Company Overview

22nd Century Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: XXII) is a biotechnology and tobacco company focused on developing products designed to reduce the health risks associated with smoking. Its technology uses genetic engineering and plant breeding to control the nicotine content of tobacco, with the goal of helping adult smokers reduce nicotine consumption and dependence.

The company’s best-known product is VLN cigarettes, which contain substantially less nicotine than conventional cigarettes. VLN products were developed as a potential reduced-nicotine alternative for adult smokers and received authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to be marketed with modified-risk claims. The company has also pursued research and development involving tobacco, nicotine, hemp and cannabis plants, including plant-based compounds and technologies for controlling cannabinoid and nicotine levels.

22nd Century Group was founded in 1998 and has historically served the U.S. market through relationships with tobacco manufacturers, distributors and retailers. Its business has included licensing its proprietary plant-genetics technology as well as developing and commercializing its own reduced-nicotine tobacco products. The company has experienced changes in strategy and operations over time, and its product availability and corporate status may vary as it restructures its business.
