Certain of the forward-looking statements contained herein concerning the cannabis industry and the general expectations of TerrAscend concerning the cannabis industry are based on estimates prepared by TerrAscend using data from publicly available governmental sources as well as from market research and industry analysis and on assumptions based on data and knowledge of the cannabis industry. Such data is inherently imprecise. The cannabis industry involves risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on various factors, which factors are described further below.

 

With respect to the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, TerrAscend has made assumptions regarding, among other things: (i) its ability to generate cash flows from operations and obtain necessary financing on acceptable terms; (ii) general economic, financial market, regulatory and political conditions in which TerrAscend operates; (iii) the output from TerrAscend’s operations; (iv) consumer interest in TerrAscend’s products; (v) competition; (vi) anticipated and unanticipated costs; (vii) government regulation of TerrAscend’s activities and products and in the areas of taxation and environmental protection; (viii) the timely receipt of any required regulatory approvals; (ix) TerrAscend’s ability to obtain qualified staff, equipment and services in a timely and cost efficient manner; (x) TerrAscend’s ability to conduct operations in a safe, efficient and effective manner; and (xi) the Company’s construction plans and timeframe for completion of such plans.

 

Readers are cautioned that the above list of cautionary statements is not exhaustive. Known and unknown risks, many of which are beyond the control of TerrAscend, could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, current and future market conditions; risks related to federal, state, provincial, territorial, local and foreign government laws, rules and regulations, including federal and state laws in the United States ("U.S.") relating to cannabis operations in the U.S.; and those discussed under Item 1A – “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 16, 2023 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The purpose of forward-looking statements is to provide the reader with a description of management’s expectations, and such forward-looking statements may not be appropriate for any other purpose. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. TerrAscend can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are based on the beliefs, estimates, expectations and opinions of management on the date such forward-looking statements are made. TerrAscend undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, estimates or opinions, future events or results or otherwise or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law.

TerrAscend Corp.

Notes to the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Amounts expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except for share and per share amounts)

1. Nature of operations

 

TerrAscend Corp. (“TerrAscend” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Ontario Business Corporations Act on March 7, 2017. TerrAscend provides cannabis products, brands, and services to the United States (“U.S.”) and Canadian cannabinoid markets where cannabis production or consumption has been legalized for therapeutic or adult use. TerrAscend operates a number of synergistic businesses, including Gage Growth ("Gage"), a cultivator, processor and retailer in Michigan; KISA Enterprises MI, LLC and KISA Holdings LLC (collectively "Pinnacle"); The Apothecarium (“The Apothecarium”), a cannabis dispensary with several retail locations in California, Pennsylvania and New Jersey; TerrAscend NJ, LLC ("TerrAscend NJ"), a cultivator, processor and retailer with operations in New Jersey; Ilera Healthcare (“Ilera”), Pennsylvania’s medical cannabis cultivator, processor and dispenser; HMS Health, LLC and HMS Processing, LLC (collectively “HMS”), a medical cannabis cultivator and processor based in Maryland; Valhalla Confections, a manufacturer of cannabis-infused edibles; and State Flower, a California-based cannabis producer operating a licensed cultivation facility in San Francisco. Notwithstanding various states in the U.S. which have implemented medical marijuana laws, or which have otherwise legalized the use of cannabis, the use of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law for any purpose, by way of the Controlled Substances Act of 1970.

 

On January 27, 2023, the Company closed on its previously announced acquisition of Allegany Medical Marijuana Dispensary ("AMMD"). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company acquired 100% equity interest in AMMD for total consideration of $10,000 in cash, in addition to entering into a long-term lease with the option to purchase the real estate. The Company now operates vertically integrated licensed operations in Maryland.

 

The Company has been listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") since May 3, 2017, having the ticker symbol "TER" and effective October 22, 2018, the Company began trading on OTCQX under the ticker symbol "TRSSF". The Company’s registered office is located at 77 City Centre Drive, Suite 501, Mississauga, Ontario, L5B 1M5.

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 condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these unaudited interim condensed 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, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the year ended December 31, 2023, or any other interim or future periods.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value as described herein. At March 31, 2023, TerrAscend had an accumulated deficit of $641,517. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, TerrAscend incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $19,178. Additionally, as of March 31, 2023 the Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets. Therefore, TerrAscend expects that it will need additional capital to continue to fund its operations.

The aforementioned indicators raise substantial doubt about TerrAscend's ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements. TerrAscend believes this concern is mitigated by steps to improve its operations and cash position, including (i) identifying access to future capital, (ii) continued sales growth from TerrAscend's consolidated operations, and (iii) various actions that were implemented during the latter part of 2022 and continued during the three months ended March 31, 2023 leading to general and administrative expense reductions and other cost and efficiency improvements.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed 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, 2022 contained in the Company's 2022 Form 10-K. 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, 2022 in the Company's 2022 Form 10-K other than noted below.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company has an Employee Retention Credit ("ERC") for qualified wages of $14,903 which was included in other receivables in the table above at December 31, 2022. During January 2023, the Company received $12,667, pursuant to a financing agreement with a third-party lender. In exchange, the Company assigned to the lender its interests in the $14,903 ERC claim that was submitted during December 2022. The difference between the amount of the claim and the amount received from the lender is the employee retention credits transfer fee which is equal to 15% of the total claim amount. The framework prescribed in ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing was reviewed and management has concluded that this should be accounted for as an asset transfer with recourse. This fee is included in finance and other expenses. If the Company does not receive the ERC claim, in whole or in part, the Company is required to repay the related portion of the funds received plus interest of 10% accrued from the date of the financing agreement through the repayment date. The Company’s obligation under the financing agreement will be satisfied upon receipt of the ERC claim or other full repayment. Management has concluded that collection remains probable and no additional recourse obligation was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Acquisitions

 

AMMD

 

On January 27, 2023, TerrAscend closed on its previously announced acquisition of AMMD, a medical dispensary in Cumberland, Maryland. The acquisition adds the Company’s first retail store in Maryland and complements TerrAscend's cultivation and processing facility in Hagerstown, Maryland. Under the terms of the agreement, TerrAscend acquired a 100% equity interest in AMMD for total consideration of $10,000 in cash, in addition to entering into a long-term lease with the option to purchase the real estate. The cash consideration paid included repayments of indebtedness and transaction expenses on behalf of AMMD of $160 and $29, respectively.

 

The following table presents the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the January 27, 2023 acquisition date and allocation of the consideration to net assets acquired:

The acquired intangible assets include a medical license, which is treated as a definite-lived intangible asset and amortized over a 30-year period.

The consideration paid reflected the synergies, economies of scale, and workforce. These benefits were not recognized separately from goodwill because they do not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The accounting for this acquisition has been provisionally determined at March 31, 2023. The fair value of net assets acquired, specifically with respect to inventory, intangible assets, property and equipment, operating right of use assets, lease liabilities, corporate income taxes payable, deferred tax liability, and goodwill have been determined provisionally and are subject to adjustment. Upon completion of a comprehensive valuation and finalization of the purchase price allocation, the amounts above may be adjusted retrospectively to the acquisition date in future reporting periods.

Costs related to this transaction were $191, including legal, accounting, due diligence, and other transaction-related expenses. Of the total amount of transaction costs, $36 and $99 were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration recorded relates to the Company’s business acquisitions. Contingent consideration is based upon the potential earnout of the underlying business unit and is measured at fair value using a projection model for the business and the formulaic structure for determining the consideration under the terms of the agreement.

The balance of contingent consideration is as follows:

Certain assets of TerrAscend Canada were determined to be held for sale as they met the criteria under ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment. TerrAscend Canada operated out of a 67,300 square foot facility located in Mississauga, Ontario. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of its carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. As of March 31, 2023, the Company determined the fair market value of the building based on the listing price and related commission and determined that the fair value was lower than its carrying value and therefore recorded impairment of $3,064. The fair value less cost to sell was included in assets held for sale in the Consolidated Financial Statements at March 31, 2023.

A sale-leaseback transaction occurs when an entity sells an asset it owns and then immediately leases the asset back from the buyer. The seller then becomes the lessee and the buyer becomes to the lessor. Under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 842, both parties must assess whether the buyer-lessor has obtained control of the asset and a sale has occurred. Through the Gage Acquisition, the Company entered into leaseback transactions on six properties of owned real estate. The Company has determined that these transactions do not qualify as a sale because control was not transferred to the buyer-lessor. Therefore, the Company has classified the lease portion of the transaction as a finance lease and continues to depreciate the asset. The Gage acquisition included financing obligations. The balance at March 31, 2023 was $11,809. Of this amount, $830 is included in other current liabilities

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 US 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, 2023 and 2022 was $4,263 and $2,511, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, there was $24,540 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of TerrAscend's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with TerrAscend's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial information and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 16, 2023, or the Annual Report. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q including information with respect to TerrAscend's plans and strategy for its business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report, its actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by the "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the following discussion and analysis.

 

Unless otherwise noted, dollar amounts in this Item 2 are in thousands of U.S. dollars.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of TerrAscend is for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and the accompanying notes for each respective period.

 

Overview

 

TerrAscend is a leading North American cannabis operator with vertically integrated licensed operations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Michigan, Maryland and California, and is a cannabis retailer in Ontario, Canada with a minority-owned dispensary in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. TerrAscend’s cultivation and manufacturing practices yield consistent and high-quality cannabis, providing industry-leading product selection to both the medical and legal adult-use markets. Notwithstanding the fact that various states in the U.S. have implemented medical marijuana laws or that have otherwise legalized the use of cannabis, the use of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law for any purpose, by way of the Controlled Substances Act of 1970.

 

TerrAscend operates under one operating segment, which is the cultivation, production and sale of cannabis products.

TerrAscend owns a portfolio of operating businesses and several synergistic brands including:

 

Gage Growth ("Gage"), a vertically integrated cannabis cultivator, processor and dispensary operator in Michigan;
KISA Enterprises MI, LLC and KISA Holdings, LLC (collectively "Pinnacle"), a dispensary operator in Michigan;
Ilera Healthcare ("Ilera"), a vertically integrated cannabis cultivator, processor and dispensary operator in Pennsylvania;
TerrAscend NJ, LLC (“TerrAscend NJ”), a majority owned subsidiary that operates three dispensaries in New Jersey with the ability to cultivate and process;
HMS Health, LLC (“HMS Health”) and HMS Processing, LLC (“HMS Processing” and together with HMS Health, “HMS”), a producer and seller of dried flower and oil products for the wholesale medical cannabis market in Maryland;
Allegany Medical Marijuana Dispensary ("AMMD"), a medical dispensary in Cumberland, Maryland;
The Apothecarium, consisting of retail dispensaries in California, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey;
Valhalla Confections, a provider of premium edible products;
State Flower, a California-based cannabis producer operating a licensed cultivation facility in San Francisco, California;
TerrAscend Canada (“TerrAscend Canada” or “TCI”) is a cannabis retailer in Ontario, Canada with a minority-owned dispensary in Toronto, Ontario, Canada ("Cookies Canada"). TerrAscend Canada was previously a Licensed Producer (as such term is defined in the Cannabis Act) of cannabis until TerrAscend commenced an optimization of its operations in Canada, whereby TerrAscend reduced its manufacturing footprint in order to focus on its Cookies Canada retail business, as well as monetize its intellectual property portfolio in Canada. TerrAscend ceased operations at its manufacturing facility during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and increased its ownership interest in Cookies Retail Canada Corp. to 95% of the issued and outstanding shares.

 

TerrAscend’s head office and registered office is located at 77 City Centre Drive, Suite 501 - East Tower, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, L5B 1M5.

Components of Results of Operations

 

The following discussion sets forth certain components of our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss as well as factors that impact those items.

 

Revenue

 

TerrAscend generates revenue from the sale of cannabis products, brands, and services to the United States and Canadian markets. Revenues consist of wholesale and retail sales in the medical and legal adult use market across Canada and in several U.S. states where cannabis has been legalized for medical or adult use.

 

Cost of sales

Cost of sales primarily consists of expenses related to providing cannabis products and services to TerrAscend's customers, including personnel-related expenses, the depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and other overhead costs.

 

General and administrative

 

General and administrative ("G&A") consists primarily of personnel costs related to finance, human resources, legal, and other administrative functions. Additionally G&A expense includes professional fees to third parties, as well as marketing expenses. In addition, G&A expense includes share-based compensation on options, restricted stock units and warrants. TerrAscend expects that G&A expense will increase in absolute dollars as the business grows.

 

Amortization and depreciation

 

Amortization and depreciation includes the amortization of intangible assets. Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis over the following terms:

 

Brand intangibles- indefinite lives

Indefinite useful lives

Brand intangibles- definite lives

3 years

Software

5 years

Licenses

5-30 years

Customer relationships

5 years

Non-compete agreements

3 years

 

Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset using the following terms:

 

Buildings and improvements

Lesser of useful life or 30 years

Land

Not depreciated

Machinery & equipment

5-15 years

Office furniture & production equipment

3-5 years

Right of use assets

Lease term

Assets in process

Not depreciated

 

Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill

 

Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment annually and whenever there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying amount has been impaired. TerrAscend first performs a qualitative assessment. If based on the results of a qualitative assessment it has been determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds

25


 

its carrying value, additional quantitative impairment test is performed which compares the carrying value of the reporting unit to its estimated fair value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, an impairment is recorded.

 

Definite lived intangible assets are tested for impairment when there are indications that an asset may be impaired. When indicators of impairment exist, TerrAscend performs a quantitative impairment test which compares the carrying value of the assets for intangible assets to their estimated fair values. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, an impairment is recorded.

 

(Gain) loss from revaluation of contingent consideration

 

As a result of some of its acquisitions, TerrAscend recognizes a contingent consideration payable, which is an obligation to transfer additional assets to the seller if future events occur. The liability is revalued at the end of each reporting period to determine its fair value. A gain or loss is recognized as a result of the revaluation.

 

(Gain) loss on fair value of warrants and purchase option derivative asset

 

During the year ended December 31, 2020, TerrAscend closed a non-brokered private placement by issuing 18,679 convertible preferred stock units, each unit consisting of one non-voting, non-participating preferred share and one preferred share warrant ("Preferred Warrant"). The Preferred Warrants were recorded as a warrant liability and are remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting unit using the Black Scholes model. A gain or loss is recognized as a result of the revaluation.

 

Finance and other expenses

 

Finance and other expenses consists primarily of interest expense on TerrAscend's outstanding debt obligations.

 

Transaction and restructuring costs

 

Transaction costs include costs incurred in connection with TerrAscend's acquisitions, such as expenses related to professional fees, consulting, legal and accounting. Restructuring costs are those costs associated with severance and restructuring of business units.

 

Impairment of property and equipment

 

TerrAscend evaluates the recoverability of property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset, or asset group, may not be recoverable. When TerrAscend determines that the carrying value of the long-lived asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more indicators, the assets are assessed for impairment based on the estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded for the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value.

 

Unrealized and realized foreign exchange loss

 

Unrealized and realized foreign exchange loss represents the loss recognized on the remeasurement of USD denominated cash and other assets recorded in the Canadian dollars functional currency at TerrAscend's Canadian operations.

 

Unrealized and realized gain on investments

 

TerrAscend accounts for its investment in equity securities without readily determinable fair values using a valuation technique which maximizes the use of relevant observable inputs, with subsequent holding changes in fair value recognized in unrealized gain or loss on investments in the consolidated statement of loss.

 

Provision for income taxes

 

Provision for income taxes consists of U.S. federal and state income taxes in certain jurisdictions in which TerrAscend conducts business.

Revenue increased from $49,060 to $69,720 driven by growth in retail offset by a decline in wholesale. Retail revenue increased from $25,718 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 to $55,422 during the three months-ended March 31, 2023. The increase is primarily a result of adult use coming online in New Jersey in April 2022 and the Gage acquisition, which closed on March 10, 2022. The increase in retail revenue is partially offset by $8,891 decrease in wholesale revenue related to the company’s decision to discontinue bulk wholesale sales in Michigan.

The increase of $2,537 in cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 is mainly a result of the Gage, Pinnacle and AMMD acquisitions. The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue is primarily a result of greater operating leverage driven by adult use implementation in New Jersey in April 2022.

 

The company wrote off $797 of packaging inventory due primarily to defective cartridges during the three months ended March 31, 2023. On February 4, 2022, more than 500 vape products were recalled by the Pennsylvania's Department of Health, including several of the Company's SKUs. As a result of the recall, the Company wrote off $854 of inventory during the three months ended March 31,2022. In addition, management impaired its inventory by $219 as it was deemed unsaleable.

The Preferred Share warrant liability has been remeasured to fair value at March 31, 2023 using the Black Scholes model. The Company recognized a gain during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as a result of the reduction of the Company's share price from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023, as well as from warrants exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The combined impact resulted in a gain on fair value of warrants of $438 for the three months ended March 31.2023.

The Preferred Share warrant liability was remeasured to fair value at March 31, 2022 using the Black Scholes model.

Liquidity and going concern

 

At March 31, 2023, TerrAscend had an accumulated deficit of $641,517. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, TerrAscend incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $19,178. Additionally, as of March 31, 2023 the Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets. Therefore, TerrAscend expects that it will need additional capital to continue to fund its operations.

The aforementioned indicators raise substantial doubt about TerrAscend's ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements. TerrAscend believes this concern is mitigated by steps to improve its operations and cash position, including (i) identifying access to future capital, (ii) continued sales growth from TerrAscend's consolidated operations, and (iii) various actions that were implemented during the latter part of 2022 and continued during the three months ended March 31, 2023 leading to general and administrative expense reductions and other cost and efficiency improvements.

 

Since its inception, TerrAscend's primary sources of capital have been through the issuance of equity securities or debt facilities, and TerrAscend has received aggregate net proceeds from such transactions totaling $608,315 as of March 31, 2023.

 

TerrAscend expects to fund any additional future requirements through the following sources of capital:

cash from ongoing operations.
market offerings.
additional debt from additional creditors.
sale of real property.
sale leaseback transactions.
exercise of options and warrants.

 

Capital requirements

The Company has $198,894 in principal amounts of loans payable at March 31, 2023. Of this amount, $48,292 are due within the next twelve months.

 

29


 

TerrAscend has entered into leases for certain premises and offices for which it owes monthly lease payments. TerrAscend has $74,457 in lease obligations. Of this amount, $6,264 are due in the next twelve months. Additionally, TerrAscend makes monthly payments on financing obligations on six of its real estate properties with $15,161 payable, $1,926 of which is due in the next twelve months

TerrAscend's undiscounted contingent consideration payable is $4,434 at March 31, 2023. The contingent consideration payable relates to TerrAscend's business acquisitions of the Apothecarium and State Flower and is due in the next twelve months.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2020, TerrAscend expensed $7,500 related to amounts payable to an entity controlled by the minority shareholders of TerrAscend NJ pursuant to services surrounding the granting of certain licenses. The final payment of $3,750 is expected to be due in 2023.

 

At March 31, 2023, the Company had accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $50,784 and corporate income taxes payable of $34,737.

 

TerrAscend does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on TerrAscend's results of operations or financial condition, including and without limitation, such consideration as liquidity and capital resources.

 

TerrAscend intends to meet its capital commitments through any or all of the sources of capital noted above. TerrAscend's objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure it has sufficient cash resources to maintain its ongoing operations and finance future obligations.

 

Debt facilities

 

Ilera Term Loan

 

On December 18, 2020, WDB Holding PA, a subsidiary of TerrAscend, entered into a senior secured term loan with a syndicate of lenders in the amount of $120,000 ("Ilera Term Loan"). The term loan bears interest at 12.875% per annum and matures on December 17, 2024. TerrAscend has the ability to increase the facility by up to $30,000. WDB Holding PA's obligation under the Ilera Term Loan and related transaction documents are guaranteed by TerrAscend, TerrAscend USA, Inc., and certain subsidiaries of WDB Holding PA, and secured by TerrAscend USA Inc.'s equity interest in WDB Holding PA and substantially all of the assets of WDB Holding PA and the subsidiary guarantors party thereto. The loan can be refinanced at the option of the borrower after 18 months from the closing date subject to a premium payment due. Of the total proceeds received, $105,767 was used to satisfy the remaining Ilera earn-out payments.

 

On April 28, 2022, the Ilera Term Loan was amended to provide WDB Holding PA with greater flexibility by resetting the minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio levels that must be satisfied at the end of each measurement period and extending the date in which WDB Holding PA is required to deliver its budget for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. In addition, the no-call period was extended from 18 months to 30 months, subject to a premium payment. This modification was not considered extinguishment of debt under ASC 470 Debt.

 

On November 11, 2022, WDB Holding PA, TerrAscend, TerrAscend USA Inc. and the subsidiary guarantors party to the Ilera Term Loan and the PA Agent (on behalf of the required lenders) entered into an amendment to the PA Credit Agreement, pursuant to which PA Agent and the required lenders agreed that WDB Holding PA's obligation to maintain the consolidated interest coverage ratio as set forth in the PA Credit Agreement for the period ended September 30, 2022, shall not apply, subject to certain conditions, including (but not limited to) an obligation to enter into a subsequent amendment agreement on or before December 15, 2022, documenting certain enhancements and amendments to the PA Credit Agreement to be agreed. In addition, WDB Holding PA offered a prepayment of $5,000 pro rata to all lenders holding outstanding loans thereunder at a price equal to 103.22% of the principal amount prepaid, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

 

On December 21, 2022, WDB Holding PA completed an amendment to reduce TerrAscend's principal debt by $35,000 and annual interest expense by $5,000. TerrAscend agreed to make a $35,000 payment at the original prepayment price of 103.22% to par, and agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to add certain collateral to Ilera Term Loan, collectively by March 15, 2023. The amendment further provided that should WDB Holding PA not maintain the prescribed interest coverage ratio, the Company shall be required to deposit funds, as outlined in the amendment, into a restricted account, and no event of default shall occur. This amendment was not considered extinguishment of debt under ASC 470 Debt.

 

On March 15, 2023, WDB Holding PA, in exchange for a fee in the amount of 1% of the then outstanding principal loan balance, agreed to an amendment among other things, to (i) extend the obligation date to prepay TerrAscend's debt from March 15, 2023 to June 30,

30


 

2023 in which WDB Holding PA must use commercially reasonable efforts to add additional collateral to the Ilera Term Loan, (ii) increase the amount of debt to be reduced by up to $37,000, subject to certain reductions in amount based on meeting certain time based milestones, at a prepayment price of 103.22% to par, and (iii) extend the next test date in respect of the interest coverage ratio until June 30, 2023. This amendment was not considered extinguishment of debt under ASC 470 Debt. There is $115,000 of principal amounts outstanding at March 31, 2023.

 

Gage Loans

 

The Gage Acquisition included a senior secured term loan (the "Original Gage Term Loan") with an acquisition date fair value of $53,857. The credit agreement bears interest at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Prime Rate plus 7% or (ii) 10.25%. The term loan is payable monthly and matures on November 30, 2022. The term loan is secured by a first lien on all Gage assets.

 

On August 10, 2022, the Original Gage Term Loan was amended as a result of the corporate restructure in conjunction with the Gage Acquisition. The amendment to the Original Gage Term Loan includes the addition of a borrower and guarantor under the term loan and a right of first offer in favor of the administrative agent for a refinancing of the term loan. This amendment was not considered extinguishment of debt under ASC 470 Debt.

 

On November 29, 2022, TerrAscend repaid $30,000 outstanding principal amount on the Original Gage Term Loan. On November 30, 2022, the remaining loan principal amount of $25,000 on the Original Gage Term Loan was amended (the "Amended Gage Term Loan"). The Amended Gage Term Loan bears interest on $25,000 at a per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) the U.S. "prime rate" plus 6.00%, and (ii) 13.0% and matures on November 1, 2024. Commencing on May 31, 2023, TerrAscend will make monthly principal repayments of 0.40% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding. Additionally, the unpaid principal amount of the loan shall bear paid in kind interest at a rate of 1.50% per annum. No prepayment fees are owed if TerrAscend voluntarily prepays the loan after 18 months. If such prepayment occurs prior to 18 months, a prepayment fee equal to all of the interest on the loans that would be due after the date of such prepayment, is owed. Under the Amended Gage Term Loan, TerrAscend has the ability to borrow incremental term loans of $30,000 at the option of TerrAscend and subject to consents from the required lenders. The additional $30,000 incremental term loans available under the amendment have not been drawn as of December 31, 2022. This loan represents a loan syndication, and therefore TerrAscend assessed each of the lenders separately under ASC 470 Debt to determine if this represents a modification, or an extinguishment of debt. For three of the four remaining lenders, it was determined that this was a modification. For the remaining lender, it was determined that this represented an extinguishment of debt and therefore the fees paid to the lenders on modification were expensed. As a result of this transaction, TerrAscend expensed $1,907 of fees paid to the lenders and third parties as they did not meet the criteria for capitalization under ASC 470 Debt.

 

Additionally, the Gage Acquisition included a loan payable to a former owner of a licensed entity with an acquisition date fair value of $2,683, and a promissory note with an acquisition date fair value of $4,065. The loan payable to the former owner bears interest at a rate of 0.2%. The promissory note bears interest at a rate of 6%. There is $4,583 of principal amounts outstanding at March 31, 2023 on the loan payable and promissory note.

 

Pinnacle Loans

 

The Pinnacle Acquisition purchase price included two promissory notes in an aggregate amount of $10,000 to pay down all Pinnacle liabilities and encumbrances. The promissory note matures on June 30, 2023 and bears interest rates of 6%. There is $8,833 of principal amounts outstanding at March 31, 2023 on the two promissory notes.

 

Pelorus Term Loan

 

On October 11, 2022, subsidiaries of TerrAscend, among others, entered into a loan agreement with Pelorus Fund REIT, LLC ("Pelorus") for a single-draw senior secured term loan ("Pelorus Term Loan") in an aggregate principal amount of $45,478. The Pelorus Term Loan bears interest at a variable rate tied to the one month secured overnight financing rate (SOFR), subject to a base rate, plus 9.5%, with interest-only payments for the first 36 months. The base rate is defined as, on any day, the greatest of (i) 2.5%, (b) the effective federal funds rate in effect on such day plus 0.5%, and (c) one month SOFR in effect on such day. The obligations of the borrowers under the Pelorus Term Loan are guaranteed by TerrAscend, TerrAscend USA Inc. and certain other subsidiaries of TerrAscend and secured by all of the assets of TerrAscend's Maryland and New Jersey businesses, including certain real estate in Maryland and New Jersey, but excluding the AMMD. The Pelorus Term Loan matures on October 11, 2027. There is $45,478 of principal amounts outstanding at March 31, 2023.

The cash provided by financing activities was offset by payments of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of State Flower of $6,630.

 

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

 

In addition to reporting the financial results in accordance with GAAP, TerrAscend reports certain financial results that differ from what is reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP measures used by management do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. TerrAscend believes that certain investors and analysts use these measures to measure a company’s ability to meet other payment obligations or as a common measurement to value companies in the cannabis industry, and TerrAscend calculates (i) Adjusted gross profit as gross profit from continuing operations adjusted for certain material non-cash items, and (ii) Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as EBITDA from continuing operations adjusted for certain material non-cash items and certain other adjustments which management believes are not reflective of the ongoing operations and performance. Such information is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

32


 

TerrAscend believes Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is a useful performance measure to assess the performance of TerrAscend as it provides more meaningful ongoing operating results by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of TerrAscend’s underlying business performance and other one-time or non-recurring expenses. The table below reconciles net loss to EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated as earnings from continuing operations before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization.
b)
In connection with TerrAscend's acquisitions, inventory was acquired at fair value, which included a markup or markdown for profit. Recording inventory at fair value in purchase accounting has the effect of increasing or decreasing inventory and thereby increasing or decreasing cost of sales as compared to the amounts TerrAscend would have recognized if the inventory was sold through at cost.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, the Company's future financial statements will be affected.

There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting estimates from the information provided in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation," included in the 2022 Form 10-K.

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that the Company (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

 

The Company will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier to occur of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of its initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more, or (c) in which the Company is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700.0 million as of the prior June 30th ; and (ii) the date on which the Company has issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes in the Company's primary risk exposures or management of market risks from those disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2023 our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

In the ordinary course of business, TerrAscend is involved in a number of lawsuits incidental to its business, including litigation related to intellectual property, employment, and commercial matters. Although it is difficult to predict the ultimate outcome of these cases, management believes that any ultimate liability would not have a material adverse effect on TerrAscend's consolidated balance sheets or results of operations. At March 31, 2023, there were no pending lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of TerrAscend's consolidated financial statements.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors described in Part I, Item 1.A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report. We may disclose changes to risk factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may impair our business operations.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

None.
