Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Greenlane Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company changed the composition of its segment information in 2024. We have also audited the adjustments necessary to retrospectively apply the change in the 2023 segment information as provided in Note 12. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the Company’s 2023 financial statements other than with respect to the reclassifications and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2023 financial statements as whole.

We have also audited the adjustments necessary to retrospectively apply the change in the 2023 segment information as provided in Note 12. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.

Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Financial Instruments
As described in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, during 2024, the Company issued shares of its Class A common stock and related pre-funded and common stock warrants (“Warrants”). As disclosed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company classifies its Warrants as equity based on evaluation of terms in the Warrant agreements including, but not limited to, cash settlement provisions and settlement in shares in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815. Management, with the assistance of an independent valuation expert, estimates the fair value of the Warrants issued using Black Scholes models, which take into consideration the volatilities of comparable public companies.
Given the determination of the warrants as equity classified financial instruments and the fair value of Warrants require management to make significant estimates and assumptions regarding the relevant valuation calculations, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve professionals in our firm having the expertise in the valuation of financial instruments.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included:
| ● | evaluated (1) management’s assessment and the Company’s accounting analysis as to the classification of equity instruments, (2) the identification of any derivatives included in the agreements. |
|---|---|
| ● | obtained the Company’s valuation calculation to gain an understanding of management’s key assumptions in determining the fair value of the warrants and assessing the source information underlying the valuation assumptions. |
| ● | with the assistance of our valuation specialists, evaluated the methodologies and assumptions used to assess the Company’s fair value of warrants, including the selection of the valuation methodology and other significant assumptions used by the Company. |
| ● | performed independent shadow calculations to test the reasonableness of the fair values for warrants concluded on by the Company’s specialist. Such calculations assessed the mathematical accuracy of the valuation model and assessed the source information underlying the valuation assumptions used in the model to determine the fair value for the warrants at inception. |
| ● | Assess the appropriateness of the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. |
Going Concern Assessment
As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses from operations for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and net cash used in operating activities was approximately $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company determined these, and other factors which include the Company closing on a definitive agreement to sell $25.0 million of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and investor warrants in February 2025, did not raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements. In making this determination, management prepared a cash flow projection through March 2026. Management used significant assumptions in preparing the cash flow projection, which included expected revenue and cash receipts, operating costs and other obligations.
The principal considerations for our determination that the evaluation of management’s going concern assessment was a critical audit matter are the significant judgment and subjectivity inherent in the Company’s future cash flow estimate and a high degree of auditor judgment in evaluating management’s forecasts for at least the next twelve months.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included:
| ● | assessed the overall reasonableness of the Company's future cash flow projections, including performing sensitivity analysis on the significant assumptions utilized by the Company and comparison to historical trends and other information obtained during the audit |
| ● | compared actual operating results to forecasted amounts to determine the overall reasonableness of future operating cash flow projections. |
| ● | evaluated the adequacy of the Company’s financial statement disclosures |
