NJOY Holdings seeks sale advice from bankers
NJOY, an e-cigarette company, has reportedly hired bankers for advice on a potential sale, valued at up to $5 billion.

The Wall Street Journal reports, citing anonymous sources, that electronic cigarette company NJOY Holdings Inc. has hired bankers to advise on the possible sale of the company. The process is said to be in its early stages and a source has suggested that NJOY, which is privately held, could be valued at as much as $5 billion, but the ultimate outcome of any sale is far from certain.


NJOY is an established electronic cigarette company that has received approval from federal regulatory authorities to sell its tobacco-flavored electronic cigarettes in the United States. As of now, the two most popular electronic cigarette products in the US market, Juul and Vuse Alto, have not yet received PMTA approval from the FDA.


Furthermore, The Wall Street Journal reported that if NJOY's valuation isn't high enough, the company will remain private and continue to seek funding, potentially through an initial public offering in the future. As it stands, NJOY is currently in the process of raising a new round of funding, with hopes of securing $300-500 million.


So far, NJOY and the company's main stakeholder, Mudrick Capital Management, have not responded to the rumors.


On June 10, 2022, the FDA issued a statement regarding NJOY Daily electronic cigarette products, announcing that the PMTA has officially approved two disposable e-cigarette products: NJOY Daily Rich Tobacco 4.5% and NJOY Daily Extra Rich Tobacco 6%.


On April 26, 2022, the FDA issued a statement regarding the NJOY Ace e-cigarette product. The PMTA has officially approved four pod vape products, including one device and three pods.

The NJOY Ace Pod Classic Tobacco 2.4% is a product offered by the company, available in the market.

Oklahoma DOC to allow inmates to buy nicotine vapes and pouches in 2026
Oklahoma’s Department of Corrections says it will begin allowing inmates to buy single-use nicotine vapes and nicotine pouches through prison canteens in 2026, framing the move as a strategy to reduce contraband-driven debts and prison violence. Officials say inmates will be barred from using personal nicotine products, the devices will be disposable and non-cartridge-based, and the program will be self-funded through inmate purchases rather than taxpayer money.

DTI drafts administrative order proposing an open-pod and e-liquid ban and opens it for public consultation
Department of Trade and Industry’s (DTI) proposed move to restrict harmful vape products to protect young people, but said only a total ban on all vaping and novel tobacco products would effectively safeguard public health. The group warned that limiting rules to certain products such as open pods and e-liquids could create a “dangerous behavioral loophole,” leading users—especially youth—to switch to disposable or closed-system alternatives instead of quitting.
