STAMFORD, Conn., Aug. 7, 2024 – PRESS RELEASE – Curaleaf Holdings Inc., a leading international provider of consumer products in cannabis, reported its financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. All financial information is reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and is provided in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
“Second quarter revenue was $342 million, up 2% and adjusted gross margin of 48% was up 253 basis points compared to last year,” Curaleaf Executive Chairman Boris Jordan said. “Our gross margin showed successive improvement each month during the quarter with June exiting at 50%. Adjusted EBITDA was $73 million or 21.3%. Thus far, the first half of 2024 has unfolded as we guided. We are starting to see the benefits of the work we initiated 18 months ago to streamline the business, drive efficiencies in our cultivation facilities, and leverage both domestic and international growth opportunities.
“Looking to the second half of the year, these actions will drive an acceleration in both our revenue and margins as state and country catalysts develop further, including New York, Ohio and Germany. Furthermore, in June Curaleaf launched The Hemp Company to expand the Select brand to consumers we are not reaching today with responsibly sourced, safe and tested hemp-derived THC edibles and beverages to a strong reception. Our global strategic vision is playing out on multiple fronts, yet there is much more for us to accomplish.”
“Curaleaf continues to execute its vision of being the global leader in cannabis,” Curaleaf CEO Matt Darin said. “We are at a pivotal time for our industry, on the cusp of federal reform, and the future is bright. Our international business experienced superb 78% year-over-year growth led by the U.K., Germany and contributions from the Northern Green acquisition. With this international growth in Q2, Curaleaf is leaning into its evolution from an MSO to an MCO, a multi-country operator, a term which represents our global vision and business that spans 15 countries.
“We believe the market will ultimately reward the companies that have a portfolio of global brands that are trusted by consumers worldwide. We’re also expanding consumer reach by leveraging distribution channels not available in our regulated business. We announced our entry into the hemp-derived THC market with two product lines, Select edibles and Select Zero Proof seltzers, sold via our direct-to-consumer website, TheHempCompany.com, which currently ships to over half the U.S. and through distribution partners.”

Non-GAAP Financial and Performance Measures
Curaleaf reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP and uses a number of financial measures and ratios when assessing its results and measuring overall performance. Some of these financial measures and ratios are not calculated in accordance with GAAP. Curaleaf refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, such as "adjusted gross profit," "adjusted gross margin," "adjusted EBITDA" and "adjusted EBITDA margin." These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The company defines adjusted gross profit as gross profit net of cost of goods sold and related other add-backs. Adjusted gross margin is defined by Curaleaf as adjusted gross profit divided by total revenues. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by Curaleaf as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization less share-based compensation expense and other add-backs related to business development, acquisition, financing and reorganization costs. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined by Curaleaf as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue. Free cash flow from operations is defined by Curaleaf as net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations less the purchases of property, plant and equipment (i.e., net capital expenditures). Curaleaf considers these measures to be an important indicator of the financial strength and performance of our business. The company believes the adjusted results presented provide relevant and useful information for investors, because they clarify our actual operating performance, make it easier to compare our results with those of other companies and allow investors to review performance in the same way as our management. Since these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, our reported GAAP financial results as indicators of our performance, and they may not be comparable to similarly named measures from other companies.
