The Cannabist Company Management Commentary

“We are pleased to announce our definitive agreements to transition our Florida operations over to a leading multistate operator and the MINT Shango JV. This strategic move aligns with our ongoing efforts to build a better business - rationalizing our footprint and focusing on our growth markets to enhance profitability. As previously disclosed, our Florida assets are better suited for other operators’ portfolios, allowing us to eliminate loss-making operations that represent less than 5% of revenue, while bringing in non-dilutive capital to further bolster the balance sheet,” said David Hart, CEO, The Cannabist Company. “We are proud of the Cannabist locations we’ve developed over the last few years and are grateful for the commitment of our entire Florida team.”

Closing of the transactions pursuant to the definitive agreements is subject to closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Upon exit of the Florida market, the Cannabist Company’s operational footprint will be in 13 markets, which will be further reduced to 12 once the ongoing exit from Washington, DC is finalized.

ATB Capital Markets is acting as financial advisor to the Company on the Florida transactions. CLD Advisory is acting as financial advisor to the MINT Shango JV.
