The discontinued companies include:

• Ascend Wellness Holdings, Inc. AAWH

The departing analyst is most likely Pablo Zuanic, in that cannabis and psychedelics coverage was his beat at Cantor Fitzgerald. According to Zuanic’s LinkedIn page, he is in the process of launching a comprehensive, data-driven research subscription service on the cannabis and psychedelics sector aimed at institutional investors and corporations. He has apparently founded his own firm, Zuanic & Associates where he is a managing partner.
