MedMen Convertible Note

 

On  August 31, 2021, the Company issued 9,817,061 shares valued at $117,804 to acquire 68% interest in Superhero Acquisition L.P. (“SH Acquisition”), which purchased a senior secured convertible note issued by MedMen (the "MedMen Convertible Note"), together with certain associated warrants to acquire Class B subordinate voting shares of MedMen, in the principal amount of $165,799. The MedMen Convertible Note bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 6%, with a SOFR floor of 2.5% with any accrued interest being added to the outstanding principal amount. The outstanding principal amount, together with accrued interest is to be paid on  August 17, 2028, the maturity date of the MedMen Convertible Note. SH Acquisition was also granted “top-up” rights enabling it (and its limited partners) to maintain its percentage ownership (on an “as-converted” basis) in the event that MedMen issues equity securities. SH Acquisition’s ability to convert the MedMen Convertible Note and exercise the Warrants is dependent upon U.S. federal legalization of cannabis or Tilray’s waiver of such requirement as well as any additional regulatory approvals. 

 

During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2025, the Company recognized an other-than-temporary change in fair value, which resulted in a non-cash expense of $20,000 compared to $42,681 for the fiscal year ended  May 31, 2024. The MedMen Convertible Note was valued based upon the fair value of the collateral assets net of disposal costs and has been reduced to reflect recent developments in restructuring efforts. 

 

As  previously disclosed, MedMen and certain of its subsidiaries commenced insolvency actions in  April 2024.  On  January 16, 2025, MedMen exited receivership and substantially all of its remaining assets were transferred to a new entity owned by MedMen’s secured creditors, including SH Acquisition. In connection with the foregoing, the Company disposed of its MedMen Convertible Note in exchange for an option to acquire a 68% membership interest in SH Acquisition for $1.00 upon U.S. federal cannabis legalization. See Note 12 (Long-term investments). As a result, the Company no longer controls SH Acquisition and thus no longer consolidates this entity for accounting purposes and as a result the Company recognized $1,661 of other-than-temporary change in fair value as part of this disposal. See Note 21 (Non-controlling interests).

 

The Company did not derive any revenue or cash from MedMen's operations, and fully complies with all limitations imposed by applicable U.S. law and regulations in connection with its ownership of the MedMen Convertible Note and/or its option to acquire SH Acquisition. In addition, since the fiscal year ended  May 31, 2024, the Company has not recognized any interest income on the MedMen Convertible Note, nor did the Company recognize any interest income for the fiscal year ended  May 31, 2025, which would have increased its value.
