FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” regarding The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “The Cannabist Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”). We make forward-looking statements related to future expectations, estimates, and projections that are uncertain and often contain words such as, but not limited to, “may”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “will”, “intend”, “plan”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect” or other similar words or phrases. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Particular risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different from those expressed in our forward-looking statements include those listed below:

the impact of the termination of the Cresco Labs Inc. transaction on the Company’s current and future operations, financial condition and prospects;
the impact of the Company's corporate restructuring plan;
the fact that marijuana remains illegal under federal law;
the application of anti-money laundering laws and regulations to the Company;
legal, regulatory, or political change to the cannabis industry;
access to public and private capital;
unfavorable publicity or consumer perception of the cannabis industry;
expansion to the adult-use markets;
the impact of laws, regulations, and guidelines;
the impact of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code;
the impact of state laws pertaining to the cannabis industry;
the Company’s reliance on key inputs, suppliers and skilled labor;
the difficulty of forecasting the Company’s sales;
constraints on marketing products;
potential cyber-attacks and security breaches;
net operating loss and other tax attribute limitations;
the impact of changes in tax laws;
the volatility of the market price of the Common Shares;
reliance on management;
litigation;
future results and financial projections; and
the impact of global financial conditions.

 

The list of factors above is illustrative and by no means exhaustive. Additional information regarding these risks and other risks and uncertainties we face is contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, or intended.

We urge readers to consider these risks and uncertainties in evaluating our forward-looking statements. We caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, statement of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current year ending December 31, 2024. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the instructions to Form 10-Q.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in United States dollars except as otherwise indicated. All references to C$, CAD$ and CDN$ are to Canadian dollars.

Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC, on March 13, 2024. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants and was not in default of any provisions under any of its debt arrangements as of March 31, 2024.

 

2026 Notes

 

On February 3, 2022, the Company closed a private placement (the “February 2022 Private Placement”) of $185,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.50% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $153,250. The 2026 Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 100.0% of face value. The 2026 Notes accrue interest in arrears which is payable semi-annually and mature on February 3, 2026, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Company may redeem the 2026 Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after February 3, 2024, as more particularly described

8


 

in the fourth supplemental trust indenture governing the 2026 Notes. In connection with the offering of the 2026 Notes, the Company exchanged $31,750 of the Company’s existing 13.0% senior secured first-lien notes (the “13.0% Term Debt”), pursuant to private agreements in accordance with the trust indenture, for an equivalent amount of 2026 Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest and any negotiated premium thereon.

 

The premium and paid interest were paid out of funds raised from the February 2022 Private Placement. The total unamortized debt and debt issuance costs of $2,153, related to the modified portion of the 13.0% Term Debt, will be amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest method. The Company incurred $7,189 in creditor fees in connection with the modified 13.0% Term Debt and 2026 Notes and $301 in third-party legal fees related to 2026 Notes which were capitalized and will be amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest rate method.

 

2024 Notes

 

As further described in Note 4 under the sub-heading “Term debt” of the Financial Statements incorporated by reference in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, on October 23, 2023, the Company retired $25 million of its 13% Notes due May 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) through a proportional redemption process.

 

The 2024 Notes require interest-only payments through May 14, 2024, at a rate of 13.0% per annum, payable semi-annually on May 31 and November 30, which commenced on November 30, 2020. The 2024 Notes are due in full on May 14, 2024. The Company incurred financing costs of $3,373 in connection with the issuance of these 2024 Notes. The 2024 Notes contain customary terms and conditions, representations and warranties, and events of default.

 

2027 Convertible Notes

 

On March 19, 2024, the Company closed a private placement (the “March 2024 Private Placement”) of $25,750 aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $15,600. The 2027 Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 80.0% of face value. The 2027 Notes accrue interest in arrears which is payable semi-annually and mature on March 19, 2027. In connection with the offering of the 2027 Notes, the Company exchanged $5,000 of the Company’s existing 6.0% 2025 Convertible Notes.

 

The principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2027 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2027 Convertible Notes, the Company is unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $2,632 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount and debt issuance costs of $5,952, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2027 Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt premium and debt issuance costs is amortized over the term of the 2027 Notes.

 

2025 Convertible Notes

 

On June 29, 2021, the Company completed an offering of 6.0% Secured Convertible Notes Due 2025 (“2025 Convertible Notes”) for an aggregate principal amount of $74,500. The 2025 Convertible Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears and mature on June 29, 2025, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2025 Convertible Notes shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, from the date of issuance until the date that is 10 days prior to their maturity date into Common Shares of the Company at a conversion price equal to $6.49 payable on the business day prior to the date of conversion, adjusted downwards for any cash dividends paid to holders of Common Shares and other customary adjustments. The Company may redeem the 2025 Convertible Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after June 29, 2023, if the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares trading on the Canadian Stock Exchange or Cboe Canada for 15 of the 30 trading days immediately preceding the day on which the Company exercises its redemption right, exceeds 120.0% of the conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes at a Redemption Price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the Redemption Date.

 

The 2025 Convertible Notes require interest-only payments until June 29, 2025, at a rate of 6.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in June and December and commencing in December 2021. The 2025 Convertible Notes are due in full on June 29, 2025. The Company incurred financing costs of $3,190 in connection with the 2025 Convertible Notes. The principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2025 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this

conversion feature within the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company is unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $15,099 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt discount is amortized over the term of the 2025 Convertible Notes.

 

 

January 2024 Debt Exchange

On January 22, 2024, the Company entered into the Exchange Agreement with certain Holders of the Company’s 6.0% senior secured 2025 Convertible Notes, pursuant to which the Company agreed to the Repurchase of up to $25 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for Common Shares (the “January 2024 Debt Exchange”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holders shall:

 

by January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.41 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice;
provided that the five-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the Exchange is greater than C$0.47 as of the close of trading at 4:01pm on January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at the Initial Exchange Price on or prior to February 29, 2024; and
provided that the February Exchange is completed and the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe is greater than C$0.87 for 5 consecutive trading days, provided that, the trading volume of the Common Shares on Cboe was equal to or greater than 600,000 Common Shares on the applicable trading dates, from the period commencing on January 1, 2024 and ending on June 30, 2024, transfer in three separate equal tranches, an aggregate of $15 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.57 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice, in each case, subject to adjustment in certain instances, on or prior to June 30, 2024.

In the event the conditions are fulfilled and the Holders fail to Transfer their 2025 Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the Holders to Transfer some or all of the portion of the $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes still held by the Holders. Assuming all of the conditions are fulfilled, and the entire $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes are Transferred for Common Shares issued at the minimum prices set out in the Exchange Agreement, a maximum of 68,564,698 Common Shares would be issued in connection with the Repurchase. Through March 31, 2024, $10 million of the potential $25 million exchange has been completed.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors and senior management that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited.

Additionally, the Company may be contingently liable with respect to other claims incidental to the ordinary course of its operations. In the opinion of management, and based on management’s consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate outcome of such other matters will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company. Accordingly, no provision has been made in these consolidated financial statements for losses, if any, which might result from the ultimate disposition of these matters should they arise.

The carrying amounts of cash and restricted cash, accounts receivable, and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities, current portion of long-term debt and lease liability as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these items and are not included in the table above. The Company’s other long-term liabilities and long-term debt approximate fair value due to the market rate of interest used on initial recognition.

In addition to the disclosures for assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, companies are required to disclose the estimated fair values of all financial instruments, even if they are not presented at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of financial instruments are estimates based upon market conditions and perceived risks as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These estimates require management's judgment and may not be indicative of the future fair values of the assets and liabilities.

Utah Business Divestiture

On October 6, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive agreement, subject to closing conditions, to dispose of its Utah operations (the “Utah Business”) which are considered non-core and comprised of one dispensary and one cultivation facility. The Utah Business was divested for gross proceeds of approximately $6.5 million, with approximately $3.9 million due on closing of the transaction, and a $2.6 million Seller note payable to the Company not later than July 2025. The sale of the Utah assets was completed on March 7, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, no assets or liabilities of the disposed-of business remained on our consolidated balance sheets. The table below summarizes the operating results of Columbia Care UT, LLC for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc. (“The Cannabist Company”, the “Company”, “us”, “our” or “we”) is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, The Cannabist Company's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the accompanying notes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Except for historical information, the discussion in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Future results could differ materially from those discussed below for many reasons, including the risks described in “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Item 1A-Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2024 and subsequent securities filings.

The Cannabist Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Financial information presented in this MD&A is presented in thousands of United States dollars (“$” or “US$”), unless otherwise indicated.

OVERVIEW OF THE CANNABIST COMPANY

Our principal business activity is the production and sale of cannabis. We strive to be the premier provider of cannabis-related products in each of the markets in which we operate. Our mission is to improve lives by providing cannabis-based health and wellness solutions through community partnerships, research, education and the responsible use of our products as a natural means to improve the quality of life of our patients and customers.

THE CANNABIST COMPANY OBJECTIVES AND FACTORS AFFECTING OUR PERFORMANCE

As one of the largest fully integrated operators in the cannabis industry, our strategy to grow our business is comprised of the following key components:

Expansion and development within and outside our current markets
Patient and customer-centric, leveraging health and wellness focus
Consistency and quality of proprietary product portfolio, including branded consumer products
Intellectual property and data-driven innovation

Our performance and future success are dependent on several factors. These factors are also subject to inherent risks and challenges, some of which are discussed below.

Branding

We have established a national branding strategy across each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Maintaining and growing our brand appeal is critical to our continued success. Effective September 2023, the Company changed its name from “Columbia Care Inc.” to “The Cannabist Company Holdings Inc.” reflecting the Company's "Cannabist" national retail brand that was established in 2021.

Regulation

 

We are subject to the local and federal laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We hold all required licenses for the production and distribution of our products in the jurisdictions in which we operate and continuously monitor changes in laws, regulations, treaties and agreements.

Product Innovation and Consumer Trends

Our business is subject to changing consumer trends and preferences, which is dependent, in part, on continued consumer interest in new products. The success of new product offerings, depends upon a number of factors, including our ability to (i) accurately anticipate customer needs; (ii) develop new products that meet these needs; (iii) successfully commercialize new products; (iv) price products competitively; (v) produce and deliver products in sufficient volumes and on a timely basis; and (vi) differentiate product offerings from those of competitors.


Growth and Profitability Strategies

 

We have a successful history of growing revenue and we believe we have a strong strategy aimed at increasing profitability. Our future depends, in part, on our ability to implement our strategy including (i) product innovations; (ii) penetration of current and new markets; (iii) growth of wholesale revenue through third party retailers and distributors; (iv) future development of e-commerce and home delivery distribution capabilities; (v) expansion of our cultivation and manufacturing capacity; and (vi) controlling costs. Our ability to implement this strategy depends, among other things, on our ability to develop new products that appeal to consumers, maintain and expand brand

loyalty, maintain and improve product quality and brand recognition, maintain and improve competitive position in our current markets, and identify and successfully enter and market products in new geographic areas and segments.

Revenues

 

The decrease in revenue of $1,924 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by the net decline in revenue of $3,217 in our existing retail and wholesale operations and a decline of $476 from the sale or closure of certain operations. This was partly offset by the expansion of new retail facilities which contributed to a revenue growth of $1,769 during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior period.

 

Cost of Sales

The increase in cost of sales of $2,620 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by a cost of sales increase of $2,616 in our existing retail and wholesale operations, including from inventory impairment, and by $601 from the expansion of new retail facilities. This was partly offset by a decline of $598 from the sale or closure of certain operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior period.

 

Gross Profit

 

The decrease in gross profit of $4,544 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was directly attributable to the decline in revenues and increased cost of sales as described above. The decline in gross margin (percent) was primarily driven by production facilities poised for future economies of scale and price compression.

 

Operating Expenses

 

The decrease of $2,077 in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily attributable to a decrease in salary and benefits expenses of $2,792, depreciation and amortization of $1,509, professional fees of $297, advertisement and promotion expenses of $934, and operating office and general expenses of $500. This was partially offset by an increase in operating office and general expenses of $3,159 and operating facilities costs of $796.

 

Other Expense, Net

 

The decrease in other expense, net of $2,650 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense on debt of $3,080, loss on deconsolidation from the sale or closure of certain operations of $2,473, restructuring expense of $602, amortization of debt discount of $162, amortization of debt issuance costs of $298, and interest expense on leases of $158. This was partially offset by an increase in the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $2,317, a loss on disposal of group of $811, a decrease in rental income earned of $785, and a decrease in other income of $209.


Provisions for Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $8,868 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to an income tax expense of $10,689 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

Non-GAAP Measures

We use certain non-GAAP measures, referenced in this MD&A. These measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation from nor as a substitute for our financial information reported under GAAP. We use non-GAAP measures including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin which may be calculated differently by other companies. These non-GAAP measures and metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and liquidity and thus highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented. We also recognize that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of companies within our industry. Finally, we use non-GAAP measures and metrics in order to facilitate evaluation of operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of executive compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA

 

The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily driven by declines in gross profit in the ongoing wholesale and retail operations and through restructuring and disposal activity, partially offset by improved leverage of revenues across selling, general, and administrative expenses such as facility costs, salary costs, and benefit costs.

 

Our future financial results are subject to significant potential fluctuations caused by, among other things, growth of sales volume in new and existing markets and our ability to control operating expenses. In addition, our financial results may be impacted significantly by changes to the regulatory environment in which we operate, on a local, state and federal level.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our business, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Historically, we have relied on external financing as our primary source of liquidity. Our ability to fund our operations and to make capital expenditures depends on our ability to successfully secure financing through issuance of debt or equity, as well as our ability to improve our future operating performance and cash flows, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.

We are currently meeting our obligations and are earning revenues from our operations. However, we have sustained losses since inception and may require additional capital in the future. We estimate that based on our current business operations and working capital, we will continue to meet our obligations in the short term. As we continue to focus on profitability, we endeavor to remain opportunistic on growth through expansion or acquisition, therefore our cash flow requirements and obligations could materially change. As of March 31, 2024, we did not have any significant external capital requirements.


Recent Financing Transactions

 

September 2023 Offering

 

On September 18, 2023, the Company entered into subscription agreements with the September 2023 Investors for the purchase and sale of 22,244,210 September 2023 Units at a price of C$1.52 per September 2023 Unit pursuant to a private placement, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$33.8 million or approximately $25 million. Each September 2023 Unit consists of one Common Share (or Common Share equivalent) and one half of one September 2023 Warrant that entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of C$1.96 per Common Share, a 29% premium to issue, for a period of three years following the closing of the Initial Tranche.

19


 

The Initial Tranche consisted of an aggregate of 21,887,240 Common Shares, 11,122,105 September 2023 Warrants and 356,970 September 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants that provide the holder the right to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of C$0.0001 per Common Share. The September 2023 Offering closed on September 21, 2023.


The Company used the proceeds from the September 2023 Offering to reduce its outstanding indebtedness.


The September 2023 Investors had the option to purchase $25 million in additional September 2023 Units at a price equal to the Issue Price, upon written notice to the Company at any time up to November 2, 2023, which was not exercised. In connection with the September 2023 Offering, the Company and the September 2023 Investors entered into a customary registration rights agreement, pursuant to which the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 on October 17, 2023 to register the resale of the Common Shares underlying the September 2023 Units. The September 2023 Units were subject to limited lock-up requirements.

 

January 2024 Debt Exchange

On January 22, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with certain holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s 6.0% senior secured 2025 Convertible Notes, pursuant to which the Company agreed to repurchase (the “Repurchase”) of up to $25 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for Common Shares.

Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holders shall:

by January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of 2024 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.41 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares (the “Initial Exchange Price”) on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice;

provided that the five-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the Cboe is greater than C$0.47 as of the close of trading at 4:01pm on January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at the Initial Exchange Price on or prior to February 29, 2024; and
provided that the February Exchange is completed and the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe is greater than C$0.87 for 5 consecutive trading days, provided that, the trading volume of the Common Shares on Cboe was equal to or greater than 600,000 Common Shares on the applicable trading dates, from the period commencing on January 1, 2024 and ending on June 30, 2024, transfer in three separate equal tranches, an aggregate of $15 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.57 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice, in each case, subject to adjustment in certain instances, on or prior to June 30, 2024.

In the event the conditions are fulfilled and the Holders fail to Transfer their 2025 Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the Holders to Transfer some or all of the portion of the $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes still held by the Holders. Assuming all of the conditions are fulfilled, and the entire $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes are Transferred for Common Shares issued at the minimum prices set out in the Exchange Agreement, a maximum of 68,564,698 Common Shares would be issued in connection with the Repurchase. Through March 31, 2024, $10 million of the potential $25 million exchange has been completed.

 

2027 Convertible Notes

On March 19, 2024, the Company closed a private placement (the “March 2024 Private Placement”) of $25,750 aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $15,600. The 2027 Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 80.0% of face value. The 2027 Notes accrue interest in arrears which is payable semi-annually and mature on March 19, 2027. In connection with the offering of the 2027 Notes, the Company exchanged $5,000 of the Company’s existing 6.0% 2025 Convertible Notes.

The Company determined that the 2027 Notes represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a fixed amount of liability. In accordance with ASC 480 – Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, a conversion feature within a financial instrument to issue a variable number of equity units fails to meet the definition of equity. Accordingly, such a conversion feature must be accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Upon initial recognition, the Company recorded a derivative liability of $2,362 within other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and a corresponding debt premium and debt issuance costs of $5,952, reflected as a reduction to the carrying

20


 

value of the 2027 Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt premium and debt issuance costs is amortized over the term of the 2027 Notes.

Mortgages

On August 10, 2023, the Company entered into two term loans and security agreements with a bank as follows:

The first agreement provides for a $6,250 mortgage on real property in Maryland and carries interest at a variable rate per annum equal to the Index plus 2.25%. The debt is repayable in 59 monthly installments and a final balloon payment due on September 1, 2028, which is estimated at $5,937 as of March 31, 2024. In connection with this mortgage, the Company incurred financing costs of $195 and netted $2,903 after the repayment of a prior outstanding mortgage on the property.
The second agreement provides for $1,800 mortgage on real property in Delaware and carries interest at a variable rate per annum equal to the Index plus 2.25%. The debt is repayable in 59 monthly installments and a final balloon payment due on September 1, 2028, which is estimated at $1,710 as of March 31, 2024. In connection with this mortgage, the Company incurred financing costs of $77 and netted $1,723.

Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, operating activities used $6,211 of cash, primarily resulting from a net loss of $34,568, deferred taxes of $834, and other expenses of $92; this was partially offset by depreciation and amortization of $13,964, equity-based compensation expense of $3,182, loss on deconsolidation of subsidiary of $211, debt amortization expense of $1,857, provision for obsolete inventory and other assets of $5,430, change in fair value of derivative liability of $2,347, and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2,292. The net change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable of $1,012, other assets of $129, increase in accounts payable of $7,351, and income tax payable of $8,898; this was offset by an increase in inventory of $5,297, prepaid and other expenses of $823, a decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $7,391, and other long-term liabilities of $1,587.

Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, investing activities provided $2,403 of cash mainly due to the proceeds from the sale of the UT business of $2,999 and proceeds from sale of license of $329. This was partially offset by purchases of property and equipment of $965.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, investing activities used $2,552 of cash pursuant to purchases of property and equipment of $5,724. This was partially offset by proceeds from the deconsolidation of the Company's Missouri entity of $3,040 and cash received from deposits of $132.


Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, financing activities provided $12,517 of cash, mainly due to proceeds from issuance of convertible debt of $15,600. This was partially offset by payment of lease liabilities of $1,762, payment of debt issuance costs of $802, repayment of sellers note of $375, and repayment of mortgage notes of $144.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, financing activities used $2,037 of cash, mainly due to the payment of lease liabilities of $1,588 and repayment of a seller's note of $375.

Effects of Inflation

Rising inflation rates have had a substantial impact on our financial performance to date and may have an impact on our financial performance in the future as our ability to pass on an increase in costs is not entirely within our control.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the future that affect assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

Judgements estimates and assumptions with the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are described below.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, deposits and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, current taxes payable and other current liabilities like interest payable and payroll liabilities, derivative liability, debt and lease liabilities. The fair values of cash and restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, deposits, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities like interest payable and payroll liabilities, short-term debt and lease liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term to maturity or because of the market rate of interest used on initial recognition. The Cannabist Company classifies its derivative liability as fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL).

Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs to fair value measurements. The three levels of fair value contained within the hierarchy are:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Our assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include investments, assets and liabilities held for sale, long-lived assets and indefinite-lived intangible assets. We review the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually, for indefinite-lived intangible assets. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the asset be recorded at its fair value. The resulting fair value measurements of the assets are considered Level 3 measurements.

Financial Risk Management

We are exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. Our risk exposures and the impact on our financial instruments is summarized below:

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of a potential loss to us if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The maximum credit exposure at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, is the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, subscription receivable, accounts receivable and notes receivable. We do not have significant credit risk with respect to our customers. All cash deposits are with regulated U.S. financial institutions.

We provide credit to our customers in the normal course of business and have established credit evaluation and monitoring processes to mitigate credit risk but have limited risk as the majority of our sales are transacted with cash. Through our Cannabist Company National Credit program, we provide credit to customers in certain markets in which we operate.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations associated with financial liabilities. We manage liquidity risk through the management of our capital structure. Our approach to managing liquidity is to estimate cash requirements from operations, capital expenditures and investments and ensure that we have sufficient liquidity to fund our ongoing operations and to settle obligations and liabilities when due.

To date, we have incurred significant cumulative net losses and we have not generated positive cash flows from our operations. We have therefore depended on financing from sale of our equity and from debt financing to fund our operations. Overall, we do not expect the

23


 

net cash contribution from our operations and investments to be positive in the near term, and we therefore expect to rely on financing from equity or debt.

Market Risk

In addition to business opportunities and challenges applicable to any business operating in a fast-growing environment, our business operates in a highly regulated and multi-jurisdictional industry, which is subject to potentially significant changes outside of our control as individual states as well as the U.S. federal government may impose restrictions on our ability to grow our business profitably or enact new laws and regulations that open up new markets.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of our financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Our cash deposits bear interest at market rates.

Currency Risk

Our operating results and financial position are reported in thousands of U.S. dollars. We may enter into financial transactions denominated in other currencies, which would result in your operations and financial position becoming subject to currency transaction and translation risks.

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, we had no hedging agreements in place with respect to foreign exchange rates. We have not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible currency risks at this time.

Price Risk

Price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity or market prices. We are subject to the risk of price variability pursuant to our products due to competitive or regulatory pressures.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no significant material changes to the market risks as disclosed in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K. See also Financial Risk Management in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that it is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

On May 6, 2024, the Company resolved a lawsuit in Maryland state court, as previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 relating to the Company’s acquisition of Green Leaf Medical (the “Green Leaf Transaction”), a privately held, multi-state operator. As a part of that resolution, and in conjunction with the exchange of mutual releases of all claims relating to the Green Leaf Transaction, the Company will issue 4,848,019 common shares to the former Green Leaf shareholders. The common shares will be issued pursuant to Rule 506(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company will be relying on Rule 506(b) because the issuances are not being made by general solicitation or advertising and the issuances are only being made to accredited investors.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

As of the date of this filing, except as noted below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, 2025 Convertible Notes of any denomination may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in any other authorized denomination or denominations.

Any part, being US$1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, of the principal of this 2025 Convertible Note, provided that the principal amount of this 2025 Convertible Note is in a denomination in excess of US$1,000, is convertible, at the option of the holder hereof, upon surrender of this 2025 Convertible Note at the principal office of the Trustee in Vancouver, British Columbia, at any time prior to the close of business on the date which falls 10 days prior to the Maturity Date, into Common Shares (without adjustment for interest accrued hereon or for dividends or distributions on Common Shares issuable upon conversion) at a conversion price per Common Share equal to US$6.49 payable on the Business Day prior to the date of conversion (the “Conversion Price”), adjusted downwards for any cash dividends paid to holders of the common shares of the Issuer (the “Common Shares”), all subject to the terms and conditions and in the manner set forth herein.

The Indenture makes provision for the adjustment of the Conversion Price in the events therein specified. No fractional Common Shares will be issued on any conversion and holders will receive a cash payment in satisfaction of any fractional interest.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Issuer, the Issuer is required to make an offer, at the option of each Holder, to purchase all of the 2025 Convertible Notes at a cash price equal to 101% principal amount of such 2025 Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

The indebtedness evidenced by this 2025 Convertible Note, and by all other 2025 Convertible Notes now or hereafter certified and delivered under the Indenture, is a direct secured obligation of the Issuer.

The principal hereof may become or be declared due and payable before the stated maturity in the events, in the manner, with the effect and at the times provided in the Indenture.

The 2025 Convertible Notes and Common Shares issuable upon conversion hereof have not and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any state of the United States. The 2025 Convertible Notes and the Common Shares may only be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred to

The Indenture contains provisions making binding upon all holders of 2025 Convertible Notes outstanding thereunder resolutions passed at meetings of such holders held in accordance with such provisions and instruments signed by the holders of a specified majority of 2025 Convertible Notes outstanding, which resolutions or instruments may have the effect of amending the terms of this 2025 Convertible Note or the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions disclaiming any personal liability on the part of holders of Common Shares, officers, directors and employees of the Issuer in respect of any obligation or claim arising out of the Indenture or this 2025 Convertible Note.

This 2025 Convertible Note may only be transferred, upon compliance with the conditions prescribed in the Indenture, in one of the registers to be kept at the principal office of the Trustee in the City of Vancouver and in such other place or places and/or by such other registrars (if any) as the Issuer with the approval of the Trustee may designate. No transfer of this 2025 Convertible Note shall be valid unless made on the register by the registered holder hereof or his executors or administrators or other legal representatives, or his or their attorney duly appointed by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee or other registrar, and upon compliance with such reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other registrar may prescribe and upon surrender of this 2025 Convertible Note for cancellation. Thereupon a new 2025 Convertible Note or 2025 Convertible Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the transferee in exchange hereof.

This 2025 Convertible Note shall not become obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been certified by the Trustee under the Indenture.

Capitalized words or expressions used in this 2025 Convertible Note shall, unless otherwise defined herein, have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, statement of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current year ending December 31, 2024. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the instructions to Form 10-Q.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in United States dollars except as otherwise indicated. All references to C$, CAD$ and CDN$ are to Canadian dollars.

Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, filed with the SEC, on March 13, 2024. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

2026 Notes

 

On February 3, 2022, the Company closed a private placement (the “February 2022 Private Placement”) of $185,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.50% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $153,250. The 2026 Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 100.0% of face value. The 2026 Notes accrue interest in arrears which is payable semi-annually and mature on February 3, 2026, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Company may redeem the 2026 Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after February 3, 2024, as more particularly described

in the fourth supplemental trust indenture governing the 2026 Notes. In connection with the offering of the 2026 Notes, the Company exchanged $31,750 of the Company’s existing 13.0% senior secured first-lien notes (the “13.0% Term Debt”), pursuant to private agreements in accordance with the trust indenture, for an equivalent amount of 2026 Notes plus accrued but unpaid interest and any negotiated premium thereon.

 

The premium and paid interest were paid out of funds raised from the February 2022 Private Placement. The total unamortized debt and debt issuance costs of $2,153, related to the modified portion of the 13.0% Term Debt, will be amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest method. The Company incurred $7,189 in creditor fees in connection with the modified 13.0% Term Debt and 2026 Notes and $301 in third-party legal fees related to 2026 Notes which were capitalized and will be amortized over the term of the 2026 Notes using the effective interest rate method.

 

2024 Notes

 

As further described in Note 4 under the sub-heading “Term debt” of the Financial Statements incorporated by reference in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, on October 23, 2023, the Company retired $25 million of its 13% Notes due May 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) through a proportional redemption process.

 

The 2024 Notes require interest-only payments through May 14, 2024, at a rate of 13.0% per annum, payable semi-annually on May 31 and November 30, which commenced on November 30, 2020. The 2024 Notes are due in full on May 14, 2024. The Company incurred financing costs of $3,373 in connection with the issuance of these 2024 Notes. The 2024 Notes contain customary terms and conditions, representations and warranties, and events of default.

 

2027 Convertible Notes

 

On March 19, 2024, the Company closed a private placement (the “March 2024 Private Placement”) of $25,750 aggregate principal amount of 9.0% senior-secured first-lien notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and received aggregate gross proceeds of $15,600. The 2027 Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and were issued at 80.0% of face value. The 2027 Notes accrue interest in arrears which is payable semi-annually and mature on March 19, 2027. In connection with the offering of the 2027 Notes, the Company exchanged $5,000 of the Company’s existing 6.0% 2025 Convertible Notes.

 

The principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2027 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this conversion feature within the 2027 Convertible Notes, the Company is unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $2,632 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount and debt issuance costs of $5,952, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2027 Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt premium and debt issuance costs is amortized over the term of the 2027 Notes.

 

2025 Convertible Notes

 

On June 29, 2021, the Company completed an offering of 6.0% Secured Convertible Notes Due 2025 (“2025 Convertible Notes”) for an aggregate principal amount of $74,500. The 2025 Convertible Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company and will accrue interest payable semiannually in arrears and mature on June 29, 2025, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2025 Convertible Notes shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, from the date of issuance until the date that is 10 days prior to their maturity date into Common Shares of the Company at a conversion price equal to $6.49 payable on the business day prior to the date of conversion, adjusted downwards for any cash dividends paid to holders of Common Shares and other customary adjustments. The Company may redeem the 2025 Convertible Notes at par, in whole or in part, on or after June 29, 2023, if the volume weighted average price of the Common Shares trading on the Canadian Stock Exchange or Cboe Canada for 15 of the 30 trading days immediately preceding the day on which the Company exercises its redemption right, exceeds 120.0% of the conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Notes at a Redemption Price equal to 100.0% of the principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the Redemption Date.

 

The 2025 Convertible Notes require interest-only payments until June 29, 2025, at a rate of 6.0% per annum, payable semi-annually in June and December and commencing in December 2021. The 2025 Convertible Notes are due in full on June 29, 2025. The Company incurred financing costs of $3,190 in connection with the 2025 Convertible Notes. The principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes and the conversion price are denominated in U.S. dollars. As the functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars, the amount of the liability to be settled depends on the applicable foreign exchange rate on the date of settlement. The 2025 Convertible Notes therefore represent an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of liability. Due to this

conversion feature within the 2025 Convertible Notes, the Company is unable to obtain an exception from derivative accounting. Accordingly, this conversion feature was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and measured at fair value of $15,099 on the date of issuance of debt with a corresponding debt discount, reflected as a reduction to the carrying value of the 2025 Convertible Notes. The Company fair values the derivative liability at each balance sheet date. Changes in fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The debt discount is amortized over the term of the 2025 Convertible Notes.

 

 

January 2024 Debt Exchange

On January 22, 2024, the Company entered into the Exchange Agreement with certain Holders of the Company’s 6.0% senior secured 2025 Convertible Notes, pursuant to which the Company agreed to the Repurchase of up to $25 million principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Notes in exchange for Common Shares (the “January 2024 Debt Exchange”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holders shall:

 

by January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.41 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice;
provided that the five-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on the Exchange is greater than C$0.47 as of the close of trading at 4:01pm on January 31, 2024, transfer $5 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at the Initial Exchange Price on or prior to February 29, 2024; and
provided that the February Exchange is completed and the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe is greater than C$0.87 for 5 consecutive trading days, provided that, the trading volume of the Common Shares on Cboe was equal to or greater than 600,000 Common Shares on the applicable trading dates, from the period commencing on January 1, 2024 and ending on June 30, 2024, transfer in three separate equal tranches, an aggregate of $15 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes in consideration of Common Shares issued at a price per Common Share equal to the greater of C$0.57 per Common Share and the 12.5% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average price of the Common Shares on Cboe prior to receipt of a Transfer notice, in each case, subject to adjustment in certain instances, on or prior to June 30, 2024.

In the event the conditions are fulfilled and the Holders fail to Transfer their 2025 Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require the Holders to Transfer some or all of the portion of the $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes still held by the Holders. Assuming all of the conditions are fulfilled, and the entire $25 million principal amount of 2025 Convertible Notes are Transferred for Common Shares issued at the minimum prices set out in the Exchange Agreement, a maximum of 68,564,698 Common Shares would be issued in connection with the Repurchase. Through March 31, 2024, $10 million of the potential $25 million exchange has been completed.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors and senior management that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited.

Additionally, the Company may be contingently liable with respect to other claims incidental to the ordinary course of its operations. In the opinion of management, and based on management’s consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate outcome of such other matters will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company. Accordingly, no provision has been made in these consolidated financial statements for losses, if any, which might result from the ultimate disposition of these matters should they arise.

The carrying amounts of cash and restricted cash, accounts receivable, and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities, current portion of long-term debt and lease liability as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these items and are not included in the table above. The Company’s other long-term liabilities and long-term debt approximate fair value due to the market rate of interest used on initial recognition.

In addition to the disclosures for assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, companies are required to disclose the estimated fair values of all financial instruments, even if they are not presented at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair values of financial instruments are estimates based upon market conditions and perceived risks as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. These estimates require management's judgment and may not be indicative of the future fair values of the assets and liabilities.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Preparation

Basis of preparation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, statement of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current year ending December 31, 2024. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the instructions to Form 10-Q.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in United States dollars except as otherwise indicated. All references to C$, CAD$ and CDN$ are to Canadian dollars.
