2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation
The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MedMen Enterprises, its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) where the Company is considered the primary beneficiary, if any, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Investments in entities in which the Company has significant influence, but less than a controlling financial interest, are accounted for using the equity method.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of the Company as of and for the three months ended September 25, 2021, year ended June 26, 2021 and three months ended September 26, 2020, the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 have been included.
The accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements. Accordingly, certain information, footnotes and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations within the instruction to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 26, 2021, dated September 24, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “2021 Form 10-K”).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic promoted various recommendations and safety measures from governmental authorities to try and limit the pandemic. The response of governmental authorities is having a significant impact on the private sector and individuals, including unprecedented business, employment and economic disruptions. During the current reporting period, aspects of the Company’s business continue to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the Company’s offices and retail stores operating within local rules and regulations. While the ultimate severity of the outbreak and its impact on the economic environment is uncertain, the Company is monitoring this closely. In the event that the Company were to experience widespread transmission of the virus at one or more of the Company’s store or other facilities, the Company could suffer reputational harm or other potential liability. Further, the Company’s business operations may be materially and adversely affected if a significant number of the Company’s employees are impacted by the virus.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the “JOBS Act”) under which emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies.
Functional Currency
The Company and its subsidiaries’ functional currency, as determined by management, is the United States (“U.S.”) dollar. These consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars as this is the primary economic environment of the group. All references to “C$” refer to Canadian dollars.
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies and critical estimates applied by the Company in these unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are the same as those applied in the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash balances are those which meet the definition of cash and cash equivalents but are not available for use by the Company. As of September 25, 2021 and June 26, 2021, restricted cash was nil 0 and $730, respectively, which is used to pay for lease costs and costs incurred related to building construction in Reno, Nevada. This account is managed by a contractor and the Company is required to maintain a certain minimum balance.
Loss per Share
The Company calculates basic loss per share by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is determined by adjusting profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprise convertible debentures, restricted stock units, warrants and stock options issued.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”), which eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. It also clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on June 27, 2021. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments — Equity Securities (Topic 321)”, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323)”, and “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)” (“ASU 2020-01”), which is intended to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. ASU 2020-01 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods therein. The Company adopted ASU 2020-01 on June 27, 2021. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt — Debt With Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20)” and “Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is applied on a modified or full retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the adoption date and impact, if any, adoption will have on its financial position and results of operations.

| (1) | As of September 25, 2021, the Company has 100% of membership interests in Staunton which holds land and a license for a vertically-integrated facility in Staunton, Virginia. The Staunton land and license were classified as assets held for sale in accordance with ASC 360, “Long-Lived Assets Classified as Held for Sale” (“ASC 360”) and are measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell (“FVLCTS”) which was determined as $91,420 and nil, respectively, as of September 25, 2021. |
| (2) | Long-lived assets classified as held for sale that do not qualify as discontinued operation and classified as held for sale. Significant classes of assets and liabilities are presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in accordance with ASC Subtopic 360-10, “Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“ASC Subtopic 360-10”). |
| (3) | See “Note 21 – Discontinued Operations” for further information. |
As of September 25, 2021, the Company was in negotiations to sublease (the “Sublease”) and enter into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the proposed sublessee to operate its cultivation facilities in California and Nevada (the “Cultivation Facilities”). The Sublease and Management Agreement is subject to the approval of the Cultivation Facilities’ landlord. On September 30, 2021, the landlord approved the Sublease which effectuated the Management Agreement. Payments under the Sublease agreement are for 52% of the Company’s lease obligations for the Cultivation Facilities increasing 2% annually until March 2024 and then 3% annually until March 2027 where it will remain at 65% of the lease obligations until the end of the Sublease term in January 2039. The Management Agreement provides the sublessee rights to make substantially all management decisions, and the rights to the income and obligation to fund operations of the Cultivation Facilities. The Management Agreement also provides the sublessee and an option to acquire all the assets used in the Cultivation Facilities, including the cannabis licenses and equipment, for an insignificant amount. The fee for the services under the Management Agreement is 100% and 30% of the California and Nevada Cultivation Facilities net revenue, respectively. The Company determined that as of the effective date of the Management Agreement, the Company would no longer have a controlling financial interest in the Cultivation Facilities under ASC 810, “Consolidations” and that as of September 25, 2021, the activities of the Cultivation Facilities met the criteria of assets held for sale. As the Company has not been relieved of the primary obligations under the leases, all of the assets and liabilities related to the Cultivation Facilities, except for the right of use assets and related lease liabilities were classified as held for sale on the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 25, 2021.

On August 17, 2021, in connection with the amended and restated senior secured convertible credit facility, the Company provided the note holders top-up and preemptive rights which were bifurcated from the related notes and classified as a derivative due to the variability of the number and price of shares issuable under these rights. See “Note 11 – Senior Secured Convertible Credit Facility” for further information.
On August 17, 2021, the Company completed an equity investment through a private placement of 416,666,640 units at a price of $0.24 per unit. Each unit consisted of one Subordinate Voting Share and one-quarter of one share purchase warrant of the Company. Certain investors also received a portion of the Short-Term Warrant with an exercise price of $30,000,000 and an expiration date of December 31, 2021. At the option of the holder, the Short-Term Warrant may be exercisable into equity or convertible promissory notes under the Convertible Facility, in which net cash settlement is outside of the Company’s control. See “Note 12 – Shareholders’ Equity” for further information. Accordingly, the Short-Term Warrant was accounted for as a derivative liability and measured at fair value, in the amount of $19,400,000 on August 17, 2021, with changes in fair value recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

8. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES (Continued)
The fair value of the top-up provision in connection with Sixth Amendment of the Convertible Facility and the Short-Term Warrant in connection with the Private Placement was determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model based on Level 3 inputs on the fair value hierarchy. The following assumptions were used at the date of issuance:
Schedule of assumptions to measure fair value | | | | | | | | |
| | Top-Up Provision | | | Short-Term Warrant | |
| | | | | | |
Average Stock Price | | $ | 0.27 | | | $ | 0.27 | |
Weighted-Average Probability | | | 58.33 | % | | | nil | |
Term (in Years) | | | 5.00 | | | | 0.37 | |
Expected Stock Price Volatility | | | 120.00 | % | | | 120.00 | % |
The following are the warrants issued related to the equity financing transactions that were accounted for as derivative liabilities:
Schedule of warrants issued | | | | |
| | Number of Warrants | |
| | | |
September 2018 Bought Deal Equity Financing | | | 7,840,909 | |
December 2018 Bought Deal Equity Financing | | | 13,640,000 | |
March 2021 Private Placement | | | 50,000,000 | |
| | | | |
| | | 71,480,909 | |
The fair value of the September 2018 and December 2018 bought deal warrants was measured based on Level 1 inputs on the fair value hierarchy since there are quoted prices in active markets for these warrants. The Company used the closing price of the publicly-traded warrants at the time of grant to estimate fair value of the derivative liability. The fair value of the March 2021 private placement warrants was measured based on Level 3 inputs on the fair value hierarchy using the Black-Scholes Option pricing model using the following variables:
Schedule of assumptions to measure fair value | | | | |
Expected Stock Price Volatility | | | 74.87 | % |
Risk-Free Annual Interest Rate | | | 0.05 | % |

9. LEASES
In accordance with ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASC 842”) the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and accrued obligations under operating lease (current and non-current) liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in property and equipment, net and accrued obligations under finance lease (current and noncurrent) liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. The Company classifies a lease as an operating lease when it does not meet any of the criteria of a finance lease as set forth by ASC 842.
ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Most operating leases contain renewal options that provide for rent increases based on prevailing market conditions. The Company has lease extension terms at its properties that have either been extended or are likely to be extended. The terms used to calculate the ROU assets for these properties include the renewal options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.

On August 17, 2021, the Company announced that Tilray, Inc. (“Tilray”) acquired a majority of the outstanding senior secured convertible notes (the “Notes”) under the senior secured convertible credit facility (the “Convertible Facility”) with Gotham Green Partners (“GGP”). Under the terms of the transaction, a newly formed limited partnership (the “SPV”) established by Tilray and other strategic investors acquired an aggregate principal amount of approximately $165,800,000 of the Notes and warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Facility, representing 75% of the outstanding Notes and 65% of the outstanding warrants under the Convertible Facility. Specifically, Tilray’s interest in the SPV represents rights to 68% of the Notes and related warrants held by the SPV, which are convertible into, and exercisable for, approximately 21% of the outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares of MedMen upon closing of the transaction. Tilray also has the right to appoint two non-voting observers of the Company’s Board of Directors.
In connection with the sale of the Notes, the Company amended and restated the securities purchase agreement with GGP (“A&R 4”, or the “Sixth Amendment”) to, among other things, extend the maturity date to August 17, 2028, eliminate any cash interest obligations and instead provide for payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest, eliminate certain repricing/down-round provisions, and eliminate and revise certain restrictive covenants. All or a portion of the Notes and unpaid accrued interest are convertible into Subordinate Voting Shares at the option of the Note holder prior to the Notes repayment. The conversion price of the Notes and unpaid and accrued PIK interest prior to A&R 4 ranges from $0.1529 to $0.3400. Accrued payment-in-kind interest on the Notes incurred after A&R 4 will be convertible at price equal to the higher of 1) the trailing 30-day volume weighted average price of the Subordinate Voting Shares, and 2) lowest discounted price available pursuant to the pricing policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”). A&R 4 PIK was classified as a liability in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. The Notes may not be prepaid until the federal legalization of cannabis. Under A&R 4, the Company is subject to certain financial covenants including minimum liquidity and maintenance of the annual budget, and certain negative covenants, including restrictions on incurring liens, debt and contingent obligations, sale of assets, conducting mergers, investments and affiliate transactions, making certain payments, organizational changes, and sale-leaseback transactions. The Company was in compliance with its covenants as of September 25, 2021. The Sixth Amendment was deemed to be a substantial modification under ASC Subtopic 470-50, “Modifications and Extinguishments” and the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $12,409,861 for the three months ended September 25, 2021.
The Notes will also provide the holders with a top-up (“Top-up”) right to acquire additional Subordinate Voting Shares and a preemptive (“Preemptive”) right with respect to future financings of the Company, subject to certain exceptions, upon the issuance by MedMen of certain Subordinate Voting Shares or Subordinate Voting Share-linked securities. Top-up rights provides the Note holders warrants for the number of Subordinate Voting Shares that maintains the Note holders their as-if converted ownership percentage of Subordinate Voting Shares (the “Top-up Warrants”). The Top-up Warrants exercise price is equal to the issue or conversion price of the Subordinate Voting Shares that triggered the Top-up Warrants. The Top-up Warrants expire at the earlier of five years or the date cannabis possession is federally legal. Preemptive rights allow the Note holders a first right to acquire its pro rata portion of certain future Subordinate Voting Share issuances at the price proposed by the Company. The Top-up and Preemptive rights were bifurcated from the Notes and classified as derivatives due to the variability in the number of shares and price in accordance with ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. See “Note 8 - Derivative Liabilities” for further discussion.
In connection with A&R 4, GGP has the ability to nominate an individual to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors for so long as GGP’s diluted ownership percentage is at least 10%.

Equity Investment Through Private Placement
On August 17, 2021, the Company entered into subscription agreements with various investors led by Serruya Private Equity Inc. (“SPE”) to purchase $100,000,000 of units (each, a “Unit”) of the Company at a purchase price of $0.24 per Unit (the “Private Placement”) wherein each Unit consisted of one Class B Subordinate Voting Share and one-quarter share purchase warrant. Each warrant permits the holder to purchase one additional Subordinate Voting Share at an exercise price of $0.288 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance. The warrants were classified within shareholders’ equity as additional paid-in capital in accordance with ASC 815-10, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815-10”) and recorded at fair value. The Company issued a total of 416,666,640 Subordinate Voting Shares and 104,166,660 warrants for gross proceeds of $100,000,000 including the settlement of the unsecured promissory note of $5,000,000. The Company incurred stock issuance costs totaling $7,852,679, including the Backstop Commitment fee noted below, which were recorded as reductions in additional paid-in capital. Accordingly, the Company received proceeds totaling $92,147,321 net of fees. Refer to “Note 10 – Notes Payable” for further information.
Each Unit issued to certain funds associated with SPE consisted of one Class B Subordinate Voting Share and one-quarter of one share purchase warrant, plus a proportionate interest in a short-term warrant (the “Short-Term Warrant”) which expires on December 31, 2021. At the option of the holders and upon payment of $30,000,000, the Short-Term Warrant entitles the holders to acquire (i) an aggregate of 125,000,000 Units at an exercise price of $0.24 per Unit, or (ii) $30,000,000 principal amount of notes at par, convertible into 125,000,000 Subordinate Voting Shares at a conversion price of $0.24 per share under the terms of the Convertible Facility. The proceeds from the exercise of the Short-Term Warrant, less fees and expenses, must be used to repay the senior secured term loan with Hankey Capital if any indebtedness is then outstanding. The Short-Term Warrant was classified as a liability in accordance with ASC 815-10 and recorded at fair value in the amount of $19,400,000. See “Note 8 – Derivative Liabilities” for further information.
Certain investors associated with SPE agreed to backstop the Private Placement (the “Backstop Commitment”). In consideration for providing the Backstop Commitment, the Company paid a fee of $2,500,000 in the form of 10,416,666 Class B Subordinate Voting Shares at a price of $0.24 per share.

Le Cirque Rouge, LP is a Delaware limited partnership that holds substantially all of the real estate assets owned by the REIT, conducts the REIT’s operations, and is financed by the REIT. Under ASC 810, “Consolidation”, the OP was determined to be a variable interest entity in which the Company has a variable interest. The Company was determined to have an implicit variable interest in the OP based on the leasing relationship and arrangement with the REIT. The Company was not determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE as the Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect its economic performance. As of September 25, 2021, the Company continues to have a variable interest in the OP. During the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company did not provide any financial or other support to the REIT other than the completion of the sale and leaseback transactions and the REIT being a lessor on various leases as described in “Note 9 – Leases”. Accordingly, Le Cirque Rouge, LP is not consolidated as a variable interest entity within the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
13. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has a stock and equity incentive plan (the “Incentive Plan”) under which the Company may issue various types of equity instruments to any employee, officer, consultant, advisor or director. The types of equity instruments issuable under the Incentive Plan encompass, among other things, stock options, stock grants, restricted stock units (together, “Awards”). Stock based compensation expenses are recorded as a component of general and administrative to the extent that the Company has not appointed a Compensation Committee, all rights and obligations under the Incentive Plan shall be those of the full Board of Directors. The maximum number of Awards that may be issued under the Incentive Plan shall be determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors in the absence of a Compensation Committee. Any shares subject to an Award under the Incentive Plan that are forfeited, canceled, expire unexercised, are settled in cash, or are used or withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations, shall again be available for Awards under the Incentive Plan. Vesting of Awards will be determined by the Compensation Committee or Board of Directors in absence of one. The exercise price for Awards (if applicable) will generally not be less than the fair market value of the Award at the time of grant and will generally expire after 10 years.

13. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued)
The fair value of warrants exercisable for the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions on the latest modification of August 17, 2021:
Weighted-Average Risk-Free Annual Interest Rate | | | 0.06 | % |
Weighted-Average Expected Annual Dividend Yield | | | 0 | % |
Weighted-Average Expected Stock Price Volatility | | | 175.50 | % |
Weighted-Average Expected Life of Warrants | | | 1 year | |
Stock price volatility was estimated by using the historical volatility of the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares. The expected life in years represents the period of time that warrants issued are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate was based on U.S. Treasury bills with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the warrants.

17. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES AND DEFERRED INCOME TAXES
The following table summarizes the Company’s income tax expense and effective tax rates for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020:
Schedule of income tax expense and effective tax rates | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended | |
| | September 25, | | | September 26, | |
| | 2021 | | | 2020 | |
| | | | | | |
Income Tax Expense | | | (19,691,908 | ) | | | (12,282,665 | ) |
Effective Tax Rate | | | (57 | %) | | | (86 | %) |
For the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company calculated its provision for income taxes during its interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full year “ordinary” income or loss for the respective reporting period.
As the Company operates in the legal cannabis industry, the Company is subject to the limits of IRC Section 280E for U.S. federal, Illinois state, Florida state and New York state income tax purposes under which the Company is only allowed to deduct expenses directly related to sales of product. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC Section 280E. However, the State of California does not conform to IRC Section 280E and, accordingly, the Company deducts all operating expenses on its California Franchise Tax Returns.
The Company has approximately gross $8,500,000 (tax effected $2,300,000) of Canadian non-capital losses and $6,915,000 (tax effected $1,833,000) of share issuance cost 20(1)(e) balance. The loss tax attribute has been determined to be more likely than not that the tax attribute would not yield any tax benefit. As such, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the benefit. Since IRC Section 280E was not applied in the California Franchise Tax Returns, the Company has approximately $195,000,000 of gross California net operating losses which begin expiring in 2033 as of June 26, 2021. The Company has evaluated the realization of its California net operating loss tax attribute and has determined under the more likely than not standard that $192,400,000 will not be realized.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 25, 2021 is different compared with the three months ended September 26, 2020, respectively, primarily due to the Company’s forecasted income and related 280E expenditures and reclassification of the Company’s Arizona operations from discontinued operations to continued operations. The Company’s non-deductible expenses related to IRC Section 280E limitations have remained relatively consistent.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. state jurisdictions, and in Canada. The Company is generally subject to audit by taxing authorities in various U.S., state, and in foreign jurisdictions for fiscal years 2013 through the current fiscal year. As of September 25, 2021, the Company had $16,500,000 of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would reduce income tax expense and the effective tax rate if recognized. During the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company recognized a net discrete tax expense of $261,000 primarily related on interest of past liabilities. During the next twelve months, the Company does not estimate any material reduction in its unrecognized tax benefits.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contingencies
The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulations. Failure to comply with one or more of these regulations could result in fines, restrictions on its operations, or losses of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations. While management of the Company believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulations as of September 25, 2021 and June 26, 2021, marijuana regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties or restrictions in the future.
Claims and Litigation
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of September 25, 2021, there were no pending or threatening lawsuits that could be reasonably assessed to have resulted in a probable loss to the Company in an amount that can be reasonably estimated. As such, no accrual has been made in the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements relating to claims and litigations. As of September 25, 2021, there are also no proceedings in which any of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates is an adverse party to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s interest.
In July 2018, a legal claim was filed against the Company related to alleged misrepresentations in respect of a financing transaction completed in May 2018. During the year ended September 25, 2021, the claim was settled for a total of C$575,000 of which C$250,000 shall be paid in Class B Subordinate Voting Shares. The settlement liability has been accrued in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In late January 2019, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) filed a complaint against MM Enterprises in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, seeking damages for claims relating to his employment. The Company is currently defending against this lawsuit, which seeks damages for wrongful termination, breach of contract, and breach of implied covenant of good faith. The former CFO’s employment agreement provided for the payment of severance in the event of termination without cause. The Company disputes the claims set forth in this lawsuit and believes that the outcome is neither probable nor estimable. As of September 25, 2021, $584,000 has been accrued in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In March 2020, litigation was filed against the Company related to a purchase agreement for a previous acquisition. The Company is currently defending against this lawsuit, which seeks damages for fraudulent inducement and breach of contract. The Company believes the likelihood of a loss contingency is neither probable nor estimable. As such, no amount has been accrued in these financial statements.
In April 2020, a complaint was filed against the Company related to a contemplated acquisition in which the plaintiffs are seeking damages for alleged breach of contract and breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. While no amounts have been identified in the claim, the Company estimated this to be approximately $5,200,000. The Company believes the likelihood of a loss contingency is neither probable nor remote. As such, no amount has been accrued in the financial statements.
In May 2020, litigation was filed against the Company related to a purchase agreement and secured promissory note for a previous acquisition. The Company is currently defending against this lawsuit, which claims for breach of contract, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, common law fraud and securities fraud. The plaintiffs are seeking damages for such claims in which the amount is currently not reasonably estimable. Therefore, pursuant to ASC 450, “Contingencies” (“ASC 450”), a liability has not been recorded in these audited Consolidated Financial Statements. In response, the Company filed a counterclaim and is seeking entitlement to proceeds of the sale, net of amounts owed under the secured promissory note which is in dispute. The plaintiffs filed an appeal to the ruling on the entitlement of proceeds in excess of the secured promissory note. In accordance with ASC 450, any loss recoveries related to the Company’s counterclaim have not been recorded. In addition, net proceeds resulting from the sale was not recognized as a receivable as the amount is not reasonably estimable.
In September 2020, a legal dispute was filed against the Company related to the separation of a former officer in which the severance issued is currently being disputed. The Company believes the likelihood of loss is remote. As a result, no amount has been set up for potential damages in these financial statements.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)
In February 2020, a legal dispute was filed against the Company and settled in December 2020 for approximately $2,400,000. As of September 25, 2021, the remaining amount of $400,000 has been accrued in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In December 2020, a lawsuit was filed against the Company related to a previous acquisition alleging that the plaintiffs were owed additional compensation. In the complaint, the plaintiffs allege breach of contract, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair delaying, fraud and unjust enrichment, among other causes of actions. The plaintiffs are seeking the issuance of 51,716,141 shares, which has been accrued in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 25, 2021, and other monetary damages. The litigation is at an early stage and the likelihood of a loss contingency is remote. The amount of other monetary damages is not reasonably estimable and thus, no amount has been accrued in these financial statements. During the three months ended September 25, 2021, the parties entered into a partial settlement in the amount of $1,050,000 of which $475,000 is remaining as of September 25, 2021 and has been accrued in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In January 2021, a cross-complaint was filed against the Company related a lien foreclosure alleging breach of contract, quantum merit and implied indemnity. The Company is actively defending the legal matter which the claimant is seeking damages of approximately $11,000,000. The litigation is at an early stage and thus the likelihood of a loss contingency is remote. As such, no amount has been accrued in these financial statements.
19. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
All related party balances due to the Company as of September 25, 2021 and June 26, 2021 did not have any formal contractual agreements regarding payment terms or interest.

The ability to approve the nominees to the Company’s Board of Directors met the definition of control under ASC 850 and accordingly, Wicklow Capital is a related party of the Company.
On August 17, 2021, Tilray acquired the majority of the outstanding senior secured convertible notes and warrants held by GGP and GGP no longer held significant influence over the Company and therefore as of September 25, 2021, was not considered a related party under ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures” (“ASC 850”), however GGP was during the fiscal year ended June 26, 2021. As of August 17, 2021, the Company determined Tilray to be a related party as a result of Tilray having significant influence over the Company. See “Note 11 – Senior Secured Convertible Credit Facility” for a full disclosure of the SPV and A&R 4.

In connection with the private placement, the Company appointed Michael Serruya, SPE’s Managing Director, as a member of its board of directors. As of August 17, 2021, the Company determined SPE to be a related party as a result of the private placement and involvement with the Board. See “Note 12 – Shareholders’ Equity” for discussion on the private placement transaction.
In March 2020, the Company entered into a restructuring plan and retained interim management and advisory firm, Sierra Constellation Partners LLC (“SCP”).

20. SEGMENTED INFORMATION
The Company currently operates in one segment, the production and sale of cannabis products, which is how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker manages the business and makes operating decisions. The Company’s cultivation operations are not considered significant to the overall operations of the Company. Intercompany sales and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
21. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
During the fiscal year ended June 26, 2021, the Company had a change in plan of sale for the remaining Arizona disposal group. As a result, the assets no longer meet the held for sale criteria and are required to be reclassified as held and used at the lower of adjusted carrying value or the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell. During the three months ended September 25, 2021, revenues, net loss, net depreciation and amortization, in the amounts of $3,992,362, $1,241,888 and $202,136, respectively, is included in continuing operations in the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three months ended September 26, 2020, revenues, net loss, net depreciation and amortization, in the amounts of $1,819,230, $2,398,485 and $12,700, respectively, were reclassified to continuing operations and is included in the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
On January 29, 2018, the Company acquired all membership interests and assets in Project Compassion NY, LLC (“Project Compassion”) as a part of the formation of MM Enterprises USA through a joint venture. Through Project Compassion, the Company has one cultivation and production facility in Utica, New York, and operates four dispensaries in the state of New York that are located in Buffalo, Lake Success, Salina and Manhattan (collectively, “MedMen NY, Inc.”). During the year ended June 26, 2021, the Company contemplated the divesture of non-core assets and management entered into a plan to sell MedMen NY, Inc. On February 25, 2021, the Company entered into a definitive investment agreement to sell a controlling interest in MedMen NY, Inc. equity of approximately 86.7% with the option to purchase the remaining equity of approximately 13.3% that the Company will retain in MedMen NY, Inc. following the sale for a total sales price of up to $73,000,000. In conjunction with the investment agreement, MedMen NY, Inc. will engage the services of the purchaser pursuant to a management agreement until regulatory approval has been obtained. The aggregate sales price consists of a cash purchase price of $35,000,000, subject to adjustments and a senior secured promissory note of $28,000,000 which shall be assigned to Hankey Capital in partial satisfaction of the outstanding debt, and within five business days after the first sale by MedMen NY, Inc. of adult-use cannabis products at one or more of its retail store locations, additional shares of MedMen NY, Inc. will be purchased for $10,000,000 in cash. The proceeds in cash will be used to repay a portion of the Hankey Capital notes payable due by the Company. Accordingly, the total amount of interest expense and amortization of debt discounts and loan origination fees related to the Senior Secured Term Loan Facility allocated to discontinued operations was $4,847,302 and $3,855,293 for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively. As of September 25, 2021, the initial closing of the investment has not occurred and is expected to close within the next twelve months.
Consequently, assets and liabilities allocable to the operations within the state of New York were classified as a discontinued operation and presented as held for sale for all periods presented. Revenue and expenses, gains or losses relating to the discontinuation of New York operations have been eliminated from profit or loss from the Company’s continuing operations and are shown as a single line item in the unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The assets associated with the New York component have been measured at the lower of the carrying amount or FVLCTS. The Company will continue to operate the New York operations until the ultimate sale of the disposal group.

Quarterly Highlights
Amendment and Extension of Convertible Facility
On April 23, 2019, the Company secured a senior secured convertible credit facility (the “Convertible Facility”) to provide up to $250,000,000 in gross proceeds, arranged by Gotham Green Partners (“GGP”). The Convertible Facility has been accessed to date through issuances to the lenders of convertible senior secured notes (“GGP Notes”, or the “Notes”) co-issued by the Company and MM Can USA, Inc. (“MM CAN” or “MedMen Corp.”). As of September 25, 2021, the Company has drawn down on a total of $165,000,000 on the Convertible Facility. The principal amount of the Convertible Facility has been and is anticipated to be used for ongoing operations, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes.
On August 17, 2021, the Company announced that Tilray, Inc. (“Tilray”) acquired a majority of the outstanding GGP Notes. Under the terms of the transaction, a newly formed limited partnership (the “SPV”) established by Tilray and other strategic investors acquired an aggregate principal amount of approximately $165,800,000 of the Notes and warrants issued in connection with the Convertible Facility, all of which were originally issued by MedMen and held by GGP, representing 75% of the outstanding Notes and 65% of the outstanding warrants under the Convertible Facility. Specifically, Tilray’s interest in the SPV represents rights to 68% of the Notes and related warrants held by the SPV, which are convertible into, and exercisable for, approximately 21% of the outstanding Class B Subordinate Voting Shares of MedMen upon closing of the transaction. Tilray’s ability to convert the Notes and exercise the warrants is dependent upon U.S. federal legalization of cannabis or Tilray’s waiver of such requirement as well as any additional regulatory approvals. Tilray also has the right to appoint two non-voting observers of the Company’s Board of Directors.
In connection with the sale of the Notes, the Company amended and restated the Convertible Facility (the “Sixth Amendment”) to, among other things, extend the maturity date to August 17, 2028, eliminate any cash interest obligations, and instead provide for payment-in-kind interest, eliminate certain repricing provisions, and eliminate and revise certain restrictive covenants. The amendments are intended to provide MedMen the flexibility to execute on its growth priorities and explore additional strategic opportunities. In connection with the Sixth Amendment, accrued payment-in-kind interest on the Notes will be convertible at price equal to the higher of: (a) trailing 30-day volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s Subordinate Voting Shares or (b) the lowest discounted price available pursuant to the pricing policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”). The Notes may not be prepaid until the federal legalization of marijuana. The Notes, as amended, provide the holders with a top-up right to acquire additional Subordinate Voting Shares and a pre-emptive right with respect to future financings of the Company, subject to certain exceptions, upon the issuance by MedMen of certain equity or equity-linked securities. No changes have been made to the conversion and exercise prices of the Notes or related Warrants. In connection with the Sixth Amendment, GGP can nominate an individual to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors so long as GGP’s diluted ownership percentage is at least 10%. Refer to “Note 11 – Senior Secured Convertible Credit Facility” of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 for further information.
Backstopped Equity Investment
On August 17, 2021, the Company entered into subscription agreements with various investors led by Serruya Private Equity Inc. (“SPE”) to purchase $100,000,000 of units (each, a “Unit”) of the Company at a purchase price of $0.24 per Unit (the “Private Placement”) wherein certain investors associated with SPE agreed to backstop the Private Placement (the “Backstop Commitment”). Each Unit consisted of one Class B Subordinate Voting Share and one-quarter share purchase warrant. Each warrant permits the holder to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share at an exercise price of $0.288 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance. The Company issued a total of 416,666,640 Subordinate Voting Shares and 104,166,660 warrants for gross proceeds of $100,000,000. The proceeds from the Private Placement will allow MedMen to expand its operations in key markets such as California, Florida, Illinois and Massachusetts and identify and accelerate further growth opportunities across the United States.
Each Unit issued to certain funds associated with SPE consisted of one Class B Subordinate Voting Share and one-quarter of one share purchase warrant, plus a proportionate interest in a short-term warrant (the “Short-Term Warrant”) which expires on December 31, 2021. At the option of the holders and upon payment of $30,000,000, the Short-Term Warrant entitles the holders to acquire (i) an aggregate of 125,000,000 Units at an exercise price of $0.24 per Unit, or (ii) $30,000,000 principal amount of notes at par, convertible into 125,000,000 Subordinate Voting Shares at a conversion price of $0.24 per share under the terms of the Convertible Facility. The Company will use any proceeds, less fees and expenses, from exercise of the Short-Term Warrant to pay down the existing senior secured term loan with Hankey Capital if any indebtedness is then outstanding.
In consideration for the Backstop Commitment, the Company paid a fee of $2,500,000 in the aggregate to such parties in the form of 10,416,666 Class B Subordinate Voting Shares at a deemed price of $0.24 per share. In connection with the equity financing, the Company granted SPE the right to designate one individual to be nominated to serve as a director of the Company.
Unsecured Promissory Note
On July 29, 2021, the Company entered into a short-term unsecured promissory note in the amount of $5,000,000 with various investors led by SPE wherein the note bears interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum payable quarterly in arrears with a maturity date of August 18, 2021. On August 17, 2021, the Company settled the promissory note by the issuance of 20,833,333 Units, consisting of 20,833,333 Subordinate Voting Shares and 5,208,333 warrants based on an issue price of $0.24 and the relative portion of the Short-Term Warrant, issued as part of the Private Placement.
Unsecured Convertible Facility
On September 16, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured convertible debenture facility (the “Unsecured Convertible Facility”) for total available proceeds of $10,000,000 callable in tranches of $1,000,000 each. The debentures provide for the automatic conversion into Subordinate Voting Shares in the event that the VWAP is 50% above the conversion price on the CSE for 45 consecutive trading days.
On June 28, 2021, the remaining balance of the Unsecured Convertible Facility of $2,500,000 was automatically converted into 16,014,664 Class B Subordinate Voting Shares in the amount of $2,007,620. In addition, 8,807,605 of the outstanding warrants under the Unsecured Convertible Facility were exercised at varying prices for a net exercise price of $1,622,377. As of September 25, 2021, the outstanding balance of the Unsecured Convertible Facility was nil.
Assets Held for Sale
During the fiscal first quarter of 2022, the Company was in negotiations to sublease (the “Sublease”) its cultivation and production facilities in Desert Hot Springs, California and Sparks, Nevada (the “Facilities”) and to enter into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the proposed sublessee to operate the Facilities. The Sublease and Management Agreement was subject to the approval of the Facilities’ landlord. On September 30, 2021, the landlord approved the Sublease which effectuated the Management Agreement and the Company determined that as of the effective date of the Management Agreement, the Company would no longer have a controlling financial interest in the Facilities. Accordingly, as of September 25, 2021, the assets and liabilities related to the Facilities were classified as held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 25, 2021. Refer to “Note 4 – Assets Held for sale” of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 for further information.
Management Changes
On July 15, 2021, the Company permanently appointed Tom Lynch as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Lynch has served as the interim Chief Executive Officer since March 2020.
In connection with the Private Placement on August 17, 2021, the Company appointed Michael Serruya to its Board of Directors.
Factors Affecting Performance
Company management believes that the nascent cannabis industry represents an extraordinary opportunity in which the Company’s performance and success depend on a number of factors:
| ● | Market Expansion. The Company’s success in achieving a desirable retail footprint is attributable to its market expansion strategy, which was a key driver of revenue growth. The Company exercises discretion in focusing on investing in retail locations that can deliver near term increased earnings to the Company. |
| ● | Retail Growth. MedMen stores are located in premium locations in markets such as California, Nevada, Arizona, Illinois and Florida. As it continues to increase sales, the Company expects to leverage its retail footprint to develop a robust distribution model. |
| ● | Direct-to-Consumer Channel Rollout. MedMen Delivery is available in California. The Company benefited from increased traction with in-store pickup as well as delivery service, curbside pickup and loyalty rewards program. |
| ● | COVID-19. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the U.S. and other countries across the world, and the duration and ultimate magnitude of COVID-19, including the extent of its overall impact on our financial and operational results, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The overall impact will depend on the length of time that the pandemic continues, the extent to which it affects our ability to raise capital, and the effect of governmental regulations imposed in response to the pandemic as well as uncertainty regarding all of the foregoing. At this time, it is unclear how long these measures may remain in place, what additional measures maybe imposed, or when our operations will be restored to the levels that existed prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to implement and evaluate actions to strengthen its financial position and support the continuity of its business and operations. |
Trends
MedMen is subject to various trends that could have a material impact on the Company, its financial performance and condition, and its future outlook. A deviation from expectations for these trends could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking information included in this MD&A and the Company’s financial statements. These trends include, but are not limited to, the liberalization of cannabis laws, popular support for cannabis legalization, and balanced supply and demand in states. Refer to the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” contained in Item 7 of the Company’s Form 10.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
For the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company derived the majority of its revenue from direct sales to customers in its retail stores. Approximately 60% of revenue was generated from operations in California, with the remaining 40% from operations in Arizona, Nevada, Illinois and Florida. Revenue through retail stores is recognized upon delivery of the goods to the customer and when collection is reasonably assured, net of an estimated allowance for sales returns.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Gross profit is revenue less cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold includes the costs directly attributable to product sales and includes amounts paid for finished goods, such as flower, edibles and concentrates, packaging and other supplies, fees for services and processing, and allocated overhead, such as allocations of rent, administrative salaries, utilities and related costs. Cannabis costs are affected by various state regulations that limit the sourcing and procurement of cannabis product, which may create fluctuations in gross profit over comparative periods as the regulatory environment changes. Gross margin measures gross profit as a percentage of revenue.
Expenses
General and administrative expenses represent costs incurred in MedMen’s corporate offices, primarily related to personnel costs, including salaries, incentive compensation, benefits, share-based compensation and professional service costs, including legal and accounting. Sales and marketing expenses consist of selling costs to support customer relationships and to deliver product to retail stores. It also includes an investment in marketing and brand activities and the corporate infrastructure required to support the ongoing business. Depreciation and amortization expenses represent the portion of the Company’s definite-lived property, plant and equipment and intangible assets that is being used up during the reporting period. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration expense represent the realized gain or loss upon the settlement of contingent liabilities related to the Company’s business acquisitions and the unrealized gain or loss on the changes in fair value of such outstanding liabilities upon remeasurement at each reporting period. Impairment expense represents the permanent reduction of an assets carrying value down to fair value and may include inventory, property, plant, and equipment, intangible assets, goodwill and other assets. Other operating income and expenses consist of the gain on disposal of assets from assets held for sale and discontinued operations, restructuring fees or reorganization expenses, gain or loss on settlement of accounts payable, and gain on lease terminations.
Income Taxes
MedMen is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates and, consequently, income tax expense is a function of the allocation of taxable income by jurisdiction and the various activities that impact the timing of taxable events. As the Company operates in the legal cannabis industry, the Company is subject to the limits of Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 280E under which the Company is only allowed to deduct expenses directly related to sales of product. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC Section 280E and a higher effective tax rate than most industries. However, the state of California does not conform to IRC Section 280E and, accordingly, the Company deducts all operating expenses on its California Franchise Tax Returns.

Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended September 25, 2021 was $39.8 million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 13%, compared to revenue of $35.1 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. For the three months ended September 25, 2021, MedMen had 27 active retail locations in the states of California, New York, Nevada, Arizona, Illinois and Florida, of which four were located within the state of New York were classified as discontinued operations, compared to 26 active retail locations in the same period in the prior year. For the fiscal first quarter of 2022, five retail locations in the state of Florida have remained temporarily closed in order to redirect inventory from its Eustis cultivation facility to its highest performing stores. As of September 25, 2021, the Company had 23 active retail locations related to continuing operations. Subsequent to September 25, 2021, the Company reopened its Tallahassee, Florida location.
The increase in revenue was primarily related to the Company’s initiatives as it recovers from the COVID-19 impact on business and occupancy restrictions. During the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company continued to elevate its product offering, revamp its pricing and assortment strategy, and focus on driving retail traffic. Specifically in California, where retail revenue increased $3.9 million during the current period compared to the fiscal first quarter of 2021, the Company saw increased engagement through its customer relationship strategy and focused on marketing and advertising initiatives as COVID-19 restrictions began to lift. In addition, retail revenue in Arizona increased $1.4 million compared to the three months ended September 26, 2020 as a result of the Company’s focus on driving retail traffic after the state-wide transition to adult-use during the spring of calendar year 2021. Previously modified store operations based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and local ordinances, which limit in-store traffic for certain locations, began to operate at a less restrictive scale since the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021 as COVID-19 related restrictions began to lift, resulting in increased tourism and normalizing retail traffic levels. As the Company’s key markets continue to recover from the pandemic, MedMen expects to continue utilizing their tailored marketing initiatives and revised assortment to drive and serve retail traffic at a much higher volume and rate.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 25, 2021was $22.3 million, an increase of $3.6 million, or 19%, compared with $18.7 million of cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 26, 2020. Gross profit for the three months ended September 25, 2021 was $17.5 million, representing a gross margin of 44%, compared with gross profit of $16.4 million, representing a gross margin of 47%, for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease in gross margin is primarily due to increased promotional activity during the fiscal first quarter of 2022. In addition, during the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company recognized an inventory write-down of approximately $860,000 at one of its cultivation and production facilities.
For the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company had 27 active retail locations in the states of California, New York, Nevada, Arizona, Illinois and Florida, of which four were located within the state of New York were classified as discontinued operations, compared to 26 active retail locations for the comparative prior period. MedMen operated five cultivation and production facilities in the states of Nevada, California, New York, Florida and Arizona during the three months ended September 25, 2021, of which one facility located in New York was classified as discontinued operations, compared to six cultivation facilities for the three months ended September 26, 2020. MedMen expects margins to improve in the coming periods as the Company continues to test its retail pricing strategy and improve operating efficiencies at its cultivation and production facilities. Subsequent to the fiscal first quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a strategic partnership for its cultivation and production facilities in California and Nevada where the Company had incurred significant fixed costs, wherein licensed operations will be carried on under management agreements while also supplying product for the Company’s private label in California and Nevada.
Total Expenses
Total expenses for the three months ended September 25, 2021 were $46.5 million, an increase of $36.1 million, or 347%, compared to total expenses of $10.4 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020, which represents 117% of revenue for the three months ended September 25, 2021, compared to 30% of revenue for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The increase in total expenses was attributable to the factors described below.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 were $36.5 million and $30.2 million, respectively, an increase of $6.3 million, or 21%. Despite the Company’s continued efforts to reduce company-wide selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), general and administrative expenses have increased primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in professional fees as a result of litigation costs associated with previous officers of the Company.
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 were $0.7 million and $0.2 million, respectively, an increase of $0.5 million, or 250%. The increase in sales and marketing expenses is primarily attributed to an increase in marketing and advertising of $0.3 million and an increase in customer relationship tools of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021 compared to the same period prior as a result of the Company’s increased marketing initiatives to drive retail traffic as COVID-19 restrictions began to lift, tourism increased, and certain states moved towards regulatory approval of recreational marijuana.
Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 was $7.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 13%. The decrease is attributable to the reduction in capital expenditures through a delay in capital-intensive projects as part of the Company’s turnaround plan and as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a decrease in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
Realized and unrealized changes in fair value of contingent consideration remained generally consistent for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 in the amount of nil and $0.3 million, respectively.
Impairment expense for the three months ended September 25, 2021 and September 26, 2020 was $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 50%. During the comparative prior period, the Company recognized impairment related to a California dispensary license upon classification as assets held for sale. During the current period, the Company recognized an impairment on an intellectual property asset in the amount of $0.4 million.
Other operating expense (income) for the three months ended September 25, 2021 was $1.9 million, a decrease of $31.0 million, or 107% from other operating income of $29.1 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. During the comparative prior period, the Company recognized a gain on lease terminations of $16.6 million and a gain on disposal of assets of held for sale of $12.4 million, compared to nil in the current period. On July 2, 2020, the Company amended its lease terms with the REIT wherein a portion of the total currently monthly base rent will be deferred for the 36-month period from July 1, 2020 and July 1, 2023. On August 10, 2020, the Company transferred operations and control of MME Evanston Retail, LLC and recorded a $12.4 million gain on disposal of assets held for sale upon deconsolidation.
Total Other Expense
Total other expense for the three months ended September 25, 2021 was $5.5 million, a decrease of $14.8 million, or 73%, compared to total other expense of $20.3 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease in total other expense was primarily attributable to the loss on extinguishment of debt of $10.1 million in the comparative prior period, compared to the net gain on extinguishment of debt of $10.2 million in the current period as a result of the $12.4 million gain on extinguishment of debt related to the Sixth Amendment, offset by the $2.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the settlement of the unsecured promissory note in connection with the Private Placement.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income tax expense for the three months ended September 25, 2021 was $19.7 million, an increase of $7.4 million, or 60% compared to the provision for income tax expense of $12.3 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to the Company reporting increased expenses subject to IRC Section 280E relative to pre-tax book loss. The Company incurred a large amount of expenses that were not deductible due to IRC Section 280E limitations which resulted in income tax expense being incurred while there were pre-tax losses for the three months ended September 25, 2021.
Net Loss
Net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 25, 2021 was $54.2 million, an increase of $27.6 million, or 104%, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $26.6 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The increase in net loss from continuing operations was mainly attributable to the decrease of $31.0 million in other operating expense (income) as a result of gains recognized for transactions during the fiscal first quarter of 2021. In addition, general and administrative expenses increased by $6.3 million during the three months ended September 25, 2021 as a result of higher legal and professional fees related to ongoing litigation. This was offset by a $20.3 million decrease in (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt due to the gain of $12.4 million recognized in connection with the Sixth Amendment of the Convertible Facility offset by a loss of $2.2 million related to the settlement of the unsecured promissory note during the fiscal first quarter of 2022. Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest for the three months September 25, 2021 was $5.3 million, resulting in net loss of $55.3 million attributable to the shareholders of MedMen Enterprises Inc. compared to $21.9 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on GAAP, the Company provides additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision-making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate the Company’s financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures (collectively, the “non-GAAP financial measures”) are defined in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” included in the Company’s Form 10.
Non-GAAP financial measures are financial measures that are not defined under GAAP. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assess the Company’s ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business, as they facilitate comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures and believes they enhance an investors’ understanding of the Company’s financial and operating performance from period to period. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate the Company’s operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management.
In particular, the Company continues to make investments in its cannabis properties and management resources to better position the organization to achieve its strategic growth objectives which have resulted in outflows of economic resources. Accordingly, the Company uses these metrics to measure its core financial and operating performance for business planning purposes. In addition, the Company believes investors use both GAAP and non-GAAP measures to assess management’s past and future decisions associated with its priorities and allocation of capital, as well as to analyze how the business operates in, or responds to, swings in economic cycles or to other events that impact the cannabis industry. However, these measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies in the Company’s industry. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain material non-cash items and certain other adjustments the Company believes are not reflective of its ongoing operations and performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to represent and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as measures of liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any standardized measure under GAAP. For example, certain of these non-GAAP financial measures:
| ● | exclude certain tax payments that may reduce cash available to the Company; |
| ● | do not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; |
| ● | do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and |
| ● | do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on debt. |
Other companies in the cannabis industry may calculate these measures differently than the Company does, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Retail Performance
Within the cannabis industry, MedMen is uniquely focused on the retail component of the value chain. For the fiscal first quarter of 2022, the Company is providing detail with respect to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) attributable to the Company’s national retail operations to show how it is leveraging its retail footprint and strategically investing in the future. The table below highlights the Company’s national Retail Adjusted EBITDA Margin (Non-GAAP), which excludes corporate marketing expenses, distribution expenses, inventory adjustments, and local cannabis and excise taxes. Entity-wide Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) is presented in Item 2 “Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

| (3) | Other non-retail operating expenses excluded from Retail Adjusted EBITDA Margin (Non-GAAP) for the fiscal quarters ended September 25, 2021 and June 26, 2021 primarily consist of transaction costs and restructuring costs of $5.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, and share-based compensation of $1.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, as commonly excluded from Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP). |
The non-GAAP retail performance measures demonstrate the Company’s four-wall margins which reflect the sales of the Company’s retail operations relative to the direct costs required to operate such dispensaries. Retail revenue is related to net sales from the Company’s stores, excluding non-retail revenue, such as cultivation and manufacturing revenue. Similarly, retail cost of goods sold and direct store operating expenses are directly related to the Company’s retail operations. Non-Retail Revenue includes revenue from third-party wholesale sales. Non-Retail Cost of Goods Sold includes costs directly related to third-party wholesale sales produced by the Company’s cultivation and production facilities, such as packaging, materials, payroll, rent, utilities, security, etc. While third-party sales were not significant for the fiscal quarter ended September 25, 2021, Non-Retail Cost of Goods Sold related to cultivation and wholesale operations was $4.0 million due to unallocated overages from increased production burn rate. Non-Retail Operating Expenses include ongoing costs related to the Company’s cultivation and wholesale operations, corporate spending, and depreciation and amortization. Non-Retail EBITDA Margin reflects the gross margins of the Company’s cultivation and wholesale operations excluding any related operating expenses. To determine the Company’s four-wall margins, certain costs that do not directly support the Company’s retail function are excluded from Retail Adjusted EBITDA Margin (Non-GAAP).
For the fiscal first quarter of 2022, retail revenue was $38.5 million across the Company’s continuing operations in California, Nevada, Arizona, Illinois and Florida. This represents a 5% decrease, or $2.2 million, over the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021 of $40.7 million. The decrease in retail revenue from continuing operations was primarily driven by a decrease of $0.9 million in Florida, $0.7 million in Nevada, and $0.5 million in California. While there were multiple reasons for the decrease in retail revenue, we believe the primary factors were heightened restrictions due to the Delta variant of COVID-19 and increased competition in certain markets.
Retail Gross Margin Rate (Non-GAAP), which is Retail Gross Margin (Non-GAAP) divided by Retail Revenue (Non-GAAP), for the fiscal first quarter of 2022 was 52% compared to the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021 of 55%. Retail Gross Margin (Non-GAAP) is Retail Revenue (Non-GAAP) less the related Retail Cost of Goods Sold (Non-GAAP). The Company had an aggregate Retail Adjusted EBITDA Margin Rate (Non-GAAP), which is Retail Adjusted EBITDA Margin (Non-GAAP) divided by Retail Revenue (Non-GAAP), of 17% for the fiscal first quarter of 2022 which represents a decrease compared to the 22% realized in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021 primarily due to an inventory adjustment of $0.9 million and increased promotional activity. Direct store operating expenses include, but are not limited to, rent, utilities, payroll and payroll related expenses, employee benefits, security, local taxes and distribution expenses, which increased $0.1 million, or 1%, compared to the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021.
Corporate SG&A
Corporate-level general and administrative expenses across various functions including Marketing, Legal, Retail Corporate, Technology, Accounting and Finance, Human Resources and Security (collectively referred to as “Corporate SG&A”) are combined to account for a significant proportion of the Company’s total general and administrative expenses. Corporate SG&A also includes pre-opening expenses related to general and administrative expenses incurred by the Company at non-operational retail locations, which such expenses would be classified as direct store operating expenses following its opening.

For the fiscal first quarter of 2022, Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) includes Corporate SG&A (Non-GAAP) of $18.9 million, representing an increase of $2.1 million, or 13%, from the $16.8 million that Corporate SG&A (Non-GAAP) contributed to Adjusted EBITDA Loss from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) in the fiscal fourth quarter of 2021. The increase was related to higher legal and professional fees primarily due to ongoing litigation.

The income tax effect is calculated using the federal statutory rate of 21.0% and statutory rate for the state in which the related asset is held or the transaction occurs, most of which is in California with a statutory rate of 8.84%. |
Adjusted Net Loss from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) represents the profitability of the Company excluding unusual and infrequent expenditures and non-cash operating costs. The change in Adjusted Net Loss from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) was primarily due to the increase in general and administrative expense of $6.3 million as described above. In addition, amortization of debt discount increased $6.1 million in the fiscal first quarter of 2022 compared to the prior period due to increases in the Company’s effective interest rate as a result of debt modifications and extinguishments.
EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) represents the Company’s current operating profitability and ability to generate cash flow and includes significant non-cash operating costs. Net Loss is adjusted for interest and financing costs as a direct result of debt financings, income taxes, and amortization and depreciation expense to arrive at EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP). Considering these adjustments, the Company had EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) of $(9.1) million for the three months ended September 25, 2021 compared to $4.3 million for the comparative prior period. The change in EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) was primarily due to other non-cash operating costs for disposal of assets held for sale, lease modifications, and extinguishments of debt as described above. For the three months ended September 25, 2021, Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations (Non-GAAP) of $(14.6) million increased compared to $(12.6) million for the three months ended September 26, 2020, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in general and administrative expenses affecting Net Loss. The financial performance of the Company is expected to improve as the Company has a clear path towards profitability, and coupled with its stabilized liquidity, is properly repositioned the Company for growth. Refer to Item 2 “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for further discussion of management’s future outlook.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $23.0 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021, an increase of $4.8 million, or 26%, compared to $18.2 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease in cash used was primarily due changes in other non-cash operating costs that offset the increase in net loss as a result of the increase in general and administrative expenses of $6.3 million and the increase in accretion of debt discount of $6.1 million. Specifically, the Company did not recognize any gain on lease modifications or gain on disposal of assets held for sale in the current period compared to an aggregate gain of $28.3 million in the prior period. This was positively impacted by the gain on extinguishment of debt of $10.2 million and the gain on changes in fair value of derivative liabilities of $2.1 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021.

Net cash used in investing activities was $3.6 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021, a decrease of $13.3 million, or 137%, compared to $9.7 million provided for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The decrease in net cash provided in investing activities was primarily due to the Company’s strategic plan to divest non-core assets during the comparative prior period, resulting in $10.0 million received from proceeds from the sale of assets held for sale. Net cash was also impacted by an increase in purchases of property and equipment of $2.9 million as the Company reopened construction-in-progress during the fiscal first quarter of 2022.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $93.2 million for the three months ended September 25, 2021, an increase of $84.6 million, or 984%, compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. The increase in change of net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the $95.0 million for the issuance of equity instruments for cash and the $5.0 million from the unsecured promissory note. The increase in debt and equity financings was offset by payments of stock issuance costs of $5.4 million in connection with such capital transactions.
Financial Condition
The following table summarizes certain aspects of the Company’s financial condition as of September 25, 2021 and June 26, 2021:
| | September 25, | | | June 26, | | | | | | | |
($ in Millions) | | 2021 | | | 2021 | | | $ Change | | | % Change | |
| | (unaudited) | | | (audited) | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | | $ | 78.2 | | | $ | 11.9 | | | $ | 66.3 | | | | 557 | % |
Total Current Assets | | $ | 165.5 | | | $ | 96.7 | | | $ | 68.8 | | | | 71 | % |
Total Assets | | $ | 531.9 | | | $ | 472.5 | | | $ | 59.4 | | | | 13 | % |
Total Current Liabilities | | $ | 345.2 | | | $ | 288.6 | | | $ | 56.6 | | | | 20 | % |
Notes Payable, Net of Current Portion | | $ | 199.1 | | | $ | 258.4 | | | $ | (59.3 | ) | | | (23 | %) |
Total Liabilities | | $ | 732.9 | | | $ | 726.1 | | | $ | 6.8 | | | | 1 | % |
Total Shareholders’ Equity | | $ | (201.0 | ) | | $ | (253.6 | ) | | $ | 52.6 | | | | (21 | %) |
Working Capital Deficit | | $ | (179.7 | ) | | $ | (191.9 | ) | | $ | 12.2 | | | | (6 | %) |
As of September 25, 2021, the Company had $78.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $179.7 million of working capital deficit, compared to $11.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $191.9 million of working capital deficit as of June 26, 2021. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due the $100.0 million Private Placement during the fiscal first quarter of 2022 which helped stabilize liquidity and will allow the Company to prioritize new market opportunities and existing operations over near-term balance sheet management. In addition, on August 17, 2021, the Company amended the Convertible Facility wherein the maturity date was extended to August 17, 2028 and any cash interest obligation was eliminated, instead providing for paid-in-kind interest.
The $12.2 million decrease in working capital deficit was primarily related to an increase of $66.3 million in cash as described above and an increase of $4.5 million in assets held for sale related to the classification of the cultivation and production facilities in California and Nevada to held for sale during the three months ended September 25, 2021. The increase in current liabilities was due to an increase of $28.4 million in derivative liabilities related to the top-up provision of the Convertible Facility and the Short-Term Warrant under the Private Placement recognized during the fiscal first quarter of 2022, an increase of $7.1 million in current notes payable primarily related to the existing senior secured term loan, an increase of $5.5 million in liabilities held for sale related to the cultivation and production facilities noted above and an increase of $19.0 million in income taxes payable, offset by a $4.5 million decrease in other current liabilities related to a decrease in acquisition payable as a result of settlements during the current period and a decrease in accrued interest payable as a result of the Sixth Amendment of the Convertible Facility.
The Company’s working capital will be significantly impacted by continued growth in retail operations, the operationalization of existing licenses, and the continued stewardship of the Company’s financial resources. The ability to fund working capital needs will also be dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional debt and equity financing.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of the business, including operationalizing existing licenses, capital expenditures, debt service and acquisitions. The primary source of liquidity has primarily been private and/or public financing and to a lesser extent by cash generated from sales. The ability to fund operations, to make planned capital expenditures, to execute on the growth/acquisition strategy, to make scheduled debt and rent payments and to repay or refinance indebtedness depends on the Company’s future operating performance and cash flows, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond its control. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to settle obligations and liabilities when due.
As of September 25, 2021, the Company had $78.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $179.7 million of working capital deficit, compared to $11.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $191.9 million of working capital deficit as of June 26, 2021. For the three months ended September 25, 2021, the Company’s monthly burn rate, which was calculated as cash spent per month in operating activities, was approximately $7.7 million compared to a monthly burn rate of approximately $6.1 million for the three months ended September 26, 2020. During the fiscal first quarter of 2022, the Company shifted its focus from a turnaround plan that took place during fiscal year 2021, which resulted in the divestiture of non-core assets and lease modifications, and turned to a growth plan with new capital to capitalize on further opportunities. As of September 25, 2021, cash generated from ongoing operations may not be sufficient to fund operations and, in particular, to fund the Company’s growth strategy in the short-term or long-term.
The restructuring of the Convertible Facility and the successful closing of the Private Placement with investors led by SPE during the fiscal first quarter of 2022 stabilized the Company’s liquidity and properly positions the Company for growth to profitability. Management evaluated its financial condition as of September 25, 2021 in conjunction with recent transactions which free up capital subsequent to the current reporting period as discussed below.
Partnership with Foundry Works, Inc.
On October 1, 2021, the Company announced that LitHouse Farms, a subsidiary of Foundry Works, Inc. (“Foundry”), will manage its cultivation and manufacturing operations at its facilities in Desert Hot Springs, California (“DHS”) and Sparks, Nevada (“Sparks”). Licensed operations at the facilities will be carried on under management agreements which include purchase options for nominal consideration, subject to regulatory approval. Concurrent with the transaction, Foundry entered into a sublease agreement for DHS worth approximately $3,200,000 per year beginning in its first year, increasing to approximately $4,600,000 per year in its sixth year, subject to 3% annual escalators thereafter through March 2039. Foundry also entered into a sublease agreement for Sparks worth approximately $2,400,000 per year beginning in its first year, increasing to approximately $3,400,000 per year in its sixth year, subject to 3% annual escalators thereafter through January 2039. The cash flow accretive partnership will help reduce the significant fixed costs associated with the facilities. Refer to “Note 4 – Assets Held for Sale” of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 for further information.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no material undisclosed off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on its results of operations, financial condition, revenues or expenses, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies, Significant Judgments and Estimates and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no changes in critical accounting policies, estimates and assumptions from the information provided in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” included in the Form 10 for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2021 that have a significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal quarter ended September 25, 2021. See “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 for recently adopted accounting standards. For more information on the Company’s critical accounting estimates, refer to the annual MD&A for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2021. A detailed description of our critical accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements are detailed in Item 8 of the 2021 Form 10.
Transactions with Related Parties
All related party balances due from or due to the Company as of September 25, 2021 and June 26, 2021 did not have any formal contractual agreements regarding payment terms or interest. For amounts due from and to related parties, refer to “Note 19 – Related Party Transactions” of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended September 25, 2021 in Item 1.
Gotham Green Partners
As discussed in Item 2 “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and Item 2 “Quarterly Highlights”, the Company has engaged in a strategic partnership with Gotham Green Partners, a related party. The arrangement is to provide financing to the Company in the form of a credit facility up to $250,000,000 accessed through issuances of convertible senior secured notes (the “Notes”) co-issued by the Company and MM CAN USA, Inc. The Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into Subordinate Voting Shares at any time prior to the close of business on the last business day immediately preceding the maturity date of April 23, 2022. In addition, upon issuance of any Notes, the lenders are issued share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) of the Company, each of which are exercisable to purchase one Subordinate Voting Share for 36 months from the date of issue. The Notes and the Warrants, and any Subordinate Voting Shares issuable as a result of a conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Warrants, will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance of such Notes or such Warrants, as applicable, in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. While the Notes are outstanding, the lenders will be entitled to the collective rights to appoint a representative to attend all meetings of the Board of Directors in a non-voting observer capacity. Wicklow Capital and GGP have the right to approve director nominees submitted by the Company. GGP can nominate one member to the Board of Directors so long as GGP has at least 10% of the Class B Subordinate Shares on fully-diluted basis. Upon the appointment to the Board, GGP ceases its right to have a non-voting observer seat. The convertible facility bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 6.0% per annum. All convertible notes will have a maturity date of 36 months from the maturity date, with a twelve-month extension feature available to the Company on certain conditions. As of November 5, 2021, the Company has drawn down on approximately $165,000,000 of the Convertible Facility. Refer to “Note 11 – Senior Secured Convertible Credit Facility” of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended September 25, 2021 in Item 1.
Tilray, Inc.
In August 2021, Tilray, Inc. acquired the majority of the outstanding Notes and Warrants held by GGP in which a newly formed limited partnership established by Tilray and other strategic investors acquired 75% of the outstanding Notes and 65% of the outstanding warrants under the Convertible Facility. Specifically, Tilray’s interest in the SPV represents rights to 68% of the Notes and related Warrants held by the SPV, which are convertible into, and exercisable for, approximately 21% of the outstanding Class B Subordinate Voting Shares of MedMen. While the Notes are outstanding, Tilray will have the right to appoint two representatives to attend all meetings of the Board of Directors in a non-voting observer capacity.
Serruya Private Equity, Inc.
In August 2021, the Company executed an equity offering with various investors led by Serruya Private Equity, Inc. in which the Company issued 416,666,640 Subordinate Voting Shares and 104,166,660 warrants for gross proceeds of $100,000,000. SPE can nominate one member to the Board of Directors so long as SPE has at least 9% of the Class B Subordinate Voting Shares on fully-diluted basis. In connection with the Private Placement, the Company appointed Michael Serruya, SPE’s Managing Director, as a member of its board of directors.
SierraConstellation Partners
In March 2020, the Company entered into restructuring plan and retained interim management and advisory firm, SierraConstellation Partners (“SCP”), to support the Company in the development and execution of its turnaround and restructuring plan. As part of the engagement, Tom Lynch, a Partner and Senior Managing Director at SCP, was appointed as Interim Chief Executive Officer, and Tim Bossidy, a Director at SCP, was appointed as Interim Chief Operating Officer. In December 2020, Mr. Lynch was elected as Chairman of the Board and in July 2021, Mr. Lynch was permanently appointed as Chief Executive Officer. Also in December 2020, Reece Fulgham, a Managing Director at SCP, was appointed as Interim Chief Financial Officer. As of September 25, 2021, the Company had paid $1,255,473 in fees to SCP for interim management and restructuring support during the current fiscal year. In addition, during the three months ended September 25, 2021, Mr. Lynch and Mr. Bossidy each received 214,030 stock options. To date, as of September 25, 2021, the Company has granted 4,696,435 restricted stock units to its executive officers who are directors at SCP.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Section 2(a) of the Exchange Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Start-ups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. The Company has elected to take advantage of this extended transition period and as a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
ITEM 3. QUANTITAVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Information not required to be filed by smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15-d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), as of September 25, 2021, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 25, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements attributable to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Assessments of any evaluation of controls’ effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements as a result of error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Other than noted below, there have been no material developments during the fiscal quarter covered by this Report for our legal proceedings that were disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on September 24, 2021.
As previously reported, on December 10, 2020, a lawsuit was filed against the Company in the Superior Court of California for Los Angeles by Matthew Abrams, Jeremy Abrams, Judith Abrams, Scott Angone and Mark Malan, former owners of MattnJeremy, Inc., d/b/a One Love Beach Club (“One Love”), alleging that the Company owes the plaintiffs additional cash and shares as a true-up payment in connection with the acquisition by the Company of OneLove in September 2019. In the complaint, the plaintiffs allege breach of contract, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair delaying, fraud and unjust enrichment, among other causes of actions. The plaintiffs are seeking the issuance of 51,716,141 shares, damages resulting from the failure to issue shares, compensatory and punitive damages, costs and attorneys’ fees and other relief granted by the court. While it is too early to predict the outcome of the case or whether an adverse result would have a material adverse impact on our operations or financial position, we believe we have meritorious defenses and intend to defend this legal matter vigorously. In August 2021, the parties signed a partial settlement agreement whereby the Company agreed to pay $1,050,000, $360,000 of which has been paid and the remainder to be paid in six payments of $115,000 per month. The dispute related to the issuance of shares remains outstanding.
