THE CANNABIST COMPANY HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024, and 2023
(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except for share and per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
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 health and wellness solutions and derivative products to qualified patients and consumers. The Company’s head office and principal address is 680 Fifth Ave. 24th Floor, New York, New York 10019. 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. Following the RTO, the Company’s Common Shares were listed on Cboe Canada (formerly known as the NEO Exchange), trading under the symbol “CCHW”. 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”. The Company’s Common Shares are also listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “3LP”.
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 (“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, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current year ending December 31, 2024. 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, 2023, and 2022 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 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.
Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC, on March 13, 2024. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

The principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the functional currency of the Company is Canadian 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 represent 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 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 $

Certain share-based equity awards were excluded from the computation of dilutive loss per share because inclusion of these awards would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
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. 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.

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 liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 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, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These estimates require management's judgment and may not be indicative of the future fair values of the assets and liabilities.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc. (“The Cannabist Company”, the “Company”, “us”, “our” or “we”) is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, The Cannabist Company's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the accompanying notes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Except for historical information, the discussion in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Future results could differ materially from those discussed below for many reasons, including the risks described in “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Item 1A-Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2024 and subsequent securities filings.
The Cannabist Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Financial information presented in this MD&A is presented in thousands of United States dollars (“$” or “US$”), unless otherwise indicated.
OVERVIEW OF THE CANNABIST COMPANY
Our principal business activity is the production and sale of cannabis. We strive to be the premier provider of cannabis-related products in each of the markets in which we operate. Our mission is to improve lives by providing cannabis-based health and wellness solutions through community partnerships, research, education and the responsible use of our products as a natural means to improve the quality of life of our patients and customers.
THE CANNABIST COMPANY OBJECTIVES AND FACTORS AFFECTING OUR PERFORMANCE
As one of the largest fully integrated operators in the cannabis industry, our strategy to grow our business is comprised of the following key components:
Our performance and future success are dependent on several factors. These factors are also subject to inherent risks and challenges, some of which are discussed below.
Branding
We have established a national branding strategy across each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Maintaining and growing our brand appeal is critical to our continued success. Effective September 2023, the Company changed its name from “Columbia Care Inc.” to “The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc.” reflecting the Company's "Cannabist" national retail brand that was established in 2021.
Regulation
We are subject to the local and federal laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We hold all required licenses for the production and distribution of our products in the jurisdictions in which we operate and continuously monitor changes in laws, regulations, treaties and agreements.
Product Innovation and Consumer Trends
Our business is subject to changing consumer trends and preferences, which is dependent, in part, on continued consumer interest in new products. The success of new product offerings, depends upon a number of factors, including our ability to (i) accurately anticipate customer needs; (ii) develop new products that meet these needs; (iii) successfully commercialize new products; (iv) price products competitively; (v) produce and deliver products in sufficient volumes and on a timely basis; and (vi) differentiate product offerings from those of competitors.
Growth and Profitability Strategies
We have a successful history of growing revenue and we believe we have a strong strategy aimed at increasing profitability. Our future depends, in part, on our ability to implement our strategy including (i) product innovations; (ii) penetration of current and new markets; (iii) growth of wholesale revenue through third party retailers and distributors; (iv) future development of e-commerce and home delivery distribution capabilities; (v) expansion of our cultivation and manufacturing capacity; and (vi) controlling costs. Our ability to implement this strategy depends, among other things, on our ability to develop new products that appeal to consumers, maintain and expand brand
17
loyalty, maintain and improve product quality and brand recognition, maintain and improve competitive position in our current markets, and identify and successfully enter and market products in new geographic areas and segments.
SELECTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following tables set forth selected consolidated financial information derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the respective accompanying notes prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
During the periods discussed herein, our accounting policies have remained consistent. The selected and summarized consolidated financial information below may not be indicative of our future performance.

Revenues
The decrease in revenue of $4,054 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by the net decline in revenue of $2,770 in our existing retail and wholesale operations and a decline of $1,861 from the sale or closure of certain operations. This was partly offset by the expansion of new retail facilities which contributed to a revenue growth of $576 during the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior period.
Cost of Sales
The increase in cost of sales of $16 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by a cost of sales increase of $700 in our existing retail and wholesale operations, including from inventory impairment, and by $200 from the expansion of new retail facilities. This was partly offset by a decline of $884 from the sale or closure of certain operations during the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior period.
Gross Profit
The decrease in gross profit of $4,070 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was directly attributable to the decline in revenues and increased cost of sales as described above. The decline in gross margin (percent) was primarily driven by production facilities poised for future economies of scale and price compression.
Operating Expenses
The decrease of $12,027 in operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily attributable to a decrease in salary and benefits expenses of $11,829, depreciation and amortization of $1,778, professional fees of $892, advertisement and promotion expenses of $429, operating facilities costs of $201, and other fees and expenses of $407. This was partially offset by an increase in operating office and general expenses of $3,509.
Other Expense, Net
The decrease in other expense, net of $10,774 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to a decrease in loss on disposal group of $9,649, interest expense on debt of $3,240, amortization of debt premium of $26, interest expense on leases of $164, change in fair value of the derivative liability of $18, other interest expense (income), net of $26, and an increase in other income $1,093. This was partially offset by an increase in restructuring expense $1,900, rental income of $847, amortization of debt discount of $225, loss on deconsolidation of $413, and amortization of debt issuance costs of $57.
Provisions for Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $9,642 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to an income tax expense of $6,305 for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

The decrease in other expense, net of $13,424 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on debt of $6,320, loss on disposal of group of $9,049, loss on deconsolidation from the sale or closure of certain operations of $1,849, amortization of debt discount of $146, amortization of debt issuance costs $32, interest expense on leases of $322, an increase in other interest income of $51 and an increase in other income, net by $884. This was partially offset by an increase in the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $2,299, a decrease in rental income earned of $1,632, and an increase in restructuring expense of $1,298.
Provisions for Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $18,510 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to an income tax expense of $16,994 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

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.

Adjusted EBITDA
The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, 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
21
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.
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. As of June 30, 2024, we did not have any significant external capital requirements.
Recent Financing Transactions
September 2023 Offering
On September 18, 2023, the Company entered into subscription agreements with the September 2023 Investors for the purchase and sale of 22,244,210 September 2023 Units at a price of C$1.52 per September 2023 Unit pursuant to a private placement, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$33.8 million or approximately $25 million. Each September 2023 Unit consists of one Common Share (or Common Share equivalent) and one half of one September 2023 Warrant that entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of C$1.96 per Common Share, a 29% premium to issue, for a period of three years following the closing of the Initial Tranche. The Initial Tranche consisted of an aggregate of 21,887,240 Common Shares, 11,122,105 September 2023 Warrants and 356,970 September 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants that provide the holder the right to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.0001 per Common Share. The September 2023 Offering closed on September 21, 2023.
The Company used the proceeds from the September 2023 Offering to reduce its outstanding indebtedness.
The September 2023 Investors had the option to purchase $25 million in additional September 2023 Units at a price equal to the Issue Price, upon written notice to the Company at any time up to November 2, 2023, which was not exercised. In connection with the September 2023 Offering, the Company and the September 2023 Investors entered into a customary registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 on October 17, 2023 to register the resale of the Common Shares underlying the September 2023 Units. The September 2023 Units were subject to limited lock-up requirements.
January 2024 Debt Exchange
On January 22, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with certain holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s 6.0% senior secured 2025 Convertible Notes, pursuant to which the Company agreed to repurchase (the “Repurchase”) of up to $25 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for Common Shares.
Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holders shall:
In the event the conditions are fulfilled and the Holders fail to Transfer their 2025 Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the Holders to Transfer some or all of the
22
portion of the $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes still held by the Holders. Assuming all of the conditions are fulfilled, and the entire $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes are Transferred for Common Shares issued at the minimum prices set out in the Exchange Agreement, a maximum of 68,564,698 Common Shares would be issued in connection with the Repurchase. Through June 30, 2024, $10 million of the potential $25 million exchange has been completed.
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 are senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 80.0% of face value. The 2027 Notes accrue interest in arrears which is payable semi-annually and 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.
The Company determined that the 2027 Notes represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a fixed amount of liability. In accordance with ASC 480 – Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, a conversion feature within a financial instrument to issue a variable number of equity units fails to meet the definition of equity. Accordingly, such a conversion feature must be accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Upon initial recognition, the Company recorded a derivative liability of $2,362 within other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and a corresponding debt premium and debt issuance costs of $5,952, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2027 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 statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt premium and debt issuance costs is amortized over the term of the 2027 Notes.
Mortgages
On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into two term loans and security agreements with a bank as follows:

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.
Financial Risk Management
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, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 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. Through our Cannabist Company National Credit program, we provide credit to customers in certain markets in which we operate.
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 sale of our equity and from debt financing to fund our operations. Overall, we do not expect the
25
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.
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, 2024, and December 31, 2023, 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 2023 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 six months ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
As previously disclosed, on May 6, 2024, the Company resolved a lawsuit in Maryland state court, relating to the Company’s acquisition of Green Leaf Medical (the “Green Leaf Transaction”), a privately held, multi-state operator. As a part of that resolution, and in conjunction with the exchange of mutual releases of all claims relating to the Green Leaf Transaction, the Company issued 4,848,019 common shares to the former Green Leaf shareholders. The common shares will be issued pursuant to Rule 506(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company will be relying on Rule 506(b) because the issuances are not being made by general solicitation or advertising and the issuances are only being made to accredited investors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
As of the date of this filing, except as noted below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.
The Company’s efforts to obtain needed capital resources and sources of liquidity may not be sufficient to support its business operations and future growth strategies.
The Company’s efforts to obtain needed capital resources and sources of liquidity may not be sufficient to support its business operations and future growth strategies. In addition, the Company is required to make certain interest payments on existing debt and to meet certain cash requirements, including, without limitation, maintaining $10,000 in unrestricted cash. If the Company is unable to satisfy its liquidity and capital resource requirements, the Company may be forced to restructure its obligations to creditors, pursue work-out options or other protective measures.
The Company’s ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms or at all is subject to a variety of uncertainties. Adequate alternative financing may not be available or, if available, may only be available on unfavorable terms or subject to covenants that the Company may not be able to satisfy. There is no assurance that the Company will obtain the capital it requires. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to fund its liquidity needs, future operations or growth strategies. Furthermore, the Company may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs.
