**PART I**

**Item 1. Business.**

*Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, references in this report to "RYTHM", the "Company," "we," "us," "our," or similar references mean RYTHM, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.*

**Business Overview**

RYTHM, Inc. (formerly Agrify Corporation) (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company" or "RYTHM") delivers well-being to consumers through its portfolio of hemp-derived tetrahydrocannabinol ("hemp-derived THC") products and iconic licensed brands. The Company's portfolio of consumer-packaged goods brands includes RYTHM, incredibles, Dogwalkers, Beboe, &Shine, Doctor Solomon's, Good Green and Señorita. The RYTHM and Señorita brands offer consumers hemp-derived THC beverages and are sold at top retailers, online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. The Señorita brand mirrors well-known cocktails like a margarita – in four flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Mango Margarita, Paloma and Ranch Water. Known for its clean, fresh taste and commitment to high-quality, natural ingredients, Señorita offers a low-sugar, low-calorie alternative to alcoholic beverages and is available in fifteen U.S. states and Canada including at top retailers such as Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny's. The RYTHM branded beverage comes in two fruit-driven flavors with effect-based ingredients. Other hemp-derived products including incredibles and Beboe edible products are primarily sold online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. In addition to the sale of hemp-derived products ("Non-licensing Revenue"), the Company licenses its brands to be manufactured and distributed in exchange for a licensing fee ("Licensing Revenue").

RYTHM has also historically been a leading provider of innovative cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry. Prior to the exit of the extraction business on March 30, 2025, the Company's comprehensive extraction product line ("the Extraction Business"), which included hydrocarbon, alcohol, solventless, post-processing, and lab equipment, empowered cannabis producers to maximize the quantity and quality of extract required for premium concentrates. Additionally, prior to its sale on December 31, 2024, the Company's proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical Farming Units ("VFUs") enabled cultivators to produce high quality products for the cannabis industry.

**Recent Developments**

*Name Change*

Following our acquisition of VCP IP Holdings, LLC and the *RYTHM* brand, we changed our name from Agrify Corporation to RYTHM, Inc. effective as of September 2, 2025, and changed our ticker symbol on the Nasdaq Capital Market from AGFY to RYM effective as of the market open on that date.

*Convertible Note Issuances*

On November 5, 2024, we issued a Secured Convertible Note (the "November 2024 Note") with an original principal amount of $10.0 million to RSLGH, LLC ("RSLGH"), a subsidiary of Green Thumb Industries Inc. ("Green Thumb"), a related party. On November 3, 2025, RSLGH elected to convert the outstanding principal and interest through November 3, 2025, into pre-funded warrants subject to a 49.99% beneficial ownership limitation and any required approval of stockholders under Nasdaq listing rules. The outstanding principal and accrued interest amounts of $10 million and $175 thousand respectively, resulted in the issuance of 3,167,564 and 55,433 pre-funded warrants, respectively. Each pre-funded warrant represents the right to acquire one share of our common stock.

On May 22, 2025, we issued Secured Convertible Notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $30.0 million (the "May 2025 Notes") to RSLGH and to certain other accredited investors. The May 2025 Notes mature on November 22, 2026 and are convertible into shares of common stock or, at the holder's election, pre-funded warrants, at a conversion price of $23.53, subject to a 49.99% beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH, a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation for the other holders, and any required approval of stockholders under Nasdaq listing rules.

On August 25, 2025, we issued Secured Convertible Notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $50.0 million (the "August 2025 Notes" and, collectively with the November 2024 Note and the May 2025 Notes, the "Notes") to RSLGH and to certain other accredited investors. The August 2025 Notes will mature on February 25, 2027 and are convertible into shares of common stock or, at the holder's election, pre-funded warrants, at a conversion price of $29.475, subject to a 49.99% beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH, a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation for the other holders, and any required approval of stockholders under Nasdaq listing rules.

Each Note is a secured obligation and ranks senior to all of our indebtedness except for the other Notes. Each Note accrues interest at a 10.0% annualized rate, with interest to be paid on the first calendar day of each September and March while the Note is outstanding, which may be paid in the form of pre-funded warrants or, in the case of the August 2025 Notes and at the election of the holders of a majority of the August 2025 Notes, cash or common stock, subject to any applicable Nasdaq restrictions. The principal amount of each Note will be payable on its applicable maturity date.

The Notes impose certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon us. If an event of default under a Note occurs, the holder can elect to redeem the Note for cash equal to the then-outstanding principal amount of the Note (or such lesser principal amount accelerated by the applicable holder), plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per annum equal to 14% from the date of a default or event of default.

 

*Shared Services Agreements*

On May 20, 2025, we entered into an Amended and Restated Shared Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with Vision Management Services, LLC ("VMS"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party. Under the Services Agreement, VMS provides certain administrative, supply chain, operations management, sales and marketing, and technical services to us and our subsidiaries. As consideration for those services, we pay VMS service fees equal to (i) 125% of the costs incurred by VMS in connection with any services provided by non-dedicated personnel, including the applicable portion of salary, bonus, equity compensation cost, health care and other benefits, and (ii) 100% of such costs incurred by VMS in connection with services provided by dedicated personnel and any third-party costs incurred in connection with the services. The service fees are payable in cash or, upon mutual agreement of us and VMS and to the extent permitted under applicable Nasdaq listing rules, in common stock or in pre-funded warrants, with the value per share of common stock or pre-funded warrant being equal to $26.68. The maximum cost for services provided by non-dedicated personnel during the one-year term of the Services Agreement may not exceed $3.0 million unless the parties otherwise agree in writing. The Services Agreement is for a term of one year, is terminable by either party on 90 days' notice for any or no reason, and will automatically renew for successive one-year terms unless terminated by either party at least thirty days prior to the end of the applicable term.

On March 21, 2025, we entered into a Shared Services Agreement (the "CFO Services Agreement") with VMS, pursuant to which Brad Asher provides his services as Chief Financial Officer. As consideration for those services, we pay VMS a monthly fee based on its direct costs in providing such services, with a maximum of $72,552 per month. The CFO Services Agreement has a term of one year, is terminable by either party on 90 days' notice for any or no reason, and will automatically renew for successive one year terms unless terminated by either party at least thirty days prior to the end of the applicable term. As a result of the services provided under the Services Agreement and the CFO Services Agreement, we do not have any direct employees other than our Interim Chief Executive Officer.

Licensing Revenue

On May 20, 2025, we acquired from VCP IP Holdings, LLC ("VCP") an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party, 100% of the equity interests of MC Brands, LLC pursuant to which we obtained rights relating to MC Brands, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary Core Growth LLC (together referred to as "MC Brands") the assets of which consist primarily of intellectual property rights to the incredibles brand. Concurrent with the transaction, we entered into a license agreement with GTI Core, LLC, ("GTI Core"), an indirect subsidiary of Green Thumb, pursuant to which GTI Core was granted the right to use the incredibles brand in connection with its existing businesses. Consideration payable by GTI Core under the license agreement consists of a monthly license fee payable in cash. We began recognizing licensing revenue under this agreement in May 2025.

On August 27, 2025, we acquired from VCP23, LLC an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, 100% of the equity interests of VCP IP Holdings, LLC pursuant to which we obtained rights relating to VCP IP Holdings, LLC, the assets of which consist primarily of intellectual property rights to the RYTHM, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon's, & Shine, and Good Green brands (these rights, together with the incredibles brand rights, referred to as "Brand Rights"). Concurrent with the transaction, we entered into a license agreement with GTI Core pursuant to which GTI Core was granted the right to use the Brand Rights in connection with its existing businesses. Consideration payable by GTI Core under the license agreement consists of a monthly license fee payable in cash. We began recognizing licensing revenue under this agreement in November 2025. The MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements also granted Green Thumb or its affiliates certain repurchase rights, which may be triggered by events outside of the control of Green Thumb and the Company.

*Hemp-Derived Products*

We acquired the Señorita brand of hemp-derived THC beverages in December 2024. Señorita was designed and formulated by world-class winemakers Charles Bieler and Joel Gott. Recognizing a growing generational demand for adult beverage alternatives, Mr. Bieler and Mr. Gott gave the classic margarita a modern twist—replacing alcohol with hemp-derived THC to create a delightful adult beverage alternative. Through the use of all-natural, premium ingredients like organic Mexican agave, fresh lime juice and sweet, tangy mango, Señorita quickly gained acclaim, taking home the top spot in The High Times Cannabis Cup just one year after inception. Mr. Gott and Mr. Bieler continue to collaborate on the brand with Mr. Kovler and the RYTHM team.

Señorita currently offers four award-winning flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Paloma, Mango Margarita, and Ranch Water. Señorita's hemp-derived beverages are currently available at top retailers including Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny's in fifteen U.S. states and Canada. Products are also available for direct-to-consumer purchase where permissible under state law at senoritadrinks.com.

The Company's portfolio of consumer-packaged goods brands includes RYTHM, incredibles, Dogwalkers, Beboe, &Shine, Doctor Solomon's, Good Green and Señorita. The RYTHM and Señorita brands offer consumers hemp-derived THC beverages and are sold at top retailers, online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. The Señorita brand mirrors well-known cocktails like a margarita in four flavors and the RYTHM branded beverage comes in two fruit-driven flavors with effect-based ingredients. Other hemp-derived products including incredibles and Beboe edible products are primarily sold online and through direct-to-retail partnerships.

*Co-Manufacturing Arrangements*

Our finished goods are manufactured by various third-party co-manufacturers situated throughout the United States and Canada, under separate arrangements with each party. Our co-manufacturing arrangements vary in terms and, from time to time, we may enter into manufacturing contracts with agreed upon minimum quantities to ensure continuity of supply of certain products in certain territories. We continue to actively seek alternative and/or additional co-manufacturing facilities with adequate capacity and capability for the production of our various products to minimize transportation costs as well as mitigate the risk of disruption in production.

Our ability to estimate demand for our products is imprecise, particularly with new products, and may be less precise during periods of rapid growth or regulatory uncertainty which is currently common in our industry. If we materially underestimate demand for our products and/or are unable to secure sufficient ingredients or raw materials and/or procure adequate co-manufacturing arrangements and/or obtain adequate or timely shipment of our products, we might not be able to satisfy demand on a short-term basis. Conversely, if demand for our products declines or does not materialize as expected, including due to regulatory uncertainty or changes in applicable laws or regulations, we may accumulate excess inventory, which could lead to inventory obsolescence, write-downs, or reduced margins.

*Distribution Agreements*

During 2025 we continued to expand distribution of our hemp-derived products in our domestic markets. We have entered into agreements with various distributors providing for the distribution of certain of our hemp-derived products, subject to certain terms and conditions, which may vary depending on the form of the agreement. Such agreements remain in effect for their then-current term as long as our products are being distributed, but are subject to specified termination rights held by each party. Additionally, we are entitled to terminate certain distribution agreements at any time without cause upon payment of a termination fee, which may be material depending on the agreement.

**Discontinued Operations**

*Cultivation Solutions*

Prior to its sale on December 31, 2024, we sold proprietary cultivation solutions to independent licensed cultivators as part of our Cultivation Business. The two primary products we sold were the VFUs and Agrify Insights™ software. The proprietary VFU technology offered a modular, compartmentalized micro-climate growing system for indoor vertical farming. The VFU system was designed for craft farmers, single-state operators, and multi-state operators who were looking to consistently produce higher-quality crops at scale. The VFUs were designed to line up horizontally in rows, and could be stacked vertically up to three units tall. The VFUs were designed to work in conjunction with the Agrify Insights™ software. Each VFU sold included a license for Agrify Insights™ and a monthly Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") subscription fee was charged per VFU. The VFU could not operate successfully without Agrify Insights™. Agrify Insights™ license agreements were generally for a multi-year term, with an annual auto-renewal.

*Extraction Solutions*

Prior to its discontinuation on March 30, 2025, our extraction equipment and business solutions that were a part of our Extraction Business could be used within indoor processing facilities by fully licensed cannabis and hemp cultivators and processors or in some cases, by individual processors for individual use in compliance with applicable law. We sold our proprietary extraction solutions to independent, licensed cultivators and processing labs. We had strategically acquired four brands in the extraction space in late 2021 and early 2022: Precision Extraction, PurePressure, Lab Society, and Cascade Sciences. These brands encompassed hydrocarbon, alcohol, and solventless extraction and distillation and post-processing solutions. Our extraction brands provided equipment and solutions for extraction, post-processing, and testing for the cannabis and hemp industries.

**Regulatory Landscape Overview**

The regulatory landscape for products infused with hemp-derived delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol and other cannabinoids with intoxicating effects (collectively "hemp-derived THC") is a source of material risk for the Company. While the 2018 Farm Bill (defined below) both defined and legalized hemp under federal law, the subsequent use of hemp to make THC consumer products was reportedly not anticipated by legislators. Those products are similar in composition to certain state-legal and federally illegal cannabis consumer products, but are not controlled substances and thus can be shipped via interstate commerce. Their legal status at the federal level also means that they generally do not fall under the same state regulatory schemes or have the same heavy tax burdens that state legal cannabis products do. As the industry expanded, lawmakers at the state level have begun to regulate such products, including with age limits and manufacturing standards; however, some states have instead passed laws restricting or prohibiting hemp-derived THC products due to concerns raised by federal, state, and local lawmakers about minors' access to some of these products, inadequate testing, and other public health concerns.

Passed on November 12, 2025, the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act of 2026 (H.R. 5371) (the "2026 Appropriations Act") includes a provision (section 781) to amend the definition of hemp in the Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018 (the "2018 Farm Bill") to effectively prohibit the currently commercialized hemp-derived THC products, including the Company's products, although the change does not become effective for 365 days from the date of enactment. Efforts are underway to repeal, replace, or delay this amendment, but whether any change will occur is uncertain. If this provision of the 2026 Appropriations Act is not repealed, replaced or delayed by its effective date, we will not be able to sell our current line of hemp-derived THC products. In addition, this would meet one of the eligibility conditions that would permit the repurchase right to become exercisable under the MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements. However, satisfaction of such conditions would not obligate Green Thumb or its affiliates to exercise the repurchase option, which remains within their discretion.

On December 18, 2025, President Trump issued an Executive Order directing that cannabis be rescheduled from Schedule I to Schedule III (which we refer to as "rescheduling"). The Order directs the Attorney General to "take all necessary steps to complete the rulemaking process related to rescheduling marijuana to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act in the most expeditious manner." A rescheduling may have far reaching implications that are not yet fully understood, including potentially for hemp and hemp products. The Executive Order also discussed a newly proposed pilot program where CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services), through CMMI (Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation), will be able to cover the costs for certain cannabinoid based hemp therapies for seniors. Additional details for this program and its requirements are still pending, and it is uncertain whether the Company would be able to participate or whether the pilot program will drive additional competition from the pharmaceutical or other industries. Such other companies may have a longer operating history, a higher capitalization, additional financial resources, more manufacturing and marketing experience, greater access to public equity and debt markets and more experienced management than the Company. In addition to the pilot program, the Executive Order directs White House staff to work with Congress to "update the statutory definition" of hemp to allow Americans to access cannabidiol ("CBD") products while permitting Congress to "restrict the sale of products posing serious health risks," and to consult with relevant executive branch departments to "develop a regulatory framework for hemp-derived cannabinoid products, including development of guidance on an upper limit on milligrams of THC per serving with considerations on per container limits and CBD to THC ratio requirements." It is unclear how this will be achieved, and whether Congress—which just revised the definition of hemp in the 2026 Appropriations Act—will agree to further changes. All of this regulatory volatility creates significant uncertainty for our business of selling hemp-derived THC products.

**Competitive Landscape Overview**

The U.S. cannabis and cannabis-related industries are, and are expected to continue to be, competitive. A number of other companies engage in, and may in the future engage in, cannabis-related businesses, operate businesses in competition with us and purchase businesses and assets or make investments that we will also seek to purchase or make. We face and expect to continue to face competition from state-licensed medical and adult-use dispensaries.

Large chain stores, manufacturers, retailers, beverage and other consumer products companies that also recognize the potential for financial success through acquisitions and investment in the hemp-derived THC beverage industry could strategically acquire competitors or invest in creating their own brands. In doing so, these larger competitors could produce and sell competing products at a lower price and establish a larger brand presence. We may not have the personnel, products, marketing and distribution capabilities, and/or financial resources to compete effectively against such larger competitors.

We also face competition from the illicit market and illegal dispensaries and cultivation operations that are unlicensed, not regulated and that are selling cannabis or hemp-derived THC products. Any inability or unwillingness of law enforcement authorities to enforce existing laws prohibiting the unlicensed production and sale of cannabis or hemp-derived THC products could result in increased competition for us.

**Intellectual Property**

We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secrets, including federal, state and common law rights in the U.S. and other countries, nondisclosure agreements, and other measures to protect our intellectual property. We require our employees, consultants, and advisors to execute confidentiality agreements and to agree to disclose and assign to us all inventions conceived under their respective employment, consultant, or advisor agreement, using our property, or which relate to our business. Despite any measures taken to protect our intellectual property, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Our business, including the revenue we recognize through licensing our brands, is affected by our ability to protect against misappropriation and infringement of our intellectual property, including our trademarks, service marks, patents, domain names, copyrights, brand rights, Prepaid License Rights and other proprietary rights.

**Human Capital Resources**

As of March 3, 2026, our human capital resources are predominantly provided pursuant to shared services agreements with Green Thumb, which are largely focused on sales and marketing functions. As of that date, we had one employee and approximately 50 dedicated consultants.

**Environmental Regulations**

We are not aware of any environmental laws that have been enacted, nor are we aware of any such laws being contemplated for the future, that have or would be expected to have a material impact on our business.

**Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company**

Because the market value of our voting and non-voting common stock held by non-affiliates was less than $700 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year prior to such date, we qualify as a "smaller reporting company" as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) the market value of our shares held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year prior to the determination date. As a smaller reporting company, we may provide less public disclosure than larger public companies, including the inclusion of only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations disclosure. While we are a smaller reporting company, we are also not required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as long as we are considered a non-accelerated filer or our annual revenues are less than $100 million. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of any choice we make to reduce disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the market price for our common stock may be more volatile.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

*Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the section titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our consolidated financial statements and related notes, before making a decision to invest in our Common Stock. The risks and uncertainties described below may not be the only ones we face. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the market price of our Common Stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.*

**Risks Relating to our Industry**

***The 2018 Farm Bill, which federally legalized hemp and hemp products, was amended in a way that would severely restrict or prohibit the Company's hemp-derived THC products.***

The 2018 Farm Bill, which is the legal basis for the Company's entry into the hemp-derived THC product market, legally defined hemp as Cannabis Sativa L. containing less than 0.3% delta-9-THC on a dry weight basis, effectively legalizing hemp in the United States. The 2026 Appropriations Act includes a provision (section 781) to amend the definition of hemp in the 2018 Farm Bill to effectively prohibit currently commercialized hemp-derived THC products, including the Company's products, although the change does not become effective until November 12, 2026. Efforts are underway to repeal, replace, or delay this amendment, but whether any change will occur is uncertain. This creates significant uncertainty for our business of selling hemp-derived THC products. It is unclear, for example, if states that have expressly allowed the commercialization of such products will continue to do so in spite of the changes to federal law. If the 365-day grace period expires without a legislative change, it will have a material adverse effect on the Company, including our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In that event, the market price of the Company's common stock could decline.

***States are passing their own laws regulating, restricting, or prohibiting hemp-derived THC products, creating a difficult regulatory patchwork within which to operate.***

State and local authorities have been active over the last few years, implementing their own laws regulating the cultivation, manufacturing, testing, marketing, and sale of both intoxicating and non-intoxicating hemp products. Some states ban these products altogether. Other state laws permit hemp-derived THC products but impose new regulatory frameworks containing licensing and labeling requirements, age gates, amount and potency restrictions, allowable types of products, and restrictions on where the products may be sold. The varied state regulatory framework for hemp products poses risks to manufacturing, marketing, selling, and shipping hemp-derived THC products around the country, whether wholesale or direct to consumers via online or brick-and-mortar retail locations. Additionally, hemp legislation is pending at the state level around the country, creating additional risk to the sale and transport of products already produced under existing laws. Unforeseen regulatory obstacles or compliance costs related to state laws may hinder the Company's ability to successfully compete in some markets for such products. Further, states in which the Company currently sells its hemp-derived THC products could decide in the future to ban these products altogether. If these regulatory changes occur, the revenue streams we expect to receive from our businesses and assets would be at risk and, as a result, such changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***Hemp-derived THC products are not permitted under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.***

The Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has taken the position that ingestible products over which it has jurisdiction, including foods, beverages, and dietary supplements, that contain cannabinoids such as THC, including hemp-derived THC, are not permitted under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act ("FDCA"). The FDA has not evaluated THC as a food ingredient, and therefore does not consider it to be GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) for use in foods, including beverages. The FDA has also found that because THC is in certain drugs approved by the FDA, it is precluded from use in foods/beverages or dietary supplements. The FDA has articulated its intention to focus enforcement on products claiming to prevent, diagnose, mitigate, treat, or cure diseases, and/or manufacturers who target products toward children. The FDA has issued warnings about products that resemble candy or other items appealing to children, emphasizing that such products could pose a risk of unintentional ingestion and potential harm due to the presence of cannabinoids. Thus far, such enforcement has been limited to sending warning letters to a relatively small number of companies. The FDA may decide in the future to increase enforcement activities, regardless of whether a company makes health claims related to its products or markets to children, which could impact the Company's offering of hemp-derived THC beverages and materially impact operations and revenue.

***The FDA could issue new regulations that prohibit or strictly limit the sale of hemp-derived THC products.***

***Other federal agencies may take enforcement actions against companies selling hemp-derived THC products.***

The Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") and FDA frequently collaborate on enforcement where their jurisdictions overlap, particularly in regulating the advertising, labeling, and promotion of food, cosmetics, medical devices, and OTC (over-the-counter) drugs. In the CBD market, the FTC has joined the FDA in issuing warning letters to companies that lacked competent and reliable scientific evidence supporting their advertisements, thereby violating the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 41 et seq. The FTC has also independently issued warning letters to CBD companies for making exaggerated or misleading claims without sufficient scientific backing. While FTC enforcement actions related to CBD were historically limited to warnings, in December 2020, the agency initiated its first formal enforcement action against six CBD companies for allegedly making unsupported health claims, leading to settlement agreements that required those companies to cease such claims and pay monetary judgments. In 2023 and 2024, the FTC sent cease and desist letters to companies marketing hemp-derived THC products that it determined appealed to children. Although the Company does not intend to make any unsubstantiated claims regarding its products, the FTC may disagree with our assessment of our claims. The regulatory landscape and potential for future FTC enforcement actions could pose an ongoing risk to the Company's offering of hemp-derived THC products, especially if the Company's products are targeted by the FTC, or the FTC and FDA together, in the future for any reason.

***Hemp-derived THC products are federally illegal if they exceed 0.3% delta-9-THC on a dry weight basis.***

Hemp-derived THC products which exceed a delta-9-THC concentration of 0.3% on a dry weight basis are federally illegal under the Controlled Substances Act (the "CSA").

Any failure by the Company or our partners to keep the delta-9-THC in our hemp-derived THC products below 0.3% on a dry weight basis, either in the manufacturing process or in the final product, could subject us to action by regulatory authorities and/or to lawsuits by consumers. Certain hemp-derived THC products may, over time, gradually increase their delta-9-THC or total THC concentration, and this may ultimately cause such products to exceed the applicable concentration level, making such products illegal in certain jurisdictions. In addition, the approval of medical and recreational marijuana by many states has created a situation in which it may be difficult or impossible for regulators and courts to determine whether the delta-9-THC levels reflected in consumers' blood tests are the result of hemp-derived THC products or marijuana products. This may result in regulatory actions or lawsuits. If any of these situations occur, we may be subject to regulatory action or lawsuits that could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

***The Company is subject to regulations that could impact its ability to sell its product internationally.***

The Company currently sells certain of its products in Canada and may conduct sales in other international markets in the future. Doing so would subject the Company to the statutes, regulations, and international treaties of the countries where it operates or engages in trade. Failure to adhere to existing or evolving laws in any jurisdiction could materially impact the Company's business. There is also a risk that authorities in these jurisdictions may determine that the Company was or is not in compliance with their laws. If its past or present activities are found to violate such laws, the Company could face enforcement actions, including civil or criminal penalties, fines, damages, operational restrictions or restructuring, asset seizures, and the denial of regulatory approvals.

***Third parties with whom we do business may perceive themselves as being exposed to reputational, and even legal, risk because of their relationship with us due to our hemp- and limited cannabis-related licensing activities and may, as a result, refuse to do business with us.***

The third parties with whom we do business may perceive that they are exposed to reputational, or possibly even legal, risk because of our hemp- or limited cannabis-related business activities. Any third-party service provider or customer could suspend or withdraw its business if it perceives that the potential risks exceed the potential benefits of doing business with us. Specifically, while we have banking relationships and believe that the services we rely on can be procured from other institutions, we may, in the future, have difficulty maintaining existing or securing new bank accounts or clearing services. Our failure to establish or maintain business relationships could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 ****

***We face competition from the illicit market as well as larger competitors and licensed medical and adult-use cannabis dispensaries.***

The U.S. cannabis and hemp industries are, and are expected to continue to be, competitive. A number of other companies engage in, and may in the future engage in, cannabis or hemp-related businesses, operate businesses in competition with us, and purchase businesses and assets or make investments that we will also seek to purchase or make. We face and expect to continue to face competition from state-licensed medical and adult-use dispensaries as well as the illicit market. Additionally, if the Attorney General reschedules cannabis to Schedule III, competition from state-licensed cannabis companies could intensify as the industry becomes more normalized.

Large chain stores, manufacturers, retailers, and beverage and other consumer products companies that also recognize the potential for financial success through acquisitions and investment in the hemp-derived THC industry could strategically acquire competitors or invest in creating their own brands. In doing so, these larger competitors could produce and sell competing products at a lower price and establish a larger brand presence than we have. We may lack the personnel, products, marketing, and distribution capabilities, and/or financial resources to compete effectively against such larger competitors.

We also face competition from the illicit market and illegal dispensaries and cultivation operations that are unlicensed, not regulated and that are selling cannabis or hemp-derived products. Any inability or unwillingness of law enforcement authorities to enforce existing laws prohibiting the unlicensed production and sale of cannabis or hemp-derived products could result in increased competition for us. Additionally, illicit products may be unsafe, and negative press caused by such products could impact the reputation of our products with consumers who may not distinguish between responsible suppliers like the Company and illicit operators. Any or all these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***Inconsistent public opinion and perception of the cannabis and hemp industries may hinder market growth and state regulation, which would adversely impact our growth plans and current operations and result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.***

Public opinion and support for cannabis and hemp-derived THC products has traditionally been inconsistent and varies from state to state. While public opinion and support has historically been increasing in the U.S. for legalizing cannabis and for continued access to hemp-derived THC products, opposition to legalization remains, and the support could diminish. Inconsistent public opinion and perception of cannabis and hemp hinder growth of the hemp industry, which could have a material adverse effect on our business plans, financial condition, and results of operations.

Consumer perception of our products may be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention, and other publicity regarding the consumption of cannabis and hemp-derived THC products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research and findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention, or other research findings or publicity will be favorable to the cannabis or hemp markets or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention, or other publicity that is perceived as less favorable than, or questions earlier research reports, findings, or publicity, could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products. Our dependence upon consumer perceptions means that such adverse reports, whether or not accurate or with merit, could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. Further, adverse publicity reports or other media attention regarding the safety, efficacy, and quality of hemp-derived THC products in general, or our products specifically, or associating the consumption of cannabis or hemp-derived THC products with illness or other negative effects or events, could have a material adverse effect. A failure or alleged failure of quality control processes and procedures could result in negative consumer perception of our products or legal claims against us. Adverse publicity reports or other media attention could arise even if the adverse effects associated with such products resulted from consumers' failure to consume such products appropriately or as directed.

***Hemp-derived THC products may be shown to have negative health and/or safety impacts upon consumers.***

The health and safety impacts of hemp-derived THC products have not yet been established via traditional scientific and/or clinical studies. The FDA appears to believe that certain CBD products may have significant adverse health impacts upon human beings, especially in regard to potential liver toxicity or liver damage. If the FDA, scientific research and/or clinical studies ultimately demonstrate negative health and/or safety impacts of cannabis or hemp-derived THC products on consumers, our business and the trading price of our Common Stock could be materially adversely affected.

***We face risks due to industry immaturity or limited comparable, competitive, or established industry best practices.***

Because the hemp-derived THC industry is new, there are relatively few operators in the industry whose business models we can follow or build upon. Similarly, there is no or limited information about comparable companies available for potential investors to review in making a decision about whether to invest in us.

Shareholders and investors should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies, like us, that are in their early stages. For example, unanticipated expenses and problems or technical difficulties may occur, which may result in material delays in the operation of our business. We may fail to successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating strategies. If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations and could impair the value of our Common Stock to the extent that investors may lose their entire investment.

***The cannabis and hemp industries could face strong opposition from other industries.***

We believe that established businesses in other industries may perceive strong economic interests in opposing the development of the cannabis and hemp industries. Cannabis and hemp may be seen by companies in other industries as an attractive alternative to their products, such as alcohol, and as an alternative to various commercial pharmaceuticals. Many industries that could view the emerging cannabis and hemp industries as economic threats are well established, with vast economic and federal and state lobbying resources. It is reported that companies within these industries may have played a role in the recent federal legislation to reverse the 2018 Farm Bill's legalization of certain hemp products, and it is possible these industries play similar roles in anti-cannabis efforts. Any inroads these companies make in halting or impeding legislative initiatives that would be beneficial to the cannabis and hemp industries could have a detrimental impact on some of our customers and, in turn, on our operations.

***Our business depends in part on our customers obtaining and/or maintaining appropriate licensing.***

Our business is partly dependent on certain of our customers obtaining various licenses from various municipalities and state licensing agencies. There can be no assurance that any or all licenses necessary for our customers to operate their businesses will be obtained, retained, or renewed. If a licensing body were to determine that a customer of ours had violated applicable rules and regulations, there is a risk the license granted to that customer could be revoked, which could adversely affect our revenue streams from such clients. There can be no assurance that our existing customers will be able to retain their licenses going forward, or that the Company would be able to acquire new customers to sell its products in those markets.

***We face risks related to our insurance coverage and uninsurable risks.***

Our business is subject to a number of risks and hazards generally, including adverse environmental conditions, accidents, labor disputes, and changes in the regulatory environment. Such occurrences could result in damage to assets, personal injury or death, environmental damage, delays in operations, monetary losses, and possible legal liability.

Although we intend to continue to maintain insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as we consider to be reasonable, our insurance will not cover all the potential risks associated with our operations. We may also be unable to maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums, particularly given changes to federal law under the 2026 Appropriations Act. Insurance coverage may cease to be available or may not be adequate to cover any resulting liability. Moreover, insurance against certain hazards encountered in our operations may not be generally available on acceptable terms. We might also become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards which we may not be insured against or which we may elect not to insure against because of premium costs or other reasons. Losses from these events may cause us to incur significant costs that could have a material adverse effect upon our financial performance and results of operations.

***We participate in an evolving and volatile industry.***

The hemp industry is still new, and many aspects of the industry's development and evolution cannot be accurately predicted. While we have attempted to identify many risks specific to the hemp industry, you should carefully consider that there are other risks that cannot be foreseen or are not described in this report, which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial performance. We expect that the hemp and cannabis markets and our business will continue to evolve in ways that are difficult to predict. Our long-term success may depend on our ability to successfully adjust our strategy to meet the changing market dynamics. If we are unable to successfully adapt to changes in the hemp and cannabis industries, our operations could be adversely affected.

***Banking regulations could limit access to banking services.***

Since the use of cannabis is illegal under federal law, and hemp-derived THC may become illegal under the 2026 Appropriations Act, there may be a compelling argument that banks cannot lawfully accept or deposit funds from businesses involved with cannabis, or, after November 12, 2026, hemp-derived THC. Consequently, businesses involved in the cannabis industry often have, and the hemp industry may have, trouble finding a bank willing to accept their business. The inability to open bank accounts may make it difficult for some of our customers or licensees to operate and their reliance on cash can result in a heightened risk of theft, which could harm their businesses and, in turn, harm our business. Although the proposal of the Secure and Fair Enforcement Regulation Banking Act, also referred to as the SAFER Banking Act, would allow banks to work with cannabis businesses and prevent federal banking regulators from intervening or punishing those banks, the legislation still requires the approval of the U.S. House and Senate. There can be no assurance that the SAFER Banking Act or any similar legislation will become law in the U.S.

**Risks Related to Our Business**

***We have a relatively short operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects***.

We have a relatively limited operating history, which may make it difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects. Although we were formed in June 2016, we have since discontinued our cultivation and extraction operations and have recently entered new lines of business, including the development and commercialization of hemp-derived THC products and the licensing of consumer packaged goods brands. These newer business lines have a limited operating history, which increases the uncertainty associated with assessing our performance and future results. We have encountered, and will continue to encounter, risks and difficulties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries, including those related to:

● market acceptance of our current and future products and services;

● changing regulatory environments and costs associated with compliance, particularly as related to our operations in the cannabis- and hemp-related sectors;

● our ability to compete with other companies offering similar products and services;

● our ability to effectively market our products and services and attract new customers;

● the amount and timing of operating expenses, particularly sales and marketing expenses, related to the maintenance and expansion of our business, operations, and infrastructure;

● our ability to control costs, including operating expenses;

● our ability to manage organic growth and growth fueled by acquisitions;

● public perception and acceptance of cannabis- and hemp-related products and services generally; and

● general economic conditions and events.

If we do not manage these risks successfully, our business and financial performance will be adversely affected.

***We may require additional financing to achieve our goals, and a failure to obtain this necessary capital when needed on acceptable terms, or at all, may force us to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our product manufacturing and development, and other operations.***

As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $32.2 million of cash and cash equivalents. Our operating plan may change because of factors currently unknown to us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. Even if we are able to substantially increase revenue and reduce operational expenditures, we may need to raise additional capital, either through borrowings, private offerings, public offerings, or some type of business combination, such as a merger or buyout, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in such pursuits. Accordingly, if we are unable to generate adequate cash from operations, and if we are unable to find sources of funding, it may be necessary for us to sell one or more lines of business or all or a portion of our assets, enter into a business combination, or reduce or eliminate operations. These possibilities, to the extent available, may be on terms that result in significant dilution to our shareholders or that result in our investors losing all of their investment in our company.

If we are able to raise additional capital, we do not know what the terms of any such capital raising would be. In addition, any future sale of our equity securities would dilute the ownership and control of investors' shares and could be at prices substantially below prices at which our shares currently trade. Our inability to raise capital could require us to significantly curtail or terminate our operations. We may seek to increase our cash reserves through the sale of additional equity or debt securities. The sale of convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in additional and potentially substantial dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations and liquidity, and ability to pay dividends. In addition, our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure to raise additional funds on favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

***We face exposure to fraudulent or illegal activity, and our reputation may be negatively impacted by improper conduct by our business partners, employees or agents.***

We face exposure to the risk that employees, independent contractors, or consultants may engage in fraudulent or other illegal activities. Misconduct by these parties could be intentional, reckless and/or negligent conduct. There may be disclosure of unauthorized activities that violate government regulations, manufacturing standards, health care laws, abuse laws, and other financial reporting laws. Further, it may not always be possible for us to identify and deter misconduct by our employees and other third parties, and the precautions taken by us to detect and prevent these activities may not always be effective. As a result, we could face potential penalties and litigation.

Furthermore, we cannot provide assurance that our internal controls and compliance systems will protect us from acts committed by our employees, agents, or contracted third parties in violation of U.S. federal or state or local laws. Any misconduct or even allegations could damage our reputation and subject us to civil or criminal investigations and shareholder lawsuits, could lead to substantial civil and criminal monetary and non-monetary penalties or damages, and could cause us to incur significant legal and investigatory fees.

***We face risks associated with strategic acquisitions.***

Since our inception, we have strategically acquired several businesses, and we may continue to make strategic acquisitions, some of which may be material. These acquisitions may involve a number of financial, accounting, managerial, operational, legal, compliance, and other risks and challenges, including the following, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations:

● any acquired business could under-perform relative to our expectations and the price that we paid for it, or not perform in accordance with its anticipated timetable;

● we may incur or assume significant debt in connection with our acquisitions;

● acquisitions could cause our results of operations to differ from our own or the investment community's expectations in any given period, or over the long term; and

● acquisitions could create demands on our management that they may be unable to effectively address, or for which we may incur additional costs

Additionally, following any business acquisition, we could experience difficulty in integrating personnel, operations, financial and other systems, and in retaining key employees and customers.

We may record goodwill, intangible assets or other assets on our consolidated balance sheet in connection with our acquisitions. If we are not able to realize the value of these assets, we may be required to incur charges relating to the impairment of these assets, which could materially impact our results of operations.

***There can be no assurance that our current and future strategic alliances or expansions of scope of existing relationships will have a beneficial impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.***

We currently have, and may in the future enter into, additional strategic alliances with third parties that we believe will complement or augment our existing business. In particular, we currently have shared services agreements with Green Thumb for significant legal, accounting and operational support, including sales and marketing support. Our ability to complete strategic alliances is dependent upon, and may be limited by, the availability of suitable candidates and capital. In addition, strategic alliances could present unforeseen integration obstacles or costs, may not enhance our business and may involve risks that could adversely affect us, including significant amounts of management time that may be diverted from operations in order to pursue and complete such transactions or maintain such strategic alliances. Future strategic alliances could result in the incurrence of additional debt, costs and contingent liabilities, and there can be no assurance that future strategic alliances will achieve, or that our existing strategic alliances will continue to achieve, the expected benefits to our business or that we will be able to consummate future strategic alliances on satisfactory terms, if at all. Termination of any strategic alliances, including our shared services agreement with Green Thumb, could significantly disrupt our business. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***Past and potential future divestitures or other transactions could adversely affect our costs, revenues, profitability and financial position.***

In order to position our business to take advantage of particular future growth opportunities and/or consolidate our more capable businesses, we have in the past and may in the future pursue a strategy of focusing on one or more specialized facets of our products and services. These actions may require that we abandon or divest certain assets or businesses that no longer fit within our evolving strategic direction, as we did with the sale of our cultivation business and exit of our extraction business. Abandoning or divesting certain assets or businesses may entail engaging in discussions, evaluating opportunities and entering into agreements, potentially resulting in transactions involving significant risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We may not be able to find potential buyers on favorable terms, we may experience disruption to our business and/or we may divert management attention from other business concerns, lose key employees and possibly retain certain liabilities related to these potential transactions.

***We have substantial debt and other financial obligations, and we may incur even more debt. Any failure to meet our debt and other financial obligations or maintain compliance with related covenants could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.***

From November 2024 through August 2025, we issued multiple Notes of which $80.0 million in principal is outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The Notes, which rank on parity, are senior secured obligations. The Notes impose certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon us, including relating to ranking and reservation of shares.

If an event of default under the Notes occurs and is not waived, the holder can elect to accelerate all or a portion of the then-outstanding principal amount of the applicable Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per annum equal to 14% from the date of a default or event of default. This immediate payment may negatively impact our financial condition. In addition, any failure to make scheduled payments of interest and principal on our outstanding indebtedness would likely harm our ability to incur additional indebtedness on acceptable terms. Our cash flow and capital resources may be insufficient to pay interest and principal on our debt in the future. If that should occur, our capital raising or debt restructuring measures may be unsuccessful or inadequate to meet our scheduled debt service obligations, which could cause us to default on our obligations and further impair our liquidity.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on our debt and other financial obligations depends on our financial and operating performance. Our financial and operating performance will continue to be subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Failure within any applicable grace or cure periods to make such payments, or comply with any covenant, would create a default under the Notes. Our cash flow and existing capital resources may be insufficient to repay our debt at maturity, in which case we would have to extend such maturity date, or otherwise repay, refinance, and/or restructure the obligations under the Notes, including with proceeds from the sale of assets, and additional equity or debt capital. If we are unsuccessful in obtaining such extension, or entering into such repayment, refinance, or restructure prior to maturity, or any other default existed under the Notes, the holder could accelerate the indebtedness under the Notes, foreclose against its collateral, or seek other remedies, which would jeopardize our ability to continue our current operations and raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

***We are dependent on key inputs and suppliers; and fluctuations in the cost or availability of materials we use in our products and supply chain could negatively affect our results.***

Our business is dependent on a number of key inputs and their related costs, including raw materials, parts and supplies. Any significant interruption or negative change in the availability or economics of the supply chain for key inputs could materially impact our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. Some of these inputs may only be available from a single supplier or a limited group of suppliers, or be sourced abroad. If a limited source supplier was to go out of business, we might be unable to find a replacement for such source in a timely manner, or at all. If a limited source supplier were to be acquired by a competitor, that competitor may elect not to sell to us in the future. Manufacturing delays or unexpected transportation delays, particularly from materials we source abroad, can also cause us to incur significantly increased costs. Any of these fluctuations may increase our cost of products and have an adverse effect on our profit margins, results of operations and financial condition. Any inability to secure required supplies and services, or to do so on appropriate terms, could have a materially adverse impact on our business, prospects, revenue, results of operations and financial condition.

***Our sales are difficult to forecast.***

Market data for the industries in which we operate is limited and unreliable. We must rely largely on our own market research to forecast sales, as detailed forecasts are not generally obtainable from other sources. Additionally, any market research and our projections of estimated total retail sales, demographics, demand and similar consumer research, are based on assumptions from limited and unreliable market data and a rapidly evolving market. A failure in the demand for our products to materialize as a result of competition, technological change, failure of states to enforce regulations, state or federal adoption of new regulations or enforcement of regulations previously not enforced, or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

***We may be subject to growth-related risks.***

We may be subject to growth-related risks, including capacity constraints and pressure on our internal systems and controls. Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our operational and financial systems and to expand, train and manage our employees and contractors. Our inability to deal with this growth may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, revenue, results of operation and financial condition.

***We rely on third parties for certain products sold to our customers, which could limit our control over the quality of the products*.**

The products sold by our hemp-derived beverage business are co-manufactured by third parties. We do not typically have any direct control over these third-party co-manufacturers. These third-party co-manufacturers could experience quality control issues, equipment problems, data loss, and other events relating to the products they produce that could impact the quality of those products. Should the third-party co-manufacturers we rely upon not deliver at standards we expect and desire, acceptance of our products could suffer, which would have an adverse effect on our business and financial performance. Further, we cannot be assured of entering into agreements with such third-party co-manufacturers on economically favorable terms.

***We face an inherent risk of product liability and similar claims.***

As a producer and distributor of products designed to be ingested by humans, we face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if our products are alleged to have failed to meet expected standards or to have caused significant loss or injury. In addition, the sale of our products involves the risk of injury to consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination. Previously unknown adverse reactions resulting from human consumption of our products alone or in combination with other medications or substances could occur. We may be subject to various product liability claims, including, among others, that our products caused injury, illness or death, include inadequate instructions for use or include inadequate warnings concerning possible side effects or interactions with other substances. As an agricultural product, the quality of hemp is inherently variable, and consumers may raise claims that our quality control or labeling processes have not sufficiently ensured that our grown and manufactured processes are sufficient to meet expected standards. A product liability claim or regulatory action against us could result in increased costs, could adversely affect our reputation with our clients and consumers generally and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. There can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain or maintain product liability insurance on acceptable terms or with adequate coverage against potential liabilities. Such insurance is expensive and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage on reasonable terms or to otherwise protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of our potential products.

***Our products may be subject to product recalls.***

Manufacturers, distributors and retailers of products are sometimes subject to the recall or return of their products for a variety of reasons, including product defects, such as contamination, unintended harmful side effects or interactions with other substances, packaging safety and inadequate or inaccurate labeling disclosure. If any of our products are recalled due to an alleged product defect or for any other reason, we could be required to incur the unexpected expense of the recall and any legal proceedings that might arise in connection with the recall. We may lose a significant amount of sales and may not be able to replace those sales at an acceptable margin, if at all. In addition, a product recall may require significant management attention. There can be no assurance that any quality, potency or contamination problems will be detected in time to avoid unforeseen product recalls, regulatory action or lawsuits. Additionally, if any of our brands were subject to recall, our image and the image of that brand could be harmed. A recall for any of the foregoing reasons could lead to decreased demand for our products and could have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations and financial condition. Additionally, product recalls may lead to increased scrutiny of our operations by the FDA, or other regulatory agencies, requiring further management attention and potential legal fees and other expenses.

***The growth and success of our business are significantly affected by the continued contributions of personnel employed by Green Thumb, as well as our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel*.**

Our growth and success are significantly affected by the continued contributions made by our Chairman of the Board and Interim Chief Executive Officer, Benjamin Kovler, by our Chief Financial Officer, Brad Asher and by other individuals who are employees of Green Thumb and who provide services to us under a shared services agreement. We rely on Mr. Kovler's expertise in business operations and the cannabis and hemp industries when we are developing or acquiring new products and services and on Mr. Asher's financial and reporting expertise. If Mr. Kovler or Mr. Asher cannot serve us or are no longer willing to do so, or if Green Thumb no longer provides personnel support to us under the shared services agreements, we may not be able to find alternatives in a timely manner or at all. This may have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, our growth and success will depend to a significant extent on our ability to identify, attract, hire, train and retain qualified professional, creative, technical and managerial personnel. Competition for experience and qualified talent can be intense. We may not be successful in identifying, attracting, hiring, training and retaining such personnel in the future. If we are unable to hire, assimilate and retain qualified personnel in the future, such inability could adversely affect our operations.

***We rely on third parties, including our largest shareholder, to provide numerous capabilities that we depend upon to operate, and a disruption of these systems could adversely affect our business.***

We are dependent on vendors and third-party providers, including the services of the employees of Green Thumb, our largest shareholder, under shared services agreements. A serious disruption to any of these could significantly limit our ability to serve our customers. The failure of one or more such providers to provide the expected services, provide them on a timely basis or provide them at the prices we expect, or otherwise meet our performance standards and expectations (including with respect to data security, compliance and data privacy and protection laws) may adversely affect our business. Further, if we found it necessary to replace any such service provider, disruptions arising from the transition of functions to an alternative provider, or the costs of developing our own functions if we were unable to find an alternate provider, may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Any disruption could adversely impact our results of operations and the trading price of our common stock.

***Our success depends in part upon our ability to protect our intellectual property and protecting and defending against intellectual property claims may have a material adverse effect on our business***

Our ability to compete depends, in part, upon the successful protection of our intellectual property, including the core brands we own and license to related parties: Señorita, RYTHM, incredibles, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon's, &Shine, and Good Green. We seek to protect our intellectual property rights through a combination of copyright and trademark laws, common law rights, trade secret and unfair competition laws, non-disclosure agreements, confidentiality procedures, and other contractual rights, as well as procedures governing internet and domain name registrations. However, there can be no assurance that these measures will be successful in any given case. We may be unable to prevent the misappropriation, infringement or violation of our intellectual property rights, breach of any contractual obligations to us, or independent development of intellectual property that is similar to ours, any of which could reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage we have developed, adversely affecting our revenues or otherwise harming our business.

We generally control access to and use of our intellectual property and other confidential information through the use of internal and external controls, including contractual protections with employees, contractors, customers, and partners, and our software is protected by U.S. copyright laws.

Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights through intellectual property laws, licenses and confidentiality arrangements, unauthorized parties may still copy or otherwise obtain and use our trademarks, recipes or other intellectual property. Companies frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation, or violations of intellectual property rights or other laws. Enforcement of our intellectual property rights would be costly, and there can be no assurance that we will have the resources to undertake all necessary action to protect our intellectual property rights or that we will be successful. Any infringement of our material intellectual property rights could require us to redirect resources to actions necessary to protect same and could distract management from our underlying business operations. An infringement of our material intellectual property rights and resulting actions could adversely affect our operations.

Further, from time to time, we may face allegations that we have infringed the trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights of third parties, including competitors or that we have failed to protect our licensees from such infringement claims, resulting in indemnification. If it became necessary for us to resort to litigation to protect these rights, any proceedings could be burdensome, costly and divert the attention of our personnel, and we may not prevail. In addition, any repeal or weakening of laws or enforcement in the U.S. or internationally intended to protect intellectual property rights could make it more difficult for us to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, negatively impacting their value and increasing the cost of enforcing our rights.

We have obtained and applied for certain U.S. and state trademark and service mark registrations and will continue to evaluate the registration of additional trademarks and service marks or, as appropriate. We cannot guarantee that any of our pending trademark applications will be approved by the applicable governmental authorities. Specifically, the federal registrability of ingestible hemp-derived products is difficult to predict given the evolving regulatory landscape for hemp and the USPTO's reaction to the same. Moreover, even if the trademark applications are approved, third parties may seek to oppose or otherwise challenge these registrations. A failure to obtain registrations for our trademarks could dilute the value of our brands or limit and impede our marketing efforts.

***We have licensed the intellectual property for certain of our brands for use by state-licensed cannabis operators. While we do not engage in any cannabis-(or "marijuana-") related activity under the Controlled Substances Act, changes in state regulations of cannabis, changes in U.S. federal cannabis enforcement policy, or a failure of any licensee to comply with the terms of its license agreement or applicable state and local laws and regulations could impair our Licensing Revenue we generate from any licensee and could also impair the value of our brands.***

We do not cultivate, distribute or dispense marijuana as that term is defined by the CSA. We have licensed the use of the intellectual property for certain of our brands to be used in the cannabis industry under state law programs legalizing such activities through state-regulated licenses, although such activities remain illegal under U.S. federal law. While state regulation in certain U.S. states may take a permissive approach to medical and/or adult-use of cannabis, the CSA may still be enforced by U.S. federal law enforcement officials against individuals and companies operating in those states for activity that is legal under state law. In exchange for Licensing Revenue, we license our brands to be used by a state licensed licensee whose operations, while compliant with state laws, are not permitted under federal law. A change in U.S. federal policy on cannabis enforcement and strict enforcement of federal cannabis laws against any licensee could materially impair the Licensing Revenue we receive, if the licensees' ability to sell their products is materially impaired by such change. It may also impair the value of the brands licensed to such licensees and our operating results and/or financial condition.

While our intellectual property license agreements require that our licensees conduct their business activities in a manner compliant with the applicable state and local laws, regulations and other requirements, we cannot guarantee that the licensees will do so. As a result, federal, state or local government authorities may seek to bring criminal, administrative or regulatory enforcement actions against licensee(s), which could have a material adverse effect on our Licensing Revenue, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our operating results or financial condition.

Licensees in the cannabis industry face challenges unique to that industry that can impact their financial health and long-term viability. If licensees struggle financially or do not remain viable, that can negatively impact our ability to generate Licensing Revenue. As a licensor of brands to cannabis operators, we are not responsible for licensees' compliance with applicable laws or regulations.

***Our intellectual property is subject to repurchase rights, which, if exercised, could materially adversely affect our business.***

Under the MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements, Green Thumb or its affiliates may repurchase some or all of the assets we acquired from MC Brands and/or VCP within five years of the respective transaction dates upon the occurrence of specified eligibility conditions, all of which are outside the control of both the Company and Green Thumb. The 2026 Appropriations Act includes an amendment to the definition of hemp under the 2018 Farm Bill that, if implemented as enacted, could materially restrict the commercialization of certain hemp-derived THC products beginning 365 days after enactment. If the amendment becomes effective in its current form and is not repealed, replaced, or otherwise modified prior to its effective date, one of the eligibility conditions under the MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements that could permit the repurchase right to become exercisable would be satisfied. However, the exercise of the repurchase option remains solely within the discretion of Green Thumb and its affiliates. The full eligibility conditions are set forth in the MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements filed on May 22, 2025 and August 27, 2025, respectively.

Licensing Revenue represents, and is expected to continue to represent, a significant portion of our total revenue. If a repurchase option were exercised, we could lose a material source of revenue, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In such event, the market price of our common stock could decline. The purchase agreements also grant Green Thumb or its affiliates certain rights of first refusal and rights of first offer with respect to specified transactions.

***Because we do not control licensees' actions and we depend on licensees for a substantial portion of our earnings from operations, their conduct could harm our business.***

We license to licensees in the cannabis industry the rights to produce and market certain products sold with our trademarks, and we do not exercise any operational or financial control over the licensees' businesses. If the quality, focus, image or distribution of our licensed brands diminish, consumer acceptance of and demand for our brands could decline. This could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. Our Licensing Revenue constitutes a substantial portion of our revenue. A decrease in customer demand for any of our licensed brands could have a material adverse effect on our operating results or financial condition. In addition, our inability to replace any existing licensee, if necessary, could adversely affect our revenues and results of operations.

***Our ability to use our net operating losses to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations***.

The utilization of our net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards is subject to limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC" or the "Code") of 1986, and similar state tax provisions due to ownership change limitations that may have occurred previously or that could occur in the future. In general, under Section 382, a corporation that undergoes an "ownership change" (as defined under Section 382 of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations) is subject to limitations on its ability to utilize its pre-change NOLs to offset its future taxable income.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company completed an analysis of ownership changes. The analysis identified multiple historical ownership changes that significantly limit the utilization of federal NOLs through the date of the most recent change on November 5, 2024, subjecting them to a minimal annual limitation. The Company is in the process of conducting a similar analysis for state income tax purposes. NOLs generated after November 5, 2024 are not currently subject to this limitation and may be available to offset future taxable income, although any future ownership changes could impose additional limitations. The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets, including NOLs, due to the Section 382 limitations resulting from historical ownership changes and the uncertainty surrounding the Company's ability to generate sufficient taxable income to utilize the remaining NOLs before they expire. Any NOLs that cannot be utilized due to limitations resulting from future ownership changes or a lack of future taxable income would adversely affect our ability to reduce future tax liabilities using past losses.

***Failure by our co-manufacturers to comply with food safety, environmental or other laws and regulations, or with the specifications and requirements of our products, may disrupt our supply of products and adversely affect our business.***

If any of our suppliers or co-manufacturers fail to comply with food safety, environmental, health and safety or other laws and regulations, or face allegations of non-compliance, their operations may be disrupted, and our reputation could be harmed. Additionally, our suppliers and co-manufacturers are required to maintain the quality of our products and to comply with our standards and specifications. In the event of actual or alleged non-compliance, we might be forced to find alternative suppliers or co-manufacturers, and we may be subject to lawsuits and/or regulatory enforcement actions related to such non-compliance by the suppliers and co-manufacturers. As a result, our supply of raw materials or finished inventory could be disrupted or our costs could increase, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. The failure of any co-manufacturer to produce products that conform to our standards could adversely affect our reputation in the marketplace and result in product recalls, product liability claims, government or third-party actions and economic loss. Additionally, actions we may take to mitigate the impact of any disruption or potential disruption in our supply of raw materials or finished inventory, including increasing inventory in anticipation of a potential supply or production interruption, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We may not be able to obtain or maintain necessary permits and authorizations.***

We may not be able to obtain or maintain the necessary licenses, permits, certificates, authorizations or accreditations to operate our business, or may only be able to do so at great cost. In addition, we may not be able to comply fully with the wide variety of laws and regulations applicable to the hemp-derived products industry. Failure to comply with or to obtain the necessary licenses, permits, certificates, authorizations or accreditations could result in restrictions on our ability to operate in the hemp-derived products industry, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

***We are dependent on the popularity of consumer acceptance of our brand portfolio.***

Our ability to generate revenue and be successful in the implementation of our business plan is dependent on consumer acceptance of and demand for our products. Acceptance of our products depends on several factors, including availability, cost, ease of use, familiarity of use, convenience, effectiveness, safety and reliability. If customers do not accept our products, or if such products fail to adequately meet customers' needs and expectations, our ability to continue generating revenues could be reduced. Additional competition and increased product availability may result in competitors undercutting our prices. From time to time, we may need to reduce our prices in response to competitive and customer pressures and to maintain our market share, which could materially reduce our revenues.

***We are and may continue to be subject to constraints on marketing our products.***

States have enacted strict regulations regarding marketing and sales activities on hemp-derived products. There may be restrictions on sales and marketing activities imposed by government regulatory bodies that can hinder the development of our business and operating results. Restrictions may include regulations that specify what, where and to whom product information and descriptions may appear and/or be advertised. Marketing, advertising, packaging and labeling regulations also vary from state to state, potentially limiting the consistency and scale of consumer branding communication and product education efforts. The regulatory environment in the U.S. limits our ability to compete for market share in a manner similar to other industries. If we are unable to effectively market our products and compete for market share, or if the costs of compliance with government legislation and regulation cannot be absorbed through increased selling prices for our products, our sales and operating results could be adversely affected.

***Our business and asset portfolio are not highly diversified by either industry or geographically. If our business and assets underperform, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be negatively impacted.***

Our current business is focused on hemp-derived THC products and licensing our intellectual property consumer packaged goods brands. Thus, we have, and are expected to have, limited industry diversity as to asset type and revenue generation. Additionally, our hemp-derived THC business is geographically concentrated in the states in which such products are permitted, and new federal, state or local regulations, interpretations, or enforcement actions could limit our ability to manufacture and sell hemp-derived THC products. Our Licensing Revenue is currently limited to Green Thumb for use in their state-licensed cannabis operations. This lack of industry and geographic diversification increases the risk associated with the revenue stream we expect to receive from our businesses and assets and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

***We face risks related to our products.***

We have committed and expect to continue committing significant resources and capital to develop and market existing products and new products and services. These products are relatively untested in the marketplace, and we cannot assure shareholders and investors that we will achieve market acceptance for these products, or other new products and services that we may offer in the future, or that our products that achieve market acceptance will be able to maintain that acceptance over time. Moreover, these and other new products and services may be subject to significant competition with offerings by new and existing competitors in the business. In addition, new products and services may pose a variety of challenges. The failure to successfully develop and market these new products and services could seriously harm our business, prospects, revenue, results of operation and financial condition.

**Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock**

***Concentration of ownership may prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions*.**

Green Thumb beneficially owns approximately 33% of our outstanding shares of common stock and has the right to acquire more through the exercise of warrants and conversion of notes. As a result, Green Thumb may have the ability to significantly influence matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of our articles of incorporation and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, our bylaws permit stockholders to act by written consent. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing or influencing a change of control of our company or changes in management and may make it more difficult to approve certain transactions without the support of Green Thumb. Conversely, this ownership concentration may allow Green Thumb to influence the outcome of transactions that other shareholders do not support.

***A large number of shares eligible for public sale could depress the market price of our common stock***.

We have filed registration statements to register the shares of common stock underlying outstanding options and shares reserved for future issuance under our equity compensation plans. Upon effectiveness of those registration statement, subject to the satisfaction of applicable exercise periods and subject to our insider trading policy, the shares of common stock issued upon exercise of outstanding options will be available for immediate resale in the U.S. in the open market.

Sales of our common stock as restrictions end or pursuant to registration rights may make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. These sales also could cause our stock price to fall and make it more difficult for you to sell shares of our common stock.

***Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in a de-listing of our common stock.***

If we fail to satisfy the rules and continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, such as the requirements relating to corporate governance, shareholder approval, shareholders' equity or our minimum closing bid price, Nasdaq will take steps to delist our common stock. Such a de-listing would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair stockholders' ability to sell or purchase our common stock when they wish to do so, as well as adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and obtain additional financing in the future. In the past, we have received deficiency letters relating to our minimum bid price, committee composition, and shareholders' equity. While we have regained compliance with those requirements, there can be no assurance that we will remain in compliance or that Nasdaq will interpret shareholder approval requirements consistent with our interpretations.

***The exercise of all or any number of outstanding warrants or the issuance of stock-based awards may dilute your holding of shares of our Common Stock.***

We have issued several securities providing for the right to purchase our common stock. Investors could be subject to increased dilution upon the exercise of our warrants. A total of approximately 10.9 million warrants were issued and outstanding as of March 3, 2026.

Investors may experience dilution in the value of their investment upon the exercise of the warrants and any equity awards that may be granted or issued pursuant to the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

***Provisions in our articles of incorporation, our by-laws and Nevada law might discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company or changes in our management and, therefore, depress the trading price of our Common Stock****.*

Provisions of our articles of incorporation, our by-laws and Nevada law may have the effect of deterring unsolicited takeovers or delaying or preventing a change in control of our company or changes in our management, including transactions in which our stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices. In addition, these provisions may limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests. These provisions include:

● the inability of stockholders to call special meetings; and

● the ability of our board of directors to designate the terms of and issue new series of preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could include the right to approve an acquisition or other change in our control or could be used to institute a rights plan, also known as a poison pill, that would work to dilute the stock ownership of a potential hostile acquirer, likely preventing acquisitions that have not been approved by our board of directors.

The existence of the forgoing provisions and anti-takeover measures could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our Common Stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of our company, thereby reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your Common Stock in an acquisition.

***We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the JOBS Act, and a "smaller reporting company" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies will make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.***

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including (1) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in this report and our periodic reports and proxy statements and (3) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, as an emerging growth company, we are only required to provide two years of audited consolidated financial statements and two years of selected financial data in this report. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any March 31 before that time or if we have total annual gross revenue of $1.0 billion or more during any fiscal year before that time, after which, in each case, we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31 or, if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during any three-year period before that time, we would cease to be an emerging growth company immediately.

Additionally, we are a "smaller reporting company" as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited consolidated financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of our shares of Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the prior June 30, or (2) our annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our ordinary shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30. To the extent we take advantage of such reduced disclosure obligations, it may also make comparison of our consolidated financial statements with other public companies difficult or impossible.

After we are no longer a "smaller reporting company," or "emerging growth company" we expect to incur additional management time and cost to comply with the more stringent reporting requirements applicable to companies that are deemed accelerated filers or large accelerated filers, including complying with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

***We have not and do not expect to declare any dividends to our shareholders in the foreseeable future***.

We have not and do not anticipate declaring any cash dividends to holders of our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Consequently, investors may need to rely on sales of their Common Stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our Common Stock.

***As a public company, we are obligated to develop and maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting. These internal controls may not be determined to be effective, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of our Common Stock*.**

We are required, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, to annually furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment includes disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting. If we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we will be unable to assert that our internal controls are effective. If we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our auditors are unable to express an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal controls, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which would have a material adverse effect on the price of our Common Stock.

**General Risk Factors**

***Increases in costs, disruption of supply or shortage of raw materials could harm our business***.

We may experience increases in the cost or a sustained interruption in the supply or shortage of raw materials. Any such increase or supply interruption could materially negatively impact our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results. We use various raw materials in our business including agricultural products that are subject to supply shortages resulting from, among other factors, weather conditions and tariffs. The prices for these raw materials fluctuate depending on market conditions and global demand for these materials and could adversely affect our business and operating results. Substantial increases in the prices for our raw materials increase our operating costs and could reduce our margins if we cannot recoup the increased costs through increased prices for our products and services.

***Litigation may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations***.

From time to time in the normal course of our business operations, we may become subject to litigation involving intellectual property, data privacy and security, consumer protection, commercial disputes and other matters that may negatively affect our operating results if changes to our business operation are required. Moreover, parties may attempt to file claims against us in connection with lines of business that we have divested, and our ability to recover such amounts through indemnification may be limited. Due to our manufacturing and sale of our products, we may also be subject to a variety of claims including product warranty, product liability, and consumer protection claims related to product defects, among other litigation. We may also be subject to claims involving health and safety, hazardous materials usage, other environmental impacts, or service disruptions or failures. The cost to defend such litigation may be significant and may require a diversion of our resources. There also may be adverse publicity associated with litigation that could negatively affect customer perception of our business, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or whether we are ultimately found liable. As a result, litigation may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, insurance may not cover existing or future claims, be sufficient to fully compensate us for one or more of such claims or continue to be available on terms acceptable to us. A claim brought against us that is uninsured or underinsured could result in unanticipated costs, thereby adversely affecting our results of operations and resulting in a reduction in the trading price of our stock.

***An active, liquid, and orderly trading market for our Common Stock may not develop, the price of our stock may be volatile, and you could lose all or part of your investment***.

The trading price of our Common Stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. Our stock price could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, which include:

● whether we achieve our anticipated corporate objectives;

● actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;

● changes in our financial or operational estimates or projections;

● our ability to implement our operational plans;

● changes in the economic performance or market valuations of companies similar to ours; and

● general economic or political conditions in the U.S. or elsewhere.

In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for cannabis and hemp-related companies, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies' stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a particular company's securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. This litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management's attention and resources.

***We incur increased costs and demands upon management as a result of complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies, which could adversely affect our operating results***.

As a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses, including costs associated with public company reporting and corporate governance requirements. These requirements include compliance with Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or ("SEC"), and Nasdaq. We expect complying with these rules and regulations will substantially increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and may place undue strain on our personnel, systems and resources, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

As a public company, we also expect that it may be more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as our executive officers.

***Data privacy and security concerns relating to our technology and our practices could damage our reputation, cause us to incur significant liability, and deter current and potential users or customers from using our products and services. Software bugs or defects, security breaches, and attacks on our systems could result in the improper disclosure and use of user data and interference with our users and customers' ability to use our products and services, harming our business operations and reputation.***

Concerns about our practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure, or security of personal information or other data-privacy-related matters, even if unfounded, could harm our reputation, financial condition, and operating results. Our policies and practices may change over time as expectations regarding privacy and data change. Our products and services involve the storage and transmission of proprietary information, and bugs, theft, misuse, defects, vulnerabilities in our products and services, and security breaches expose us to a risk of loss of this information, improper use and disclosure of such information, litigation, and other potential liability. Systems and control failures, security breaches and/or inadvertent disclosure of user data could result in government and legal exposure, seriously harm our reputation and brand and, therefore, our business, and impair our ability to attract and retain customers.

We may experience cyber-attacks and other attempts to gain unauthorized access to our systems. We may experience future security issues, whether due to employee error or malfeasance or system errors or vulnerabilities in our or other parties' systems, which could result in significant legal and financial exposure. We may be unable to anticipate or detect attacks or vulnerabilities or implement adequate preventative measures. Attacks and security issues could also compromise trade secrets and other sensitive information, harming our business. As a result, we may suffer significant legal, reputational, or financial exposure, which could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

***If our shares of Common Stock become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares***.

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not retain a listing on Nasdaq and if the price of our Common Stock is less than $5.00, our Common Stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our Common Stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

***The financial and operational projections that we may make from time to time are subject to inherent risks***.

The projections that our management may provide from time to time (including, but not limited to, those relating to potential peak sales amounts, production, and supply dates, and other financial or operational matters) reflect numerous assumptions made by management, including assumptions with respect to our specific as well as general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, there is a risk that the assumptions made in preparing the projections, or the projections themselves, will prove inaccurate. There will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially different from those contained in the projections. The inclusion of the projections in this report should not be regarded as an indication that we or our management or representatives considered or consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events, and the projections should not be relied upon as such.

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline***.

The trading market for our Common Stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

**Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.**

None

**Item 1C. Cybersecurity**

***Risk Management***

We have implemented practices to assess risks from cybersecurity threats; monitor our information systems for potential vulnerabilities; and test those systems pursuant to our cybersecurity policies, processes, and practices, which are integrated into our overall risk management program. To protect our information systems from cybersecurity threats, we rely on various security tools that are designed to help identify, escalate, investigate, resolve, and recover from security incidents in a timely manner. We have chosen Microsoft Corporation as our main provider for Cybersecurity and Governance services. Our technology management team and Audit Committee assess risks based on probability and potential impact to key business systems and processes. Risks that are considered high are addressed promptly and documented to be incorporated into our overall risk management program. A mitigation plan is developed for each identified high risk, with progress reported to the technology management team and tracked as part of our overall risk management program overseen by Board and its Audit Committee.

To date, cybersecurity threats, including those resulting from any previous cybersecurity incidents, have not materially affected our Company, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. We do not believe that cybersecurity threats resulting from any previous cybersecurity incidents of which we are aware are reasonably likely to materially affect our Company.

***Governance***

Our Board oversees our risk management process, including as it pertains to cybersecurity risks, directly and through its committees. The Audit Committee of the board oversees our risk management program, which focuses on the most significant risks we face in the short-, intermediate-, and long-term timeframe. The Audit Committee reviews our cybersecurity risk profile with management on a periodic basis using key performance and/or risk indicators. These key performance indicators are metrics and measurements designed to assess the effectiveness of our cybersecurity program in the prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents.

We take a risk-based approach to cybersecurity and have implemented cybersecurity policies throughout our operations that are designed to address cybersecurity threats and incidents.

**Item 2. Properties.**

Our corporate headquarters is in Rolling Meadows, Illinois where we occupy corporate office space. We operate an asset-light business model and do not own any real property. We do not have any material property leases, and we rely on third-party manufacturers, distributors, and service providers to support our operations.

As previously disclosed, the Company's lease for office space in Troy, Michigan was scheduled to expire in 2026. In March 2025, the Company terminated the lease prior to its scheduled expiration. The termination did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**Item 3. Legal Proceedings.**

From time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings or claims arising in the ordinary course of business. For information related to significant legal proceedings in which we are involved, see the discussion under the caption Legal Matters in Note 23 - Commitments and Contingencies to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which information is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.

**Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.**

*You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations, whose actual outcomes involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those stated in or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled "Risk Factors," "Cautionary Statement regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and elsewhere in this report.*

*Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, references in this report to "RYTHM", the "Company," "we," "us," "our," or similar references mean RYTHM, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.*

 

**Overview**

RYTHM is a developer of branded innovative solutions for the cannabis and hemp industries. The Company's portfolio of consumer-packaged goods brands includes RYTHM, incredibles, Dogwalkers, Beboe, &Shine, Doctor Solomon's, Good Green and Señorita. Our Señorita brand offers consumers hemp-derived tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC") beverages and are sold at top retailers, online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. The Señorita brand mirrors well-known cocktails like a margarita – in four flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Mango Margarita, Paloma and Ranch Water. Known for its clean, fresh taste and commitment to high-quality, natural ingredients, Señorita offers a low-sugar, low-calorie alternative to alcoholic beverages and is available in fifteen U.S. states and Canada including at top retailers such as Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny's. The RYTHM branded beverage comes in two fruit-driven flavors with effect-based ingredients. Other hemp-derived products including incredibles and Beboe edible products are primarily sold online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. In addition to the sale of hemp-derived products ("Non-licensing Revenue"), the Company licenses its brands to be manufactured and distributed in exchange for a licensing fee ("Licensing Revenue").

RYTHM has also historically been a leading provider of innovative cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry. Prior to the exit of the extraction business on March 30, 2025, the Company's comprehensive extraction product line ("the Extraction Business"), which included hydrocarbon, alcohol, solventless, post-processing, and lab equipment, empowered cannabis producers to maximize the quantity and quality of extract required for premium concentrates. Additionally, prior to its sale on December 31, 2024, the Company's proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical Farming Units ("VFUs") enabled cultivators to produce high quality products for the cannabis industry ("the Cultivation Business"). As the discontinuation of the Extraction Business and the sale of the Cultivation Business represented strategic shifts that had a major effect on our operations and financial results, they have been presented in discontinued operations separate from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 in the Company's consolidated statements of operations and applicable footnotes in accordance with ASC 205, *Presentation of Financial Statements*. Please refer to Item 1 and the notes to the consolidated financial statements for details on recent developments and significant transactions during the period.

***Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates***

Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial position and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, which include estimates related to accruals, stock-based compensation expense, recoverability of goodwill, intangible assets, and other assets, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. We base our estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions. Refer to Note 2 included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, for further information.

**Results of Operations**

We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. Refer to information provided under the heading "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below for further details.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total revenue | $17283 | $18 | $17265 | 95917% |

---

Revenues increased by $17.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. The comparative increase in revenue was primarily driven by the transactions with MC Brands and VCP in May and August 2025, respectively in addition to all revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the Cultivation Business and Extraction Business being presented as part of discontinued operations. Of the revenue recognized for the year ended December 31, 2025, $8.2 million was attributable to related parties.

***Cost of Goods Sold***

Cost of goods sold represents a combination of the following: internal and outsourced labor and material costs associated with the assembly of extraction equipment, as well as labor and parts costs associated with the sale or provision of other products and services.

The following table provides a breakdown of our cost of goods sold from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total cost of goods sold | $7093 | $89 | $7004 |  |

---

Cost of goods sold represents costs associated with the hemp-derived products sales (non-licensing). Cost of goods sold increased by $7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. The comparative increase in cost of goods sold was primarily driven by the hemp-derived THC edibles operations associated with the MC Brands transaction in May 2025, in addition to all cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2024 from the Cultivation Business and Extraction Business being presented as part of discontinued operations.

***Gross Profit***

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | | |
| <br>**(In thousands)** | **2025** | **2024** |<br>**Change** |<br>**% Change** |
| Gross profit (loss) | 10190 | (71) | 10261 | (14452)% |

---

Gross profit totaled $10 million, or 59%, of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to a gross loss of $71 thousand of total revenue during the year ended December 31, 2024. The comparative $10.3 million year-over-year increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the changes in product lines of the business.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expenses***

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | | |
| <br>**(In thousands)** | **2025** | **2024** |<br>**Change** |<br>**% Change** |
| Selling, general and administrative | $34055 | $7182 | $26873 | 374% |

---

Selling, General and administrative expenses ("SG&A") consist principally of marketing costs and support services performed by Green Thumb, as well as stock-based compensation and travel expenses associated with executive and other administrative functions. Other SG&A expenses include, but are not limited to, professional fees for legal and accounting services and depreciation and amortization costs.

SG&A expenses increased by $27 million, or 374%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The comparative change is primarily attributable to marketing and consulting costs to support the growth of the hemp-derived THC products sales (non-licensing) in addition to the presentation of SG&A expense from the Cultivation Business and Extraction Business for the year ended December 31, 2024 as part of discontinued operations. Of the SG&A expense incurred for the year ended December 31, 2025, $10.6 million was attributable to related parties.

***Other Expense, Net***

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | | |
| <br>**(In thousands)** | **2025** | **2024** |<br>**Change** |<br>**% Change** |
| Interest expense, net | $(3203) | $(256) | $(2947) | 1151% |

---

***Interest expense, net***

Interest expense, net was approximately $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to interest expense, net of approximately $0.3 million for the same period in 2024. The change is attributable mainly to the increase of $72.0 million principal under the Convertible Notes. Included interest expense, net for the year ended December 31, 2025 is $4.1 million incurred from a related party. The year ended December 31, 2025 includes $1.2 million of interest income earned on cash deposits with no comparable amount earned in the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Change in fair value of warrant liability*

Change in fair value of the warrant liability decreased by $18.2 million, or 102%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase is related to the fair value remeasurement of warrants.

***Other income, net***

Other income, net increased by $0.5 million, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The comparative change is primarily attributable to the employee retention credit refunds received for the year ended December 31, 2025.

***Income Tax Provision***

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** | | |

---

Change in loss on provision for income taxes decreased by $2 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

As of December 31, 2025, our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents totaling $32.2 million. Our current working capital needs are to support revenue growth and manage inventory to meet demand forecasts and support operational growth. Our long-term financial needs primarily include working capital requirements. There are many factors that may negatively impact our available sources of funds in the future, including the ability to generate cash from operations, raise debt capital and raise cash from the issuance of our securities. The amount of cash generated from operations is dependent upon factors such as the successful execution of our business strategy and general economic conditions.

We may opportunistically raise debt capital, subject to market and other conditions. Additionally, as part of our growth strategies, we may also raise debt capital for strategic alternatives and general corporate purposes. If additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise such capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected.

The Company is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt exists when conditions and events, considered in aggregate, indicate that it is probable that a company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.

We have a history of recurring net losses and negative cash flow in operating activities. However, we believe our positive working capital as of December 31, 2025 inclusive of $32.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, anticipated contractual Licensing Revenue and ability to address our Convertible Notes will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements through at least the 12-month period following the date that these consolidated financial statements were issued.

Contractual debt maturities of $80 million exist through February 2027, with $72 million of the Convertible Notes held by Green Thumb, a related party. The election of these notes to be payable in cash upon maturity could raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, while these contractual maturities require management attention, management believes it is probable that the obligations will be addressed through extension or conversion consistent with historical practice. As such, our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

***Convertible Notes***

On November 5, 2024, the Company issued a secured convertible note (the "November 2024 Note") to RSLGH, LLC ("RSLGH"), a subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party. The November 2024 Note is a secured obligation of the Company and ranks senior to all indebtedness of the Company except for the May 2025 Notes and the August 2025 Notes (both as defined below), which rank on parity with the November 2024 Note. The November 2024 Note matured on November 5, 2025 and accrued interest at a 10.0% annualized rate. The principal amount of the November 2024 Note was converted into pre-funded warrant on the maturity date. The November 2024 Note provided for advances of up to $20 million in the aggregate, of which $10 million was advanced upon issuance. The November 2024 Note was amended on May 8, 2025 to issue pre-funded warrants in lieu of cash interest, with 18,614 pre-funded warrants issued on May 8, 2025 and an additional 11,373 pre-funded warrants issued on September 1, 2025, which were issued in lieu of the cash interest that would otherwise be payable under the November 2024 Note. The number of pre-funded warrants is equal to the cash interest amount otherwise payable on the November 2024 Note divided by the closing share price on May 8, 2025, the effective date of the amendment. No changes were made to the conversion price of the principal amount of the November 2024 Note. On May 22, 2025, the Company and RSLGH entered into a second amendment to the November 2024 Note, which amended the terms to, among other things, permit RSLGH to elect, subject to any required approvals under Nasdaq listing rules, to receive pre-funded warrants in lieu of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the November 2024 Note at a conversion price equal to the existing conversion price of $3.158 less the $0.001 exercise price of each pre-funded warrant. On November 3, 2025, the holder of the November 2024 Note elected to convert the outstanding principal and interest, into pre-funded warrants. The outstanding principal and accrued interest amounts of $10 million and $175 thousand respectively, resulted in the issuance of 3,167,564 and 55,433 pre-funded warrants, respectively.

On May 22, 2025, the Company issued secured convertible notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $30.0 million (collectively the "May 2025 Notes") to RSLGH and to certain other third-party accredited investors. The May 2025 Notes are secured obligations of the Company and rank senior to all indebtedness of the Company except for the the August 2025 Notes, which ranks on parity with the May 2025 Notes. The May 2025 Notes will mature on November 22, 2026 and accrue interest at a 10.0% annualized rate, with interest to be paid on the first calendar day of each September and March while the May 2025 Notes are outstanding, in pre-funded warrants, beginning September 1, 2025. The principal amount of the May 2025 Notes will be payable on the maturity date. The May 2025 Notes may be converted into Common Stock or, at the election of the holder, into pre-funded warrants, with a beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH of 49.99% and a beneficial ownership limitation for other holders of 4.99%, in each case subject to applicable Nasdaq listing rules. If a holder elects to convert the May 2025 Notes into Common Stock, the conversion price per share will be $23.53, equal to the most recent closing price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market at the time the May 2025 Notes were issued, subject to customary adjustments for certain corporate events. If a holder elects to convert the May 2025 Notes into pre-funded warrants, and for interest payments payable in the form of pre-funded warrants, the conversion price per pre-funded warrant will be equal to the $23.53 conversion price less than $0.001 exercise price of the warrant. The conversion of the May 2025 Notes into Common Stock and/or pre-funded warrants is subject to certain customary conditions and, to the extent necessary, the receipt of stockholder approval under Nasdaq listing rules.

On August 25, 2025, the Company issued secured convertible notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $50.0 million (collectively the "August 2025 Notes") to RSLGH and to certain other third-party accredited investors. The August 2025 Notes are secured obligations of the Company and rank senior to all indebtedness of the Company except for the May 2025 and November 2024 Notes, which rank on parity with the August 2025 Notes. The August 2025 Notes will mature on February 25, 2027 and accrue interest at a 10.0% annualized rate, with interest to be paid on the first calendar day of each September and March, while the August 2025 Notes are outstanding beginning March 1, 2026. The principal amount of the August 2025 Notes will be payable on the maturity date. The August 2025 Notes may be converted into Common Stock or, at the election of the holder, into pre-funded warrants, with a beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH of 49.99% and a beneficial ownership limitation for other holders of 4.99%, in each case subject to applicable Nasdaq listing rules. If a holder elects to convert the August 2025 Notes into Common Stock, the conversion price per share will be $29.475, equal to the Minimum Price as such term is defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 at the time the August 2025 Notes were issued, subject to customary adjustments for certain corporate events. If a holder elects to convert the August 2025 Notes into pre-funded warrants, and for interest payments elected to be paid in the form of pre-funded warrants, the conversion price per pre-funded warrant will be equal to the $29.475 conversion price less than $0.001 exercise price of the warrant. The conversion of the August 2025 Notes into Common Stock and/or pre-funded warrants is subject to certain customary conditions and, to the extent necessary, the receipt of stockholder approval under Nasdaq listing rules.

The May 2025 Notes and August 2025 Notes (together referred to as "the Notes") impose certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon the Company, including covenants relating to ranking and reservation of shares. If an event of default under one or more of the Notes occurs and is not waived, the holder can elect to accelerate all or a portion of the then-outstanding principal amount of the applicable Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per annum equal to 14% from the date of a default or event of default. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2025.

**Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.**

Not applicable.

**Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.**

The consolidated financial statements required to be filed pursuant to this Item 8 are appended to this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which consolidated financial statements are incorporated by reference in response to this Item 8. An index of those consolidated financial statements is found in "Item 15. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules" of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures.**

None.

**Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Management, with the participation of our Interim Chief Executive Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our Interim Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2025.

**Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Interim Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the results of this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective at the reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2025.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm because we are an "emerging growth company," and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not "emerging growth companies" including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

**Remediation of Prior Year Material Weaknesses**

As previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and filed with the SEC on March 21, 2025, as amended on March 28, 2025, management identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses that were previously identified related to the following: lack of technical expertise, segregation of duties and accounting for complex financial transactions.

Under the oversight of senior management and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, we have implemented a previously disclosed remediation plan designed to address the underlying causes of these material weaknesses. Key measures include:

● Expanding our accounting and financial reporting personnel with additional U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience;

● Establishing enhanced monitoring and review controls for non-recurring and complex transactions to ensure the accuracy and completeness of our financial statements and related disclosures;

● Formalizing and maintaining documentation of critical controls and accounting policies to strengthen consistency and accountability across the Company;

● Engaging nationally recognized third-party advisors on specific technical accounting and valuation matters; and

● Implementing and reinforcing segregation of duties within key financial reporting and operational processes.

Management, including the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has reaffirmed the importance of strong control environment and an organization-wide focus on internal control and accountability. Management has concluded that the actions taken to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting, as well as the results of our testing over the design and operating effectiveness of these controls fully remediated the previously identified material weakness as of December 31, 2025. However, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with applicable policies, processes and documentation requirements may deteriorate.

***Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting***

Except for the material weaknesses remediation actions noted above, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting(as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

**Item 9B. Other Information.**

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, none of our directors or officers informed us of the adoption, modification or termination of a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as those terms are defined in Regulation S-K, Item 408.

**Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections.**

Not applicable.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

RYTHM, Inc.

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of RYTHM, Inc. (formerly known as Agrify Corporation) (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Basis for Opinion** 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Emphasis of Matter – Related Parties**

As described in Note 3, Note 8, Note 10, Note 18, Note 21, and Note 23, the accompanying financial statements include significant transactions with a related party, and a significant portion of the Company's operating, investing, and financing activities are conducted with this related party.

/s/ GuzmanGray

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2024.

**Note 1 — Overview**

**Description of Business**

RYTHM, Inc. (formerly Agrify Corporation) (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company" or "RYTHM") delivers well-being to consumers through its portfolio of hemp-derived THC products and iconic licensed brands. The Company's portfolio of consumer-packaged goods brands includes RYTHM, incredibles, Dogwalkers, Beboe, &Shine, Doctor Solomon's, Good Green and Señorita. The Señorita brand offers consumers hemp-derived tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC") beverages that mirror well-known cocktails like a margarita – in four flavors – classic Lime Jalapeño Margarita, Mango Margarita, Paloma and Ranch Water. Known for its clean, fresh taste and commitment to high-quality, natural ingredients, Señorita offers a low-sugar, low-calorie alternative to alcoholic beverages and is available at top retailers including Total Wine, ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, and Binny's in eleven U.S. states and Canada, with plans for expansion and future availability in premier on-premises destinations. Other hemp-derived products including RYTHM beverages and incredibles and Beboe edible products are primarily sold online and through direct-to-retail partnerships. In addition to the sale of hemp-derived products ("Non-licensing Revenue"), the Company licenses its brands to be manufactured and distributed in exchange for a licensing fee ("Licensing Revenue"). Throughout the Form 10-K, the terms "intellectual property", "intellectual property rights", "brands", "trademarks", "tradenames", "brand rights" and "Prepaid License Rights" are used interchangeably.

RYTHM has also historically been a leading provider of innovative cultivation and extraction solutions for the cannabis industry. Prior to the exit of the extraction business on March 30, 2025, the Company's comprehensive extraction product line ("the Extraction Business"), which included hydrocarbon, alcohol, solventless, post-processing, and lab equipment, empowered cannabis producers to maximize the quantity and quality of extract required for premium concentrates. Additionally, prior to its sale on December 31, 2024, the Company's proprietary micro-environment-controlled Agrify Vertical Farming Units ("VFUs") enabled cultivators to produce high quality products for the cannabis.

The Company was formed in the State of Nevada on June 6, 2016 as Agrinamics, Inc., and subsequently changed its name to Agrify Corporation. On August 27, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company with the Secretary of State of Nevada, to effect a change in the Company's name from Agrify Corporation to RYTHM, Inc., effective as of September 2, 2025. In connection with the name change, the Company's trading symbol on the Nasdaq Capital Market changed from "AGFY" to "RYM" effective as of the open of trading on September 2, 2025. The Company is sometimes referred to herein by the words "we," "us," "our," and similar terminology.

The Company has thirteen wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, which are collectively referred to as the "Subsidiaries" and seven out of thirteen subsidiaries are related to discontinued operations.

On December 12, 2024, the Company acquired certain assets from Double or Nothing, LLC ("Double or Nothing"), the owner and creator of the Señorita brand of hemp-derived drinks as part of the Company's strategic plan to reposition itself as a distributor of hemp-derived THC beverages and similar products.

On December 31, 2024, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with CP Acquisitions, LLC ("CP"), an entity affiliated with Raymond Chang, the Company's former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Under the Purchase Agreement, CP acquired assets from the Company relating to the Company's VFUs, including the related Agrify total-turnkey ("TTK") solution assets and Agrify Insights<sup>TM</sup> software solutions (collectively the "Cultivation Business"). The sale of the Cultivation Business occurred following signing on December 31, 2024. The results of the Cultivation Business are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Cultivation Business associated with discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. For further discussion on the discontinued operations, refer to Note 17 included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On March 30, 2025, the Company approved the winding down of the Extraction Business by March 31, 2025, including but not limited to, the sale or other disposal of all remaining assets constituting the Extraction Business, the cessation of all business operations related to the Extraction Business, the termination of any outstanding contracts related to the Extraction Business, and termination of any employees primarily involved in the Extraction Business. The results of the Extraction Business are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Extraction Business associated with discontinued operations in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The balances as of December 31, 2024 reflect historical carrying values, without remeasurement. For further discussion on the discontinued operations, refer to Note 17 included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

On May 20, 2025, we acquired from VCP IP Holdings, LLC ("VCP") an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party, 100% of the equity interests of MC Brands, LLC pursuant to which we obtained rights relating to MC Brands, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary Core Growth LLC (together referred to as "MC Brands"). The assets of MC Brands consist primarily of intellectual property rights associated with the Incredibles brand. Concurrent with the transaction, we entered into a license agreement with GTI Core, LLC, ("GTI Core"), an indirect subsidiary of Green Thumb, pursuant to which GTI Core was granted the right to use the incredibles brand in connection with its existing businesses. Consideration payable by GTI Core under the license agreement consists of a monthly license fee payable in cash. We began recognizing licensing revenue under this agreement in May 2025.

On August 27, 2025, we acquired from VCP23, LLC an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, 100% of the equity interests of VCP IP Holdings, LLC pursuant to which we obtained rights relating to VCP IP Holdings, LLC. The assets of VCP IP Holdings, consist primarily of intellectual property rights to the RYTHM, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon's,& Shine, and Good Green brands (these rights, together with the incredibles brand rights, referred to as "Brand Rights"). Concurrent with the transaction, we entered into a license agreement with GTI Core pursuant to which GTI Core was granted the right to use the Brand Rights in connection with its existing businesses. Consideration payable by GTI Core under the license agreement consists of a monthly license fee payable in cash. We began recognizing licensing revenue under this agreement in November 2025.

**Reverse Stock Splits**

On October 8, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split of its Common Stock. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock splits for the year ended December 31, 2024, unless otherwise indicated.

No fractional shares of Common Stock were issued as a result of this reverse stock split. Any fractional shares in connection with this reverse stock splits were rounded up to the nearest whole share and no stockholders received cash in lieu of fractional shares. The reverse stock split had no impact on the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is authorized to issue pursuant to its articles of incorporation or on the par value per share of the Common Stock. Proportional adjustments were made to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Company's outstanding stock options and warrants, the exercise price or conversion price (as applicable) of the Company's outstanding stock options and warrants, and the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Company's equity incentive plan. All share and per share information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse stock split.

**Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies**

**Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation**

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and include the accounts of RYTHM and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as described above, in accordance with the provisions required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") the *Consolidation Topic 810* ("ASC 810"). The Company includes results of operations of acquired companies from the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated.

**Use of Estimates**

The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates estimates, which include estimates related to accruals, stock-based compensation expense, reported amounts of revenues during the reported period, fair value of warrant liabilities, sales tax liabilities, valuation of deferred tax assets, net realizable value of inventory and collectability of trade accounts, intangible assets, other assets (Prepaid License Rights), goodwill, and litigation. The Company bases their estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that they believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions.

The Company regularly evaluates its assets, including asset groups or reporting units, for impairment in accordance with GAAP. The Company is aware of the impact that prolonged net losses can have on the fair value of underlying assets and the overall company. The Company is committed to ensuring that the carrying amounts of its assets are appropriately assessed and adjusted for any impairment, reflecting a true and fair view of its financial position.

**Discontinued Operations**

On December 31, 2024, the Company entered into and closed a Purchase Agreement with CP. Under the Purchase Agreement, CP acquired assets from the Company relating to the Cultivation Business. On March 30, 2025, the Company discontinued the Extraction Business (together with the Cultivation Business, the "Discontinued Operations").

As the sale of the Cultivation Business and the exit of the Extraction Business represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results, they have been presented in discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205, *Presentation of Financial Statements*, separate from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, as applicable. For further discussion, refer to Note 17 included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents**

Cash and cash equivalents consist principally of cash and deposits with original maturities of three months or less as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. All cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

**Accounts Receivable, Net**

Accounts receivable, net, primarily consists of amounts for goods and services that are billed and currently due from customers. In accordance with the current expect credited loss ("CECL") impairment model under ASU 2016-13, *Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)*, accounts receivable balances are presented net of an allowance for credit losses, which are an estimate of billed or borrowed amounts that may not be collectible. In determining the amount of the allowance at each reporting date, management makes judgments about general economic conditions, historical write-off experience, and any specific risks identified in customer or borrower collection matters, including the aging of unpaid accounts receivable and changes in customer or borrower financial conditions. Accounts receivable balances are written off after all means of collection are exhausted and the potential for non-recovery is determined to be probable. Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are recorded as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded approximately $382 thousand in allowance for doubtful accounts. There was no comparable allowance in the prior year.

**Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customer**

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk primarily consist of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and accounts receivable. Cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds with original maturities of three months or less, which are invested primarily with U.S. financial institutions. Cash deposits with financial institutions generally exceed federally insured limits. Management believes minimal credit risk exists with respect to these financial institutions and the Company has not experienced any losses on such amounts.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, a related party customer and a third-party customer accounted for approximately 45% and 12% of the Company's revenue, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2025, a related party accounted for 75% of the Company's total accounts receivable.

For the year ended December 31, 2024, one customer accounted for 100% of revenue and accounts receivable.

**Inventories**

The Company values all its inventories, which consist primarily of finished goods and raw materials, at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost principally determined by the weighted-average cost method on a first-in, first-out basis. Write-offs of potentially slow-moving, damaged, or expiring inventory are recorded through specific identification of expired or damaged material. The Company takes a physical inventory count at least annually at all significant inventory locations.

**Property and Equipment**

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each asset. The estimated useful lives of the Company's property and equipment are periodically assessed to determine if changes are appropriate. The Company charges maintenance and repairs to expense as incurred. When the Company retires or disposes of assets, the carrying cost of these assets and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated from the consolidated balance sheets and any resulting gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of retirement or disposal.

**Goodwill**

Goodwill is defined as the excess of cost over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which the Company's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Factors that could lead to a future impairment include material uncertainties such as a significant reduction in projected revenues, a deterioration of projected financial performance, future acquisitions and/or mergers, and/or a decline in the Company's market value as a result of a significant sustained decline in the Company's stock price.

Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate there might be an impairment. An impaired asset is written down to its estimated fair value based upon the most recent information.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company performed a qualitative analysis for its goodwill impairment test. The Company applies the guidance in ASU 2011-08 *Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Testing Goodwill for Impairment*, which provides entities with an option to perform a qualitative assessment (commonly referred to as "Step Zero") to determine whether further quantitative analysis for impairment of goodwill is necessary. A goodwill impairment charge is recorded if the amount by which our carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Factors that could lead to a future impairment include material uncertainties such as a significant reduction in projected revenues, a deterioration of projected financial performance, future acquisitions and/or mergers, and a decline in our market value as a result of a significant sustained decline in our stock price. As a result of the Company's Step Zero analysis, no further quantitative impairment test was deemed necessary.

**Impairment of Long-Lived Assets** 

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Examples include a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which we use the asset, or an unexpected change in financial performance. When evaluating long-lived assets for impairment, we compare the carrying value of the asset to the asset's estimated undiscounted future cash flows. An impairment is indicated if the estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset. The impairment is the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset. We recorded impairment charges related to intangible assets and other assets (Prepaid License Rights) of $7.9 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2025 due to changes in legislation around hemp-derived products in November 2025, which is expected to become effective in November 2026. There was no comparable impairment in the prior year.

**Warrant Liabilities**

The Company evaluates all its financial instruments, including issued private placement stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives, pursuant to ASC Topic 480, *Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity* ("ASC 480") and ASC Topic 815, *Derivatives and Hedging* ("ASC 815"). The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant's specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815. Management's assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own Common Stock among other conditions for equity classification.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, they are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that are precluded from equity classification, they are recorded as a liability at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and subject to remeasurement on each balance sheet date with changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants to be recognized as an unrealized gain or loss in the consolidated statements of operations.

**Convertible Notes Payable**

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company identify and record certain embedded conversion options ("ECOs"), certain variable-share settlement features, and any related freestanding instruments at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as an unrealized non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. Bifurcated embedded conversion options, variable-share settlement features, and any related freestanding instruments are recorded as a discount to the host instrument which is amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective note using the effective interest method.

**Leases**

The Company determines at the inception of an asset contract if such arrangement is or contains a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company classifies leases at the lease commencement date as operating or finance leases and records a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on its consolidated balance sheet for all leases with an initial lease term of greater than 12 months. A lease with an initial term of 12 months or less is not recorded on the balance sheet, but related payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company's asset contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. Non-lease components may include maintenance, utilities, and other operating costs. The Company combines the lease and non-lease components of fixed costs in its lease arrangements as a single lease component. Variable costs, such as utilities or maintenance costs, are not included in the measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, but rather are expensed when the event determining the amount of variable consideration to be paid occurs.

Lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of future lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company determines the present value of future lease payments by using its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate for that lease term as the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The Company estimates its secured incremental borrowing rate for each lease based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term.

Certain of the Company's leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. The amounts determined for the Company's right-of-use assets and lease liabilities generally do not assume that renewal options or early-termination provisions, if any, are exercised unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. The Company did not have any leases as part of continuing operations as of years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

**Contract Liabilities**

Contract Liabilities includes amounts collected, billed in excess of revenue or customer deposits that the Company can recognize. The Company recognizes contract liabilities and non-current contract liabilities as revenue as the related performance obligation is satisfied. The Company records contract liabilities that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period as a current liability on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company did not have any contract liabilities in continuing operations as of years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

**Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts receivable, contingent considerations, long-term debt, related party debt, and warrant liabilities. Refer to Note 12 - Fair Value Measures, included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for details of the Company's financial instruments.

**Stock-Based Compensation**

The Company measures restricted stock units and stock options awards granted to employees, directors and consultants based on the fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense of those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. Forfeitures are recognized as incurred. Historically, the Company has issued stock options to employees, directors and consultants with only service-based vesting conditions and records the expense for these awards using the straight-line method.

The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient's payroll costs are classified.

The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option grant on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected term of the Company's stock options has been determined utilizing the "simplified" method for awards that qualify as "plain-vanilla" options. 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. The 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.

**Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions**

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 805, *Business Combinations*, for determining the appropriate accounting treatment for asset acquisitions. ASU 2017-01, *Clarifying the Definition of a Business*, provides an initial fair value screen to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset or group of similar assets. If the initial screening test is not met, the set is considered a business based on whether there are inputs and substantive processes in place. Based on the results of this analysis and conclusion on an acquisition's classification of a business combination or an asset acquisition, the accounting treatment is derived.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

If the acquisition is deemed to be a business, the purchase method of accounting is applied. The estimated fair value of net assets acquired, including the allocation of the fair value to identifiable assets and liabilities, is determined using established valuation techniques. A fair value measurement is determined as the price received to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the context of purchase accounting, the determination of fair value often involves significant judgments and estimates by management, including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenues, costs and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. The estimated fair values reflected in the purchase accounting rely on management's judgment and the expertise of a third-party valuation firm engaged to assist in concluding on the fair value measurements. In determining the fair value of all identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, the most significant estimates relate to intangible assets. For the intangible assets identified, depending on the type of intangible asset and the complexity of determining its fair value, the fair value is developed using appropriate valuation techniques, taking into account assumptions such as the expected future revenue, expected use of the asset, market conditions, uncertainty factors, the estimated useful life, and discount rate, among other factors. These assumptions may vary based on future events, perceptions of different market participants and other factors outside the control of management, and such variations may be significant to estimated values.

If the transaction is deemed to be an asset acquisition, the cost accumulation and allocation model is used whereby the assets and liabilities are recorded based on the purchase price and allocated to the individual assets and liabilities based on relative fair values. For the allocation of intangible assets identified, depending on the type of intangible asset and the complexity of determining its relative fair value, an independent valuation expert or management may allocate the relative fair value, using appropriate valuation techniques, which are generally based on a forecast of the total expected future net cash flows and takes into consideration other significant assumptions such as the expected use, market uncertainty, marketing or sales support requirements and the intangible asset useful lives.

**Prepaid License Rights**

If a sale arrangement includes terms—such as repurchase features or other provisions—that prevent the buyer from obtaining control of the business or assets, the Company concludes that control has not transferred. In those circumstances, the arrangement is accounted for based on its substance under other applicable U.S. GAAP. In connection with such arrangements, amounts paid for licensing rights are deferred and recorded as prepaid licensing rights on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. These amounts are recognized in expense over the period in which the related rights are utilized or otherwise as the underlying economic benefit is consumed.

 

**Revenue Recognition**

***Overview***

The Company generates revenue from continuing operations through the sale of hemp-derived THC products (non-licensing) and Licensing Revenue. The Company licenses intellectual property to a related party under arrangements that provide for sales-based license fees. The Company recognizes licensing income derived from licensing agreements in accordance with ASC Topic 606, *Revenue Recognition* ("ASC 606"), specifically, the sales-based royalty exception.

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue for hemp-derived THC products (non-licensing) is recognized through a five-step model, as outlined below:

● **Identify the customer contract**: A customer contract is identified when there is mutual approval and commitment between the Company and its customer, the rights and obligations are clear, payment terms are set, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability is probable. Written or electronic signatures on contracts and purchase orders are obtained if such orders are issued in the normal course of business by the customer.

● **Identify performance obligations that are distinct**: The Company identifies distinct performance obligations in each contract. A performance obligation is considered distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service on its own or with readily available resources, and if it is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company's revenue-generating activities typically have a single performance obligation.

● **Determine the transaction price**: The transaction price is the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the sale of the product. This amount is determined excluding sales taxes collected on behalf of government agencies and net of any sales discounts, incentives, and returns.

● **Allocate the transaction price to distinct performance obligations**: The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on the relative standalone selling prices ("SSP") of the goods or services provided. If a contract involves multiple performance obligations, each is accounted for separately if distinct, and the SSP reflects the price the Company would charge if the good or service were sold separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers.

● **Recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied**:

Revenue from the sale of hemp-derived THC products (non-licensing) is recognized when control of the product transfers to the customer, typically upon delivery or shipment, as the customer assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Payment terms vary by customer, but the time between revenue recognition and payment due is generally not significant. For products sold under consignment arrangements, revenue is recognized only when control is transferred to the end customer. The Company does not maintain a specific reserve for returns due to the limited circumstances under which returns are permitted in customer agreements. Payments for slotting, listing fees, or other marketing or promotional activities, where legally permitted, are recorded as a reduction in revenue unless a distinct good or service is received in exchange.<br>

In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-65 through 55-65B, Licensing Revenue is recognized only when the underlying sale by the licensee occurs, and the performance obligation has otherwise been satisfied. This approach ensures that revenue is recognized in the period in which it is earned and determinable, consistent with the transfer of control of the intellectual property to the licensee.<br>

**Income Taxes**

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 740, *Income Taxes* ("ASC 740"), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will not be realized.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company recognizes the benefit of a tax position when it is effectively settled. ASC 740, provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. ASC 740 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority. For tax positions considered effectively settled, the Company recognizes the full amount of the tax benefit.

The Company's provision for income taxes is measured using an annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items within the period presented. To determine the annual effective tax rate, the Company estimates both the total income (loss) before income taxes for the full year and the jurisdictions in which that income (loss) is subject to tax. The actual effective tax rate for the full year may differ from these estimates if income (loss) before income taxes is greater than or less than what was estimated or if the allocation of income (loss) to jurisdictions in which it is taxed is different from the estimated allocations.

The provision for income taxes represents Federal, state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the Company's loss position and the valuation allowance offsetting deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate may change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including, but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition, derecognition or re-measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period is recognized separately in the quarter of the change.

Tax contingencies are recorded, if needed, to address potential exposure involving tax positions the Company has taken that could be challenged by tax authorities. These potential exposures could result from applications of various statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. Any estimates of tax contingencies contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be included as part of the income tax provision. The Company's conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analysis of or changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors.

**Net Loss Per Share**

The Company presents basic and diluted net loss per share in conformity with the one-class method. The Company computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding. Diluted loss per share adjusts basic loss per share for the potentially dilutive impact of convertible notes, stock options, restricted stock units and warrants. As the Company has reported losses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, all potentially dilutive securities including convertible notes, stock options, restricted stock units and warrants, are anti-dilutive, and accordingly, basic net loss per share equals diluted net loss per share for those periods.

Net loss per share calculations for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock splits effected on October 8, 2024.

**Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements**

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to provide enhanced segment disclosures. The standard requires disclosures about significant segment expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment, for all periods presented. Additionally, the standard requires public entities to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") in the consolidated financial statements. These enhanced disclosures are required for all entities on an interim and annual basis, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures. The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard applies to all entities subject to income taxes and is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. For public business entities (PBEs), the new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2025 and the effect of this guidance is reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, *Financial Instruments - Credit Losses* ("ASU 2025-05"), to introduce a practical expedient for all entities, which simplifies the calculation required for estimating credit losses and assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods; however, early adoption is permitted. ASU 2025-25 allows for adoption using a prospective method. The Company early adopted this standard as of December 31, 2025. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**Recently Announced Accounting Pronouncements**

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*. This guidance requires additional disclosure of certain amounts included in the expense captions presented on the Statement of Operations as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, *Debt with Conversion and Other Options* ("ASU 2024-04"), which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. Adoption can be on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure impact that ASU 2024-04 may have on its financial statement presentation and disclosures.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270), Narrow-Scope Improvements, to provide clarity about the current requirements, rather than evaluate whether to expand or reduce interim disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 result in a comprehensive list of interim disclosures that are required by GAAP. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 also include a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure impact that ASU 2025-11 may have on its financial statement presentation and disclosures.

In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-12 *Codification Improvements* ("ASU 2025-12"), which includes various amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification intended to clarify, correct, and improve existing guidance. ASU 2025-12 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2025-12 may have on its financial statement presentation and disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

The Company is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt exists when conditions and events, considered in aggregate, indicate that it is probable that a company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.

We have a history of recurring net losses and negative cash flow in operating activities. However, we believe our positive working capital as of December 31, 2025 inclusive of $32.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, anticipated contractual Licensing Revenue and ability to address our Convertible Notes will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements through at least the 12-month period following the date that these consolidated financial statements were issued.

Contractual debt maturities of $80 million exist through February 2027, with $72 million of the Convertible Notes held by Green Thumb, a related party. The election of these notes to be payable in cash upon maturity could raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. However, while these contractual maturities require management attention, management believes it is probable that the obligations will be addressed through extension or conversion consistent with historical practice. As such, our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

**Note 3 — Acquisitions**

**Prepaid License Rights** 

***VCP Transaction***

 ****

On August 27, 2025, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with VCP23, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party, pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the equity interests in VCP. The assets of VCP consist primarily of intellectual property rights RYTHM, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon's, &Shine, and Good Green brands. The consideration exchanged for the equity interest was cash consideration of $50.0 million.

An affiliate of Green Thumb holds a call option to repurchase some or all of the VCP intellectual property rights for up to five years from the transaction date upon the occurrence of certain specified eligibility conditions, which are outside of the control of both parties but with likelihood of eligibility greater than remote. Due to changes in legislation around hemp-derived products enacted in November 2025, which are currently expected to become effective in November 2026, one of the eligibility conditions that would permit the repurchase right to become exercisable is likely to be satisfied within the next twelve months. However, satisfaction of such conditions does not obligate Green Thumb or its affiliates to exercise the repurchase option, which remains within their discretion.

Because this call option represents a substantive repurchase right, the arrangement includes terms that preclude the transfer of control and therefore does not meet the criteria for a completed sale. As such, the transaction is not accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805, as previously reported. Instead, the Company accounts for the arrangement under other applicable U.S. GAAP, including ASC 340. The Company determined that the consideration transferred represents a prepaid executory contract for access to and use of intellectual property, which is recorded as Prepaid License Rights (defined below) and recognized in expense as the related benefits are consumed. The Prepaid License Rights represent the right to use intellectual property in circumstances where control of the underlying intellectual property rights did not transfer. The resulting revision in accounting conclusion was not considered material to the current period or any prior period, including the Company's quarterly unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company evaluated the nature of the transaction whereby in exchange for the $50.0 million consideration the Company received access to and use of intellectual property ("Prepaid License Rights")*.* The Prepaid License Rights relate to the RYTHM, Beboe, Dogwalkers, Doctor Solomon's, &Shine, and Good Green brands and are measured based on the cost of consideration exchanged and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the asset, estimated based on the expected economic benefits of the asset. The useful lives of the Prepaid License Rights range from 2.4 to 4.4 years with a weighted average useful life of 3.9 years.

***MC Brands Transaction***

On May 20, 2025, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with VCP, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party, pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the equity interests in MC Brands LLC. The assets of MC Brands consist primarily of intellectual property rights to the incredibles brand. The consideration exchanged for the equity interest was cash consideration of $5.1 million.

An affiliate of Green Thumb holds a call option to repurchase some or all of the MC Brands intellectual property rights for up to five years from the transaction date upon the occurrence of certain specified eligibility conditions, which are outside of the control of both parties but with likelihood of eligibility greater than remote. Due to changes in legislation around hemp-derived products enacted in November 2025, which are currently expected to become effective in November 2026, one of the eligibility conditions that would permit the repurchase right to become exercisable is likely to be satisfied within the next twelve months. However, satisfaction of such conditions does not obligate Green Thumb or its affiliates to exercise the repurchase option, which remains within their discretion.

Because this call option represents a substantive repurchase right, the arrangement includes terms that preclude the transfer of control and therefore does not meet the criteria for a completed sale. As such, the transaction is not accounted for as an asset acquisition under ASC 805, as previously reported. Instead, the Company accounts for the arrangement under other applicable U.S. GAAP, including ASC 340. The Company determined that the consideration transferred represents a prepaid executory contract for access to and use of intellectual property, which is recorded as Prepaid License Rights and recognized in expense as the related benefits are consumed. The Prepaid License Rights represent the right to use intellectual property in circumstances where control of the underlying intellectual property rights did not transfer. The resulting revision in accounting conclusion was not considered material to the current period or any prior period, including the Company's quarterly unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company evaluated the nature of the transaction whereby in exchange for the $5.1 million consideration the Company received access to and use of Prepaid License Rights and other assets related to hemp-derived THC, amounting to $4.5 million and $0.6 million respectively. The Prepaid License Rights and hemp-derived THC assets are measured based on the cost of consideration exchanged and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the asset, estimated based on the expected economic benefits of the asset. The estimated useful lives of the assets range from five years to seven years with a weighted average useful life of 5.11 years. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized impairment of the hemp-derived THC assets due to the November 2025 change in legislation around hemp-derived THC products. Refer to Note 8 included elsewhere in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The remaining $4.5 million of Prepaid License Rights relates to the incredibles brand with a useful life of five years.

**Business Combinations**

***Acquisition of Assets of Señorita***

On December 12, 2024, the Company acquired certain assets from Double or Nothing, the owner and creator of the Señorita brand of hemp-derived THC drinks. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has completed its purchase price allocation for the Double or Nothing business combination. The final allocation remains unchanged from the preliminary amounts disclosed in the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Based on the information available to management, no further adjustments are expected. Accordingly, the measurement period has ended and the purchase accounting is now considered final in accordance with ASC 805.

***Convertible Notes***

On November 5, 2024, the Company issued a secured convertible note (the "November 2024 Note") to RSLGH, LLC ("RSLGH"), a subsidiary of Green Thumb, a related party. The November 2024 Note is a secured obligation of the Company and ranks senior to all indebtedness of the Company except for the May 2025 Notes and the August 2025 Notes (both as defined below), which rank on parity with the November 2024 Note. The November 2024 Note will matured on November 5, 2025 and accrued interest at a 10.0% annualized rate. The principal amount of the November 2024 Note was paid on the maturity date. The November 2024 Note provided for advances of up to $20 million in the aggregate, of which $10 million was advanced upon issuance. The November 2024 Note was amended on May 8, 2025 to issue pre-funded warrants in lieu of cash interest, with 18,614 pre-funded warrants issued on May 8, 2025 and an additional 11,373 pre-funded warrants issued on September 1, 2025, which were issued in lieu of the cash interest that would otherwise be payable under the November 2024 Note. The number of pre-funded warrants is equal to the cash interest amount otherwise payable on the November 2024 Note divided by the closing share price on May 8, 2025, the effective date of the amendment. No changes were made to the conversion price of the principal amount of the November 2024 Note. On May 22, 2025, the Company and RSLGH entered into a second amendment to the November 2024 Note, which amended the terms to, among other things, permit RSLGH to elect, subject to any required approvals under Nasdaq listing rules, to receive pre-funded warrants in lieu of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the November 2024 Note at a conversion price equal to the existing conversion price of $3.158 less the $0.001 exercise price of each pre-funded warrant. On November 3, 2025, the holder of the November 2024 Note elected to convert the outstanding principal and interest, into pre-funded warrants. The outstanding principal and accrued interest amounts of $10 million and $175 thousand respectively, resulted in the issuance of 3,167,564 and 55,433 pre-funded warrants, respectively.

On May 22, 2025, the Company issued secured convertible notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $30.0 million (collectively the "May 2025 Notes") to RSLGH and to certain other third-party accredited investors. The May 2025 Notes are secured obligations of the Company and rank senior to all indebtedness of the Company except for the August 2025 Notes, which ranks on parity with the May 2025 Notes. The May 2025 Notes will mature on November 22, 2026 and accrue interest at a 10.0% annualized rate, with interest to be paid on the first calendar day of each September and March while the May 2025 Notes are outstanding, in pre-funded warrants, beginning September 1, 2025. The principal amount of the May 2025 Notes will be payable on the maturity date. The May 2025 Notes may be converted into Common Stock or, at the election of the holder, into pre-funded warrants, with a beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH of 49.99% and a beneficial ownership limitation for other holders of 4.99%, in each case subject to applicable Nasdaq listing rules. If a holder elects to convert the May 2025 Notes into Common Stock, the conversion price per share will be $23.53, equal to the most recent closing price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market at the time the May 2025 Notes were issued, subject to customary adjustments for certain corporate events. If a holder elects to convert the May 2025 Notes into pre-funded warrants, and for interest payments payable in the form of pre-funded warrants, the conversion price per pre-funded warrant will be equal to the $23.53 conversion price less than $0.001 exercise price of the warrant. The conversion of the May 2025 Notes into Common Stock and/or pre-funded warrants is subject to certain customary conditions and, to the extent necessary, the receipt of stockholder approval under Nasdaq listing rules.

On August 25, 2025, the Company issued secured convertible notes with an aggregate original principal amount of $50.0 million (collectively the "August 2025 Notes") to RSLGH and to certain other third-party accredited investors. The August 2025 Notes are secured obligations of the Company and rank senior to all indebtedness of the Company except for the May 2025 and November 2024 Notes, which rank on parity with the August 2025 Notes. The August 2025 Notes will mature on February 25, 2027 and accrue interest at a 10.0% annualized rate, with interest to be paid on the first calendar day of each September and March, while the August 2025 Notes are outstanding beginning March 1, 2026. The principal amount of the August 2025 Notes will be payable on the maturity date. The August 2025 Notes may be converted into Common Stock or, at the election of the holder, into pre-funded warrants, with a beneficial ownership limitation for RSLGH of 49.99% and a beneficial ownership limitation for other holders of 4.99%, in each case subject to applicable Nasdaq listing rules. If a holder elects to convert the August 2025 Notes into Common Stock, the conversion price per share will be $29.475, equal to the Minimum Price as such term is defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 at the time the August 2025 Notes were issued, subject to customary adjustments for certain corporate events. If a holder elects to convert the August 2025 Notes into pre-funded warrants, and for interest payments elected to be paid in the form of pre-funded warrants, the conversion price per pre-funded warrant will be equal to the $29.475 conversion price less than $0.001 exercise price of the warrant. The conversion of the August 2025 Notes into Common Stock and/or pre-funded warrants is subject to certain customary conditions and, to the extent necessary, the receipt of stockholder approval under Nasdaq listing rules.

The May 2025 Notes and August 2025 Notes (together referred to as "the Notes") impose certain customary affirmative and negative covenants upon the Company, including covenants relating to ranking and reservation of shares. If an event of default under one or more of the Notes occurs and is not waived, the holder can elect to accelerate all or a portion of the then-outstanding principal amount of the applicable Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest, including default interest, which accrues at a rate per annum equal to 14% from the date of a default or event of default. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2025.

The Company determined the Notes do not contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC 815. Borrowings under the Notes as of December 31, 2025 totaled $72.0 million, $27.0 million of which are recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets in related party debt, current, $45.0 million of which are recorded in related party debt, net of current, and the remaining are reported in long-term debt, net of current.

Related party interest expense incurred on the Notes amounted to $4.1 million and $156 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Interest expense incurred on the Notes related to unaffiliated third parties amounted to approximately $362 thousand and $256 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, future minimum principal payments on all debt positions, excluding accrued interest amounts, were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Years ending December 31 (In thousands)** | |
| 2026 | $30621 |
| 2027 | 50000 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total future payments | $80621 |

---

**Note 11 — Leases**

The determination as to whether any arrangement contained a lease at its inception was performed based on whether or not the Company has the right to control the asset during the contract period. The lease term was determined by assuming the exercise of options that were reasonably certain to occur. Leases with an original lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not reflected in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and those lease costs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the respective term. Leases with a term greater than 12 months are reflected as non-current right-of-use assets and current and non-current lease liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no active finance leases.

Also during the year ended December 31, 2025, in connection with the discontinuation of Extraction Business, the Company subleased the assets under one of its leases, with the sublease commencement date on April 1, 2025, for $9 thousand per month. The Company recognized a sublease income of $27 thousand, within loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized an impairment of right-of-use assets of $24 thousand, within loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.

During year ended December 31, 2025, in connection with the discontinuation of Extraction Business, the Company terminated a lease early and recognized a loss on lease termination of $161 thousand, within gain on disposal of Extraction Business in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any operating leases related to continuing operations. As such, no operating lease cost, weighted average remaining lease term, or weighted average discount rate, and cash paid for operating leases are presented for continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was no future lease payments related to continuing operations.

**Note 12 — Fair Value Measures**

 ****

***Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities***

In accordance with ASC Topic 820, *Fair Value Measurement*, the Company measures fair value at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (the inputs) are based on a tiered fair value hierarchy consisting of three levels, as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2: Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or for similar markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data which require the Company to develop its own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability.

The Company has certain financial instruments which consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, contingent consideration, operating lease liabilities, long-term debt, related party debt, and warrant liabilities. Fair value information for each of these instruments as well as other balances of the Company are as follows:

● Cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

● Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for estimated credit losses, which approximates fair value.

● The carrying value of lease liabilities approximates fair value due to the implicit discount rates used in the determination of the lease liabilities being consistent with the Company's incremental borrowing rates at the time of lease inception and accounting for the duration of the leases.

● Long-term debt and related party debt, including the debt that has undergone troubled debt restructuring, is carried at amortized cost, dictated by the prevailing market interest rates at the time of each transaction in accordance with ASC Topic 470, *Debt* ("ASC 470").

● The Company's warrant liabilities are marked-to-market for each reporting period with the changes in fair value of warrant liabilities recorded in other income (expense), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations until the warrants are exercised. The fair value of the warrant liabilities are estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

● As detailed in Note 14 - Stockholders' Equity, during the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company amended Pre-Funded Warrants that had been issued to a related party such that they again became liability classified. These warrants were marked to fair value upon the execution of this amendment in August 2024. Through an additional amendment executed as of December 31, 2024, the warrants again met the requirements for equity classification and were marked to fair value at the moment of the amendment and then reclassified from liability to equity. The warrants will not be marked to fair value on a recurring basis and there were no additional amendments during the year ended December 31, 2025.

 ****

As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:

---

| | | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

**Note 13 — Warrant Liabilities**

The estimated fair value of the warrant liabilities as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Black-Scholes option-pricing model are assumptions used in calculating the estimated fair values that represent the Company's best estimate. The volatility rate is determined utilizing the Company's own share price and the share price of competitors over time.

However, inherent uncertainties are involved. If factors or assumptions change, the estimated fair values could be materially different.

The following table summarizes the Company's assumptions used in the valuations as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **December 31,<br> 2025** | **December 31,<br> 2024** |
| Stock price | $21.34 | $28.99 |
| Exercise price | $0.14 - $22440 | $0.14 - $22440 |
| Expected term (in Years) | 1.08 - 2.14 | 2.08 - 3.14 |
| Volatility | 163.0% | 171.0% |
| Discount rate - treasury yield | 3.47 -3.48% | 4.27% |

---

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Level 3 warrant liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **(In thousands, except number of outstanding warrant liabilities)** | **December 31,<br> 2025** | **December 31, <br> 2024** |
| Warrant liabilities - beginning of period | $996 | $1290 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Initial fair value of warrant liabilities |  | 5601 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Exercise of warrants |  | (3026) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Reclassification of warrant liabilities to equity |  | (20771) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Change in estimated fair value | (299) | 17902 |
| Warrant liabilities end of period | $697 | $996 |

---

As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the number of outstanding warrants subject to liability classification was 40,017, of which 15,394 are held by RSLGH, a related party.

**Note 14 — Stockholders' Equity**

**Public Offerings**

On February 27, 2024, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the "Agency Agreement") with Alexander Capital, LP ("Alexander Capital") as placement agent (the "Placement Agent"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of 184,000 shares of its Common Stock, and, in lieu of Common Stock to certain investors that so chose, Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase 264,246 shares of its Common Stock (the "S-1 Offering"). The public offering price for each share of Common Stock was $5.70, and the offering price for each Pre-Funded Warrant is $5.685, which equals the public offering price per share of the Common Stock, less the $0.015 per share exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant.

The Company issued 4,482 warrants to purchase Common Stock to Alexander Capital (the "Placement Agents Warrants"). The Placement Agents Warrants were classified as equity warrants and recorded under additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets. The Placement Agents Warrants had a five-year term and exercise price of 100% of the offering price, and were subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, and similar transactions. The Placement Agents Warrants were exercisable on a cash basis, unless there was not an effective registration statement covering the issuance of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Placement Agents Warrants or if shareholder approval for the full exercise of the Placement Agents Warrants was not received, in which case the Placement Agents Warrants would also be exercisable on a cashless exercise basis at Alexander Capital's election. The Placement Agent Warrants were exercised in full during November 2024.

The measurement of fair value of the Placement Agents Warrants was determined utilizing a Black-Scholes model considering all relevant assumptions current at the date of issuance (i.e., share price of $7.80, exercise price of $5.70, term of five years, volatility of 128%, risk-free rate of 4.32%, and expected dividend rate of 0%). The grant date fair value of these Placement Agents Warrants was estimated to be $31 thousand on February 27, 2024, and was originally recorded within additional paid-in capital. As the Placement Agents Warrants were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2024, the related amounts remain within equity as part of the total proceeds from the issuance of Common Stock.

**Related Party Warrant Issuance**

On May 21, 2024, in connection with the amendment of previously outstanding notes, the Company issued 492,204 and 525,114 Pre-Funded Warrants to GIC Acquisitions and CP (the "Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants"), respectively, in exchange of notes payable amounting approximately to $2.29 million and $11.5 million, respectively. The Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants can be used to purchase Company's Common Stock with par value of $0.001 at an exercise price of $0.015. The Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants have been identified as freestanding financial instruments and were determined not to be indexed to the Company's own stock. Accordingly, the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants are precluded from being classified within equity and classified as a liability with subsequent changes in fair value recognized each reporting period in earnings. The fair value of the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants on the issuance date was $5,600,334 determined as the intrinsic value.

On June 30, 2024, the Company executed an amendment to the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants, pursuant to which the Company revised certain provisions of the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants to (i) remove the adjustment to the exercise price of the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants when there is a bona fide equity financing with the primary purpose of raising capital (the "Adjustment Provisions") and (ii) increase the threshold for a change of control from 50% to greater than 50%. The classification of the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants was reassessed upon the modification and the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants were determined to meet all of the additional requirements for equity classification. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2024, the Company remeasured the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants to its fair value immediately prior to the modification and recognized the change in fair value of approximately $1.2 million in earnings. The Company then reclassified the Pre-Funded Warrant liability to stockholders' equity at its post-modification fair value of $6.8 million.

On August 12, 2024, the stockholders of the Company approved a proposal to amend the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants to add the Adjustment Provisions at a future date. Pursuant to that approval, on August 28, 2024, the Company entered into amendments to the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants to insert the Adjustment Provisions. This resulted in a reassessment of the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants such that they no longer met the requirements for equity classification and became classified as liabilities. They were remeasured to their fair value upon modification, resulting in a reduction in value of approximately $3.1 million. The fair value, as of August 28, 2024, of $3,723,383 was reclassified to a warrant liability. As a result of the warrant amendments and the subsequent issuance of 189,645 shares of Common Stock to Ionic at an effective purchase price of $2.109 per share of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrant held by CP Acquisitions was adjusted to 5,452,288 and the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrant held by GIC Acquisition was adjusted to 1,085,122. On August 30, 2024, CP Acquisitions partially exercised its Pre-Funded Warrant and entities affiliated with Raymond Chang and I-Tseng Jenny Chan received an aggregate of 383,127 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise.

On September 27, 2024, the Company executed an amendment to the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants to remove the Adjustment Provisions. Accordingly, the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants met the requirements for equity classification. The amendment also included a provision preventing the holders from any additional exercise of either of the Related Party Pre-Funded Warrants at any time between September 27, 2024 and October 9, 2024. They were remeasured to their fair value upon modification resulting in an increase to the fair value of $18,392,143. The fair value as of September 27, 2024 of $20,770,707 was reclassified to equity.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, 120,723 warrants were issued in lieu of cash interest payments of $1.8 million.

**Note 15 — Stock-Based Compensation** 

**2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan**

On April 29, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors, and on June 8, 2022, the Company's stockholders, adopted and approved the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "2022 Plan"), which provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation right awards, performance share awards, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, other stock-based awards and cash-based awards. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be reserved and available for grant and issuance under the 2022 Plan is 1,765 shares and 16,667 additional shares issued upon approval by the Board of Directors on January 8, 2024. On August 12, 2024, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 2022 Plan to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder by 166,667. Shares will be deemed to have been issued under the 2022 Plan solely to the extent actually issued and delivered pursuant to an award. The 2022 Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated, until the tenth anniversary of the date on which it was adopted by the Board of Directors. On June 11, 2025, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 2022 Plan to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder by 250,000 shares. As of September 30, 2025, there were 135,065 shares of Common Stock available to be granted under the Company's 2022 Plan.

The Company's stock compensation expense from continuing operations was $2.2 million and $892 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company's stock compensation expense from discontinued operations was a forfeiture of $20 thousand and $273 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 ****

***Stock Options***

As of December 31, 2025, there was no unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested options.

Stock options granted under the Company's 2022 Plan are generally non-qualified and are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model incorporates certain assumptions for inputs including a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the underlying Common Stock, expected option life, and expected volatility in the market value of the underlying Common Stock. No stock options were granted during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based upon quoted market yields for United States Treasury debt securities with a term similar to the expected term. The expected dividend yield is based upon the Company's history of having never issued a dividend and management's current expectation of future action surrounding dividends. The Company calculates the expected volatility of the stock price based on the corresponding volatility of the Company's peer group stock price for a period consistent with the underlying instrument's expected term. The expected lives for such grants were based on the simplified method for employees and directors. Forfeitures are accounted for when they occur.

The following table presents option activity under the Company's stock option plans for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

***Restricted Stock Units***

Under the 2022 Plan, the Company may grant restricted stock units to employees, directors officers, and other service providers. The restricted stock units granted generally vest equally over periods ranging from one to three years. The fair value of restricted stock units is determined based on the closing market price of the Company's Common Stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense related to the restricted stock units is recognized using a straight-line attribution method over the vesting period.

The following table presents restricted stock unit activity under the 2022 Plan for the year ended December 31, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Number of Shares** | **Weighted-<br> Average<br> Grant Date<br> Fair Value** |
| Unvested at January 1, 2024 | 143 | $3461.25 |

**Note 17 — Discontinued Operations**

**Cultivation Business Discontinued Operations**

On December 31, 2024, the Company executed and closed the Purchase Agreement with CP for the sale of assets relating to the Company's Cultivation Business. The consideration for the sale of the Cultivation Business consisted of the assumption by CP of all the Company's secured indebtedness currently held by CP with an aggregate amount of principal and accrued interest of approximately $7 million, as well as certain other liabilities related to the Cultivation Business. The sale represents efforts to strategically shift the Company's direction to focus on its hemp-related business operations. As a result, the Cultivation Business has been presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

The disposition resulted in a loss on sale of $11.9 million along with a loss from discontinued operations of $1.5 million for a total loss of $13.4 million, which was recorded in net loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations for the period ended December 31, 2024. The operating results of the Cultivation Business were reported as a net loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations through December 31, 2025, the date of disposition, and were considered material. The net loss from discontinued operations for the period ended December 31, 2024 represents the Cultivation Business' operating results from the prior year. The assets and liabilities related to the Cultivation Business have been separately classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024.

**Extraction Business Discontinued Operations**

On March 30, 2025, the Company approved the discontinuation and wind down of its legacy Extraction Business. As a result, all operations associated with the Extraction Business have ceased as of March 31, 2025, and the Company has initiated the sale or disposal of all remaining assets related to the Extraction Business. In addition, all outstanding contracts associated with the Extraction Business have been terminated in accordance with their respective terms. In connection with the discontinuation of the Extraction Business, the Company reduced its workforce by nine employees on April 1, 2025. The discontinuation of the legacy Extraction Business represents efforts to strategically shift the Company's direction to support the continued expansion of its hemp-derived products business operations. As a result, the Extraction Business has been presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

As a result of the decision to wind down the Extraction Business, a gain of approximately $3.5 million, was recorded in income from discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025. The operating results of the Extraction Business were reported as a net loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, and were considered material. The assets and liabilities related to the Extraction Business have been separately classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The assets and liabilities associated with discontinued operations consisted of the following as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively:

Carrying amounts of assets and liabilities included as part of discontinued operations:

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Realization of net deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain.

The following items comprise the Company's net deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

---

| | | |

The Company continually evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance to the extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is more likely than not. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative pre-tax income or loss in recent history, expectation of future taxable income or loss, the carryforward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors. Therefore, a full valuation allowance has been applied to deferred tax assets.

The utilization of the Company's net operating losses may be subject to a U.S. federal limitation due to the "change in ownership provisions" under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("IRC" or the "Code") and other similar limitations in various state jurisdictions. Such limitations may result in a reduction of the amount of net operating loss carryforwards in future years and possibly the expiration of certain net operating loss carryforwards before their utilization. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company completed an analysis of Ownership Changes, which had not previously been performed. The analysis identified multiple historical ownership changes that significantly limit the utilization of federal NOLs through the date of the most recent change on November 5, 2024, subjecting them to a minimal annual limitation.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was enacted, introducing significant and wide-ranging changes to the U.S. federal tax system. These changes are impactful to many areas of the tax law including but not limited to timing of the deductibility of interest expense, recovery of capital expenditures, ability to expense research and experimental expenditures, limitations on deductions for charitable contributions and a host of changes to the U.S. taxation of companies with international operations. The Company has evaluated the impacts and determined that there is no material impact on its consolidated financial statements due to its cumulative loss position and the existence of a full valuation allowance.

As of the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company has federal, and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $45.5 million, and $47.9 million respectively. Federal net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of $48.5 million have an indefinite life. Federal NOL carryforwards generated after tax year 2021 are subject to an 80% limitation on taxable income, do not expire and will carryforward indefinitely. State net operating loss carryforwards in the amount of $44.8 million begin expiring in 2039 and approximately $3.1 million have an indefinite life.

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 examinations by federal, foreign, and state and local jurisdictions, where applicable. There are currently no pending tax examinations. The Company's tax years are still open under statute from 2022 to the present in the U.S. To the extent the Company has tax attribute carryforwards, the tax years in which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state and local tax authorities to the extent utilized in a future period.

The Company is also subject to certain non-income taxes such as value added taxes, sales taxes, and property taxes. The Company has taken certain positions that management feels, although not free from doubt, should not result in a successful challenge by certain tax authorities.

As required by the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, Income Tax the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company applied the uncertain tax position guidance in ASC 740, Accounting for Income to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. Any estimates of tax contingencies contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be included as part of the income tax provision.

Our unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2025 relate entirely to research and development tax credits. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2025 is $1,100. If recognized, none of the unrecognized tax benefits would impact our effective tax rate. The following table summarizes the activity related to our unrecognized tax benefits (in thousands):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | **Year ended<br> December 31,<br> 2025** |
| Unrecognized benefit – beginning of period | $1191 |
| Prior period tax position increases (decreases) | $- |
| Current period tax position increases (decreases) | $(91) |
| Unrecognized benefit – end of period | $1100 |

---

Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes as components of interest expense and other expense, respectively. We incurred no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024. We do not anticipate any significant changes in our uncertain tax positions within twelve months of this reporting date.

**Note 20 — Net Loss Per Share**

Net loss per share calculations for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been adjusted to reflect the Company's reverse stock split. Net loss per share was calculated based on the weighted-average number of the Company's Common Stock outstanding.

Basic net loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the periods. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of Common Stock, including convertible notes, outstanding stock options, stock related to unvested restricted stock units, and outstanding warrants to the extent dilutive. Net loss per share, assuming dilution, is equal to basic net loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 because the effect of dilutive securities outstanding during the periods, including convertible notes, options, restricted stock units and warrants computed using the treasury stock method, is anti-dilutive.

The components of basic and diluted net loss per share were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |
| <br>**(In thousands, except share and per share data)** | **2025** | **2024** |
| **Numerator:** |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net loss from continuing operations before taxes | $(34740) | $(23229) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Net (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes | 1483 | (18517) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Numerator for basic EPS - Net Loss | $(33257) | $(41746) |
| **Denominator:** |  |  |
| Denominator for basic EPS - Weighted-average common shares outstanding | 1993947 | 1020185 |
| Net loss per share – basic and diluted | $(16.68) | $(40.92) |

---

The Company's potential dilutive securities, which include stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants, and convertible notes, have been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per share. The Convertible Notes outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, were also excluded from the computation of diluted net (loss) per share as they do not represent common stock equivalents unless and until conversion conditions are met. The weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Common Stockholders is the same. The Company excluded the following potential Common Stock equivalents presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Year Ended December 31,** | **Year Ended December 31,** |
|  | **2025** | **2024** |
| Shares subject to outstanding warrants | 10892112 | 7576573 |
| Shares subject to unvested restricted stock units | 126750 | 102867 |
| Shares subject to outstanding stock options | 75 | 210 |
| Total shares subject to potential common stock equivalents. | 11018937 | 7679650 |

Under the Services Agreement, VMS will provide certain administrative, supply chain, operations management, sales and marketing, and technical services to the Company and its subsidiaries. As consideration for those services, the Company pays VMS service fees equal to (i) 125% of the costs incurred by VMS in connection with any services provided by non-dedicated personnel and (ii) 100% of such costs incurred by VMS in connection with services provided by dedicated personnel and any third-party costs incurred in connection with the services. The service fees are payable in cash or, upon mutual agreement of the Company and VMS and to the extent permitted under applicable Nasdaq listing rules, in Common Stock or in pre-funded warrants, with the value per share of Common Stock or pre-funded warrant being equal to $26.68, the most recent closing price of the Company's Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market as of the time the Services Agreement was executed. The maximum cost for services provided by non-dedicated personnel during the one-year term of the Services Agreement may not exceed $3.0 million unless the parties otherwise agree in writing.

On March 21, 2025, we entered into a Shared Services Agreement (the "CFO Services Agreement") with VMS, pursuant to which Brad Asher provides his services as Chief Financial Officer. As consideration for those services, we pay VMS a monthly fee based on its direct costs in providing such services, with a maximum of $72,552 per month.

**Note 22 — Segment Reporting**

The Company has determined that it operates as a single operating and reporting segment in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. This is due to the key decisions and allocation of resources happening in a centralized manner based on the review of the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), Benjamin Kovler, the Company's Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer, of Operating income from continuing operations of the Company. This profit measure is presented in the consolidated statements of operations and the disaggregation of sales from hemp-derived THC products (non-licensing) and Licensing Revenue is presented in Note 18 – Revenue. There are no significant expenses associated with the Licensing Revenue and the CODM does not review expense allocations, amortization expense or specific assets when reviewing Licensing Revenue.

**Note 23 — Commitments and Contingencies**

**Legal Matters**

From time to time, the Company may become involved in material legal proceedings or be subject to claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

***Bud & Mary's Litigation***

On September 15, 2022, the Company provided a notice of default to Bud & Mary's Cultivation, Inc. ("Bud & Mary's) and certain related parties notifying such parties that Bud & Mary's was in default of its obligations under the TTK solution between the Company and Bud & Mary (the "Bud & Mary TTK Agreement"). On October 5, 2022, Bud & Mary's filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Massachusetts in Suffolk County, naming the Company as the defendant (the "Bud & Mary Complaint"). Bud & Mary's is seeking, among other relief, monetary damages in connection with alleged unfair or deceptive trade practices, breach of contract and conversion arising from the Bud & Mary TTK Agreement. While the Company believes the claim is without merit and will continue to vigorously defend itself against Bud & Mary's allegations, litigation is inherently unpredictable and there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in this matter. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company deemed it necessary to fully reserve for the outstanding $14.7 million note receivable balance due to the current litigation and the uncertainty of the customer's ability to repay the balance. As of December 31, 2024, the allowance related to Bud & Mary's was reduced to $14.4 million, reflecting a recovery of allowance for credit losses resulting from a loan repayment of $330 thousand that was previously included in the allowance. The $14.4 million represents the amount of the contingent loss that the Company has determined to be reasonably possible and estimable. The actual cost of resolving this matter may be higher or lower than the amount the Company has reserved. If the Company is unable to realize revenue from its TTK Solution offerings on a timely basis or at all, or if it incurs an additional loss as a result of the Bud& Mary's claim, the Company's business and financial performance will be adversely affected. On November 14, 2022, the Company filed its answers and affirmative defenses to the Bud & Mary Complaint and counterclaims. The Company is seeking, among other relief, monetary damages in connection with the breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unjust enrichment, and enforcement of the guarantees. This matter is still actively ongoing. This matter is subject to the Cultivation sale escrow litigation reserve agreement where the Company funded $1.5 million in January 2025 into escrow for the benefit of settling this and other claims.

***Bowdoin Construction Corp. Litigation***

On February 22, 2023, Bowdoin Construction Corp. ("Bowdoin") filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Massachusetts in Norfolk County, Massachusetts (the "Bowdoin Complaint"), naming the Company, Bud & Mary's and certain related parties as defendants, captioned Bowdoin Construction Corp. v. Agrify Corporation, Bud & Mary's Cultivation, Inc. and BMLC2, LLC, case no. 2382CV00173. The Bowdoin Complaint relates to a construction contract between Bowdoin and the Company relating to the property that is the subject of the Bud & Mary's Complaint, and alleges breach of contract by Bud & Mary's and by the Company due to nonpayment of approximately $7.0 million due under the contract and related indemnification claims and mechanics' liens. $6.3 million is included in accounts payable and $700 thousand is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Two of Bowdoin's subcontractors, Hannon Electric, Inc. and Electric Supply Center Corp, have filed separate suits against the Company in the amount of $1.498 million and $93 thousand, respectively. These amounts are part of the $7.0 million claimed in Bowdoin's Complaint. The Bowdoin suit and the subcontractor suits have been consolidated. The Company has denied liability in all such suits. This matter is subject to the sale of the Cultivation Business escrow litigation reserve agreement where the Company funded $1.5 million in January 2025 into escrow for the benefit of settling this and other claims.

***McCutchan, Inc.***

In December 2021, the Company entered into a standard form of agreement between owner and contractor whereby Valiant Group LLC ("Valiant") is the general contractor for tenant improvements on certain real property located in Bellevue, Washington (the "Project"). McCutchan, Inc. ("McCutchan") agreed to be a subcontractor on the Project and engaged various other subcontractors (the "Valiant Agreement"). The Company terminated Valiant as the general contractor for, among other allegations, breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Following the termination of Valiant, in October 2022, the Valiant Agreement was assigned and accepted (the "Assignment") to Agxion, LLC, a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company. The Assignment contemplates that, as a subcontractor to the Valiant Agreement, McCutchan is still bound to the subcontract agreement and will continue construction operations on the Project. The Company is pursuing Valiant in a separate litigation to collect no less than approximately $1.4 million alleging overbilling, breach of the Valiant Agreement, and violation of Chapter 18.27 and 19.86 of the Revised Code of Washington. On March 5, 2024, McCutchan filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Washington for King County naming the Company, Valiant, and certain related parties as defendants. In the complaint, McCutchan asserts two causes of action against the Company: (1) breach of contract, (2) voidable contract, (3) interference with business or economic expectancy, (4) unjust enrichment, and (5) defamation. McCutchan's claims are based on allegations of misrepresentations made by the Company to pay McCutchan for work completed on the Project as well as a failure to pay under the Valiant Agreement. In the alternative, McCutchan is alleging the Assignment is void and not a valid contract. McCutchan is seeking to collect no less than $3 million against the Company and all other named defendants. This matter is subject to the Cultivation sale escrow litigation reserve agreement where the Company funded $1.5 million in January 2025 into escrow for the benefit of settling this and other claims.

***Labor Law Dispute***

On February 9, 2022, a former sales Vice President of the Company filed suit against the Company claiming he is owed back wages, commission and is entitled to equity in the company, under theories of liability under Massachusetts labor laws including retaliation, breach of contract, breach of covenant of good faith and fair dealing, fraudulent inducement, tortious interference and unjust enrichment. The Company filed its answer to the initial complaint in January 2023. In November 2025, the parties reached a settlement prior to trial resolving the dispute in the amount of $887 thousand, recorded within general and administrative expense within the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025.

***Assets Subject to Contingent Repurchase Rights***

 **

Under the MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements, Green Thumb or its affiliates may repurchase some or all of the MC Brands and/or VCP assets within five years of the respective transaction dates upon the occurrence of specified eligibility conditions, all of which are outside the control of both the Company and Green Thumb.

The 2026 Appropriations Act includes an amendment to the definition of hemp under the 2018 Farm Bill that, if implemented as enacted, could materially restrict the commercialization of certain hemp-derived THC products beginning 365 days after enactment. If the amendment becomes effective in its current form and is not repealed, replaced, or otherwise modified prior to its effective date, one of the eligibility conditions under the MC Brands and VCP purchase agreements that could permit the repurchase right to become exercisable would be satisfied. However, the exercise of the repurchase option would remain solely within the discretion of Green Thumb or its affiliates.

If the relevant taxing authorities successfully pursue these claims, the Company could be subject to additional tax liabilities.

**Note 24 — Subsequent Events**

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the audited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and concluded that there were no subsequent events that required recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

**rYTHM, iNC.**

**POLICY ON INSIDER TRADING**

Adopted Effective: May 8, 2025

The Board of Directors (the "**Board**") of RYTHM, Inc., (f/k/a Agrify Corporation) (referred to herein, inclusive of its subsidiaries and affiliates, as the "**Company**") has adopted this policy (this "**Policy**") concerning the rules and procedures governing transactions in Securities (as defined below) by Covered Persons (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Definitions** 

"**Company**" shall have the meaning provided above.

"**Covered Person**" means all employees, officers, directors, agents, contractors, vendors and service providers of the Company and the Related Persons of each such individual. In addition, individuals outside of the Company can become temporary "insiders" who are treated as Covered Persons by having a special confidential relationship with the Company resulting in access to Material Nonpublic Information.

"**Designated Insider**" shall have the meaning set forth in Section G below.

"**Material Nonpublic Information**" also referred to as "**Inside Information**" has the meaning set forth in Section D below.

"**Related Person**" means, with reference to any person, (i) that person's immediate family members, (ii) any person living in that person's household, and (iii) any such person may own or control.

"**Securities**" means the equity securities (including, without limitation, common stock) or debt securities, warrants, options, or preferred stock, of, or derivative securities relating to, a company.

"**Tipping**" means sharing Material Nonpublic Information with a third party, whether or not for compensation or an expectation of profit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Purpose and Administration** 

The Company's reputation for integrity and high ethical standards in the conduct of its affairs is of paramount importance. To preserve this reputation, it is essential that when transacting in Securities, all Covered Persons conform to all applicable laws, including U.S. securities laws, and that they avoid even the appearance of impropriety. All Covered Persons must familiarize themselves with this Policy and abide by it. Insider trading is strictly regulated by the corporate and securities laws in the United States, as well as any stock exchange on which the Securities of the Company are listed. Violations of this Policy may result in civil and criminal penalties under applicable securities laws and disciplinary action by the Company up to and including termination of employment or service.

The obligations of the Company's General Counsel (or if such role is vacant, the applicable person fulfilling such responsibilities) hereunder may be delegated by the General Counsel to such other member(s) of the Legal Department or outside counsel or legal advisors as the General Counsel may determine from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** **Prohibition Against "Insider" Trading and Tipping – *Applies to all Covered Persons*** 

Covered Persons may not, directly or indirectly, purchase or sell Securities of the Company while in possession of Material Nonpublic Information concerning the Company. Similarly, Covered Persons may not trade in the Securities of another company if they have obtained Material Nonpublic Information about that company in the course of or in connection with the Covered Person's employment by or other service to the Company. In addition, Covered Persons are strictly prohibited from Tipping any other person or giving Material Nonpublic Information to another person.

Covered Persons are reminded that they may come into possession of Material Nonpublic Information in the ordinary course of their employment with or other service to the Company. "Other service" may include the provision of services through a consulting or contracting relationship, such as a shared services or similar agreement. Information that is not considered material to the Company may nevertheless be material to one of those other companies, and it is not permissible for Covered Persons to make use of Material Nonpublic Information gained in the course of their service to or employment with the Company for any reason outside of their scope of responsibilities to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **What Is "Material Nonpublic Information"?** 

"**Material Nonpublic Information**" or "**Inside Information**" is information that is both *material* and *nonpublic*. Whether information is *material* is difficult to evaluate in the abstract and typically is assessed with the benefit of hindsight. There always is information about the Company that is generally not known to the public. This information is "material" if it would likely to affect the stock price of the Company, or if a reasonable investor would consider it important in making an investment decision (*i.e.,* whether to buy, hold, or sell Securities).

Examples of information, which if not publicly known, could be "Material Nonpublic Information" or "Inside Information" include:

● changes in share ownership that may affect control of the Company;

● material acquisitions or dispositions by the Company;

● proposed changes in corporate structure including amalgamations and reorganizations proposed acquisitions of other companies (including take-over bids or mergers or material assets of such companies);

● financial results and other earnings information, or information that would have an impact on financial results or earnings (such as unanticipated write-downs or gains and operating losses or gains);

● major labor disputes or disputes with major contractors or suppliers;

● financial forecasts and plans, or material changes or expected material changes to financial forecasts or results;

● major personnel or management changes;

● changes in capital structure including stock splits and stock dividends, or changes in our capital investment plans or corporate objectives;

● a major lawsuit, criminal indictment or governmental investigation;

● development of a significant new product or process;

● significant labor disputes or disputes with major contractors or suppliers;

● a change in auditor, substantial changes in accounting methodologies or auditor notification that an issuer may no longer rely on an audit report;

● borrowing or receiving loans for a material amount of money or obtaining significant debt financing; a public or private sale of a material number of additional securities

● material changes or developments in products or contracts which could materially affect earnings upwards or downwards of the Company or its subsidiaries; and

● knowledge of material cybersecurity risks or incidents.

Material information about the Company should be considered *nonpublic* unless there is a certainty that it is publicly available. For example, Covered Persons should assume that the information is **<u>not</u>** public unless the information has been disclosed in a public filing by the Company (such as a report filed on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q or Form 8-K) made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("**SEC**") or in materials provided to the Company's shareholders (such as an annual report, investor letter, prospectus or proxy statement), or is available from the Company through a newswire service or daily newspaper of wide circulation, **<u>AND</u>** a sufficient amount of time has passed (generally, at least one full trading day on the Company's primary securities exchange) so that the marketplace has had an opportunity to digest the information. Information about the Company and its Securities will continue to be considered nonpublic even if some information, such as rumors, speculation or similar reports from sources outside of the Company are the only source of publicity.

If you have questions or want clarification on whether particular information is *material* or *nonpublic,* please contact the General Counsel of the Company, its Chief Counsel – Securities & Governance or other designee of the General Counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. **The Exercise of Stock Options** 

This Policy applies to any sale of stock as part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option, the sale of Securities delivered to the option holder as a result of a "withhold to cover" transaction, or any other market transaction. However, this Policy does not apply to the exercise of options granted under the Company's employee share and incentive plan, or to the exercise of a tax withholding right, under a "withhold to cover" method for the exercise of the applicable option, ***<u>where that transaction does not involve the sale of securities on the open market, such as through a broker-assisted transaction</u>***.

Please contact the Office of the General Counsel or the General Counsel's designee if you have questions about whether it is possible to exercise options outside of the application of this Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F. **Additional Prohibited Transactions** 

There should be no trading in any interest or position relating to the future price of the Company's Securities, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) <u>Short Sales</u>. Short sales of the Company's Securities evidence an expectation on the part
of the Covered Person that the Securities will decline in value, and therefore signal to the market that the Covered Person has no confidence
in the Company or its short-term prospects. In addition, short sales may reduce the Covered Person's incentive to improve the Company's
performance. For these reasons, short sales of the Company's Securities are prohibited. In addition, Section 16(c) of the U.S. Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "**Exchange Act** "), prohibits directors and executive officers from engaging in
short sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) <u>Publicly Traded Put or Call Options</u>. A transaction in publicly traded put or call options is, in
effect, a bet on the short-term movement of the Company's Securities and therefore creates the appearance that the Covered Person
is trading based on inside information. Transactions in options also may focus the Covered Person's attention on short-term performance
at the expense of the Company's long-term objectives. Accordingly, transactions in puts, calls or other derivative Securities of
the Company, on an exchange or in any other organized market, are prohibited. This Section F(2) shall not be construed to apply to exercises
of stock options granted by the Company pursuant to a share incentive plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) <u>Hedging Transactions</u>. Certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions allow the Covered Person
to lock in much of the value of his or her stock holdings, often in exchange for all or part of the potential for upside appreciation
in the stock. These transactions allow the Covered Person to continue to own the covered Securities, but without the full risks and rewards
of ownership. When that occurs, the Covered Person may no longer have the same objectives as the Company's other stockholders. Therefore,
Covered Persons are prohibited from purchasing financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars
and exchange funds), or otherwise engaging in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in
the market value of the Company's Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) <u>Margin Accounts and Pledges</u>. No Covered Person may use the Company's Securities to support
a margin debt or pledge the Company's Securities at any time when the Covered Person is in possession of inside information or otherwise
is not permitted to trade in the Securities of the Company, except for a margin loan with a registered broker-dealer that complies with
the applicable margin rules.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;G. **Designated Insiders** 

All Covered Persons must limit transactions in the Company's Securities to periods when they can reasonably be satisfied that there are no pending material nonpublic developments that might have a bearing on the market price of such Securities. In addition to this general probation that applies to all Covered Persons, additional restrictions apply on certain Company insiders who routinely have access to Material Nonpublic Information, specifically including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) all directors of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) all Executive Officers (as determined by the Board from time to time) of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) all persons having access to the Company's significant, unreported, consolidated financial information
through the Company's financial and accounting systems or otherwise, including by way of a contractor, consulting or similar service
arrangement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) other management personnel, or contractors, consultants or similar service providers providing management
services, having access to the Company's financial results and projections or regular access to other potentially material information;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) any executive assistant or other person with access to any of the above persons' sensitive files,
such as email.

(collectively referred to as the "**Designated Insiders**"). A current list of the Designated Insiders shall be maintained by the Chief Financial Officer or that person's designee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;H. **Regular Trading Blackout Periods** 

Purchases and sales of Securities of the Company by Designated Insiders, and each Designated Insider's Related Persons, will not be permitted at the following times, when Material Nonpublic Information is deemed reasonably likely to exist:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) During the period beginning on the first trading day after the end of each fiscal quarter and ending after
the first full trading day following the release of the Company's earnings result for that period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) In the event the Company issues interim earnings guidance or other potentially material information by
way of press release, SEC filing or other means designed to achieve widespread dissemination of the information, Designated Insiders and
Related Persons will be blacked out while the Company is in the process of assembling the information to be released and ending after
the first full trading day following the release of such information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Such other periods as to which Designated Insiders will be specifically advised.

*Hardship Exceptions.* Designated Insiders in limited, special circumstances, including an unexpected and urgent need to sell Company Securities in order to generate cash, may, in appropriate circumstances, be permitted to sell Company stock even during the blackout period. Hardship exceptions may be granted only by the Chief Executive Officer and must be requested at least two (2) business days in advance of the proposed trade. Under no circumstances will a hardship exception be granted to a Covered Person who possesses Material Nonpublic Information. Please contact the Chief Financial Officer for more information.

 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I. **Event-Specific Blackout Periods** 

From time to time, an event may occur that is material to the Company and is known by only a few directors, executives or employees. So long as the event remains material and non-public, directors, executive officers, and such other persons as are designated by the Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Financial Officer's designee may not trade in the Company's Securities (an "**Event-Specific Blackout**"). The existence of an Event-Specific Blackout will not be announced, other than to those who are aware of the event giving rise to the blackout. If, however, a person whose trades are subject to the prior notice procedures described below desires to trade in the Company's Securities during an Event-Specific Blackout, the Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Financial Officer's designee will inform the requestor of the existence of a blackout period without disclosing the reason for the blackout. Any person made aware of the existence of an Event-Specific Blackout must not disclose the existence of the blackout to any other person. Covered Persons are prohibited from trading while in possession of Material Nonpublic Information, regardless of whether they have been designated by the Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Financial Officer's designee as being subject to an Event-Specific Blackout.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in transactions or other events with other publicly traded companies, and the transaction, while not material to the Company, may be material to the counterparty(ies). In such an event, the Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Financial Officer's designee may impose an Event-Specific Blackout period on the Covered Persons involved with this event or transaction solely with respect to that other company(ies) by notice to the affected Covered Persons.

Note that the mere existence of a blackout period may be considered Material Nonpublic Information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;J. **Pre-Clearance Procedures** 

To help prevent inadvertent violations of applicable securities laws and to avoid even the appearance of trading while in possession of Material Nonpublic Information, all individuals subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (*i.e.*, Directors and Section 16 Executive Officers), and others as designated by the General Counsel of the Company from time to time, (collectively, the "**Pre-Clearance Group**") may not engage in any transaction in the Company's Securities (including a gift, contribution to a trust, or similar transfer) without first providing the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer or their designees (together, the "**Pre-Clearance Officers**") with at least 48 hours prior notice of the proposed transaction and receiving pre-clearance to proceed. The Pre-Clearance Officers. The Pre-Clearance Officers will determine whether the transaction may proceed and if so, assist in complying with the SEC reporting requirements, as applicable. The Chief Financial Officer or the designee thereof will maintain a list of the members of the Pre-Clearance Group and notify such individuals of their Pre-Clearance obligations. Pre-clearance shall be granted for a reasonable, limited period, generally no longer than five trading days from the date pre-clearance is granted. Pre-clearance may be requested again during an open trading window if the transaction is not completed within the applicable pre-clearance period.

These pre-clearance procedures apply to trades by partnerships, trusts, corporations, brokerage accounts or other vehicles over which members of the Pre-Clearance Group have investment control or influence, as well as the Related Persons of any member of the Pre-Clearance group. The Pre-Clearance Officers have the right to prohibit any trade for which pre-clearance is required.

*Transactions under Company Plans*. The pre-clearance procedures described above also apply to certain transactions under the Company's employee stock purchase and incentive plans. The pre-clearance procedures do not apply to mandatory sell-to-cover transactions to satisfy tax withholding requirements which are not initiated by the holder of such Securities, but do apply, however, to any sale of stock as part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an option, or any other market sale for the purposes of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price of an award. Pre-clearance must be in writing (which may be via e-mail or other electronic communication).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;K. **Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans** 

Designated Insiders and/or members of the Pre-Clearance Group may establish a trading plan under SEC Rule 10b5-1 only after first obtaining written pre-clearance for the plan from the General Counsel or the General Counsel's designee. To obtain pre-clearance, a proposed Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Be in writing in form and substance acceptable to the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Comply with all applicable rules set forth by the SEC rules and regulations, and contain all terms required
thereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Be entered into only during a period in which the Covered Person is not subject to a blackout period or
is otherwise aware of Material Nonpublic Information

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Require additional pre-clearance for any amendment, termination, or replacement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**L.** **Post-Termination Transactions** 

If, upon the termination of a Covered Person's service as a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company, the Covered Person possesses Material Nonpublic Information, unless otherwise pre-cleared by the Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Financial Officer's designee, such Covered Person may not trade in the Company's Securities until that information has become public or is no longer material. In all other respects, the procedures set forth in this Policy will cease to apply to the terminated Covered Person's transactions in Company Securities upon the expiration of any applicable blackout period in effect at the time of the termination of service.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**M.** **Assistance** 

If you have any questions about this Policy or its application to any proposed transaction, you may obtain additional guidance from the Chief Financial Officer or such person's designee.
