Market Insights Snapshot
Another State’s May 2026 mix is concentrated in Vapor Pens at 43.10% share with 1.34% month-over-month growth and 546.87% year-over-year expansion, while Flower accounts for 31.43% share with 9.06% month-over-month growth and Pre-Roll holds 18.83% share with 12.43% month-over-month growth. Edible contributes 6.61% share with 9.48% month-over-month growth, contrasting with Concentrates at 0.03% share and steep declines of -87.46% month-over-month and -70.33% year-over-year; this mix places Vapor Pens as the core volume engine even as the fastest near-term momentum sits in Pre-Roll and Flower. With a New Jersey Vapor Pens rank of 17 and a brand-level average price up 54.01% year-over-year alongside a 658.52% brand sales year-over-year lift, the pattern implies a scale-up driven by higher-priced formats where Vapor Pens stability and rank provide the anchor while combustion formats are widening the base.
The shift toward combustion formats—Pre-Roll up 12.43% month-over-month at 18.83% share and Flower up 9.06% month-over-month at 31.43% share—alongside steady Vapor Pens growth of 1.34% month-over-month at 43.10% share signals risk diversification away from a single-category dependency. Given Concentrates’ contraction of -87.46% month-over-month and -70.33% year-over-year to 0.03% share, the portfolio is effectively exiting low-velocity segments, which, paired with a May 2026 New Jersey Vapor Pens rank of 17 and 546.87% year-over-year Vapor Pens growth, implies a positioning strategy centered on maintaining pen visibility while leaning into accessible price-point trial via Pre-Roll to feed Flower trade-ups.
Competitive Landscape
Another State sits at rank #17 in NJ Vapor Pens for May 2026, improving 45 spots year over year from #62, and inching up 3 positions since February 2026 when it was #20; the climb peaked at #16 in March 2026 before slipping one place, implying a near-term ceiling. While Select holds #1 despite a -13.9% year-over-year sales change and Rove surged from #16 to #5 on +158.0% sales growth, Another State’s modest rank gain alongside a 1-place retreat from its March 2026 peak signals momentum, but also exposure to faster-moving rivals, implying that without a step-change in velocity the brand is likely to stabilize around the mid-teens rather than break into the top 10.

Notable Products
Black Cherry Fizz Distillate Cartridge (1g) posted the steepest movement in May 2026 with a -13.0% month-over-month decline while holding rank 5, contrasting with Maui Wowie Distillate Cartridge (1g) at rank 3 and Tangie Sunrise Distillate Cartridge (1g) at rank 4. Vapor Pens occupied four of the top ten ranks while Pre-Rolls held five, indicating a near split that tilts toward inhalables overall. With Dirty Taxi Pre-Roll (1g) at rank 1 and Pineapple Fruz Pre-Roll (1g) at rank 2, the mix points to an emphasis on accessible, single-gram formats anchoring traffic while cartridges concentrate dollar volume around mid-pack ranks, implying a strategy that balances basket-building Pre-Rolls with higher-ticket Vapor Pens.
