in February, up 2.7 percent from a year ago.

Eastern markets

BDSA provides coverage for Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Year-over-year growth in February ranged from -1.5% in Missouri to +27.3% in Ohio. Ohio began using adults in August, spurring growth. Note that Florida and Pennsylvania are medical markets only. On a daily basis, sequential gains declined in both markets. Year-over-year growth was negative in both markets and increased sharply in only one country.
