Explanatory Note
On November 14, 2022, Columbia Care Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Initial Form 8-K”). The Initial Form 8-K included a press release announcing financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 (the “Earnings Release”) and provided an investor presentation to accompany the press release (the “Investor Presentation”), furnished as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to the Initial Form 8-K. On the same day, the Company also hosted a conference call to discuss financial and operating results for the third quarter (the “Earnings Call”) and filed the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 (the “Form 10-Q”).
The Company is furnishing this Amended Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K/A”) to correct an isolated typographical error with respect to the Q3 2022 retail and wholesale revenue growth percentages (the “Figures”), which are 2.3% and 3.3%, respectively, that were included in the Earnings Release and were referenced in the Investor Presentation and on the Earnings Call. The Figures were correctly reported as 2.3% and 3.3% in the Form 10-Q. Although the Figures are not material, the Company is, through this Form 8-K/A, updating its Earnings Release and Investor Presentation in order to include the correct Figures (the “Revised Earnings Release” and the “Revised Investor Presentation”). This typographical correction only relates to the Earnings Release and the Investor Presentation for the third quarter of 2022, and no prior quarters are implicated or impacted. For purposes of clarity, there are no changes to total revenue, the total revenue growth rate or any figures contained in the Form 10-Q. This Form 8-K/A, including the exhibits attached hereto, amends, restates and supersedes in its entirety the Initial Form 8-K, including the exhibits attached thereto.
| Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On November 18, the Company issued the Revised Earnings Release and the Revised Investor Presentation. A copy of the Revised Earnings Release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Revised Investor Presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and incorporated herein by reference. This Form 8-K/A is not intended to, nor does it, reflect events occurring after the filing of the Initial Form 8-K, and the Earnings Release and Investor Presentation are not being modified or updated in any way other than to reflect the changes described above.
The information furnished under this Item 2.02 and in the accompanying Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference in such filing.

Columbia Care Reports Third Quarter 2022 Results
Quarterly Revenue of $133 Million, an Increase of 2.4% QoQ
Gross Profit of $52 Million, an Increase of 2.5% QoQ

NEW YORK, N.Y., November 14, 2022 – Columbia Care Inc. (NEO: CCHW) (CSE: CCHW) (OTCQX: CCHWF) (FSE: 3LP) (“Columbia Care” or the “Company”) today reported financial and operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. All financial information presented in this release is in U.S. GAAP, unaudited and in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted, and comparisons to prior quarter and prior year are made on an as-converted basis under U.S. GAAP, unless otherwise noted.
“Our third quarter results are a testament to the embedded growth in our strategic footprint and the operational excellence we have developed over time. We achieved solid sequential topline growth and standout profitability improvements in another challenging quarter, with revenue increasing 2.4% sequentially to $133 million in the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA improved 74% over Q2 to $21 million, with sixteen of our seventeen markets generating positive EBITDA in the quarter. We continue to drive revenue and EBITDA growth in our emerging markets such as New Jersey, Virginia, and West Virginia, two of which are now among our top five markets by revenue and EBITDA. Based on the operational changes we’ve made, we’ve seen stabilization in our most mature markets – California and Colorado – materialize,” said Nicholas Vita, CEO of Columbia Care.
Vita continued, “We have made strategic operational decisions to prioritize quality production and efficiency, and redoubled efforts to manage costs as we face persistent macroeconomic headwinds that directly and materially impact the consumer wallet. Although we continue to anticipate a more challenging operating environment over the next 12-18 months, we are encouraged by the ongoing resilience we’ve seen throughout our markets and by the enthusiasm of the cannabis community. Furthermore, the difficult decisions we made 12-18 months ago are beginning to pay dividends as the efficiencies in cultivation and manufacturing positively impact our wholesale ramp while continued rationalization of SG&A amplifies the EBITDA improvements. The diversity of our footprint, including meaningful operations in the markets that are transitioning to adult use, is key to our growth. As we near the end of 2022, we are excited about the journey ahead where, together with Cresco Labs, we will create the leading company in cannabis.”

2022 Outlook
Columbia Care expects sequential topline performance to be flat to low-single digit growth in the fourth quarter. In addition, the Company expects an Adjusted EBITDA margin in the mid-to-high teens in the fourth quarter.
At this time, Columbia Care’s 2022 outlook does not assume any additional changes in the regulatory environment in markets where Columbia Care currently operates. This also excludes potential future market changes where a conversion from medical only to adult use is under consideration by a governor and/or legislature. The outlook does not assume any asset sales prior to Q1 2023. See “Caution Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” below for further discussion. This new revised outlook replaces all prior outlook and guidance provided by the Company.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, Columbia Care refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin. These measures do not have any standardized meaning in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Columbia Care considers certain non-GAAP measures to be meaningful indicators of the performance of its business. These measures are not recognized measures under GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to (and may be calculated differently by) other companies that present similar measures. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation from nor as a substitute for our financial information reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance 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.
With respect to non-GAAP financial measures, the Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) income taxes; and (iii) interest expense and debt amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) adjustments for acquisition and other non-core costs; (iii) fair value changes on derivative liabilities; (iv) fair value mark-up for acquired inventory; and (v) other one-time of non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as gross profit before the fair mark-up for acquired inventory. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as gross margin before the fair mark-up for acquired inventory.
The Company views these non-GAAP financial measures as a means to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the Company’s historical operating results and comparison to competitors’ operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measure may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measures are included in this press release and a further discussion of some of these items will be contained in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Exhibit 99.2 THIRD QUARTER 2022 INVESTOR PRESENTATION NEO:CCHW | CSE:CCHW | OTCQX:CCHWF | FSE:3LP November 2022
2 DISCLAIMER AND FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Disclaimer Columbia Care Inc. (the “Company” or “Columbia Care”) derives a substantial portion of its revenues from the cannabis industry in certain U.S. states, which industry is illegal under U.S. federal Law. Columbia Care is directly involved in both the adult-use and medical cannabis industry in the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Massachusetts and New Jersey, and in the medical cannabis industry in the states of Delaware, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, the District of Columbia, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia, which states have regulated such industries. The cultivation, processing, sale and use of cannabis are illegal under federal law pursuant to the U.S. Controlled Substance Act of 1970 (the “CSA”). Under the CSA, the policies and regulations of the United States Federal Government and its agencies are that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities, including cultivation and the personal use of cannabis, are prohibited. The Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution establishes that the United States Constitution and federal laws made pursuant to it are paramount and in case of conflict between federal and state law, the federal law shall apply. Until 2018, the federal government provided guidance to federal law enforcement agencies and banking institutions through a series of United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) memoranda. The most recent such memorandum was drafted by former Deputy Attorney General James Cole in 2013 (the “Cole Memo”). On January 4, 2018, former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued a memorandum to U.S. district attorneys that rescinded previous guidance from the U.S. Department of Justice specific to cannabis enforcement in the United States, including the Cole Memo (as defined herein). The former Attorneys General who succeeded former Attorney General Sessions following his resignation did not provide a clear policy directive for the United States as it pertains to state-legal marijuana-related activities. President Joseph R. Biden was sworn in as the 46th President of the U.S. on January 20, 2021. President Biden nominated Merrick Garland to serve as Attorney General in his administration, and he was confirmed on March 10, 2021. It is not yet known whether the Department of Justice under President Biden and Attorney General Garland will re-adopt the Cole Memorandum or announce a substantive marijuana enforcement policy. Attorney General Garland stated at a confirmation hearing before the United States Senate that “It does not seem to me a useful use of limited resources that we have, to be pursuing prosecutions in states that have legalized and that are regulating the use of marijuana, either medically or otherwise. I don’t think that’s a useful use.” Attorney General Garland reiterated this view at a Senate Appropriations subcommittee hearing on April 26, 2022. Nonetheless, there is no guarantee that state laws legalizing and regulating the sale and use of marijuana will not be repealed or overturned, or that local governmental authorities will not limit the applicability of state laws within their respective jurisdictions. Unless and until the United States Congress amends the CSA with respect to marijuana (and as to the timing or scope of any such potential amendments there can be no assurance), there is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current U.S. federal law. Currently, in the absence of uniform federal guidance, as had been established by the Cole memorandum, enforcement priorities are determined by respective United States Attorneys. Columbia Care makes no medical or treatment claims about our products, implied or otherwise, and each patient should consult their treating physician, explore all options, and discuss their personal health to determine whether he or she may be a potential candidate for medical marijuana or other cannabis-derived products. Our products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). In addition, our products have not been approved by the FDA to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. In addition, we have not conducted clinical trials for the use of our products. Any references to quality, consistency, efficacy and safety of our products are not intended to imply that such claims have been verified in clinical trials. Non-GAAP Financial Measures In this presentation, Columbia Care may refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Margin. These measures do not have any standardized meaning in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Columbia Care considers certain non-GAAP measures to be meaningful indicators of the performance of its business. A reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measure is included in this presentation and a further discussion of some of these items is contained in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Cautionary Note Regarding Securities Laws This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities of Columbia Care, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Risk Factors For a detailed description of risk factors associated with Columbia Care, refer to the “Risk Factors” section in Columbia Care’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and in Columbia Care’s Form 10 dated May 9, 2022, which are available on EDGAR at www.sec.gov and SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
