Curaleaf Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(in thousands, except for gram, share and per share amounts)
Note 1 — Operations of the company
Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “Curaleaf'' or the "Group"), was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada on November 13, 2014. Curaleaf operates as a life science company developing full scale cannabis operations, with core competencies in cultivation, manufacturing, dispensing, and cannabis research.
On October 25, 2018, the Company completed a reverse takeover transaction, and completed a related private placement which closed one day prior on October 24, 2018 (collectively, the “Business Combination”). Following the Business Combination, the Company’s subordinate voting shares (“SVS”) were listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the symbol “CURA” and quoted on the OTCQX ® Best Market under the symbol “CURLF”. The head office of the Company is located at 420 Lexington Ave, New York, New York 10170. The Company’s registered and records office address is located at Suite 1700-666 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
For the purposes of these amended and restated unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements”), the terms “Company” and “Curaleaf” mean Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. and, unless otherwise indicated, includes its subsidiaries. Any references to the cultivation, processing, manufacturing, extraction, retail operations, dispensing or distribution of cannabis, logistics, or similar terms specifically relate only to the Company’s licensed subsidiary entities. Operations of the licensed subsidiary entities are dependent on each entity’s license type, and the applicable local law and associated regulations.
Note 2 — Basis of presentation
The Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with ASC 270 - Interim Reporting. The Company is reissuing Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements previously prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) following the Company’s adoption of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for the 2022 and comparative 2021 annual consolidated financial statements. The Company’s significant accounting policies and methods of application are described in Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the annual audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared consistent with those accounting policies. All comparable periods contained herein, which were previously presented in IFRS, have been converted to GAAP.
GAAP differs in some respects from IFRS and thus may not be comparable to financial statements of Canadian companies that are prepared in accordance with IFRS. Due to differences in accounting treatments between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, amounts historically reported for the Company’s financial position, operating results, and cash flows under IFRS changed from those which are currently reported under U.S. GAAP in these Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements. The Company has sought its accounting treatment and disclosures to align with those required under IFRS and GAAP so as to minimize the differences, these Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements do not include any explanation of the principal differences or any reconciliation between IFRS and GAAP.
Functional and presentation currency
The Company’s and its United States (“U.S.”) subsidiaries’ functional currency, is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). These Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements are presented in thousands USD unless otherwise stated. The Company’s international subsidiaries’ functional currencies, are the Sterling Pound, the Euro, and the Swiss Franc. The financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries are translated to USD using the period’s average rate for profit and loss amounts and the period end rate for balance sheet items. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translation adjustments are recognized within accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of equity. Transactional exchange gains and losses are included in Other income (expense), net.
Basis of consolidation
These Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements include the financial information of the Company and its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany balance and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The Company consolidates legal entities in which it holds a controlling financial interest. The Company follows a two-tier consolidation assessment model, first focusing on a qualitative assessment of the Company’s ability to exercise power over significant activities and have exposure to potentially significant benefits or losses (the variable interest model), and second focusing on voting rights (the voting interest model). All entities are first evaluated to determine if they are variable interest entities (“VIEs”). If an entity is determined not to be a VIE, it is assessed on the basis of voting and other decision-making rights under the voting interest model. The Company has determined that they possess the power to direct activities of their consolidated VIEs through management service agreements (see Note 22 — Variable interest entities), or other similar arrangements.
The following are the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and other entities consolidated on a basis other than of ownership in these Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements:

All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
Non-controlling interests (“NCI”)
Non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries represent the component of equity in consolidated subsidiaries held by third parties. Any change in ownership of a subsidiary while the controlling financial interest is retained is accounted for as an equity transaction between the controlling and non-controlling interests. In addition, when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former subsidiary will be initially measured at fair value and the difference between the carrying value and fair value of the retained interest will be recorded as a gain or loss.
Non-controlling interests with redemption features, such as put options, that are not solely within the Company’s control are considered redeemable non-controlling interests. Redeemable non-controlling interests are considered to be temporary equity and are reported in the mezzanine section between total liabilities and shareholders’ equity in the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. Redeemable non-controlling interests are recorded at the greater of carrying value, which is adjusted for the non-controlling interests’ share of net income or loss, or estimated redemption value at each reporting period. If the carrying value, after the income or loss attribution, is below the estimated redemption value at each reporting period, the Company remeasures the redeemable non-controlling interests to its redemption value.
Summary of significant accounting policies
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities and contingencies. Although actual results in subsequent periods may differ from these estimates, such estimates are developed based on the best information available to management and based on management’s best judgments at the time. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, observable trends, and various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. All significant assumptions and estimates underlying the amounts reported in these Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements and accompanying notes are regularly reviewed and updated when necessary. Changes in estimates are reflected prospectively in the financial statements based upon on-going trends, or subsequent settlements, and realization depending on the nature and predictability of the estimates and contingencies. Although management believes that all estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from these estimates.
The most significant assumptions and estimates underlying these Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements are described below.
Consolidation
The Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements include the financial position and results of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, its partially-owned subsidiaries, and those controlled by the Company by virtue of agreements, on a consolidated basis after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.
The Company consolidates legal entities in which it holds a controlling financial interest. The Company follows a two-tier consolidation assessment model, first focusing on a qualitative assessment of the Company’s ability to exercise power over significant activities and have exposure to potentially significant benefits or losses (the variable interest model), and second focusing on voting rights (the voting interest model). All entities are first evaluated to determine if they are VIEs. If an entity is determined not to be a VIE, it is assessed on the basis of voting and other decision-making rights under the voting interest model. The Company has determined that they possess the power to direct activities of their consolidated VIEs through management service agreements (see Note 22 — Variable interest entities), or other similar arrangements.
The financial statements of entities in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest are fully consolidated from the date that control commences and deconsolidated from the date control ceases.
When determining the appropriate basis of accounting for the Company’s interests in affiliates, the Company makes judgements about the degree of influence that it exerts directly or indirectly through an arrangement over the investees’ relevant activities.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable, net are stated at their net realizable value (“NRV”), which is management’s best estimate of the cash that will ultimately be received from customers. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit losses to reflect the expected uncollectability of accounts receivable and notes receivable based on historical collection data and specific risks identified among un-collected accounts, as well as management’s expectation of future economic conditions. The Company also considers relevant qualitative and quantitative factors to assess whether historical loss experience should be adjusted to better reflect the risk characteristics of the Company’s receivables and the expected future losses. If current or expected future economic trends, events, or changes in circumstances indicate that specific receivable balances may be impaired, further consideration is given to the collectability of those balances and the allowance is adjusted accordingly. Trade accounts receivable are written off after exhaustive collection efforts occur and the receivable is deemed uncollectible.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized by the Company in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”). Through application of the standard, the Company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
In order to recognize revenue under ASC 606, the Company applies the following five (5) steps:
| i. | Identify a customer along with a corresponding contract; |
| ii. | Identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract to transfer goods or provide distinct services to a customer; |
| iii. | Determine the transaction price the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer; |
| iv. | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and |
| v. | Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s). |
Revenue is recognized upon the satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company generally satisfies its performance obligation and transfers control upon delivery and acceptance of the product or service by the customer for wholesale transactions and immediately upon the sale for retail transactions. Revenue from the sales of cannabis is recorded net of sales discounts at the time of delivery to the customer. Payment is typically due upon transferring the goods to the customer or within a specified time period permitted under the Company’s credit policy.
For some of its locations, the Company offers a loyalty reward program to its dispensary customers. A portion of the revenue generated in a sale must be allocated to the loyalty points earned. The amount allocated to the points earned is deferred until the loyalty points are redeemed or expire. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the loyalty liability totaled $9.1 million and $8.7 million, respectively, and is included in the accrued liabilities on the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Accounting for acquisitions and business combinations
Classification of an acquisition as a business combination or asset acquisition can depend on whether the asset acquired constitutes a business, which can be a complex judgment.
In determining the fair value of all identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired, the most significant estimates relate to valuation of contingent consideration and intangible assets. Management exercises judgement in estimating the probability and timing of when earn-outs are expected to be achieved, which is used as the basis for estimating fair value. For any intangible asset identified, depending on the type of intangible asset and the complexity of determining its fair value, an independent valuation expert or management may develop the fair value, using appropriate valuation techniques, which are generally based on a forecast of the total expected future net cash flows.
Cannabis licenses are typically the primary intangible asset acquired in business combinations as they provide the ability to operate in each market. The key assumptions used in cash flow projections utilized to value licenses include discount rates and terminal growth rates. Of the key assumptions used, the impact of the estimated fair value of the intangible assets have the greatest sensitivity to the estimated discount rate used in the valuation. The terminal growth rate represents the rate at which these businesses will continue to grow into perpetuity. Other significant assumptions include revenue, gross profit, operating expenses and anticipated capital expenditures which are based on the historical operations of the acquiree along with management’s projections. These valuations are closely linked to the assumptions made by management regarding future performance of the assets concerned and any changes in the discount rate applied.
Contingent consideration payable as a result of a business combination is recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. The fair value of contingent consideration is subject to significant judgments and estimates, such as projected future revenue. Subsequent changes to the fair value of contingent consideration classified as a liability are measured at each reporting date, with changes recognized through profit or loss.
Share-based payment arrangements
The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of options granted to employees and directors under share-based payment arrangements, where appropriate. In instances where stock options have performance or market conditions, the Company utilizes the Monte Carlo valuation model to simulate the various outcomes that affect the value of the option. In estimating fair value, management is required to make certain assumptions and estimates such as the expected life of units, volatility of the Company’s future share price, risk free rates, and future dividend yields. Changes in assumptions used to estimate fair value could result in materially different results.
Goodwill impairment
Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired in accordance with ASC 350 Intangibles – Goodwill and other (“ASC 350”). In order to determine the amount, if any, the carrying value might be impaired, the Company performs the analysis on a reporting unit level using an income approach discounted cash flow method. Under the income approach, fair value is based on the present value of estimated cash flows. A number of factors, including historical results, business plans, forecasts, and market data are used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. Changes in the conditions for these judgments and estimates can significantly affect the assessed value of goodwill.
Inventory
In calculating final inventory values, the Company compares the inventory cost to estimated net realizable value. The NRV of inventories represents the estimated selling price for inventories in the ordinary course of business, less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to sell. The determination of NRV requires significant judgment, including consideration of factors such as shrinkage, the aging of and future demand for inventory, expected future selling price the Company expects to realize by selling the inventory, and contractual arrangements with customers. Reserves for excess and obsolete inventory are based upon quantities on hand, projected volumes from demand forecasts and net realizable value. The estimates are judgmental in nature and are made at a point in time, using available information, expected business plans, and expected market conditions. The future realization of these inventories may be affected by market-driven changes that may reduce future selling prices. As a result, the actual amount received from sale of inventories could differ from estimates. Periodic reviews are performed on the inventory balance. The impact of changes in inventory reserves is reflected in cost of goods sold.
Income taxes
The Company records tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. There is inherent uncertainty in quantifying income tax positions, especially considering the complex tax laws and regulations for federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company has recorded tax benefits for those tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will result upon ultimate settlement with a tax authority that has all relevant information. For those income tax positions where it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will result, no tax benefit has been recognized in the Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements.
Assets held for sale
The Company classifies assets held for sale in accordance with ASC 205 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“ASC 205”). When the Company makes the decision to sell an asset or to stop some part of its business, the Company assesses if such assets should be classified as an asset held for sale. To classify as an asset held for sale, the asset or disposal group must meet all of the following conditions: i) the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition, ii) management is committed to a plan to sell, iii) an active program to locate a buyer and complete the plan has been initiated, iv) the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a sales price that is reasonable in relation to its fair value, v) the sale is highly probable within one year from the date of classification, and vi) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that the plan will be significantly changed or withdrawn. An asset held for sale is measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell unless the asset held for sale meets the exceptions as denoted by ASC 205. Fair value is the amount obtainable from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction, less the costs of disposal. Once classified as held for sale, any depreciation and amortization cease to be recorded (see Note 6 — Assets and liabilities held for sale).
COVID-19 estimation uncertainty
The Company is continuing to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business. With the increased use and efficacy of vaccines and booster shots, the pandemic’s impact has been diminishing in recent months. As a result, our retail stores have experienced higher foot traffic and our operations have returned to a more normal level. While the emergence of new COVID-19 variants remains a concern, we are closely monitoring the situation and will take necessary steps to ensure the safety of our employees and customers. Future potential developments relating to COVID-19, including the emergence of new variants and/or declines in vaccine efficacy, may negatively impact our operations and result in temporary closures of our retail stores, lower retail store traffic, and staff shortages.
New, amended and future GAAP pronouncements
The Company has implemented all applicable GAAP standards recently issued by the FASB. Pronouncements that are not applicable or where it has been determined do not have a significant impact to the Company have been excluded herein.
New Accounting Guidance - Recently Adopted
In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASU 2016-13- Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (ASU 2017-12- Topic 815), and Leases (ASU 2016-02- Topic 842): Effective Dates, pushing back the effective date of these three ASUs back one year, as well as amending the mandatory effective date for the elimination of Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test (ASU 2017-04 – Topic 350). The mandatory effective date for other filing entities for ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2017-04 is for fiscal years and impairment tests performed beginning after December 15, 2022, respectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted these standards as of January 1, 2021, noting an immaterial impact on the overall financial results.
New Accounting Guidance - Not Yet Adopted
The Company reviews recently issued accounting standards on a quarterly basis and has determined there are no standards yet to be adopted which are relevant to the business for disclosure.

(1) Acquisition accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805.
(2) Acquisition accounted for as an asset acquisition with the application of the ASC 805.
(3) As no consideration was transferred related to the Broad Horizon Holdings, LLC (“BHH”) business combination, the amount listed as consideration transferred represents the gain on change in control recognized.
Certain fair values may be estimated at the acquisition date pending confirmation or completion of the valuation process. Where provisional values are used in accounting for a business combination, they may be adjusted in subsequent periods, not to exceed one year from the acquisition date. Operating results associated with acquisitions have been included in these Financial Statements from the date of acquisition.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets or liabilities of an acquired business, and is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill arising from acquisitions consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the businesses, providing the opportunity to expand our products into new markets, as well as other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. These synergies include the elimination of redundant facilities and functions and the use of the Company��s existing commercial infrastructure to expand sales.
2022 acquisitions

Former Grassroots Entities (“GR Entities”)
Through the acquisition of Grassroots, the Company has retained a transferable right to acquire from former Grassroots affiliates companies that currently own three licensed Illinois medical dispensaries and nine adult use dispensaries (collectively, the “Illinois Assets”). The right to acquire the Illinois Assets may be exercised through the conversion of certain debt which the Company treats as intercompany debt. Therefore, there would not be any accounting expense to the Company should it exercise the right to acquire the Illinois Assets. Pursuant to the Grassroots Merger Agreement, the proceeds net of expenses and taxes from the sale of Curaleaf’s rights to the Illinois Assets shall be shared by the Company with the former owners of Grassroots as follows: (i) the first $25 million of net proceeds shall be retained by the Company; (ii) the next $25 million of net proceeds shall be remitted to the former Grassroots owners; and (iii) the Company shall keep 50% of the net proceeds above $50 million, and the other 50% shall be remitted to the Grassroots owners (the “Illinois Waterfall Payment”). Also pursuant to the Grassroots Merger Agreement, the former Grassroots owners have the right to demand that, in lieu of receipt of a portion of the Illinois Waterfall Payment, that Curaleaf pay to them either (a) $25 million in cash or (b) a number of SVS that have market value equal to $30 million (the “Illinois Exit Payment”). The former owners of Grassroots gave notice of their intention to exercise their option for the Illinois Exit Payment in the form of cash and SVS in the amount of $28.3 million on October 14, 2022. For the avoidance of doubt, Curaleaf now has the sole right to proceeds from the sale of the Illinois Assets. As of September 30, 2022, the Company grossed up a liability within “Other current liabilities” for the Illinois Exit Payment that will be due to the former owners of Grassroots, which was earlier recorded as a reduction (net) of held for sale assets.
On April 1, 2021, Curaleaf and the owners of the Illinois Assets signed definitive agreements to sell the Illinois Assets to Parallel Illinois, LLC (“Parallel”). Under the terms of the transaction, the purchase price for the Illinois Assets consisted of up to $100 million base price to be paid $60 million in cash and $40 million in Parallel stock, plus earnouts of up to an additional $55 million payable through 2023. The Company received a $10 million deposit from Parallel, which was refundable under limited circumstances. On February 25, 2022, the Company received correspondence from Parallel’s attorneys indicating that it will not be in a position to complete the acquisition of the Illinois Assets due to lack of financing, among other reasons, and declared its agreement to purchase the Illinois Assets terminated. The Company has asserted that Parallel’s actions have constituted material breaches of its agreement with Parallel and on February 2, 2022 filed an arbitration against Parallel and certain principals of Parallel for breach of contract, fraudulent misrepresentation and other claims. As a result of the breach of contract, management determined that the $10 million deposit received from Parallel was no longer refundable as of June 30, 2022, and accordingly recognized a gain within the “Other income” line item in the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company signed a letter of intent to sell the Grassroots Vermont entities; PhytoScience Management Group, Inc., including Vermont Patients Alliance, LLC, PhytoScience Institute, LLC, and Nutraceutical Science Laboratories, LLC and accordingly has recorded the associated net assets of these entities as held for sale during the current period.
Additionally, the Company has been actively marketing certain rights and interests for certain real estate assets associated with the acquisition of Grassroots.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company completed the sale of Grassroots Oklahoma which resulted in a gain of approximately $1 million. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company completed the sale of its rights in its licensed cannabis dispensary in Little Rock, Arkansas, which resulted in a gain of approximately $4.5 million.
Eureka
The Company signed a letter of intent to sell ECCA Investment Partners, LLC (“Eureka”) in August 2021, and subsequently signed a purchase agreement for such sale in February 2022. The purchase agreement includes cash consideration of $0.25 million and a note receivable of $2.75 million for total consideration of $3 million. The sales price of the entity was lower than the net assets; as such, an impairment, including amounts related to the value of the license intangible asset as well as fixed assets, was recorded to bring the net assets to the estimated fair market value at the time such assets were classified as held for sale. The final sale is awaiting completion due to a post-closing covenant which would transfer the Eureka license to the purchasers upon completion of such covenant.
Pueblo West Organics
The Company completed its acquisition of PWO during the third quarter of 2022 and immediately began actively marketing certain rights and interests for certain real estate assets associated with the acquisition. In accordance with ASC 360 - Property, Plant, and Equipment, the Company classified the assets as held for sale and valued such assets at their fair market value less costs to sell as of the date of acquisition.
All assets and liabilities held for sale are included within the Domestic operations reportable segment. See Note 18 — Segment reporting , for further information regarding the Company’s segments as of September 30, 2022.

Note 9 — Leases
The Company leases real estate used for dispensaries, cultivation facilities, production plants, and corporate offices. Lease right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”) and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Some of our leases contain cancellation options in the event we are unable to obtain regulatory approval and permitting for a selected site, as well as other contingencies. In general, we do not record new lease arrangements until the cancellation period has expired without exercise, or until we are reasonably certain we will not exercise the cancellation option. The Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to calculate the present value of the contractual lease payments because the interest rate implicit in the Company’s lease arrangements is not readily determinable.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain real estate leases require payment for taxes, insurance, maintenance, and other common area charges. These variable expenses are considered non-lease components. These variable payments are excluded from the measurements of lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. The Company accounts for real estate leases and the related fixed non-lease components together as a single component.
Real estate leases typically include extension options for a period of 1–10 years. Some dispensary and office space leases include extension options exercisable up to one year before the end of the initial cancellable lease term. Typically, the option to renew the lease is for an additional period of 5 years after the end of the initial lease term and is at the option of the Company. Lease payments are in substance fixed, and certain real estate leases include annual escalation clauses with reference to an index or contractual rate.
The Company has historically entered into transactions where real estate property or equipment is sold and leased back from the buyer. These transactions are evaluated to determine if sale-leaseback accounting criteria are met. If the Company determines that it has retained control of the property or equipment, the Company records the financed lease asset in “Property and equipment, net” and a corresponding financial obligation in “Financing lease obligations” on its Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company allocates each lease payment between a reduction of the lease obligation and interest expense using the effective interest method.
The Company leases machinery and equipment under leases that are of low-value or short-term in nature and therefore no ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized for these leases. Expenses recognized relating to short-term leases and leases of low value during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021 were immaterial.
The following provides the components of lease cost, including sale leaseback arrangements, recognized in the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

In April 2021, the Company completed a sale and lease back transaction to sell its Bordentown, New Jersey cultivation and processing facility to 500 Columbia LLC. Under a long-term agreement, the Company will lease back the facility and continue to operate and manage it for a term of 12 years. As a result of the sale, which met sale leaseback criteria, the Company disposed of $0.5 million of buildings and improvements and $2.2 million of construction in progress.

In May 2021, the Company completed a sale leaseback transaction to sell its Holbrook, Arizona cultivation and processing facility to TAC Vega AZ Owner, LLC. Under a long-term agreement, the Company will lease back the facility and continue to operate and manage it for a term of 10 years. The Company maintains control of the asset, and therefore, is carrying the financed asset at net book value of $14 million in Property and equipment, net, and has recorded a financial obligation for the proceeds of the sale of $14 million. The Company did not recognize a material gain or loss on the sale related to the transaction.
In June 2022, the Company entered into three sale leaseback transactions for building improvements and equipment at cultivation and processing sites in Florida, Illinois, and Pennsylvania. Subsequent to the transactions, the Company maintains control of the assets, and therefore the assets, with a net book value of $48.7 million, are carried on the Company’s Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets as financed assets in Property & equipment, net. The Company has recorded a financial obligation of $50.1 million for the sales proceeds, which is being amortized over thirteen to fourteen-year lease periods. The company deferred $1.4 million of gains on these transactions which will be recognized over the life of the financial obligations.
In August 2022, the Company exercised an option to purchase a leased cultivation site in Massachusetts, which was previously the subject of a sale leaseback transaction in 2020, from the existing lessor for $15.0 million. The Company had previously constructed building improvements to the property with a net book value of $10.2 million. The Company subsequently sold the newly purchased building and existing improvements for $21.5 million and entered into a 23-year agreement to lease back the property and assets. The Company recognized a loss on disposal of building and improvements of $3.9 million within Other income (expense), net on the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company maintains control of the building and improvements and has recorded assets of $21.5 million in financed assets in Property and equipment, net, and has recorded a financial obligation of $21.5 million.

Senior Secured Notes – 2026
In December 2021, the Company closed on a private placement of senior secured notes due 2026, for aggregate gross proceeds of $475 million (“Senior Secured Notes – 2026”). The note indenture dated December 15, 2021 governing the Senior Secured Notes – 2026 (the “Note Indenture”) enables the Company to issue additional senior secured notes on an ongoing basis as needed, subject to maintaining leverage ratios and complying with other terms and conditions of the Note Indenture. The principal restrictions on incurring indebtedness include the requirement that a fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.5:1 and consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of 4:1 be maintained when taking into account the incurrence of additional debt. The issue of additional Senior Secured Notes or other debt pari passu to the existing notes is permitted provided that the consolidated secured debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio of 3:1 is maintained when taking into account the incurrence of additional debt, and certain other conditions are met. The Company and certain of its guarantor subsidiaries are required to grant a first lien security interest in their respective assets to the trustee appointed under the Note Indenture, including assets acquired after the issue of the Notes, subject to limited exceptions. Despite the first lien granted to the holders of the Notes, the Note Indenture permits the Company to grant a more senior lien to secure up to $200 million of additional financing from commercial banks, providing for revolving credit loans, provided that the interest rate applicable to such revolving credit loans shall be lower than the interest rate applicable to the Senior Secured Notes – 2026. The Senior Secured Notes – 2026 bear interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate of 8% per annum, compounded semi-annually and payable in arrears on June 15th and December 15th of each year during the term of the Senior Secured Notes – 2026; the first of which was paid on June 15, 2022.
The Senior Secured Notes – 2026 may be redeemed early but are subject to a prepayment premium dependent on the loan year. Any redemption made before June 15, 2023 will incur a penalty of 8% and a maximum of 35% of the aggregate principal amount of notes issued under the Note Indenture (including any additional notes issued thereunder) may be redeemed with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings that occurred within the prior 90 days. All or part of the outstanding Senior Secured Notes – 2026 may be redeemed between June 15, 2023 and June 14, 2024 with a premium of 4%; between June 15, 2024 and June 14, 2025 with a premium of 2%, or June 15, 2025 or after without a premium.
The Company recognized interest expense under the Senior Secured Notes – 2026 of $10.5 million and $31.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

The final set of promissory notes are convertible promissory notes with a principal amount totaling $60 million, which mature in January 2025 and bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum. Interest payments are not required until maturity, when all principal and accrued interest will be due. At the option of the sellers of Bloom, the third set of promissory notes may be paid by the Company issuing SVS at maturity.
All three notes may be prepaid without penalty.
The Company recognized interest expense under the Bloom Notes of $3.7 million and $10.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

In the period ended September 30, 2021, the Company issued 722,577 SVS to buyout its minority partner’s interest related to House of Herbs and Blackjack in Nevada.
In the period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company received back from the escrow agent, and concurrently retired, 980,098 and 689,563 SVS, respectively, that had previously been issued into an escrow account at the Select and Grassroots acquisition dates. The SVS were returned to the Company as the matters subject to be paid via escrow were resolved and/or the escrow resolution periods were completed.
The Company had reserved 71,071,512 and 70,834,043 SVS, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, for the issuance of stock options under the Company’s 2018 Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) (see Note 14 — Share-based payment arrangements).
Treasury shares
There were no shares repurchased into treasury during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Note 13 — Redeemable non-controlling interest
On April 7, 2021, the Company established Curaleaf International together with a strategic investor who provided initial capital of $130.8 million for 31.5% equity stake in Curaleaf International. Curaleaf and the strategic investor have entered into a shareholders’ agreement regarding the governance of Curaleaf International pursuant to which Curaleaf has control over operational issues as well as raising capital and the ability to exit the business. In addition, the strategic investor’s stake is subject to put/call rights which permit either party to cause the stake to be bought out by Curaleaf for Curaleaf equity starting the earlier of change of control or in 2025.
In connection with the acquisition of Four20 in September 2022, the selling shareholders and Curaleaf International entered into a put/call option which permits either party to trigger the roll-up of the remaining equity of Four20 two years after the launch of adult use cannabis sales in Germany, but no later than the end of 2025 if adult use launch has not occurred by such date.
The estimated redemption value of the put/calls were below their carrying value, which is recorded on the Company’s Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets as temporary equity in the amount of $117.4 million and $119.0 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Note 14 — Share-based payment arrangements
Stock option programs
The 2011 and 2015 Equity Incentive Plans provided for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and other share-based awards. In connection with the Business Combination, all unexercised stock options of Curaleaf, Inc. issued and outstanding under the 2011 and 2015 Equity Incentive Plans were converted to the option to receive an equivalent substitute option under the LTIP. The LTIP provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalents, and other share-based awards. The number of SVS reserved for issuance under the LTIP is calculated as 10% of the aggregate number of SVS and MVS outstanding on an “as-converted” basis.
During the period ended December 31, 2021, management discovered an error related to disclosures around the number of share options and RSUs forfeited, expired, and outstanding which existed during the period ended September 30, 2021 as well. See further details regarding such restatements at Note 24 — Restatement and restated September 30, 2021 amounts below.
Stock option valuation
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model, where appropriate. In instances where stock options have performance or market conditions, the Company utilizes the Monte Carlo valuation model to simulate the various outcomes that affect the value of the option.
The weighted average inputs used in the measurement of the grant date fair values of the equity-settled share-based payment plans were as follows:
| | September 30, | | |
| | 2022 | | | | | 2021 | | |
Fair value at grant date | | $ | 3.69 | | | | $ | 9.89 | | |
Share price at grant date | | $ | 7.39 | | | | $ | 13.98 | | |
Exercise price | | $ | 7.35 | | | | $ | 15.38 | | |
Expected volatility | | | 69.8 | % | | | | 76.5 | % | |
Expected life | | | 5.4 | | years | | | 6.1 | | years |
Expected dividends | | | — | % | | | | — | % | |
Risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds) | | | 1.1 | % | | | | 1.0 | % | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Total intrinsic value of options exercised (in 000s) | | $ | 5,236 | | | | $ | 65,569 | | |
Total fair value of shares vested (in 000s) | | $ | 18,022 | | | | $ | 11,883 | | |
Aggregate intrinsic value of shares outstanding at the end of the period (in 000s) | | $ | 37,060 | | | | $ | 143,420 | | |
Weighted-average remaining contractual term - shares exercisable | | | 4.9 | | years | | | 5.9 | | years |
Weighted-average remaining contractual term - shares outstanding and vested | | | 5.3 | | years | | | 6.0 | | years |
The expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility. Management believes this is the best estimate of the expected volatility over the expected life of its stock options. The expected life in years represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employees is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded share-based compensation in the amount of $5.2 million and $21.1 million, respectively, compared to $13.0 million and $31.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
Reconciliation of outstanding share options

Note 17 — Earnings per share
Basic and diluted loss per share attributable to Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. was calculated as follows:
| | Three months ended September 30, | | | Nine months ended September 30, | |
| | 2022 | | | 2021 | | | 2022 | | | 2021 | |
Numerator: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Net loss | | $ | (54,156 | ) | | $ | (86,538 | ) | | $ | (114,182 | ) | | $ | (139,142 | ) |
Less: Net loss attributable to redeemable non-controlling interest | | | (2,767 | ) | | | (3,220 | ) | | | (4,415 | ) | | | (6,161 | ) |
Net loss attributable to Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. — basic and diluted | | $ | (51,389 | ) | | $ | (83,318 | ) | | $ | (109,767 | ) | | $ | (132,981 | ) |
Denominator: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Weighted average SVS outstanding — basic and diluted | | | 709,638,533 | | | | 703,545,262 | | | | 709,802,875 | | | | 695,830,455 | |
Loss per share — basic and diluted | | $ | (0.07 | ) | | $ | (0.12 | ) | | $ | (0.15 | ) | | $ | (0.19 | ) |
The Company’s potentially dilutive securities, which include stock options to purchase shares of the Company, have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. Therefore, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to shareholders is the same. The Company excluded the following potential shares, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted loss per share attributable to Curaleaf, Inc. for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:
| | Nine months ended September 30, | |
| | 2022 | | | 2021 | |
Options to purchase SVS | | | 25,258,842 | | | | 23,831,348 | |
During the period ended December 31, 2021, management discovered an error related to Select purchase price accounting, which resulted in a change in the EPS calculation for the nine month period ended September 30, 2021. See further details regarding such restatement at Note 24 — Restatement.
Note 18 — Segment reporting
The Company operates in one segment; the cultivation, production, and sale of cannabis via retail and wholesale channels. As of and during the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company operated in two segments; Cannabis and Non-Cannabis. During the period ended March 31, 2022, the Company reevaluated the Company’s operating structure and determined that the Non-Cannabis segment is no longer a relevant or material portion of the Company’s business. For comparability purposes, total segment metrics in the prior year disclosures should be considered to be representative of the Company’s one segment presentation in the current period.
Note 19 — Commitments and contingencies
Indemnification agreements
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors and senior management team that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification agreements. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any claims under indemnification arrangements will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, and it has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in its Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements.
Litigation
The Company is involved in claims or lawsuits that arise in the ordinary course of business. Accruals for claims or lawsuits are provided to the extent that losses are deemed both probable and estimable. Although the ultimate outcome of these claims or lawsuits cannot be ascertained, on the basis of present information and advice received from counsel, it is management’s opinion that the disposition or ultimate determination of such claims or lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Among other legal disputes, the Company is currently, or was, involved in the following proceedings relating to material disputes:
Eagle Valley Holdings, LLC. On January 4, 2023, a Curaleaf subsidiary that purchased the Bloom assets in Arizona, filed suit against Eagle Valley Holdings, LLC, Q Business Consulting, LLC, LBSF, LLC, the sellers of the Bloom assets, and Edmond Vartughian, their designated representative, in Arizona Superior Court in Maricopa County, alleging breach of the contractual representations and warranties and fraudulent inducement of Curaleaf’s acquisition of the Bloom assets. The parties resolved the claims on March 21, 2023 and dismissed the suit. As part of the settlement agreement, the parties have agreed to reduce the future principal payments of the Bloom Notes (as hereinafter defined) by $10 million. The purchase price for Bloom was paid $69 million in cash on closing of the transaction, net of working capital adjustments, with the remaining approximately $160 million to be paid through the issuance of three promissory notes of $50 million, $50 million and $60 million due, respectively, on the first, second and third anniversary of closing of the transaction. Curaleaf has settled in full the $50 million note due January 2023 for $44 million and the principal of the $50 million note due January 2024 has been reduced by $4 million.
Sentia Wellness. On January 6, 2022, Measure 8 Ventures, LP, and other purchasers of debentures from Sentia Wellness, Inc. (“Sentia”), filed suit against Nitin Khanna and six other former officers, directors, and/or advisors of Sentia in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Multnomah County alleging violations of Oregon securities law by making false and misleading statements and omissions to induce the plaintiffs to purchase over $74 million of debentures in Sentia. On May 16, 2022, the defendants filed their answer to the plaintiffs’ complaint along with affirmative defenses and various counter-claims against the plaintiffs as well as claims against third-parties Curaleaf Holdings, Inc., Cura Partners, Inc., and other individuals. The third-party claims include claims for unjust enrichment, breach of fiduciary duty, and tortious interference in connection with Curaleaf’s acquisition of Cura Partners, Inc. The third-party complaint also alleges claims against Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. and Cura Partners, Inc. for indemnification as well as reimbursement and advancement of attorneys’ fees and expenses under Oregon law and Cura Partners, Inc.’s bylaws. Nitin Khanna and the third-party plaintiffs seek actual damages in an amount of $515 million and other relief. However, Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. and Cura Partners, Inc. were not targeted by all of the third-party plaintiffs claims. On October 25, 2022, Nitin Khanna and the third-party plaintiffs filed a stipulation of dismissal which was subsequently signed by the judge and which dismissed without prejudice all of their claims against Curaleaf Holdings, Inc. and Cura Partners, Inc. Mr. Clateman and Mr. Martinez have moved to dismiss all claims against them; the court has not yet scheduled argument on that motion.
Connecticut Arbitration. Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of Doubling Road Holdings, LLC, the holders (the “Holders”) of a majority of the Series A-2 Units of Doubling Road Holdings had the right (the “Put Right”) to require that PalliaTech CT, LLC or any of its affiliates purchase all of the Series A-2 Units in exchange for shares of PalliaTech, Inc. (now Curaleaf, Inc.), the parent of PalliaTech CT, pursuant to a defined “Buy-Out Exchange Ratio.” On October 25, 2018, the Holders, the Company, and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement in order to resolve a dispute with respect to the applicable Buy-Out Exchange Ratio for the Put Right. The Stipulation of Settlement provided, among other things, that PalliaTech CT purchased the Holders’ interests in exchange for (1) a payment of $40.1 million; (2) 4,755,548 SVS; and (3) the potential for additional equity in the Company depending on the results of a “Settlement Second Appraisal.” Pursuant to the Settlement Second Appraisal, dated December 12, 2019, and the terms of the Stipulation of Settlement, the Holders received 2,016,859 additional SVS. On January 23, 2020, the Holders filed claims in arbitration including for fraudulent inducement and breach of contract, relating primarily to a lock-up agreement that the Holders signed in connection with the Stipulation of Settlement. The hearing of the case took place in April 2022 and on September 6, 2022, the arbitrator issued a Final Partial Award dismissing all of the DRH plaintiffs’ claims and awarding costs of the arbitration to Curaleaf. The arbitrator issued a final award of the costs to be paid by the DRH plaintiffs to Curaleaf, and the immaterial reimbursement was received in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Securities Class Action. On August 5, 2019, a purported class action was filed against the Company, Joseph Lusardi, Neil Davidson, and Jonathan Faucher (“Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York on behalf of persons or entities who purchased or otherwise acquired publicly traded securities of the Company from November 21, 2018 to July 22, 2019. On January 6, 2020, an Amended Class Action Complaint was filed against the Defendants. The Amended Class Action Complaint alleges that the Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements regarding the Company’s CBD products based on a July 22, 2019 letter received from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA Letter”). According to the Amended Class Action Complaint, the FDA Letter states that several of the CBD products sold on the Company’s website were “misbranded drugs” in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The Amended Class Action Complaint asserts claims (1) against all Defendants for alleged violations of Section 10(b) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and (2) against Lusardi, Davidson, and Faucher for alleged violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. On March 6, 2020, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss arguing that the Amended Class Action Complaint failed to allege (1) any false or misleading statement or omission, (2) scienter, (3) any domestic transactions, or (4) control person liability. On February 15, 2021, the Company’s motion to dismiss was granted with prejudice.
Taxes
The Company records tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. There is inherent uncertainty in quantifying income tax positions, especially considering the complex tax laws and regulations for federal, state and foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company has recorded tax benefits for those tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will result upon ultimate settlement with a tax authority that has all relevant information. For those income tax positions where it is not more likely than not that a tax benefit will result, no tax benefit has been recognized in the Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements.
The Company files tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal, state and foreign jurisdictions, where applicable. The Company is currently in the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) examination Appeals process for the tax years 2016, 2017, and 2018 and the Company’s subsidiary, Curaleaf North Shore, Inc. (formerly known as Alternative Therapies Group, Inc.) is in Tax Court related to an IRS examination for 2018. As of September 30, 2022 there is reasonable possibility that the unrecognized tax benefits will change within 12 months due to expirations of statute of limitations or audit settlements.
The IRS has proposed adjustments relating to the Company’s treatment of certain expenses under Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 280E”), however, the Company is defending its tax reporting positions before the IRS. The outcome of this audit remains unclear at this point. The Company also intends to litigate any further such challenges because it currently believes all of its other tax positions can be sustained under an IRS examination. The ultimate resolution of tax matters could have a material effect on the Company’s Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements. As the IRS interpretations on Section 280E continue to evolve, the impact of any such challenges cannot be reliably estimated. The Company's tax years are still open under statute from December 31, 2016, to the present.
Note 20 — Related party transactions
Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
The EMMAC Transaction (see Note 4 — Acquisitions) constituted a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”) as a result of Measure 8 Ventures Management, LLC, an investment management company controlled by Boris Jordan, the Executive Chairman and control person of the Company (including funds managed by such entity, “Measure 8”), having an interest in the EMMAC Transaction by way of a profit interest and a convertible debt instrument which converted into shares of EMMAC representing 8% of EMMAC equity at closing of the EMMAC Transaction. Mr. Jordan owns a controlling interest in Measure 8 Management, LLC. The Company relied upon the exemptions provided under Sections 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 – Issuer Not Listed on Specified Markets and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 – Fair Market Value Not More the 25% of Market Capitalization from the requirements that the Company obtain a formal valuation of the EMMAC Transaction and that the EMMAC Transaction receive the approval of the minority shareholders of the Company.
The terms of the EMMAC Transaction and Curaleaf International Transaction were negotiated by management and advisors under guidance of, and unanimously recommended for approval by, a committee composed of members of the Board of Directors free from any conflict of interest with respect to the EMMAC Transaction and Curaleaf International Transaction (the “Special Committee”), all of which were independent members of the Board of Directors within the meaning of National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees. The Special Committee received a fairness opinion from the independent investment bank, Eight Capital, to the effect that, in its opinion, and based upon and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set forth therein, the consideration paid by the Company as part of the EMMAC Transaction was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company. The fee paid to Eight Capital in connection with the delivery of its fairness opinion was not contingent on the successful implementation of the EMMAC Transaction.
The Company incurred the following transactions with related parties during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

For three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized interest expense under the Promissory Note - 2024. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized interest expense under the Senior Secured Notes - 2026, some of which are attributable to Baldwin Holdings, LLC. The Senior Secured Notes – 2026 held by Baldwin Holdings, LLC contain certain repayment and interest components that represent on-going contractual commitments with this related party.
Note 21 — Fair value measurements and financial risk management
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, long-term debt, and redeemable non-controlling interest contingency. The fair values of cash, restricted cash, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term to maturity. The Company’s long-term notes payable carrying value at the effective interest rate approximates fair value.
Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs to fair value measurements. The three levels of hierarchy are:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
The Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include investments, long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. The Company reviews the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the asset be recorded at its fair value. The resulting fair value measurements of the assets are considered to be Level 3 measurements.
There have been no transfers between fair value levels during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.

Level 1
Cash and cash equivalents, net accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, investments, and other current assets and liabilities represent financial instruments for which the carrying amount approximates fair value.
Level 2
The fair value of deferred consideration relates to the Tryke acquisition as discussed above in Note 4 – Acquisitions. Consideration to be paid in cash on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the closing date was valued with a discount rate, consisting of the Company’s credit spread and a risk-free rate, of 18.2%, 18.0%, and 17.8% respectively. The liabilities will accrete in value until the payment due date with changes in the value recorded through interest expense within the Company’s Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additional deferred cash consideration relates to the pending litigation as discussed above in Note 4 — Acquisitions.
Level 3
The fair value of contingent consideration is based upon the following Level 3 inputs:
| • | HMS – present value of the $2 million loan bearing an interest rate of 4.8% per annum discounted at 92.7%. |
| • | MEOT – present value of the potential cash earn-out of $2 million based upon MEOT’s achievement of certain earnings targets discounted at 4.22%. |
| • | EMMAC – present value of EMMAC’s achievement regulatory approval for recreational cannabis and meeting certain revenue targets in the U.K. market as discussed in Note 4 — Acquisitions. The following discount rates were utilized in the determination of the present value of the liabilities resulting in gain on revaluation of contingent consideration of $0.7 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2022. |
| ◦ | Regulatory approval for recreational cannabis – 1.8% 2021 and 11.6% 2022. |
| ◦ | Revenue targets in the U.K. market – 1.8% in 2021 and 11.2% in 2022. |
| • | Los Sueños – present value of Los Sueños’ achievement of enhanced tier licensing. Discount rates of 1.7% and 2.1%, for the first and second tranche of shares, respectively, were utilized in the determination of the present value of the liabilities resulting in a gain on revaluation of contingent consideration of $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. |
| • | Sapphire – present value of Sapphire’s achievement of certain revenue, script, and active patient count milestones during 2022 as discussed in Note 4 — Acquisitions. |
| • | Four20 – present value of Curaleaf’s shares to be issued utilizing a discount rate of 16.4% and 16.2% for the first and second tranche of shares to be issued, respectively as of September 30, 2022. |
Financial Risk Management
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of a potential loss to the Company if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s notes and accounts receivable. The maximum credit exposure at September 30, 2022 and 2021 is the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and notes receivable. The Company does not have significant credit risk with respect to its customers. All cash and cash equivalents are placed with major U.S. financial institutions.
The Company provides credit to its wholesale and management services agreement (“MSA”) customers in the normal course of business and has established processes to mitigate credit risk. The amounts reported in the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets are net of allowances for credit losses, estimated by the Company’s management based on prior experience and its assessment of the current economic environment. The Company reviews its trade receivable accounts regularly and reduces amounts to their expected realizable values by adjusting the allowance credit losses when management determines that the account may not be fully collectible. The Company applies ASC 310 – Receivables for the measurement of expected credit losses, which uses an expected loss allowance model for all trade receivables. The Company has not adopted standardized credit policies, but rather assesses credit on a customer-by-customer basis in an effort to minimize those risks.
Liquidity Risk
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.
In December 2021, the Company closed a private placement of Senior Secured Notes - 2026, for aggregate gross proceeds of $475 million to the Company. The notes bear interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate of 8% per annum, compounded semi-annually and payable in arrears on June 15th and December 15th of each year during the term of the notes; the first of which will be June 15, 2022. The Note Indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes - 2026 contains numerous positive and negative covenants of the Company. If the Company breaches a covenant under the Note Indenture, the trustee may, under certain circumstances, accelerate the maturity of the principal amount outstanding or realize on the collateral granted by the Company over its assets. A breach of covenant under the Note Indenture could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position.
In connection with the Bloom acquisition, the Company issued secured promissory notes to the former Bloom owners in the aggregate of $160 million, which mature over three years. The first and second set of notes each total $50 million and mature in January 2023 and 2024; each bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum and interest payments are due quarterly.
The final set of promissory notes are convertible promissory notes with a principal amount totaling $60 million, which mature in January 2025 and bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum. Interest payments are not required until maturity, when all principal and accrued interest will be due. At the option of the sellers of Bloom, the third set of promissory notes may be paid by the Company issuing SVS at maturity. All three notes may be prepaid without penalty.
In addition to the commitments outlined in Note 11 — Notes payable and Note 19 — Commitments and contingencies, the Company has the following gross remaining contractual obligations:
| | < 1 Year | | | 1 to 3 Years | | | Total | |
For the period ended September 30, 2022: | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Accounts payable | | $ | 78,739 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 78,739 | |

Accounts payable | | $ | 26,751 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 26,751 | |
Accrued expenses | | | 86,966 | | | | — | | | | 86,966 | |

| | $ | 135,040 | | | $ | 79,268 | | | $ | 214,308 | |
The Company is monitoring the impacts of COVID-19 closely, and although liquidity has not been materially affected by the COVID-19 outbreak to date, the ultimate severity of the outbreak and its potential future impact on the economic environment is uncertain. Given the current uncertainty of the future economic environment, the Company has taken additional measures in monitoring and deploying its capital to minimize the negative impact on liquidity. For more information, see Note 2 — Basis of presentation, “COVID-19 estimation uncertainty”.
Currency Risk
The operating results and financial position of the Company are reported in U.S. dollars. Some of the Company’s financial transactions have been and may be denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The results of the Company’s operations are subject to currency transaction and translation risks.
As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had no hedging agreements in place with respect to foreign exchange rates. The Company has not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible currency risks at this time.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Cash and cash equivalents bear interest at market rates. The Company’s notes receivable and financial debts have fixed rates of interest and are carried at amortized cost. The Company does not account for any fixed-rate financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value, therefore, a change in interest rates at the reporting date would not affect profit or loss.
Capital Management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure that there are adequate capital resources to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and maintain adequate levels of funding to support its ongoing operations and development such that it can continue to provide returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
The capital structure of the Company consists of items included in shareholders’ equity and debt, net of cash and cash equivalents. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the Company’s underlying assets. The Company plans to use existing funds, as well as funds from the future sale of products to fund operations and expansion activities.

Note 24 — Restatement
Select Acquisition
During the period ended December 31, 2021, management discovered an error related to purchase accounting that was identified subsequent to the measurement period for the Select acquisition. The Company purchased Select for its brand recognition in order to position the Company for its next phase of growth in the wholesale and recreational cannabis markets. Management determined that the Company’s initial identification and measurement of licenses and service agreements as the primary intangible assets acquired was not reflective of the purpose of the acquisition, and therefore updated purchase accounting to reflect the Select tradename as the primary asset acquired. The restatement resulted in an overall decrease in the value of intangible assets identified, which in turn also resulted in a decrease in the related deferred tax liability and amortization expense. The reduction in the consideration transferred allocated to intangible assets and deferred tax liability resulted in a net increase to goodwill, while the decrease in amortization expense increased pre-tax book income which resulted in an increase in tax expense (see adjustments below). As the discovery was made outside of the acquisition measurement period, in accordance with ASC 805, the Company considered this change as an error related to the allocation of purchase consideration, and retrospectively updated purchase accounting to identify, distinguish, and revalue the separately identifiable intangible assets acquired in accordance with ASC 805.
Adjustments have been retrospectively made to the comparative period for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The financial statements for the periods as of and ended between March 31, 2020 and September 30, 2021 were not adjusted and refiled at the time of discovery of the error, rather the comparative period as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 was corrected with the filing of the Annual Financial Statements for the period ending December 31, 2021 filed on March 7, 2022 and available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com. The comparative period as of and for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2021 has been corrected herein, and the three and six month periods ending March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively, were corrected with the Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements for the periods such ended filed on May 7, 2022 and August 9, 2022, respectively, and are available under the Company’s profile at www.sedar.com.

Number of Share Options & RSUs
Management determined that prior period financial statements needed to be restated to correct an error related to disclosures around the number of share options and RSUs forfeited, expired, and outstanding as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021.
Adjustments have been retrospectively made to the comparative period as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to reflect mandatory disclosures associated with the reconciliation of share options and RSUs. Refer to Note 14 — Share-based payment arrangements of these Amended and Restated Interim Financial Statements for disclosures that reflect these adjustments. The correction of this error did not result in any changes to the Company’s Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets, Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Operations, or Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Note 25 — Subsequent events
On April 10, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of Deseret Wellness, the largest cannabis retail operator in Utah, in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $20 million. The issuance of the SVS to be issued in consideration for the acquisition will only occur, and will only be priced, ten trading days following the release of the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, subject to compliance with securities laws.
On April 13, 2023, the Board of the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (the “CRC Board”), at its regularly scheduled meeting, failed to renew the Company’s cannabis adult use licenses for cultivation and processing as well as two of its three dispensaries in the State (the CRC Board’s failure to renew did not affect the Company’s medical cannabis licenses), despite the conclusion by the CRC director and staff that Curaleaf had met the conditions for license renewal and their recommendation for renewal. The Company appealed this decision on April 14, 2023 and, on April 17, 2023, after a required 48-hour waiting period, filed with the NJ Court for an injunction to maintain its licenses. The same day, prior to the review of the application for an injunction by the court, the CRC Board held an emergency meeting that resulted in the renewal of the Company’s licenses, subject to certain conditions. If the CRC Board determines that Curaleaf has failed to satisfy these conditions, the CRC Board may, subject to normal due process, issue any penalties allowable under applicable regulations, which may include fines or the revocation of the renewed licenses. For additional information, please refer to the material change report dated April 22, 2023, a copy of which is available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) under the Company’s profile.
On January 26, 2023, the Company announced its planned closure of a majority of its operations in California, Colorado and Oregon, as well as the consolidation of its cultivation and processing operations in Massachusetts to a single facility in Webster, resulting in the closure of its Amesbury facility. These planned closures represent a strategic shift in the Company’s operations that is anticipated to have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The financial effect of these closures is not readily known at the time of this filing. The planned closures of these operations did not meet the ASC 205 held for sale criteria as of the balance sheet date, accordingly these entities were not classified as held for sale or discontinued operations as of December 31, 2022.
