Equity [Abstract]  
Stockholders' Equity STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Shares of our Class A common stock have both voting interests and economic interests (i.e., the right to receive distributions or dividends, whether cash or stock, and proceeds upon dissolution, winding up or liquidation), while shares of our Class B common stock have voting interests but no economic interests. Each share of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock entitles the record holder thereof to one vote on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote, and except as otherwise required in the A&R Charter, the holders of Common Stock will vote together as a single class on all matters (or, if any holders of our preferred stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of Common Stock, as a single class with such holders of preferred stock).
Class A Common Stock Repurchase Program
In November 2019, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program authorizing up to $5.0 million in repurchases of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock. Under the program, we may repurchase shares in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We may periodically repurchase shares in open market transactions, directly or indirectly, in block purchases and in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The timing, pricing, and amount of any repurchases under the share repurchase program will be determined by management at its discretion based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, trading volume and market price of our Class A common stock, corporate considerations, our working capital and investment requirements, general market and economic conditions, and legal requirements. The share repurchase program does not obligate us to repurchase any common stock and may be modified, discontinued, or suspended at any time. Shares of Class A common stock repurchased
under the program are subsequently retired. There were no share repurchases under the program during the three months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021, respectively.
Non-Controlling Interest
As discussed in “Note 1—Business Operations and Organization,” we consolidate the financial results of the Operating Company in our condensed consolidated financial statements and report a non-controlling interest related to the Common Units held by non-controlling interest holders. As of March 31, 2022, we owned 82.9% of the economic interests in the Operating Company, with the remaining 17.1% of the economic interests owned by non-controlling interest holders. The non-controlling interest in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss represents the portion of the net loss attributable to the economic interest in the Operating Company held by the non-controlling holders of Common Units calculated based on the weighted average non-controlling interests’ ownership during the periods presented.
At-the-Market Equity Offering
In August 2021, we established an "at-the-market" equity offering program (the "ATM Program") that provides for the sale of shares of our Class A common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $50 million, from time to time, through Cowen and Company, LLC ("Cowen"), as the sales agent. Net proceeds from sales of our shares of Class A common stock under the ATM Program are expected to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Sales of our Class A common stock under the ATM Program may be made by means of transactions that are deemed to be an "at the market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the Nasdaq Global Market or sales made to or through a market maker or through an electronic communications network. We are under no obligation to offer and sell shares of our Class A common stock under the ATM Program.

Shares of our Class A common stock will be issued pursuant to our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-257654), and a prospectus supplement relating to the Class A common stock that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 18, 2022. Pursuant to Instruction I.B.6, in no event will the Company sell Class A common stock through the ATM Program with a value exceeding more than one-third of the Company’s “public float” (the market value of the Company’s Class A common stock and any other equity securities that it issues in the future that are held by non-affiliates) in any twelve-month period so long as the Company’s public float remains below $75.0 million.

On April 18, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the sales agreement dated August 2, 2022 with Cowen. The purpose of the Amendment is to add the limitations imposed on the ATM Program by General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 (“Instruction I.B.6”) to the sales agreement. At the time of our entry into the Amendment, approximately $38.7 million in shares remained available for issuance under the ATM Program.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we sold 11,134,715 shares of our Class A common stock under the ATM Program, which generated gross proceeds of approximately $7.0 million and paid fees to the sales agent of approximately $0.2 million. Since the launch of the ATM program in August 2021 and through March 31, 2022, we sold 13,535,970 shares of our Class A common stock under the ATM Program, which generated gross proceeds of approximately $10.4 million and paid fees to the sales agent of approximately $0.3 million.
Common Stock and Warrant Offering

On August 9, 2021, we entered into securities purchase agreements with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of 4,200,000 shares of our Class A common stock, pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 5,926,583 shares of our Class A common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) and warrants to purchase up to 6,075,950 shares of our Class A common stock (the “Standard Warrants” and, together with the Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Warrants”), in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”). The shares of Class A common stock and Warrants were sold in Units (the “Units”), with each unit consisting of one share of Class A common stock or a Pre-Funded Warrant and a Standard Warrant to purchase 0.6 of a share of our Class A common stock. The Units were offered pursuant to our existing shelf registration statement on Form S-3. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the Standard Warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price equal to $3.55 per share of Class A common stock. The Standard Warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of issuance. Each Pre-Funded Warrant was exercisable with no expiration date for one Share of Class A common stock at an exercise price of $0.01. The Offering generated gross proceeds of approximately $31.9 million and net proceeds to the Company of approximately $29.9 million. All Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised in August and September 2021, based upon which we issued an additional 5,926,583 shares of our Class A common stock, for net proceeds of approximately $0.1 million.
Class C Common Stock Conversion

On August 31, 2021, we completed our merger with KushCo. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the consummation of the Mergers, holders of Class C common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, received one-third of one share
of Class B common stock, for each share of Class C common stock held, and Greenlane adopted the A&R Charter which eliminated Class C common stock as a class of Greenlane’s capital stock.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Greenlane by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Greenlane by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements.
A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share of our Class A common stock is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):
Three months ended March 31,
(in thousands, except per share data) 2022 2021
Numerator:
Net loss $ (18,749) $ (7,714)
Less: Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests (3,417) (3,458)
Net loss attributable to Class A common stockholders $ (15,332) $ (4,256)
Denominator:
Weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding 90,170  15,263 
Net loss per share of Class A common stock - basic and diluted $ (0.17) $ (0.28)
For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, shares of Class B common stock, shares of Class C common stock and stock options and warrants to purchase Class A common stock were excluded from the weighted-average in the computation of diluted net loss per share of Class A common stock because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Shares of our Class B common stock and Class C common stock do not share in our earnings or losses and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate calculations of basic and diluted net loss per share for each of our Class B common stock and Class C common stock under the two-class method have not been presented.
