Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2025 and 2024

NOTE 1:NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Proper Holdings, LLC, Subsidiaries and Affiliates, (the Company) was organized as domestic business corporation on October 10, 2019 and is engaged in the business of operating a vertically integrated adult-use cannabis operation under the State of Missouri, Department of Health and Senior Services. Beginning in 2021, the Company began to cultivate, manufacture, and dispense marijuana and marijuana-infused products. Beginning in February 2022, recreational cannabis has been legal in Missouri.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities:

Ownership %

 

Business Name

2025

 

Proper Holdings, LLC

New Growth Horizon, LLC

Basis of Accounting

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurement

The estimated fair values of the Companys short-term financial instruments, including receivables and payables arising in the ordinary court of business, approximate their individual carrying amounts due to the relatively short period of time between their origination and expected realization.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2025 and 2024

NOTE 1:NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At times, cash and cash equivalents may be in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company deposits held in excess of federally insured limits as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $17,788,568 and $15,442,405 respectively.

Accounts Receivable-Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company uses the allowance method to account for bad debts. This method provides allowances for doubtful receivables equal to the estimated losses that will be incurred in the collection of receivables. The estimated losses are based on historic collection experience coupled with a review of the current status of existing receivables. This estimate is adjusted for managements assessment of current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts regarding future events and any other factors deemed relevant by the Company. The Company writes off uncollectible accounts after they have exhausted the collection process. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the normal course of business.

Inventories

Inventory is stated at the weighted average method for valuing inventories at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company manufactures a majority of its finished goods sold through its dispensaries. The Company captures into inventory all costs of materials plus direct labor and overhead costs of the following departments: cultivation, production and manufacturing.

Property and Equipment

Purchase of property and equipment are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements of property and equipment are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of property and equipment are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported in the Statement of Operations. Depreciation is provided over the estimated economic useful lives of each class of assets and is computed using the straight-line method and accelerated methods. Total depreciation expense was $702,926 and $565,978 for the for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Estimated economic useful lives of property and equipment range from 3 to 39 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The carrying value of long-lived assets are reviewed when facts and circumstances suggest that the assets may be impaired or that the amortization period may need to be changed. The Company considers internal and external factors relating to each asset, including cash flows, local market developments, industry trends and other publicly available information. If these factors and the projected undiscounted cash flows of the Company over the remaining amortization period indicate that the asset will not be recoverable, the carrying value will be adjusted to the fair market value. No adjustment was considered necessary for the three months ended March 31, 2025 or for the year 2024, respectively.

The Company recognized revenue for this performance obligation when the customer redeems the points for the purchase of a product.

NOTE 1:NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Income Taxes (continued)

Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company has analyzed tax positions taken for filings with the Internal Revenue Service and all tax jurisdictions where it operates. The Company believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025.

Under Federal law, the Company is a taxable entity and is subject to Federal income tax. Pursuant to Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Section 280E) the Company may not be permitted to take tax deductions for certain operating expenses. According to Section 280E, cost of goods sold are considered the only deductible expenses under Federal case law. Cost of goods sold determined under U.S. GAAP may differ from that calculated under Section 280E.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers as follows:

Identify the contract with a customer

2.

Identify the performance obligations in the contract

3.

Determine the transaction price

4.

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

5.

Recognize revenue when or as performance obligations are satisfied

The Companys revenue streams consist of retail product sales and wholesale product sales.

Revenue is recognized at the time control of the product has been transferred to the customer. Control transfers to retail customers upon delivery of the product to the customer at the dispensary and to wholesale customers when the product is delivered. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product or services has not been delivered or provided or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered, or no refund will be required.

March 31, 2025 and 2024

NOTE 1:NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

For performance obligations related to the sale of product, control transfers to the customer at a point in time. The payment terms and conditions require payment at the point of sale in the dispensaries and when delivered to wholesale customers. Delivery to wholesale customers is typically completed within a few days of the sale.

The Companys business gives rise to variable consideration because of their customer loyalty program, that generally decreases the transaction price and revenue recognized at the point of sale. These variable amounts are generally credited to the customer, based on achieving certain levels of sales activity. Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned using a probability-weighted approach based on historical experience and known trends and require significant judgment.

Sales Tax

The State of Missouri charges a 4% tax on medical marijuana and marijuana product sales and a 6% tax on adult use marijuana and marijuana product sales. The tax applies to the net retail price when a product is sold. The Company has elected to present revenue net of this sales tax.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2016-02, Leases (FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases). The update requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company elected the package of practical expedients under the transition guidance within Topic 842, in which the Company does not reassess (1) the historical lease classification, (2) whether any existing contracts at transition are or contain leases, or (3) the initial direct costs for any existing leases.

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception, which is the date on which the terms of the contract are agreed to, and the agreement creates enforceable rights and obligations. A contract is or contains a lease when (1) explicitly or implicitly identified assets have been deployed in the contract and (2) the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that underlying asset and directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract. The Company also considers whether its service arrangements include the right to control the use of an asset.

The Company made an accounting policy election available under Topic 842 not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less. For all other leases, ROU assets and lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of future lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date of the lease. The ROU assets also include any initial direct costs incurred and lease payments made at or before the commencement date and are reduced by any lease incentives.

NOTE 1:NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Leases (Continued)

The Company accounts for lease and non-lease components in its contracts as a single lease component for its real estate and vehicle asset classes. The non-lease components typically represent additional services transferred to the Organization, such as common area maintenance for real estate or maintenance packages for vehicles, which are variable in nature and are recorded in lease expense in the period incurred.

Marketing and Advertising Costs

Sales and marketing costs are charged to operations in the year incurred. Advertising costs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $469,657 and $262,443, respectively.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through July 31, 2025, the date on which the consolidated financial statements were issued.

New Accounting Pronouncements - CECL

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses (Topic 326) on Financial Instruments, which introduces the current expected credit losses methodology (CECL) for estimating allowances for credit losses, which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected loss (CECL) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for available-for-sale securities.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized costs and off balance sheet credit exposures. Results for reporting periods after January 1, 2023 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable U.S. GAAP. There were no transition adjustments as of January 1, 2023.

Deep Roots Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (Unaudited)


1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

(a)

Business Description

Deep Roots Holdings, Inc. (“Deep Roots” or the “Company”) is an established cannabis operator licensed by the State of Nevada. The Company owns, operates, and invests in legal cannabis cultivation, processing, and retail operations. The Company is headquartered in Mesquite, Nevada.

The Company operated five dispensaries and a cultivation and manufacturing facility, all of which are located in Nevada. In October 2024, the Company acquired most of the assets of a Nevada operator, The Source Holdings, LLC, including four retail operations two provisional retail licenses and on operating facility for cultivation.

On December 18, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Vireo Growth Inc. (“Vireo”) to purchase substantially all of the assets of the Company. On June 6, 2025, Vireo announced that it had closed on the transaction to acquire Deep Roots.

Total consideration for the transaction was $132.7 million, paid in the form of 255.2 million Subordinate Voting Shares of Vireo at a reference price per share of $0.52. The purchase price of the Deep Roots transaction represents a multiple of 4.175x 2024 “Closing EBITDA” of $30 million. The transaction is subject to claw back provisions if 2026 EBITDA is below Closing EBITDA as of December 31, 2026. The selling shareholders agreed to voluntary share lock-up provisions, with tranches of shares received in connection with the closing unlocking over a 33-month period.

(b)

The Regulatory Environment

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 compliance with applicable local and state regulations as of March 31, 2025, and through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, cannabis regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations, and accordingly, the Company may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties or restrictions in the future.

State laws that permit and regulate the production, distribution, and use of cannabis for adult use or medical purposes are in direct conflict with the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. § 811) (the “CSA”), which makes cannabis use and possession federally illegal. Although certain states and territories of the U.S. authorize medical and/or adult use cannabis production and distribution by licensed or registered entities, under U.S. federal law, the possession, use, cultivation, and transfer of cannabis and any related drug paraphernalia is illegal and any such acts are criminal acts under federal law under the CSA. Although the Company’s activities are believed to be compliant with applicable state and local laws, strict compliance with state and local laws with respect to cannabis may neither absolve the Company of liability under U.S. federal law, nor may it provide a defense to any federal proceeding which may be brought against the Company.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)

Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and reflect the accounts and operations of the Company. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, under the historical cost convention. Intercompany balances have been eliminated. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include Deep Roots Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Deep Roots Harvest, Inc., Deep Roots Operating, Inc., and Deep Roots Aria Acqco, Inc.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(b)

Cash

Cash includes cash deposits in financial institutions and cash held at the Company’s facility and retail locations.

(c)

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivable are recorded net of an allowance for credit losses. The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses based on existing contractual payments terms, actual payment patterns of its customers and individual customer circumstances. As of March 31, 2025, there was no allowance for credit losses. As of December 31, 2024, the Company estimated an allowance for credit losses accounts of $48,896.

The Company’s accounts receivable is primarily due from wholesale customers. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of each customer’s creditworthiness and financial condition and collateral is not required. The Company maintains allowances for credit losses, returns and discounts. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a combination of prospective factors. The allowance for credit losses is based on the aging of such receivables and any known specific collectability exposures as well as financial stability of its customers. Accounts are written off when deemed uncollectible. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for credit losses will change.

(d)

Inventories

Inventories are primarily comprised of raw materials, internally produced work in process, and finished goods.

Costs incurred during the production process are capitalized as incurred to the extent that cost is less than net realizable value. These costs include materials, labor and manufacturing overhead used in the production processes. Inventories of purchased finished goods and packing materials are initially valued at cost and subsequently at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Net realizable value is determined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost basis and is a significant estimate. Products for resale and supplies and consumables are valued at lower of cost and net realizable value. The Company reviews inventory for obsolete, redundant and slow-moving goods and any such inventories are written down to net realizable value. The Company estimated a reserve for obsolete inventories of $978,010 as of March 31, 2025. There were no reserves for obsolete inventories as of December 31, 2024.

(e)

Notes Receivable

The Company provides financing to businesses within the cannabis industry. These notes are accounted for as financial instruments in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 310 Receivables. The Company recognizes impairment on notes receivable when, based on all available information, it is probable that a loss has been incurred based on past events and conditions existing at the date of the consolidated financial statements.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(f)

Property and Equipment

Purchases of property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Improvements and replacements of property and equipment are capitalized. Maintenance and ordinary repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of property and equipment are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful lives of each class of assets using the following terms:

Buildings

    

39 Years

Leasehold Improvements

 

Shorter of Remaining Life of the Lease or Useful Life

Furniture and Equipment

 

5 - 7 Years

Computer and Equipment

 

5 Years

Vehicles

 

5 Years

The assets’ residual values, useful lives, and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each consolidated financial statement year-end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

When assets are sold or retired, its cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported in the consolidated statement of income. Construction in progress is transferred when available for use and depreciation of the assets commences at that point.

(g)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The carrying value of long-lived assets are reviewed when facts and circumstances suggest that the assets may be impaired or that the amortization period may need to be changed. The Company considers internal and external factors relating to each asset, including cash flows, local market developments, industry trends and other publicly available information. If these factors and the projected undiscounted cash flows of the Company over the remaining amortization period indicate that the asset will not be recoverable, the carrying value will be adjusted to the fair market value. No impairment charges for long-lived assets have been recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 or for the year ended December 31, 2024.

(h)

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets acquired by the Company in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Amortization periods of assets with finite lives are based on the Company’s estimates as of the dates of acquisitions. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives, residual values and amortization methods are reviewed at each year end, and any changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively. The Company amortizes intangible assets, which are comprised of licenses, over 15 years.

(i)

Goodwill

Goodwill is the excess cost of an acquired business over the fair value amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company has elected to amortize goodwill on a straight-line basis over ten years and to test goodwill for impairment at the entity level. The Company evaluates the facts and circumstances as of the end of each reporting period to determine whether a triggering event exists and, if so, whether it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired.

The Company has elected to account for both goodwill and certain customer and noncompete intangibles in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-63 and ASC 805-20-25-30. Under these standards, a private company may amortize goodwill on a line straight line basis over ten years.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(j)

Leased Assets

A lease of property and equipment is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and awards incidental to ownership to the Company. A lease of property and equipment is classified as an operating lease whenever the terms of the lease do not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. Lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the economic benefits are consumed. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used in determining the present value of future payments at the commencement date of each lease. The Company considers whether a leased asset qualifies as such under ASC 842. Management uses certain policy elections when evaluating a lease. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

(k)

Investments

The Company’s investments in three private companies represent equity interests without a readily determinable fair value. The Company follows ASC 321, Investments – Equity Securities and has elected to measure at cost and remeasure to fair value when impaired or upon observable transaction prices. There were no impairment charges and there were no observable transaction prices the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 for the for the year ended December 31, 2024.

(l)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers all related factors of the asset by market participants in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels, and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

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.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(m)

Income Taxes

The Company is taxed as a C corporation. Accordingly, the Company accounts for income taxes for the activity of this entity under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740 Income Taxes.

Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.

Income tax positions are assessed using a two-step process. A determination is first made as to whether it is more-likely-than-not that the income tax position will be sustained, based upon technical merits, upon the examination by tax authorities. If the income tax position is expected to meet the more-likely-than-not criteria, the benefit recorded in the consolidated financial statements equals the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon its ultimate settlement. The Company records interest and penalties due to taxing authorities as incurred.

As discussed further in Note 10, under Federal law, the Company is a taxable entity and is subject to Federal income tax. Pursuant to Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 280E”). The section disallows deductions and credits attributable to a trade or business of trafficking in controlled substances. Under U.S. law marijuana is a Schedule I controlled substance.

(n)

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized by the Company in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Through application of the standard, the Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

In order to recognize revenue under ASU 2014-09, the Company applies the following five (5) steps:

·

Identify a customer along with a corresponding contract;

·

Identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract to transfer goods or provide distinct services to a customer;

·

Determine the transaction price the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer;

·

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract;

·

Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).

Revenues consist of wholesale and retail sales of cannabis, which are generally recognized at a point in time when control over the goods have been transferred to the customer and is recorded net of sales discounts. Payment is typically due upon transferring the goods to the customer or within a specified time period permitted under the Company’s credit policy. Sales discounts were not material during the for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 or for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Revenue is recognized upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company satisfies its performance obligation and transfers control upon delivery and acceptance by the customer.

(o)

Share-Based Compensation

The Company has an equity-based compensation plan that allows for various awards, including restricted stock. The Company accounts for its share-based awards in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation (ASC 718), which requires fair value measurement on the grant date and recognition of compensation expensed for all share-based payment awards made to employees. The fair value of restricted stock is based upon the estimated value of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant. The fair value is expensed over the requisite service periods of the awards, net of estimated forfeitures, which is generally the performance period and the related amount is recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

(p)

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising expenses, included in sales and marketing expenses, was $633,202 and $398,544 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively

The Company follows FASB ASC subtopic 850-10, Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Pursuant to ASC 850-10-20, related parties include: a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.

The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which consolidated statements of income are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the consolidated financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which consolidated statements of income are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each consolidated balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.

Business Combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. Acquisition related transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets and liabilities, including intangible assets, of acquired businesses are recorded at their fair value at the date of acquisition. When the Company acquires control of a business, any previously held equity interest also is remeasured to fair value. The excess of the purchase consideration and any previously held equity interest over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is goodwill.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(s)

Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates, and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue 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 revision affects both current and future periods.

Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the assumptions related to the estimated useful lives for property and equipment and inventories. In calculating the value of inventory, management is required to make a number of estimates, including standard costs allocated to work in-process inventory, estimates of the amount of spoiled or expired inventory and comparisons of the inventory cost to estimated net realizable value. Allocation of overhead costs to work in process is based on an estimate of a standard cost of production based on normal conditions. Due to the uncertainties inherent in the estimation process and changes to normal conditions as the Company continues to grow, it is at least reasonably possible that the standard cost of production will be revised, as applicable.

The Company’s business is subject to a variety of state laws, regulations, and local ordinances. Certain states have legalized the possession, distribution, and cultivation of marijuana for medical and/or non-medical purposes; these activities remain illegal under federal law, which cause higher federal income taxation (IRC Section 280E) and difficulty in obtaining traditional banking relationships. If the federal government elects to enforce the laws as currently written or otherwise changes the laws in an adverse way with respect to marijuana it could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations, including potential prosecution under the laws and liquidation of the Company.

The classification of an acquisition as a business combination or an asset acquisition depends on whether the assets acquired constitute a business, which can be a complex judgement. Whether an acquisition is classified as a business combination or asset acquisition can have a significant impact on the entries made on and after acquisition.

9.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

On June 14, 2024, the Company granted certain employees and advisors 8,700,000 shares of restricted stock. The Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of shares expected to vest differs from the previous estimate. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period with no adjustment to prior periods for expense previously recognized.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, shares totaling 637,250 vested. As of March 31, 2025, 4,284,042 shares were unvested. During the year ended December 31, 2024, shares totaling 3,778,708 vested. As of December 31, 2024, 4,921,292 shares were unvested.

There were no forfeitures during the three months ended March 31, 2025 December 31, 2024. The grant date fair value was $1.30 and share-based compensation recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $828,425. The shares were valued based on the estimated fair market value of the Company.

10.INCOME TAXES

As the Company operates in the cannabis industry, it is subject to the limitations of IRC Section 280E under which the Company is only allowed to deduct expense directly related to the sale of product. 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 or loss. The Company has taken a position that it does not owe taxes attributable to the application of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code.

The Company is subject to examination of its income tax returns by tax authorities. Because tax matters that may be challenged by tax authorities are typically complex, the ultimate outcome of these challenges is uncertain. The Company does not anticipate unrecognized tax benefits to be resolved in the next twelve months and anticipates that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits may change within the next twelve months for additional uncertain tax position taken on a go-forward basis. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2020.

The Company has an income tax receivable of $8,295,721 as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 with uncertain tax position liabilities of $14,202,308 as of March 31, 2025 and $12,282,308 as of December 31, 2024. The deferred tax asset and related benefit and expense relates to depreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. There is no state income tax for the state of Nevada.

11.LEASE OBLIGATIONS

The Company has operating leases for its retail dispensaries and cultivation and processing facility located throughout the state of Nevada. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term and commencement date.

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. Certain leases require payments for taxes, insurance, and maintenance and are considered non-lease components. The Company accounts for non-lease components separately.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company must consider whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset.

The Company leases certain business facilities from third parties under non-cancellable operating lease agreements that contain minimum rental provisions that expire through 2031. Some leases also contain renewal provisions and provide for rent abatement and escalating payments.

The Company recorded $743,044 and $829,135 in operating lease expense, of which $247,055 and $327,031 was included in the cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

12.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

The Company entered into certain transactions with DRN Properties LP (“DRN”), which is a related party due to common ownership. The Company leases its cultivation and production facility, along with one of its dispensary and office spaces from DRN. The Company paid $371,418 and $495,865 for rent for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The lease expense totaled $242,452 and $529,117 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. No amounts were due to or due from DRN, LLC as of March 31, 2025. Related party operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities totaled $6,991,407 and $7383,213, respectively as of March 31, 2025. Related party operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities totaled $10,372,474 and $10,919,485, respectively as of December 31, 2024. The weighted average remaining lease term for related party leases was approximately three years.

13.CONCENTRATIONS

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risks include cash in financial institutions, which under U.S. federal law, money obtained from activities related to the marijuana industry cannot be federal insured. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had a balance of $19,506,626.

14.LOYALTY OBLIGATIONS

The Company has customer loyalty programs where retail customers accumulate points for each dollar of spending, net of tax. These points are recorded as a contractual liability until customers redeem their points for discount on eligible products as part of an in-store sales transaction. In addition, the Company records a performance obligation as a reduction of revenue based on the estimated probability of point obligation incurred.

The Company offers a customer loyalty rewards program that allows members to earn discounts on future purchases. Unused discounts earned by loyalty rewards program members are included in accrued liabilities and recorded as a sales discount at the time a qualifying purchase is made. The value of points accrued as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was approximately $584,000. The amount has been included in accrued liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

15.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

(a)

Claims and Litigation

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, 2025, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s operations. 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.

(b)

Contingencies

The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulation. 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 of the Company believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulation as of December 31, 2024, cannabis regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties, or restrictions in the future.

Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On June 5, 2025, Vireo Growth Inc. (the “Company” or “Vireo”) completed its previously announced acquisition of NGH Investments, Inc. (“NGH”), and Proper Holdings Management, Inc. (“Proper MSA Newco” and together with NGH, the “Proper Companies”), which were owned by Proper Holdings, LLC (“Proper), where pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Proper Merger Agreement”), Vireo acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Proper Companies (the “Proper Merger”) in exchange for the issuance of 196,212,265 subordinate voting shares (the “Subordinate Voting Shares”) of Vireo (subject to the clawback provisions of the Proper Forfeiture Amount, as defined below), representing a value of $78,777,889 (the “Merger Consideration”), including the potential Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Shares and Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Shares, as defined below. The number of Subordinate Voting Shares issued at the closing date of the Proper Merger (the “Proper Closing Date”) was calculated by dividing the Merger Consideration as of the date the Proper Merger Agreement was entered into by a share price reference of $0.52 for Vireo’s Subordinate Voting Shares. In general, the Merger Consideration is based upon a multiple of a $31,000,000 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted for certain items as described in the definition of Merger Consideration in the Proper Merger Agreement, including cash, indebtedness, transaction expenses, working capital, and tax items.

At the Proper Closing Date, each share of common stock of NGH (the “NGH Common Stock”) was converted into, in accordance with the terms of the Proper Merger Agreement, the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, subject to a post-closing purchase price adjustment mechanism, which consideration was paid via newly issued shares of the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares, which had a fair value of $0.39 per share.

At the Proper Closing Date, each share of the common stock of Proper MSA Newco (the “Proper MSA Newco Common Stock”) was converted into, in accordance with the terms of the Proper Merger Agreement, the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, subject to a post-closing purchase price adjustment mechanism, which consideration was paid via newly issued shares of the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares, which had a fair value of $0.39 per share.

Proper, as the sole holder of NGH Common Stock and Proper MSA Newco Common Stock, is also be eligible to receive additional Subordinate Voting Shares through an earn-out mechanism based upon the EBITDA performance of the Proper Companies and their subsidiaries (excluding Arches IP, Inc. (“Arches”)) during 2026 (the “Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Shares”), and the revenue performance of Arches during 2026 (the “Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Shares” and together with the Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Shares, the “Proper Earn-Out Shares”).

The Proper Merger was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with management concluding Vireo is the accounting acquirer.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Vireo and the Proper Companies adjusted to give effect to the Proper Merger and related transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.”

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Vireo and the Proper Companies, both of which have December 31 fiscal year ends, as adjusted to give effect to the Proper Merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Proper Merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Proper Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025.


The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that management believes are reasonable. Included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is an estimate of the consideration exchanged for the Proper Companies, which is based on a purchase price allocation, which includes known information and preliminary estimates of fair value for certain equity instruments and contingent consideration. While this is management’s best estimate at this time, the valuation of these equity instruments and contingent consideration is still in progress and subject to change. All estimates and assumptions included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information could change significantly as management finalizes its assessment of the allocation and fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired, most of which are dependent on the completion of valuations that will be performed by independent valuation specialists. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include adjustments to reflect any synergies or dis-synergies, any future operating efficiencies, associated costs savings or any possible integration costs that may occur related to the Proper Merger. Actual results may be materially different from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented herein.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not necessarily reflect what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Proper Merger occurred on the dates indicated. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial condition and results of operations of the combined company may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors, including differences in accounting policies, elections, and estimates, which while accounted for to the extent known, are still in process of being determined.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1.Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information represents the combined companies’ (Vireo and the Proper Companies) unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Vireo and Proper, adjusted to give effect to the Proper Merger, and should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements from which they are derived.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented in United States dollars.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the Proper Merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations gives effect to the Proper Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025.

In preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, the following historical information was used:

Vireo’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on May 9, 2025; and
The Proper Companies’ unaudited condensed combined financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements including the notes thereto, as listed above.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the operating results or financial condition that would have been achieved if the Proper Merger had been completed on the dates or for the period presented, nor do they purport to project the results of operations or financial position for any future period or as of any future date. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ materially from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect operational and administrative cost savings that may be achieved as a result of the Proper Merger.

Note 2.Accounting Policies and Reclassifications

Subsequent to the consummation of the Proper Merger, management has commenced a comprehensive review of the entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of the entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the post-combination company. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

As part of the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, certain reclassifications were made to align the Proper Companies’ financial statement presentation with that of Vireo.

Note 3.Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Proper Merger and related transactions and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaces the existing pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). Vireo has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma


condensed combined financial information. Vireo and the Proper Companies have not had any historical relationship prior to the Proper Merger. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

The pro forma basic and diluted net loss per share amount presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is based upon the pro forma number of shares of Vireo stock outstanding, assuming the Proper Merger and related transactions occurred on January 1, 2025.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 are as follows:

A

Represents Vireo’s and Proper’s total estimated transactions costs of $5,955,067, which include advisory, banking, legal and due diligence fees that will be expensed as part of the Proper Merger. Of the total estimated transaction costs, $1,522,482 were incurred and reflected in Vireo and Proper’s December 31, 2024 historical financial statements and an additional $1,001,900 have been incurred and are reflected within Vireo and Proper’s March 31, 2025 historical financial statements. As of March 31, 2025, $1,520,682 was recorded in ‘Accounts payable and accrued liabilities’ and $1,003,700 had been paid in cash through March 31, 2025. The remaining $3,430,685 of estimated transaction costs are expected to be incurred after March 31, 2025 (refer to adjustment AA for the impact of these additional estimated transaction costs). The remaining unpaid amount of $4,951,367(consisting of the $1,520,682 of transaction costs accrued as of March 31, 2025 and $3,430,685 expected to be incurred after March 31, 2025) will be paid in cash at the close of the Proper Merger.

B1

Represents adjustments related to (1) the estimated preliminary purchase price allocation for the Proper Merger, including the issuance of Vireo’s Subordinated Voting Shares to Proper as consideration transferred; (2) the step up to fair value for acquired historical intangible assets of $4,488,220; and (3) the recognition of acquired intangible assets and goodwill of $1,791,588 and $44,542,622, respectively. An additional $2,589,061 of goodwill was recognized associated with the Earn-out liability. Refer to adjustment E below. Refer to the table in Note 4 below for additional information related to these adjustments.

Refer to Note 4 for additional information related to the Proper Forfeiture Shares, the Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Shares and the Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Shares.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are as follows:

AA

Represents estimated remaining transaction costs not already reflected in the March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024 historical financial statements of Vireo and Proper of $3,430,685 as if incurred on January 1, 2025, the date the Proper Merger occurred for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

BB

Represents adjustment to record Proper’s additional amortization of $102,690 associated with the stepped up fair value of intangible assets and newly acquired intangible assets.


Note 4.Estimated Purchase Price Consideration

The estimated preliminary purchase price allocation for the Proper Merger and the corresponding aggregate Merger Consideration is presented in the table below as if the Proper Merger closed on March 31, 2025. Following the close of the Proper Merger on June 5, 2025, the purchase price allocation for the Proper Merger has been prepared and is preliminary and subject to revision and as additional information about the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed becomes available. In general, due to the nature of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company has preliminarily determined that the carrying value of those assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2025 approximate their fair value. Management has not finalized the purchase price allocation. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable under the circumstances, are subject to changes, and such changes may be material. Management will continue to refine its identification and valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as further information becomes available. The final allocation is expected to be completed within twelve months of the Proper Closing Date and could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the transaction accounting adjustments. The final allocation may include (1) changes in fair values of inventory and property and equipment; (2) changes in allocations to intangible assets, such as trade names, licenses, and customer relationships, as well as goodwill; and (3) other changes to assets and liabilities.

Total estimated purchase price consideration

The estimated fair values of the components included in the purchase price consideration are preliminary and may materially vary from final results. The Company is still finalizing its conclusions on the accounting treatment associated with the components of the purchase consideration, along with the valuations and necessary calculations related to these components, as described in further detail below. For purposes of preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the Company has included an estimated amount for the ‘Contingent consideration - Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Shares’, the ‘Contingent consideration - Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Shares’, and the ‘Contingent consideration - Proper Forfeiture Amount’. The final conclusions surrounding the accounting treatment, valuations, and necessary calculations for each of the components will be finalized within twelve months of the Proper Closing Date.


Merger Consideration: Estimated Merger Consideration of $78,777,889 is based on the Company’s closing share price of $0.39 on June 5, 2025 multiplied by the number of Vireo Subordinate Voting Shares issued of 196,212,265 (of which up to 50% of such shares are subject to the clawback provisions of the Proper Forfeiture Amount, as defined below, and is included as contingent consideration in the table above), in exchange for acquiring all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Proper Companies.

On the Proper Closing Date, 10% of the Subordinate Voting Shares (the “Proper Escrow Shares”) were delivered to an escrow agent (the “Proper Escrow Agent”) under an escrow agreement (the “Proper Escrow Agreement”). The Proper Escrow Shares will be held by the Proper Escrow Agent pursuant to the Proper Escrow Agreement as a recourse of the Company in support of the purchase price adjustment mechanisms stated in the Proper Merger Agreement. The Proper Escrow Shares that are not otherwise subject to any indemnification claims of the Company indemnified parties will be released to the Proper Companies stockholder following the date that is twenty-four months after the Proper Closing Date.

Contingent consideration

Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Shares: The Proper equity holders, and other subsequent recipients of Subordinate Voting Shares from Proper pursuant to the Proper Merger Agreement (collectively with Proper, the “Proper Share Recipients”) will be eligible to receive a potential earn-out amount (the “Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Amount”) subject to the satisfaction of certain EBITDA performance thresholds during the period beginning on the Proper Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2026 (the “Proper Earn-Out Period”). The Proper Earn-Out Amount will be calculated as an amount equal to (i) the product of four multiplied by the following (which may be a positive or negative number):

(a)  the greater of (1) the trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA of the Proper Companies and their subsidiaries (excluding Arches) for the twelve calendar months ending December 31, 2026 and (2) the trailing nine month adjusted EBITDA of the Proper Companies and their subsidiaries (excluding Arches) for the last nine months of calendar year 2026, with such amount annualized to reflect a full 12-month period, minus

(b)  the closing EBITDA of $31,000,000, minus (ii) the aggregate amount of any indebtedness for borrowed money incurred by the Proper Companies or their subsidiaries (excluding Arches) after the Proper Closing Date, plus (iii) certain tax refund amounts held for the benefit of the Proper Share Recipients pursuant to the Proper Merger Agreement.

The Proper EBITDA Earn-Out Amount shall be paid by the Company through the issuance of newly issued Subordinate Voting Shares at a share price of the greater of $1.05 and the 20-day volume weighted average price of such Subordinate Voting Shares immediately prior to the end of the Proper Earn-Out Period.

Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Shares: The Proper Share Recipients will be eligible to receive a potential earn-out amount (the “Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Amount”) based on the revenue performance of Arches during the Proper Earn-Out Period. The Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Amount will be equal to 15.28% of the greater of (i) $37,500,000 or (ii) subtracting $4,000,000 from the product of five multiplied by:

(1)  5% of the aggregate dollar amount of all delivery sales processed through the Arches platform plus (2) 2.5% of the aggregate dollar amount of certain online pick-up, curbside, or drive thru sales processed through the Arches platform plus (3) 1% of the aggregate dollar amount of certain walk-in sales processed through the Arches platform, with such amount in (ii) measured either (A) during the full twelve month 2026 calendar year or (B) the April 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026 period annualized to reflect a full twelve month period, depending on which measurement period provides the greater sum (the “Proper E-Commerce Revenue Amount”), with such Proper E-Commerce Revenue Amount reduced to take into account the value of the Proper E-Commerce Revenue Amount attributable to any options or similar grants to purchase equity interests of Arches issued and outstanding as of the Proper Closing Date.

The Proper E-Commerce Earn-Out Amount shall be paid by the Company through the issuance of newly issued Subordinate Voting Shares at a share price of the greater of $1.05 and the 20-day volume weighted average price of such Subordinate Voting Shares immediately prior to the end of the Proper Earn-Out Period.

Proper Forfeiture Amount: The Proper Share Recipients will be required to forfeit a portion of the Subordinate Voting Shares received by such Proper Share Recipients calculated and determined in connection with the final actual amount of the Merger Consideration (the “Proper Actual Closing Merger Consideration”) in the event that (i) (a) the higher of (I) the consolidated trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA of the Proper Companies and their subsidiaries (excluding Arches) for the twelve full calendar months ending December 31, 2026, and (II) the consolidated trailing nine month adjusted EBITDA of the Proper Companies and their subsidiaries (excluding Arches) for the last nine months of calendar year 2026, such amount annualized to reflect a full 12-month period, is less than (b) the closing EBITDA of $31,000,000 (the absolute value of the amount of the deficiency (a) to the amount calculated in (b) if any, the “Proper EBITDA Deficiency”).


In the event that the foregoing occurs, the Proper Share Recipients will be required to forfeit an aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares to the Company equal to the Proper Forfeiture Amount (as defined below) divided by the closing share price of $0.52, with such forfeited shares capped at fifty percent (50%) of the total Subordinate Voting Shares issued as Proper Actual Closing Merger Consideration (the “Proper Forfeiture Shares”). The Proper Forfeiture Amount will be calculated as an amount equal to the sum of (i) the product of the Proper acquisition multiple multiplied by the Proper EBITDA Deficiency, plus (ii) the aggregate amount of any indebtedness for borrowed money incurred by the Proper Companies or their subsidiaries (excluding Arches) after the Proper Closing Date, minus (iii) the amount of any cash remaining in the Proper member representative expense fund, and minus (iv) certain tax refund amounts held for the benefit of the Proper Share Recipients pursuant to the Proper Merger Agreement.

The accounting treatment of the Proper Earn-Out Shares and potential forfeitures related to the Proper Forfeiture Shares are expected to be recognized at fair value upon the closing of the Proper Merger. The Company has determined this feature to be liability classified. As the Proper Earn-Out Shares and potential forfeitures related to the Proper Forfeiture Shares were determined to be classified as a liability on the balance sheet, Vireo will recognize subsequent changes in the fair value of such items as a gain or loss at each reporting period during the Proper Earn-Out Period, pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.

Identifiable Net Assets Acquired

In connection with the Proper Merger, the Company will recognize $10,328,740 of identifiable intangible assets pertaining to certain cannabis licenses being acquired in the acquisition of the Proper Companies, $1,791,588 of additional acquired developed technology, and $47,131,683 of goodwill, which represents the excess purchase price over fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, pursuant to the preliminary purchase price allocation. Goodwill will not be amortized, but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if certain indicators are present. In the event that the value of goodwill or other intangible assets become impaired in the future, an accounting charge for impairment would be recognized during the period in which the determination was made.

The purchase price has been allocated to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on the respective estimated fair values and will be finalized upon the closing of the Proper Merger. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets has been recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents potential operational synergies, various expense synergies, and opportunities to enter new markets, and is assigned to the Company’s cultivation, production, and sale of cannabis business segment.


Note 5.Net Loss per Share

Net loss per share was calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Proper Merger, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2025. As the Proper Merger is being reflected as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Proper Merger have been outstanding for the entirety of the period presented.

Exhibit 99.4

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

On June 6, 2025, Vireo Growth Inc. (the “Company” or “Vireo”) completed its previously announced acquisition of Deep Roots Holdings, Inc. (“Deep Roots”), where pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Deep Roots Merger Agreement”), Vireo acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Deep Roots (the “Deep Roots Merger”) in exchange for the issuance of 251,210,053 subordinate voting shares (the “Subordinate Voting Shares”) of Vireo (subject to the clawback provisions of the Deep Roots Forfeiture Amount and Deep Roots New Retail Forfeiture Amount, as defined below), representing a value of $100,169,437 (the “Merger Consideration”), including the potential Deep Roots Earn-Out Shares, as defined below. The number of Subordinate Voting Shares issued at the closing date of the Deep Roots Merger (the “Deep Roots Closing Date”) was calculated by dividing the Merger Consideration as of the date the Deep Roots Merger Agreement was entered into by a share price reference of $0.52 for Vireo’s Subordinate Voting Shares. In general, the Merger Consideration is based upon a multiple of a $31,000,000 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted for certain items as described in the definition of Merger Consideration in the Deep Roots Merger Agreement, including cash, indebtedness, transaction expenses, working capital, and tax items.

At the Deep Roots Closing Date, each share of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Deep Roots (the “Deep Roots Common Stock”) was converted into, in accordance with the terms of the Deep Roots Merger Agreement, the applicable portion of the Merger Consideration, subject to a post-closing purchase price adjustment mechanism, which Merger Consideration was paid via newly issued shares of the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares, which had a fair value of $0.39 per share. The holders of Deep Roots Common Stock are also eligible to receive additional Subordinate Voting Shares through an earn-out mechanism based upon the EBITDA performance of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries during 2026 (the “Deep Roots Earn-Out Shares”).

The Deep Roots Merger was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with management concluding Vireo is the accounting acquirer.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the financial information of Vireo and Deep Roots adjusted to give effect to the Deep Roots Merger and related transactions. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.”

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Vireo and Deep Roots, both of which have December 31 fiscal year ends, as adjusted to give effect to the Deep Roots Merger. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Deep Roots Merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 gives effect to the Deep Roots Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025.

The pro forma adjustments are based on available information and assumptions that management believes are reasonable. Included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is an estimate of the consideration exchanged for Deep Roots, which is based on a purchase price allocation, which includes known information and preliminary estimates of fair value for certain equity instruments and contingent consideration. While this is management’s best estimate at this time, the valuation of these equity instruments and contingent consideration is still in process and subject to change. All estimates and assumptions included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information could change significantly as management finalizes its assessment of the allocation and fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired, most of which are dependent on the completion of valuations that will be performed by independent valuation specialists. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include adjustments to reflect any synergies or dis-synergies, any future operating efficiencies, associated costs savings or any possible integration costs that may occur related to the Deep Roots Merger. Actual results may be materially different from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented herein.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not necessarily reflect what the combined company’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Deep Roots Merger occurred on the dates indicated. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The actual financial condition and results of operations of the combined company may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors, including differences in accounting policies, elections, and estimates, which while accounted for to the extent known, are still in process of being determined.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1.Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information represents the combined companies’ (Vireo and Deep Roots) unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based on the historical financial statements of Vireo and Deep Roots, adjusted to give effect to the Deep Roots Merger, and should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements from which they are derived.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented in United States dollars.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the Deep Roots Merger as if it had occurred on March 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations gives effect to the Deep Roots Merger as if it had occurred on January 1, 2025.

In preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations, the following historical information was used:

·

Vireo’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on May 9, 2025; and

·

Deep Roots’ unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements including the notes thereto, as listed above.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined information has been prepared for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the operating results or financial condition that would have been achieved if the Deep Roots Merger had been completed on the dates or for the period presented, nor does it purport to project the results of operations or financial position for any future period or as of any future date. The actual financial position and results of operations may differ materially from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not reflect operational and administrative cost savings that may be achieved as a result of the Deep Roots Merger.

Note 2.Accounting Policies and Reclassifications

Subsequent to the consummation of the Deep Roots Merger, management has commenced a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of the post-combination company. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

As part of the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, certain reclassifications were made to align Deep Roots’ financial statement presentation with that of Vireo.

Note 3.Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Deep Roots Merger and related transactions and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaces the existing pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the transaction (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and present the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management’s Adjustments”). Vireo has elected not to present Management’s Adjustments and will only be presenting Transaction Accounting Adjustments in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Vireo and Deep Roots have not had any historical relationship prior to the Deep Roots Merger. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.


The pro forma basic and diluted net loss per share amount presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is based upon the pro forma number of shares of Vireo stock outstanding, assuming the Deep Roots Merger and related transactions occurred on January 1, 2025.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 are as follows:

A

Represents Vireo’s and Deep Roots’ total estimated transactions costs of $6,541,391, which include advisory, banking, legal and due diligence fees that will be expensed as part of the Deep Roots Merger.

As of March 31, 2025, $933,681 was recorded in ‘Accounts payable and accrued liabilities’ and $2,282,058 had been paid in cash through March 31, 2025. The remaining $3,325,652 of estimated transaction costs are expected to be incurred after March 31, 2025 (refer to adjustment AA for the impact of these additional estimated transaction costs). The remaining unpaid amount of $4,259,333 (consisting of the $933,681 of transaction costs accrued as of March 31, 2025 and $3,325,652 expected to be incurred after March 31, 2025) will be paid in cash at the close of the Deep Roots Merger.

B1

Represents adjustments related to: (1) the elimination of the historical Deep Roots goodwill balance of $6,252,267 given it is not an identifiable asset under ASC 805; (2) the estimated preliminary purchase price allocation for the Deep Roots Merger, including the issuance of Vireo’s Subordinate Voting Shares to legacy Deep Roots shareholders as consideration transferred; (3) the step up to fair value for acquired historical intangible assets of $18,567,241; and (4) the recognition of goodwill of $15,748,580. An additional $2,625,427 of goodwill was recognized  associated with the Earn-out liability. Refer to Note E below. Refer to the table in Note 4 below for additional information related to these adjustments.

B2

Represents the elimination of Deep Roots’’ historical equity as a result of the business combination by: (1) reclassifying Deep Roots’ ‘Retained earnings’ balance of $52,472,121 to Additional paid-in capital; and (2) reclassifying Deep Roots’ Common stock’ balance of $100,000 to Additional paid-in capital.

C

Not used.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are as follows:

AA

Represents estimated remaining transaction costs not already reflected in the March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024 historical financial statements of Vireo and Deep Roots of $3,325,652 as if incurred on January 1, 2025, the date the Deep Roots Merger occurred for the purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

BB

Represents adjustment to record Deep Roots’ additional amortization of $299,496 associated with the stepped up fair value of intangible assets.


Note 4.Estimated Purchase Price Consideration

The estimated preliminary purchase price allocation for the Deep Roots Merger and the corresponding aggregate Merger Consideration is presented in the table below as if the Deep Roots Merger closed on March 31, 2025. Following the close of the Deep Roots Merger on June 6, 2025, the purchase price allocation for the Deep Roots Merger has been prepared and is preliminary and subject to revision and as additional information about the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed becomes available. In general, due to the nature of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company has preliminarily determined that the carrying value of those assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2025 approximate their fair value. Management has not finalized the purchase price allocation. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes a preliminary allocation of the purchase price based on assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable under the circumstances, are subject to changes, and such changes may be material. Management will continue to refine its identification and valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as further information becomes available. The final allocation is expected to be completed within twelve months of the Deep Roots Closing Date and could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in the transaction accounting adjustments. The final allocation may include (1) changes in fair values of inventory and property and equipment; (2) changes in allocations to intangible assets, such as trade names, licenses, and customer relationships, as well as goodwill; and (3) other changes to assets and liabilities.

Total estimated purchase price consideration

The estimated fair values of the components included in the purchase price consideration are preliminary and may materially vary from final results. The Company is still finalizing its conclusions on the accounting treatment associated with the components of the purchase consideration, along with the valuations and necessary calculations related to these components, as described in further detail below. For purposes of preparing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, the Company has included an estimated amount for the ‘Contingent consideration - Deep Roots Earn-Out Shares’, ‘Contingent consideration - Deep Roots Forfeiture Amount’, and the ‘Contingent consideration - New Retail Forfeiture Amount’ components. The final conclusions surrounding the accounting treatment, valuations, and necessary calculations for each of the components will be finalized within twelve months of the Deep Roots Closing Date.


Merger Consideration: Estimated Merger Consideration of $100,169,437 is based on the Company’s closing share price of $0.39 on June 6, 2025 multiplied by the number of Vireo Subordinate Voting Shares issued of 251,210,053 (of which up to 50% of such shares are subject to the clawback provisions of the Deep Roots Forfeiture Amount, as defined below, and is included as contingent consideration in the table above), in exchange for acquiring all of the issued and outstanding shares of Deep Roots. Included in the 251,210,053 Subordinate Voting Shares issued was a pre-closing compensatory award from Deep Roots to the holders of its incentive common stock in the amount of $6,205,000 (the “Compensatory Award”). In respect of the Compensatory Award, the Company issued a number of its Subordinate Voting Shares (the “Parent Shares”) to the former holders of Deep Roots’ incentive common stock equal to the Compensatory Award divided by $0.52 for an aggregate of 11,932,692 Parent Shares, less the number of Parent Shares withheld to satisfy applicable income, payroll, and employment taxes. The Parent Shares were issued to the former holders of Deep Roots’ incentive common stock in consideration for a corresponding decrease in the Merger Consideration under the Deep Roots Merger Agreement in an amount equal to the Compensatory Award, and no portion of the Merger Consideration was paid by the Company in respect of Deep Roots’ incentive common stock (which was cancelled as part of the Deep Roots Merger). Further, the Parent Shares issued in respect of the Compensatory Award will not be eligible to receive any portion of the earn-out payments, or be subject to the clawback provisions, that are applicable to the Deep Roots stockholders under the Deep Roots Merger Agreement.

On the Deep Roots Closing Date, 10% of the Subordinate Voting Shares (the “Deep Roots Escrow Shares”) were delivered to an escrow agent (the “Deep Roots Escrow Agent”) under an escrow agreement (the “Deep Roots Escrow Agreement”). The Deep Roots Escrow Shares will be held by the Deep Roots Escrow Agent pursuant to the Deep Roots Escrow Agreement as a recourse of the Company in support of the purchase price adjustment mechanisms stated in the Deep Roots Merger Agreement. The Deep Roots Escrow Shares that are not otherwise subject to any indemnification claims of the Company indemnified parties will be released to the Deep Roots stockholders following the date that is twenty-four months after the Deep Roots Closing Date.

Contingent consideration:

Deep Roots Earn-Out Shares: Pursuant to the Deep Roots Merger Agreement, the Deep Roots stockholders will be eligible to receive a potential earn-out amount (the “Deep Roots Earn-Out Amount”) subject to the satisfaction of certain EBITDA performance thresholds during the period beginning on the Deep Roots Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2026 (the “Deep Roots Earn-Out Period”). The Deep Roots Earn-Out Amount will be calculated as an amount equal to (i) the product of four multiplied by the following (which may be a positive or negative number):

(a)  the greater of (1) the trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the twelve  calendar months ending December 31, 2026 and (2) the trailing nine month adjusted EBITDA of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the last nine months of calendar year 2026, with such amount annualized to reflect a full 12-month period, in each case excluding gains or losses on certain existing investments of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries, minus

(b)  the sum of (1) the closing EBITDA of $30,000,000 plus (2) an amount of $1,000,000 in respect of EBTIDA generated by a new retail store if such new retail store is operational as of April 1, 2025, and if such new retail store is not operational by April 1, 2025, $0, in each case as calculated and finally determined in connection with the final actual amount of the Merger Consideration (the “Deep Roots Actual Closing Merger Consideration”), minus (3) if applicable and to the extent not included as an adjustment to the Deep Roots Actual Closing Merger Consideration, $1,000,000 imputed as EBITDA generated by a specified new retail store if such new retail store is not operational by April 1, 2025, plus and minus (as applicable) (ii) (a) plus, seventy-five percent (75%) of the aggregate amount, if any, of any gains on certain existing investments of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries during the Deep Roots Earn-Out Period, and (b) minus, seventy-five percent (75%) of the aggregate amount, if any, of any losses on certain existing investments of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries during the Deep Roots Earn-Out Period, minus (iii) the aggregate amount of any indebtedness for borrowed money incurred by Deep Roots or its subsidiaries after the Deep Roots Closing Date, plus (iv) the amount of any cash remaining in a stockholder representative expense fund (the “Deep Roots Stockholder Representative Expense Fund”), plus (v) certain tax refund amounts held for the benefit of the Deep Roots stockholders pursuant to the Deep Roots Merger Agreement.

The Deep Roots Earn-Out Amount shall be paid by the Company through the issuance of newly issued Subordinate Voting Shares at a share price of the greater of $1.05 and the 20-day volume weighted average price of such Subordinate Voting Shares immediately prior to the end of the Deep Roots Earn-Out Period.


Deep Roots Forfeiture Amount: The stockholders of Deep Roots will be required to forfeit a portion of the Subordinate Voting Shares received by such stockholders as Deep Roots Actual Closing Merger Consideration in the event that (i) (a) the higher of (I) the consolidated trailing twelve month adjusted EBITDA of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the twelve full calendar months ending December 31, 2026, and (II) the consolidated trailing nine month adjusted EBITDA of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the last nine months of calendar year 2026, such amount annualized to reflect a full 12-month period, is less than (b) ninety-six and one-half percent (96.5%) of the sum of (I) the closing EBITDA of $30,000,000 plus (II) an amount of $1,000,000 in respect of EBTIDA generated by a new retail store if such new retail store is operational as of April 1, 2025, and if such new retail store is not operational by April 1, 2025, $0, in each case as calculated and finally determined in connection with the Deep Roots Actual Closing Merger Consideration, minus, (III) if applicable and to the extent not included as an adjustment to the Deep Roots Actual Closing Merger Consideration, $1,000,000 imputed as EBITDA generated by a specified new retail store if such new retail store is not operational by April 1, 2025 or already deducted pursuant to subsection (II) above (the absolute value of the amount of the deficiency (a) to the amount calculated in (b) if any, the “Deep Roots EBITDA Deficiency”); and (ii) (a) consolidated market share in Nevada of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the year ending December 31, 2026 is less than consolidated market share in Nevada of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2024, or (b) the consolidated EBITDA margin of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the year ending December 31, 2026, is less than the consolidated EBITDA margin of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2024; and (iii) the 20-day volume weighted average price of such Subordinate Voting Shares immediately prior to the end of the Deep Roots Earn-Out Period is greater than $1.05 per Subordinate Voting Share.

In the event that the foregoing occurs, the Deep Roots stockholders will be required to forfeit an aggregate number of Subordinate Voting Shares to the Company equal to the Deep Roots Forfeiture Amount (as defined below) divided by the closing share price of $0.52, with such forfeited shares capped at fifty percent (50%) of the total Subordinate Voting Shares issued as Deep Roots Actual Closing Merger Consideration (the “Deep Roots Forfeiture Shares”). The Deep Roots Forfeiture Amount will be calculated as an amount equal to the sum of (i) the product of the Deep Roots acquisition multiple multiplied by the Deep Roots EBITDA Deficiency, minus (ii) the product of (a) 0.75 multiplied by (b) any gains on certain existing investments of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries, plus (iii) the product of (a) 0.75 multiplied by (b) any losses on certain existing investments of Deep Roots and its subsidiaries, plus (iv) the aggregate amount of any indebtedness for borrowed money incurred by Deep Roots or its subsidiaries after the Deep Roots Closing Date, minus (v) the amount of any cash remaining in the Deep Roots Stockholder Representative Expense Fund, and minus (vi) certain tax refund amounts held for the benefit of the Deep Roots stockholders pursuant to the Deep Roots Merger Agreement.

Deep Roots New Retail Forfeiture Amount: The following contingency has been resolved as all retail stores were operational by April 1, 2025. In the event that a specified new retail store had not been operational by April 1, 2025, and only to the extent that such amount was not previously taken into account in the determination of the Deep Roots Closing Merger Consideration described above, the Company would have been entitled to a payment equal to $1,000,000 imputed as EBITDA generated by a specified new retail store if such new retail store was not operational by April 1, 2025 (the “Deep Roots New Retail Forfeiture Amount”). If such $1,000,000 payment became owed to the Company, the stockholder representative for Deep Roots could have elected to direct (i) the release to the Company of an amount from the Deep Roots Stockholder Representative Expense Fund, (ii) the Deep Roots stockholders to pay to the Company $1,000,000 in cash, or (iii) the Escrow Agent to release to the Company an aggregate number of Deep Roots Escrow Shares (rounded up to the nearest whole number) equal to $1,000,000 divided by the closing share price of $0.52, or any combination of the foregoing.

The accounting treatment of the Deep Roots Earn-Out Shares and potential forfeitures related to the Deep Roots Forfeiture Shares are expected to be recognized at fair value upon the closing of the Deep Roots Merger. The Company has determined that the earnout features are liability classified. As the Deep Root Earn-Out Shares and potential forfeitures related to the Deep Roots Forfeiture Shares were determined to be classified as a liability on the balance sheet, Vireo will recognize subsequent changes in the fair value of such items as a gain or loss at each reporting period during the Deep Roots Earn-Out Period, pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.

Identifiable Net Assets Acquired

In connection with the Deep Roots Merger, the Company will recognize $38,510,950 of identifiable intangible assets pertaining to certain cannabis licenses being acquired in the acquisition of Deep Roots and $18,374,007 of goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, pursuant to the preliminary purchase price allocation. Goodwill will be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if certain indicators are present. In the event that the value of goodwill or other intangible assets become impaired in the future, an accounting charge for impairment would be recognized during the period in which the determination was made.

The purchase price has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on the respective estimated fair values and will be finalized upon the closing of the Deep Roots Merger. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets has been recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents potential revenue synergies related to new product development, various expense synergies and opportunities to enter new markets, and is assigned to the Company’s cultivation, production, and sale of cannabis business segment.


Note 5.Net Loss per Share

Net loss per share was calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Deep Roots Merger, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2025. As the Deep Roots Merger is being reflected as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Deep Roots Merger have been outstanding for the entirety of the period presented.
