Columbia Care Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results

Record Annual Revenue of $511.6 Million, an Increase of 11% YoY

Record Annual Gross Profit of $201.2 Million, an increase of 4% YoY

Record Annual Adjusted EBITDA1 of $67.4 Million, an Increase of 17% YoY

and Annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin1 of 13%, an Increase of 60bps YoY

NEW YORK, N.Y., March 29, 2023 – Columbia Care Inc. (NEO: CCHW) (CSE: CCHW) (OTCQX: CCHWF) (FSE: 3LP) (“Columbia Care” or the “Company”), one of the largest and most experienced cultivators, manufacturers and retailers of cannabis products in the U.S., today reported its financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022. All financial information presented in this release is in U.S. GAAP and in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

“Columbia Care achieved record financial results again in 2022, as we continued to build scale and optimize our portfolio of assets within our strategically diverse retail footprint. Despite cyclicality in the fourth quarter coinciding with ongoing macroeconomic headwinds that impacted both the consumer, and in particular, wholesale market pricing, topline revenue grew to more than $511 million, up 11% over 2021, and we improved our Adjusted EBITDA margin by 60 basis points during that same time period. Our strategic position in the fastest growing markets in the country continues to drive revenue and earnings growth, as we see an increasing contribution from markets such as New Jersey and Virginia,” said Nicholas Vita, CEO of Columbia Care.

Vita continued, “We are focusing our footprint on those markets that can drive the most value for our patients, customers, and shareholders – and reducing exposure in markets that do not contribute to the bottom line. The ongoing operational and financial reprioritization of resources we began implementing in the fourth quarter of 2022, which included a targeted corporate restructuring, multiple cost-reduction measures, several non-core asset divestitures, implementing improvements in cultivation and manufacturing quality and efficiency, and optimizing our liquidity position, will provide a pathway to free cash flow generation in 2023. We are confident in the embedded growth in our strategic footprint and in the expected impact of the improvements we are making to influence our profitability, cash flow and liquidity position.”

Operational Highlights

Enhancing scale and optimizing best-in-class retail network:

 

   

Opened two Cannabist retail locations in Virginia (Carytown & Williamsburg) at the end of Q4 2022, and closed 1 unprofitable retail location (CO) in December 2022, ending the year with 84 active dispensaries

 

   

As part of ongoing efficiency initiatives to enhance profitability announced in January 2023, the Company closed 3 additional unprofitable locations (2 in Colorado, 1 in California) and subsequently signed a definitive agreement to divest 1 unprofitable location in Missouri

 

   

Also in Q1 2023, Company has opened 2 locations in Virginia (Hampton & Colonial Heights), bringing the current active retail location count to 83

 

   

Retail revenue remained flat in Q4 2022, with a slight improvement in same store sales, in spite of pricing headwinds; wholesale revenue declined 30% sequentially due to pricing pressure and intentional inventory management, which negatively impacted Q4 gross margin

 

   

Company’s two active New Jersey retail locations were among the top dispensaries in the portfolio; the third New Jersey retail location is in development

 

   

Virginia topline revenue grew nearly 100% YoY, as new retail locations were added and the patient population continues to grow; Adj. EBITDA Margin for the year increased 19 percentage points over 2021

 

   

Additional dispensaries in development include 4 in Virginia (scheduled to open in 2023), 1 in West Virginia (expected to open this week), 1 in New Jersey (expected to open in 2H 2023), and 1 currently in pursuit in Maryland

Proven cultivation expertise and execution:

 

   

In Q4 2022, the weighted average production cost per pound decreased by 8% across the portfolio

 

   

Enhanced production capabilities supported a shift in retail revenue product mix to include more concentrates, evidenced by a 5-percentage point increase in Q4 2022

 

   

Continued progress on optimization of production planning, genetics selection, environmental controls and plant management across the cultivation portfolio


LOGO

 

   

Cultivation efficiency and standardization across markets continued to improve over prior performance, with multiple states seeing improved potency TAC% through strict adherence to standard operating procedures

Sustained momentum on branding initiatives at retail and product levels:

 

   

In October 2022, launched Hedy, a new cannabis-infused edibles brand, in six markets and in a variety of form factors and flavors; Hedy was developed using insights from our unique technological platforms, such as Forage, that help us better understand what our customers are seeking; Hedy is now available in Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, and Virginia

 

   

During Q4 2022, saw continued growth of Stash Cash, the loyalty program and mobile application that launched in 14 markets in Q3 2022; Stash Cash provides Company with enhanced opportunity to engage and retain customers and patients, as well as insight into customer behaviors and preferences

 

   

In Q1 2023, launched new line of formulated cannabis tablets, Press 2.0, in Delaware, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Virginia and West Virginia

 

   

In-house brands accounted for 61% of all flower sold at Columbia Care dispensaries in Q4 2022 and 66% in FY 2022

 

   

There are now 33 Cannabist locations in the U.S. with 5 additional openings planned in 2023

Capital Markets & Liquidity Highlights

 

   

The Company generated $5.2 million of positive cash flow from operations in Q4 2022 and exited the year with $48.2 million in cash; Company spent approximately $1.9 million of cash in Q4 as a result of cost-savings, low CAPEX and improved working capital management, compared to $31.4 million of cash spend in Q3 2022 – a sequential improvement of $29.5 million

 

   

Capital expenditures in Q4 were approximately $3.4 million and $73.8 million for 2022

 

   

On March 13, 2023, Company signed definitive agreement to divest interests in the Missouri market for approximately $7 million; Missouri market generated $1 million in EBITDA loss in 2022

 

   

On March 28, 2023, Company exercised its unilateral right to extend the maturity date of its 13% senior secured notes in the amount of $38.2 million, originally due May 14, 2023, to May 14, 2024; Company has no debt maturities prior to that date other than approximately $5.6 million convertible note in December 2023

 

   

The corporate restructuring initiatives announced in January 2023, which reduced or exited cultivation operations in 6 markets, closed 4 unprofitable retail stores in Colorado and California, and eliminated approximately 25% of our corporate positions, are expected to generate a net $35 million in annualized savings

 

   

Company has exited several markets and assets that were not accretive to positive cash flow, including closing its CBD and European business and selling its assets in Puerto Rico, which when combined with recent exit of Missouri, will generate an incremental savings of approximately $3 million annually going forward

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, Columbia Care refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin. Columbia Care considers certain non-GAAP measures to be meaningful indicators of the performance of its business. These measures are not recognized measures under GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to (and may be calculated differently by) other companies that present similar measures. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation from nor as a substitute for our financial information reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented. We also recognize that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of companies within our industry.

With respect to non-GAAP financial measures, the Company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) before (i) depreciation and amortization; (ii) income taxes; and (iii) interest expense and debt amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before (i) share-based compensation expense; (ii) goodwill and intangible impairment, (iii) adjustments for acquisition and other non-core costs; (iv) gain on remeasurement of contingent consideration, net, (v) fair value changes on derivative liabilities; and (vi) fair value mark-up for acquired inventory. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue. Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as gross profit before the fair mark-up for acquired inventory. Adjusted Gross Margin is defined as gross margin before the fair mark-up for acquired inventory.


LOGO

 

The Company views these non-GAAP financial measures as a means to facilitate management’s financial and operational decision-making, including evaluation of the Company’s historical operating results and comparison to competitors’ operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company’s operations that, when viewed with GAAP results and the reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measure, may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures are a matter of management judgment and depend upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Because non-GAAP financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company’s reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company’s consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measures are included in this press release and a further discussion of some of these items will be contained in our annual report on Form 10-K.

Exhibit 99.2 FOURTH QUARTER & FULL YEAR 2022 INVESTOR PRESENTATION NEO:CCHW | CSE:CCHW | OTCQX:CCHWF | FSE:3LP March 2023


2 DISCLAIMER AND FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Disclaimer Columbia Care Inc. (the “Company” or “Columbia Care”) derives a substantial portion of its revenues from the cannabis industry in certain U.S. states, which industry is illegal under U.S. federal Law. Columbia Care is directly involved in both the adult-use and medical cannabis industry in the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Massachusetts, Missouri and New Jersey, and in the medical cannabis industry in the states of Delaware, Florida, Maryland, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, the District of Columbia, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia, which states have regulated such industries. The cultivation, processing, sale and use of cannabis are illegal under federal law pursuant to the U.S. Controlled Substance Act of 1970 (the “CSA”). Under the CSA, the policies and regulations of the United States federal government and its agencies are that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities, including cultivation and the personal use of cannabis, are prohibited. The Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution establishes that the United States Constitution and federal laws made pursuant to it are paramount and in case of conflict between federal and state law, the federal law shall apply. Until 2018, the federal government provided guidance to federal law enforcement agencies and banking institutions through a series of United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) memoranda. The most recent such memorandum was drafted by former Deputy Attorney General James Cole in 2013 (the “Cole Memo”). On January 4, 2018, former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued a memorandum to U.S. district attorneys that rescinded previous guidance from the U.S. Department of Justice specific to cannabis enforcement in the United States, including the Cole Memo (as defined herein). The former Attorneys General who succeeded former Attorney General Sessions following his resignation did not provide a clear policy directive for the United States as it pertains to state-legal marijuana-related activities. President Joseph R. Biden was sworn in as the 46th President of the U.S. on January 20, 2021. President Biden nominated Merrick Garland to serve as Attorney General in his administration, and he was confirmed on March 10, 2021. It is not yet known whether the Department of Justice under President Biden and Attorney General Garland will re-adopt the Cole Memorandum or announce a substantive marijuana enforcement policy. Attorney General Garland stated at a confirmation hearing before the United States Senate that “It does not seem to me a useful use of limited resources that we have, to be pursuing prosecutions in states that have legalized and that are regulating the use of marijuana, either medically or otherwise. I don’t think that’s a useful use.” Attorney General Garland reiterated this view at a Senate Appropriations subcommittee hearing on April 26, 2022. Nonetheless, there is no guarantee that state laws legalizing and regulating the sale and use of marijuana will not be repealed or overturned, or that local governmental authorities will not limit the applicability of state laws within their respective jurisdictions. Unless and until the United States Congress amends the CSA with respect to marijuana (and as to the timing or scope of any such potential amendments there can be no assurance), there is a risk that federal authorities may enforce current U.S. federal law. Currently, in the absence of uniform federal guidance, as had been established by the Cole Memo, enforcement priorities are determined by respective United States Attorneys. Columbia Care makes no medical or treatment claims about our products, implied or otherwise, and each patient or customer should consult their treating physician, explore all options, and discuss their personal health to determine whether he or she may be a potential candidate for medical marijuana or other cannabis-derived products. Our products have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). In addition, our products have not been approved by the FDA to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. In addition, we have not conducted clinical trials for the use of our products. Any references to quality, consistency, efficacy and safety of our products are not intended to imply that such claims have been verified in clinical trials. Non-GAAP Financial Measures In this presentation, Columbia Care may refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures, including, without limitation, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Margin. These measures do not have any standardized meaning in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Columbia Care considers certain non-GAAP measures to be meaningful indicators of the performance of its business. A reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to their nearest comparable GAAP measure is included in this presentation and a further discussion of some of these items is contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. Cautionary Note Regarding Securities Laws This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities of Columbia Care, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction.
