Management Commentary
“I am pleased to report the continued improvement in our profitability as we aggressively execute our cost savings and optimization initiatives across our national footprint, driving a meaningful reduction in operating expenses year-over-year,” said Jim Cacioppo, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman, and Founder of Jushi. “The significant enhancements we have made in our grower-processor facilities in Pennsylvania and Virginia have enabled us to operate more efficiently on a larger scale with increased capacity, resulting in expanded margins and wholesale revenue growth. Additionally, we have seen meaningful product quality improvements across our portfolio of brands. Jushi-branded product sell-through has remained steady across our vertical markets, representing nearly half of total retail sales. Sales are expected to increase with the Woodbridge, Virginia store opening and two Pennsylvania stores reopening as well as the launch of new, competitive, higher margin products, such as the anticipated introduction of our Hijinks brand in multiple states in the second half of the year.”
Mr. Cacioppo continued, “Notably in the second quarter, gross profit increased approximately $613 thousand sequentially, and Adjusted EBITDA grew by $12.1 million year-over-year and sequentially by approximately 66%, achieving an Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 19%. Our results for the quarter reflect the strides we have made toward long-term, reliable profitability as we work to deliver sustained improvements in our fundamentals. With rigorous cost controls and robust operational discipline, we believe we are positioned to achieve our goal of generating positive operating cash flow within the next few quarters.”

Revenue in Q2 2023 was $66.4 million as compared to $72.8 million in the second quarter of 2022. The year-over-year decrease in revenue can be attributed to a modest decline in retail sales due to the closure of three underperforming stores, in addition to headwinds in: (i) Illinois, due to the impact of the state of Missouri moving to recreational use, and (ii) Nevada and Pennsylvania, due to increased competition. The decrease in retail revenue was partially offset by new dispensary openings in Virginia and Ohio. The Company ended the quarter with thirty-four operating dispensaries in seven states, as compared to thirty-three in six states at the end of June 30, 2022. Additionally, Jushi-branded product sales grew to approximately 46.5% of total retail sales in the Company's five vertical markets in Q2 2023.
Wholesale revenue increased $1.3 million year-over-year, primarily due to continued operational improvements and increased efficiencies at our grower-processors in Massachusetts and Virginia.
Gross profit in Q2 2023 was $30.6 million compared to $26.7 million in Q2 2022, an increase of $3.9 million or 14.6% year-over-year. Gross profit margin increased to 46.0% compared to 36.7% in Q2 2022 and 42.9% in Q1 2023. The improvements in gross profit and gross profit margin were driven by operating efficiencies at the grower-processor facilities in Massachusetts and Virginia, which were partially offset by market price compression and competition in Illinois, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.
Operating expenses for Q2 2023 were $27.2 million, compared to $38.7 million in Q2 2022, a decrease of $11.6 million or 29.9% year-over-year, demonstrating the continued effectiveness of the Company’s cost savings, increased efficiency, and optimization plan. Increased savings were comprised of a decrease in the number of employees as the organization is right-sized, a reduction in retail labor hours following the implementation of a budgeted retail labor hour model, and a decrease in share-based compensation reflecting lower value of share-based compensation grants as well as forfeitures of unvested equity awards. Prior year included costs related to the Company’s transition to GAAP reporting and SEC registration.
Net loss for Q2 2023 was $14.0 million, compared to net loss of $12.4 million in Q1 2023, and to net income of $12.1 million in Q2 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA1 in Q2 2023 was $12.6 million compared to $0.5 million in Q2 2022 and $7.6 million in Q1 2023, representing an improvement of $12.1 million year-over-year and $5.0 million quarter-over-quarter.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $229.4 million in principal amount of total debt, excluding leases and property, plant, and equipment financing obligations. As of August 7, 2023, the Company’s issued and outstanding shares were 196,631,598 and its fully diluted shares outstanding were 312,432,357.

UNAUDITED RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME (LOSS) TO ADJUSTED EBITDA
and CALCULATION OF ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
In addition to providing financial measurements based on GAAP, we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate our financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin (each as defined below). We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of our operating business performance and allow for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in our business. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. As there are no standardized methods of calculating these non-GAAP measures, our methods may differ from those used by others, and accordingly, the use of these measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by others, thus limiting their usefulness. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are financial measures that are not defined under GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income (loss), or “earnings”, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before: (i) non-cash share-based compensation expense; (ii) inventory-related adjustments; (iii) fair value changes in derivatives; (iv) other (income)/expense items; (v) transaction costs; (vi) asset impairment; (vii) loss on debt extinguishment; and (viii) start-up costs. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by total revenue. These financial measures are metrics that have been adjusted from the GAAP net income (loss) measure in an effort to provide readers with a normalized metric in making comparisons more meaningful across the cannabis industry, as well as to remove non-recurring, irregular and one-time items that may otherwise distort the GAAP net income measure. Other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
