Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 U.S. GAAP Financial Highlights (in $ thousands, excl. margin items):

“In 2023, we successfully produced topline revenue of $511 million, consistent with the prior year, and implemented significant cost reduction programs that resulted in Adjusted EBITDA and net loss improvements over 2022. In addition, we further improved our capital structure through the retirement of $30.6 million of debt in the fourth quarter. It is a credit to the Cannabist team to have achieved these accomplishments during a year when we unwound the prior merger agreement,” said David Hart, CEO of The Cannabist Company.

He continued, “We began 2024 with renewed focus as The Cannabist Company. We are committed to continuously improving our operations and leveraging the investments that we have made in cultivation and manufacturing facilities by shifting the wholesale mix toward finished goods and engaging in strategic partnerships. We will continue to optimize our retail footprint and capitalize on the significant growth opportunities to come from markets transitioning to adult use. We remain committed to achieving long-term, sustainable margin improvement and cash flow generation, and we are intently focused on driving shareholder value over the mid-term. I am proud of our team’s incredible resilience and the inspiring passion for our business that will enable us to seize on the opportunities before us.”
