- 22nd Century Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: XXII) is an agricultural biotechnology company focused on tobacco harm reduction through reduced nicotine tobacco products and contract manufacturing services for combustible tobacco items. Founded in 1998 and headquartered in Mocksville, North Carolina, the company develops proprietary tobacco plants with 95% less nicotine using patent-protected technologies including genetic engineering, gene-editing, and molecular breeding; its core offerings include VLN reduced nicotine content cigarettes, the only FDA-authorized modified risk tobacco product (MRTP) combustible cigarette designed to help adult smokers reduce cigarette consumption, SPECTRUM research cigarettes for scientific studies with varying nicotine levels, and turnkey contract manufacturing for third-party branded filtered cigars and cigarettes at its 60,000 square-foot facility capable of producing over 45 million cartons annually. The company serves adult smokers seeking harm reduction alternatives, independent researchers including U.S. government agencies, and other tobacco brands, with primary operations in the United States and potential for international expansion. In recent developments, 22nd Century Group launched its 2025 growth strategy in March 2025 emphasizing profitable contract manufacturing and the relaunch of VLN branded and partner products; it signed a five-year expanded license agreement with Smoker Friendly for its first VLN partner brand with new product launches and shipments starting in Q2 2025, entered a $25 million sales agreement with Needham & Company in November 2025 to fund VLN expansion, completed the sale of Needle Rock Farms assets in May 2025 to strengthen its balance sheet, repaid $3.9 million in senior secured debt in September 2025 achieving a debt-free position bolstered by a $9.5 million non-dilutive insurance settlement, and raised $1.68 million via Regulation A offering in August 2024 while amending its credit facility to enhance financial flexibility.
