Cannabis & Hemp

The cannabis industry continues its soaring growth – and pending legislation is only adding to expectations at both the federal and state levels.

Reports state cannabis is a huge industry, north of $60 billion in the U.S alone. Meanwhile, in other countries such as Canada, the broader cannabis industry continues to expand rapidly -- and EisnerAmper is assisting companies and investors.

While cannabis is still federally illegal, U.S. states continue their march toward legalization. The 2018 Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (a.k.a Farm Bill) removed industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) from the federal Controlled Substances list. New and established cannabis and hemp companies require professional accounting and advisory services.
