High Tide Continues Canadian Expansion with Three New Canna Cabana Locations

CALGARY, AB, Aug. 31, 2026 /CNW/ -- High Tide Inc. ("High Tide" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: HITI) (TSXV: HITI) (FSE: 2LYA), the high-impact, retail-forward enterprise built to deliver real-world value across every component of cannabis, announced today that, pending regulatory approval, it expects to open three new Canna Cabana locations over a four-day period in Lindsay and Orléans, Ontario, and Regina, Saskatchewan. Once open, these locations will bring High Tide's Canadian Canna Cabana store count to 232, including 105 in Ontario and 14 in Saskatchewan.

"Every new store must earn its place in our network. These three locations combine strong traffic, high visibility and favourable competitive dynamics, which are exactly the kind of sites where Canna Cabana's scale, membership base and discount club model can build durable market share and generate attractive returns over time. We are expanding deliberately, not simply chasing store count, and will continue to put site quality and return on invested capital first," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide.

"With more than 15 locations currently at various stages of development, we expect a steady cadence of further store announcements through the calendar year-end. We remain on track to meet our goal of adding at least 20 new Cabanas in calendar 2026, funded from internally generated cash flow. I look forward to providing full financial results and operational highlights for the third fiscal quarter on September 14," added Mr. Grover.

Lindsay Location

The Company's new Canna Cabana located at 351 Kent Street West, Unit 1, in Lindsay, Ontario is expected to begin selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use on September 2, 2026. The Company secured the Lindsay premises through an assignment of an existing lease from an established local operator. The location will be converted to the Canna Cabana banner.

Lindsay is the primary municipality in the City of Kawartha Lakes and serves as the regional commercial hub with cottage-country seasonal traffic and limited competitive density. The store benefits from strong visibility along a major shopping corridor and sits directly in front of a regional shopping centre anchored by a national grocer, a national home improvement retailer, and a discount department store. With limited competitive density, this location represents an opportunity to establish Canna Cabana in a region where quality commercial sites are scarce.

Orléans Location

The Company's new Canna Cabana located at 900 Watters Road in the Orléans community of Ottawa, Ontario is expected to begin selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use on September 4, 2026.

Ottawa has been a proven market for Canna Cabana, and this location extends the Company's presence into a major eastern suburb it is not currently serving. The store is situated in a plaza anchored by a grocer, a discount department store, a national bank, and a mix of quick-service restaurants and commercial retail units, placing it in a commercial hub that residents visit as part of their daily routine. This is the first Canna Cabana in this major east Ottawa community, with more than 110,000 residents within five kilometres.

Regina Location

The Company's new Canna Cabana located at 6250 Rochdale Boulevard in Regina, Saskatchewan is expected to begin selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use on September 5, 2026.

The store is located along a major neighbourhood thoroughfare, beside a high-traffic gas station and adjacent to a national quick-service restaurant. The location is in the new northwest Regina node, with approximately 90,000 residents within five kilometres and no competitor within one kilometre.
