"I am thrilled to report that in an environment where many cannabis companies, including some of our retail competitors, have been forced to seek bankruptcy protection, our team has been able to deliver positive net income in Q2, while also generating record-breaking free cash flow. In fact, over the past four quarters, we have generated $22.7 million in free cash flow, fueling our strong organic growth. We accomplished this despite Q2 being a seasonally slower quarter with two fewer days, as we tightly managed our G&A while also rapidly growing our store count and increasing our Canadian retail market share to 10.9%.

We remain the highest revenue-generating cannabis company reporting in Canadian dollars with Adjusted EBITDA up 52%, bricks-and-mortar revenue up 11% and consolidated revenue up 5% year-over-year, despite industry sales being down 4% during the same period. All of this has allowed us to end the quarter with a record cash position of $34.5 million. As previously communicated, we set an aggressive target to open 20 to 30 stores by the end of this calendar year. We are already the second largest cannabis retailer globally by store count, and our team is accelerating strategic and accretive M&A, focusing on opportunities of various sizes to further add meaningful size and scale to our store network," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide.

"On top of achieving net profitability and record free cash flow, our Cabana Club continues to expand and remains the largest bricks-and-mortar loyalty program in Canada with 1.43 million members. I am thrilled to see ELITE memberships again grow at the fastest rate since inception, increasing 226% versus last year and 38% sequentially, demonstrating the popularity of our innovative discount club model.

It is also worth noting that investors seem to be catching onto High Tide's superior operational performance, something that is reflected in our 12-month stock trajectory and the fact that High Tide is amongst the best-performing Canadian cannabis stocks over this time frame. Our Canadian scale and experience position us well to participate in the German commercial cannabis pilot projects once they are launched. All of this, combined with continuing regulatory reform in the U.S. and Europe, leads me to believe that our ambition to turn High Tide into a global cannabis powerhouse is within reach," added Mr. Grover.

(Expressed in thousands of Canadian Dollars)

The following is a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Loss:

Outlook

High Tide is the largest non-franchised cannabis retailer in Canada and the second largest globally by store count. The Company had previously communicated a target to add 20-30 locations in calendar 2024, which the Company remains on track to achieve. Fueled by its internal cash flow generation, High Tide has opened 10 new Canna Cabana locations since the beginning of this year, all organically. The Company anticipates further greenfield growth throughout this calendar year, which could be potentially supplemented by M&A transactions.

The Company's Cabana Club loyalty program continues to expand across the country, currently exceeding 1.43 million members, which is up 38% over the past year. ELITE, the paid membership tier, has been growing at its fastest pace since inception and has now exceeded 44,000 members with additional members being onboarded daily. ELITE members tend to shop more frequently and in larger quantities than base tier members and the ELITE program supports the Company in generating upwards of 70% gross margins. 

The Company's market share in Q2 rose to 10.9% from 9.9% year-over-year, while only representing 4.8% of the bricks-and-mortar store count in the provinces where it operates. The Company anticipates its market share to continue its upward trajectory, given its organic store pipeline, ongoing M&A discussions and competitor closures. The Company's long-term goal is to hit 15% market share in the provinces where it operates, and to reach 300 Canna Cabana locations nationwide.

The recent regulatory change in Alberta allowing private-label products presents a meaningful opportunity for the Company, particularly on the heels of the acquisition of the Queen of Bud brand. The Company intends to launch innovative high-margin cannabis and consumption accessory offerings under its Cabana Cannabis Co and Queen of Bud banners to customers in Alberta, where it has the largest store footprint.

The Company has proven its free cash flow capabilities, having generated over $22 million during the past four quarters. These funds have helped fuel organic build outs, and debt repayments as well as a record cash balance of $34.5 million at the end of Q2. The Company believes its financial profile is healthier than it has ever been. This position should be further fortified by the announced $15 million debt financing which should close in the coming weeks.

The Company continues to monitor legislative and regulatory developments in Germany, particularly those related to potential commercial sale pilot projects with an aim to be ready to enter Europe's largest market as soon as possible.
