Summary of significant accounting policies
(a)
Basis of presentation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) of the Company and its subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the year ended December 31, 2025, or any other interim or future periods.
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2024 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 6, 2025 (the "Annual Report"). There were no significant changes to the policies disclosed in Note 2 of the summary of significant accounting policies of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 in the Company's Annual Report.
Consolidation
The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest by evaluating whether the entity is a voting interest entity (“VOE”) or a variable interest entity (“VIE”).
In connection with the listing of the Common Shares on the TSX, the Company reorganized its ownership structure to segregate the Company’s Canadian retail operations from TerrAscend's cultivation and manufacturing operations in the United States (the "Reorganization"). Following the completion of the Reorganization, the Company owns 95% of its Canadian retail business. The Company continues to consolidate both its Canadian and U.S. cannabis operations under two different consolidation models.
Subsequent to the Reorganization, all operations in the United States have a functional currency of the U.S. dollar ("USD"). Canadian operations continue to have a functional currency of the Canadian dollar ("CAD").
Voting Interest Entities
A VOE is an entity in which (1) the total equity investment at risk is deemed sufficient to absorb the expected losses of the entity, (2) the at-risk equity holders, as a group, have all of the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and (3) the entity is structured with substantive voting rights. The Company consolidates the Canadian operations under a VOE model based on the controlling financial interest obtained through Common Shares with substantive voting rights.
Variable Interest Entities
A VIE is an entity that lacks one or more characteristics of a controlling financial interest defined under the voting interest model. The Company consolidates VIE when it has a variable interest that provide it with (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance (power) and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE (benefits).
In connection with the Reorganization, TerrAscend issued and sold, on a private placement basis, Class A shares in the capital of TerrAscend ("Class A Shares") for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000 to an investor ("Investment"). See Note 9 for accounting treatment of the Class A Shares. Following the closing of the Investment, the Class B shares ("Class B Shares") in the capital of TerrAscend held by the Company, representing all of the issued and outstanding Class B shares, were automatically exchanged for non-voting, non-participating exchangeable shares in the capital of TerrAscend ("Non-Voting Shares"), representing approximately 99.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of TerrAscend on an as-converted basis. As a result of the limited rights associated with Non-Voting Shares that the Company holds following the closing of the Investment, the Company and TerrAscend entered into a protection agreement dated April 18, 2023 ("Protection Agreement"). The Protection Agreement provides for certain negative covenants in order to preserve the value of the Non-Voting Shares until such time as the Non-Voting Shares are converted into Class A Shares.
The Issuer determined that TerrAscend is a VIE, as all of the Company’s U.S. activities continue to be conducted on behalf of the Company which has disproportionately few voting rights. After conducting an analysis of the following VIE factors; purpose and design of the VIE, the Protection Agreement in place, the structure of the Company's board of directors (the "Board"), and substantive kick-out rights of the holders of the Class A Shares, it was determined that the Company has the power to direct the activities of TerrAscend. In addition, given the structure of the Class A Shares where all of the losses and substantially all of the benefits of TerrAscend are absorbed by the Company, the Company consolidates as the primary beneficiary in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation.
The Company's U.S. operations are consolidated through the VIE model. Therefore, substantially all of the Company's current assets, non-current assets, current liabilities and non-current liabilities are consolidated through the VIE model. The Company's assets and liabilities that are not consolidated through the VIE model include convertible debt, and derivative liability. The Company also consolidates a minimal amount of assets and liabilities within Canada.

Stock Options
The following table summarizes the stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2025:
| Number of Stock Options | Weighted average remaining contractual life (in years) | Weighted Average Exercise Price (per share) $ | Aggregate intrinsic value | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outstanding, December 31, 2024 | 16,120,919 | 5.90 | $3.13 | $32 |
| Granted | 67,500 | — | 0.79 | — |
| Exercised | — | — | — | — |
| Forfeited | (158,196) | — | 2.16 | — |
| Expired | (640,103) | — | 4.46 | — |
| Outstanding, March 31, 2025 | 15,390,120 | 5.83 | $3.08 | $6 |
| Exercisable, March 31, 2025 | 11,163,455 | 4.82 | $3.56 | $6 |
The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between Company’s closing stock price on March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of the in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had they exercised their in-the-money options on March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The fair value of the various stock options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model (the "Black-Scholes Model") with the following assumptions:
| March 31, 2025 | March 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Volatility | 72.55% - 75.19% | 77.70% - 77.79% |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.02% - 4.4% | 3.18% - 3.50% |
| Expected life (years) | 5.07 - 6.25 | 10.01 |
| Dividend yield | 0.00% | 0.00% |
Volatility was estimated by using the historical volatility of the Company's stock price. The expected life in years represents the period of time that the options issued are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on U.S. treasury bond issues with a remaining term approximately equal to the expected life of the options. Dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
The total estimated fair value of stock options that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $2,730 and $3,395, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options was $4,163, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.16 years.
Restricted Share Units
The following table summarizes the activities for the RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2025:
| Number of RSUs | |
|---|---|
| Outstanding, December 31, 2024 | 1,600,305 |
| Granted | — |
| Vested | (62,593) |
| Forfeited | — |
| Outstanding, March 31, 2025 | 1,537,712 |
As of March 31, 2025, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs was $2,134, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.6 years.
Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interest consists mainly of a 12.5% minority ownership interest in TerrAscend's New Jersey operations.
The following table summarizes the non-controlling interest activity for the three months ended March 31, 2025:
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Opening carrying amount | $(144) | $(1,756) |
| Capital distributions | (738) | (7,324) |
| Acquisition of non-controlling interest | — | 1,374 |
| Net income attributable to non-controlling interest | 1,302 | 7,562 |
| Ending carrying amount | $420 | $(144) |
Related parties
Parties are related if one party has the ability to control or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financing and operating decisions. At March 31, 2025, amounts due to/from related parties consisted of:
(a)
Loans payable: As of March 31, 2025, certain funds controlled by Jason Wild, a related party of the Company, held $5,500 of the total loan principal balance of the FG Loan (see Note 9), as a member of the loan syndicate.
Income taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was (1,392.6)% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and (186.7)% for thethree months ended March 31, 2024.
The Company has computed its provision for income taxes based on the actual effective tax rate for the quarter as the Company believes this is the best estimate for the annual effective tax rate. 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 recognizes benefits from uncertain tax positions based on the cumulative probability method whereby the largest benefit with a cumulative probability of greater than 50% is recorded. An uncertain tax position is not recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits for the period presented:
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Balance at beginning of year | $148,979 | $84,485 |
| Increase based on tax positions related to current periods | 8,475 | 37,278 |
| Increase based on tax positions related to prior periods | — | 40,986 |
| Settlements with tax authorities | — | (13,770) |
| Balance at end of year | $157,454 | $148,979 |
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of uncertain tax liabilities, inclusive of accruals for related penalties and interest, for the period presented:
| March 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Balance, beginning of year | $106,991 | $79,627 |
| Increases based on tax positions related to prior years | 2,161 | 4,536 |
| Additions based on tax positions related to current year | 6,169 | 26,825 |
| Additions based on refunds received related to prior years | 16 | 10 |
| Release of tax payments on deposit and other | (633) | (4,007) |
| Ending carrying amount (1) | $114,704 | $106,991 |
(1) Related to uncertain tax liabilities, the Company accrued $9,322 in interest and $6,123 in penalties as of March 31, 2025.
The increase in uncertain tax positions is primarily due to legal interpretations that challenge the application of Section 280E of the Code to the Company (“280E Tax Position”). The Company believes it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will increase over the next 12 months due to its 280E Tax Position.
During 2024, certain of the Company’s amended federal income tax returns were selected for routine examinations by the Internal Revenue Service. As of March 31, 2025, there have been no material developments related to these examinations. The Company does not currently anticipate completion of the audits within the next twelve months.

Segment information
Operating Segment
The Company has determined that it operates asone reportable segment focused on the production and sale of cannabis products. While the Company manages its operations through state-level operating segments, these segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment due to similar long-term economic characteristics and other required criteria of similarity outlined in ASC 280, Segment Reporting, and in accordance with ASU 2023-07. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) was determined to be the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The CODM regularly evaluates the performance of the single reportable segment using gross profit margin as its closest measure to GAAP. Gross margin is a measure that is calculated as total revenue minus cost of goods sold, divided by total revenue. The CODM monitors this metric to assess the efficiency of the Company’s production and distribution processes, as well as the effectiveness of pricing strategies.
| For the Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 31, 2025 | March 31, 2024 | |
| Revenue, net | $70,997 | $80,633 |
| Cost of sales | 34,194 | 41,902 |
| Gross profit | 36,803 | 38,731 |
| Gross profit margin | 51.8% | 48.0% |

Financial instruments and risk management
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value
Financial instruments recorded at fair value are estimated by applying a 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. The hierarchy is summarized as follows:
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) from observable market data
Level 3 - inputs for assets and liabilities not based upon observable market data
The following table represents the fair value amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities:
| At March 31, 2025 | At December 31, 2024 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |

The valuation approaches and key inputs for each category of assets or liabilities that are classified within levels of the fair value hierarchy are presented below:
Level 1
Includes cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash represent financial instruments for which the carrying amount approximates fair value due to their short-term maturities.
Level 2

Commitments and contingencies
Commitments
As of March 31, 2025, the Company hadno material contractual commitments other than those disclosed in Note 23.
Legal proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in a number of lawsuits incidental to its business, including litigation related to intellectual property, product liability, employment, and commercial matters. Although it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, management believes that any ultimate liability would not have a material adverse effect on the Consolidated Balance Sheets or unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. At March 31, 2025, there were no pending lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Subsequent events
On May 6, 2025, the Company and a consolidated entity completed the acquisition of certain assets of Ratio Cannabis LLC ("Ratio Cannabis"), a dispensary in Ohio. Under the terms of the purchase agreements entered into in connection with the acquisition, each dated as of March 14, 2025, the Company and a consolidated entity acquired certain assets of Ratio Cannabis for total consideration of $10,300, which was comprised of $5,000 in cash, $1,320 in Common Shares and a seller’s note for $3,980 bearing 6% interest with atwo-year maturity. The number of Common Shares issued as part of the consideration was calculated based on the twenty (20)-day volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares on the OTCQX for the period ending on May 5, 2025, resulting in the issuance of 4,570,637 Common Shares by the Company on May 6, 2025. The Company is evaluating the accounting implications and is currently unable to reasonably estimate the full financial statement impact of the acquisition.
On May 5, 2025, the Company signed an option agreement to acquire equity interests in, and fully operate, Union Chill Cannabis Company LLC, a dispensary in New Jersey for total consideration of $13,000, which will be comprised of $4,000 in cash and a convertible promissory note for $9,000. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
