Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On January 31, 2022, Greenlane Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Greenlane”) issued a press release announcing certain preliminary unaudited financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made by the Company under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events.
The preliminary estimated and unaudited financial data announced by the Company on January 31, 2022 are provided below.
On a preliminary (unaudited) basis, the Company anticipates net sales of between approximately $55.5 million and $56.5 million for the fourth quarter and between approximately $165.5 million and $166.5 million for the full year ended December 31, 2021.
The 54% year-over-year increase in net sales was primarily driven by an increase in sales of Greenlane Brands, as well as the KushCo merger.
In addition, the Company anticipates gross margins of between 18% and 20% for the fourth quarter and between approximately 15% and 16% for the full year ended December 31, 2021.
Greenlane’s estimated and unaudited consolidated financial data presented above are preliminary and were prepared by management in good faith based upon internal reporting for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2021. Although Greenlane has not identified any unusual or unique events or trends that occurred during the period which might materially affect these estimates, actual results may still be outside of the ranges provided. Greenlane’s independent registered public accounting firm, Marcum LLP, has not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures on this preliminary financial data. You should not place undue reliance on this preliminary and estimated financial information and should view this information in the context of Greenlane’s fourth quarter 2021 results when such results are disclosed in Greenlane’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2021.
