    XXII is up 65.9% pre-market after reporting a 161% quarter-over-quarter increase in same-store retail units at one launch partner. The sales metric is encouraging but limited to one partner, covers a small commercial base, and does not quantify revenue or earnings, making the move substantially larger than the disclosed news.

    WHYA 65.9% pre-market jump is outsized relative to a 161% unit increase from Q2 to Q3 at one 1,500-store partner with no disclosed financial impact.

XXII opened at $0.6700 after TapeRank recorded it at $0.9900 in premarket trading, where the move was tied to news that same-store retail units for Pinnacle VLN and Pinnacle Pure rose 161% quarter over quarter at one launch partner. TapeRank read the reaction as stretched because the increase came from one 1,500-store partner, covered a small commercial base, and disclosed no revenue or earnings impact. The stock then fell to $0.3019 at 14:11 ET before recovering to finish the regular session at $0.3448, with no halts during the session.
