Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously disclosed by cbdMD, Inc. (the “Company”), in March 2024 the Company and its former executive offices landlord (“Landlord”) entered into a License Agreement and a Lease Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) to terminate the lease of the Company’s former executive offices (the “Former Facilities Lease”). The Company has satisfied all payment requirements under the Forbearance Agreement and License Agreement. On August 15, 2024 made a payment of $255,000 (the “Payment”) to satisfy all past due payments and amounts under the Former Facilities Lease. The Company and Landlord entered into a mutual release and settlement agreement and the Company has no obligations (payments or otherwise) owed to Landlord under any of the agreements described in this current report on Form 8-K.

As a result of the Payment, the Company anticipates realizing an approximate $550,000 gain on the settlement of accrued past due rent, interest and penalties. This gain will help to offset the approximate $230,000 non-cash expense that resulted from the elimination of the right of use asset and the right of use liability under the termination of the original lease.
