JUSHI HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts Expressed in Thousands of U.S. dollars, Except Share and Per Share Amounts)


1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Jushi Holdings Inc. (the “Company” or “Jushi”) is incorporated under the British Columbia’s Business Corporations Act. The Company is a vertically integrated, multi-state cannabis operator engaged in retail, distribution, cultivation, and processing in both medical and adult-use markets. As of March 31, 2024, Jushi, through its subsidiaries, owns or manages cannabis operations and/or holds licenses in the adult-use and/or medicinal cannabis marketplace in California, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The Company’s head office is located at 301 Yamato Road, Suite 3250, Boca Raton, Florida 33431, United States of America, and its registered address is Suite 1700, Park Place, 666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 2X8, Canada.

The Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) and trades its subordinate voting shares (“SVS”) under the ticker symbol “JUSH”, and trades on the United States Over the Counter Stock Market (“OTCQX”) under the symbol “JUSHF”.


2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, that are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods, and at the dates, presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024 (the “2023 Form 10-K”), and was also filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”) on April 1, 2024. Consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2023 presented herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Going Concern and Liquidity

As reflected in the 2023 Form 10-K, the Company used net cash of $3,318 for operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023, and as of that date, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $80,825. Furthermore, as of March 31, 2024, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $81,294. Such current liabilities as of March 31, 2024, include aggregate contractual maturities of (i) $57,687 of the Acquisition Facility (as defined below) debt that is to be paid in cash within the next twelve months, absent a refinancing, (ii) $23,747 of debt (including $2,247 of interest and $5,000 of milestone accruals) that are subject to indemnity claims in favor of the Company and not currently expected to be paid in cash within the next twelve months and (iii) $3,225 debt related to Jushi Europe SA (“Jushi Europe”), where the payments are subject to completion of the liquidation of Jushi Europe. Refer to Note 9 - Debt and Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies for more information. Absent a refinancing of the Acquisition Facility debt, the Company will not meet its obligations within the next year. Management believes that with refinancing of the Acquisition Facility debt, the Company would meet its obligations.

Table of Contents


JUSHI HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts Expressed in Thousands of U.S. dollars, Except Share and Per Share Amounts)

As concluded in the 2023 Form 10-K, substantial doubt existed about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, and, as a result of the above, substantial doubt continues to exist within the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued. The Company has a history of refinancing its debt and management intends to refinance the Acquisition Facility debt before the maturity date. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon future financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors and continue as a going concern.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 in the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is included in the 2023 Form 10-K. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:


	March 31, 2024 (unaudited)		December 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	25,286	$	26,027
Restricted cash - current (1)	3,128		3,128
Restricted cash - non-current (1)	2,150		2,150
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	30,564	$	31,305

(1)Restricted cash primarily relates to the Manassas Mortgage. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the lender released the entire $3,128 of current restricted cash to the Company. Consequently, such cash is now unrestricted. Refer to Note 9 - Debt and Note 21 - Subsequent Events for more information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In June 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06 Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. This ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

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 FASB issued guidance requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. At the acquisition date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance with Topic 606 as

JUSHI HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts Expressed in Thousands of U.S. dollars, Except Share and Per Share Amounts)

if it had originated the contracts. To achieve this, an acquirer may assess how the acquiree applied Topic 606 to determine what to record for the acquired revenue contracts. Generally, this should result in an acquirer recognizing and measuring the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with how they were recognized and measured in the acquiree’s financial statements (if the acquiree prepared financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles). The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The FASB issued guidance clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot, as a separate unit of account, recognize and measure a contractual sale restriction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements. The FASB issued guidance clarifies the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, by requiring that leasehold improvements associated with common control leases be amortized by the lessee over the useful life of the leasehold improvements to the common control group (regardless of the lease term) as long as the lessee controls the use of the underlying asset through a lease. Additionally, leasehold improvements associated with common control leases should be accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control through an adjustment to equity if, and when, the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023. There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires two primary enhancements of 1) disaggregated information on a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation, and 2) information on incomes taxes paid. For public business entities, the new requirement will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, passed in March 2020 and subsequently amended in 2021, allowed eligible employers to take credits on certain amounts of qualified wages if the Company experienced either a full or partial suspension of operations due to COVID related government orders. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company, with guidance from a third-party specialist, determined it was entitled to employee retention credit (“ERC”) claims of $10,140 for previous business interruptions related to COVID and filed for such claims with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). The ERC claims, which will be recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) when the Company receives the refunds of such claims from the IRS, were recorded as deferred income in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities, with an offsetting receivable amount in Prepaid expenses and other current assets within the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company determined that one of its grower processor facilities located in Nevada, with total carrying value of $1,647, met the criteria to be classified as assets held for sale, and therefore were reclassified from Property, plant and equipment, net to assets held for sale, which is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

6. ACQUISITIONS

Nature’s Remedy

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Nature’s Remedy”), in September 2021 the Company agreed to issue up to an additional $5,000 in Company SVS to Sammartino Investments LLC (“Sammartino”) upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of certain events after the closing date. The payment of the contingent consideration depends on whether or not a competitor (as defined in the definitive acquisition documents) opens a competing dispensary within a certain radius of the Company’s dispensary in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts during the period beginning on the 12-month anniversary of the closing date and ending on the 30-month anniversary of the closing date (the “Milestone Period”). On each monthly anniversary of the closing date during the Milestone Period (beginning on the 13-month anniversary of the closing date), Sammartino shall accrue $278 worth of Company SVS (a “Monthly Milestone Accrual”). On the 18-month, 24-month and 30-month anniversary of the closing date (and provided a competitor has not opened a competing dispensary within a certain radius of the Company’s dispensary in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts), Sammartino is entitled to be issued Company SVS in an amount equal to $1,667 divided by a volume weighted average reference share price.

A competitor has not opened a competing dispensary within the stated radius of the Company’s dispensary in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts. Consequently, beginning in March 2023, the Company began recording a liability for the Monthly Milestone Accrual. As of March 31, 2024, $5,000 of Monthly Milestone Accrual was classified as acquisition-related milestone accrual in other current liabilities. As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate contingent consideration liability was $4,984, of which $4,167 of Monthly Milestone Accrual was classified as acquisition-related milestone accrual in other current liabilities and the remaining $817 was included as short-term contingent consideration liability.

As discussed in greater detail in Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies, on February 28, 2023, the Company informed Sammartino that Sammartino had breached several provisions of the Merger and Membership Interest Purchase Agreement between the Company, Sammartino and certain other parties thereto (as amended, the “MIPA”) and pursuant to the terms of the MIPA the Company had elected to offset these damages against (among other things) all present and future Monthly Milestone Accruals (the “Sammartino Matter”).

Any repayment of principal and interest are currently on hold until the resolution of the Sammartino Matter. Refer to Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies for more information.

(2)On February 16, 2022, Jushi Europe filed a notice of over-indebtedness with the Swiss courts. Then, the Swiss courts declared Jushi Europe’s bankruptcy on May 19, 2022. As a result, Jushi Europe updated its corporate name to Jushi Europe SA in liquidation, which is still on-going. This debt balance will be adjusted, including the extinguishment of any outstanding debt, upon the final liquidation of Jushi Europe. Refer to Note 17 - Related Party Transactions for more information.

Second Lien Notes

On January 24, 2024, the Company entered into two Note Exchange Agreements with holders of approximately $9,850 of the Company’s unsecured debt (the “Existing Notes”). Upon closing of the transactions contemplated in the Note Exchange Agreements (the “Debt Exchange”) on February 6, 2024, the holders of the Existing Notes delivered the Existing Notes to the Company for cancellation, and the Company: (1) issued to certain direct and beneficial holders of the Existing Notes an aggregate of $4,750 principal amount of Second Lien Notes; (2) issued to certain direct and beneficial holders of the Existing Notes fully-detached warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,800,000 of the Company’s SVS, with each warrant having an exercise price of $1.00 per SVS and an expiration of December 7, 2026; and (3) paid to the direct holders of the Existing Notes an aggregate of $2,750 in cash. Refer to Note 12 - Equity for more information.

The Debt Exchange was accounted for as a debt extinguishment, and resulted in the Company recording a non-cash gain on debt extinguishment of $399, which represents the difference between the reacquisition price of the Existing Notes and the net carrying amount of the Existing Notes prior to redemption. This amount was recorded in other income (expenses), net in the consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive income (loss).

11. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s derivative liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2024.


	Total Derivative Liabilities (1)
Balance as of January 1, 2024	$	2,638
Fair value changes	5,100


Balance as of March 31, 2024	$	7,738

(1)Refer to Note 12 - Equity for the change in number of warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The Company’s derivative liabilities are primarily comprised of derivative warrants (“Derivative Warrants”). These are warrants to purchase SVS of the Company and were previously issued in connection with the Company’s 10% senior secured notes. The Derivative Warrants may be net share settled. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were 37,862,922 Derivative Warrants outstanding, which consisted of (i) 29,972,000 warrants with exercise price of $1.25 per warrant and expiration date in December 2024, (ii) 5,890,922 warrants with exercise price of $1.00 per warrant and expiration date of December 2024, and (iii) 2,000,000 warrants with an exercise price of $2.086 per warrant and expiration date in December 2026.

Derivative Warrants are considered derivative financial liabilities measured at fair value with all gains or losses recognized in profit or loss as the settlement amount for the Derivative Warrants may be adjusted during certain periods for variables that are not inputs to standard pricing models for forward or option equity contracts, i.e., the “fixed for fixed” criteria under ASC 815-40. The estimated fair value of the Derivative Warrants is measured at the end of each reporting period and an adjustment is reflected in fair value changes in derivatives in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). These are Level 3 recurring fair value measurements. The estimated fair value of the Derivative Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes model with stock price based on the OTCQX closing price of the Derivative Warrants issue date as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The assumptions used in the fair value calculations as of the balance sheet dates presented include the following:


	March 31, 2024 (unaudited)	December 31, 2023
Stock price	$0.73	$0.46
Risk-free annual interest rate	4.45% - 5.21%	4.01% - 4.79%
Range of estimated possible exercise price	$1.00 - $2.086	$1.00 - $2.086
Weighted average volatility	124%	101%
Remaining life	0.70 - 2.70 years	1.00 - 2.90 years
Forfeiture rate	0%	0%
Expected annual dividend yield	0%	0%

Volatility was estimated by using a weighting of the Company’s historical volatility. The risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the Derivative Warrants was based on the yield available on government benchmark bonds with an approximate equivalent remaining term. The expected life is based on the contractual term. If any of the assumptions used in the calculation were to increase or decrease, this could result in a material or significant increase or decrease in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability. For example, the following table illustrates an increase or decrease in certain significant assumptions as of the balance sheet dates:

(1)In February 2024, there were 1,800,000 warrants issued in connection with the Debt Exchange. Refer to Note 9 - Debt for more information.

The grant date fair value of the non-derivative warrants issued was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used for the calculation at date of issuance:


Weighted average stock price			$0.93
Weighted average expected stock price volatility			76.5%
Expected annual dividend yield			0%
Weighted average expected life of warrants			3.1 years

available for issuance under the 2019 Plan, including additional awards available for certain new hires, was 4,829,392 as of March 31, 2024.

Stock Options

The stock options issued by the Company are options to purchase SVS of the Company. All stock options issued have been issued to directors and employees under the Company’s 2019 Plan. Such options generally expire ten years from the date of grant and generally vest ratably over three years from the grant date. The options generally may be net share settled. The following table summarizes the status of stock options and related transactions:


	Number of Stock Options	Weighted-Average Per Share Exercise Price

The Company has computed its provision for income taxes based on the actual effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 as the Company believes this is the best estimate for the annual effective tax rate. Therefore, the Company’s effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are not indicative of the effective income tax rate for each respective fiscal year of 2024 and 2023. The Company’s effective income tax rate is significantly higher than the statutory income tax rates due in part to (i) disallowed expenses under U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”), Section 280E, (ii) change in liability for unrecognized tax benefits, (iii) fair value change of derivatives, (iv) interest and penalties accrual for tax liabilities, and (v) state income taxes.

Due to its cannabis operations, the Company is subject to the limitation of IRC Section 280E (“280E”) under which the Company is only allowed to deduct "costs of goods sold". This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under 280E. Therefore, the effective tax rate can be highly variable and may not necessarily correlate with pre-tax income which provides for effective tax rates that are well in excess of statutory tax rates. In connection with the preparation and filing of the fiscal 2022 federal income tax return, the Company changed its previous application of 280E to exclude certain parts of its business. However, since the Company’s new tax position on 280E may be challenged by the IRS, the Company elected to treat the deductibility of these related expenses as an uncertain tax position. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the balances in income tax payable and unrecognized tax benefits on the consolidated balance sheets include the impact of the new tax position on 280E, which decreased current liabilities with a corresponding increase in non-current liabilities. There was no material impact to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The Company’s tax returns for the year 2021 and prior benefited from not applying 280E to certain entities of the consolidated group either due to the entity not yet starting operations or because the entity had a separate trade or business that was not medical or recreational cannabis operations. The Company determined that it is not more likely than not these tax positions would be sustained under examination.

As a result of the above, the Company has a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $109,204 and $100,343 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, inclusive of interest and penalties. Additionally, there are unrecognized deferred tax benefits of $17,353 and $17,303 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company anticipates that it is reasonably possible that its new tax position on 280E may require changes to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months. However, an estimate of such changes cannot reasonably be made.


17. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had the following related party transactions:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				As of
	2024		2023		March 31, 2024 (unaudited)		December 31, 2023
Nature of transaction	Related Party Expense				Related Party Payable

12% Second Lien Notes - interest expense and principal amount (1)	$	(577)	$	(521)	$	(19,493)	$	(19,788)
Other debt (2)	$	—	$	—	$	(3,225)	$	(3,298)

(1)For the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Second Lien Notes payable and the related interest expense includes amounts related to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as well as a significant investor.

(2)Other debt relates to Jushi Europe. On February 16, 2022, Jushi Europe filed a notice of over-indebtedness with the Swiss courts. Then, the Swiss courts declared Jushi Europe’s bankruptcy on May 19, 2022. As a result, Jushi Europe updated its corporate name to Jushi Europe SA in liquidation, which is still on-going.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingencies

Although the possession, cultivation and distribution of cannabis for medical and recreational use is permitted in certain states, cannabis is classified as a Schedule-I controlled substance under the U.S. Controlled Substances Act and its use remains a violation of federal law. 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 ceasing operations. While management believes that the Company is in material compliance with applicable local and state regulations as of March 31, 2024, marijuana regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company could be subject to regulatory fines, penalties or restrictions at any time. Since federal law criminalizing the use of cannabis preempts state laws that legalize its use, strict enforcement of federal law regarding cannabis would likely result in the Company’s inability to proceed with the Company’s business plans. In addition, the Company’s assets, including real property, cash and cash equivalents, equipment, inventory and other goods, could be subject to asset forfeiture because cannabis is still federally illegal.

Refer to Note 16 - Income Taxes for certain tax-related contingencies.

Claims and Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2024, except as set forth below, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial results. There are also no proceedings in which any of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s interest.

MJ Market matter

On March 31, 2023, MJ’s Market, Inc. (“MJ’s”) filed a complaint in federal district court in Massachusetts adverse to Jushi Holdings Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries, including Jushi MA, Inc., Jushi Inc. and Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts, as well as the former owners and affiliates of Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts (the “Complaint”). The Complaint centrally claims that the structure of the Nature’s Remedy of Massachusetts transaction providing for increased purchase price consideration if there is no competing dispensary within 2,500 foot radius by certain time periods, and the Company’s filing with the Massachusetts Superior Court an appeal of the Town of Tyngsborough’s decision to approve MJ’s facility in contradiction of its own zoning bylaws are violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act, Massachusetts Antitrust Act, and Massachusetts Consumer Protection Act, as well as interference with contractual relations and abuse of process. MJ is seeking legal and equitable remedies including compensatory and other damages. The Company disputes such allegations, believes it has substantial defenses and is vigorously defending against the Complaint.

Sammartino Matter

On February 28, 2023, the Company informed Sammartino, the former owner of Nature’s Remedy and certain of its affiliates, that Sammartino had breached several provisions of the MIPA and/or fraudulently induced the Company to enter into, and not terminate, the MIPA. As a consequence of these breaches and the fraudulent inducement, the Company informed Sammartino that the Company had incurred significant damages, and pursuant to the terms of the MIPA the Company had elected to offset these damages against certain promissory notes and shares the Company was to pay and issue, respectively, to Sammartino, and that Sammartino would be required to pay the remainder in cash. On March 13, 2023, Sammartino responded to the Company by alleging various procedural deficiencies with the Company’s claim and provided the Company with a notice that the Company was in default of the MIPA for failing to issue certain shares of the Company to Sammartino. On March 21, 2023, Sammartino sent a second notice that the Company was in default of the promissory notes for failing to pay interest pursuant to their specified schedule. On March 23, 2023, the Company sent a

Table of Contents


JUSHI HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts Expressed in Thousands of U.S. dollars, Except Share and Per Share Amounts)

second letter to Sammartino disputing each procedural deficiency claimed by Sammartino and disputing that the Company is in default of the MIPA or the promissory notes and that it properly followed the terms of the various agreements in electing to set off the damages.

Pacific Collective matter

On October 24, 2022, Pacific Collective, LLC (“Pacific Collective”) filed a complaint in state court in California against Jushi subsidiaries TGS CC Ventures, LLC (“TGS”), and Jushi Inc. Pacific Collective alleges that the Jushi subsidiaries breached a commercial property lease and lease guaranty and that Pacific Collective is entitled to recover in excess of $20,000 in damages. TGS believes it lawfully rescinded the lease based on Pacific Collective’s failure to purchase the property that was the subject of the lease and to construct and deliver the building contemplated by the lease and is of the position that no damages are owed to Pacific Collective. The Referee assigned to the matter delivered a Statement of Decision on March 7, 2024 ruling in favor of TGS and Jushi.

Commitments

In addition to the contractual obligations outlined in Note 9 - Debt and Note 10 - Leases, the Company has the following commitments as of March 31, 2024 related to property and construction.

Property and Construction Commitments

In connection with various license applications, the Company may enter into conditional leases or other property commitments which will be executed if the Company is successful in obtaining the applicable license and/or resolving other contingencies related to the license or application.

In addition, the Company expects to incur capital expenditures for leasehold improvements and construction of buildouts of certain locations, including for properties for which the lease is conditional on obtaining the applicable related license or for which other contingencies exist. If the Company were to be unsuccessful in obtaining a particular license or certain other conditions are not met, the previously capitalized improvements and buildouts relating to that license may need to be expensed in future periods in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

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

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) covers the consolidated financial statements of Jushi Holdings Inc. and its controlled subsidiaries as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (the “Financial Statements”). Unless the context indicates or requires otherwise, the terms “Jushi”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refers to Jushi Holdings Inc. and its controlled entities. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (the “Quarterly Financial Statements”). The Quarterly Financial Statements have been prepared by management and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 1, 2024 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) and was also filed on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”). All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

Company Overview

We are a vertically integrated, multi-state cannabis operator engaged in retail, distribution, cultivation, and processing operations in both medical and adult-use markets. We are focused on building a diverse portfolio of cannabis assets through opportunistic investments and pursuing application opportunities in attractive limited license jurisdictions and capitalizing on such assets through strategic deployment in our day-to-day operations. We have targeted assets in highly populated, limited license medical markets on a trajectory toward adult-use legalization, including Pennsylvania, markets that are in the process of transitioning to adult-use, namely Ohio and Virginia, and limited license, fast-growing, large adult-use markets, such as Illinois, Nevada and Massachusetts, and certain municipalities of California.

Factors Affecting our Performance and Related Trends

Competition and Pricing Pressure

The cannabis industry is subject to significant competition and pricing pressures, which is often market specific and can be caused by an oversupply of cannabis in the market, and may be transitory from period to period. We may experience significant competitive pricing pressures as well as competitive products and service providers in the markets in which we operate. Several significant competitors may offer products and/or services with prices that may match or are lower than ours. We believe that the products and services we offer are generally competitive with those offered by other cannabis companies. It is possible that one or more of our competitors could develop a significant research advantage over us that allows them to provide superior products or pricing, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Continued pricing pressure due to competition, increased cannabis supply or shifts in customer preferences could adversely impact our customer base or pricing structure, resulting in a material impact on our results of operations, or asset impairments in future periods.

Recent Developments

(Amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share amounts)

On April 16, 2024, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 that was declared effective by the SEC on April 30, 2024 (the “S-3”). The S-3 permits us to offer and sell up to an aggregate amount of $250,000 of any combination of subordinate voting shares, preferred shares, warrants, units, and/or rights. We may also offer securities as may be issuable upon conversion, redemption, repurchase, exchange or exercise of any securities registered under the S-3, including any applicable antidilution provisions. In addition, the S-3 registered an aggregate of 44,660,966 subordinate voting shares for resale by James Cacioppo, our CEO.

On April 15, 2024, we announced the appointment of Todd West as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer effective April 12, 2024. Mr. West will oversee the Company’s grower-processor and retail operations as well as security.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

(Amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

Revenue, Net

The following table presents revenue by type for the periods indicated:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023		$ Change		% Change
Retail	$	57,369	$	62,311	$	(4,942)	(8)	%
Wholesale	8,090		7,562		528		7	%
Total revenue, net	$	65,459	$	69,873	$	(4,414)	(6)	%

Revenue, net, was $65,459 compared to $69,873, a decrease of $4,414 or 6%. Retail revenue decreased $4,942 primarily due to declines in revenue in: (i) Illinois, due to the impact of the state of Missouri moving to recreational use, and (ii) Nevada and Pennsylvania, due to market price compression and increased competition. The decrease was partially offset by increased sales in Virginia due in part to the opening of one new store in August 2023. The Company ended the quarter with thirty-five operating dispensaries in seven states, as compared to thirty-seven in seven states at the end of March 31, 2023.

Wholesale revenue increased $528 primarily due to continued advancements at our cultivation and processing facilities that has enabled us to diversify our product offerings, as well as increasing our competitiveness on quality, cost and distribution.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $32,330 compared to $29,941, an increase of $2,389 or 8%. Gross profit margin increased to 49% compared to 43%. The improvement in gross profit and gross profit margin was driven by operating efficiencies at our grower processor facilities and cost optimization initiatives, such as changes to our packaging. The benefit of these improvements was partially offset by declines in retail revenue in Illinois and Pennsylvania driven by competition both inside of such states and, with respect to Illinois, in neighboring Missouri.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $28,211 compared to $32,452, a decrease of $4,241 or 13%. The following table presents information of our operating expenses for the periods indicated:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023		$ Change		% Change
Salaries, wages and employee related expenses	$	14,147	$	16,804	$	(2,657)	(16)	%

Total operating expenses	$	28,211	$	32,452	$	(4,241)	(13)	%

(1) Other expenses are primarily comprised of marketing and selling expenses, insurance costs, administrative and application fees, software and technology costs, travel, entertainment and conferences and other.

Table of Contents

Salaries, wages, and employee-related expenses decreased due to the benefits from both the staffing model changes in our retail stores and right-sizing the organization that occurred in 2023. Lower share-based compensation expense reflects lower value of share-based compensation granted.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net was $9,544 compared to $8,520, an increase of $1,024, or 12%. The increase in interest expense, net is due to our higher overall debt balance, primarily due to the addition of the Manassas Mortgage in April 2023, the final draw on the Arlington Mortgage in January 2023, as well as the increase in the Second Lien Notes compared to March 31, 2023 due to issuance of Second Lien Notes during 2023 to settle accrued bonus, as well as issuance of Second Lien Notes in the Debt Exchange which occurred in February 2024. Interest related to the Acquisition Facility and promissory notes has declined as we continue to make principal payments.

Fair Value gain (loss) on Derivatives

Fair value loss on derivatives was $5,100, compared to a gain of $8,030. Fair value gain (loss) on derivatives include the fair value changes relating to the derivative warrants. The derivative warrants are required to be remeasured at fair value at each reporting period. The fair value changes in derivatives were primarily attributable to the movement in our stock price during the corresponding period.

Other, Net

Other, net was an income of $1,917, compared to $709, a change of $1,208. The increase in income was due primarily to $575 higher foreign exchange translation adjustment mainly relating to certain Second Lien Notes denominated in Canadian dollars, $399 gain on debt extinguishment and $400 reversal of legal claim accruals no longer required, partially offset by $440 lower indemnification asset relating to acquisitions made in prior years.

Income Tax Expense

Total income tax expense was $9,747 compared to $10,148 in the prior year, a decrease of $401 or 4%. The decrease in income tax expense is primarily due to a reduction in taxable gross profit.

Non-GAAP Measures and Reconciliation

In addition to providing financial measurements based on GAAP, we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate our financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (each as defined below). We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of our operating business performance and allow for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in our business. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. As there are no standardized methods of calculating these non-GAAP measures, our methods may differ from those used by others, and accordingly, the use of these measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by others, thus limiting their usefulness. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are 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.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that are not defined under GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income (loss), or “earnings”, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before: (i) non-cash share-based compensation expense; (ii) inventory-related adjustments; (iii) fair value

changes in derivatives; (iv) other (income)/expense items; (v) transaction costs; (vi) asset impairment; (vii) gain/loss on debt extinguishment; and (viii) start-up costs. These financial measures are metrics that have been adjusted from the GAAP net income (loss) measure in an effort to provide readers with a normalized metric in making comparisons more meaningful across the cannabis industry, as well as to remove non-recurring, irregular and one-time items that may otherwise distort the GAAP net income measure. Other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (Non- GAAP Measures)

(Amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars)

Adjusted EBITDA was $13,349 compared to $7,603, an increase of 5,746 or 76%. The increase in EBITDA was primarily due to operating efficiencies at our grower processor facilities, lower payroll cost due to a decrease in the number of employees as a result of right sizing the organization, as well as changes to our staffing model at retail stores.

The table below reconciles net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated.

Operating activities. Cash provided by operations was $6,493, as compared to cash used in operations of $3,572. The change to cash provided by operating activities in the current year compared to cash used in operating activities in the prior year was primarily due to income from operations in the current year as compared to an operating loss in the prior year, higher non-cash adjustments, which was partially offset by a decrease in cash provided by operating assets and liabilities in the current year.

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities was $743 compared to $4,542. The current year includes $1,077 for the payments of property, plant and equipment for use in our operations partially offset by $334 in proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment. The prior year includes $4,542 for the payments of property, plant and equipment for use in our operations.

Financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities was $6,491 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $331. The current year includes (i) $2,750 in payments on promissory notes in the Note Exchange, (ii) $2,438 payments related to the Acquisition Facility debt, (iii) $728 in net finance lease obligation payments, (iv) $586 in payments of other financing activities, and (v) $37 in payments of mortgage-related debt, partially offset by (i) $46 of proceeds from other financing activities and (ii) $2 of proceeds from exercise of options. The prior year includes (i) $1,900 in proceeds from mortgage loans, partially offset by (i) $844 in net finance lease obligation payments, (ii) $668 in payments of other financing activities and (iii) $57 in payments of mortgage-related debt.

Liquidity

As reflected in our 2023 Form 10-K, we used net cash of $3,318 for operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023, and as of that date, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $80,825. Furthermore, as of March 31, 2024, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $81,294. Such current liabilities as of March 31, 2024 include aggregate contractual maturities of (i) $57,687 of the Acquisition Facility debt that is to be paid in cash within the next twelve months, absent a refinancing, (ii) $23,747 of debt (including $2,247 of interest and $5,000 of milestone accruals) that are subject to indemnity claims in favor of the Company and not currently expected to be paid in cash within the next twelve months and (iii) $3,225 debt related to Jushi Europe, where the payments are subject to completion of the liquidation of Jushi Europe. Refer to Note 9 - Debt and Note 18 - Commitments and Contingencies of our Quarterly Financial Statements contained in Part I. Item 1 of this report for more information. Absent a refinancing of the Acquisition Facility debt, we will not meet our obligations within the next year. We believe that with a refinancing of the Acquisition Facility debt, we will be able to meet our obligations.

As concluded in the 2023 Form 10-K, substantial doubt existed about our ability to continue as a going concern, and, as a result of the above, substantial doubt continues to exist within the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are issued. We have a history of refinancing our debt and management intends to refinance the Acquisition Facility debt before the maturity date. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon future financing. There is no assurance that we will be successful in this or any of our endeavors and continue as a going concern.

The Quarterly Financial Statements contained herein have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
