Definition and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to reporting the financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), the Company reports certain financial results that differ from what is reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by management do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company believes that certain investors and analysts use these measures to measure a company's ability to meet other payment obligations or as a common measurement to value companies in the cannabis industry, and the Company calculates Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin as Gross Profit and gross profit margin adjusted for certain material non-cash items including the one-time relief of fair value upon acquisition, non-cash write downs of inventory, sales returns and write downs of inventory as a result of a vape recall in Pennsylvania, and other one-time adjustments to gross profit that management does not believe are reflective of ongoing operations. We calculate EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA Margin from continuing operations as net loss adjusted for certain material non-cash items such as inventory write downs outside of the normal course of operations, fees related to the modification of debt, impairment charges taken on goodwill, intangible assets and property and equipment, the gain or loss recognized on the revaluation of our contingent consideration liabilities, gains resulting from the extinguishment of debt, loan modification fees related to the modification of debt, the gain recognized on the extinguishment of debt, the gain or loss on fair value of warrants and purchase option derivative assets, relief of fair value upon acquisition and certain other adjustments management believes are not reflective of the ongoing operations and performance. Furthermore, the Company defines Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, adjusted for certain cash items such as capital expenditures for property and equipment. Such information is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes this definition is a useful measure to assess the performance of the Company as it provides more meaningful operating results by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of the Company's underlying business performance and other one-time or non-recurring expenses.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are contained in the Appendix to this presentation. The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA Margin with the most directly comparable GAAP measure in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company is unable to calculate the most directly comparable GAAP measure, without unreasonable efforts due to the variability and low visibility with respect to certain costs such as stock-based compensation, certain fair value measurements, tax items, and others that may arise during the period that are not ascertainable.

Third Party Information

Certain information contained in this presentation and statements made orally during the related earnings webcast relate to or are based on studies, publications, surveys and other data obtained from third-party sources and the Company's own internal estimates and research. While the Company believes these third-party studies, publications, surveys and other data to be reliable as of the date of this presentation, the Company has not independently verified, and makes no representations as to the adequacy, fairness, accuracy or completeness of, any information obtained from third-party sources. In addition, no independent source has evaluated the reasonableness or accuracy of the Company's internal estimates or research and no reliance should be made on any information or statements made in this presentation relating to or based on such internal estimates and research.

Improving our Balance Sheet

  • Actively in the process of exploring additional opportunities to improve balance sheet and well underway in a competitive process to refinance a substantial portion of debt.
  • There is significant interest in this process from both existing and potential new lenders.
  • With recent news regarding the DEA's decision to reschedule, additional potential lenders have emerged and existing lenders have become more constructive on the sector.

* Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to disclaimer on slide 3 and 4 and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures in the appendix.

  • Similar to successful expansion into Maryland, sights are now set on entering Ohio prior to commencement of Adult-Use.
  • Ohio has population of 12 million, compared to 9 million in NJ and 6 million in MD.
  • Employing AU playbook in Ohio could result in even larger business relative to other top performing TerrAscend markets.
  • Plan to leverage Michigan corporate infrastructure in a similar manner to how Maryland integrated into the northeast infrastructure in 2023. Would make MI and OH more profitable combined than on a standalone basis.

Multiple Potential Paths to Cannabis Reform

Recent news that the DEA is moving to re-schedule cannabis to Schedule

  1. will result in the elimination of punitive tax treatment and will likely enable greater access to capital at a lower cost, resulting in leveling the playing field for operators in the industry.

Federal judge in Massachusetts recently agreed to hear the David Boies lawsuit seeking equal treatment for cannabis businesses.
