All information, other than statements of historical facts, included in this report that address activities, events or developments that Jushi expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future constitutes forward‐looking information. Forward‐looking information is often identified by the words, “may”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “will”, “intend”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect” or similar expressions and includes, among others, information regarding: future business strategy, competitive strengths, goals, expansion and growth of Jushi’s business, operations and plans, including new revenue streams, the integration and benefits of recently acquired businesses or assets, roll out of new operations, the implementation by Jushi of certain product lines, implementation of certain research and development, the application for additional licenses and the grant of licenses that will be or have been applied for, the expansion or construction of certain facilities, the reduction in the number of our employees, the expansion into additional U.S. and international markets, any potential future legalization of adult use and/or medical marijuana under U.S. federal law; expectations of market size and growth in the U.S. and the states in which Jushi operates; expectations for other economic, business, regulatory and/or competitive factors related to Jushi or the cannabis industry generally; and other events or conditions that may occur in the future.

Readers are cautioned that forward‐looking information is not based on historical facts but instead is based on reasonable assumptions and estimates of the management of Jushi at the time they were provided or made and such information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties, including our ability to continue as a going concern, and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of Jushi, as applicable, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward‐looking information. Such factors include, among others: risks relating to U.S. regulatory landscape and enforcement related to cannabis, including political risks; risks relating to anti‐money laundering laws and regulation; other governmental and environmental regulation; public opinion and perception of the cannabis industry; risks related to the economy generally; risks relating to pandemics and forces of nature; risks related to contracts with third party service providers; risks related to the enforceability of contracts; the limited operating history of Jushi; Jushi’s history of operating losses and negative operating cash flows; reliance on the expertise and judgment of senior management of Jushi; risks inherent in an agricultural business; risks related to co‐investment with parties with different interests to Jushi; risks related to proprietary intellectual property and potential infringement by third parties; risks relating to the Company’s recent debt financing and other financing activities including increased leverage and issuing additional equity securities; risks relating to the management of growth; costs associated with Jushi being a publicly-traded company and a U.S. and Canadian filer; increasing competition in the industry; risks associated with cannabis products manufactured for human consumption including potential product recalls; reliance on key inputs, suppliers and skilled labor; reliance on manufacturers and contractors; risks of supply shortages or supply chain disruptions; cybersecurity risks; constraints on marketing products; fraudulent activity by employees, contractors and consultants; tax and insurance related risks; risk of litigation; conflicts of interest; risks relating to certain remedies being limited and the difficulty of enforcing judgments and effecting service outside of Canada; risks related to completed, pending or future acquisitions or dispositions, including potential future impairment of goodwill or intangibles acquired and/or post-closing disputes; sales of a significant amount of shares by existing shareholders; the limited market for securities of the Company; risks related to the continued performance of existing operations in California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia; risks related to the anticipated openings of additional dispensaries or relocation of existing dispensaries; risks relating to the expansion and optimization of the grower-processor in Pennsylvania, the vertically integrated facilities in Virginia and Massachusetts and the facility in Nevada; risks related to opening new facilities, which is subject to licensing approval; limited research and data relating to cannabis; and risks related to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates.

Although Jushi has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such forward‐looking information will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on the forward‐looking information contained in this report or other forward-looking statements made by Jushi.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
---

Jushi Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “Jushi”) is incorporated under the British Columbia’s Business Corporations Act. The Company is a vertically integrated, multi-state cannabis operator engaged in retail, distribution, cultivation, and processing in both medical and adult-use markets. As of March 31, 2023, Jushi, through its subsidiaries, owns or manages cannabis operations and/or holds licenses in the adult-use and/or medicinal cannabis marketplace in California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The Company’s head office is located at 301 Yamato Road, Suite 3250, Boca Raton, Florida 33431, United States of America, and its registered address is Suite 1700, Park Place, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 2X8, Canada.

The Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) and trades its subordinate voting shares (“SVS”) under the ticker symbol “JUSH", and trades on the United States Over the Counter Stock Market (“OTCQX”) under the symbol JUSHF.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods, and at the dates, presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on April 18, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”), and was also filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”) on April 18, 2023. Consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2022 presented herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Going Concern and Liquidity

As reflected in the 2022 Form 10-K, the Company has incurred a loss from operations of $220,333, including non-cash impairment charges of $159,645, and used net cash of $21,416 for operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022, and as of that date, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $37,577. Furthermore, the Company incurred additional loss from operations of $2,511 and used cash of $3,572 for operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and as of that date, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $50,201. Since inception, management has focused on building a diverse portfolio of assets in attractive markets to vertically integrate its business. As such, the Company has incurred losses as it continues to expand. Management has put in place plans to increase the profitability of the business in fiscal year 2023 and beyond. In order to achieve profitable future operations, management begun to commercialize production from its recently expanded grower-processing facilities in Pennsylvania and Virginia, as well as implemented a cost-savings and efficiency optimization plan which

Table of Contents

JUSHI HOLDINGS INC.<br><br>Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements<br><br>(Amounts Expressed in Thousands of United States Dollars, Unless Otherwise Stated)

includes, among other things, reduction in labor and packaging costs as well as operating efficiencies at the Company’s retail and grower-processing facilities.

As a result of the above, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued. Management intends to fund the Company’s operations, capital expenditures and debt service with existing cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash generated from operations and, as needed, future financing (equity and/or debt) as well as the potential sales of non-core assets. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon profitable future operations and positive cash flows from operations as well as future financing and/or sales of assets if necessary. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 in the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which is included in the 2022 Form 10-K. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:

March 31, 2023 (unaudited) December 31, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents $ 18,474 $ 26,196
Restricted cash 950 950
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 19,424 $ 27,146

Emerging Growth Company

As an emerging growth company (“EGC”), the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) allows the Company to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are applicable to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act until such time the Company is no longer considered to be an EGC. The adoption dates discussed in Recent Accounting Pronouncements reflect this election.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In June 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06 Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. This ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual

JUSHI HOLDINGS INC.<br><br>Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements<br><br>(Amounts Expressed in Thousands of United States Dollars, Unless Otherwise Stated)

and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The FASB issued guidance requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as if it had originated the contracts. To achieve this, an acquirer may assess how the acquiree applied Topic 606 to determine what to record for the acquired revenue contracts. Generally, this should result in an acquirer recognizing and measuring the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with how they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial statements (if the acquiree prepared financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles). The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The FASB issued guidance clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements. The FASB issued guidance clarifies the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, by requiring that leasehold improvements associated with common control leases be amortized by the lessee over the useful life of the leasehold improvements to the common control group (regardless of the lease term) as long as the lessee controls the use of the underlying asset through a lease. Additionally, leasehold improvements associated with common control leases should be accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control through an adjustment to equity if, and when, the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

5. ACQUISITIONS

Nature’s Remedy

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Nature’s Remedy”) in September 2021, the Company agreed to issue up to an additional $5,000 in Company SVS to Sammartino Investments LLC (“Sammartino”) upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of certain events after the closing date. The payment of the contingent consideration depends on whether or not a competitor (as defined in the definitive acquisition documents) opens a competing dispensary within a certain radius of the Company’s dispensary in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts during the period beginning on the 12-month anniversary of the closing date and ending on the 30-month anniversary of the closing date (the “Milestone Period”). On each monthly anniversary of the closing date during the Milestone Period (beginning on the 13-month anniversary of the closing date), Sammartino shall accrue $278 worth of Company SVS (a “Monthly Milestone Accrual”). On the 18-month, 24-month and 30-month anniversary of the closing date (and provided a competitor has not opened a competing dispensary within a certain radius of the Company’s dispensary in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts), Sammartino is entitled to be issued Company SVS in an amount equal to $1,667 divided by a volume weighted average reference share price. As of December 31, 2022, the aggregate contingent consideration liability was $4,793, of which $3,398 was included as a short-term contingent consideration liability and $1,395 was included in long-term contingent consideration liability.

In March 2023, the 18-month anniversary of the closing date occurred without a competitor opening a competing dispensary within a certain radius of the Company’s dispensary in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts. Consequently, at March 31, 2023, $1,667 of Monthly Milestone Accrual was classified as other current liabilities while the remaining liability of $3,109 was included in short-term contingent consideration liability.

As discussed in greater detail in Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies, on February 28, 2023, the Company informed Sammartino that Sammartino had breached several provisions of the Merger and Membership Interest Purchase Agreement between the Company, Sammartino and certain other parties thereto (as amended, the “MIPA”) and pursuant

Table of Contents

JUSHI HOLDINGS INC.<br><br>Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements<br><br>(Amounts Expressed in Thousands of United States Dollars, Unless Otherwise Stated)

to the terms of the MIPA the Company had elected to offset these damages against (among other things) all present and future Monthly Milestone Accruals.

Purchase Price Allocations for 2022 Business Combinations

The purchase price accounting in connection with the acquisitions of “The Apothecarium” in Las Vegas, Nevada (“Apothecarium”) and NuLeaf Inc., NuLeaf CLV Inc. and their subsidiaries (collectively, “NuLeaf”) in March 2022 and April 2022, respectively, has been finalized as of March 31, 2023. There were no material measurement period adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Business Combinations Acquisition Results and Unaudited Supplemental Pro Forma Financial Information

The following table summarizes consolidated pro forma revenue and consolidated pro forma net income (loss) as if the business combinations had occurred on January 1, 2022:

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

These unaudited pro forma financial results do not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by the combined companies for the period indicated, or of the results that may be achieved by the combined companies in the future. These amounts have been calculated using actual results and adding pre-acquisition results, after adjusting for: acquisition costs, additional depreciation and amortization from acquired property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, as well as adjustments for incremental interest expense relating to consideration paid, and changes to conform to the Company’s accounting policies.

The results of the 2022 acquisitions were included in the Company’s results since their respective acquisition dates. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Apothecarium acquisition contributed revenues of $556 and net income of $55, to the Company’s consolidated results.

9. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
---

The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s derivative liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Total Derivative Liabilities (1)
Carrying amounts as of January 1, 2023 $ 14,134
Fair value changes (8,030)
Carrying amounts as of March 31, 2023 $ 6,104

(1)Refer to Note 10 - Equity for the change in number of warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The Company’s derivative liabilities are primarily comprised of derivative warrants (“Derivative Warrants”). These are warrants to purchase SVS of the Company which were issued in connection with: (i) the 10% senior secured notes (the “Senior Notes”), and have an expiration date of December 23, 2024 and an exercise price of $1.25; and (ii) the Second Lien Notes and the Acquisition Facility second amendment, and have an expiration date of December 7, 2026 and an exercise price of $2.086. The Derivative Warrants may be net share settled. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were 55,375,202 Derivative Warrants outstanding.

These Derivative Warrants were considered derivative financial liabilities measured at fair value with all gains or losses recognized in profit or loss as the settlement amount for the Derivative Warrants may be adjusted during certain periods for variables that are not inputs to standard pricing models for forward or option equity contracts, i.e., the “fixed for fixed” criteria under ASC 815-40. The estimated fair value of the Derivative Warrants is measured at the end of each reporting period and an adjustment is reflected in fair value changes in derivatives in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). These are Level 3 recurring fair value measurements. The estimated fair value of the Derivative Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes model with stock price based on the OTCQX closing price of the Derivative Warrants issue date as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The assumptions used in the fair value calculations as of the balance sheet dates presented include the following:

March 31, 2023 (unaudited) December 31, 2022
Stock price $0.52 $0.76
Risk-free annual interest rate 3.63% - 4.22% 3.99% - 4.11%
Range of estimated possible exercise price $1.25 - $2.086 $1.25 - $2.086
Volatility 79% 79%
Remaining life 1.73 years - 3.69 years 1.98 years - 3.96 years
Forfeiture rate 0% 0%
Expected annual dividend yield 0% 0%

Volatility was estimated by using a weighting of the Company’s historical volatility and the average historical volatility of comparable companies from a representative peer group of publicly traded cannabis companies. The risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the Derivative Warrants was based on the yield available on government benchmark bonds with an approximate equivalent remaining term. The expected life is based on the contractual term. If any of the assumptions used in the calculation were to increase or decrease, this could result in a material or significant increase or decrease in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability. For example, the following table illustrates an increase or decrease in certain significant assumptions as of the balance sheet dates:

Share-based payment award plans

Plan summary and description

Under the Company’s 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, (the “2019 Plan”), non-transferable options to purchase SVS and restricted SVS of the Company may be issued to directors, officers, employees, or consultants of the Company. The 2019 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 15% (plus an additional 2% inducements for hiring employees and senior management) of the number of outstanding shares of common stock (of all classes) of the Company (the “Share Reserve”). Incentive stock options are limited to the Share Reserve, and the maximum number of incentive awards available for issuance under the 2019 Plan, including additional awards available for certain new hires, was 4,031,555 as of March 31, 2023.

Stock Options

The stock options issued by the Company are options to purchase SVS of the Company. All stock options issued have been issued to directors and employees under the Company’s 2019 Plan. Such options generally expire in ten years from the date of grant and generally vest ratably over three years from the grant date. The options generally may be net share settled. The following table summarizes the status of stock options and related transactions:

Exercisable as of March 31, 2023 14,247,252 $ 2.37

The fair value of the stock options granted was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used for the calculation at date of grant:

Three Months Ended March 31,
2023 2022
Weighted average stock price $0.60 $4.20
Weighted average expected stock price volatility 77.4% 72.8%
Expected annual dividend yield 0% 0%
Weighted average expected life 6.2 years 6.1 years
Weighted average risk-free annual interest rate 3.7% 1.9%
Weighted average grant date fair value $0.42 $2.51

Restricted Stock

The Company grants restricted SVS to independent directors, management, former owners of acquired businesses or assets, and to consultants and other employees. The restricted SVS are included in the issued and outstanding SVS, and the fair value of the restricted stock granted was estimated based on the SVS price at grant date. The following table summarizes the status of restricted stock and related transactions:

Number of Restricted Subordinate Voting Shares
Unvested restricted stock as of January 1, 2023 1,156,319
Cancelled (53,001)
Vested and Released (5,952)
Unvested restricted stock as of March 31, 2023 1,097,366

Generally, restricted stock awards will vest either one-third on each anniversary of service from the vesting start date or will be fully vested on the completion of one year of full service from the vesting start date, depending on the award.

Share-based compensation cost

The components of share-based compensation expense are as follows:

14. INCOME TAXES

The following table summarizes the Company’s income tax expense and effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

Three Months Ended March 31,
2023 2022
Loss before income tax $ (2,292) $ (14,706)
Income tax expense $ (10,148) $ (5,051)
Effective income tax rate 442.8 % 34.3 %

The Company has computed its provision for income taxes based on the actual effective rate for the quarter as the Company believes this is the best estimate for the annual effective tax rate. Therefore, the Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are not indicative of the effective income tax rate for each respective fiscal year of 2023 and 2022. The Company’s effective income tax rate is significantly higher than the statutory income tax rates due in part to (i) disallowed expenses under U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”), Section 280E, (ii) change in uncertain tax positions, (iii) fair value change of derivatives, (iv) interest and penalties accrual for tax liabilities, and (v) state income taxes.

Due to its cannabis operations, the Company is subject to the limitation of IRC Section 280E under which the Company is only allowed to deduct "costs of goods sold". This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC Section 280E. Therefore, the effective tax rate can be highly variable and may not necessarily correlate with pre-tax income which provides for effective tax rates that are well in excess of statutory tax rates.

The Company’s tax returns benefited from not applying IRC Section 280E to certain entities of the consolidated group either due to the entity not yet starting operations or because the entity had a separate trade or business that was not medical or recreational cannabis operations. The Company determined that it is not more likely than not these tax positions would be sustained under examination. As a result, the Company has an uncertain tax liability of $59,096 and $57,200 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, inclusive of interest and penalties, which is included in income tax liabilities - non-current in the consolidated balance sheets.

The amount of interest and penalties related to outstanding income tax liabilities recorded by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $889. The amount of interest and penalties related to outstanding income tax liabilities recorded by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was not material. Additionally, the Company’s income tax payable of $29,409 and $19,921 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, included deferral of certain 2023 and 2022 estimated income tax payments.

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had the following related party transactions:

Three Months Ended March 31, As of
2023 2022 March 31, 2023 (unaudited) December 31, 2022
Nature of transaction Related Party Expense Related Party Payable
10% Senior Notes - interest expense and principal amount $ $ (9) $ $
12% Second Lien Notes - interest expense and principal amount (1) $ (521) $ $ (18,241) $ (17,491)
Other debt (2) $ $ $ (3,250) $ (3,189)

(1)For the periods ended March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Second Lien Notes payable and the related interest expense includes amounts related to a director as well as a significant investor.

(2)Other debt relates to Jushi Europe. On February 16, 2022, Jushi Europe filed a notice of over-indebtedness with the Swiss courts. Then, the Swiss courts declared Jushi Europe’s bankruptcy on May 19, 2022. As a result, Jushi Europe updated its corporate name to Jushi Europe SA in liquidation, which is still on-going.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingencies

Although the possession, cultivation and distribution of cannabis for medical and recreational use is permitted in certain states, cannabis is classified as a Schedule-I controlled substance under the U.S. Controlled Substances Act and its use remains a violation of federal law. The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulations. Failure to comply with one or more of those regulations could result in fines, restrictions on its operations, or losses of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations. While management believes that the Company is in material compliance with applicable local and state regulations as of March 31, 2023, marijuana regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company could be subject to regulatory fines, penalties or restrictions at any time. Since federal law criminalizing the use of cannabis preempts state laws that legalize its use, strict enforcement of federal law regarding cannabis would likely result in the Company’s inability to proceed with the Company’s business plans. In addition, the Company’s assets, including real property, cash and cash equivalents, equipment, inventory and other goods, could be subject to asset forfeiture because cannabis is still federally illegal.

Refer to Note 14 - Income Taxes for certain tax-related contingencies.

Claims and Litigation

Any proceeding that may be brought against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business plans, financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2023, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial results. There are also no proceedings in which any of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s interest.

MJ Market matter

On March 31, 2023, MJ’s Market (“MJ’s”), Inc. filed a complaint in federal district court in Massachusetts adverse to Jushi Holdings, Inc. and the following of its subsidiaries, including Jushi MA, Inc., Jushi Inc. and Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts (“collectively “Jushi”), as well as the former owners and affiliates of Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts (“Complaint”). The Complaint centrally claims that the structure of the Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts transaction providing for increased purchase price consideration if there is no competing dispensary within 2,500 foot radius by certain time periods, and the Company’s filing with the Massachusetts Superior Court an appeal of the Town of Tyngsborough’s decision to approve MJ’s facility in contradiction of its own zoning bylaws are violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act, Massachusetts Antitrust Act, and Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act, as well as interference with contractual relations and abuse of process. MJ is seeking legal and equitable remedies including compensatory and other damages. The Company vehemently denies such allegations, and plans to vigorously defend the Complaint.

Sammartino matter

On February 28, 2023, the Company informed Sammartino, the former owner of Nature’s Remedy and certain of its affiliates, that Sammartino had breached several provisions of the MIPA and/or fraudulently induced the Company to enter into, and not terminate, the MIPA. As a consequence of these breaches and the fraudulent inducement, the Company informed Sammartino that the Company had incurred significant damages, and pursuant to the terms of the MIPA the Company had elected to offset these damages against certain promissory notes and shares the Company was to pay and issue, respectively, to Sammartino, and that Sammartino would be required to pay the remainder in cash. On March 13, 2023, Sammartino responded to the Company by alleging various procedural deficiencies with the Company’s claim and provided the Company with a notice that the Company was in default of the MIPA for failing to issue certain shares of the Company to Sammartino. On March 21, 2023, Sammartino sent a second notice that the Company was in default of the promissory notes for failing to pay interest pursuant to their specified schedule. On March 23, 2023, the Company sent a second letter to Sammartino disputing each procedural deficiency claimed by Sammartino and disputing that the Company is in default of the MIPA or the promissory notes and that it properly followed the terms of the various agreements in electing to set off the damages.

Commitments

In addition to the contractual obligations outlined in Note 7 - Debt and Note 8 - Leases, the Company has the following commitments as of March 31, 2023 related to property and construction.

Property and Construction Commitments

In connection with various license applications, the Company may enter into conditional leases or other property commitments which will be executed if the Company is successful in obtaining the applicable license and/or resolving other contingencies related to the license or application.

In addition, the Company expects to incur capital expenditures for leasehold improvements and construction of buildouts of certain locations, including for properties for which the lease is conditional on obtaining the applicable related license or for which other contingencies exist. If the Company were to be unsuccessful in obtaining a particular license or certain

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) covers the consolidated financial statements of Jushi Holdings Inc. and its controlled subsidiaries as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Financial Statements”). Unless the context indicates or requires otherwise, the terms “Jushi”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refers to Jushi Holdings Inc. and its controlled entities. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Quarterly Financial Statements”). The Quarterly Financial Statements have been prepared by management and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 18, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”) and was also filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”). All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

Company Overview

We are a vertically integrated, multi-state cannabis operator engaged in retail, distribution, cultivation, and processing operations in both medical and adult-use markets. We are focused on building a diverse portfolio of cannabis assets through opportunistic investments and pursuing application opportunities in attractive limited license jurisdictions. We have targeted assets in highly populated, limited license medical markets on a trajectory toward adult-use legalization, including Pennsylvania and Ohio, markets that are in the process of transitioning to adult-use, namely Virginia, and limited license, fast-growing, large adult-use markets, such as Illinois, Nevada and Massachusetts, and certain municipalities of California.

Factors Affecting our Performance and Related Trends

Competition and Pricing Pressure

The cannabis industry is subject to significant competition and pricing pressures, which is often market specific and can be caused by an oversupply of cannabis in the market, and may be transitory from period to period. We may experience significant competitive pricing pressures as well as competitive products and services providers in the markets in which we operate. Several significant competitors may offer products and/or services with prices that may match or are lower than ours. We believe that the products and services we offer are generally competitive with those offered by other cannabis companies. It is possible that one or more of our competitors could develop a significant research advantage over us that allows them to provide superior products or pricing, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Continued pricing pressure due to competition, increased cannabis supply or shifts in customer preferences could adversely impact our customer base or pricing structure, resulting in a material impact on our results of operations, or asset impairments in future periods.

Recent Developments

Store Closures

In April 2023, we closed three underperforming Beyond Hello™ stores in Colwyn, Pennsylvania, Hazleton, Pennsylvania, and Palm Springs, California, bringing our current footprint to a total of 35 operating dispensaries in seven markets.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

(Amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

Revenue, Net

The following table presents revenue by type for the periods indicated:

Three Months Ended March 31,
2023 2022 Change % Change
Retail $ 62,311 $ 57,955 8 %
Wholesale 7,562 3,848 3,714 97 %
Other 85 (85) (100) %
Total revenue, net $ 69,873 $ 61,888 13 %

All values are in US Dollars.

Revenue, net, was $69,873, as compared to $61,888, an increase of $7,985, or 13%. Retail revenue increased $4,356 due primarily to new dispensary openings from build outs and acquisitions. We acquired Apothecarium and NuLeaf in Nevada during March 2022 and April 2022, respectively, and opened new Beyond Hello™ dispensaries in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia in 2022. The increase in retail revenue was partially offset by declines in revenue in: (i) Illinois, due to the impact of the state of Missouri moving to recreational use, and (ii) Pennsylvania due to market price compression. The Company ended the quarter with thirty-seven operating dispensaries in seven states, as compared to twenty-nine in six states at the end of March 31, 2022.

Wholesale revenue increased $3,714 primarily due to increased cultivation and processing activities at our grower processor facilities in Massachusetts, Nevada and Virginia. The increase in Nevada is from the acquisition of NuLeaf.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $29,941 compared to $19,112, an increase of $10,829, or 57%. Gross profit margin increased to 43% compared to 31%. The improvement in gross profit and gross profit margin was driven by operating efficiencies at our grower processor facilities in Massachusetts, Nevada and Virginia, which was partially offset by declines in revenue in Illinois and Pennsylvania driven by market price compression. Additionally, gross profit and gross profit margin for the prior year were negatively impacted by the sell through of inventory acquired in the acquisitions of Nature’s Remedy, which was acquired in September 2021, and Apothecarium, which had a fair value step up.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $32,452 compared to $37,308, a decrease of $4,856, or 13%. The following table presents information of our operating expenses for the periods indicated:

Three Months Ended March 31,
2023 2022 Change % Change
Salaries, wages and employee related expenses $ 16,804 $ 17,336 (3) %
Share-based compensation expense 2,311 6,964 (4,653) (67) %
Rent and related expenses 2,893 3,089 (196) (6) %
Depreciation and amortization expense 2,663 2,256 407 18 %
Professional fees and legal expenses 2,325 2,706 (381) 14 %
Other expenses (1) 5,456 4,957 499 10 %
Total operating expenses $ 32,452 $ 37,308 (13) %

All values are in US Dollars.

(1)     Other expenses are primarily comprised of marketing and selling expenses, insurance costs, administrative and application fee, software and technology costs, travel, entertainment and conferences and other.

Table of Contents

Salaries, wages, and employee-related expenses decreased due to a decrease in the number of employees as we work to right size the organization. Share-based compensation expense decreased primarily due to lower stock options granted to new employees and management. Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily related to property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”) and amortizable intangible assets that were acquired with the 2022 acquisition of NuLeaf and Apothecarium.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net, was $8,520 compared to $10,116, a decrease of $1,596, or 16%. The decrease is due primarily to lower debt discount amortization driven by the redemption of the 10% senior notes (“Senior Notes”) in December 2022, partially offset by higher overall debt balance due in part to funding of our recent acquisitions as well as higher finance lease obligations.

Fair Value Gains on Derivatives

Fair value gains on derivatives were $8,030 compared to $14,309. Fair value gains on derivatives include the fair value changes relating to the derivative warrants liability. The derivative warrants are required to be remeasured at fair value at each reporting period. The fair value changes in derivatives were primarily attributable to the movement in our stock price during the corresponding period.

Other, Net

Other, net was an income of $709 compared to an expense of $703, a change of approximately $1,412. The change from an expense to an income was due primarily to (i) the recording of additional indemnification asset of $614 in the first quarter of 2023 related to acquisitions made in prior years, and (ii) $405 of non-operating expenses recorded during first quarter of 2022.

Income Tax Expense

Total income tax expense was $10,148 compared to $5,051, an increase of $5,097, or 101%. The increase in income tax expense is primarily due to increased gross profit as well as the recording of additional uncertain tax positions and higher interest and penalties in 2023.

Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliation

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 and Adjusted EBITDA (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 and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA 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

Table of Contents

as EBITDA before: (i) non-cash share-based compensation expense and other one-time charges; (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. 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.

Since inception, we have focused on building a diverse portfolio of assets in attractive markets to vertically integrate our business. As such, we incurred losses as we continue to expand. We have put in place plans to increase the profitability of the business in fiscal year 2023 and beyond. In order to achieve profitable future operations, we began to commercialize production from our recently expanded grower-processing facilities in Pennsylvania and Virginia, as well as implemented a cost-savings and efficiency optimization plan which includes, among other things, reduction in labor and packaging costs as well as operating efficiencies at our retail and grower-processing facilities.

As a result of the above, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are available to be issued. We intend to fund our operations, capital expenditures and debt service with existing cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash generated from operations and, as needed, future financing (equity and/or debt) as well as the potential sales of non-core assets. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon profitable future operations and positive cash flows from operations as well as future

financing and/or sales of assets if necessary. There is no assurance that we will be successful in this or any of our endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.

The quarterly financial statements contained herein have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2023, we do not have any off‐balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on the financial performance or financial condition of the Company. For our contractual obligations, refer to Note 7 - Debt, Note 8 - Leases and Note 16 - Commitments and Contingencies of our Quarterly Financial Statements contained in Part I. Item 1 of this report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the risks disclosed in Item 7A of our 2022 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the existence of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below.

Previously Identified Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We previously identified and disclosed deficiencies as follows:

•Insufficient accounting resources, inadequate level of precision in the performance of review and monitoring controls, including management review controls, or ineffective communication, as it relates to: financial reporting, accounting, due to the restatement of the statement of cash flows; accounting and valuation for complex financial instruments (debt and equity), earnings per share, cash and financial close process relating to cash reconciliation, inventory, property plant and equipment (“PPE”), accruals, leases, revenue, impairment and business combinations.

•Insufficient information technology general controls, as it relates to: lack of user access controls, change management, passwords, access controls reviews, backup and cybersecurity losses and vulnerabilities.

•Internal controls over financial reporting, and accounting for PPE and related accounts payable and accruals due to insufficient accounting resources and inadequate level of precision in the performance of review controls. Specifically, the material weakness related to accounting for PPE, leases and related accounts payable and accruals is associated with insufficient cut-off procedures to ensure all posted and/or unposted invoices are captured in the period the services were rendered.

•Additionally, management determined that the Company also have material weaknesses in its accounts payable process relating to vendor setup and maintenance resulting from the Company’s finding of phishing attacks during 2022.

•Lack of projected financial covenant calculations and related impact on financial statement presentation.

We have concluded that each of these deficiencies constitutes a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

Remediation Plan and Status of Material Weaknesses

In response to the identified material weaknesses described above, the Company’s management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee, has developed a remediation plan, including designing and implementing improved processes and internal controls, upgrading talent and utilizing consultants in the accounting organization. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company took the following steps to improve its internal control over financial reporting:

•Performed a risk assessment of key business processes across financial reporting areas to identify and implement enhanced policies and procedures related to internal controls with a focus on the precision of review controls;

•Improved the staffing of the Accounting Department through senior level hires who collectively bring a combined 50+ years of GAAP accounting experience, including in Fortune 500 companies and global accounting firms, and hiring additional accounting managers and staff;

•Enhanced review controls through use of checklists, accounting position papers, defined thresholds for further investigation or reassignment of tasks to more experienced team members in the following areas: statement of cash flows, earnings per share, accounting and valuation of complex financial instruments, property, plant and equipment, impairment assessment, business combinations and cash reconciliations;

•Implemented detective controls for proper cut-off of accruals;

•Assessing third party service providers which can consult in an effort to revise and enhance the Company’s Information Technology General Controls and Cyber Security Program; and

•Developing enhanced policies, procedures and accompanying training on vendor setup, maintenance and validation.

While the Company has made good progress, the Company is still in the process of fully implementing its remediation plan. Additional time is required to complete the remediation of the material weaknesses to ensure the sustainability of the recently implemented remediation actions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than the Company’s ongoing remediation efforts discussed above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
