Jushi Holdings Inc. Announces Purchase of Dalitso LLC Facility and Land in Prince William County, VA

Jushi Holdings Inc. (“Jushi” or the “Company”) (CSE: JUSH) (OTCMKTS: JUSHF), vertically integrated, multi-state cannabis operator, announced it signed a definitive agreement to purchase the 93,000 sq. ft. facility (the “Facility”), operated by its wholly-owned subsidiary and Virginia-based pharmaceutical processor, Dalitso LLC (“Dalitso”), together with approximately nine acres of surrounding land in Prince William County, Virginia, for approximately $22 million (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition, together with Dalitso’s planned buildout of the Facility, will enable Dalitso to efficiently produce a consistent supply of medical cannabis products as patient access improves and as the medical cannabis program matures and expands. The Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021.

“The Virginia cannabis market is an area of strategic focus for Jushi given Dalitso’s strong position in the most densely populated region in the Commonwealth,” said Jim Cacioppo, Chief Executive Officer, Chairman, and Founder of Jushi. “Through the completion of this acquisition, Dalitso will have the expansion capacity required to scale cultivation and processing to meet the anticipated patient demand of a growing program. Jushi is dedicated to providing patients with best-in-class products and dispensing experiences that go beyond expectations. To that end, we look forward to the continued build out of our Facility so we can best serve registered patients. Separately, we were pleased to see Governor Northam and the General Assembly respond to their constituents by moving the effective date of legal possession date for small amounts of cannabis forward to July 1, 2021. We hope the Governor and General Assembly will act expeditiously and with similar decisiveness to authorize legal procurement so Virginians without a medical certification have access to safe and controlled cannabis products in a regulated market without material delay.”

In December 2020, Jushi announced it completed the acquisition of the remaining 21% of the issued and outstanding equity of Dalitso, bringing its ownership to 100%. Jushi also announced in December 2020 that Dalitso had commenced operations at the Manassas facility and officially began serving patients at its BEYOND / HELLO Manassas location.

Dalitso is one of only five applicants to have received conditional approval for a pharmaceutical processor permit issued by the Virginia Board of Pharmacy, and one of only four to have received final approval and permit issuance in the Commonwealth. Dalitso’s permit allows Dalitso to cultivate, process, dispense, and deliver medical cannabis to registered patients in Virginia. The designated area for Dalitso to operate is Health Service Area II, in Northern Virginia, which includes two of Virginia’s most densely populated counties, Fairfax and Prince William, and has a population of approximately 2.5 million people or nearly 30% of the state’s total population according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
