WAKEFIELD, Mass., Dec. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Curaleaf Holdings, Inc.

 We are pleased to continue Curaleaf’s expansion in the state of Arizona with the acquisition of Bloom. In addition to bolstering our strong position in this key growth market with an attractive portfolio of retail and cultivation assets, Bloom will be immediately accretive to our adjusted EBITDA margins upon close. On behalf of the Board of Directors and management team, I look forward to welcoming Bloom to the Curaleaf family.
