## Geography

Grown Rogue operates in the United States, with cultivation and sales activity centered in Oregon, Michigan, New Jersey, and Illinois. The company’s revenue is state-based rather than national, so operating licenses, local supply conditions, and state market structure are central to performance. New Jersey has been an important revenue contributor, while Oregon and Michigan provide additional production and sales scale.

- **United States** (100%) — All revenue disclosed for the reported period was earned in the U.S.

- United States is the only revenue country disclosed
- Operations span Oregon, Michigan, New Jersey, and Illinois
- New Jersey is a key growth market in the company’s portfolio
- Oregon supports indoor and outdoor cultivation in the Rogue Valley
- Illinois expansion adds another regulated state market

## Strategy

The company’s strategy is centered on premium flower and pre-rolls, with an emphasis on high-quality, low-cost production. It is also expanding its multi-state footprint through cultivation build-outs, joint ventures, and license-related transactions in regulated markets. This approach is intended to combine production control with local market access.

- **Grow premium flower and pre-roll sales** (short-term) — These products are the company’s core commercial focus and drive brand positioning.
- **Expand production capacity in regulated states** (medium-term) — Additional cultivation capacity supports volume growth and local market penetration.
- **Broaden multi-state operating footprint** (medium-term) — More state licenses and facilities reduce dependence on any single market.

- Focus on flower and pre-rolls as core product categories
- Use indoor and sungrown cultivation to balance quality and cost
- Expand state footprint through licenses, JVs, and facility control
- Build production capacity in markets with attractive local demand
- Use vertically integrated operations to control supply and distribution

## Risks

The business depends on state-by-state cannabis regulation, licensed facilities, and successful cultivation execution, so operational or regulatory setbacks can quickly affect output and sales. As a cannabis operator, it also faces industry risks such as pricing pressure, crop quality variability, compliance burdens, and financing constraints that are common in a highly regulated market. Expansion projects and lease commitments add execution risk because new capacity must be brought online and monetized efficiently.

- **Regulatory approval risk in Illinois** [high] — The company’s Illinois transaction depends on state approval before closing.
- **Cultivation and crop execution risk** [high] — Revenue depends on producing consistent flower quality and yields across facilities.
- **Cannabis market pricing pressure** [medium] — Wholesale flower and pre-roll markets can be competitive and price-sensitive.
- **Capital intensity and financing dependence** [medium] — Facility build-outs and acquisitions require ongoing funding.

- State cannabis regulation can delay or limit expansion
- Cultivation yields and product quality affect sales and margins
- Cannabis pricing pressure can reduce wholesale realization
- Facility build-outs require capital and operational execution
- Lease and license commitments create fixed obligations

## Accounting

Key accounting judgments include inventory valuation, long-lived asset impairment, fair value measurements, and the treatment of derivative and warrant liabilities. Cannabis operators also face tax complexity, including uncertain tax positions and Section 280E-related considerations, which can materially affect reported results. Lease accounting and pre-operational startup costs are important because new facilities and expansion projects can shift expenses between periods and affect comparability.

- **Inventory costing and valuation** — Finished cannabis inventory and cost of revenues
- **Long-lived asset and intangible impairment** — Property, equipment, and intangible assets
- **Fair value measurements** — Non-cash expenses and balance sheet liabilities
- **Section 280E and uncertain tax positions** — Income tax expense and deferred tax balances
- **Pre-operational startup costs** — Operating expenses and adjusted EBITDA reconciliation

- Inventory valuation affects reported cost of cannabis sold
- Long-lived asset and intangible impairment can be material
- Fair value estimates affect share-based and derivative items
- Section 280E and tax positions can change tax expense
- Lease and startup costs affect timing of operating expenses
