Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-230405)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Greenlane Holdings,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), we hereby submit in electronic form the response of the Company to the
comment received from the Staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
in a letter dated April 10, 2019 (the “Comment Letter”), which is reproduced below. Certain capitalized terms set forth
in this letter are used as defined in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 of the Company (the “Registration Statement”),
together with Exhibits, filed with the Commission on March 20, 2019 and amended on April 8, 2019 (File No. 333-230405).
The Company has asked us to convey the
following response to the Staff:
Dilution, page 71
1. We note your response to comment 3 and your updated dilution disclosures. As previously requested,
please show us how you calculated your net tangible book value as of December 31, 2018 of $(12.6) million. Please specifically
tell us whether you have included deferred offering costs and deferred financing costs and why you believe your treatment is appropriate.
Response: In response to the Staff’s comment,
the Company hereby provides details of its calculation of net tangible book value of $(12.6) million as of December 31, 2018.
As requested by the Staff, please be advised that deferred offering costs of $2,284,423 and deferred financing costs of $92,080
were included in the calculation of net tangible book value as of December 31, 2018.

The Company respectfully advises the Staff that, in calculating
net tangible book value per share, it considered the guidance in Section 8300 of the Division of Corporation Finance’s Financial
Reporting Manual (the “FRM”). As there are no rules or authoritative guidelines that define tangible book value, the
Company believes diversity in practice exists in relation to the inclusion of deferred costs in the calculation of net tangible
book value per share, particularly when considering the materiality of the impact to the required disclosures. The Company also
re-assessed the disclosure requirements in Item 506 of Regulation S-K and the materiality of the impact of excluding deferred
offering costs and deferred financing costs in the calculation of pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering,
as well as in the calculation of the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to purchasers in this offering. While
the Company acknowledges the Staff’s guidance relating to deferred costs in Sections 8320 and 8330 of the FRM, the Company
does not believe that the inclusion of its deferred offering costs and deferred financing fees in the calculation of net tangible
book value per share is material to investors in the offering. In particular, the Company believes that the calculation of pro
forma net tangible book value per share after the offering is more meaningful to investors than pro forma net tangible book value
per share before the offering. In that respect, the Company notes that the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this
offering would change by only $0.01, from $2.47 to $2.46 (representing a difference of approximately 0.41%) if deferred financing
costs were to be excluded from the calculation of pro forma net tangible book value per share after the offering. The Company
notes that its presentation of pro forma net tangible book value after the offering already excluded deferred offering costs because
these deferred costs were charged against the net proceeds from this offering as part of the Company’s pro forma offering
adjustments, as described in footnote (i) to the unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 on page 80
of Amendment No. 1. Similarly, the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to purchasers in this offering would
change by only $0.01, from $12.53 to $12.54 (representing a difference of approximately 0.08%) if deferred financing costs were
to be excluded from the calculation of pro forma net tangible book value.
Given the nominal differences in the calculations, the
Company believes the impact of including the carrying balance of deferred offering costs and deferred financing costs as of December
31, 2018 in its calculation of pro forma net tangible book value per share to purchasers in this offering and the dilution in
pro forma net tangible book value per share to purchasers in this offering is immaterial to the Company’s disclosures and
is not misleading to investors. As a result of the foregoing, the Company respectfully submits that no additional adjustment to
the calculation of net tangible book value or to the Company’s existing disclosures should be required.
For the Staff’s convenience, we have included below
the calculation of pro forma net tangible book value and pro forma net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2018 excluding
deferred offering costs and deferred financing costs as support for the amounts noted in the foregoing explanation.

Registration
Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-230405)
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
On
behalf of our client, Greenlane Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules promulgated thereunder,
we hereby submit in electronic form the accompanying Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Registration Statement
on Form S-1 of the Company (the “Registration Statement”), marked to indicate changes from the Registration Statement
on Form S-1 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 20, 2019.
Amendment
No. 1 reflects the responses of the Company to comments received from the Staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) in
a letter dated April 5, 2019 (the “Comment Letter”). In addition to addressing the comments received from the Staff,
the Company has also revised Amendment No. 1 to update other disclosures in the Registration Statement.
The
discussion below is presented in the order of the numbered comments in the Comment Letter. Certain capitalized terms set forth
in this letter are used as defined in the Registration Statement. For your convenience, references in the responses to page numbers
are to the marked version of Amendment No. 1 and to the prospectus included therein.

Operating
Results, page 10
The
Company has asked us to convey the following responses to the Staff:
1. We
note your proposed disclosure that you may include in a subsequent amendment regarding
your partial first quarter net sales, and it appears the presentation of this preliminary
result in isolation provides investors with an incomplete picture of your financial results.
Accordingly, we have the following comments:
● Please
discuss the way(s) in which these results are consistent with or different from your
results of operations in prior periods. Please also expand your disclosure to explain
both quantitatively and qualitatively the factors that you believe have contributed to
the changes. The nature of any unusual or nonrecurring items that have impacted or are
expected to impact the preliminary results should also be disclosed.
● We
note your statement in your proposed disclosure that you...“may identify items
that require [you] to make adjustments to the financial information set forth above and
those changes could be material.” If you choose to disclose preliminary results,
you should be able to assert that the actual results are not expected to vary materially
from that reflected in the preliminary results. Accordingly, please remove this statement,
as it implies that investors should not rely on the information presented, or explain
why the presentation of this information alongside a disclaimer that the preliminary
financial information could differ materially provides meaningful disclosure to investors.
Please
also confirm your understanding that if, prior to the effective date of your registration statement, more precise numbers become
available as you conduct your financial closing procedures for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, they will be included in your
registration statement.
Response: In response to
the Staff’s comment in the first bullet above, the Registration Statement has been revised to add disclosure regarding
the material quantitative and qualitative factors that the Company believes contributed to the increase in its estimated
net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2019 relative to its net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018. At
this time, the Company is not aware of any unusual or nonrecurring items that impacted such estimated net sales. Please see
page 11 of Amendment No. 1.
In
response to the Staff’s comment in the second bullet above, the Registration Statement has been revised to remove the sentence
that stated that the Company may, or the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm may request the Company
to, make adjustments to its estimated preliminary net sales results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 that could be material.
Please see page 11 of Amendment No. 1.

The
Company confirms its understanding that if, prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, more precise net sales
results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 become available as the Company conducts its financial closing procedures for
such period, the Company will include such results in the Registration Statement.
Corporate
Structure, Page 14
2. We
note that you show in the organizational charts here and on page 66 that investors in
the offering will have a 22.6% economic interest in Greenlane Holdings, Inc. We also
note that you show that the founder and non-founder members will have no economic interest
in the registrant. We further note that in the third bullet point on page 65, you state
that purchasers in the offering will own 100% of the economic interest in you. Please
clarify for us what percentage of economic interest that investors in the offering will
own after the offering and update your disclosures as needed.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, the organizational charts in the Registration Statement have been revised to update
the percentage economic interest in the Company that will be held by the investors in this offering following this offering and
to add disclosure regarding the percentage voting interest and the percentage economic interest in the Company that will be held
by the investors in the Convertible Notes following this offering. As a result of such revision and added disclosure, investors
will be able to determine from the chart the various stockholder groups that collectively own 100% of the voting interests and
economic interests in the Company following this offering. Please see pages 14 and 66 of Amendment No. 1.
In
response to the Staff’s comment, the Registration Statement has been revised to correct the percentage of the economic interest
in the Company to be owned by the investors in this offering following this offering. Please see page 65 of Amendment No. 1.
Dilution,
page 71
3. We
note your dilution calculation and have the following comments.
● Please
show us how you calculated your net tangible book value as of December 31, 2018 of $(12.6)
million and net tangible book value per share of $(0.34). It appears you have used 41,333,333
shares as outstanding in this calculation. If so, please explain your basis for using
this amount of shares as it appears to be the amount of common units outstanding in the
LLC and also to include the shares purchased in this offering.
● Please
also explain how this represents Class A common stock owned by your founder and non-founding
members, when it appears they will not hold Class A stock but will be issued Class B
and Class C common stock.
Securities
and Exchange Commission
April
8, 2019
Page 4
● For
your net tangible book value per share after the offering of $2.47, it appears you have
also used 41,333,333 shares. Please explain to us why you believe this is the appropriate
amount of shares to use as this appears to be the common units outstanding in the LLC
and not the shares issued for the registrant.
Response: In response to the Staff’s
comment in the first bullet above, the Company advises the Staff that, while it correctly calculated the pro forma book value per
share of its Class A common stock as of December 31, 2018 ($(0.34)) by dividing its pro forma net tangible book value at such date
($(12.6) million) by 36,666,667 shares of Class A common stock (which does not include the shares of Class A common stock to be
sold by the Company in this offering) as the denominator, it incorrectly stated in the third paragraph on page 71 of the Registration
Statement that 41,333,333 shares was used as the denominator. The Company has revised the Registration Statement to reflect the
denominator in such calculation as 36,666,667 shares of Class A common stock. Please see page 71 of Amendment No. 1.
In response to the Staff’s comment in the second
bullet above, as stated in the first paragraph on page 71 of the Registration Statement, because the members of Greenlane Holdings,
LLC will not hold any direct economic interest in the Company immediately following this offering until they convert or exchange
their Common Units for shares of Class A common stock, to present to investors the potential dilutive impact of purchasing shares
of the Company’s Class A common stock in this offering, the Company believes it is more meaningful to assume the redemption
or exchange of all Common Units for Class A common stock when presenting the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per
share before and after this offering. By making such assumption, the Company is illustrating to investors the maximum potential
dilutive impact of purchasing shares of the Company’s Class A common stock in this offering, rather than the minimum dilutive
impact, which would have been the result if such assumption was not made. As a result, as disclosed in connection with all per
share calculations on pages 71 and 72 of the Registration Statement, the Company gave effect to the Assumed Redemption in making
such calculations.
In response to the Staff’s comment in the third
bullet above, in calculating the Company’s net tangible book value per share after this offering, the Company used 41,333,333
shares as the denominator, which is the sum of (i) the outstanding shares at December 31, 2018 giving
effect to the Transactions and the Assumed Redemption (32,645,834 shares), (ii) the shares of Class A common stock issued upon
the automatic settlement of the Convertible Notes (4,020,833 shares), and (iii) the shares of Class A common stock issued by the
Company in this offering (4,666,666 shares).
4. Please
show us how you determined the amounts shown in the table on page 72. Please explain
why you show new investors as purchasing 4,666,666 shares and excluded the shares sold
to new investors by selling shareholders. Please also explain why the total number of
shares is 41,333,333 shares as this appears to be the common units outstanding for the
LLC and not the total number of shares to be outstanding for the registrant. Please finally
show us how you determined the amount of total consideration contributed by existing
shareholders. We may have further comment.
Response: In determining the numbers
of shares to include in this table for the existing stockholders and the investors, the Company believes that it is important for
the investor to understand the total consideration per share that was paid by the Company’s existing stockholders prior to
this offering relative to the purchase price per share to be paid by investors in this offering ($15.00 per share, assuming the
midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of the prospectus). The Company’s stockholders prior to this offering
include all of the existing members of Greenlane Holdings, LLC and the investors in the Convertible Notes. After giving effect
to the Assumed Redemption, as discussed above, and to the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon the automatic shares
settlement of the Convertible Notes, such stockholders owned an aggregate of 36,666,667 shares of Class A common stock prior to
this offering, as reflected in the table.
Securities
and Exchange Commission
April
8, 2019
Page 5
The Company notes that the inclusion of the shares of Class
A common stock to be sold to investors in this offering by the selling stockholders in the number of shares to be purchased by
the investors will not change the average price per share to be paid by the investors. As a result, the Company believes it would
be improper to reduce the total number of shares purchased by the existing stockholders and the total consideration paid by the
existing stockholders prior to this offering in the table to give effect to the sale by the selling stockholders of shares of Class
A common stock to the investors in this offering. Instead, the Company has added additional disclosure following the table to make
clear that the table does not include the shares to be sold by the selling stockholders to the investors in this offering and to
illustrate the increase in the percentage ownership of share purchased and percentage of consideration paid by the investors if
such shares had been included in the table and the corresponding reduction in such percentages by the existing stockholders.
The Company believes the total number of shares of Class A common
stock to be outstanding after this offering (41,333,333 shares), which reflects the Assumed Redemption, is appropriate for the
table for the reasons expressed above and in the first paragraph on page 71 of the Registration Statement.
In response to the comment of the Staff as to how the Company
determined the total consideration contributed by the existing stockholders, please be advised that the aggregate consideration
contributed by each group of existing stockholders was as follows:
Existing stockholder group:

____________________
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Greenlane Holdings,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), we hereby provide the following preliminary proposed price range and
share number information, which will be the basis for the information expected to be included in the Company’s preliminary
prospectus (the “Preliminary Prospectus”) forming part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the
“Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March
20, 2019 (File No. 333-230405). Based on currently available information and market conditions, we expect the preliminary price
range to reflect an initial public offering price per share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share
(the “Shares”), of between $14.00 and $16.00 (the “Preliminary Price Range”) and 5,333,333 Shares offered to
the public in connection with the offering (or 6,133,333 Shares if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares
is exercised in full). We also submit the accompanying changed pages to the Registration Statement, which we expect to include
in the Preliminary Prospectus. The enclosed pages are marked to indicate changes from the Registration Statement and include,
among other things, certain information previously left blank in the Registration Statement that is derived from the Preliminary
Price Range, pro forma financial information and the preliminary estimated ranges of certain of our financial results for the

comment received from the Staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
in a letter dated March 29, 2019 (the “Comment Letter”), which is reproduced below. Certain capitalized terms set forth
in this letter are used as defined in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 of the Company (the “Registration Statement”),
together with Exhibits, filed with the Commission on March 20, 2019 (File No. 333-230405).
The Company has asked us to convey the
following response to the Staff:
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial

Non-GAAP Financial Measure – Adjusted EBITDA, page

1. We note your addition of an adjustment called “...transition to being a public company”
described as fees and expenses primarily attributable to consulting fees and incremental audit and legal fees. These appear to
us to be normal, recurring, cash operating expenses of your company. Please tell us how you considered the guidance in Question
100.01 of the C&DI on Non-GAAP Financial Measures and why you believe this adjustment is appropriate and how you determined
the “incremental” portion. We may have further comment.
Response: The Company respectfully advises the
Staff that, when determining the appropriate adjustments to include in its calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, it considered all relevant
SEC guidance relating to non-GAAP financial measures, including the guidance in Question 100.01 of the C&DI and Item 10(e)
of Regulation S-K. Item 10(e)(1)(ii)(B) of Regulation S-K states that a registrant must not “adjust a non-GAAP performance
measure to eliminate or smooth items identified as non-recurring, infrequent or unusual, when the nature of the change or gain
is such that it is reasonably likely to recur within two years or there was a similar charge or gain within the prior two years.”
After carefully considering the relevant guidance, the Company believes that the inclusion of the line item to the Company’s
calculation of Adjusted EBITDA titled “Transition to being a public company” (the “Adjustment”) is appropriate
and not misleading because (i) it adjusts for expense items that are unusual, non-recurring, cash operating expenses, (ii) the
expenses reflected in the Adjustment have not been incurred in the past and are not reasonably expected to be incurred in the next
two years and thereafter and (iii) the expenses reflected in the Adjustment are separate and distinct from the normal recurring
cash expenses it expects to incur as a public company.
Securities and Exchange Commission

The
Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide investors with information that is reflective of the Company’s
ongoing business operations in order to facilitate investors’ assessment of the Company’s operating performance, both
within a particular period and for period-over-period comparative purposes. Accordingly, the Company’s adjustments to EBITDA
to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA are intended to address expenses that (i) are not reflective of the Company’s existing and
expected future business operations, (ii) would, in the absence of the Adjustment, make it challenging for investors to assess
the Company’s core operating performance, and (iii) could be misleading to the extent they are unlikely to recur, thereby
providing investor with a performance measure that will not be comparable in subsequent periods. In particular, the expenses included
in the Adjustment are primarily legal, accounting and tax expenses that were incurred solely in connection with the Company’s
restructuring prior to, and as an integral part of, the initial public offering (the “IPO”), and costs associated
with upgrades to the Company’s accounting and financial reporting policies and procedures in preparation for the IPO. These
incremental costs were determined by including only those fees and expenses that the Company has determined relate to the Company’s
IPO, that are non-recurring in the ordinary course as a public company and that would not have been incurred by the Company but
for the IPO. These expenses are truly one-time in nature and will not be part of the recurring cash expenses incurred by the Company
going forward. Furthermore, because the costs reflected in the Adjustment relate solely to activities incurred in connection with
the IPO and do not relate to the day-to-day operation of the Company’ business, these types of expenses have not been incurred
in any period prior to the year ended December 31, 2018.
In contrast, as described in the Registration Statement
under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Components
of our Results of Operations—Operating Expenses—General and Administrative Expenses,” the Company recognizes
that it will have increased recurring cash expenses as a result of becoming a public company, such as increased legal and accounting
expenses related to complying with its public reporting obligations. The Company has included these recurring expenses in its calculation
of Adjusted EBITDA. For example, the Company has not excluded audit fees associated with the financial statements included in the
Registration Statement because similar audit fees will be incurred by the Company in the ordinary course as a public company.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company believes that
the inclusion of the Adjustment in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate and not misleading to investors.

Ladies
and Gentlemen:
On
behalf of our client, Greenlane Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules promulgated thereunder,
we hereby submit in electronic form the accompanying Registration Statement on Form S-1 of the Company (the “Registration
Statement”), marked to indicate changes from the draft Registration Statement on Form S-1 that was initially submitted to
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on a confidential basis pursuant to the Division of Corporate
Finance procedures for draft registration statement processing announced on June 29, 2017.
The
Registration Statement reflects the responses of the Company to comments received from the Staff of the Commission (the “Staff”)
in a letter dated February 11, 2019 (the “Comment Letter”). The discussion below is presented in the order of the
numbered comments in the Comment Letter. Certain capitalized terms set forth in this letter are used as defined in the Registration
Statement. For your convenience, references in the responses to page numbers are to the marked version of the Registration Statement
and to the prospectus included therein.

Prospectus
Summary
Recent
Private Financing, page 11
1. We
note your disclosure that the convertible promissory notes will automatically settle
into shares of Class A common stock in connection with the closing of this offering at
a settlement price equal to 80% of the initial public offering price. We also note your
disclosure that in connection with the sale of such convertible promissory notes, you
have agreed with each purchaser of at least $5 million principal amount of the notes,
that the underwriters will provide such noteholders the option to purchase additional
shares of Class A common stock in this offering. Please revise your disclosure on page
12 to include the number of shares of Class A common stock to be issued if the holders
of at least $5 million principal amount of the notes, purchase additional shares of Class
A common stock in this offering. In this regard, we note that you have only included
a placeholder for the shares of Class A common stock to be issued pursuant to the settlement
price of 80% of the initial public offering price.
Response:
The Company advises the Staff that any additional shares of Class A common stock issued to the holders of at least $5 million
principal amount of the convertible notes will be shares issued as part of the existing offering. As described on page 11 of
the Registration Statement, the Company agreed with each purchaser of at least $5 million principal amount of the convertible
notes to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing underwriters of this offering to offer to such purchasers the
option to purchase in this offering a number of shares of Class A common stock equal to 50% of the principal amount of convertible
notes purchased by such purchaser divided by the price per share of the Class A common stock sold in this offering. The Company
advises the Staff that should any such purchaser elect to accept this offer to purchase additional shares of Class A common stock,
such shares of Class A common stock will be allocated by the underwriters in ordinary course as part of the existing offering
and will not increase the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to be issued in this offering. The Company
also advises the Staff that none of the purchasers of at least $5 million principal amount of the convertible notes is an affiliate
of the Company.
Therefore,
the Company respectfully submits that the potential number of shares of Class A common stock to be issued to such purchasers is
already included in the existing disclosure on page 12, and no additional disclosure should be required.

In this regard, please specifically explain why recording the liability was the result of adoption of ASC 606 as opposed to correction of an error in applying ASC 605. We may have further comment. 21. It appears the most significant change in adopting ASC 606 was a change in the timing of sales recognition from date of delivery to date of shipme nt. If our understanding is not correct, please clarify it. If so, please advise how sales and cost of sales associated with shipments that occurred in December 2016 but were delivered in January 2017 have been accounted for in the adoption of ASC 606.
