Plan to Sell the Company’s Packaging Business

The Company announces plans to actively explore opportunities to sell its packaging business and reinvest in the Company’s consumer brands business. This action comports with the Company’s strategy to build a world-class house of brands and serves to unlock the significant unrecognized value of its packaging business, which we believe is not properly priced in our market capitalization today and makes up approximately 15-20% of overall Company revenue. If a transaction or series of transactions are consummated, the sale is also expected to significantly reduce the Company’s working capital and warehousing requirements. We can provide no assurances as to the timing of this sale and will provide further updates as they are available.


Promotion of Craig Snyder

The Company announces the promotion of Craig Snyder, Chief Commercial Officer, to President. Mr. Snyder has been responsible for all commercial activities since March 2022. Mr. Snyder has led our key programs to build brands, develop a new product roadmap, schedule product introductions, integrate all direct-to-consumer websites, develop pricing policies, and coordinate sales and marketing efforts. Mr. Snyder has held senior

Sale of Non-Core Assets and Cost Cutting Initiatives

The Company continues to make significant progress on the previously implemented new strategic plan (“2022 Plan”) to accelerate the path to profitability and capitalize the business in a non-dilutive manner. The objectives and achievements thus far are:

1.Disposing of other non-core assets:
a.On July 19th, 2022, the Company monetized its interest in Vibes Holdings, LLC, for $5.3M in cash, or an enterprise value of approximately 1X VIBES trailing 12 months revenue.
b.In July 2022, the Company sold its Azarius retail business in Amsterdam.
2.Discontinuing sales of lower-margin 3rd-party brands and selling existing inventory:
a.The Company recently completed its strategic SKU rationalization efforts, establishing a single comprehensive product catalog, which is now available at greenlane.com.
b.In 2022, the Company successfully generated over $2M in sales and dispositions of previously reserved excess & obsolete (“E&O”) inventory.
3.Cost- cutting initiatives:
a.Company also executed several cost-cutting initiatives resulting in expected savings of over $1.4 million annually, including terminating existing leases for facilities resulting in annual savings aggregating approximately $900K and restructuring a third-party vendor contract reducing working capital requirements and eliminating over $500K in annual costs.
b.The Company also secured a return of $1.35 million of its U.S. Customs and Border Protection bond.

Management Commentary

“We are proud of the tremendous accomplishments we have achieved thus far, however; we consider these to be lagging indicators for future success, meaning the results of many of these initiatives have yet to fully impact our P&L. We expect to gain significant efficiencies from the efforts to simplify and streamline our business, improve our systems and go-to-market offerings, and fully recognize our lower operating costs.”

“We have been very vocal about our plans to build the premier ancillary house of consumer brands, and we feel we are in pole position to achieve this goal. As we continue to execute on our plan, we intend to run a sales process and exit our packaging business. The packaging business is a thriving business, but one that ties up a lot of our resources, space, and working capital. We expect to achieve significant proceeds from the sale of this business unit allowing us to generate substantial non-dilutive capital that will be re-invested into growing our consumer business. For Greenlane to complete our transition to a higher-margin, higher-value consumer business, it’s imperative that we further simplify and streamline our offering and focus on the upmost valuable pieces of our business, especially in today’s current climate."

“As we move toward the sale of this division, we have already started realigning our senior leadership team to support the future Greenlane consumer business and further reduce expenses. Rodrigo de Oliveira, our current Chief Operating Officer, will be stepping down as COO at the end of September. Rodrigo was essential to the 2020 turnaround efforts at KushCo where we went from losing over $5M of aEBIDTA per quarter to achieving positive aEBIDTA several quarters later. Following the merger of Greenlane and KushCo, Rodrigo utilized his extensive integration and transformation experience to help Greenlane properly integrate and reduce our costs and expenses. I would like to extend my sincerest thank you to Rodrigo. We would not be where we are today without his unwavering passion, work ethic and leadership!"

“Earlier this year we brought on Craig Snyder as our Chief Commercial Officer, mainly because of his experience building and growing consumer businesses. We are now thrilled to promote Craig to President of the Company to lead our day-to-day business as we fully transition to a consumer model. I have been extremely impressed with Craig’s vision, leadership, and execution, and I very much look forward to this next chapter with Craig in a further elevated, pivotal position.”

Craig Snyder, President of Greenlane, commented, “I am honored to be appointed President of this fine organization. I look forward to continuing to execute on the blocking and tackling of growing revenues in our key categories, managing costs, and launching new products and platforms. When I joined the Company, I was amazed at the potential to transform this business into a leading house of brands consumer company. Now, that vision is more clearly in sight than ever before, and our team is committed to the efforts it will take for us to fully recognize that potential.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

Greenlane discloses Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP performance measure because management believes this measure assists investors and analysts in assessing our overall operating performance and evaluating how well we are executing our business strategies. You should not consider Adjusted EBITDA as alternatives to net loss, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as indicators of our operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA does not include interest expense, which has been a necessary element of our costs, and income tax payments we may be required to make
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect equity-based compensation
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect other one-time expenses and income, including consulting costs related to the implementation of our ERP system and the reversal of an allowance against indemnification receivables associated with the EU VAT liability
Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted EBITDA do not account for these items, these measures have material limitations as indicators of operating performance. Accordingly, management does not view Adjusted Net Loss or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as substitutes for measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Adjusted Gross Margin

Adjusted gross margin is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, which the Company calculates as total revenues less cost of revenues, prepared in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for certain non-recurring, non-cash items to the extent such items relate to cost of revenues, including charges relating to the Company's inventory rationalization initiatives. The Company uses Adjusted gross margin as a supplemental performance measure because it believes that adjusted gross margin is beneficial to investors for purpose of measuring the Company's operational performance, exclusive of certain non-recurring non-cash items that are not expected to be incurred in future periods. Specifically, in excluding charges relating to the Company's inventory rationalization initiatives, which the Company does not believe are indicative of the Company's operating performance, adjusted gross margin provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, more accurately reflects the Company's operational performance. Adjusted gross margin should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company's definition of Adjusted gross margin may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted SG&A

Adjusted SG&A is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, which the Company calculates as total selling, general and administrative expenses less depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes this measure is helpful to investors because it gives investors information about cash operating expenses.
