Lunar Consulting, a multi-license Montana cannabis operator based in Columbia Falls, has had its dispensary, cultivator, and manufacturer licenses deactivated, according to the state license roster. The company held three active licenses across those license types as of the update.

The deactivation occurred as part of a coordinated regulatory action on September 9, 2026, when Montana regulators simultaneously deactivated licenses for at least eleven cannabis businesses, suggesting either a compliance sweep or batch processing of license terminations. The timing and scale of the closures warrant monitoring of regulatory filings for context.

Montana's adult-use market continues to operate with 538 retail locations, 302 cultivators, and 180 manufacturers active as of the update. August 2026 sales data shows the state generated approximately $57.8 million in monthly revenue, though the specific impact of these deactivations on future totals remains to be seen.
