Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that we believe are, or may be considered to be, “forward-looking statements.” All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this document regarding the prospects of our industry or our prospects, plans, financial position or business strategy may constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “foresee,” “project,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “forecast,” “continue” or “could” or the negative of these terms or variations of them or similar terms. Furthermore, forward-looking statements may be included in various filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and in press releases or oral statements made by or with the approval of one of our authorized executive officers. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to be correct. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in these forward-looking statements. These known and unknown risks include, without limitation: cannabis remains illegal under federal law, and enforcement of cannabis laws could change; the Company may be subject to action by the U.S. federal government; state regulation of cannabis is uncertain; the Company may be subject to heightened scrutiny by Canadian regulatory authorities; the Company may face limitations on ownership of cannabis licenses; the Company may become subject to U.S. Food and Drug Administration or the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives regulation; cannabis businesses are subject to applicable antimoney laundering laws and regulations and have restricted access to banking and other financial services; the Company may face difficulties acquiring additional financing; the Company lacks access to U.S. bankruptcy protections; the Company operates in a highly regulated sector and may not always succeed in complying fully with applicable regulatory requirements in all jurisdictions where we carry on business; the Company may face difficulties in enforcing its contracts; the Company has limited trademark protection; cannabis businesses are subject to unfavorable tax treatment; cannabis businesses may be subject to civil asset forfeiture; the Company is subject to proceeds of crime statutes; the Company faces exposure to fraudulent or illegal activity; the Company’s use of joint ventures may expose it to risks associated with jointly owned investments; the Company faces risks due to industry immaturity or limited comparable, competitive or established industry best practices; the Company faces risks related to its products; the Company is dependent on the popularity of consumer acceptance of the Company’s brand portfolio; the Company’s business is subject to the risks inherent in agricultural operations; the Company may be adversely impacted by rising or volatile energy costs; the Company faces an inherent risk of product liability or similar claims; the Company’s products may be subject to product recalls; the Company may face unfavorable publicity or consumer perception; the Company’s voting control is concentrated; the Company’s capital structure and voting control may cause unpredictability; issuances of substantial amounts of Super Voting Shares, Multiple Voting Shares or Subordinate Voting Shares may result in dilution; and the Company is governed by corporate laws in British Columbia, Canada which in some cases have a different effect on shareholders than the corporate laws in Delaware, United States. Further information on these and other potential factors that could affect the Company’s business and financial condition and the results of operations are included in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and elsewhere in the Company’s filings with the SEC, which are available on the SEC’s website or at https://investors.gtigrows.com. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements contained in this document, which reflect management’s opinions only as of the date hereof. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to any forward-looking statements. You are advised, however, to consult any additional disclosures we make in our reports to the SEC. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this document.

Green Thumb Industries Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts Expressed in United States Dollars, Except Where Stated Otherwise)

1. Overview and Basis of Presentation

 

(a)
Description of Business

Green Thumb Industries Inc. (“Green Thumb” or the “Company”); a national cannabis consumer packaged goods company and retailer, promotes well-being through the power of cannabis while being committed to community and sustainable profitable growth. Green Thumb owns, manufactures, and distributes a portfolio of cannabis consumer packaged goods brands including Beboe, Dogwalkers, Dr. Solomon’s, Good Green, incredibles, and Rythm, to third-party retail stores across the United States as well as to Green Thumb owned retail stores. The Company also owns and operates retail cannabis stores that include a rapidly growing national chain named Rise™ Dispensaries, all of which sell our products and third-party products. As of September 30, 2021, Green Thumb has revenue in fourteen markets (California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia), employs approximately 3,400 people and serves millions of patients and customers annually.

In addition to the states listed above, the Company also conducts pre-licensing activities in other markets. In these markets, the Company has either applied for licenses, or plans on applying for licenses, but does not currently own any cultivation, production or retail licenses.

The Company’s registered office is located at 250 Howe Street, 20th Floor, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3R8. The Company’s U.S. headquarters are at 325 W. Huron St., Suite 700, Chicago, IL 60654.

(b)
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Green Thumb and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and, accordingly, certain information, footnotes and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as amended (the "2020 Form 10-K"). In the opinion of management, the financial data presented includes all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Results of interim periods should not be considered indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include estimates and assumptions of management that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified between line items to conform to the current presentation. The reclassifications did not affect the Company’s previously reported consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, statements of cash flows or statements of changes in shareholders’ equity.

(c)
Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in Note 2 of the 2020 Form 10-K.

(d)
Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the treasury stock method, by dividing the net earnings (loss) attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each of the periods presented. Contingently issuable shares (including shares held in escrow) are not considered outstanding common shares and consequently are not included in the loss per share calculation. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock method by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential common shares. The Company has three categories of potentially dilutive common share equivalents: restricted stock units, stock options and warrants. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had 5,625,661 options, 352,936 restricted stock units and 3,591,975 warrants outstanding. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had 5,782,599 options, 688,507 restricted stock units and 2,520,794 warrants outstanding.

(Amounts Expressed in United States Dollars, Except Where Stated Otherwise)

 

1. Overview and Basis of Presentation (Continued)

 

In order to determine diluted earnings per share, it is assumed that any proceeds from the exercise of dilutive unvested restricted stock units, stock options, and warrants would be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period. Under the treasury stock method, the diluted earnings per share calculation excludes any potential conversion of stock options and convertible debt that would increase earnings per share or decrease loss per share. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the computation of diluted earnings per share included 3,022,973 options, 223,661 restricted stock units and 1,103,132 warrants. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the computation of diluted earnings per share included 3,041,286 options, 196,043 restricted stock units and 1,114,574 warrants. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the computation of diluted earnings per share included 1,928,947 options, 151,458 restricted stock units and 141,482 warrants. No potentially dilutive common share equivalents were included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 because their impact was anti-dilutive.

(e)
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
(i)
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Updated ("ASU") 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on January 1, 2021. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
(ii)
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2020-01”), which is intended to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. The Company adopted ASU 2020-01 on January 1, 2021. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
(c)
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
(i)
On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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, to improve financial reporting associated with accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
(b)
Coronavirus Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized coronavirus disease 2019 (together with its variants, “COVID-19”) as a pandemic. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the U.S. and other countries across the world, and the duration and severity of its effects are currently unknown. The Company continues to implement and evaluate actions to strengthen its financial position and support the continuity of its business and operations.

The Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Such estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, the Company’s goodwill; long-lived assets and intangible assets; operating lease right of use assets and operating lease liabilities; valuation of deferred income taxes; the allowance for doubtful accounts; assessment of the Company’s lease and non-lease contract expenses; and measurement of compensation cost for bonus and other compensation plans. While the Company’s revenue, gross profit and operating income were not impacted during the first nine months of 2021, the uncertain nature of the spread of COVID-19 and the uncertainty of the impact of nationwide vaccine programs may impact the Company’s business operations for reasons including the potential quarantine of the Company’s employees or those of its supply chain partners, and the Company’s continued designation as an “essential” business in states where the Company does business that currently or in the future impose restrictions on its business operations.

4. ACQUISITIONS

 

The Company has determined that the below acquisitions are business combinations under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, Business Combinations. They are accounted for by applying the acquisition method, whereby the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are recorded at their fair values with any excess of the aggregate consideration over the fair values of the identifiable net assets allocated to goodwill. Operating results have been included in these consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. Supplemental pro forma financial information has not been presented as the impact was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The goodwill recorded primarily includes the expected synergies resulting from combining the operations of the acquired entity with those of the Company.

 

(a)
2021 Business Acquisitions

 

The Company completed a preliminary allocation of the purchase price of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The preliminary valuation was based on management’s estimates and assumptions which are subject to change within the purchase price allocation 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.

6. INVESTMENTS

 

 

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company held various equity interests in privately held cannabis companies as well as investments in convertible notes that had a combined fair value of $50,627,826 and $40,794,806 as of each period end, respectively. The Company measures its investments that do not have readily determinable fair value at cost minus impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The Company performs an assessment on a quarterly basis to determine whether triggering events for impairment exist and to identify any observable price changes.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded fair value gains (losses) of $(4,074,934) and $14,604,387, respectively and $7,284,213 and $6,717,178, respectively.

 

(a) Equity Investments

 

On January 15, 2021, the Company sold approximately half of its equity interest in a privately held entity for $18,112,500 in cash. Subsequently, the privately held entity became publicly traded. As of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, Green Thumb recorded a loss on the fair value of the equity interest of $3,948,841 and a gain of $9,568,348, respectively, based on the trading price of the securities. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the fair value of the equity interest was $28,705,037 and $37,249,189, respectively.

 

Separately, during the first half of 2021, the Company made an additional investment in a privately held entity in the amount of $12,335,635, recorded fair value adjustments of $4,110,378 and obtained representation on the entity's board of directors. Given Green Thumb's cumulative ownership interest and representation on the entity's board of directors, it was determined that the Company could exert significant influence over the entity. As of June 30, 2021, the Company reclassified its investment in the privately held entity to investment in associates on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets and began accounting for the investment as an equity method investment.

 

(b) Convertible Notes Receivable

 

During the first nine months of 2021, the Company made multiple investments in the form of convertible notes receivable in the amount of $15,417,500 and an investment in a note receivable without a conversion feature in the amount of $1,500,000. The interest on the convertible notes receivable range between 0.91% - 10% with terms between 15 months to three years. The interest on the note receivable without conversion feature is 3% annually with a 180 day term. The calculated fair values are recorded as a Level 3 fair value investment as of September 30, 2021 and include the initial investment cost and contractual interest of $207,500. See Note 14 - Fair Value Measurements for additional details.

 

Unrealized gains and (losses) recognized on equity investments held during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021and 2020 were $(4,140,268) and $14,596,174 and $8,134,213 and $8,117,178, respectively.

7. LEASES

 

 

(a)
Operating Leases

The Company has operating leases for certain Rise Dispensaries, and other retail dispensaries as well as many of the Company’s processing and cultivation facilities located throughout the U.S and operating leases for corporate office space in Illinois. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date.

All real estate leases are recorded on the balance sheet. Equipment and other non-real estate leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Lease agreements for some locations provide for rent escalations and renewal options. Certain real estate leases require payment for taxes, insurance and maintenance which are considered non-lease components. The Company accounts for real estate leases and the related fixed non-lease components together as a single component.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company must consider whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. Certain arrangements require significant judgment to determine if an asset is specified in the contract and if the Company directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 the company recorded operating lease expense of $8,732,600 and $24,760,298 compared to operating lease expense of $6,557,340 and $18,987,980 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

1 In connection with acquisitions completed in 2017 and 2019, the Company is required to make quarterly charitable contributions of $50,000 through October 2024 and $200,000 per year through May 2024, respectively. The net present value of these required payments has been recorded as a liability with interest rates ranging between 2.17% - 7.00%.

2 On May 22, 2019, the Company issued private placement debt in an original amount of $105,466,429 with an interest rate of 12.00%, maturing on May 22, 2023. The debt was issued at a discount, the carrying value of which was $9,045,187 and $10,511,335 as of April 30, 2021, just prior to repayment, and December 31, 2020, respectively.

3 The April 30, 2021 private placement debt was issued in an original amount of $216,734,258 with an interest rate of 7.00%, maturing on April 30, 2024. The debt was issued at a discount, the carrying value of which was $21,570,925 as of September 30, 2021.

4 Mortgage notes, in the original amount of $10,437,000 were issued by the Company in connection with various operating properties. These mortgage notes mature between August 20, 2025 and August 1, 2041 and were issued at a discount, the carrying value of which was $165,159 and $174,223, and are presented net of principal payments of $181,551 and $50,322 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(a)
April 30, 2021 Private Placement Financing

 

On April 30, 2021, the Company closed a $216,734,258 Senior Secured non-brokered private placement financing through the issuance of senior secured notes (the “April 30, 2021 Notes”). The Company used the proceeds to retire the Company’s existing $105,466,429, senior secured notes due May 22, 2023 (the "May 22, 2019 Notes") and the remaining proceeds for general working capital purposes as well as various growth initiatives. The Notes have a maturity date of April 30, 2024 and bear interest from the date of issue of 7.00% per annum, payable quarterly, with an option, at the discretion of the Company, to extend for an additional 12 months. The financing permits the Company to borrow an additional $33,265,742 over the next twelve months. The purchasers of the Notes also received 1,459,044 warrants (the “Warrants”) which allow the holder to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share at an exercise price of $32.68 per share, for a period of 60 months from the date of issue.

 

The refinancing of the Notes involved multiple lenders who were considered members of a loan syndicate. In determining whether the refinancing of the Notes should be accounted for as a debt extinguishment or a debt modification, the Company considered whether, prior to and following the refinancing, creditors remained the same or changed, and whether the changes in debt terms were substantial. A change in the terms of the Notes was considered to be substantial if the present value of the remaining cash flows under the April 30, 2021 Notes were at least 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the May 22, 2019 Notes (commonly referred to as the “10% Test”). The Company performed a separate 10% Test for each individual lender participating in the loan syndication. Of the 30 lenders who participated in the original financing of the May 22, 2019 Notes, 18 were accounted for as a debt extinguishment, while 12 were treated as a modification. Additionally, 9 new lenders joined the loan syndicate.

 

On October 15, 2021, the Company amended the Notes Purchase Agreement, for the purposes of borrowing an additional $33.2 million. The additional borrowings have terms consistent with the April 30, 2021 Notes and increase the total amount borrowed to $250 million. The Company intends to use the additional proceeds for general working capital purposes as well as various growth initiatives. The purchasers of the Notes received an additional 243,304 warrants which allow the holder to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share at an exercise price of $30.02 per share, for a period of 60 months from the date of issue.

10. SHARE CAPITAL

 

Common shares, which include the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares, Multiple Voting Shares and Super Voting Shares, are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of common shares are recognized as a deduction from equity. The proceeds from the exercise of stock options or warrants together with amounts previously recorded in reserves over the applicable vesting periods are recorded as share capital. Income tax relating to transaction costs of an equity transaction is accounted for in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes.

(a)
Authorized

The Company has the following classes of share capital, with each class having no par value:

(i)
Subordinate Voting Shares

The holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares are entitled to receive dividends which may be declared from time to time and are entitled to one vote per share at meetings of the Company’s shareholders. All Subordinate Voting Shares are ranked equally with regard to the Company’s residual assets. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par value Subordinate Voting Shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the shareholders of the Company converted 635 Multiple Voting Shares into 63,500 Subordinate Voting Shares and 17,000 Super Voting Shares into 1,700,000 Subordinate Voting Shares.

(ii)
Multiple Voting Shares

Each Multiple Voting Share is entitled to 100 votes per share at shareholder meetings of the Company and is exchangeable for 100 Subordinate Voting Shares. At September 30, 2021, the Company had 39,654 issued and outstanding Multiple Voting Shares, which convert into 3,965,400 Subordinate Voting Shares. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Multiple Voting Shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the shareholders of the Company converted 635 Multiple Voting Shares into 63,500 Subordinate Voting Shares.

(iii)
Super Voting Shares

Each Super Voting Share is entitled to 1,000 votes per share at shareholder meetings of the Company and is exchangeable for 100 Subordinate Voting Shares or one Multiple Voting Share. At September 30, 2021, the Company had 295,031 issued and outstanding Super Voting Shares which convert into 29,503,100 Subordinate Voting Shares. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Super Voting Shares. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the shareholders of the Company converted 17,000 Super Voting Shares into 1,700,000 Subordinate Voting Shares.

(i)
Issuance of Shares Under Business Combinations and Investments

GTI New Jersey, LLC

In connection with the Company’s April 23, 2019 acquisition of the non-controlling interest in GTI New Jersey, LLC, the Company agreed to award the previous minority shareholders of the entity up to $3,000,000 in Subordinate Voting Shares. On May 7, 2020, the Company received approval from the New Jersey Department of Health to begin buildout of an additional retail dispensary. As of that date, the Company recorded a current obligation of $2,000,000 representing the maximum value of the shares to be issuable to the former minority shareholders of GTI New Jersey, LLC. On March 15, 2021 and September 16, 2021, retail dispensaries located in Paramus, New Jersey and Bloomfield, New Jersey were successfully opened. As a result, the Company issued 30,414 and 36,947 Subordinate Voting Shares to the former minority shareholders of GTI New Jersey, LLC, with fair values of $1,038,307 and $939,538 on the date of issuance, respectfully. As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company carried an obligation of $0 and $2,000,000, respectively, associated with the retail dispensary agreement with the former minority shareholders of GTI New Jersey, LLC.

See also Note 4 - Acquisitions for additional details.

(ii)
Distribution of Contingent Consideration

Integral Associates, LLC

In connection with the Company’s 2019 acquisition of Integral Associates, LLC, the purchase agreement included contingent consideration which was dependent upon the awarding of conditional and final dispensary operating licenses. On March 22, 2021, the Company issued 412,744 Subordinate Voting Shares to the former owners of Integral Associates, LLC in connection with the awarding of a final retail dispensary license located in Pasadena, California. The shares had a fair value of $12,672,681 at the date of issuance and resulted in a loss of $8,172,681 which was recorded in other income (expense) in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations. In addition, the Company determined that the likelihood that the Company will obtain retail dispensary operating licenses in either West Hollywood or Culver City, California, under commercially reasonable terms was remote. Consequently, the Company remeasured the contingent liability associated with these milestones which resulted in a reduction to the contingent liability of $7,750,000 with a corresponding increase to other income (expense) in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations.

As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of Integral Associates, LLC, which was valued using a probability weighting of the potential payouts, was $14,850,000 and $27,100,000, respectively of which $4,950,000, in each period, was recorded as a non-current liability.

Dharma Pharmaceuticals, LLC

 

In connection with the Company's 2021 acquisition of Dharma Pharmaceuticals, LLC ("Dharma"), the purchase agreement included contingent consideration of up to $65.0 million in Subordinate Voting Shares of Green Thumb, which was dependent upon the successful opening of up to 5 retail dispensaries in the Virginia area within the first three years following the signing of the agreement and the legal sale of adult use cannabis in a retail dispensary by January 1, 2025. On August 16, 2021, the Company issued 199,993 Subordinate Voting Shares to the former owners of Dharma in connection with the successful opening of one retail dispensary in Virginia. The shares had a fair value of $5,949,078 at the date of issuance.

 

As of September 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of Dharma, which was valued based on a probability weighting of the potential payments, was $45,872,665, of which $19,883,434 was included as a current liability on the Company's unaudited interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Distribution of Deferred Shares

For Success Holding Company

As part of the consideration exchanged in the Company’s 2019 acquisition of For Success Holding Company, deferred shares were held back for a period of twenty-four months from the close of the transaction. On February 22, 2021, the Company issued 146,315 Subordinate Voting Shares with a value of $1,825,597 in connection with the Company’s 2019 acquisition of For Success Holding Company. The issuance of the deferred shares represented the final payout to the former owners of For Success Holding Company and resulted in the cancelation of 780 shares valued at $9,732 representing certain reimbursable costs incurred by the Company.

See also Note 4 - Acquisitions for additional details.

(iv) Issuance of Registered Shares Pursuant to S-1

On February 8, 2021, the SEC declared effective the Company’s Registration Statement No. 333-248213 on Form S-1 filed on February 2, 2021. Shortly thereafter, the Company received an offer from a single institutional investor to purchase 3,122,074 of the Subordinate Voting Shares registered on the Form S-1 at a price of $32.03 per share for a total of $100,000,030. The transaction closed on February 9, 2021. On February 23, 2021, the Company accepted additional offers to purchase a total of 1,571,917 Subordinate Voting Shares at a price of $35.50 per share, for a total of $55,803,054. The Company is using the net proceeds from the sale of securities for general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, working capital and general and administrative expenses. The Company also is using a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in business and products that are complimentary to the Company’s own businesses and products. Additionally, the Company incurred legal, audit and other professional fees of $304,944 associated the issuance of the registered shares. Such fees have been recorded within contributed surplus (deficit) within the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity.

(d)
Stock-Based Compensation

The Company operates equity settled stock-based remuneration plans for its eligible directors, officers, employees and consultants. All goods and services received in exchange for the grant of any stock-based payments are measured at their fair value unless the fair value cannot be estimated reliably. If the Company cannot estimate reliably the fair value of the goods and services received, the Company measures their value indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. For transactions with employees and others providing similar services, the Company measures the fair value of the services by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. Equity settled stock-based payments under stock-based payment plans are ultimately recognized as an expense in profit or loss with a corresponding credit to equity.

In June 2018, the Company established the Green Thumb Industries Inc. 2018 Stock and Incentive Plan, which was amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto (as amended, the “Plan”). The maximum number of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and options issued under the Plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding shares on an as-converted basis.

10. SHARE CAPITAL (Continued)

 

(c) Stock-Based Compensation (Continued)

The Company recognizes compensation expense for RSUs and options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Non-market vesting conditions are included in the assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from the previous estimate. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period with no adjustment to prior periods for expense previously recognized.

Option and RSU grants generally vest over three years, and options typically have a life of five or ten years. Option grants are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors with the option price set at no less than 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of grant.

The Company has computed its provision for income taxes under the discrete method which treats the year-to-date period as if it were the annual period and determines the income tax expense or benefit on that basis. The discrete method is applied when application of the estimated annual effective tax rate is impractical because it is not possible to reliably estimate the annual effective tax rate. We believe that, at this time, the use of this discrete method is more appropriate than the annual effective tax rate method as the estimated annual effective tax rate method is not reliable due to the high degree of uncertainty in estimating annual pre-tax income due to the early growth stage of the business.

Due to its cannabis operations, the Company is subject to the limitations of Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 280E under which the Company is only allowed to deduct expenses directly related to sales of product. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC Section 280E.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 varies widely from the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to the reduction in non deductible expenses as a proportion of total expenses in the current year. The Company incurs expenses that are not deductible due to IRC Section 280E limitations which results in significant income tax expense.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and Canada. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s uncertain tax positions and determining the provision for income taxes. The Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits were approximately $19.2 million and $10.3 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, recorded within Deferred Income Taxes.

The federal statute of limitation remains open for the 2018 tax year to the present. The state income tax returns generally remain open for the 2017 tax year through the present. Net operating losses arising prior to these years are also open to examination if and when utilized.

Taxes paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were $109,702,550 and $37,820,228, respectively.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

 

 

The Company is subject to lawsuits, investigations and other claims related to employment, commercial and other matters that arise out of operations in the normal course of business. Periodically, the Company reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses the potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable, and the amount can be reliably estimated, such amount is recognized in other liabilities.

Contingent liabilities are measured at management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period and are discounted to present value where the effect is material. The Company performs evaluations to identify contingent liabilities for contracts. Contingent consideration is measured upon acquisition and is estimated using probability weighting of potential payouts. Subsequent changes in the estimated contingent consideration from the final purchase price allocation are recognized in the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(a)
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, sanctions, restrictions on its operations, or losses of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations in that specific state or local jurisdiction. While management believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulations at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, cannabis and other regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties, or restrictions in the future.

(b)
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. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s consolidated operations. 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.

(c)
Construction Commitments

As of September 30, 2021, the Company held approximately $51,404,000 of open construction commitments to contractors on work being performed.

14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

 

The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities that are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers all related factors of the asset by market participants in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels, and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, warrant liability, and contingent consideration payable.

For the Company's long-term notes payable (which consist of charitable contributions, private placement debt and mortgage notes), for which there were no quoted market prices or active trading markets, it was not practicable to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments. The carrying amount of notes payable at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $206,538,072 and $99,054,979, which includes $777,275 and $341,983, respectively, of short-term debt due within one year.

Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs to fair value measurements. The fair values of the Company’s financial instruments associated with each of the three levels of the hierarchy are:

On September 1, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining minority interest in a retail dispensary for $850,000 in cash and the issuance of 136,075 shares of Green Thumb which had a fair value of $4,070,003, based on the closing price of Green Thumb’s Subordinate Voting Shares as traded on the CSE on the date of the transaction. As a result, the remaining equity associated with the non controlling interest was closed to share capital of Green Thumb as of September 1, 2021. On December 31, 2020, the MSA for Chesapeake Alternatives, LLC was amended and restated to make GTI Maryland, LLC, the sole member of the entity. As a result, the remaining equity associated with the non controlling interest was closed to share capital of Green Thumb as of December 31, 2020.

16. SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Company operates in two segments: the cultivation, production and sale of cannabis products to retail stores (“Consumer Packaged Goods”) and retailing of cannabis to patients and consumers (“Retail”). The Company does not allocate operating expenses to these business units, nor does it allocate specific assets. Additionally, the Chief Operating Decision Maker does not review total assets or net income (loss) by segments; therefore, such information is not presented below.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

This management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of Green Thumb Industries Inc. (the “Company” or “Green Thumb”) is for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. It is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2021 and the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 18, 2021 (the “Original 2020 Form 10-K”) and the accompanying notes for each respective period, as amended by Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on March 19, 2021, Amendment No. 2 on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on April 30, 2021 (the “Second Amendment”) and Amendment No. 3 on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on July 14, 2021. The Original 2020 Form 10-K as so amended is referred to herein as (the2020 Form 10-K”). The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Financial information presented in this MD&A is presented in United States dollars (“$” or “US$”), unless otherwise indicated.

This MD&A contains certain “forward-looking statements” and certain “forward-looking information” as defined under applicable United States securities laws. Please refer to the discussion of forward-looking statements and information set out under the heading “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” identified in the ‘‘Risks and Uncertainties’’ section of this MD&A and in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.” As a result of many factors, the Company’s actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements and information.

COVID-19 Considerations

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized coronavirus disease 2019 (together with its variants “COVID-19”) as a pandemic. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the U.S. and other countries across the world, and the duration and severity of its effects and those of its variants are currently unknown. The Company continues to implement and evaluate actions to strengthen its financial position and support the continuity of its business and operations in the face of this pandemic and other events.

The Company’s priorities during the COVID-19 pandemic are protecting the health and safety of its employees and its customers, following the recommended actions of government and health authorities. In the future, the pandemic may cause reduced demand for the Company’s products and services if, for example, the pandemic results in a recessionary economic environment or potential new restrictions on business operations or the movement of individuals. However, given the Company’s operations have to date been deemed “essential” services in the states in which it does business, the Company believes that there will continue to be strong demand for Green Thumb products.

Operations of the Company are currently ongoing as the cultivation, processing and sale of cannabis products is currently considered an “essential” business by all states in which the Company operates with respect to all customers. The Company’s ability to continue to operate without any significant negative operational impact from the COVID-19 pandemic and any of its variants will in part depend on the Company’s ability to protect its employees, customers and supply chain and its continued designation as “essential” in states where it does business that currently or in the future impose restrictions on business operations.

The pandemic has not materially impacted the Company’s business operations or liquidity position to date. The Company continues to generate operating cash flows to meet its short-term liquidity needs. In all locations where applicable regulations limiting in-store retail activity have been enacted by governmental authorities, the Company has expanded consumer delivery options and curbside pickup to help further protect the health and safety of Green Thumb employees and customers.

 

 

33


 

During the first nine months of 2021 the Company’s revenue, gross profit and operating income were not negatively impacted by COVID-19 and the Company generally maintained the consistency of its operations. However, the uncertain nature of the spread of COVID-19 and its variants may impact its business operations for reasons including the potential quarantine of Green Thumb employees or those of its supply chain partners and its continued designation as “essential” in states where it does business that currently or in the future impose restrictions on business operations.

 

For additional information on risk factors related to the pandemic or other risks that could impact Green Thumb’s results, please refer to “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY

Established in 2014 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, Green Thumb, a national cannabis consumer packaged goods company and retailer promotes well-being through the power of cannabis while being committed to community and sustainable profitable growth. As of September 30, 2021, Green Thumb has revenue in 14 U.S. markets, employs approximately 3,400 people and serves millions of patients and customers annually.

Green Thumb’s core business is manufacturing, distributing and marketing a portfolio of owned cannabis consumer packaged goods brands (which we refer to as our Consumer Packaged Goods business), including Beboe, Dogwalkers, Dr. Solomon’s, Good Green, incredibles and Rythm. The Company distributes and markets these products primarily to third-party licensed retail cannabis stores across the United States as well as to Green Thumb-owned retail stores (which we refer to as our Retail business).

The Company’s Consumer Packaged Goods portfolio is primarily generated from plant material that Green Thumb grows and processes itself, which we use to produce our consumer packaged goods in 16 manufacturing facilities. This portfolio consists of stock keeping units (“SKUs”) across a range of cannabis product categories, including flower, pre-rolls, concentrates, vape, capsules, tinctures, edibles, topicals and other cannabis-related products (none of which product categories are individually material to the Company). These Consumer Packaged Goods products are sold in retail locations throughout the U.S. including at Green Thumb’s own Rise and other dispensaries.

Green Thumb owns and operates a national cannabis retail chain called Risewhich are relationship-centric retail experiences aimed to deliver a superior level of customer service through high-engagement consumer interaction, a consultative, transparent and education-forward selling approach and a consistently available assortment of cannabis products. In addition, Green Thumb owns stores under other names, primarily where we co-own the stores or naming is subject to licensing or similar restrictions. The income from Green Thumb’s retail stores is primarily from the sale of cannabis-related products, which includes the sale of Green Thumb produced products as well as those produced by third parties, with an immaterial (under 10%) portion of this income resulting from the sale of other merchandise (such as t-shirts and accessories for cannabis use). The Rise stores currently are located in nine of the states in which we operate (including Nevada and Virginia). As of September 30, 2021, the Company had 65 open and operating retail locations. The Company’s new store opening plans will remain fluid depending on market conditions, obtaining local licensing, construction and other permissions and subject to the Company’s capital allocation plans and the evolving situation with respect to the COVID-19 as described above and under the heading “Liquidity, Financing Activities During the Period, and Capital Resources” below.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020

Revenues, net of Discounts

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was $233,676,881, up 49% from $157,103,841 for the three months ended September 30, 2020; driven by contributions from both Retail and Consumer Packaged Goods, largely due to continued growth in Illinois and Pennsylvania. Key performance drivers for the Retail business for the quarter are: increased store traffic to Green Thumb’s open and operating retail stores, particularly in Illinois, and Pennsylvania, and new store openings including acquired stores, particularly in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The Company generated revenue from 65 Retail locations during the quarter compared to 48 in the same quarter of the prior year.

35


 

The key driver for the Consumer Packaged Goods increase in revenues was the sale of Green Thumb’s branded product portfolio to third-party retailers through the Company’s existing Consumer Packaged Goods cultivation and processing facilities in Illinois, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey, Ohio and Connecticut due to increased scale and efficiency. The Company also added one cultivation and processing facility in Virginia through the acquisition of Dharma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Dharma") and received a full quarters worth of operations from its cultivation and processing facility added through the June 1, 2021 acquisition of Liberty Compassion, Inc. ("Liberty").

Drivers of Results of Operations

Revenue

The Company derives its revenue from two revenue streams: a Consumer Packaged Goods business in which it manufactures, sells and distributes its portfolio of Consumer Packaged Goods brands including Beboe, Dogwalkers, Dr. Solomon’s, Good Green incredibles, and Rythm, primarily to third-party Retail customers; and a Retail business in which it sells finished goods sourced primarily from third-party cannabis manufacturers in addition to the Company’s own Consumer Packaged Goods products direct to the end consumer in its retail stores, as well as direct-to-consumer delivery where applicable by state law.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, revenue was contributed from Consumer Packaged Goods and Retail sales across California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is revenue less cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold includes the costs directly attributable to product sales and includes amounts paid for finished goods, such as flower, edibles, and concentrates, as well as packaging and other supplies, fees for services and processing, and allocated overhead which includes allocations of rent, utilities and related costs. Cannabis costs are affected by various state regulations that limit the sourcing and procurement of cannabis product, which may create fluctuations in gross profit over comparative periods as the regulatory environment changes. Gross margin measures our gross profit as a percentage of revenue.

 

During the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021, the Company continued to be focused on creating sustainable, profitable growth of the Company’s business while pursuing expansion. Green Thumb expects to continue its growth strategy for the foreseeable future as the Company expands its Consumer Packaged Goods and Retail footprint within its current markets with acquisitions and partnerships, and scales resources into new markets.

Total Expenses

Total expenses other than the cost of goods sold consist of selling costs to support customer relationships and marketing and branding activities. It also includes a significant investment in the corporate infrastructure required to support the Company’s ongoing business.

Retail selling costs generally correlate to revenue. As new locations begin operations, these locations generally experience higher selling costs as a percentage of revenue compared to more established locations, which experience a more constant rate of selling costs. As a percentage of sales, the Company expects selling costs to remain constant in the more established locations and increase in the newer locations as business continues to grow.

General and administrative expenses also include costs incurred at the Company’s corporate offices, primarily related to back office personnel costs, including salaries, incentive compensation, benefits, stock-based compensation and other professional service costs. The Company expects to continue to invest considerably in this area to support aggressive expansion plans and to support the business by attracting and retaining top-tier talent. Furthermore, the Company anticipates an increase in stock-based compensation expenses related to recruiting and hiring talent, along with legal and professional fees associated with being a publicly traded company in Canada and registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates and, consequently, income tax expense is a function of the allocation of taxable income by jurisdiction and the various activities that impact the timing of taxable events. As the Company operates in the federally illegal cannabis industry, it is subject to the limitations of Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Section 280E under which taxpayers are only allowed to deduct expenses directly related to sales of product. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC Section 280E and a higher effective tax rate than most industries. Therefore, the effective tax rate can be highly variable and may not necessarily correlate to pre-tax income or loss.

Liquidity, Financing Activities During the Period, and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020 the Company had total current liabilities of $165,301,783 and $119,288,435, respectively, and cash and cash equivalents of $285,792,378 and $83,757,785, respectively to meet its current obligations. The Company had working capital of $255,449,456 as of September 30, 2021, an increase of $190,793,886 as compared to December 31, 2020. This increase in working capital was primarily driven by the $155,498,140 sale of registered Subordinate Voting Shares pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 as well as the proceeds from issuance of notes of $175,500,047, including the the Company's April 30, 2021 Notes, partially offset by principal repayments of notes and mortgages of $64,702,508 including the May 22, 2019 Notes.

In the first nine months of 2021, Green Thumb generated revenue from all 14 of its markets: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia. The Company’s Consumer Packaged Goods revenue grew approximately 3%, net of discounts, during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by organic growth across the Company’s Consumer Packaged Goods Business. The Company’s Retail revenue, net of discounts, increased 7% during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by and increased transaction activity across the Company’s 65 Retail store footprint, particularly in Illinois and Pennsylvania, as well as acquired stores in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

The Company is an early-stage growth company, generating cash from revenues deploying its capital reserves to acquire and develop assets capable of producing additional revenues and earnings over both the immediate and near term. Capital reserves are primarily being utilized for capital expenditures, facility improvements, strategic investment opportunities, product development and marketing, as well as customer, supplier, and investor and industry relations.

While our revenue, gross profit and operating income were not materially impacted by COVID-19 and we maintained the consistency of our operations during the first nine months of 2021, the uncertain nature of the spread of COVID-19 may impact our business operations for reasons including the potential quarantine of our employees or those of our supply chain partners. Our ability to continue to operate without any significant negative operational impact from the COVID-19 pandemic will in part depend on our ability to protect our employees, customers and supply chain and our continued designation as an “essential” business in states where we do business that currently or in the future impose restrictions on business operations. The Company takes a cautious approach in allocating its capital to maximize its returns while ensuring appropriate liquidity. Given the current uncertainty of the future economic environment, the Company has taken additional measures in monitoring and deploying its capital to minimize the negative impact on its current operations and expansion plans.
