MariMed Reports Third Quarter 2024 Earnings

NORWOOD, MA, November 6, 2024 - MariMed Inc. (“MariMed” or the “Company”) (CSE: MRMD) (OTCQX: MRMD), a leading multi-state cannabis operator focused on improving lives every day, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

“We reported year-over-year and sequential revenue growth, sequential EBITDA and Net Income improvement, and we continue to generate positive operating cash flow,” said Jon Levine, Chief Executive Officer. “Our wholesale business continues to outpace the industry with another quarter of at least 20% year-over-year growth. Despite continued pressure on U.S. consumers, our retail business transactions grew year-over-year, driven by both same-store sales growth and the new dispensaries opened in the past 12 months. Our heavy investment phase is complete, as are the significant pre-opening expenses we incurred the past several years. We remain highly confident in our ability to grow revenue and profits long-term as our new assets ramp to their potential.”

THIRD QUARTER 2024 OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
During the third quarter, the Company announced the following developments in the implementation of its strategic growth plan:
•July 2: Commenced adult-use sales at its Panacea Wellness dispensary in Quincy, Massachusetts. Additionally the Company announced it received a provisional dual-license for its Tiffin, Ohio dispensary.
•July 22: Commenced growing operations in its newly expanded cultivation facility in Hagerstown, Maryland. The new expansion should lead to a 100% increase in its flower yield, making MariMed one of the largest suppliers of flower in the state. The Company has already begun selling flower from this expansion through its retail and wholesale channels.
•August 7: Appointed Mario Pinho as the Company's Chief Financial Officer, effective August 9, 2024. Mr. Pinho is a CPA and finance executive with nearly 25 years of experience leading global organizations through various stages of dynamic growth. Most recently, he was CFO for the U.S. division of Rakuten, the global Internet Services, FinTech, and Mobile company.
•August 19: Opened Thrive Wellness dispensary in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, its second adult-use dispensary in the state. The Company also owns and operates a Thrive Wellness dispensary in Annapolis.
•September 24: Commenced non-medical cannabis sales at its Thrive Wellness dispensary in Tiffin, Ohio. The Company was also issued a license to open a second non-medical cannabis dispensary, which will be located in the greater Columbus area, the state's largest metro area.
OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Company announced the following further developments:
•October 14: Commenced growing operations in its new cultivation facility in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. The new facility allows the Company to grow its award-winning, high-quality Nature's Heritage™ flower for distribution throughout the state. The Company expects the first harvest to be on shelves in the first quarter of 2025.
•October 29: Announced the commencement of manufacturing operations in Missouri. The Company plans to manufacture and build finished inventory of its award-winning edible and vape brands. MariMed expects to begin wholesale distribution of its branded products throughout the state by the end of November 2024.

"With 2024 nearly behind us, we continue to see margin improvements at our recently opened locations. This sets up 2025 as another year of strong financial results,” said Mario Pinho, Chief Financial Officer. “We have several organic catalysts to drive continued momentum for the foreseeable future. Additionally, we maintain one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry, enabling us to capitalize on attractive M&A opportunities in a market with depressed valuations.”
2024 FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
MariMed’s initial full-year 2024 financial targets reflected the organic growth of its existing operational assets, excluding any new revenue-generating projects that require regulatory approvals. Delays in securing regulatory approvals for these new assets have led to higher-than-anticipated pre-opening costs and a longer ramp-up period than initially forecasted. Consequently, the Company is updating its full-year 2024 financial targets as follows:

•Revenue Growth: Increased to 6%–8%, from the previous target of 5%–7%.


•Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA: Revised to a decline of 18%–20%, compared to the previous target of 0%–2% growth.
•Capital Expenditures: Revised to $11 million, up from the previous target of $10 million.
DISCUSSION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
MariMed’s management uses several different financial measures, both GAAP and non-GAAP, in analyzing and assessing the overall performance of its business, making operating decisions, and planning and forecasting future periods. The Company has provided in this release several non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP Gross margin, Non-GAAP Net income (loss), Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA margin, as supplements to Revenue, Gross margin, Net income (loss) and other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in reviewing and assessing the performance of the Company, and when planning and forecasting future periods, as they provide meaningful operating results by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of its operating business performance. In addition, the Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods and for financial and operational decision-making. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes that investors and analysts benefit from considering non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s financial results and its ongoing business, as it allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business. In particular, non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is used by many investors and analysts themselves, along with other metrics, to compare financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies.
As there are no standardized methods of calculating non-GAAP financial measures, the Company’s calculations may differ from those used by analysts, investors and other companies, even those within the cannabis industry, and therefore may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures used by others.
Management defines non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) from operations, determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding the following items:

•depreciation of fixed assets;
•amortization of acquired intangible assets;
•Impairment or write-downs of intangible assets;
•stock-based compensation;
•legal settlements; and
•acquisition-related and other expenses.
