Revenue in the fourth quarter of 2020 (“Q4 2020”) increased 29.6% to $32.3 million, compared to $24.9 million in the third quarter of 2020 (“Q3 2020”). For the full year 2020, revenue increased 689.6% to $80.8 million, compared to $10.2 million in 2019. For the fourth quarter 2020, the increase in revenue was primarily driven by strong organic growth at the Company’s BEYOND/HELLOTM stores in Pennsylvania and Illinois, an increase in cultivation and manufacturing activity due to the acquisition of Pennsylvania Medical Solutions, LLC (“PAMS”), a Pennsylvania grower-processor permit holder, and increased operating activity at its Nevada cultivation and processing facility. For the full year 2020, the increase in revenue was primarily driven by the expansion of the Company’s retail portfolio, including the addition of nine new stores during the year, and an increase in wholesale revenue, driven by the acquisition of PAMS and increased operating activity at its Nevada cultivation and processing facility.

Gross profit in Q4 2020 was $19.2 million, or 59.4% of revenue compared to $12.3 million or 49.2% of revenue in Q3 2020. For the full year 2020, gross profit was $43.1 million, or 53.3% of revenue, compared to $4.8 or 47.2% of revenue in 2019. The increases in gross profit was primarily driven by the increase in revenue and an increase in unrealized gains on biological assets.

Q4 2020 net loss was $156.7 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $30.0 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, in Q3 2020. The $126.7 million increase in net loss in the fourth quarter was driven primarily by an increase in the derivative warrant liability prompted by the rise of the Company’s share price and an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by higher revenue and gross profit. Full year 2020 net loss was $211.9 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $30.8 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA1 in Q4 2020 was $2.6 million, or 8.2% of revenue, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 million, or 7.7% of revenue, in Q3 2020. Adjusted EBITDA1 for the full year 2020 was a negative $2.6 million. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by strong organic growth at the Company’s BEYOND/HELLOTM stores in Pennsylvania and Illinois, and initial contributions from its recently acquired subsidiary Pennsylvania Medical Solutions, LLC (“PAMS”), a Pennsylvania grower-processor permit holder, partially offset by an increase in staffing related costs in advance of certain assets becoming fully operational and revenue generating.

Revenue in the first quarter of 2021 (“Q1 2021”) increased 29.0% to $41.7 million, compared to $32.3 million in Q4 2020. The 29.0% increase in revenue was driven primarily by solid revenue growth at the Company’s BEYOND/HELLOTM stores in Pennsylvania and Illinois, early revenue contributions from its Virginia retail operations and increased operating activity at its PAMS and Nevada facilities.

Gross profit in Q1 2021 was $20.1 million, or 48.2% of revenue, compared to $19.2 million, or 59.4% of revenue in Q4 2020. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by strong revenue growth at the Company’s BEYOND/HELLOTM stores in Pennsylvania and Illinois, early revenue contributions from its Virginia retail operations and increased operating activity at its PAMS and Nevada facilities.

Q1 2021 net loss was $26.8 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $156.7 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, in Q4 2020. The $129.9 million improvement in net loss in the first quarter was driven primarily by a decrease in fair value losses on derivative liabilities, along with higher revenue and gross profit.

Adjusted EBITDA1 in Q1 2021 was $3.0 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA $2.6 million in Q4 2020. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA on a sequential quarterly basis was driven by higher revenues and gross profit, partially offset by an increase in staffing related expenses in advance of new store openings, the increase in staffing at our Ohio facility before the commencement of operations, and the expansion of our Pennsylvania and Virginia grower-processor assets grower-processor assets.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $167.9 million of cash and short-term investments. Total current assets of $197.0 million and current liabilities of $49.6 million as of March 31, 2021. Net working capital at the end of March 31, 2021 was $147.3 million. The Company incurred approximately $9 million in cash capital expenditures during the first quarter of 2021. The Company expects to incur a total of approximately $90 million to $110 million in capital expenditures during 2021, subject to market conditions and regulatory changes. As of March 31 2021, the Company had $82.4 million principal amount of total debt, excluding leases and property, plant and equipment financing obligations.

Outlook

Mr. Cacioppo commented, “For the second quarter of 2021, we expect revenues to be between $45 to $48 million and Adjusted EBITDA to be between $4 to $6 million. We continue to believe our strong momentum, enviable footprint, and solid balance sheet positions the Company well to execute on its current plans and drive long-term shareholder value through 2021 and beyond.”

JUSHI HOLDINGS INC.
RECONCILIATION OF NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that are not defined under IFRS. Management believes EBITDA is a useful measure to assess the performance of the Company as it provides meaningful operating results by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of our operating business performance. Management defines EBITDA as net income (loss), or “earnings”, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure to assess the performance of the Company as it provides more meaningful operating results by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of the Company’s operating business performance and other one-time or non- recurring expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before: (i) fair value changes included in inventory sold and fair value changes included in biological assets; (ii) share-based compensation expense; (iii) fair value changes in derivatives; (iv) net gains on business combinations; (v) gains and losses on investments and financial assets; (vi) net loss on debt and warrant modification; (vii) gains and losses on legal settlements; (viii) pre-acquisition expense; (ix) listing expense; and (x) goodwill impairment. The financial measures noted above are metrics that have been adjusted from the IFRS net income (loss) measure in an effort to provide readers with a normalized metric in making comparisons more meaningful across the cannabis industry, as well as to remove non-recurring, irregular and one-time items that may otherwise distort the IFRS net income measure. Other companies in the Jushi’s industry may calculate this measure differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized performance measure under IFRS, does not have a standardized meaning and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Adjusted EBITDA is included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe that such measurement provides a better assessment of the Company’s operations on a continuing basis by eliminating certain material non-cash items and certain other adjustments we believe are not reflective of the Company’s ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool as it excludes from net income as reported interest, tax, depreciation, non-cash expenses, RTO expense, other income, grow cost expensed for biological assets and unsold inventory, and the non-cash fair value effects of accounting for biological assets and inventories. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as the sole measure of the Company’s performance and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of the Company’s results as reported under IFRS. The most directly comparable measure to Adjusted EBITDA calculated in accordance with IFRS is operating income (loss).

Jushi includes a store in the same-store base if the store is operational for two consecutive full quarters. A store is not included in same-store sales if it is closed for one week or longer, such as for business interruption, remodeling, during the stated period. Same-store sales growth is primarily a result of changes in the number of customer transactions and changes in the average transaction size. Jushi’s same-store sales growth is primarily impacted by the expansion of its brand awareness, continued menu innovation and the use technology. Jushi’s same-store sales growth is also impacted by external factors including the macro-economic environment that could affect consumer spending.
