1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Acreage Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “Pubco” or “Acreage”) is a vertically integrated, multi-state operator in the United States (“U.S.”) cannabis industry and has contractual relationships with cannabis cultivation facilities, dispensaries and other cannabis-related companies in the U.S. The Company’s operations include (i) cultivating and processing cannabis plants, (ii) manufacturing branded consumer products, (iii) distributing cannabis flower and manufactured products, and (iv) retailing dosable cannabis products to consumers. The Company’s products appeal to medical and adult recreational use customers through brand strategies intended to build trust and loyalty. The Company’s Class E subordinate voting shares (“Fixed Shares”) and Class D subordinate voting shares (“Floating Shares”) are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbols “ACRG.A.U” and “ACRG.B.U”, respectively, quoted on the OTCQX under the symbols “ACRHF” and “ACRDF”, respectively, and traded on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbols “0VZ1” and “0VZ2”, respectively.

High Street Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company doing business as “Acreage Holdings” (“HSCP”), was formed on April 29, 2014. The Company became the indirect parent of HSCP on November 14, 2018 in connection with the reverse takeover (“RTO”) transaction described below.

The Company’s principal place of business is located at 366 Madison Ave, 14th floor, New York, New York in the U.S. The Company’s registered and records office address is Suite 2800, Park Place, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada.

The RTO transaction

On September 21, 2018, the Company, HSCP, HSCP Merger Corp. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), Acreage Finco B.C. Ltd. (a special purpose corporation) (“Finco”), Acreage Holdings America, Inc. (“USCo”) and Acreage Holdings WC, Inc. (“USCo2”) entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) whereby the parties thereto agreed to combine their respective businesses, which would result in the RTO of Pubco by the security holders of HSCP, which was deemed to be the accounting acquiror. On November 14, 2018, the parties to the Business Combination Agreement completed the RTO.

Canopy Growth Corporation transaction

On June 27, 2019, the Company and Canopy Growth Corporation (“Canopy Growth” or “CGC”) implemented the Prior Plan of Arrangement (as defined in Note 13) contemplated by the Original Arrangement Agreement (as defined in Note 13). Pursuant to the Prior Plan of Arrangement, Canopy Growth was granted an option to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company in exchange for the payment of 0.5818 of a common share in the capital of Canopy Growth for each Class A subordinate voting share (each, a “SVS”) held (with the Class B proportionate voting shares (the “PVS”) and Class C multiple voting shares (the “MVS”) being automatically converted to SVS immediately prior to consummation of the Acquisition (as defined in Note 13), which original exchange ratio was subject to adjustment in accordance with the Original Arrangement Agreement. Canopy Growth was required to exercise the option upon a change in federal laws in the United States to permit the general cultivation, distribution and possession of marijuana (as defined in the relevant legislation) or to remove the regulation of such activities from the federal laws of the United States (the “Triggering Event”) and, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set out in the Original Arrangement Agreement, Canopy Growth was required to acquire all of the issued and outstanding SVS (following the mandatory conversion of the PVS and MVS into SVS).

On June 24, 2020, Canopy Growth and the Company entered into an agreement to, among other things, amend the terms of the Original Arrangement Agreement and the terms of the Prior Plan of Arrangement (the “Amended Arrangement”). On September 16, 2020, the Company’s shareholders voted in favor of a special resolution authorizing and approving the terms of, among other things, the Amended Arrangement. Subsequently, on September 18, 2020, the Company obtained a final order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving the Amended Arrangement, and on September 23, 2020 the Company and Canopy Growth entered into the Amending Agreement (as defined in Note 13) and implemented the Amended Arrangement. Pursuant to the Amended Arrangement, the Company’s articles were amended to create the Fixed Shares, the Floating Shares and the Class F multiple voting shares (the “Fixed Multiple Shares”), and each outstanding SVS was exchanged for 0.7 of a Fixed Share and 0.3 of a Floating Share, each outstanding PVS was exchanged for 28 Fixed Shares and 12 Floating Shares; and each outstanding MVS was exchanged for 0.7 of a Fixed Multiple Share and 0.3 of a Floating Share. Refer to Note 13 for further discussion.

COVID-19

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) emerged in Wuhan, China. Since then, it has spread to other countries and infections have been reported around the world. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic.

In response to the outbreak, governmental authorities in the United States, Canada and internationally have introduced various recommendations and measures to try to limit the pandemic, including travel restrictions, border closures, non-essential business closures, quarantines, self-isolations, shelters-in-place and social distancing. The COVID-19 outbreak and the response of governmental authorities to try to limit it are having a significant impact on the private sector and individuals, including unprecedented business, employment and economic disruptions. Management has been closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19, with a focus on the health and safety of the Company’s employees, business continuity and supporting the communities where the Company operates. The Company implemented various measures at the height of the pandemic to reduce the spread of the virus, such as implementing social distancing measures at its facilities. Most of these measures are no longer considered to be necessary or required; however, the Company reserves the right to implement similar precautionary measures in the future as circumstances change.

Despite some impact to our day-to-day operations at select locations from time-to-time, COVID-19 has had a minimal impact overall on the Company’s performance.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, or any other period.

As reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit as of June 30, 2022, as well as a net loss and negative cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements.

However, management believes that substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its obligations for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements were issued has been alleviated due to, but not limited to, (i) access to future capital commitments, (ii) continued sales growth from the Company’s consolidated operations, (iii) latitude as to the timing and amount of certain operating expenses as well as capital expenditures, (iv) restructuring plans that have already been put in place to improve the Company’s profitability, (v) the AFC-VRT credit facilities (refer to Note 10 for further discussion), and (vi) the anticipated Non-Core Divestiture (refer to Notes 3 and 17 for further discussion), as well as access to the U.S. public equity markets.

If the Company is unable to raise additional capital whenever necessary, it may be forced to decelerate or curtail its footprint build-out or other operational activities until such time as additional capital becomes available. Such limitation of the Company’s activities would allow it to slow its rate of spending and extend its use of cash until additional capital is raised. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. Management also cannot provide any assurance as to unforeseen circumstances that could occur at any time within the next twelve months or thereafter which could increase the Company’s need to raise additional capital on an immediate basis.

These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, dated March 11, 2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

Use of estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the dates presented and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, assumptions relating to equity-based compensation expense, estimated useful lives for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets and the assessment of potential charges on goodwill, intangible assets and investments in equity and notes receivable.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

Functional and presentation currency

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes are expressed in U.S. dollars. Financial metrics are presented in thousands. Other metrics, such as shares outstanding, are presented in thousands unless otherwise noted.

Basis of consolidation

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Acreage, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where the Company is considered the primary beneficiary, if any, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Investments in business entities in which Acreage lacks control but is able to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. The Company’s proportionate share of net income or loss of the entity is recorded in Income (loss) from investments, net in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

VIEs

In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company assesses whether it has the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the VIE and have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. There were no material consolidated VIEs as of June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Non-controlling interests (“NCI”)

Non-controlling interests represent ownership interests in consolidated subsidiaries by parties that are not shareholders of Pubco. They are shown as a component of Total equity in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, and the share of loss attributable to non-controlling interests is shown as a component of Net loss in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in the parent company’s ownership that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represents funds contractually held for specific purposes and, as such, not available for general corporate purposes.

ACREAGE HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except per share data)

Cash and restricted cash, as presented on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, consists of $29,235 and $95 as of June 30, 2022, respectively, and $36,736 and $1,098 as of June 30, 2021, respectively.

Accounts receivable valuations and reclassifications

Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. The allowance against gross trade receivables reflects the best estimate of probable losses inherent in the receivables portfolio determined on the basis of historical experience, specific allowances for known troubled accounts and other currently available information. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $318 and $445, respectively.

Net loss per share

Net loss per share represents the net loss attributable to shareholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period on an as converted basis. Basic and diluted loss per share are the same as of June 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020, as the issuance of shares upon conversion, exercise or vesting of outstanding units would be anti-dilutive in each period. There were 37,472 and 43,247 anti-dilutive shares outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Change In Presentation

Note that certain items presented on the six months ended June 30, 2021 Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows includes a change in presentation to conform to the current year presentation. There was no impact to our Consolidated Financial Statements as a result of this reclassification.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

As of January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12). ASU 2019-12 attempts to simplify aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2020-01 - Investments-Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The new standard clarifies the interaction of accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method. The new standard also clarifies the accounting for measuring certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The adoption of ASU 2020-01 did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2021-04 - Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments (Topic 470-50), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which clarifies existing guidance for freestanding written call options which are equity classified and remain so after they are modified or exchanged in order to reduce diversity in practice. The standard applies prospectively to modifications or exchanges that occur after it is adopted. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which was subsequently revised by ASU 2018-19 and ASU 2020-02. The ASU introduces a new model for assessing impairment on most financial assets. Entities will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model, which will replace the current incurred loss model, which will result in earlier recognition of allowance for losses. The ASU will be effective for the Company’s first interim period of fiscal 2023. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this ASU on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 - Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The new standard improves the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency. The new standard requires an entity to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU will be effective for the Company’s first interim period of fiscal 2024. The standard should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company does not anticipate a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

CWG

On April 30, 2021, a subsidiary of the Company acquired 100% of CWG Botanicals, Inc. (“CWG”), an adult-use cannabis cultivation and processing operations in the state of California.

The consideration paid for CWG consisted of the settlement of a pre-existing relationship, which included a line of credit of $9,321 and the related interest receivable of $1,559, which were both previously recorded in Notes receivable, non-current on the Statements of Financial Position.

Greenleaf

On October 1, 2021, a subsidiary of the Company acquired of 100% of Greenleaf Apothecaries, Greenleaf Gardens, and Greenleaf Therapeutics, collectively known as “Greenleaf.” Greenleaf consists of cannabis cultivation, processing, and dispensary operations in the state of Ohio.

ACREAGE HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except per share data)

On July 2, 2018, the Company entered into purchase agreements for Greenleaf for the total purchase price of approximately $8,245 in cash, $6,096 in seller notes payable and 1.2 million shares of HSCP with an average fair value of $7.73 per share, which are convertible into shares of the Company. In addition, the Company extended a $31,200 line of credit and issued $12,500 in promissory notes to the Greenleaf entities. The consideration paid was made in exchange for: (a) the rights to acquire the Greenleaf entities upon state regulatory approval and; (b) master services agreements (“MSAs”) to operate the entities until such approval was granted and ownership interests were transferred. The purchase consideration paid represents the fair value of the intangible asset related to the MSA that was recorded on the Company’s Statement of Financial Position at the time of the transaction. The intangible asset was amortized over the life of the MSAs.

Upon closing, the Company repaid the remaining $3,300 worth of sellers notes payable and accrued interest and assumed $42,043 in notes and interest receivable owed to the Company by Greenleaf that was eliminated upon consolidation. Total consideration for the asset transfer transaction was $44,996, representing the sum of the $2,953 carrying value of intangible assets from the 2018 transaction and the liabilities assumed. As the Company owns 100% of Greenleaf, the subsidiary is accounted for on a consolidated basis as of the closing date.

The purchase price allocation is based upon preliminary valuations and estimates and assumptions which are subject to change within the measurement period, generally one year from the acquisition date. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to the valuation of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the residual goodwill resulting from the transaction.

NCCRE

On March 19, 2021, a subsidiary of the Company, HSC Solutions, LLC entered into an assignment of membership agreement to acquire the remaining non-controlling interests of its subsidiary, NCC Real Estate, LLC (“NCCRE”), based primarily on the fair value of property held by NCCRE estimated in the amount of $850.

Additionally, the Company subsequently repaid the outstanding principal balance of the NCCRE secured loan.

Divestitures

In February 2021, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a definitive agreement and management services agreement to sell an indoor cultivation facility in Medford, Oregon ("Medford") and a retail dispensary in Powell, Oregon ("Powell"), for total consideration of $3,000.

This resulted in a gain on sale of $11,682 recorded in Other income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company subsequently sold the promissory notes and recognized a net loss of $2,000 as discussed in Note 6.

The intangible assets balance as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 excludes intangible assets reclassified to assets held-for-sale (refer to Note 3 for further discussion). The average useful life of finite-lived intangible assets ranges from 0.5 to 1.8 years, with 0.5 and 1.8 years being the average useful life for customer relationships and management contracts, respectively.

Impairment of intangible assets

The Company assessed whether any events or changes in circumstances ("triggering events") indicated finite-lived intangible assets to be held-and-used would not be recovered. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not identify any triggering events. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company identified a triggering event for its management contract owned by Prime Alternative Treatment Center Consulting, LLC ("PATCC"). The Company evaluated the recoverability of the asset by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. The carrying value was determined to not be recoverable and the Company proceeded to test the asset for impairment. The Company recognized an impairment charge of $818 due to changes in expected cash flows pursuant to a revised consulting services agreement. These charges are recognized in Impairments, net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The impairment resulted in the recognition of a tax provision benefit and an associated reversal of deferred tax liabilities of $205 during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company de-recognized deferred tax liabilities related to indefinite-lived intangible assets held by Acreage Florida of $6,044 in Other income (loss), net on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In accordance with the terms of the debenture, the funds cannot be used, directly or indirectly, in connection with or for any cannabis or cannabis-related operations in the United States, unless and until such operations comply with all applicable laws of the United States.

Pursuant to the Amended Plan of Arrangement, upon the occurrence or waiver (at the discretion of Canopy Growth) of the Triggering Event (the “Triggering Event Date”), Canopy Growth will, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions set out in the Amending Agreement: (i) acquire all of the issued and outstanding Fixed Shares (following the mandatory conversion of the Fixed Multiple Shares into Fixed Shares) on the basis of 0.3048 of a common share of Canopy Growth (each whole common share, a “Canopy Growth Share”) for each Fixed Share held (the “Fixed Exchange Ratio”) at the time of the acquisition of the Fixed Shares (the “Acquisition Time”), subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Amended Plan of Arrangement (the “Canopy Call Option”) and (ii) have the right (but not the obligation) (the “Floating Call Option”), exercisable for a period of 30 days following the Triggering Event Date to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Floating Shares at a price to be determined based upon the 30 day volume-weighted average trading price of the Floating Shares, subject to a minimum price of $6.41, as may be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Amended Plan of Arrangement, to be payable, at the option of Canopy Growth, in cash, Canopy Growth Shares, or a combination thereof. If any portion is paid in Canopy Growth Shares, the number of Canopy Growth Shares to be exchanged for each Floating Share shall be determined on the basis of a 30 day volume-weighted average calculation using the Floating Shares (the “Floating Ratio”). The closing of the acquisition of the Floating Shares pursuant to the Floating Call Option, if exercised, will take place concurrently with the closing of the acquisition of the Fixed Shares pursuant to the Canopy Call Option, if exercised. The Canopy Call Option and the Floating Call Option will expire 10 years from the Amendment Time.

At the Acquisition Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Amended Plan of Arrangement, each Fixed Share Replacement Security will be exchanged for a replacement Security from Canopy Growth equal to: (i) the number of Fixed Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Fixed Share Replacement Security immediately prior to the Acquisition Time, multiplied by (ii) the Fixed Exchange Ratio in effect immediately prior to the Acquisition Time (provided that if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Canopy Growth Share, then the number of Canopy Growth Shares to be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number).

In the event that the Floating Call Option is exercised and Canopy Growth acquires the Floating Shares at the Acquisition Time, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Amended Plan of Arrangement, each Floating Share Replacement Security will be exchanged for a replacement Security from Canopy Growth equal to: (i) the number of Floating Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Floating Share Replacement Security immediately prior to the Acquisition Time, multiplied by (ii) the Floating Ratio (if the foregoing would result in the issuance of a fraction of a Canopy Growth Share, then the number of Canopy Growth Shares to be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number). In the event that the Floating Call Option is exercised and Canopy Growth acquires the Floating Shares at the Acquisition Time, Acreage will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canopy Growth.

The Amended Plan of Arrangement provides for, among other things, Amendments to the definition of Purchaser Approved Share Threshold (as defined therein) to change the number of shares of Acreage available to be issued by Acreage without an adjustment in the Fixed Exchange Ratio such that Acreage may issue a maximum of 32,700 shares. Furthermore, Acreage generally may not issue any equity securities without Canopy Growth’s prior consent. Additionally, the Amended Plan of Arrangement allows for various Canopy Growth rights that extend beyond the Acquisition Date, including, among others, (i) rights to nominate a majority of Acreage’s Board of Directors following the Acquisition Time; (ii) restrictive covenants in respect of the business conduct in favor of Canopy Growth; (iii) termination of non-competition and exclusivity rights granted to Acreage by Canopy Growth in the event that Acreage does not meet certain specified financial targets; (iv) implementation of further restrictions on Acreage’s ability to operate its business in the event that Acreage does not meet certain specified financial targets; and (v) termination of the Amended Plan of Arrangement in the event that Acreage does not meet certain specified financial targets in the trailing 12 month period. Each of the financial targets referred to above is specified in the Amending Agreement and related to the performance of Acreage relative to a business plan for Acreage for each fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2029 set forth in the Proposal Agreement.

Further, the Amended Plan of Arrangement imposes restrictions on Acreage entering into any contracts in respect of Company Debt if: (i) such contract would be materially inconsistent with market standards for companies operating in the United States cannabis industry; (ii) such contract prohibits a prepayment of the principal amount of such Company Debt; and (iii) such contract would provide for interest payments to be paid through the issuance of securities as opposed to cash, among other restrictions. The Amended Plan of Arrangement also provides for the following: (i) certain financial reporting obligations to Canopy Growth; (ii) certain specified criteria related to any new directors or officers of Acreage, and (iii) a limit to Acreage’s operations to the Identified States (as defined therein).

Debenture

In connection with the implementation of the Amended Arrangement, pursuant to a secured debenture dated September 23, 2020 (the “Debenture”) issued by Universal Hemp, LLC, an affiliate of Acreage that operates solely in the hemp industry in full compliance with all applicable laws (the “Borrower”), to 11065220 Canada Inc., an affiliate of Canopy Growth (the “Lender”), the Lender agreed to provide a loan of up to $100,000 (the “Loan”), $50,000 of which was advanced on the Amendment Date (the “Initial Advance”), and $50,000 of the Loan will be advanced in the event that the following conditions, among others, are satisfied: (a) the Borrower’s EBITDA (as defined in the Debenture) for any 90 day period is greater than or equal to 2.0 times the interest costs associated with the Initial Advance; and (b) the Borrower’s business plan for the 12 months following the applicable 90 day period supports an Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Debenture) of at least 2.00:1.

The principal amount of the Loan will bear interest from the date of advance, compounded annually, and be payable on each anniversary of the date of the Debenture in cash in U.S. dollars at a rate of 6.1% per annum. The Loan will mature 10 years from the date of the Initial Advance.

The Loan must be used exclusively for U.S. hemp-related operations and on the express condition that such amount will not be used, directly or indirectly, in connection with or for the operation or benefit of any of the Borrower’s affiliates other than subsidiaries of the Borrower exclusively engaged in U.S. hemp-related operations and not directly or indirectly, towards the operation or funding of any activities that are not permissible under applicable law. The Loan proceeds must be segregated in a distinct bank account and detailed records of debits to such distinct bank account will be maintained by the Borrower.

No payment due and payable to the Lender by the Borrower pursuant to the Debenture may be made using funds directly or indirectly derived from any cannabis or cannabis-related operations in the United States, unless and until the Triggering Event Date.

The Debenture includes usual and typical events of default for a financing of this nature, including, without limitation, if: (i) Acreage is in breach or default of any representation or warranty in any material respect pursuant to the Arrangement

Agreement; (ii) the Non-Core Divestitures are not completed within 18 months from the Amendment Date; and (iii) Acreage fails to perform or comply with any covenant or obligation in the Arrangement Agreement which is not remedied within 30 days after written notice is given to the Borrower by the Lender.

Surety bonds

The Company has indemnification obligations with respect to surety bonds primarily used as security against non-performance in the amount of $5,000 as of June 30, 2022, for which no liabilities are recorded on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

The Company is subject to other capital commitments and similar obligations. As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, such amounts were not material.

CanWell Settlement

In November 2020, the Company entered into a final confidential settlement agreement with CanWell, LLC for certain outstanding proceedings. As part of that agreement, the Company accrued for $7,750 in Legal settlements, net on the Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. In connection with this settlement agreement, the Company issued a promissory note in the amount of $7,750 to CanWell, which is non-interest bearing and is payable in periodic payments through December 31, 2024. Through June 30, 2022, the Company has paid $3,792 of the promissory note.

Contingencies

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’s applicable subsidiaries ceasing operations. While management of the Company believes that the Company’s subsidiaries are in compliance with applicable local and state regulations as of June 30, 2022, cannabis regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company’s subsidiaries may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties, or restrictions in the future.

The Company and its subsidiaries may be, from time to time, subject to various administrative, regulatory and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Contingent liabilities associated with legal proceedings are recorded when a liability is probable, and the contingent liability can be reasonably estimated.

New York outstanding litigation

On November 2, 2018, EPMMNY LLC (“EPMMNY”) filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, asserting claims against 16 defendants, including NYCANNA, Impire State Holdings LLC, NY Medicinal Research & Caring, LLC (each, a wholly-owned subsidiary of High Street) and High Street. The Index Number for the action is 655480/2018. EPMMNY alleges that it was wrongfully deprived of a minority equity interest and management role in NYCANNA by its former partner, New Amsterdam Distributors, LLC, which attempted to directly or indirectly sell or transfer EPMMNY’s alleged interest in NYCANNA to other entities in 2016 and 2017, including Impire, NYMRC and High Street.

EPMMNY alleges that it is entitled to the value of its alleged minority interest in NYCANNA or minority ownership in NYCANNA. EPMMNY also alleges that certain defendants misused its alleged intellectual property and/or services, improperly solicited its employees, and aided and abetted or participated in the transfer of equity and/or business opportunities from EPMMNY.

High Street intends to vigorously defend this action, which the Company firmly believes is without merit. High Street is also entitled to full indemnity from the claims asserted against it by EPMMNY pursuant to the purchase agreement pertaining to its acquisition of NYCANNA and personal guarantee by the largest shareholders of the seller. High Street, along with the other defendants filed a motion to dismiss on April 1, 2019. The motion was fully briefed and submitted to the Court as of July 18, 2019, and oral argument was heard on September 6, 2019. The motion remains pending before the Court. Following a hearing held in April 2022, the Court ruled that Plaintiff had the capacity to bring this action on behalf of EPMMNY. The motions to dismiss remain pending on all other grounds.

15. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

The Company prepares its segment reporting on the same basis that its Chief Operating Decision Maker manages the business, and makes operating decisions. The Company operates under one operating segment, which is its only reportable segment: the production and sale of cannabis products. The Company’s measure of segment performance is net income, and derives its revenue primarily from the sale of cannabis products, as well as related management or consulting services which were not material in all periods presented. All of the Company’s operations are located in the United States.

16. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of outstanding shares for the period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted number of outstanding common shares plus the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants, as if they were exercised, and restricted stock units and profits interests, as if they vested and NCI convertible units, as if they converted.

Basic and diluted loss per share is as follows:

Accelerating Growth in Core Markets: Through prior acquisitions and capital expenditures, management believes Acreage is well positioned for future success in several key markets as regulations regarding the use of cannabis continue to evolve. The Company will continue to focus its growth on its core markets where it can take advantage of and expand on the presence already established.

Driving Profitability: The Company's focus on improving operational and financial results has generally resulted in improving profitability. Management continues to diligently control costs, improve operational efficiencies, and accelerate organic growth in its core markets to continue to report improved profitability going forward.

Strengthening the Balance Sheet: Strengthening the balance sheet is key to both providing the Company with the necessary capital to achieve its operational plans and building shareholder confidence. The Company has worked to ensure that sufficient capital is available when needed. Going forward, the Company will monitor the capital markets and utilize opportunities to access additional debt or equity, or both, when it is necessary and advantageous to do so.

Operational and Regulation Overview

The Company believes its operations are in material compliance with all applicable state and local laws, regulations and licensing requirements in the states in which it operates. However, cannabis is illegal under U.S. federal law. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from U.S. cannabis operations. For information about risks related to U.S. cannabis operations, please refer to Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

COVID-19

In response to the outbreak, governmental authorities in the United States, Canada and internationally have introduced various recommendations and measures to try to limit the pandemic, including travel restrictions, border closures, non-essential business closures, quarantines, self-isolations, shelters-in-place and social distancing. The COVID-19 outbreak and the response of governmental authorities to try to limit it are having a significant impact on the private sector and individuals, including unprecedented business, employment and economic disruptions. Management has been closely monitoring the impact of COVID-19, with a focus in the health and safety of our employees, business continuity and supporting our communities. The Company implemented various measures at the height of the pandemic to reduce the spread of the virus, such as implementing social distancing measures at its facilities. Most of these measures are no longer considered to be necessary or required; however, the Company reserves the right to implement similar precautionary measures in the future as circumstances change.

Aside from minimal impact to our day-to-day operations at select locations, COVID-19 has had an immaterial impact overall on our Company’s performance as key performance metrics are trending positively, including, but not limited to, significant improvements to net revenue and net loss as well as positive adjusted EBITDA results.

Revenues, Cost of goods sold and Gross profit

The Company derives its revenues from sales of cannabis and cannabis-infused products through retail dispensary, wholesale and manufacturing and cultivation businesses, as well as from management or consulting fees from entities for whom the Company provides management or consulting services.

Gross profit is revenue less cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold includes costs directly attributable to inventory sold such as direct material, labor, and overhead, including depreciation. Such costs are further affected by various state regulations that limit the sourcing and procurement of cannabis and cannabis-related products, which may create fluctuations in gross profit over comparative periods as the regulatory environment changes.

Three months ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021

Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 grew by $17,134, or 39%, compared with 2021. On a comparative basis, total revenue increased by $16,253 due to the acquisitions of (i) Greenleaf Ohio in October 2021, (ii) CWG in May 2021 and (iii) certain Maine operations and was offset by (i) a decrease of $150 due to the divestiture of Acreage Florida in April 2021 and (ii) the non-recurrence of a bulk wholesale sale transaction of $1,500 in the prior year comparable period. Additionally, total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 for the Company’s operations in Oregon, which are considered non-core and have been sold or are in the process of being sold, decreased by $834 as compared to three months ended June 30, 2021. Excluding these acquisitions and divestitures/closures, the non-recurrence of the bulk wholesale sales transaction and the impact of total revenue declines in the Company’s Oregon operations, total revenue increased by $3,215, or 8%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to fiscal 2021.

Retail revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 grew by $18,289, or 64%, compared with 2021. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures/closures, retail revenue increased by $2,791 or 10% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to fiscal 2021. This organic growth was primarily driven by increased demand and production across various states and was partially offset by retail revenue declines of $834 in non-core states (Oregon). Excluding the impact of revenue declines in the Company’s Oregon dispensaries, retail revenue from comparative stores increased 14%. Overall, increased volumes more than offset price declines.

Wholesale revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $1,181, or 8%, compared to fiscal 2021. The decreased wholesale revenue was primarily due to price compression in select markets as well as the non-recurrence of a bulk wholesale sale transaction of $1,500 in the prior year comparable period and was offset somewhat by the acquisitions of Greenleaf Ohio and CWG.

Retail cost of goods sold increased $9,415, or 67%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021, which was generally consistent with the 64% increase in retail revenue. Price compression in select markets was offset by cost efficiencies.

Wholesale cost of goods sold increased $980, or 16%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021, which outpaced the 8% increase in wholesale revenue. Wholesale cost of goods sold increased due to the volume increase associated with the wholesale revenue growth and due to overall costs increases related to general inflation.

Gross profit increased $6,739, or 28%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 to $30,614 from $23,875 in 2021. Gross margin decreased from 54% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to 50% of revenue in 2022, or (4)%. Efficiencies gained from further economies of scale were unable to offset overall selling price declines and cost increases due to inflation.

Six months ended June 30, 2022 vs. 2021

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 grew by $35,620, or 43%, compared with 2021. On a comparative basis, total revenue increased by $32,885 due to the acquisitions of (i) Greenleaf Ohio in October 2021, (ii) certain Maine operations and (iii) CWG in May 2021 and was offset by decreases of $439 due to the divestiture of Acreage Florida in April 2021. Additionally, total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022 for the Company’s operations in Oregon, which are considered non-core and have been sold or are in the process of being sold, decreased by $1,455 as compared to fiscal 2021. Finally, total revenue for the prior comparative six months ended June 30, 2021 included (i) $2,530 of previously unrecognized management fees in New Hampshire, some of which related to prior periods and (ii) a bulk wholesale sale transaction of $1,500

that did not recur. Excluding these acquisitions and divestitures/closures, the impact of total revenue declines in the Company’s Oregon operations and the non-recurring transactions for the six months ended June 30 ,2021, total revenue increased by $5,690, or 8%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to fiscal 2021.

Retail revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 grew by $33,869, or 62%, compared with 2021. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures/closures, retail revenue increased by $3,605 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended 2021. This organic growth was primarily driven by increased demand and production across various states and was partially offset by retail revenue declines of $1,455 in non-core states (Oregon).

Wholesale revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 grew by $3,975, or 16%, compared to fiscal 2021. The increased wholesale revenue was primarily due to increased capacity, coupled with maturing operations at the Company’s Pennsylvania and Illinois cultivation facilities. This resulted in higher yields and product mix in each of the respective markets. Additionally, wholesale revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $2,621 due to acquisitions that have occurred over the prior 24 months which was somewhat offset by a bulk wholesale sale transaction of $1,500 in the second quarter of 2021 that did not recur.

Retail cost of goods sold increased $17,101, or 63%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021, which was generally consistent with the 62% increase in retail revenue. Price compression in select markets was offset by cost efficiencies.

Wholesale cost of goods sold increased $2,892, or 26%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to 2021, which outpaced by the 16% increase in wholesale revenue. Wholesale cost of goods sold increased due to the volume increase associated with the wholesale revenue growth and due to overall costs increases related to general inflation.

Gross profit increased $15,627, or 35%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to $60,124 from $44,497 in 2021, and Gross margin decreased from 54% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 51% of revenue in 2022, or (3)%, due to the factors discussed above. Excluding other revenue which has no associated costs of goods sold, gross margin declined from 52% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 51% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Efficiencies gained from further economies of scale were unable to offset overall selling price declines and cost increases due to inflation.

Non-GAAP Information

This statement includes Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure that we use to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate its actual operating performance and for planning and forecasting future periods. The Company believes that the adjusted results presented provide relevant and useful information for investors because they clarify the Company’s actual operating performance, make it easier to compare our results with those of other companies and allow investors to review performance in the same way as our management. Since these measures are not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net loss or our other reported results of operations as reported under U.S. GAAP as indicators of our performance, and they may not be comparable to similarly named measures from other companies.

The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes and, depreciation and amortization and excluding the following: (i) income from investments, net (the majority of the Company's investment income relates to remeasurement to fair value of previously-held interests in connection with our roll-up of affiliates, and the Company expects income from investments to be a non-recurring item as its legacy investment holdings diminish), (ii) equity-based compensation expense, (iii) non-cash impairment losses, (iv) transaction costs and (v) other non-recurring expenses (other expenses and income not expected to recur).

The increases in adjusted EBITDA are driven by the factors discussed above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Sources and uses of cash

The Company’s primary uses of capital include operating expenses, capital expenditures and the servicing of outstanding debt. The Company’s primary sources of capital include funds generated by cannabis sales as well as financing activities. Through June 30, 2022, the Company had primarily used private financing as a source of liquidity for short-term working capital needs and general corporate purposes.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $29,235 (not including $95 of restricted cash or $234 of cash held for sale within current Assets held-for-sale on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position). As of June 30, 2022, the Company also had short-term investments of $3,403 which can be readily be converted into cash. The Company’s ability to fund its operations, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and other obligations depends on its future operating performance and ability to obtain financing, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions, as well as financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond the Company’s control.

The Company’s future contractual obligations include the following:

Leases

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had future operating lease obligations and future finance lease obligations of $36,977 and $21,685, respectively, with $2,249 and $6,179 payable within 12 months, respectively. The Company leases land, buildings, equipment and other capital assets which it plans to use for corporate purposes in addition to the production and sale of cannabis products. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and are expensed in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations on the straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company does not have any material variable lease payments, and accounts for non-lease components separately from leases. Refer to Note 8 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Debt

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding debt with varying maturities for an aggregate principal amount of $201,540, with $6,571 payable within the remaining six months. The Company has related future interest payments of $73,610, with $8,267 payable within the remaining six months. Refer to Note 10 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

The Company expects that its total readily available funds of $29,235 and its further ability to obtain private and/or public financing, will be adequate to support the future obligations discussed above as well as the capital needs of the existing operations and expansion plans over the next twelve months. Refer to Note 2 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Cash flows

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and cash held for sale were $29,564 as of June 30, 2022, a decrease of $14,937 from June 30, 2021. The following table details the change in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash related to assets held for sale for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Net cash used in operating activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company used $23,466 of net cash in operating activities, which represented an increase of $2,428, or 12%, when compared with 2021. Although the reported net loss increased during the six months ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period of 2021, the net loss excluding non-cash items such as impairments, equity based compensation, write-offs and recoveries, gains and losses on disposals and depreciation and amortization improved by $7,607. This improvement was more than offset by an increase in the cash flow required to fund working capital, in particular an increase in inventories as a result of the expanded operations and decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and income taxes payable.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company used $9,488 of net cash through investing activities compared to $44,738 of net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which represented a change of $54,226. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included (i) $12,776 on the purchase of capital assets and intangibles, (ii) a $5,999 net reduction in notes receivable and (iii) $3,400 paid for short-term investments. Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included (i) $15,829 on the purchase of capital assets and intangibles, (ii) a $8,825 net reduction in notes receivable and (iii) $50,408 of proceeds from business divestitures, including the related sale of promissory notes.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had $18,017 of net cash provided by financing activities compared to $40,505 of net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021, which represented a change of $58,522. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included (i) $24,489 of net proceeds from financing, (ii) ($938) of repayments of debt and (iii) ($5,534) of capital distributions to non-controlling interest. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included (i) $3,565 of net proceeds from financing and (ii) ($44,070) of repayments of debt.

Commitments and contingencies

Commitments

The Company provides revolving lines of credit to several third parties. Refer to Note 6 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

In connection with the CanWell settlement discussed in Note 13 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company issued a promissory note in the amount of $7,750, which is non-interest bearing and is payable in periodic payments through December 31, 2024.

Definitive agreements

In September 2021, a subsidiary of the Company entered into a definitive agreement and management services agreements to sell, upon regulatory approval, four retail dispensaries in Oregon for total consideration of $6,500, consisting of a $250 cash payment at the time of signing and a 10-month secured promissory note. In June 2022, the total consideration was reduced to $6,200. This sale closed early in the third quarter of 2022.

Arrangement with Canopy Growth

On June 19, 2019, the shareholders of the Company and of Canopy Growth separately approved the Prior Plan of Arrangement involving the two companies. Subsequently, on September 23, 2020, Acreage and Canopy Growth entered into an amending agreement and the Amended Arrangement became effective on September 23, 2020. Refer to Note 13 of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Surety bonds

The Company is subject to other capital commitments and similar obligations. As of June 30, 2022, such amounts were not material.

Contingencies

Critical accounting policies and estimates

We have adopted various accounting policies to prepare the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. In our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we identified the critical accounting policies which affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2022 there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those previously disclosed in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk (presented in thousands, except share amounts).

The Company has exposure to certain risks, including market, credit, liquidity, asset forfeiture, banking and interest rate risk, and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks. However, there have been no material changes in our market risk during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. For additional information, refer to our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, and due to the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting described below, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were not effective for the period ending June 30, 2022 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets;

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that the Company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and

(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls in future periods are subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In accordance with guidance issued by the SEC, companies are permitted to exclude acquisitions from their final assessment of internal control over financial reporting for the first fiscal year in which the acquisition occurred. Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has limited the evaluation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting to exclude controls, policies and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting of the recently acquired operations of:

•Greenleaf Apothecaries, Greenleaf Gardens, and Greenleaf Therapeutics, collectively “Greenleaf” (acquired October 1, 2021).

The operations of Greenleaf represents approximately 10% of the Company’s total assets as of June 30, 2022 and 25% of the Company’s gross revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

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

The review, testing and evaluation of key internal controls over financial reporting completed by the Company resulted in the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluding that as of June 30, 2022, a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Specifically, as a result of turnover and the availability of resources with the appropriate level of technical capabilities (including the impacts on staffing and recruiting and the general global labor shortage brought about by the global COVID-19 pandemic), the Company did not have effective staffing levels and adequate segregation of duties within several finance and accounting processes. Further, and as a result of this material weakness, the Company’s financial disclosures for the quarterly period ending June 30, 2021 incorrectly disclosed certain debt that was due 11 months after the balance sheet date as long-term rather than as current liabilities. Additionally, and as a result of this material weakness, the Company’s financial disclosures for the quarterly and annual periods ended June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021, and September 30, 2021 incorrectly reported the weighted average shares outstanding which resulted in an incorrect determination of earnings per share and diluted earnings per share.

The Company has begun to address the material weakness described above through the following actions, which are expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2022:

a.Engaging third-party consultants with appropriate expertise to assist the finance and accounting department on an interim basis until key roles are filled;

b.Assessing finance and accounting resources to identify the areas and functions that lack sufficient personnel and recruiting for experienced personnel to assume these roles;

c.Further centralization of key accounting processes to enable greater segregation of duties;

d.Developing further training on segregation of duties; and

e.Designing and implementing additional compensating controls where necessary.

The Company is working diligently to remediate this material weakness by hiring qualified and capable personnel. Further, we will continue to evaluate and assess the staffing needs of the Company as the landscape and needs of the Company continue to evolve. While we are working diligently to remediate this material weakness, there is no assurance that this material weakness will be fully remediated by the fourth quarter of 2022 given continuing lasting impacts of COVID-19 on staffing and labor for companies within our industry and otherwise.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than the changes discussed above in connection with our implementation of the remediation plan, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a–15(f) and 15d–15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent quarter, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
