Note to Reader:

 

These preliminary, unaudited selected financial results and disclosures contained in this news release are preliminary, based on information available to management as of the date of this news release, remain subject to the completion of normal quarter and year end accounting procedures and adjustments, and are subject to change. These estimates should not be relied upon as fact or as an accurate representation of future results, and their presentation is not intended to represent actual results. The Company undertakes no obligation to update the information in this news release in the event facts or circumstances change after the date of this news release. The Company expects to file audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and unaudited financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 for VidaCann and pro forma financial information of the Company including VidaCann no later than July 24, 2024.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

There are financial measures included in this news release that are not in accordance with GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures and metrics presented by other publicly traded companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company includes Adjusted EBITDA margin because it believes certain investors use this measure and metric as a means of assessing financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as the ratio between net income and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA before share-based compensation, the change in fair value of warrants and one-time non-recurring expenses and EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
