USE OF NAMES AND CURRENCY
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Company,” or “Planet 13” refer to Planet 13 Holdings Inc. together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Unless otherwise indicated, all references to “$,” “US$” or “USD” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to United States dollars, and all references to “C$” or “CAD” refer to Canadian dollars.
IMPLICATIONS OF BEING AN EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY
As a company with less than $1.07 billion in revenue during our most recently completed fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which we refer to as the “Securities Act,” as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the “JOBS Act.” As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other exemptions from requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These provisions include:
| · | Reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; |
|
|
|
| · | Exemptions from non-binding shareholder advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute; and |
|
|
|
| · | Exemption from auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting. |
We may take advantage of these exemptions for up to five years or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we had more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues as of the end of a fiscal year, if we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission the (“SEC”) or if we issued more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.
In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This provision allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of some accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act.

Readers are cautioned that forward-looking information and statements are not based on historical facts but instead are based on reasonable assumptions and estimates of our management at the time they were provided or made and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, as applicable, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking information and statements. Such factors include, among others our actual financial position and results of operations differing from management’s expectations; our business model; a lack of business diversification; increasing competition in the industry; public opinion and perception of the cannabis industry; expected significant costs and obligations; current reliance on limited jurisdictions; development of our business; access to capital; risks relating to the management of growth; risks inherent in an agricultural business; risks relating to energy costs; risks related to research and market development; risks related to breaches of security at our facilities; reliance on suppliers; risks relating to the concentrated voting control of the Company; risks related to our being a holding company; risks related to service providers withdrawing or suspending services under threat of prosecution; risks related to proprietary intellectual property and potential infringement by third parties; risks of litigation relating to intellectual property; negative clinical trial results; insurance related risks; risk of litigation generally; risks associated with cannabis products manufactured for human consumption, including potential product recalls; risks relating to being unable to attract and retain key personnel; risks relating to obtaining and retaining relevant licenses; risks relating to integration of acquired businesses; risks related to quantifying our target market; risks related to industry growth and consolidation; fraudulent activity by employees, contractors and consultants; cyber-security risks; conflicts of interest; risks related to reputational damage in certain circumstances; leased premises risks; risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic; U.S. regulatory landscape and enforcement related to cannabis, including political risks; heightened scrutiny by Canadian regulatory authorities; risks related to capital raising due to heightened regulatory scrutiny; risks related to tax liabilities; risks related to U.S. state and local law regulations; risks related to access to banks and credit card payment processors; risks related to potential violation of laws by banks and other financial institutions; ability and constraints on marketing products; risks related to lack of U.S. federal trademark and patent protection; risks related to the enforceability of contracts; the limited market for our securities; difficulty for U.S. holders of Common Shares to resell over the Canadian Securities Exchange ; price volatility of Common Shares; uncertainty regarding legal and regulatory status and changes; risks related to legislation and cannabis regulation in the states in which we operate or contemplate future operations; future sales by shareholders; no guarantee regarding use of available funds; currency fluctuations; risks related to entry into the U.S; and other factors beyond our control, as more particularly described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list is not exhaustive of all factors and assumptions which may have been used. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information and statements. The forward-looking information and statements contained herein are presented for the purposes of assisting readers in understanding our expected financial and operating performance and our plans and objectives and may not be appropriate for other purposes.
The forward-looking information and statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views and expectations as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update such forward-looking information and statements at a future time, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law.

PLANET 13 HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited, in United States Dollars, except share amounts) |
1. Nature of Operations |
Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (“Planet 13” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on April 26, 2002 and continued under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on September 24, 2019.
The Company is a vertically integrated cultivator and provider of cannabis and cannabis-infused products that is licensed under the laws of the States of Nevada, California, and Florida, and is a licensed retailer for cannabis and cannabis infused products in Illinois. The Company is licensed in these jurisdictions as follows: six Nevada cultivation licenses (three medical and three adult-use), six Nevada production licenses (three medical and three adult-use), three Nevada dispensary licenses (one medical and two adult-use), one Nevada distribution license, one California adult-use dispensary license, one California distribution license, one Florida Medical Marijuana Treatment Center license (unlimited medical dispensary, cultivation, and processing facilities), and one Illinois conditional adult-use dispensary license. On March 2, 2022, by way of acquisition and in addition to the licenses listed above, the Company added three California cultivation licenses (one medical and two adult-use), one California cultivation nursery license, one California distribution license, one California license for adult-use manufacture, and one pending California license for adult-use cultivation processing. On July 12, 2022, the California Department of Cannabis Control approved the Company’s cultivation processing license.
Planet 13 is a public company which is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the symbol PLTH and on the OTCQX exchange under the symbol “PLNHF”.
The Company’s registered office is located at 595 Howe Street, 10th Floor, Vancouver, BC V6C 2T5 and the head office address is 2548 W. Desert Inn Road, Las Vegas, NV 89109.
While cannabis and CBD-infused products are legal under the laws of several U.S. states (with varying restrictions applicable), the United States Federal Controlled Substances Act classifies all “marijuana” as a Schedule I drug, whether for medical or recreational use. Under U.S. federal law, a Schedule I drug or substance has a high potential for abuse, no accepted medical use in the United States, and a lack of safety for use under medical supervision.
The federal government currently is prohibited from prosecuting businesses that operate in compliance with applicable state and local medical cannabis laws and regulations; however, this does not protect adult use cannabis. In addition, if the federal government changes this position, it would be financially detrimental to the Company.
2. Basis of Presentation |
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for all periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the audited annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted or condensed. The information included in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due.
Failure to arrange adequate financing on acceptable terms and/or achieve profitability may have an adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, cash flows and prospects of the Company. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments to assets or liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is also the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ functional currency.
These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on November 10, 2022.

ii) | Functional currency |
The Company’s functional currency is the Unites States dollar (“USD”), and management has chosen to present these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in USD. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries is USD. All amounts are presented in USD values unless otherwise stated.
Canadian currency transactions are translated into USD at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars (“CAD”) are translated to USD at the foreign exchange rate applicable at the end of each reporting period.
Realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in CAD are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

iii) | Emerging growth company |
The Company is an “Emerging Growth Company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it has taken advantage of certain exemptions that are not applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not has a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial reporting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public and private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
iv) | Business Combinations and Goodwill |
The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including contingent assets and liabilities, at their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. Any excess of the purchase consideration over the net fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. The costs of business acquisitions, including fees for accounting, legal, professional consulting and valuation specialists, are expensed as incurred within general and administrative expenses. Purchase price allocations may be preliminary and, during the measurement period not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, changes in assumptions and estimates that result in adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded in the period the adjustments are determined.
The estimated fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities are determined primarily using a discounted cash flow approach, with estimated cash flows discounted at a rate that the Company believes a market participant would determine to be commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the asset and related estimated cash flow streams.
3. Inventory |
Finished goods inventory consists of dried cannabis, concentrates, edibles, and other products that are complete and available for sale (both internally generated inventory and third-party products purchased in the wholesale market). Work in process inventory consists of cannabis after harvest, in the processing stage. Packaging and miscellaneous consist of consumables for use in the transformation of biological assets and other inventory used in production of finished goods. The Company’s inventory is comprised of:

7. Leases |
The Company’s lease agreements are for cultivation, manufacturing, retail office premises and for vehicles. The property lease terms range between 7 years and 21 years depending on the facility and are subject to an average of 2 renewal periods of equal length as the original lease. Leases for vehicles are typically between 4 years and 6 years with no renewal terms. Certain leases include escalation clauses or payment of executory costs such as property taxes, utilities, or insurance and maintenance. Rent expense for leases with escalation clauses is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Fair values
The Company complies with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. Financial instruments recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the observability of significant inputs used in making the measurements. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market inputs whenever such inputs exist. A financial instrument is classified to the lowest level of the hierarchy for which a significant input has been considered in measuring fair value.

15. Related Party Transactions and Balances |
Related party transactions are summarized as follows:
a) Building Lease
The Company is the sub-lessee of approximately 2,000 square feet of office space and purchases certain printed marketing collateral and stationery items from a company previously owned by one of the Company’s Co-CEOs. Amounts paid for rent for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 equaled $6,010 and $16,027, respectively. Amounts paid for printed marketing collateral and stationery items to the same company were $183,914 and $382,264 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The Company leased a cultivation facility from an entity owned by the Company’s Co-CEOs. Rent paid for this facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 equaled $nil and $301,894, respectively. On April 30, 2021, the Company’s Co-CEOs sold this building to an arm’s length third party who assumed the lease.
(b) Other
A company previously owned by one of the Company’s executives pays the Company for storage space. Amounts paid to the Company for storage space equaled $nil and $122,447 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and is recorded in other income.
21 |
Table of Contents |
PLANET 13 HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited, in United States Dollars, except share amounts) |
16. Commitments and Contingencies |
(a) Construction Commitments
The Company had $1,509,641 of outstanding construction commitments as of September 30, 2022.
(b) Contingencies
The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulations. Failure to comply with one or more of those regulations could result in fines, restrictions on its operations, or losses of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations. While management of the Company believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulations at September 30, 2022, medical and adult use cannabis 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.
(c) 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, 2022, and December 31, 2021, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s 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.
(d) Operating Licenses
Although the possession, cultivation, and distribution of marijuana for medical and adult use is permitted in Nevada and California, marijuana is a Schedule-I controlled substance and its use remains a violation of federal law. Since federal law criminalizing the use of marijuana pre-empts state laws that legalize its use, strict enforcement of federal law regarding marijuana would likely result in the Company’s inability to proceed with our business plans. In addition, the Company’s assets, including real property, cash, equipment, and other goods, could be subject to asset forfeiture because marijuana is still federally illegal.
17. Risks |
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a third party might fail to discharge its obligations under the terms of a financial instrument. Credit risk arises from cash with banks and financial institutions. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk arising from these financial instruments. The Company limits credit risk by entering into business arrangements with high credit-quality counterparties.
The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable and maintains an allowance for credit losses at an amount sufficient to absorb losses inherent in the existing accounts receivable portfolio as of the reporting dates based on the estimate of expected net credit losses.
Concentration risk
The Company operates exclusively in Southern Nevada and Southern California. Should economic conditions deteriorate within that region, its results of operations and financial position would be negatively impacted.
Banking risk
Notwithstanding that a majority of states have legalized medical marijuana, there has been no change in US federal banking laws related to the deposit and holding of funds derived from activities related to the marijuana industry. Given that US federal law provides that the production and possession of cannabis is illegal, there is a strong argument that banks cannot accept or deposit funds from businesses involved with the marijuana industry. Consequently, businesses involved in the marijuana industry often have difficulty accessing the US banking system and traditional financing sources. The inability to open bank accounts with certain institutions may make it difficult to operate the business of the Company and leave the Company’s cash holdings vulnerable.
22 |
Table of Contents |
PLANET 13 HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited, in United States Dollars, except share amounts) |
Asset forfeiture risk
Because the cannabis industry remains illegal under US federal law, any property owned by participants in the cannabis industry which are either used in the course of conducting such business, or are the proceeds of such business, could be subject to seizure by law enforcement and subsequent civil asset forfeiture. Even if the owner of the property was never charged with a crime, the property in question could still be seized and subject to an administrative proceeding by which with minimal due process, it could be subject to forfeiture.
Currency rate risk
As at September 30, 2022, a portion of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities held in Canadian dollars consist of cash of $311,998 (2021 - $1,621,021). The Company’s objective in managing its foreign currency risk is to minimize its net exposure to foreign currency cash flows by transacting, to the greatest extent possible, with third parties in the functional currency. The Company is exposed to currency rate risk in other comprehensive income, relating to foreign subsidiaries which operate in a foreign currency. The Company does not currently use foreign exchange contracts to hedge its exposure of its foreign currency cash flows as management has determined that this risk is not significant at this point in time.

19. COVID-19 |
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. The outbreak of this contagious disease and its subsequent variants, along with the related adverse public health developments, have negatively affected workforces, economies, and financial markets on a global scale. Currently, the Company is closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business and it is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or results of operations.
20. Next Green Wave Acquisition |
On March 2, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed a business combination acquisition of NGW. The Company entered into an arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with NGW on December 20, 2021 pursuant to which Planet 13 agreed to acquire (the “Arrangement”) all of the issued and outstanding common shares of NGW (the “NGW Shares”) pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Arrangement was approved by the holders of NGW Shares (the “NGW Shareholders”) at a special meeting of NGW Shareholders held on February 25, 2022 and approved by the Supreme Court of British Columbia on March 1, 2022.
Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, on March 2, 2022, the Company acquired all of the NGW Shares for a total consideration of 21,361,002 common shares of the Company and NGW then amalgamated with Planet 13. The NGW Shareholders received 0.1145 of one Planet 13 Share (the “Exchange Ratio”) and a nominal cash payment of C$0.0001 for each NGW Share held immediately prior to the Effective Time. As a result, 21,361,002 Planet 13 Shares and $14,788 in cash were issued in exchange for the NGW Shares. In addition, the number of Planet 13 Shares issued to any person pursuant to the Arrangement was rounded down to the nearest whole Planet 13 Share, with a cash consideration paid in lieu of the issuance of such fractional Planet 13 Share of C$3.36 per share.

PLANET 13 HOLDINGS INC. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited, in United States Dollars, except share amounts) |
Based upon the Exchange Ratio, all NGW options to acquire NGW Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time were also exchanged for Planet 13 options that will entitle the holders to receive, upon exercise thereof, Planet 13 Shares. As a result, the Company issued 1,106,925 options in exchange for the NGW options.
The NGW acquisition was accounted for as a stock purchase acquisition as NGW was deemed to be a business under ASC 805 Business Combinations and the Company is in the process of obtaining a third-party purchase price allocation analysis related to this acquisition. In the interim, the following table summarizes the initial allocation of consideration exchanged to the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets acquired assumed:

The NGW cannabis licenses acquired have an indefinite life and as such will not be subject to amortization. The ultimate amount of goodwill and other intangible assets resulting from the third-party purchase price allocation analysis will be assessed for impairment on at least an annual basis. The Company does not expect that any of the goodwill of other identified intangible assets will be deductible for tax purposes.
21. Subsequent Events |
On October 4, 2022, we received notice from the Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board that our conditional distribution license had been transferred from our subsidiary MM Development Company, Inc. to the buyer, pursuant to an April 22, 2022 purchase and sale agreement. The transaction is pending further closing conditions before our receipt of the $125,000 escrowed funds. The license transfer and eventual closing will have no impact on our sales or ability to operate in Nevada.
On October 14, 2022, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Planet 13 Chicago, LLC, entered into a $2,500,000 real property purchase agreement for a proposed dispensing location in Waukegan, Illinois, for an approximately 8,000 square foot building on 1.9 acres, previously occupied by a financial institution tenant. The Company’s obligation to close on the transaction is conditioned upon obtaining local jurisdiction zoning and land-use approvals, completion of customary due diligence, and that the current non-occupying tenant terminate their lease at the property. On November 1, 2022, the Company provided notice of this site selection to the Illinois cannabis regulator.
On November 1, 2022, the Company issued 81,084 common shares on the vesting of RSUs. The Company did not receive any cash proceeds on the issuance.
On November 1, 2022, 32,417 previously issued RSUs expired unexercised.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of Planet 13 is for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. It is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes presented herein. Our 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 (“$”, “USD” or “US$”), 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 this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As a result of many factors, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements and information.
Overview of the Company
We are a multi-state cannabis operator with licenses to operate in Nevada, California, and Florida, and a conditional dispensing license in Illinois. We are headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, at our superstore dispensary located adjacent to the Las Vegas Strip. A detailed description of our corporate history and our business can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
As of September 30, 2022, we employed approximately 600 people and remain focused on providing our customers with the best products, best services, and an experiential shopping experience at our superstore-themed dispensaries, while expanding our products and sales through neighborhood stores. Each of our state operations is held in state-focused subsidiaries: (a) Newtonian Principles, Inc. for California licensed cannabis dispensing and distribution activities, (b) Next Green Wave, LLC for California licensed cannabis cultivation and production activities, (c) MM Development Company, Inc. for all licensed Nevada cannabis cultivation, production, distribution, and dispensing, (d) Planet 13 Florida, Inc. (“Planet 13 Florida”) which holds our Florida Medical Marijuana Treatment Center (“MMTC”) license, and (e) a 49% minority interest in Planet 13 Illinois, LLC (“Planet 13 Illinois”) which, as of July 22, 2022, holds a conditional Illinois social-equity justice impaired dispensing license. We have focused on our large-store dispensing stores as superstores which offer an experiential approach to our customers, including drones, robotics, 3-D mapping projection, cannabis-culture inspired social-media backdrops for customer interaction, customer facing production, one-on-one sales staffing and customer education, and other interactive marketing elements to differentiate from more traditional dispensing locations, which we refer to herein as “neighborhood stores”. Each of our cannabis facilities is state-licensed as an adult-use cannabis facility, a medical cannabis facility, or a dual-use facility allowing for both adult-use and medical cannabis licensed activity, as designated below in the state-by-state breakdown.
Nevada
As of September 30, 2022, we held the following licensed operations in Nevada: (a) one dual-licensed dispensary superstore adjacent to the Las Vegas Strip with 24,000 square feet of licensed dispensary (the “Planet 13 Las Vegas Superstore”), (b) one adult-use “neighborhood store” at 2,300 square feet of licensed dispensary (the “Medizin dispensary”), (c) three dual-licensed production facilities, one of which is co-located and customer-facing at the superstore in Las Vegas with 18,500 square feet of licensed production, (d) three dual-licensed cultivation facilities, one with approximately 16,100 square foot indoor cultivation facility under perpetual harvest cycle, a second with 45,000 square feet co-located with our production license at that facility, and a small-indoor rural site in Beatty, Nevada that is expandable up to 2,300,000 square feet of greenhouse located on 80-acres owned by us, also co-located with our production license at that facility, and (e) one cannabis distribution license.
At the Planet 13 Las Vegas Superstore, we also offer ancillary services to our customers, including a restaurant with a liquor license, a retail store, and our online cannabidiol (“CBD”) store which also sells products in our facility.
California
As of September 30, 2022, we held the following licensed operations in California: (a) an adult-use dispensary superstore co-located with a distribution license at our 33,000 square foot facility in Santa Ana which we built and opened on July 1, 2021 (the “Planet 13 OC Superstore”), (b) following the closing of our Plan of Arrangement with Next Green Wave Holdings Inc. (“NGW”) on March 2, 2022, as more fully discussed in Acquisitions below, one dual-use and two adult-use cultivation licenses along with a nursery license and distribution license at our 35,000 square foot cultivation facility, and one Type P production license at a 4,000 square foot facility. As of May 5, 2022, we received notification that our application to enhance the Type P production license to Type 6 non-volatile extraction license had been approved by the California Department of Cannabis Control (“DCC”), to produce our existing product lines, including gummies, concentrates, chocolates, and beverages and distribute them for wholesale sales in California. Further, on July 12, 2022, the DCC granted to NGW a cultivation processing license to trim, cure, dry, grade, package, and label the cannabis grown at NGW facilities.

Florida
As of September 30, 2022, we are continuing capital outlays to utilize our Florida MMTC license issued by the Florida Department of Health that was acquired by our wholly owned subsidiary, Planet 13 Florida Inc., on October 1, 2021 for $55 million in cash. Licensed MMTCs are vertically integrated and the only businesses in Florida authorized to dispense medical marijuana cannabis to qualified patients and caregivers. MMTCs are authorized to cultivate, process, transport and dispense medical marijuana. As of September 30, 2022 there were 22 companies with MMTC licenses in Florida, many of which are not yet operational. License holders are not subject to restrictions on the number of dispensaries that may be opened or on the number or size of cultivation and processing facilities they may operate.
On July 1, 2022, we, through our subsidiary Planet 13 Florida, Inc., closed on a $3,300,000 USD purchase of a 23-acre parcel of real property, inclusive of a 10,500 square foot building, near Ocala, Florida. The property was previously leased by Planet 13 Florida, Inc., and has received Florida OMMU approvals for cultivation, processing, and dispensing activities.
As part of our Florida expansion, as of the date of this report, we have entered into three leases for dispensing locations in Florida, which remain subject to completion of tenant improvements and regulatory inspection prior to sales to customers.
Illinois
On August 5, 2021, Planet 13 Illinois, in which entity we hold a minority interest, won a Conditional Adult Use Dispensing Organization License in the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin region from the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. The conditional license was issued to Planet 13 Illinois on July 22, 2022. We own 49% of Planet 13 Illinois and 51% is owned by Frank Cowan.
On August 5, 2022, we entered into an option purchase agreement that gives the us the option to purchase 51% of Planet 13 Illinois that it does not already own from Frank Cowan for $866,250 in cash and 1,063,377 common shares of the Company. The option is exercisable at our discretion for a period of two years.
On October 14, 2022, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Planet 13 Chicago, LLC, entered into a $2,500,000 real property purchase agreement for a proposed dispensing location in Waukegan, Illinois, for an approximately 8,000 square foot building on 1.9 acres, previously occupied by a financial institution tenant. The Company’s obligation to close on the transaction is conditioned upon obtaining local jurisdiction zoning and land-use approvals, completion of customary due diligence, and that the current non-occupying tenant terminate their lease at the property. On November 1, 2022, the Company provided notice of this site selection to the Illinois cannabis regulator.
COVID-19 Pandemic Update for Third Quarter 2022
Starting on February 10, 2022, COVID-19 protocols in Nevada no longer include mask mandates in Clark and Nye County, where we have operations, for all individuals within public indoor settings.
On March 1, 2022, the State of California changed mask requirements arising under the general industry safety order by Cal/OSHA, with a strong recommendation that masks were required statewide for unvaccinated individuals in indoor public settings and workplaces, as opposed to the previous requirement for mask use by unvaccinated individuals.
These policies have continued through the date of this report.
We caution that current global uncertainty with respect to the spread of COVID-19 or its variants and its effect on the broader global economy may have a significant negative effect on us. As reflected in this MD&A, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on our business. While the continued impact of COVID-19 on us remains unknown, continued spread of COVID-19 or its variants may have a material adverse effect on global economic activity and can, and in some cases, has resulted in volatility and disruption to global supply chains, operations, mobility of people and the financial markets, which could and may continue to affect interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk, inflation, business, financial conditions, results of operations and other factors relevant to us. Long-term economic impacts relating to COVID-19 and state and national fiscal policy related to combatting the economic impacts of COVID-19 may have a long-term detrimental impact on customer spending, costs of customer acquisition, and may be a driver for rapid inflation which could negatively affect our customers’ discretionary spending capability or increase our materials and labor costs in future periods.

Acquisitions
On March 2, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), we completed our acquisition of NGW. We entered into an arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with NGW on December 20, 2021, pursuant to which we agreed to acquire (the “Arrangement”) all of the issued and outstanding common shares of NGW (the “NGW Shares”) pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Arrangement was approved by the holders of NGW Shares (the “NGW Shareholders”) at a special meeting of NGW Shareholders held on February 25, 2022, and approved by the Supreme Court of British Columbia on March 1, 2022.
Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, at 12:01 a.m. (Vancouver time) (the “Effective Time”) on the Closing Date, we acquired all of the NGW Shares for a total consideration of approximately C$71,791,700 (based on the closing price of our Common Shares (the “Planet 13 Shares”) on the Canadian Securities Exchange on February 28, 2022), and NGW then amalgamated with us. The NGW Shareholders received 0.1145 of one Planet 13 Share (the “Exchange Ratio”) and a nominal cash payment of C$0.0001 for each NGW Share held immediately prior to the Effective Time. As a result, 21,361,002 Planet 13 Shares and $14,788 in cash were issued in exchange for the NGW Shares. In addition, the number of Planet 13 Shares issued to any person pursuant to the Arrangement was rounded down to the nearest whole Planet 13 Share, with a cash consideration paid in lieu of the issuance of such fractional Planet 13 Share of C$3.379 per share.
Based upon the Exchange Ratio, all NGW options to acquire NGW Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time were also exchanged for our options that will entitle the holders to receive, upon exercise thereof, Planet 13 Shares. As a result, we issued 1,106,925 options in exchange for the NGW options.

We experienced a 22.2% decrease in net revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2022, and a 11.0% decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease is attributable to a reduction in the number of customers at our Planet 13 Las Vegas Superstore location compared to the prior year periods, partially offset by an increase of revenue from the Planet 13 OC Superstore and the addition of wholesale revenue from the NGW cultivation operations in California, and an increase in net wholesale revenue. Overall, net revenue decreased by ($7,329,037) or (22.2%) during the three months ended September 30, 2022, decreased by ($9,882,208) or (11.0%) during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The potential recession and increase in inflation, including the increase in the price of gasoline and the increase in interest rates, combined to reduce the disposable income of our customers during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and also had an impact on the number of customers and tourists visiting the Planet 13 Las Vegas Superstore and our other retail locations during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was 41.2% compared to 53.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and was 46.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 55.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was a result of increased sales incentives during the period coupled with the increase in wholesale revenue, both from our Nevada wholesale business and from the recently acquired NGW cultivation assets in California, that has an inherently lower gross margin than retail sales revenue.

The costs of internal cultivation have continued to trend down as we continue to improve our yields and cultivation efficiency across all of our cultivation facilities. In addition, margin enhancement through the creation of internally generated brands, such as TRENDI, Leaf & Vine, HaHa Gummies, Dreamland Chocolate, HaHa Beverages and Medizin, continued to have a positive impact on gross margins during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, helping offset the lower margins received on the sale of wholesale product and sales to local customers in the State of Nevada. We anticipate that margins will trend upward as tourist customers return to Las Vegas and the Planet 13 Las Vegas Superstore in greater numbers and through our ability to produce our award-winning brands in California and introduce those brands into our Planet 13 OC Superstore along with the recent introduction of NGW premium flower to the Planet 13 OC Superstore.
Our premium cultivation facilities were operating near capacity during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, respectively. The amount of cannabis grown during the period increased significantly when compared to the prior year period due to the addition of the 35,000 square feet of cultivation capacity that was added as part of the NGW acquisition on March 2, 2022, and the September 26, 2022 initial planting in our substantially completed 22,000 square foot cultivation facility expansion in Nevada. The wholesale flower market in California came under pressure due to excess supply of flower and biomass from the harvest of outdoor crops during the November 2021 to March 2022 period. Wholesale flower prices experienced significant decline during this period, impacting gross margins and revenue at our NGW cultivation facility during the period. The supply of wholesale flower in California appears to be stabilizing and we have seen increases in both demand and the price received for premium indoor grown flower from late April through the end of October 2022.
Overall gross margin was $10,558,902 and $17,743,328 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 respectively, a decrease of 40.5%, and was $37,284,413 and $49,784,174 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of 25.1%.
General and Administrative (“G&A”) expenses (which includes non-cash share-based compensation expenses,) decreased by 43.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in G&A expenses incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2022, was a result of focused cost cutting initiatives undertaken by the Company and a reduction in share-based compensation expense recorded during the period, partially offset by the addition of G&A expenses from the recently acquired NGW cultivation assets in California. G&A costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, decreased by 16.7% or $7,377,986 as a result of focused cost cutting initiatives undertaken by the Company and a reduction in share-based compensation expense recorded during the period, partially offset by the addition of G&A expenses from the recently acquired NGW cultivation assets in California, a full nine months of operations at our P13 OC Superstore compared with only three months in the prior year period, as well as increased expenditures related to corporate initiatives (registration of the class of our Common Shares through filing a Form 10 registration statement with the SEC and merger and acquisition related fees incurred on the closing of the NGW acquisition) that were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 when compared to the prior year period. Overall, excluding non-cash share-based compensation expenses, G&A expenses as a percentage of revenue equaled 36.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 40.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. And was 38.4% and 35.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in G&A as a percentage of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was a direct result of the addition of one time legal and other professional fees associated with the acquisition of NGW and the Company becoming a US Domestic through the filing of a Form 10 registration statement in February 2022.

Non-cash, share based compensation of $2,037,764 was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2022, decreasing from $6,613,846 incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, non-cash share-based compensation expense was $6,154,338, a decrease of 49.6% over the $12,211,567 recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in both the three- and nine-month periods can be attributable to the vesting schedule for both Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) and incentive stock options that were previously granted, particularly the net 3,954,213 RSUs that were granted on April 18, 2021, that vest 1/3 on December 1, 2021, and 1/3 on the first and second anniversary of the first vesting date. These amounts are non-cash, and the expense is recognized in accordance with the vesting schedule of the underlying stock options and RSUs. See Note 12 to our audited consolidated financial statements filed with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, for additional details on the assumptions used to calculate fair value as well as information regarding the vesting of the various components of the non-cash share-based compensation.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 52.1% during the three months ended September 30, 2022, and by 41.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease during both the three- and nine-month periods was a result of us continuing to refine our marketing efforts to optimize marketing spend on initiatives that drive increased customer traffic to the Planet 13 Las Vegas Superstore and the Planet 13 OC Superstore and our Medizin dispensary in Nevada.
Lease expense increased by 7.4% during the three months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to increases in contracted lease rates on the Company’s leased properties during the period. Lease expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased by 2.6% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due to a financial incentive from the landlord of the Planet 13 OC Superstore received during the period which offset increases in contractual lease rates. We are amortizing the financial incentive benefit received over the remaining life of the lease.
Depreciation and Amortization increased 43.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the prior year period because of the recording of depreciation on the NGW cultivation facility during the period as well as depreciation from the Planet 13 OC Superstore location, both of which were not owned/open during the prior year comparative period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, depreciation and amortization increased 79.9% when compared to the prior year period because of the recording of depreciation on the NGW cultivation facility during the period as well as depreciation from the Planet 13 OC Superstore location.

Interest income was $121,285 earned during the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to interest expense of $6,996 during the three months ended September 30, 2021, (interest income of $193,896 for the nine months ended September 31, 2022, compared to interest expense of $23,698 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021). The interest expense relates to accrued interest on our long-term debt that is due and payable on demand offset by interest income earned on cash deposits. The balance of long-term debt as of September 30, 2022, was $884,000 compared to $884,000 as of December 31, 2021.
We conduct our operations in both United States dollars and Canadian dollars, holding financial assets and incurring expenses in both currencies. On December 31, 2021, the value of the USD was USD$1.00=CAD$1.2678 compared to the value of the USD of USD$1.00=CAD$1.3707 at September 30, 2022 and averaged USD$1.00=CAD$1.2828 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, resulting in our realizing a foreign exchange loss of $1,834 during the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to a foreign exchange gain of $79,688 during the three months ended September 30, 2021. (Foreign exchange loss of $23,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a gain of $1,805,953 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021). It is our policy not to hedge our CAD exposure.
Warrants are accounted for in accordance with the applicable authoritative accounting guidance in ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815”), as derivative liabilities based on the specific terms of the warrant agreements. Liability-classified instruments are recorded at fair value at each reporting period with any change in fair value recognized as a component of change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Transaction costs allocated to warrants that are presented as a liability are expensed immediately within other expenses (income) in the statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the change in fair value of the warrants resulted in a gain of $197,721 (gain of $6,992,955 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022) compared to a gain of $6,522,787 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 (a loss of ($2,728,386) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021).
Other income (expense), consisting of Automated Teller Machine (“ATM”) fees, interest and other miscellaneous income/expense was income of $41,487 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to other income of $152,466 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $270,254 compared to other income of $338,890 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Transaction costs related to the issuance of warrants of $0 were incurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to transaction costs of $0 and $256,666 during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectfully. The transaction costs represent a portion of the issuance costs that were allocated to the issuance of warrants as part of the bought deal equity financing that was completed in February 2021.
The income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was $2,222,504 compared to $3,397,821 for the prior year period. The tax expense decreased due to the decrease in taxable profitability during the three months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $7,871,349 compared to income tax expense of $9,632,808 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The tax expense decreased due to the decrease in taxable profitability during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We are subject to Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), which prohibits businesses from taking deductions or credits in carrying on any trade or business consisting of trafficking in certain controlled substances that are prohibited by federal law. We, to the extent of our “trafficking” activities, and/or key contract counterparties directly engaged in trafficking in cannabis, have incurred significant tax liabilities from the application of Section 280E. Our income tax obligations under Section 280E of the Code are typically substantially higher as compared to companies to which Section 280E does not apply. Section 280E essentially requires us to pay federal, and as applicable, state income taxes on gross profit, which presents a significant financial burden that increases our net loss and may make it more difficult for us to generate net profit and cash flow from operations in future periods. In addition, to the extent that the application of Section 280E creates a financial burden on contract counterparties, such burdens may impact the ability of such counterparties to make full or timely payment to us, which would also have a material adverse effect on our business.

As of September 30, 2022, we had working capital of $58,126,927 compared to working capital of $68,274,639 as of December 31, 2021. The Company has adequate liquidity in the form of cash on hand to fund all its planned capital expenditures and expansion plans as well as to continue to fund its operation over the next 12 months, including the substantially completed expansion of a cultivation facility in Clark Country, Nevada the planned build-out of our operations in Florida, further expansion of operations in Nevada, and the conditional acquisition and build-out of an Illinois retail location.
The following table relates to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

The increase is primarily due to the receipt of cash proceeds for lease incentives during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $13,148,271 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $14,624,473 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease is due to lower amounts spent on capital expenditures during the period when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Capital Resources
We have a recent history of operating losses. It may be necessary for us to arrange for additional financing to meet our on-going growth initiatives.
Management believes it will be able to raise equity capital as required in the long term, but recognizes the risks attached thereto. There can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of such financing may be favorable.
Should financing not be available, the Company has adequate liquidity in the form of cash on hand to fund all of its planned capital expenditures and expansion plans as well as to continue to fund its operation over the next 12 months, including the planned expansion of a cultivation facility in Clark County, Nevada, the build-out of our operations in Florida, further expansion of operations in Nevada, and the conditional acquisition and build-out of an Illinois retail location.
Capital Management
Our capital consists of shareholders’ equity. Our objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support the development of our businesses and maintain the necessary corporate and administrative functions to facilitate these activities. This is done primarily through equity financing and incurring debt. Future financings are dependent on market conditions and there can be no assurance we will be able to raise funds in the future. We invest all capital that is surplus to our immediate operational needs in short-term, highly liquid, and high-grade financial instruments. There were no changes to our approach to capital management during the period. We are not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2022, or as of December 31, 2021, or as of the date hereof.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amounts, events or actions, actual results may differ from those estimates. Estimates and judgements are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as set forth in Part II Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
There have been no material changes to our market risk disclosures as set forth in Part II Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers (“Co-CEOs”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the risk related to controls and procedures.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as of September 30, 2022, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Co-CEOs and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2022.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation of our internal control performed during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
There are no actual or to our knowledge contemplated legal proceedings material to us or our subsidiaries or to which any of our or any of our subsidiaries’ property is the subject matter.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the risk factor set forth below and other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, financial results, or future performance. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Implications of being a smaller reporting company
As of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, we determined that we requalify as a smaller reporting company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
Similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosure and have certain other reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, with correspondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” not being required to furnish a contractual obligations table in “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and not being required to furnish a stock performance graph in our annual report.
We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available exemptions. We have taken advantage of reduced reporting burdens in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive if we rely on certain or all of these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Not applicable.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information.
None.
