**Charlotte's Web Reports Q3 2025 Results**

*Healthcare Focus, Product Innovation, and Cost Improvements* 

**Louisville, Colo. November 12, 2025** – (TSX: CWEB, OTC: CWBHF), Charlotte's Web Holdings, Inc. ("Charlotte's Web" or the "Company"), a botanical wellness innovation company and the market leader in cannabidiol (CBD) <u>hemp extract wellness products</u>, today announced results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.

*"Q3 2025 marked continued progress in our strategic transformation as we adgvanced key operational and commercial initiatives that position us for improved performance in 2026,"* said **Bill Morachnick, Chief Executive Officer**. *"We continue to build on our success in the medical channel and have recently launched a scientific advisory board to support our efforts with continuing medical education, and accelerate clinical validation and healthcare integration. In manufacturing, we completed the internalization of Brightside™ gummy production, achieving multi-million-unit manufacturing capacity that enhances our innovation velocity and cost structure. Our expanded sleep portfolio—now featuring five products across Charlotte's Web and Brightside™ brands—is resonating with consumers, with our CBN Stay Sleep Gummies now our second-best-selling gummy product. The promising early performance of our new Brightside hemp-derived delta-9 products, combined with some positive regulatory signals from Washington, reinforces our confidence in the substantial opportunities ahead as we execute our plans in 2026."*

*"Our disciplined cost management and channel optimization continue to reshape Charlotte's Web's financial profile,"* said **Erika Lind, Chief Financial Officer**. "*Third quarter SG&A expenses declined 23.6% year-over-year, and the additional expense reductions implemented during Q3 position us to deliver approximately $9 million in total annualized cost savings in 2026. These structural improvements provide an encouraging roadmap for 2026.*"

**<u>Third Quarter Business Review</u>**

**Operational and Manufacturing Improvements**

Charlotte's Web has achieved full internalization of Brightside™ hemp-derived THC gummy production, providing multi-million-unit capacity and improved long-term cost absorption. Vertical integration has accelerated innovation cycles and strengthened quality control. Charlotte's Web is evaluating the transition of additional product categories to in-house manufacturing in 2026 to further leverage these efficiencies.

**Cost Structure Optimization**

Comprehensive efficiency initiatives launched in 2024 continued to yield results in 2025. Additional expense reductions implemented in Q3 2025—combined with manufacturing savings—are expected to reduce annualized operating costs by approximately $9 million in 2026, supporting the Company's trajectory toward positive cash flow.

------

**Scientific Advisory Board Launch**

During the quarter, Charlotte's Web announced the formation of a Scientific Advisory Board to accelerate the Company's medical channel strategy and reinforce its legacy of science-backed innovation. Led by Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Marcel Bonn-Miller—the world-renowned cannabinoid researcher with over 20 years of experience and approximately 200 published research papers—this Board will guide Charlotte's Web's research and development agenda, shape clinical initiatives, and help translate botanical science into impactful, patient-centered solutions.

This initiative strengthens Charlotte's Web's positioning in the medical practitioner channel, where the Company plans to develop Continuing Medical Education (CME) content for healthcare professionals and expand practitioner-informed product solutions for managing health issues. This medical strategy directly supports a restructuring of the Company's B2B retail operations, pivoting from direct retail distribution to margin-accretive, clinically-validated channels where scientific credibility enhances competitive differentiation.

**B2B Channel Transition** 

During Q3, Charlotte's Web implemented a strategic restructuring of its B2B retail operations in response to an increasingly complex and evolving regulatory landscape across U.S. markets. State-by-state legislative developments have created varying compliance requirements. In response, the Company significantly reduced its direct sales force and accrued a reserve of approximately $0.5M to revenue against possible customer chargebacks from unsaleable product that could result from this shift. This reserve impacts the quarter in which it is taken, and is not expected to impact future revenue and margin recognition. This leaner, more efficient approach prioritizes top revenue-generating customers and distributor relationships, while simultaneously building infrastructure to support medical practitioners with clinical education and evidence-based product guidance. The transition aims to reduce lower-margin B2B retail sales to improve profitability and increase margin contribution from the medical and practitioner channels. This restructuring better positions Charlotte's Web's B2B operations for more profitable revenue growth by improving the weighting impact of higher-margin channels overall.

**Product Innovation and Portfolio Expansion**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Brightside™ Hemp Precision Delta-9 Gummies:** This new product line experienced encouraging demand and sales traction in Q3. Proprietary TiME INFUSION® technology enables rapid onset within 5–15 minutes, on average. Controlled, quality low-dose hemp THC differentiates from problematic intoxicating products flooding unregulated markets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Sleep Category Expansion:** Charlotte's Web continued to expand its botanical wellness portfolio within the sleep support category, building on the success of the Company's CBN Stay Sleep Gummies—now its second-best-selling gummy product. A comprehensive sleep campaign was launched featuring five products across the Charlotte's Web and Brightside™ brands. The new Brightside *Knockout* THC gummy launched in October, and *Quiet Sleep* functional mushroom gummy showed promising consumer uptake, broadening the Company's leadership in natural sleep solutions. Knockout combines hemp-derived THC with CBN in a balanced ratio to support both falling asleep and staying asleep throughout the night, resulting in rapid consumer uptake and strong product velocity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **CBG Focus & Attention Gummies:** The Company has entered the growing nootropics segment, expanding Charlotte's Web's reach into cognitive wellness and diversifying revenue beyond traditional CBD with a plant-based alternative to synthetic nootropics.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Functional Mushroom Portfolio:** Introduced in late 2024, the line continues to gain traction through omnichannel platforms, diversifying the Company's botanical wellness ecosystem beyond cannabinoids.

*"Our diversified portfolio—including low-dose hemp-derived THC, functional mushrooms, and cannabinoid innovations—positions us to capture emerging demand while remaining true to our heritage of science, quality, and compliance,"* added **Mr. Morachnick**.

**Regulatory and Industry Developments**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Federal Legislative Developments:** The U.S. Senate recently passed the continuing resolution ("CR") to reopen the government. This included the 2026 Agriculture-FDA spending bill where new language limiting total THC content in hemp-derived cannabinoid products was introduced. If the minibus passes the House and is signed by the President, the restrictive hemp language does not go into effect until 365 days after enactment. This affords the Company, the industry and policy makers time to evaluate the framework and for potential legislative remedies, regulatory clarifications, and further stakeholder engagement. Multiple legislative and regulatory pathways are open and Charlotte's Web is actively engaged with bipartisan Congressional champions, consumer advocacy groups, and industry coalitions to support a balanced and science-based regulatory framework that preserves access to non-intoxicating hemp wellness products relied on by millions of Americans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Federal Momentum and Political Signals:** Language in the funding bill is at odds with recent bipartisan support for CBD. Notably on September 28, 2025, a White House social media post highlighted support for CBD as a wellness supplement potentially eligible for Medicare coverage. While public statements and social media signals do not guarantee policy outcomes, they underscore political awareness of the sector's scale, consumer relevance, and economic contribution The Company believes rational regulatory policies that distinguish between intoxicating and non-intoxicating cannabinoids are achievable and that engagement over the coming months will shape the final outcome.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **State-Level Restrictions:** Some state-level restrictions this year impacted retail access in select markets. In response, the Company has restructured a leaner and more resilient B2B distribution strategy, focusing on high-margin accounts and reducing operating expenses. While these actions may lead to marginally lower B2B revenue in select states in the near term, they are expected to improve long-term margin contribution and operational efficiency.

*"While recent federal activity introduces uncertainty for the industry, Charlotte's Web has a proven track record of navigating complex regulatory environments,"* said **Mr. Morachnick**. *"We believe the economic impact, consumer reliance, and bipartisan support for CBD wellness will lead to a more rational and durable policy outcome."*

**DeFloria IND Phase 2 Clinical Trial Progress** DeFloria, Inc., a collaboration between Charlotte's Web, Ajna BioSciences, and with initial funding from a division of British American Tobacco, has been cleared for FDA Phase 2 clinical trials for its investigational botanical drug ("IND") to treat irritability associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Charlotte's Web retains exclusive manufacturing rights for commercial supply, representing a potential long-term revenue opportunity in the multi-billion-dollar ASD treatment market.

*"Our partnership with Ajna and BAT demonstrates our leadership in advancing hemp-derived compounds from consumer wellness into FDA-regulated pharmaceutical development,"* said **Mr. Morachnick.**

---

Consolidated net revenue for Q3 2025 was $11.5 million, a year-over-year decrease of 8.6% from $12.6 million in Q3 2024, primarily reflecting a strategic B2B business model transformation. During Q3, Charlotte's Web implemented a fundamental redesign of its B2B channel economics. This restructuring prioritizes high-value retail partnerships and leverages distributor relationships for broader market coverage, eliminating the cost structure associated with maintaining a field sales organization. While this transition creates near-term revenue pressure, it fundamentally improves channel profitability by reducing SG&A expenses and capturing higher-margin distributor economics. Management expects this leaner, more capital-efficient B2B model to contribute to

------

improved overall profitability despite modestly lower B2B revenue going forward. Despite these headwinds, consumer demand remained healthy for Charlotte's Web's diversified botanical wellness portfolio. Direct-to-consumer channels showed resilience, and new product innovations—particularly the Brightside™ hemp-derived THC collection and the expanded sleep category portfolio—continue to gain market traction and drive engagement across omnichannel platforms.

Gross profit was $4.5 million, or 38.9% of revenue in Q3 2025, compared to $6.7 million, or 53% of revenue in Q3 2024. Gross margin compression resulted from a one-time $0.5 million B2B retail chargeback reserve to revenue related to the B2B transition, and higher COGS due to temporary scaling inefficiencies associated with the transition to in-house manufacturing operations. Excluding these Q3 items, the underlying gross profit model remains aligned with the Company's historical 50% range. Initial in-house gummy production in Q3 represented a limited portion of total gummy sales and fixed manufacturing costs were under-absorbed. As production scales through 2026—targeting approximately 75% of total gummy sales volume over time—fixed cost absorption and gross margin are expected to improve. The Company expects improved fixed cost absorption and approximately $3 million in annualized manufacturing cost savings, while enhancing quality control and supply chain resilience. Management anticipates gross margin to rebound to historical range in Q4 2025 as in-house production scales.

Total selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $9.7 million for the quarter, a 23.3% improvement from $12.7 million in Q3 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.8 million reduction in amortization expense related to the termination of the MLB Promotional Rights Agreement in early 2025, and to a decrease in personnel costs between the comparable periods. This performance demonstrates the effectiveness of the comprehensive cost-optimization strategy initiated to better align operating expenses with revenue. As part of the Company's ongoing commitment to disciplined cost management and operational efficiency, Charlotte's Web implemented additional expense reduction measures during Q3. Including cost savings from in-house manufacturing, these initiatives are expected to reduce the Company's annualized costs by approximately $9 million in 2026, supporting Charlotte's Web's trajectory toward positive cash flow. Total net loss for Q3 2025 was $5.9 million, or $(0.04) per share, unchanged versus a net loss of $5.8 million, or $(0.04) per share, in Q3 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $(2.1) million, versus $(3.9) million in Q3 2024, supporting continued progress toward profitability.

**Financial Position**

Cash and working capital as of September 30, 2025, were $9.8 million and $25.6 million, respectively. With a significantly lower operating expense base, anticipated gross margins from in-house production, and steady consumer demand across new categories, management expects multiple pathways to achieve positive cash flow in 2026.

With a leaner cost structure, pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing capabilities, and strong brand equity, Charlotte's Web is well-positioned to capitalize on emerging botanical wellness opportunities as regulatory clarity advances. Management expects the combination of operating expense reductions and manufacturing efficiencies to drive sequential improvement in cash flow through Q4 2025, establishing a pathway to positive cash flow in 2026.

**(1) Non-GAAP Measures –EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA**

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") is not a recognized performance measure under U.S. GAAP. The term EBITDA consists of net income (loss) and excludes interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes other non-cash items such as changes in fair value of financial instruments (Mark-to-Market), Share-based compensation, and impairment of assets. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under U.S. GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The primary purpose of using non-GAAP financial measures is to provide supplemental information we believe may be useful to investors and to enable them to evaluate our results the same way we do. We also present non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they assist investors in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis and comparing our results with those of other companies by excluding items we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Specifically, we use these non-GAAP measures as measures of operating performance; to prepare our annual operating budget; to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business; to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; to provide consistency and comparability with past financial performance; to facilitate a comparison of our results with those of other companies, many of which use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results; and in communications with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Investors should be aware, however, that not all companies define these non-GAAP measures consistently.

(1)EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures with reconciliations provided in the tables below. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024 is as follows:
