Current report

We have incurred recurring operating losses, negative cash flows from operations, and have significant debt obligations due within the next twelve months due to an event of default on the Company's outstanding Term Loan. These conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Current report

The Company and its Board of Directors are exploring strategic alternatives to strengthen the Company’s liquidity and capital structure. In connection with such process, the Company and its financial advisors have engaged in ongoing discussions with lenders (the “Lenders”) under the Company’s Credit and Guaranty Agreement (as amended, the “Credit and Guaranty Agreement”) with FEAC Agent, LLC (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.), as administrative agent for the Lenders (“FEAC”), and certain of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries (the “Obligors”), pursuant to which the Company borrowed a $125.0 million senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”). While these discussions have continued, on February 4, 2026, the Company elected to defer making the interest payment of approximately $2.8 million on the Term Loan. As a result of the Company’s failure to pay the interest within the grace period, an event of default occurred with respect to the Term Loan. On February 11, 2026, the Lenders, through the administrative agent, notified the Company of such event of the Specified Event of Default and informed the Company that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may exercise any rights and remedies provided under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement and related financing documents, but it did not seek to enforce such remedies as of such time. As a result of the Specified Event of Default, the Term Loan was reclassified to current portion of long-term debt from long-term debt and interest began accruing at a rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable.

Current report

On April 8, 2026 (the “Forbearance Effective Date”), the Company entered into the Forbearance Agreement with the other Obligors, the Lenders, and FEAC, in connection with the Term Loan. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, during the Forbearance Period (as defined in Note 11 –Debt to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), solely with respect to the Specified Event of Default, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall, upon the terms and conditions expressly specified therein, take any action, commence any proceedings against any Obligor or any other person with respect to the enforcement of any of its or their rights or remedies under the Credit Documents or applicable law, other than as expressly described in the Forbearance Agreement. [As of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Forbearance Period is continuing.]

Current report

For additional information, see Note 2 –Liquidity and Going Concern to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and “* - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Availability and Use of Cash*.”

Current report

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, as a result of industry conditions, primarily attributable to an agricultural oversupply impacting our market and resulting in a decrease in indoor and outdoor cultivation, as well as continued declines in operating cash flows and profitability, we assessed our long-lived assets for impairment and recorded an impairment charge of $232.2 million. Of such impairment charge, $228.4 million was related to finite-lived intangible assets and $3.8 million was related to property, plant, and equipment. The loss was recorded in Impairments in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025. We estimated fair value based on the income approach and market approach. Under the income approach, we estimated the fair value of the asset group on the present value of estimated future cash flows, which we considered to be a level 3 unobservable input in the fair value hierarchy.

Current report

We maintain an allowance for excess and obsolete inventory that is based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. While we believe our estimates of charges relating to our 2025 Restructuring Plan, long-lived assets, inventory obsolescence, and accounts receivable allowances are reasonable, it is possible that we may incur additional charges in the future and actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions. Depending on the length and severity of the industry and market conditions impacting our business, it is possible we may execute additional restructuring plan actions and incur future associated charges, and we may not be able to realize the full extent of our anticipated cost savings.

Current report

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026, were $28.5 million, a decrease of $12.0 million, or 29.6% compared to the same period in 2025.

Current report

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $5.9 million, an increase from $3.4 million of interest expense recorded in the same period in the prior year. The increase for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily acceleration of our Term Loan discount and deferred financing costs costs triggered by the Specified Event of Default.

Current report

As of March 31, 2026, we had $5.3 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and a working capital deficit of $98.0 million. We have incurred recurring operating losses, negative cash flows from operations, and has significant debt obligations due within the next twelve months. These conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Current report

Our plans to address these conditions include reducing costs through restructuring and other initiatives, including facility consolidations, headcount reductions, and focusing on our proprietary brand offerings. To improve liquidity we are negotiating with lenders and key vendors, and are pursuing additional financing or strategic alternatives including the sale of assets or businesses, or through an offering of equity securities. Any potential such event may be subject to provisions referenced in the Term Loan, such as subjecting us to make mandatory repayments prior to the originally stated maturity date. Although we believe such plans, if executed, should provide us with liquidity to meet our needs, successful completion of such plans is dependent on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control as further discussed in*Item 1A. "Risk Factors"included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and *in our 2025 Annual Report.

Current report

The Term Loan requires us to maintain certain reporting requirements, affirmative covenants, and negative covenants. On February 4, 2026, we elected to defer making an interest payment of approximately $2.8 million on the Term Loan. As a result of our failure to pay the interest within the grace period, an event of default occurred with respect to the Term Loan. On February 11, 2026, the lenders, through the administrative agent, notified us of the Specified Event of Default and informed us that the administrative agent or the collateral agent may exercise any rights and remedies provided under the Term Loan agreement and related financing documents, but it did not seek to enforce such remedies as of such time.

Current report

On the Forbearance Effective Date, the Company entered into the Forbearance Agreement with the other Obligors, the Lenders, and FEAC, in connection with the Term Loan. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, during the Forbearance Period (as defined in Note 11 –Debt to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), solely with respect to the Specified Event of Default, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall, upon the terms and conditions expressly specified therein, take any action, commence any proceedings against any Obligor or any other person with respect to the enforcement of any of its or their rights or remedies under the Credit Documents or applicable law, other than as expressly described in the Forbearance Agreement. As of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Forbearance Period is continuing.
Removed paragraphs (17)

Previous report

In connection with the 2023 Restructuring Plan, we undertook significant actions to streamline operations, reduce costs and improve efficiencies. Restructuring actions were primarily U.S. manufacturing facility consolidations, in particular with respect to production of certain durable equipment products. Restructuring activities included termination and disposal costs associated with inventory, facilities, and headcount reductions, and non-cash charges consisting of fixed asset and inventory write-downs. Total costs incurred relating to the 2023 Restructuring Plan from commencement through completion were (i) $9.7 million of non-cash charges relating primarily to inventory markdowns, and (ii) $2.0 million of cash charges relating primarily to the consolidation of U.S. manufacturing facilities.

Previous report

In 2024, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with CM Fabrication, LLC to sell the inventories, and property, plant and equipment associated with our IGE-branded products for approximately $8.7 million, while retaining our proprietary brand and customer relationships. In connection with the IGE Asset Sale, we entered into an exclusive supply agreement with the Buyer, pursuant to which the Buyer provides contract manufacturing and we continue to sell our proprietary branded durable products, which include horticulture benches, racking and LED lighting systems. After completion of the IGE Asset Sale and the aforementioned restructuring actions, we have now consolidated our manufacturing operations into two U.S. locations and our peat moss harvesting and processing operation in Canada.

Previous report

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025, were $29.4 million, a decrease of $14.7 million, or 33.3% compared to the same period in 2024. Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, were $109.1 million, a decrease of $43.8 million, or 28.7% compared to the same period in 2024.

Previous report

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $3.4 million, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 60.0%, compared to the same period in 2024. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $13.1 million, a decrease of $17.2 million, or 56.8%, compared to the same period in 2024.

Previous report

SG&A expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, were $16.4 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 6.8% compared to the same period in 2024. SG&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, were $50.4 million, a decrease of $5.5 million, or 9.8% compared to the same period in 2024.

Previous report

As previously reported, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with CM Fabrication, LLC to sell assets relating to the production of durable equipment products for $8.7 million. The IGE Asset Sale closed during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and we sold or disposed of inventories and other assets. We recorded a Loss on asset disposition of $11.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Refer to Note 3 – Restructuring and Asset Sales for a further description of the IGE Asset Sale.

Previous report

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $3.3 million, a decrease from $3.9 million of interest expense recorded in the same period in the prior year. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $10.1 million, a decrease from $11.7 million of interest expense recorded in the same period in the prior year. The decreases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were primarily due to lower debt outstanding due to principal repayments and lower variable interest rates on our Term Loan.

Previous report

Net cash used in financing activities was $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily driven by (i) $2.9 million of Term Loan repayments relating to required quarterly payments of principal and prepayments made in conjunction with the sale-leaseback transaction, and (ii) finance lease principal payments of $1.3 million which included approximately $0.7 million relating to equipment finance lease payments made in connection with the IGE Asset Sale.

Previous report

Our ability to make investments in our business, service our debt and maintain liquidity will primarily depend upon our ability to generate excess operating cash flows through our operating subsidiaries. We believe that our cash flows from operating activities, combined with current cash levels, borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility, and access to capital markets, will be adequate to support our ongoing operations, and to fund debt service requirements, capital expenditures, lease obligations and working capital needs through the next twelve months of operations. However, we cannot guarantee that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operating activities or that future borrowings will be available under our borrowing agreements in amounts sufficient to pay indebtedness or fund other working capital needs. Actual results of operations will depend on numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control as further discussed in Item 1A. "Risk Factors"included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our 2024 Annual Report.

Previous report

As further described in Note 3 –Restructuring and Asset Sales and Note 10 –Debt, we closed on the IGE Asset Sale in 2024, whereby, in accordance with our Term Loan, the net proceeds of approximately $6.3 million are required to be reinvested into certain permitted investments, such as capital expenditures, or offered to prepay Term Loan principal. In accordance with this provision, the Company made a prepayment of $4.5 million during the second quarter of 2025, and had $0.8 million of remaining contractual commitments as of the payment date. Refer to further discussion below, relating to Term Loan reinvestment provisions applicable to the net cash proceeds of the IGE Asset Sale.

Previous report

The Revolving Credit Facility provides for various interest rate options including the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate, the CB Floating Rate, the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, or the CBFR. The rates that use SOFR as the reference rate (Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate, the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR and the CBFR rate) use the Term SOFR Rate plus 1.95%. Each rate has a 0.0% floor. A fee of 0.40% per annum is charged for available but unused borrowings. Our obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority lien (subject to certain permitted liens) on substantially all of our and our subsidiaries' respective personal property assets pursuant to the terms of a U.S. and Canadian Pledge and Security Agreement dated March 29, 2021 and other security documents, as amended to include additional subsidiaries.

Previous report

The Revolving Credit Facility maintains certain reporting requirements, affirmative covenants, negative covenants and financial covenants. A certain financial covenant becomes applicable in the event that our excess availability under the Revolving Credit Facility is less than an amount equal to 20% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment ($22 million as of September 30, 2025) and would require us to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1x on a rolling twelve-month basis.

Previous report

In order to consummate permitted acquisitions or to make restricted payments, we would be required to comply with a higher fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.15x, but no such acquisitions or payments are currently contemplated. We received a consent from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, to permit the cash settlement of fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, which is described further in Note 2 –Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies.

Previous report

We were in compliance with all debt covenants as of September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, approximately $4 million was available to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility, before we would be required to comply with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.1x.

Previous wording

We have experienced adverse financial results which we believe are primarily a result of an agricultural oversupply impacting our market and resulting in a decrease in indoor and outdoor cultivation. The extent these market conditions will continue to negatively impact our business and results of operations is uncertain and difficult to predict at this time. We believe COVID-19 may have provided a positive demand impact for the Company in 2020 and 2021 from shelter-in-place orders in the United States, a possible negative supply chain impact from workforce disruption at international and domestic suppliers, and a possible negative growth rate impact in the periods since due to agricultural oversupply initiated during the height of COVID-19 related shelter-in-place orders in 2020 and 2021. In addition, we believe demand for our products has been negatively impacted by the extended period to enact reform of U.S. federal regulations, including cannabis rescheduling, which have been slow to develop and possibly leading cannabis operators to reduce investments in our products, particularly durable goods. In addition, we believe our financial results have been negatively impacted by hydroponic retail store closings and, in some cases, associated accounts receivable allowances.

Previous wording

During the second quarter of 2025, we initiated the 2025 Restructuring Plan to reduce our product portfolio and operational footprint to decrease costs and improve efficiency. The 2025 Restructuring Plan actions entail (i) eliminating a significant portion of our product portfolio, primarily underperforming distributed brands, to improve supply chain and operational focus, (ii) further reductions in our distribution center network and manufacturing footprint, and (iii) corresponding headcount reductions. We incurred estimated restructuring costs of $0.9 million and $4.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, for the 2025 Restructuring Plan. The charges were primarily associated with non-cash inventory write-downs, which were recorded in Cost of goods sold on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, and cash charges which primarily comprised of charges incurred to relocate and terminate certain facilities. We anticipate the 2025 Restructuring Plan and related actions may result in additional restructuring charges of up to $2 million, primarily cash related, and annual cost savings of approximately $5 million plus additional working capital benefits.

The charges were primarily associated with non-cash inventory write-downs, which were recorded in cost of goods sold on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, and cash charges which primarily comprised of charges incurred to relocate and terminate certain facilities. We anticipate the 2025 Restructuring Plan and related actions may result in additional restructuring charges of up to $4 million, and annual cost savings of over $5 million plus additional working capital benefits. The 2025 Restructuring Plan is expected be completed by the end of 2026.

Previous wording

We continue to evaluate our product portfolio and supply chain, in order to improve efficiency, lower our costs and reduce footprint. We are also evaluating other opportunities to sell excess owned land, not currently being used in operations, to supplement our cash position and potential contract manufacturing or other outsourcing arrangements. Depending on the length and severity of the industry and market conditions, including the fluid and complex international tariff and trade policies, impacting our business, it is possible we may execute additional restructuring plan actions.

Depending on the length and severity of the industry and market conditions, including the fluid and complex international tariff and trade policies, impacting our business, our ability to successfully negotiate with lenders and key vendors, and the pursuit of additional financing or strategic alternatives, it is possible we may execute additional restructuring plan actions and incur future associated charges, and we may not be able to realize the full extent of our anticipated cost savings.

Previous wording

We are closely monitoring the recent tariff and trade policy actions taken by the United States and foreign governments. The situation remains fluid due to the rapidly changing global trade environment, and we are evaluating the potential implications of these actions on our business including net sales and profitability. High tariffs on imported products from China or other countries, or new tariffs from other countries, could impact the cost of certain products and may negatively impact the Company's financial performance. For additional information, see the Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our 2024 Annual Report, including the risk entitled “Potential tariffs or a global trade war could increase the cost of our products, which could adversely impact the competitiveness of our products and our financial results.”

High tariffs on imported products from China or other countries, or new tariffs from other countries, have impacted and could impact the cost of certain products and may negatively impact our financial performance. We have been able to help mitigate the impacts of tariffs through negotiations with vendors, and through passing nominal price increases to our customers, but we may be unable to quickly and effectively react to additional tariff and trade policy actions which may impact our business

The net cash usage was primarily due to a $0.8 million net cash inflow from a reduction in working capital, offset by a net loss of $49.2 million, less net non-cash items of $45.4 million. The $0.8 million net reduction in working capital was primarily comprised of a $8.9 million decrease of inventories, a $0.8 million decrease in accounts receivable, and a $0.8 million decrease of prepaid expenses and other current assets, partially offset by a $7.1 million decrease of lease liabilities and a $2.3 million decrease in accounts payable. As described in Note 3 –Restructuring and Asset Sales, in connection with the IGE Asset Sale, we estimated the amount of cash proceeds associated with the sale of inventories as $5.0 million and classified the amount within net cash from operating activities. In addition, the Company paid cash of $1.3 million to terminate the facility operating lease in connection with the IGE Asset Sale.

We are also required to make mandatory prepayments in the event of (i) achieving certain excess cash flow criteria, including the achievement and maintenance of a specific leverage ratio, (ii) certain asset sales that are collateral, or (iii) upon the issuance, offering, or placement of new debt obligations. As described in Note 3 –Restructuring and Asset Sales and Note 10 –Debt, we received net cash proceeds of approximately $6.3 million in May 2024 from the IGE Asset Sale and are subject to a provision whereby such net cash proceeds can be reinvested into certain investments, such as capital expenditures. This provision of the Term Loan includes (i) cash investments made within a one-year period from the IGE Asset Sale, and (ii) investments which are contractually committed within one-year of the IGE Asset Sale, and paid within 180 days after entering into such contractual commitment. The amount of any net cash proceeds which are not reinvested would require us to make an offer to prepay the corresponding amount on the Term Loan in 2025. In accordance with this provision, we made a prepayment of $4.5 million during the second quarter of 2025, and had $0.8 million of remaining contractual commitments as of the payment date. The $4.5 million prepayment reduced our required quarterly installment amounts to zero for the remaining term. The foregoing description of the reinvestment provision does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of the Term Loan.
