FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” regarding The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “The Cannabist Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”).

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Particular risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different from those expressed in our forward-looking statements include those listed below:

•the impact of the Company's corporate restructuring activities, including, without limitation, the Company’s debt restructuring as contemplated by the Support Agreement (as defined below);

•the fact that marijuana remains illegal under federal law;

•the application of anti-money laundering laws and regulations to the Company;

•legal, regulatory, or political change to the cannabis industry;

•access to public and private capital;

•unfavorable publicity or consumer perception of the cannabis industry;

•expansion to the adult-use markets;

•the impact of laws, regulations, and guidelines;

•the impact of Section 280E of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”);

•the impact of state laws pertaining to the cannabis industry;

•the Company’s reliance on key inputs, suppliers and skilled labor;

•the difficulty of forecasting the Company’s sales;

•constraints on marketing products;

•potential cyber-attacks and security breaches;

•net operating loss and other tax attribute limitations;

•the impact of changes in tax laws;

•the volatility of the market price of the Company’s common shares;

•reliance on management;

•litigation;

•future results and financial projections; and

•the impact of global financial conditions.

The list of factors above is illustrative and by no means exhaustive. Additional information regarding these risks and other risks and uncertainties we face is contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as well as subsequent filings. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, or intended.

We urge readers to consider these risks and uncertainties in evaluating our forward-looking statements. We caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

1.               OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY

The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc. (“the Company”, “the Parent”, or "The Cannabist Company"), formerly known as Columbia Care Inc., was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario on August 13, 2018. The Company's principal mission is to improve lives by providing cannabis-based products to qualified patients and consumers. The Company’s head office and principal address is 321 Billerica Rd., Suite 204, Chelmsford, Massachusetts 01824. The Company’s registered and records office address is 666 Burrard St #1700, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 2X8.

On April 26, 2019, the Company completed a reverse takeover (“RTO”) transaction and private placement.

Effective September 19, 2023, the Company changed its name from “Columbia Care Inc.” to “The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc.” (the “Name Change”). In connection with the Name Change, on September 21, 2023, the Company’s common shares and warrants began trading under the ticker symbols “CBST” and “CBST.WT”, respectively, on Cboe Canada. On September 26, 2023, the Company’s common shares began trading on the OTCQX Best Market under the ticker symbol “CBSTF,” and transitioned to the OTCQB in April 2025.

2.               SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, statement of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current year ending December 31, 2025. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”).

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the instructions to Form 10-Q.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in United States dollars except as otherwise indicated. All references to C$, CAD$ and CDN$ are to Canadian dollars.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period's condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes to conform to the current year presentation.

2026 Notes

On February 3, 2022, the Company closed a private placement (the “February 2022 Private Placement”) of $185,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.50% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $153,250. The 2026 Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 100.0% of face value. The 2026 Notes accrued interest in arrears which was payable semi-annually and were scheduled to mature on February 3, 2026, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Company may redeem the 2026 Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after February 3, 2024, as more particularly described in the fourth supplemental trust indenture governing the 2026 Notes. In connection with the offering of the 2026 Notes, the Company exchanged $31,750 of the Company’s existing 13.0% senior secured first-lien notes (the “13.0% Term Debt”), pursuant to private agreements in accordance with the trust indenture, for an equivalent amount of 2026 Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest and any negotiated premium thereon.

The premium and paid interest were paid out of funds raised from the February 2022 Private Placement. The total unamortized debt premium and debt issuance costs of $2,153, related to the modified portion of the 13.0% Term Debt, was being amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest method. The Company incurred $7,189 in creditor fees in connection with the modified 13.0% Term Debt and 2026 Notes and $301 in third-party legal fees related to 2026 Notes, which were capitalized and were being amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest rate method.

On May 29, 2025, the 2026 Notes were exchanged for the 2028 Notes, see 2025 Debt Transactions (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes). At the time of the exchange, the remaining unamortized debt premium, debt issuance costs, collector fees, and third party legal fees of $2,216 were written off.

2027 Convertible Notes

On March 19, 2024, the Company closed a private placement (the “March 2024 Private Placement”) of $25,750 aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2027 (the “2027 Convertible Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $15,600. The 2027 Convertible Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 80.0% of face value. The 2027 Convertible Notes accrued interest in arrears which was payable semi-annually and were scheduled to mature on March 19, 2027. In connection with the offering of the 2027 Convertible Notes, the Company exchanged $5,000 of the Company’s existing 6.0% 2025 Convertible Notes. Through June 30, 2025, 983,604 shares were issued to convert $300 principal.

Table of Contents

The principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes and the conversion price were denominated in U.S. dollars. As the debt was issued out of the Company's Canadian Holding company, but the functional currency of the Company is US Dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2027 Convertible Notes therefore represented an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2027 Convertible Notes, the Company was unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $2,632 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount and debt issuance costs of $5,952, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2027 Convertible Notes. The Company fair valued the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative were recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt discount and debt issuance costs were being amortized over the term of the 2027 Convertible Notes.

On May 29, 2025, the 2027 Convertible Notes were exchanged for the 2028 Notes, see 2025 Debt Transactions (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes). At the time of the exchange, the remaining unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs of $3,759 were written off.

2025 Convertible Notes

On June 29, 2021, the Company completed an offering of 6.0% Secured Convertible Notes Due 2025 (“2025 Convertible Notes”) for an aggregate principal amount of $74.5 million. The 2025 Convertible Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and accrued interest payable semiannually in arrears and were scheduled to mature on June 29, 2025, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased. The 2025 Convertible Notes shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, from the date of issuance until the date that is 10 days prior to their maturity date into Common Shares of the Company at a conversion price equal to $6.49 payable on the business day prior to the date of conversion, adjusted downwards for any cash dividends paid to holders of Common Shares and other customary adjustments. The Company may redeem the 2025 Convertible Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after June 29, 2023, if the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares trading on the Canadian Stock Exchange or Cboe Canada for 15 of the 30 trading days immediately preceding the day on which the Company exercises its redemption right, exceeds 120.0% of the conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes at a Redemption Price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the Redemption Date.

The 2025 Convertible Notes required interest-only payments until June 29, 2025, at a rate of 6.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in June and December and commencing in December 2021. The 2025 Convertible Notes were schedule to mature on June 29, 2025. The Company incurred financing costs of $3,190 in connection with the 2025 Convertible Notes. The principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the conversion price were denominated in U.S. dollars. As the debt was issued out of the Company's Canadian Holding company, but the functional currency of the Company is US Dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2025 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company was unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $15,099 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Company fair valued the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative were recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt discount was amortized over the term of the 2025 Convertible Notes.

On May 29, 2025, the 2025 Convertible Notes were exchanged for the 2028 Notes, see 2025 Debt Transactions (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes). At the time of the exchange, the remaining unamortized finance costs of $973, were written off.

2025 Debt Transaction (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes)

On February 27, 2025, the Company entered into a support agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with certain holders (the “Supporting Noteholders”) of the aggregate principal amount of issued Senior Notes (as defined below) regarding the exchange of their Senior Notes for new notes having a later maturity date and additional covenants (the “2025 Debt Transaction”). The Senior Notes consist of: (i) the 2025 Convertible Notes; (ii) the 2026 Notes; and (iii) the 2027 Notes (together with the 2025 Convertible Notes and the 2026 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). Under the terms of the 2025 Debt Transaction, among other provisions, the holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the 2026 Notes exchanged their Senior Notes for an equal principal amount of 9.25% Senior Secured Notes due December 31, 2028 (subject to two six-month extension options available to the Company upon payment of a 0.5% fee, payable in cash) (the “2028 Notes”) and the holders of the 2027 Notes received either (i) an equal principal amount of the 2028 Notes or (ii) if elected, an equal principal amount of newly issued 9.0% convertible notes, which have the same conversion price as the existing 2027 Notes but will the same extended maturity date as the 2028 Notes (the “2028 Convertible Notes”, and together with the 2028 Notes, the “New Notes”).

The 2028 Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes require interest-only payments until December 31, 2028, payable semi-annually in June and December and commencing in December 2025 until maturity. The Company incurred financing costs of $12,155 in connection with the 2025 Debt Transaction. The principal amount of the 2028 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the debt was issued out of the Company's Canadian Holding company, but the functional currency of the Company is US Dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2028 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2028 Convertible Notes, the Company is unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $230 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2028 Convertible Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt financing costs are amortized over the term of the 2028 Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes.

12.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors and senior management that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited.

Additionally, the Company may be contingently liable with respect to other claims incidental to the ordinary course of its operations. Except as described below, in the opinion of management, and based on management’s consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate outcome of such other matters will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company. Accordingly, no provision has been made in these consolidated financial statements for losses, if any, which might result from the ultimate disposition of these matters should they arise.

Murchinson Ltd., an investment manager of holders of 2025 Convertible Notes and 2027 Convertible Notes, subsequently exchanged for 2028 Notes (the “Applicant”), filed an application in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the "Court") on March 27, 2025, opposing the 2025 Debt Transaction and claiming the transaction was oppressive to the Applicant. The application filed by the Applicant also claimed breach of contract and civil conspiracy. The Applicant sought from the court, among other forms of relief, that the 2025 Debt Transaction be declared unlawful under the terms of the Canadian Business Corporations Act, an award of unspecified damages, and recovery of costs. By order dated May 21, 2025, the Court ruled in favor of the Company and the 2025 Debt Transaction was subsequently closed. Murchinson Ltd. has filed appeals to the Court of Appeal for Toronto that are currently pending.

The following table summarizes the valuation techniques and key inputs used in the fair value measurement of Level 3 financial instruments:

Financial asset/financial<br>liability	Valuation techniques	Significant unobservable<br>inputs	Relationship of unobservable<br>inputs to fair value
Derivative liability	Market approach	Conversion period	Increase or decrease in conversion period will result in an increase or decrease in fair value

There has been no change in the valuation methodology for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The carrying amounts of cash and restricted cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities, the current portion of long-term debt, and lease liabilities as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these items and are not included in the table above. The Company’s other long-term liabilities and long-term debt approximate fair value due to the market rate of interest used on initial recognition.

In addition to the disclosures for assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, companies are required to disclose the estimated fair values of all financial instruments, even if they are not presented at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of financial instruments are estimates based upon market conditions and perceived risks as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. These estimates require management's judgment and may not be indicative of the future fair values of the assets and liabilities.

Revenues

The decrease in revenue of $38,840 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by the net decline in revenue of $10,902 in our existing retail and wholesale operations and a decline of $30,387 from the sale or closure of certain operations. This was partly offset by changes in regulation to adult use which contributed to a revenue growth of $2,449 during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior period.

Cost of Sales

The decrease in cost of sales of $7,941 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by a cost of sales decrease from the sale or closure of certain operations of $17,435. This was partly offset by an increase of $9,494 in our existing retail and wholesale operations, including from inventory impairment.

Gross Profit

The decrease in gross profit of $30,899 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was directly attributable to the decline in revenues and the decline in cost of sales as described above.

Operating Expenses

The decrease of $7,065 in operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily attributable to decreases in operating facilities costs of $3,150, depreciation and amortization of $2,242, operating office and general expenses of $1,585, professional fees of $367, and other fees and expenses of $873. This was partially offset by increases in salaries and benefits of expenses of $638 and advertisement and promotion expense of $523 for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Other Income / (expense), Net

The increase in other expenses, net of $6,321 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to increases in interest expense, net of $4,969, loss on disposal group of $3,676, change in fair value of investments of $713, change in fair value of the derivative liability of $377, and a decrease in rental income of $34. This was partially offset by decreases in restructuring expense of $3,558, loss on held for sale of $651, and interest expense on leases of $183.

Provisions for Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $43,221 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to an income tax expense of $9,642 for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

decline in revenue of $23,854 in our existing retail and wholesale operations and a decline of $56,319 from the sale or closure of certain

The increase in other expenses, net of $14,610 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to a increases in change in fair value of investments of $6,520, loss on held for sale of $2,868, loss on disposal group of $6,703, interest expense, net of $5,089, and a decrease in rental income of $67. This was partially offset by decreases change in fair value of the derivative liability of $1,970, restructuring expense of $3,438, interest on leases of $393, and other income (expense), net of $836.

Provisions for Income Taxes The Company recorded income tax expense of $44,015 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to an income tax expense of $18,510 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Non-GAAP Measures

We use certain non-GAAP measures, referenced in this MD&A. These measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation from nor as a substitute for our financial information reported under GAAP. We use non-GAAP measures including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin which may be calculated

differently by other companies. These non-GAAP measures and metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and liquidity and thus highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented. We also recognize that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of companies within our industry. Finally, we use non-GAAP measures and metrics in order to facilitate evaluation of operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of executive compensation.

The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss for the period to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024:

Adjusted EBITDA

The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily driven by declines in gross profit in the ongoing wholesale and retail operations and through restructuring and disposal activity, partially offset by improved leverage of revenues across selling, general, and administrative expenses such as facility costs, salary costs, and benefit costs.

Our future financial results are subject to significant potential fluctuations caused by, among other things, growth of sales volume in new and existing markets and our ability to control operating expenses. In addition, our financial results may be impacted significantly by changes to the regulatory environment in which we operate, on a local, state, and federal level.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our business, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Historically, we have relied on external financing as our primary source of liquidity. Our ability to fund our operations and to make capital expenditures depends on our ability to successfully secure financing through issuance of debt or equity, as well as our ability to improve our future operating performance and cash flows, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.

Table of Contents

We are currently meeting our obligations and are earning revenues from our operations. However, we have sustained losses since inception and may require additional capital in the future. We estimate that based on our current business operations and working capital, we will continue to meet our obligations in the short term. As we continue to focus on profitability, we endeavor to remain opportunistic on growth through expansion or acquisition, therefore our cash flow requirements and obligations could materially change.

Recent Financing Transactions

2026 Notes

On February 3, 2022, the Company closed a private placement (the “February 2022 Private Placement”) of $185,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.50% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $153,250. The 2026 Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 100.0% of face value. The 2026 Notes accrued interest in arrears which was payable semi-annually and were scheduled to mature on February 3, 2026, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Company may redeem the 2026 Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after February 3, 2024, as more particularly described in the fourth supplemental trust indenture governing the 2026 Notes. In connection with the offering of the 2026 Notes, the Company exchanged $31,750 of the Company’s existing 13.0% senior secured first-lien notes (the “13.0% Term Debt”), pursuant to private agreements in accordance with the trust indenture, for an equivalent amount of 2026 Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest and any negotiated premium thereon.

The premium and paid interest were paid out of funds raised from the February 2022 Private Placement. The total unamortized debt premium and debt issuance costs of $2,153, related to the modified portion of the 13.0% Term Debt, was being amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest method. The Company incurred $7,189 in creditor fees in connection with the modified 13.0% Term Debt and 2026 Notes and $301 in third-party legal fees related to 2026 Notes, which were capitalized and were being amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest rate method.

On May 29, 2025, the 2026 Notes were exchanged for the 2028 Notes, see 2025 Debt Transactions (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes). At the time of the exchange, the remaining unamortized debt premium, debt issuance costs, collector fees, and third party legal fees of $2,216 were written off.

2027 Convertible Notes

On March 19, 2024, the Company closed a private placement (the “March 2024 Private Placement”) of $25,750 aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $15,600. The 2027 Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 80.0% of face value. The 2027 Notes accrued interest in arrears which was payable semi-annually and were scheduled to mature on March 19, 2027. In connection with the offering of the 2027 Notes, the Company exchanged $5,000 of the Company’s existing 6.0% 2025 Convertible Notes. Through June 30, 2025, 983,604 shares were issued to convert $300 principal.

The principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes and the conversion price were denominated in U.S. dollars. As the debt was issued out of the Company's Canadian Holding company, but the functional currency of the Company is US Dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2027 Convertible Notes therefore represented an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2027 Convertible Notes, the Company was unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $2,632 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount and debt issuance costs of $5,952, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2027 Convertible Notes. The Company fair valued the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative were recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt discount and debt issuance costs were being amortized over the term of the 2027 Convertible Notes.

On May 29, 2025, the 2027 Convertible Notes were exchanged for the 2028 Notes, see 2025 Debt Transactions (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes). At the time of the exchange, the remaining unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs of $3,759 were written off.

2025 Convertible Notes

On June 29, 2021, the Company completed an offering of 6.0% Secured Convertible Notes Due 2025 (“2025 Convertible Notes”) for an aggregate principal amount of $74.5 million. The 2025 Convertible Notes were senior secured obligations of the Company and accrued interest payable semiannually in arrears and were scheduled to mature on June 29, 2025, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased.

The 2025 Convertible Notes shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, from the date of issuance until the date that is 10 days prior to their maturity date into Common Shares of the Company at a conversion price equal to $6.49 payable on the business day prior to the date of

conversion, adjusted downwards for any cash dividends paid to holders of Common Shares and other customary adjustments. The Company may redeem the 2025 Convertible Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after June 29, 2023, if the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares trading on the Canadian Stock Exchange or Cboe Canada for 15 of the 30 trading days immediately preceding the day on which the Company exercises its redemption right, exceeds 120.0% of the conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes at a Redemption Price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the Redemption Date.

The 2025 Convertible Notes required interest-only payments until June 29, 2025, at a rate of 6.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in June and December and commencing in December 2021. The 2025 Convertible Notes were scheduled to mature on June 29, 2025. The Company incurred financing costs of $3,190 in connection with the 2025 Convertible Notes. The principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the conversion price were denominated in U.S. dollars. As the debt was issued out of the Company's Canadian Holding company, but the functional currency of the Company is US Dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2025 Convertible Notes therefore represented an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company was unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $15,099 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Company fair valued the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative were recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt discount was amortized over the term of the 2025 Convertible Notes.

On May 29, 2025, the 2025 Convertible Notes were exchanged for the 2028 Notes, see 2025 Debt Transactions (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes). At the time of the exchange, the remaining unamortized finance costs of $973, were written off.

January 2024 Debt Exchange

On January 22, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement, as amended on June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2024 (the “Exchange Agreement”), with certain holders of the Company’s 6.0% senior secured 2025 Convertible Notes (the “Holders”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to the repurchase of up to $25 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for Common Shares (the “January 2024 Debt Exchange”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holders shall:

•by January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.41 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5 days volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice;

•provided that the five-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the Exchange is greater than C$0.47 as of the close of trading at 4:01pm on January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at the Initial Exchange Price on or prior to February 29, 2024; and

•provided that the February Exchange is completed and the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe is greater than C$0.87 for 5 consecutive trading days, provided that, the trading volume of the Common Shares on Cboe was equal to or greater than 600,000 Common Shares on the applicable trading dates, from the period commencing on January 1, 2024 and ending on June 30, 2025, (which date the parties extended to December 31, 2024), transfer in three separate equal tranches, an aggregate of $15 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.57 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5 days volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice, in each case, subject to adjustment in certain instances, on or prior to December 31, 2024.

Through December 31, 2024, $10 million of the potential $25 million exchange had been completed. The term of the Exchange Agreement expired as of January 31, 2025.

2025 Debt Transaction (the 2028 Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes)

Table of Contents

On February 27, 2025, the Company entered into a support agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with certain holders (the “Supporting Noteholders”) of the aggregate principal amount of issued Senior Notes (as defined below) regarding the exchange of their Senior Notes for new notes having a later maturity date and additional covenants (the “2025 Debt Transaction”). The Senior Notes consist of: (i) the 2025 Convertible Notes; (ii) the 2026 Notes; and (iii) the 2027 Convertible Notes (together with the 2025 Convertible Notes and the 2026 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). Under the terms of the 2025 Debt Transaction, among other provisions, the holders of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the 2026 Notes exchanged their Senior Notes for an equal principal amount of 9.25% Senior Secured Notes due December 31, 2028 (subject to two six-month extension options available to the Company upon payment of a 0.5% fee, payable in cash) (the new “2028 Notes”) and the holders of the 2027 Convertible Notes received either (i) an equal principal amount of the 2028 Notes or (ii) if elected, an equal principal amount of newly issued 9.0% convertible notes, which have the same conversion price as the existing 2027 Convertible Notes but will the same extended maturity date as the 2028 Notes (the new “2028 Convertible Notes”, and together with the 2028 Notes, the “New Notes”).

The 2028 Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes require interest-only payments until December 31, 2028, payable semi-annually in June and December and commencing in December 2025 until maturity. The Company incurred financing costs of $12,155 in connection with the 2025 Debt Transaction. The principal amount of the 2028 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the debt was issued out of the Company's Canadian Holding company, but the functional currency of the Company is US Dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2028 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2028 Convertible Notes, the Company is unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $230 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2028 Convertible Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt financing costs are amortized over the term of the 2028 Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes.

In addition, as part of the 2025 Debt Transaction, the Company issued 118,209,105 warrants to the Company shareholders on a pro rata basis, see Note 10 Warrants.

The 2028 Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes are secured by a first-priority security interest in all present and after-acquired personal property of the Company, including a pledge of the Equity Interests owned by the Issuer and each Guarantor; and a collateral assignment of leases in respect of certain leasehold property and all of the Company's interests therein as defined in the Amended and Restated Trust Indenture.

The Company completed its 2025 Debt Transaction effective May 29, 2025 following receipt of court approval.

Effects of Inflation

Rising inflation rates have had a substantial impact on our financial performance to date and may have an impact on our financial performance in the future as our ability to pass on an increase in costs is not entirely within our control.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the future that affect assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

Judgements, estimates, and assumptions with the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are described below.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, deposits and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, current taxes payable and other current liabilities like interest payable and payroll liabilities, derivative liability, debt, and lease liabilities. The fair values of cash and restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, deposits, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities like interest payable and payroll liabilities, short-term debt and lease liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term to maturity or because of the market rate of interest used on initial recognition. The Cannabist Company classifies its derivative liability as fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).

Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs to fair value measurements. The three levels of fair value contained within the hierarchy are:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Our assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include investments, assets and liabilities held for sale, long-lived assets, and indefinite-lived intangible assets. We review the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually, for indefinite-lived intangible assets. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the asset be recorded at its fair value. The resulting fair value measurements of the assets are considered Level 3 measurements.

We are exposed, in varying degrees, to a variety of financial instrument related risks. Our risk exposures and the impact on our financial instruments is summarized below:

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of a potential loss to us if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The maximum credit exposure at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, is the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, subscription receivable, accounts receivable and notes receivable. We do not have significant credit risk with respect to our customers. All cash deposits are with regulated U.S. financial institutions.

We provide credit to our customers in the normal course of business and have established credit evaluation and monitoring processes to mitigate credit risk but have limited risk as the majority of our sales are transacted with cash.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations associated with financial liabilities. We manage liquidity risk through the management of our capital structure. Our approach to managing liquidity is to estimate cash requirements from operations, capital expenditures and investments and ensure that we have sufficient liquidity to fund our ongoing operations and to settle obligations and liabilities when due.

To date, we have incurred significant cumulative net losses and we have not generated positive cash flows from our operations. We have therefore depended on financing from the sale of our equity and from debt financing to fund our operations. Overall, we do not expect the net cash contribution from our operations and investments to be positive in the near term, and we therefore expect to rely on financing from equity or debt.

Market Risk

In addition to business opportunities and challenges applicable to any business operating in a fast-growing environment, our business operates in a highly regulated and multi-jurisdictional industry, which is subject to potentially significant changes outside of our control as individual states as well as the U.S. federal government may impose restrictions on our ability to grow our business profitably or enact new laws and regulations that open up new markets.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of our financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Our cash deposits bear interest at market rates.

Table of Contents

Currency Risk

Our operating results and financial position are reported in thousands of U.S. dollars. We may enter into financial transactions denominated in other currencies, which would result in your operations and financial position becoming subject to currency transaction and translation risks.

As of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we had no hedging agreements in place with respect to foreign exchange rates. We have not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible currency risks at this time.

Price Risk

Price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity or market prices. We are subject to the risk of price variability pursuant to our products due to competitive or regulatory pressures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no significant material changes to the market risks as disclosed in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K. See also Financial Risk Management in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that it is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the three months ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Employee and the Company now desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement and the Amended and Restated At-Will Employment Agreement on the terms and conditions set forth herein. In consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:

1.Eligibility For Employment. The Immigration Reform and Control Act requires all employees of U.S. companies to have evidence of identity and authorization to work in the U.S. Employee represents and warrants that Employee has such authorization and will provide the Company with evidence thereof on or before the Effective Date of this Agreement. Employee further acknowledges that the Company may perform a background check on Employee.

2.At-Will Employment. Employee's employment hereunder shall be at-will and can be terminated at any time, for any or no reason, and with or without cause.

The Company reserves the right from time to time to change the nature and scope of Employee's duties. Employee hereby agrees and understands that the primary place of work is the Employee’s home office in Milton, Georgia, and that Employee may also be required to travel, including travel outside of the United States of America, in furtherance of the duties of the position.

4.Exclusive Service. Employee hereby agrees to devote all of his reasonable efforts and business time, attention, and energies to the performance of his duties under this Agreement and to the Company; provided that Employee may serve on the board of directors of purely philanthropic or civic organizations or on the board of directors of one other company that is not competitive with the business of the Company ("Corporate Boards"), in each case only to the extent that such service or participation does not interfere with Employee's employment with the

Company or duties under this Agreement. Employee may serve on the board of directors of additional companies that are not competitive with the business of the Company to the extent that such service or participation does not interfere with Employee's employment with the Company or duties under this Agreement and Employee has advised the Company prior to commencing, and the Company has consented (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) to such additional Corporate Board service.

5.Restrictive Covenants.

5.1Employee understands that the Company has spent considerable time, effort and expense developing proprietary information and has taken reasonable measures to protect its secrecy. Therefore, as a condition of employment with the Company, Employee shall execute the Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Non-Disclosure, which is attached to the Original Agreement as Exhibit A and incorporated by reference herein (the "NDA" or "Exhibit A"). The NDA is intended to survive and does survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. The obligations, duties and liabilities of the Employee pursuant to Exhibit A are continuing, absolute and unconditional, and shall remain in full force and effect, despite any termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.

5.2Employee has carefully read and considers this Section 5 and the NDA to be fair, reasonable and reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the Company. These provisions may be waived only by a written amendment signed by the parties. In the event Employee breaches any of the covenants in the NDA, any entitlement Employee may have to severance payments pursuant to Section 7 shall be forfeited.
