| Amendment Description | This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment No. 1”) to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Goodness Growth Holdings, Inc., a British Columbia corporation (referred to as “Goodness Growth,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 1, 2024 (the “Original Form 10-K”), is being filed for the purpose of including the information required by Part III of Form 10-K. This information was previously omitted from the Original Form 10-K in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K, which permits the information in the above referenced items to be incorporated in the Form 10-K by reference from our definitive proxy statement if such proxy statement is filed no later than 120 days after our fiscal year-end. We are filing this Amendment No. 1 to include Part III information in our Form 10-K because we do not expect to file a definitive proxy statement containing this information within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K. We have also revised the Exhibit Index in Part IV to include additional exhibits relating to one of our named executive officers. This Amendment No. 1 amends and restates in their entirety Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Part III of the Original Form 10-K. | | |
