Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]  
Acquisitions
NOTE 4. ACQUISITIONS
(a)Formula 420 Cannabis LLC
On December 22, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Formula 420 Cannabis LLC ("Formula 420") the holder of an Arizona adult-use license that became operational in October 2022. The Company analyzed the acquisition under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, determining Formula 420 did not meet the definition of a business as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset. The Company had previously consolidated the entity as a VIE as it was determined the Company exercised control of the entity and was the primary beneficiary although it previously owned no equity interests due to a master service agreement. In accordance with Topic 810, Consolidation, the Company accounted for the change in a consolidated subsidiaries ownership interest as an equity transaction. Therefore, the total consideration was determined to be $5.5 million which consisted of a note payable. See Note 11. Notes Payable for further details. Nominal transaction costs were incurred in relation to this acquisition.
(b)Greenhouse Wellness WV Dispensaries, LLC
On April 26, 2022, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Greenhouse Wellness WV Dispensaries, LLC (“Greenhouse WV”), the holder of a West Virginia dispensary permit and a lease for a not yet operating dispensary location. The Company analyzed the acquisition under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, determining Greenhouse WV did not meet the definition of a business as Greenhouse WV did not have inputs, processes, and outputs in place that constituted a business under Topic 805. As a result, the transaction has been accounted for as an asset acquisition whereby all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are assigned a carrying amount based on relative fair values. Total consideration was $0.3 million consisting of cash.
The following table summarizes the allocation of consideration exchanged for the estimated fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Consideration:(in thousands)
Cash$281 
Fair value of consideration exchanged$281 
Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Right of use asset - operating$170 
Intangible asset270 
Favorable lease interest11 
Operating lease liabilities(170)
Total net assets acquired$281 
The acquired intangible assets include a dispensary license which is treated as a definite-lived intangible asset amortized over a 15-year useful life and a favorable lease interest which was fully amortized in the period of acquisition due to useful life and materiality considerations.
(c)Watkins Cultivation Operation
On February 14, 2022, the Company acquired a cultivation operation from CP4 Group, LLC, in Phoenix, Arizona ("Watkins Cultivation Operation" or "Watkins"). The Company analyzed the acquisition under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, determining Watkins met the definition of a business as Watkins is an existing cultivation facility with inputs, processes, and outputs in place that constitute a business under Topic 805. As a result, the acquisition of Watkins has been accounted for as a business combination. Goodwill represents the amount the Company paid over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible assets acquired. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's cultivation capacity in Arizona. The goodwill of $24.5 million arising from the acquisition primarily consists of the economies of scale expected from a vertical cannabis market in Arizona. Total consideration was $27.5 million paid in cash. An additional $22.5 million was paid into escrow for four potential earnouts. The earnouts were based on the completion of certain milestones and contingent on the continued employment of the key employee shareholders ("Key Employees") of Watkins. As the earnouts were contingent on the continued employment of the Key Employees, any amounts earned are compensation for post-combination services.
The Company accrues the compensation cost for each earnout as it becomes probable and estimable and over the most probable period of continued employment required for the specific earnouts. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company concluded that attainment of any of the four potential earnouts was no longer probable or estimable and reversed all existing accruals.
The Company incurred $0.2 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of Watkins. These costs were expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. No additional transaction costs have been incurred.

(d) Purplemed Healing Center
On December 28, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of certain assets of Purplemed Healing Center ("Purplemed") including the Medical Marijuana Dispensary License issued by the Arizona Department of Health Services ("ADHS") and the Marijuana Establishment License issued by the ADHS which collectively serve as the Purplemed license providing the ability to operate a marijuana retail sales dispensary as well as the assumption of the associated lease. The Company also acquired the right to operate an additional offsite cultivation business under the Arizona Adult Use Marijuana Act, and the option to purchase full ownership and management of Greenmed, Inc., the Greenmed license, and the Greenmed dispensary. As part of the transaction, the Company assumed the Purplemed loyalty program.
The Company analyzed the acquisition under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, determining Purplemed did not meet the definition of a business as Purplemed did not have inputs, processes, and outputs in place that constituted a business under Topic 805. As a result, the acquisition of Purplemed has been accounted for as an asset acquisition, whereby all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are assigned a carrying amount based on relative fair values. The total consideration was $15.0 million consisting of cash. The acquisition provided for indemnity for pre-closing liabilities. Accordingly, the Company recognized an indemnification asset of $0.5 million offset the by associated liabilities based on the information that was available at the date of the acquisition, which is included in the net assets acquired.
The net assets were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million.

(e) Harvest Health & Recreation Inc.
On October 1, 2021, (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired 100% of the common shares of Harvest Health & Recreation, Inc. (“Harvest”) and its portion of variable interest entities in exchange for Subordinate Voting Shares of the Company (the “Harvest Transaction”).
Harvest was one of the largest multi-state vertically integrated operators in the cannabis industry in the United States operating from “seed to sale". Harvest operated facilities or provides services to cannabis dispensaries in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, and Pennsylvania, with two provisional licenses in Massachusetts. In addition, Harvest owned CO2 extraction, distillation, purification, and manufacturing technology used to produce a line of cannabis topicals, vapes, and gems featuring cannabinoids.
Total consideration was $1.4 billion consisting of Trulieve Subordinate Voting Shares (“Trulieve Shares”) with a fair value of $1.37 billion, stock options, equity classified warrants, restricted stock units, and other outstanding equity instruments with a fair value of $18.4 million, and warrant liabilities convertible into equity with a fair value of $3.1 million at the time of the Harvest Transaction. The Company incurred $13.0 million in transaction costs related to the acquisition of Harvest. These costs were expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses within the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021. No additional transaction costs have been incurred.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations. Goodwill represents the premium the Company paid over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company’s retail and cultivation footprint and gain access to new markets. The goodwill of $663.7 million arising from the acquisition primarily consists of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of Trulieve and Harvest including growing the Company's customer base, acquiring assembled workforces, and expanding its presence in new and existing markets. These benefits were not recognized separately from goodwill because they do not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets.
During the third quarter of 2022, the Company finalized the accounting for non-controlling interests on the acquired entities, which resulted in a measurement period adjustment increasing non-controlling interests and goodwill by $1.6 million.
The following table summarizes the allocation of consideration exchanged for the estimated fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

On acquisition date there was consideration in the form of 1,266,641 stock options (as converted) that had been issued before the acquisition date to employees and non-employees of Harvest. The pre-combination fair value of these awards is $6.2 million. There was consideration in the form of 1,011,095 warrants (1,009,416 equity classified Subordinate Voting Shares ("SVS") warrants and 1,679 liability classified Multiple Voting Share ("MVS") warrants, as converted) that had been issued before the acquisition date to employees and non-employees of Harvest. The pre-combination fair value of these awards is $7.7 million with $4.6 million representing the equity classified warrants and $3.1 million representing the liability classified warrants. There was consideration in the form of restricted stock units that had been issued before the acquisition date to non-employees of Harvest which vested for services performed pre-combination representing 18,297 SVS. The pre-combination fair value of these awards is $0.5 million. There was additional consideration in the form of other outstanding equity instruments issued before the acquisition date to non-employees which had a pre-combination fair value of $7.1 million.
As part of the acquisition, Harvest entered into a sale agreement to sell their Florida cannabis license for $55.0 million where Trulieve was legally prohibited from holding this license and the sale occurred simultaneously with the Harvest Transaction. Therefore, a $55.0 million receivable for the sale proceeds was acquired. The funds were received subsequent to the closing of the Harvest Transaction on October 1, 2021.

Total consideration was $55.6 million consisting of $20.3 million in cash, inclusive of net working capital adjustments, and 1,009,336 in Trulieve Shares with a fair value of $35.4 million. The agreement provides for an additional $5.0 million in consideration which is contingent on the enactment, adoption or approval of laws allowing for adult-use cannabis in Pennsylvania. No liability was recorded for this contingent consideration, as the estimated value of the liability was not significant at the time of acquisition or as of December 31, 2023 based on the likelihood of approval of laws allowing for adult-use cannabis in Pennsylvania. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations.
