Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended November 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements under Canadian securities laws and within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are intended to be subject to the "safe harbor" created by those sections and other applicable laws. Such statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If the risks or uncertainties ever materialize or the assumptions prove incorrect, our results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements under the Canadian securities laws and within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are intended to be subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections and other applicable laws. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “would,” “seek,” or “should,” or the negative or plural of these words or similar expressions or variations are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, among other things, our beliefs or expectations relating to our future performance, results of operations and financial condition; our intentions or expectations regarding our cost savings initiatives; our strategic initiatives, business strategy, supply chain, brand portfolio, product performance and expansion efforts; current or future macroeconomic trends; and our expectations regarding regulatory developments; future corporate acquisitions and strategic transactions; and our synergies, cash savings and efficiencies anticipated from the integration of our completed acquisitions and strategic transactions.
Risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those identified in this Form 10-Q and other risks and matters described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 as well as our other filings made from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and in our Canadian securities filings.
Forward looking statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Form 10-Q and, while we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, these statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) reflect the accounts of the Company for the quarterly period ended November 30, 2023. The financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements (the “Annual Financial Statements”) included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due, under the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value, as detailed in the Company’s accounting policies.
All amounts in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, notes and tables have been rounded to the nearest thousand, except par values and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated.
Certain items of the comparative figures have been changed to conform to the presentation adopted in the current period.
Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company either has a controlling voting interest or is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. A complete list of our subsidiaries that existed prior to our most recent year end is included in the Annual Report, except for the entities acquired within Note 7 (Business acquisitions), during the period ended November 30, 2023.
Marketable securities
We classify term deposits and other investments that have maturities of greater than three months but less than one year as marketable securities. The fair value of marketable securities is based on quoted market prices for publicly traded securities. Marketable securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
Restricted cash
We classify cash that is legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or usage, as restricted cash. As of November 30, 2023, the Company reported $
Assets held for sale
We classify capital assets that are available and which are probable for immediate sale in their present condition, which the Company has approved the action or plan to sell, as assets held for sale. As of November 30, 2023, the Company reported $
When there are changes in circumstances that were previously considered unlikely to occur, and it is decided not to proceed with a sale, an asset that was previously classified as assets held for sale is reclassified as held and used. The asset is then remeasured at the lower of its carrying amount before being classified as held for sale less the amortization that would have occurred and the fair value on the date the decision not to proceed with a sale was made. Changes in the carrying amount are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss.
Long-term investments
Investments in equity securities of entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest or significant influence are classified as an equity investment and accounted for at fair value. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price or impairments (referred to as the “measurement alternative”). In applying the measurement alternative, the Company performs a qualitative assessment on a quarterly basis and recognizes an impairment if there are sufficient indicators that the fair value of the equity investments is less than carrying values. Changes in value are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
Investments in entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest but has significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method, with the Company’s share of earnings or losses reported in earnings or losses from equity method investments on the statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. Equity method investments are recorded at cost, adjusted for the Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses, and impairment, if any, within “Interest in equity investees” on the balance sheets. The Company assesses investments in equity method investments when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may be impaired. If it is determined that the current fair value of an equity method investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, the Company will assess if the shortfall is other than temporary (OTTI). Evidence of a loss in value might include, but would not necessarily be limited to, absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or inability of the equity investee to sustain an earnings capacity that would justify the carrying amount of the investment. Once a determination is made that an OTTI exists, the investment is written down to its fair value in accordance with ASC 820 at the reporting date, which establishes a new cost basis.
Convertible notes receivable
Convertible notes receivable include various investments in which the Company has the right, or potential right to convert the indenture into common stock of the investee and are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses during the year, net of the related tax effect, are excluded from income and reflected in other comprehensive income (loss), and the cumulative effect is reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. We use judgement to assess convertible notes receivables for impairment at each measurement date. Convertible notes receivables are impaired when a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss and a new cost basis for the investment is established. We also evaluate whether there is a plan to sell the security, or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery. If neither of the conditions exist, then only the portion of the impairment loss attributable to credit loss is recorded in the statements of net loss and the remaining amount is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).
Revenue
Revenue is recognized when the control of the promised goods or services, through performance obligation, is transferred/provided to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for the performance obligations.
Excise taxes remitted to tax authorities are government-imposed excise taxes on cannabis and beer. Excise taxes are recorded as a reduction of sales in net revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and recognized as a current liability within accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, with the liability subsequently reduced when the taxes are remitted to the tax authority.
In addition, amounts disclosed as net revenue are net of excise taxes, sales tax, duty tax, allowances, discounts and rebates.
In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods or services, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration and the existence of significant financing components, if any.
We may enter into certain contracts for the sale of goods or services, which provide customers with rights of return, volume discounts, bonuses for volume/quality achievement, and/or sales allowances. In addition, the Company may provide in certain circumstances, a retrospective price reduction to a customer based primarily on inventory movement. The inclusion of these items may give rise to variable consideration. The Company uses the expected value method to estimate the variable consideration because this method provides the most accurate estimation of the amount of variable consideration to which the Company will be entitled. The Company uses historical evidence, current information and forecasts to estimate the variable consideration. The Company reduces revenue and recognizes a contract liability equal to the amount expected to be refunded to the customer in the form of a future rebate or credit for a retrospective price reduction, representing its obligation to return the customer’s consideration. The estimate is updated at each reporting period date.
On July 12, 2022, the Company and HEXO Corp. ("HEXO") entered into various commercial transaction agreements, as described in Note 26 (Segment reporting), which included an advisory services arrangement. The fees associated with the advisory services arrangement were recognized as revenue when such services were provided to HEXO. Any payments that were received for such services in advance of performance were recognized as a contract liability. On June 22, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of HEXO, as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions), simultaneously terminating the advisory services arrangement and other commercial transactions.
Transaction (income) costs
The Company expenses costs net of any gains directly attributable to business acquisitions and classifies these items as transaction (income) costs. These items include among other things, legal fees to complete the acquisition, financial advisor and due diligence costs, and transaction related compensation. These items are recognized as incurred.
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing reported net income (loss) attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing reported net income (loss) attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc. by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and the number of dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of vested share options, warrants, and RSUs and the incremental shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures and similar instruments. Shares of common stock outstanding under the share lending arrangement entered into in conjunction with the TLRY 27 Notes, see Note 13 (Convertible debentures payable) are excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share because the borrower of the shares is required under the share lending arrangement to refund any dividends paid on the shares lent.
In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, common share equivalents are not considered in periods in which a net loss is reported, as the inclusion of the common share equivalents would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, the dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding consisted of the following:
New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combination - Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60) Recognition and Initial Measurement (“ASU 2023-05”), which is intended to address the accounting for contributions made to a joint venture. ASU 2023-05 is effective for the Company beginning June 1, 2026. This update will be applied prospectively on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”). The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective for any entity. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company beginning the year ended May 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold on an annual basis. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company beginning the year ended June 01, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
New accounting pronouncements recently adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Subtopic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which is intended to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency. The Company adopted the ASU 2021-08 beginning June 1, 2023, however, it did not have any impact on our condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Note 18. Income taxes
The determination of the Company’s overall effective tax rate requires significant judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The effective tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in various United States federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases, and decreases in temporary and permanent differences between book and tax items, valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets, stock compensation, and the Company’s change in income in each jurisdiction all affect the overall effective tax rate. It is the Company’s practice to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

Legal proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we are at times subject to various legal proceedings and disputes, including the proceedings specifically discussed below. We assess our liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that we will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements. These legal reserves may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable or the amount of loss is not estimable, we do not accrue legal reserves. While the outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, based on information currently available and available insurance coverage, our management believes that it has established appropriate legal reserves. Any incremental liabilities arising from pending legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows.
There have been no material changes from the legal proceedings since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023, except with respect to certain aspects of the legal proceedings disclosed below:
Class Action Suits and Stockholder Derivative Suits
Authentic Brands Group Related Class Action (New York, United States)
On May 4, 2020, Ganesh Kasilingam filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”), against Tilray Brands, Inc., Brendan Kennedy and Mark Castaneda, on behalf of himself and a putative class, seeking to recover damages for alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Kasilingam litigation”). The complaint alleges that Tilray and the individual defendants overstated the anticipated advantages of the Company’s revenue sharing agreement with Authentic Brands Group (“ABG”), announced on January 15, 2019, and that the plaintiff suffered losses when Tilray’s stock price dropped after Tilray recognized an impairment with respect to the ABG deal on March 2, 2020. On August 6, 2020, SDNY entered an order appointing Saul Kassin as Lead Plaintiff and The Rosen Law Firm, P.A. as Lead Counsel. Lead Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on October 5, 2020, which asserts the same Sections 10(b) and 20(a) claims against the same defendants on largely the same theory, and includes new allegations that Tilray’s reported inventory, cost of sales, and gross margins in its financial reports during the class period were false and misleading because Tilray improperly recorded unsellable “trim” as inventory and understated the cost of sales for its products.
On September 27, 2021, the U.S. District Court entered an Opinion & Order granting the Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint in the Kasilingam litigation without prejudice. On December 3, 2021, the lead plaintiff filed a second amended complaint alleging similar claims against Tilray and Brendan Kennedy. The defendants moved to dismiss the second amended complaint on February 2, 2022. On September 28, 2022, the Court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. On October 12, 2022, the Company filed a motion for reconsideration and/or interlocutory appeal of this Court decision.
On August 21, 2023, the U.S. District Court granted Tilray’s motion for reconsideration and dismissed the second amended complaint with leave to amend one final time. On September 27, 2023, plaintiff filed a third amended complaint. Tilray continues to believe that all of the underlying claims in the amended complaint are without merit and should be dismissed with prejudice.
Legal Proceedings Related to Contractual Obligations
420 Investments Ltd. Litigation
On February 21, 2020, 420 Investments Ltd., as Plaintiff (“420 Investments”), filed a lawsuit against Tilray Brands, Inc. and High Park Shops Inc. as Defendants, in Calgary, Alberta in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta. In August 2019, Tilray and High Park entered into an Arrangement Agreement with 420 Investments and others (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, High Park was to acquire the securities of 420 Investments. In February 2020, Tilray and High Park gave notice of termination of the Agreement. 420 Investments alleges that the termination was unlawful and without merit and further alleges that the Defendants had no legal basis to terminate. 420 Investments alleges that the Defendants did not meet their contractual and good faith obligations under the Agreement. 420 Investment seeks damages in the stated amount of plus in aggravated damages. The Tilray and High Park Statement of Defense and counterclaim were both filed on March 20, 2020. 420 Investment’s Statement of Defense to our counterclaim was filed on April 20, 2020. Respectively, 420 Investments and Tilray / High Park served each other with their Affidavits of Records on August 25, 2020 and November 30, 2020. Tilray and High Park cross-examined the litigation representative of 420 Investments. The Company denies the Plaintiff’s allegations and intends to continue to vigorously defend this litigation matter, although there can be no assurance as to its outcome.
In February 2023, Tilray and High Park filed an Application for Summary Judgment to collect an unpaid bridge loan made to 420 Investments on August 28, 2019, relating to the subject transaction. That debt was repayable in March 2020, but was never repaid. The application is pending and a decision from the Court is expected on Tilray’s Application for Summary Judgment in the calendar year of 2024.
Docklight Litigation Settlement
On November 5, 2021 Docklight Brands, Inc. (“Docklight”) filed a complaint against the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, High Park Holdings, Ltd. in Superior Court of the State of Washington, King County. Docklight claimed breach of contract against High Park arising from a 2018 license agreement pursuant to which Docklight licensed certain Bob Marley-related brands to High Park (as amended in 2020 and 2021, the “High Park License”). In addition, Docklight brought a negligent misrepresentation claim against Tilray, alleging that certain individuals at Tilray or Aphria had made false statements to Docklight in order to induce Docklight to waive Docklight’s alleged right to terminate the High Park License for change-of-control on the basis of the 2021 Tilray-Aphria Arrangement Agreement. Effective October 10, 2023, the parties entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which the Company paid an aggregate amount equal to $

Note 25. Fair value measurements
Financial instruments
The Company has classified its financial instruments as described in Note 3 Significant accounting policies in our Annual Financial Statements.
The carrying values of accounts receivable, bank indebtedness and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short periods to maturity.
At November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023 the Company had long-term debt of $
The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis are its convertible notes receivable, equity investments measured at fair value, convertible debentures measured at fair value, acquisition-related contingent consideration, and warrant liability.
Convertible notes receivable and long-term investments are recorded at fair value. The estimated fair value is determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model, probability of legalization and is classified as Level 3.
Convertible debentures payable are recorded at fair value when elected or required under US GAAP. Specifically, the APHA 24 instrument's estimated fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is classified as Level 3.
Certain equity investments recorded at fair value have quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and are classified as Level 1. The Company classified securities with observable inputs as Level 2 and without a quoted market price as Level 3.
The warrants associated with the warrant liability are classified as Level 3 derivatives. Consequently, the estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Until the warrants are exercised, expire, or other facts and circumstances lead the warrant liability to be reclassified to stockholders’ equity, the warrant liability (which relates to warrants to purchase shares of common stock) is marked-to-market each reporting period with the change in fair value recorded in change in fair value of warrant liability. Any significant adjustments to the unobservable inputs disclosed in the table below would have a direct impact on the fair value of the warrant liability.
The contingent consideration from the acquisitions of SweetWater, Montauk, and Truss due in December 2023, December 2025, and upon the triggering event if met, respectively and are payable in cash, is determined by discounting future expected cash outflows at a discount rate in the range of

Items measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis
The Company's prepaids and other current assets, long lived assets, including property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets are measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There have been no changes to the Company’s capital management approach in the period. The Company considers its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as capital.
Note 26. Segment reporting
Information reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance focuses on the nature of the operations. The Company operates in reportable segments: (1) cannabis operations, which encompasses the production, distribution, sale, co-manufacturing and advisory services of both medical and adult-use cannabis, (2) beverage alcohol operations, which encompasses the production, marketing and sale of beverage and beverage alcohol products, (3) distribution operations, which encompasses the purchase and resale of pharmaceuticals products to wholesale and pharmacy customers, and (4) wellness products, which encompasses hemp foods and hemp-based cannabidiol (“CBD”) consumer products. This structure is in line with how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) assesses our performance and allocates resources.
Operating segments have not been aggregated and no asset information is provided for the segments because the Company’s CODM does not receive asset information by segment on a regular basis.

Company Overview
We are a leading global cannabis-lifestyle and consumer packaged goods company headquartered in Leamington and New York, with operations in Canada, the United States, Europe, Australia, and Latin America that is changing people’s lives for the better – one person at a time – by inspiring and empowering a worldwide community to live their very best life, enhanced by moments of connection and wellbeing. Tilray’s mission is to be the most responsible, trusted and market leading cannabis consumer products company in the world with a portfolio of innovative, high-quality and beloved brands that address the needs of the consumers, customers and patients we serve.
Our overall strategy is to leverage our brands, infrastructure, expertise and capabilities to drive market share in the industries in which we compete, achieve industry-leading, profitable growth and build sustainable, long-term shareholder value. In order to ensure the long-term sustainable growth of our Company, we continue to focus on developing strong capabilities in consumer insights, drive category management leadership and assess growth opportunities with the introduction of new products and entries into new geographies. In addition, we are relentlessly focused on managing our cost of goods and expenses in order to maintain our strong financial position.
Trends and Other Factors Affecting Our Business
Canadian cannabis market trends:
The cannabis industry in Canada continues to evolve at a rapid pace during the early periods following the federal legalization of adult-use cannabis. Through analysis of the current market conditions, the following key trends have emerged and are anticipated to influence the near-term future in the industry:
| - |
Market share. Tilray continues to maintain its market leadership position in Canada. However, during the quarter, we experienced a marginal dip in market share in Canada from 13.4% to 12.5% from the immediately preceding quarter, as reported by Hifyre data for all provinces excluding Quebec where Weedcrawler was deemed more accurate. While our market share has increased from the prior year comparison as a result of the strategic acquisitions of HEXO and Truss, the current period decrease reflects the intricacies of integrating products from strategic acquisitions like HEXO and Truss into our distribution channels. Challenges during this integration, including issues with SKU-specific gaps due to facility transitions, impacted our performance. However, we anticipate a rebound in market share for the latter half of our third quarter as we address these issues and integrate our processes. |
| - |
Price compression. Historical price compression persists in the market, intensified by fierce competition among the approximately 1,000 Licensed Producers in Canada. Despite increased sales volume, year-over-year price compression has adversely impacted revenue by approximately $3.6 million and $6.7 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, influencing both cannabis gross margin and the bottom line. The fixed impact of excise per gram, notwithstanding the decline in average selling prices, further compounds these challenges, prompting ongoing industry lobbying efforts. |
| - |
Timing difference in recognizing synergized operating results. As we continue to acquire businesses such as HEXO and Truss, a large part of our strategy involves removing legacy costs from these businesses as part of our acquisition strategy. Once we have completed our full $27 million synergy plan for HEXO and integrated Truss's operations, we expect our operating results to be more profitable. Concurrently, we are actively evaluating our facilities, optimizing for efficiency, and implementing cost reduction measures to ensure our value chain operates at peak efficiency. |
These identified trends have had impacts on the current period results of operations and are discussed in greater detail in the respective sections.
International cannabis market updates:
The cannabis industry in Europe is in its early stages of development whereby countries within Europe are at different stages of legalization of medical and adult-use cannabis as some countries have expressed a clear political ambition to legalize adult-use cannabis (Germany, Portugal, Luxembourg and Czech Republic), some are engaging in an experiment for adult-use (Germany, Netherlands and Switzerland) and some are debating regulations for cannabinoid-based medicine (France and Spain). In Europe, we believe that, despite continuing recessionary economic conditions and the Russian conflict with Ukraine, cannabis legalization (both medicinal and adult-use) will continue to gain traction albeit more slowly than originally expected. We also continue to believe that Tilray remains uniquely positioned to maintain and gain significant market share in these markets with its infrastructure and its investments, which is comprised of two EU-GMP cultivation facilities within Europe located in Portugal and Germany, our distribution network and our demonstrated commitment to the availability, quality and safety of our cannabinoid-based medical products. Today, Germany remains the largest medical cannabis market in Europe.
The following is a summary of the state of cannabis legalization within Europe:
Germany. In late October 2022, the German government published key details of its plan to legalize and regulate adult-use cannabis, including what Health Minister Karl Lauterbach described as “complete” cultivation within the country.
Recently, Mr. Lauterbach advised that the proposal had been revised and that the new plan is a two-part model, which appears to be designed in order to legalize cannabis as broadly as possibly without running afoul of European Union rules. On July 6, 2023, it was announced that the draft regulations pertaining to decriminalization, home cultivation and non-commercial “cultivation associations” (i.e., social clubs) (the "Pillar One Regulations") had been finalized by the health ministry and was ready to be delivered to the German parliament. Due to lack of internal alignment by the SPD party, the Pillar One Regulations, which were initially expected to be introduced to the German parliament in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2023, now will not be brought until early in the calendar year of 2024. It is expected that the Pillar One Regulations will be passed in January 2024, with the new law coming into effect in the first quarter of calendar year 2024.
In addition to the Pillar One Regulations addressing decriminalization, home cultivation and non-commercial “cultivation associations”, it also contains provisions which provide for broad medical cannabis reform, to which there appears to be broad consensus. These provisions include the reclassification of medical cannabis as a non-narcotic, thereby increasing the accessibility of medical cannabis to patients and the abolishment of the tender procedure for in-country cultivation in favor of a permit procedure.
We expect to see the cornerstone framework for the Pillar Two Regulations governing the model projects in January 2024.
We continue to believe that Tilray is well-positioned in Germany to provide consistent and sustainable cannabis products for the adult-use market whether only in-country cultivation is permitted or whether imports are also allowed given our Aphria RX facility located in Germany and our EU-GMP-certified production facility in Portugal, as well as our distribution platform, which provides us with access to 13,000 pharmacies in Germany. Tilray is also well-positioned to continue to service the medical cannabis market and we believe that the reclassification of medical cannabis as a non-narcotic and the adoption of a permit procedure for in-country cultivation provides Tilray with a larger market opportunity.
Switzerland. In October 2021, Switzerland announced its intention to legalize cannabis by allowing production, cultivation, trade, and consumption, and in the meantime, it is commencing pilot projects in various cities, which permits selected participants to purchase cannabis for adult-use in various pharmacies in order to conduct studies on the cannabis market and its impact on Swiss society. It is the first trial for the legal distribution of adult-use cannabis containing THC in Europe. To date, Switzerland has granted several cities, including Basel, Bern, Biel/Bienne, Lucerne, Geneva, and Zurich, the opportunity to start their cannabis pilot projects. Zurich, which has recently been reported to lack cannabis consumers, is currently seeking 400 eligible individuals to participate.
Spain. The Spanish Congress' Health Committee has recently approved a Medical Cannabis Report that paves the way for a government-sponsored bill on medical cannabis. The Report explicitly opens the door to standardized preparations other than the drugs already approved, highlighting their advantages in relation to safety, security and stability; as well as the possibility to prescribe medical cannabis in community pharmacies and not only in hospitals, favoring the access to the patients that may need it.
France. France launched a two-year pilot experiment to supply approximately 3,000 patients with medical cannabis. To date, 2,300 patients are enrolled in the experiment, which has been extended for another year and is now ending March 2024 in order to collect more data and to adopt a legal framework. The first results of the experimentation are positive. Several independent agencies have produced reports that show the effectiveness of medical cannabis, especially in situations of chronic pain.
Czech Republic. The Czech Republic has discussed plans to launch a fully regulated adult-use cannabis market and is reviewing in the context of the European regulations.
Malta. In 2021, became the first country in the European Union to legalize personal possession of the drug and permit private “cannabis clubs,” where members can grow and share the drug.
Netherlands. The Netherlands launched a pilot program involving the cultivation of cannabis for adult-use. The purpose of the experiment is to determine whether and how controlled cannabis can be legally supplied to coffeeshops and what the effects of this would be. During the experiment, legally produced cannabis will be sold in coffeeshops in 10 municipalities. Coffeeshops in these municipalities may only sell legally produced cannabis. The term of the experiment is set for four years.
Beverage alcohol market trends:
The beverage alcohol category, while more established, continues to shift with changes in consumer trends for the craft industry. Specifically, based on IRI data, for the 13 weeks ended November 30, 2023, the US beer trends softened slightly as the industry increased 1.6%, while craft beer decreased 1.6%, a slight decline from the immediately preceding quarter, which is consistent with the historical seasonality of craft beer. Craft beer still maintains the 4th largest segment within total beer, generating over $1.1B in retail sales. Sweetwater revenues in the quarter ending August 31, 2023, and November 30, 2023, were both 1% higher than the comparable quarters of the prior year. SweetWater is expected to maintain growth nationally during the remainder of the 2024 fiscal year through programming and product innovation launches. Early results from the launch of SweetWater’s latest innovation, Gummies, are encouraging, with the brand quickly becoming a top 3 offering in activated markets. Additionally, Montauk, which was acquired on November 7, 2022, finished the period with a 5.9% growth based on IRI data for the aforementioned period, through sustained success in home markets and new market expansion. The Company anticipates continued growth through focused innovation, targeted marketing efforts, and gains in distribution across the portfolio of brands. The Company has also seen positive trends across the newly acquired brands portfolio from the Acquisition of the Beverage Alcohol Business Portfolio, which are included in our results from October 1, 2023.
Breckenridge Distillery is a leader in the bourbon industry and continues to gain market share in both the vodka and gin markets. A primary growth objective is to continue expansion of market share across the United States, including expanding the national chain's footprint, to maintain a double-digit annual top-line growth. To ensure continued growth in the future, the company is focused on expanding the marketing strategy, highlighting its quality products. Recent media coverage includes coverage of newly released products, the expanded Denver Broncos Sponsorship, and recognition of the world class restaurant located at the distillery. The overall whiskey market remains positive, but the growing tequila and RTD cocktail markets have slowed. The Company expects its spirits business to continue to grow with innovative new product offerings and continued expansion in the US market.
Wellness market trends:
Manitoba Harvest’s branded hemp business continued to expand its U.S. and Canadian leading market share position this quarter with consumption up in both the Natural and Conventional Channels, with the brands top five customers all seeing growth. For the remainder of the year, the Company will look to expand the Happy Flower™ brand with retail distribution into key markets, focusing on U.S. states with established CBD permissibility and sales momentum in future periods.
Acquisitions, Strategic Transactions and Synergies
We strive to continue to expand our business on a consolidated basis, through a combination of organic growth and acquisition. While we continue to execute against our strategic initiatives that we believe will result in the long-term, sustainable growth and value to our stockholders, we continue to evaluate potential acquisitions and other strategic transactions of businesses that we believe complement our existing portfolio, infrastructure and capabilities or provide us with the opportunity to enter attractive new geographic markets and product categories as well as expand our existing capabilities. In addition, we have exited certain businesses and continue to evaluate certain businesses within our portfolio that are dilutive to profitability and cash flow. As a result, we incur transaction costs in connection with identifying and completing acquisitions and strategic transactions, as well as ongoing integration costs as we combine acquired companies and continue to achieve synergies, which is offset by income generated in connection with the execution of these transactions. For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, we incurred $1.1 million and $9.6 million of transaction expenses, discussed further below.
Our acquisition strategy has had a material impact on the Company’s results in the current quarter and we expect will continue into future periods, generating accretive impacts for our stockholders. A summary of their impacts are as follows:
| ● |
HEXO acquisition: |
On June 22, 2023, Tilray acquired HEXO Corp. (“HEXO”) as discussed in Note 7 (Business acquisitions). With the HEXO Acquisition, Tilray initially expected to achieve additional cost savings of $27 million on an annualized pre-tax basis and has subsequently increased this target to between $30 to $ 35 million. These synergies will be realized across production, sales, marketing, distribution, and corporate savings, with incremental upside resulting from consolidating packaging, procurement, freight, and logistics. This builds on Tilray’s substantial progress optimizing its Canadian cannabis operations discussed below. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, we have achieved $22.0 million of our synergy plan on an annualized run-rate basis, of which $14.0 million represented actual cost savings during the period. As discussed in our trends section, these cost savings initiatives take time to implement, resulting in related benefits being realized over time.
| ● |
Craft beverage acquisition: |
On September 29, 2023, Tilray acquired a portfolio of craft beer brands, assets and businesses comprising eight beer and beverage brands from Anheuser-Busch Companies, LLC, including breweries and brewpubs associated with them (the “Craft Acquisition”). The acquired businesses include Shock Top, Breckenridge Brewery, Blue Point Brewing Company, 10 Barrel Brewing Company, Redhook Brewery, Widmer Brothers Brewing, Square Mile Cider Company, and HiBall Energy. The details of the acquisition are as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions). The Craft Acquisition, is expected to be transformational to our beverage alcohol strategy elevating the Company to the 5th largest U.S. Craft Beer market share position from our previous 9th place market share position.
The Company further believes the Craft transaction will be accretive to our Adjusted EBITDA, driven by a range of strategic benefits, including:
| - |
An established brand portfolio with a devoted consumer base, coupled with growth potential through integration and expanded capabilities in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. | |
| - |
The acquisition encompasses four production facilities and eight brewpub locations, further solidifying our operational presence. |
|
| - |
A reinforced nationwide distribution footprint, propelling Tilray's beer sales volume from four million cases to twelve million, thereby tripling its market reach on a pro forma basis. |
In addition to acquisitions completed above, the Company has also completed the following cost saving strategies during the quarter:
| ● |
Cannabis business cost reduction plan: |
During the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended May 31, 2022, the Company launched a $30 million cost optimization plan of our existing cannabis business to solidify our position as an industry leading low-cost producer. To date as of November 30, 2023, we have achieved $22.3 million against the plan. The Company now considers this plan fulfilled, owing to a strategic shift in our Cannabis beverage strategy. The Company's original targets involved repurposing our beverage facility; however, this initiative was altered following the Truss acquisition, which required additional capacity from our existing infrastructure.
| ● |
International Cannabis business cost reduction plan: |
During our fiscal year ended May 31 2023, the Company launched an $8.0 million cost optimization plan for our international cannabis business to adapt to changing market dynamics and slower than anticipated legalization in Europe. In the current period ended November 30, 2023, the Company achieved an annualized run-rate basis of $7.6 million of cost savings. The Company concluded this savings plan as of November 30, 2023. The Company concluded this savings plan as of November 30, 2023. The remaining portion of the savings target was tied to an assumed temporary decrease in demand. However, the assumed temporary reduction did not occur rather demand for our European cannabis products increased, rendering the cost savings associated with that part of the plan unnecessary.
Political and Economic Environment
Our results of operations can also be affected by economic, political, legislative, regulatory, legal actions, the global volatility and general market disruption resulting from geopolitical tensions, such as Russia's incursion into Ukraine. Economic conditions, such as recessionary trends, inflation, supply chain disruptions, interest and monetary exchange rates, and government fiscal policies, and the recent banking credit crises, can have a significant effect on operations. Accordingly, we could be affected by civil, criminal, environmental, regulatory or administrative actions, claims or proceedings.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Throughout this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we discuss non-GAAP financial measures, including reference to:
| ● |
adjusted gross profit (excluding purchase price allocation (“PPA”) fair value step up) for each reporting segment (Cannabis, Beverage alcohol, Distribution and Wellness) as applicable, |
| ● |
adjusted gross margin (excluding purchase price allocation (“PPA”) fair value step up) for each reporting segment (Cannabis, Beverage alcohol, Distribution and Wellness) as applicable, |
| ● |
adjusted EBITDA, |
| ● |
cash and marketable securities, and |
| ● |
constant currency presentation of net revenue. |
All these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, the financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, ("GAAP"). These measures, which may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies, are presented to help investors' overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Please see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures" below for reconciliation of such non-GAAP Measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, as well as a discussion of our adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross profit and adjusted EBITDA measures and the calculation of such measures.
Constant Currency Presentation
We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it provides transparency to underlying performance in our consolidated net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on period-to-period comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange markets. To present this information for historical periods, current period net sales for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar are translated into U.S. Dollars at the average monthly exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year rather than at the actual average monthly exchange rate in effect during the current period of the current fiscal year. As a result, the foreign currency impact is equal to the current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.
Cash and Marketable Securities
The Company combines the Cash and cash equivalent financial statement line item and the Marketable securities financial statement line item as an aggregate total as reconciled in the liquidity and capital resource section below. The Company’s management believes that this presentation provides useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its short-term liquidity position by combining these three GAAP metrics.
Operating Metrics and Non-GAAP Measures
We use the following operating metrics and non-GAAP measures to evaluate our business and operations, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, project our future performance, and make strategic decisions. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate operating metrics and non-GAAP measures with similar names differently which may reduce their usefulness as comparative measures. Certain variances are labeled as not meaningful ("NM") throughout management's discussion and analysis.

Revenue from Canadian medical cannabis: Revenue from Canadian medical cannabis decreased to $6.3 million and $12.4 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to revenue of $6.4 million and $12.9 million for the prior year same period. On a constant currency basis revenue from Canadian medical cannabis was $6.4 million and $12.7 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to revenue of $6.4 million and $12.9 million for the prior year same periods. While revenue was relatively consistent period over period and on a constant currency basis for the three month period, the six month slight decrease in revenue from medical cannabis continues to be driven by increased competition from the adult-use recreational market and its related price compression impacting the medical cannabis market.
Revenue from Canadian adult-use cannabis: During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, our revenue from Canadian adult-use cannabis increased to $72.0 million and $143.2 million, compared to revenue of $52.4 million and $110.7 million and for the prior year same period. Further, the prior year revenue includes advisory fees in the amount of $7.9 million and $15.6 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2022, compared to $nil and $1.5 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. Excluding these advisory service fees, revenue increased by $27.4 million and $46.6 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. The increase in adult-use revenue was driven by continuous launches of new product innovations from our existing brand portfolios as well as the increased revenue from the acquisition of HEXO on June 22, 2023, and Truss on August 3, 2023. Additionally, excluding the decline in the Canadian dollar, on a constant currency basis, our revenue from Canadian adult-use cannabis increased to $73.0 million and $146.1 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023.
Wholesale cannabis revenue: Revenue from wholesale cannabis increased to $4.3 million and $9.6 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to revenue of $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the prior year same period. On a constant currency basis, revenue from wholesale cannabis increased to $$4.3 million and $9.8 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to revenue of $0.2 million and $0.6 million. The Company continues to believe that wholesale cannabis revenue will remain subject to quarter-to-quarter variability and is based on opportunistic sales. The wholesale transactions that occurred in the current year periods aided with our liquidity initiatives to increase our cash flow from operations despite having unfavorable impacts on our gross margin and EBITDA of $(0.2) million and $(2.9) million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023.
International cannabis revenue: Revenue from international cannabis increased to $11.9 million and $26.2 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to revenue of $7.7 million and $18.1 million for the prior year same period. Given the increase of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar when compared to the prior year quarter, on a constant currency basis, revenue from international cannabis was $11.4 million and $25.2 million compared to $7.7 million and $18.1 million in the prior year same period for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. The increase in the period is largely driven by expansion into emerging international medical markets. Additionally, in the prior period the Company recognized a one-time return adjustment of $3.1 million related to a former customer in Israel that commenced bankruptcy proceedings.
Distribution revenue
Revenue from Distribution operations increased to $67.2 million and $136.4 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to revenue of $60.2 million and $120.8 million for the prior year same period. Revenue was positively impacted during the three month period from the increase of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar in the quarter, which when the impacts are eliminated on a constant currency basis, revenue was $64.5 million and $131.5 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. The increase in the period was driven by increased production capacity achieved through out-sourcing to third party production facilities as well as leveraging our own internal production and improved procurement processes, which has allowed CC Pharma to improve its product mix.
Beverage alcohol revenue
Revenue from our Beverage alcohol operations increased to $46.5 million and $70.7 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to revenue of $21.4 million and $42.0 million for the prior year same period. The increase in the three and six month periods relate primarily to our acquisitions of the newly acquired Craft Acquisition brands and Montauk which occurred on September 29, 2023 and November 7, 2022, respectively, and is not reflected in the full prior year comparative periods.
Wellness revenue
Our Wellness revenue from Manitoba Harvest was relatively consistent at $12.9 million and $26.2 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $12.7 million and $26.1 million from the prior year same period. On a constant currency basis for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, Wellness revenue increased to $13.0 million and $26.5 million from $12.7 and $26.1 million. Overall, sales remained relatively consistent period over period with the increase being driven by a promotional sale at a large bulk retailer.

Adjusted gross profit is our Gross profit (adjusted to exclude purchase price accounting valuation step-up) and adjusted gross margin is our Gross margin (adjusted to exclude purchase price accounting valuation step-up) and are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Use of Non-GAAP Measures” above for additional discussion regarding these non-GAAP measures. The Company’s management believes that adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin are useful to our management to evaluate our business and operations, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, project our future performance, and make strategic decisions. We do not consider adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. |
Cannabis gross margin: Gross margin decreased during the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 to 31% and 29% from 43% and 47% for the prior year same period. Excluding the impact of the non-cash fair value purchase price accounting step-up, adjusted gross margin during the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 decreased to 35% and 35% from 43% and 47% when comparing the same prior year period. A portion of the decrease is a result of the termination of the HEXO advisory services agreement which contributed $nil and $1.5 million of gross profit in the current year compared to $7.9 and $15.6 million in the prior year, which if excluded would decrease adjusted gross margin to 32% and 38% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2022. Further, in the prior year second quarter the Company's international cannabis revenue section recognized a one-time return that reduced our top line revenue as well as a one-time inventory disposals incurred as exit costs from Israel for a combined impact of reducing gross profit by $1.4 million. Lastly, significant wholesale transactions with negative gross profit of $(0.2) and $(2.9) million, were entered into to optimize our inventory levels and prioritize the generation of positive operating cash flow. Combining the aforementioned factors, adjusted gross cannabis margin would have been 37% and 38% compared 33% and 38% in the prior period comparative period.
Distribution gross margin: Gross margin of 11% and 11% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 decreased from 13% and 11% for the same periods in the prior year. While consistent for the six month period comparison, the decrease in the gross margin for the three month period is attributed to product mix.
Beverage alcohol gross margin: Gross margin of 34% and 41% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 decreased from 47% and 47% from the same period in the prior year. Adjusted gross margin of 38% and 44% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 decreased from 52% and 52% from the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in the adjusted beverage alcohol gross margin was a result of the newly acquired Craft Acquisition brands, which currently have lower margins than our historical business, primarily due to the current under utilization of the breweries we acquired.
Wellness gross margin: Gross margin of 29% and 29% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 decreased from 31% and 28% from the same period in the prior year. The decrease in the three month period was a result of a change in sales mix towards more bulk retail sales which have a lower margin. Wellness gross margin stayed consistent during the six month period.

Executive compensation increased by 9% and 6% in the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. Executive compensation has remained generally consistent period over period.
Office and general increased by 9% and 23% during the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. The increase for the three month period is a result of the acquisition of the newly acquired beverage alcohol business portfolio, Montauk and HEXO, which did not occur in the prior period.
Salaries and wages increased by 56% and 17% during the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. The increase is primarily due to the inclusion of newly acquired beverage alcohol business portfolio, Montauk and HEXO employees, which were not in the prior period.
The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $8.2 and $16.5 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $10.9 and $20.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The balance is based on the time-based vesting schedules and varies according to the assumptions used in the vesting model. During the quarter, as a result of a change in the probability of achievement of stock price targets for certain grants issued in 2021, as well as an increased forfeiture rate, stock based compensation decreased period over period.
Insurance expenses decreased by 8% and increased by 17% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 to $2.5 and $6.3 million from $2.7 and $5.4 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended November 30, 2023, was driven by the Company's decision to self-insure certain of its property risks. The increase for the six months ended November 30, 2023, was driven by the expanded polices required for our newly acquired beverage alcohol business portfolio, HEXO and Montauk entities.
Rent expenses increased by 113% and 52% for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 to $1.6 and $2.4 million from $0.7 and $1.6 million for the same period in the prior year. This increase was driven by the expanded polices required for our newly acquired beverage alcohol business portfolio, HEXO and Montauk entities.
Selling costs
For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company incurred selling costs of $7.6 and $14.4 million or 3.9% and 3.9% of net revenue as compared to $9.7 and $19.3 million and 6.7% and 6.5% of net revenue in the prior year period. These costs relate to third-party distributor commissions, shipping costs, Health Canada cannabis fees, and patient acquisition and maintenance costs. Patient acquisition and ongoing patient maintenance costs include funding to individual clinics to assist with additional costs incurred by clinics resulting from the education of patients using the Company’s products. The decrease in the three month period was related to the renegotiation of terms in one of our distributor relationships resulting in reduced variable fees. This impact was also emphasized in the three month period as a portion of our selling fees related to our Canadian adult-use cannabis with fixed components and did not increase with the increase in our revenue during the quarter.
Amortization
The Company incurred non-production related amortization charges of $21.9 and $44.1 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $24.0 and $48.4 million in the prior year period. The decreased amortization in the period is a result of the reduced intangible asset levels, as a result of prior year impairments.
Marketing and promotion costs
For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company incurred marketing and promotion costs of $9.2 and $17.7 million as compared to $8.5 and $15.8 million for the prior year period. The increase is due to the acquisition of the newly acquired beverage alcohol business portfolio, HEXO and Montauk.
Research and development
Research and development costs were $0.1 and $0.1 million during the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $0.2 and $0.3 million in the prior year period. These relate to external costs associated with the development of new products.
Change in fair value of contingent consideration
The Company measures contingent consideration at fair value classified as Level 3, as discussed in Note 25 (Fair value measurements). The Company currently has three contingent consideration liabilities of $3.0 million, $13.3 million and $4.4 million for the Sweetwater, Montauk, and Truss acquisitions, respectively, as of November 30, 2023 compared to $16.2 million, $10.9 million and $nil respectively as of May 31, 2023. The decrease in fair value of $10.8 million was driven by the lowered probability of achieving the incentive targets, primarily relating to Sweetwater, which was offset by an increase related to the increased probability of achieving the contingent consideration from the Montauk acquisition as well as the newly acquired contingent consideration from the Truss acquisition.
Litigation
For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company recorded $3.0 and $5.1 million of litigation settlements costs, net of favorable recoveries, and the third party fees associated with defending these claims, compared to an expense of $2.8 and $3.3 million for the prior period comparative. The increase is related to period to period variability as litigation is non-recurring in nature.
Restructuring costs
In connection with the execution of our acquisition strategy and strategic transactions, the Company has incurred non-recurring restructuring and exit costs associated with the integration efforts of these transactions. For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company incurred $2.7 and $3.6 million of restructuring costs compared to $8.1 and $8.1 million for the prior period comparative.
The Company approves detailed restructuring initiative plans at the executive level and recognizes these expenses in the period in which the plan has been committed to. The detailed breakdown of the restructuring plans in place, inclusive of their expected timeline for completion, for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, is as follows:
HEXO Acquisition: Pursuant to our announced synergy program of $27 million in relation to the HEXO acquisition, we expect our HEXO restructuring plan to span the first 24 months following the acquisition. In the current six-month period, we recognized $1.2 million related to employee termination benefits in relation to the conversion of our Masson facility from cannabis to produce and the optimization of our Redecan facilities.
Truss Acquisition: In relation to the acquisition of Truss, the Company has decided to repurpose the facility for the production of non-cannabis beverages. The Company expects the timeline of completion of this program to be 18 months from date of acquisition. In the current six-month period, we recognized $1.6 million of restructuring charges related to the costs of exiting the facility until the new business has resumed.
Canadian Business Cost Reduction Plan: As referenced in our Canadian cannabis cost optimization plan for $30 million, the Company has committed to reducing costs, which was completed during the three months ended November 30, 2023. In the current six-month period, we recognized $0.3 million of restructuring charges related to the relocation of our Broken Coast facility from Duncan to Nanaimo, BC, and the employee termination benefits associated with the transition of packaging finished goods to the Aphria One location.
Distribution Cost Optimization: The Company executed a cost optimization plan during the quarter to reduce costs within the distribution segment by $1.5 million annually. It is expected that this plan will be completed within the fiscal year, however the Company continues to evaluate this segment for further cost optimizations and production efficiencies. In the current six-month period, we recognized $0.5 million related to employee termination benefits in association with executing this plan.
For the prior period three and six months ended November 30, 2022, the Company recognized $8.1 and $8.1 million of restructuring charges. This was comprised of $1.6 million of exit cost and $2.8 million for inventory adjustments from the termination of our producer partnership in Uruguay due to a breach of the underlying contract in our International cannabis business. Additionally, amounts related to the Tilray-Aphria Arrangement Agreement for the closure of our Canadian cannabis facility in Enniskillen of $1.5 million were incurred. The Company also incurred $2.2 million of write-offs from the exit of our medical device reprocessing business in our distribution reporting segment. These exit costs were non-recurring in nature and did not have on going impacts in the current year.
Transaction (income) costs
Transaction (income) costs, which includes acquisition related income and expenses, related legal, financial advisor and due diligence cost and expenses and transaction related compensation. The three and six months ended November 30, 2023 decrease of 69% and 204% from the prior year period is related to the following items:
| ● |
the current period included costs associated with completing the HEXO Acquisition on June 22, 2023, including, but not limited to, due diligence fees of $2.4 million, discretionary incentive compensation payments of $5.8 million, transaction income from the loan amendment agreement of $(6.0) million, and HEXO director and office runoff insurance of $5.1 million; |
| ● |
costs related to the acquisition of the beverage alcohol business portfolio; |
| ● |
refunds from outstanding government rebates of $(1.1) million claims not previously recognized as assets associated with the Aphria and Tilray Arrangement Agreement; |
| ● |
in the prior year period comparative, we recognized transaction income for a change in fair value of $(18.3) million on the HTI Share Consideration’s purchase price derivative as a result of an increase in our share price on the shares paid for the HEXO convertible note receivable in the previous year. This did not recur in the current period results. |

For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized a change in fair value of its convertible debentures payable of ($3.9) million and ($6.0) million compared to ($12.7) million and ($20.6) million in the prior year same periods. The change is driven primarily by the changes in the Company’s share price, the change in the trading price of the convertible debentures payable. Additionally, for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized a change in fair value of its warrants, resulting in a gain of $6.2 million and a loss ($2.0) million compared to gains of $0.0 million and $1.6 million also as a result of the change in our share price and the exercise price of the instrument. For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized a loss of ($1.0) million and a gain of $5.2 million, resulting from the changes in foreign exchange rates during the period, compared to a gain of $0.9 million and a loss of ($24.7) million for the prior year same periods, largely associated with the recovery of the Euro. Lastly, included in other non-operating (losses) gains, net for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 was the downside protection share issuance relating to the HTI Note settlement, as described in Note 15 (Stockholders' equity) offset by a $1.1 million gain from the repurchase of the TLRY 23 convertible note.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company calculates adjusted EBITDA as net loss/net income before income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, equity in net loss of equity-method investees, purchase price accounting step-up on inventory, stock-based compensation, restructuring costs, transaction (income) costs, litigation costs net of recoveries, change in fair value of contingent consideration, unrealized currency gains and losses and other adjustments.
We believe that this presentation provides useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its results of operations and financial condition. In addition, management uses this measure for reviewing the financial results of the Company and as a component of performance-based executive compensation.
Historically, we have included lease expenses for leases that were treated differently under IFRS 16 and ASC 842 in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA, aiming to align our definition with industry peers reporting under IFRS. The decision to include these lease expenses in the Company's definition of adjusted EBITDA was based on our efforts to maintain comparability with peers. However, as the Company has continued to diversify, particularly with strategic acquisitions such as the newly acquired beverage alcohol business portfolio, this comparison is no longer relevant, accordingly, we are no longer including this adjustment.
Had the Company continued to include lease expenses that were treated differently under IFRS 16 and ASC 842 , the impact to adjusted EBITDA would have been $1.1 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023. In comparison, under the previous reconciliation, the impact to adjusted EBITDA would have been $0.7 million and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended November 30, 2022.
We do not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes certain expenses and income that are required by U.S. GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to inherent limitations as this metric reflects the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining Adjusted EBITDA. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents Adjusted EBITDA in connection with GAAP results.
For three and six months ended November 30, 2023, adjusted EBITDA decreased to $10.1 million and $20.8 million compared to $11.0 and $23.8 million from the prior year same period. The decrease was primarily driven by the aforementioned negative impacts to our cannabis gross margin.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net loss. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA as compared to net loss, the closest comparable GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA adjusts for the following:
| ● |
Non-cash amortization expenses and, although these are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future; |
| ● |
Stock-based compensation expenses, a non-cash expense and are an important part of our compensation strategy; |
| ● |
Non-cash impairment charges, as the charges are not expected to be a recurring business activity; |
| ● |
Non-cash foreign exchange gains or losses, which accounts for the effect of both realized and unrealized foreign exchange transactions. Unrealized gains or losses represent foreign exchange revaluation of foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities; |
| ● |
Non-cash change in fair value of warrant liability; |
| ● |
Interest expense, net; |
| ● |
Costs incurred to start up new facilities, and to fund emerging market operations; |
| ● |
Transaction (income) costs, which includes acquisition related income and expenses, related legal, financial advisor and due diligence cost and expenses and transaction related compensation, which vary significantly by transaction and are excluded to evaluate ongoing operating results; |
| ● |
Restructuring charges; |
| ● |
Litigation costs, net of favorable recoveries and the third party fees associated with defending these claims, includes costs related to legacy and non-operational litigation matters, legal settlements and recoveries; |
| ● |
Amortization of purchase accounting fair value step-up in inventory value included in costs of goods sold; and |
| ● |
Current and deferred income tax expenses and recoveries, which could be a significant recurring expense or recovery in our business in the future and reduce or increase cash available to us. |
Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin
Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin are non-GAAP financial measures and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Adjusted gross profit is our Gross profit (adjusted to exclude purchase price accounting valuation step-up) and adjusted gross margin is our Gross margin (adjusted to exclude purchase price accounting valuation step-up) and are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management believes that adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin are useful to our management to evaluate our business and operations, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, project our future performance, and make strategic decisions. We do not consider adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin percentage in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We actively manage our cash and investments in order to internally fund operating needs, make scheduled interest and principal payments on our borrowings, and complete acquisitions. We believe that existing cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash generated by operations, together with access to external sources of funds, will be sufficient to meet our domestic and foreign capital needs for a short and long term outlook.
For the Company's short-term liquidity requirements, we are focused on generating positive cash flows from operations and being free cash flow positive. As a result of delays in legalization across multiple markets, management continues to optimize our operating structure, headcount, as well as the elimination of other discretionary operational costs. Some of these actions may be less accretive to our adjusted EBITDA in the short term, however we believe that they will be required for our liquidity aspirations in the near term future. Additionally, the Company continues to invest our excess cash in the short-term in marketable securities which are comprised of U.S. treasury bills and term deposits with major Canadian banks.
Subsequent to the period ended November 30, 2023, the Company exchanged $18.5 million principal of APHA 24 Notes prior to their maturity, demonstrating our commitment to optimizing our capital structure and enhancing financial flexibility. We intend to continue to opportunistically purchase or exchange additional APHA 24 Notes prior to their underlying maturity date in June 2024. We believe this demonstrates and reinforces our commitment to optimizing our capital structure and enhancing financial flexibility.
For the Company's long-term liquidity requirements, we will be focused on funding operations through profitable organic and inorganic growth through acquisitions. We may need to take on additional debt or equity financing arrangements in order to achieve these ambitions on a long-term basis.

Cash and marketable securities are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Use of Non-GAAP Measures” above for additional discussion regarding these non-GAAP measures. The Company combines the Cash and cash equivalent financial statement line item, and the Marketable securities financial statement line item as an aggregate total as reconciled in the liquidity and capital resource section below. The Company’s management believes that this presentation provides useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its short-term liquidity position by combing these three GAAP metrics. |
Cash flows from operating activities
The change in net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was ($30.4) million and ($46.3) million for three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to $29.2 million and ($17.1) million for the prior year same period. This increase in cash used in the three month period was primarily related to the settlement of pre-acquisition liabilities assumed from the HEXO acquisition. Additionally, the prior period included the cash collection of the $18.3 million purchase price derivative from HTI as noted in the transaction cost section above, which did not recur in the current year.
Cash flows from investing activities
The change in net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $81.5 million and $55.2 million for three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to ($271.4) million and ($272.9) million for the prior year same period, and is a result of the sale of marketable securities in the current periods compared to investing in marketable securities in the prior periods as well as the cash used in the acquisition of various businesses, Note 7 (Business acquisitions).
Cash flows from financing activities
The change in cash (used in) provided by financing activities was ($85.4) million and ($71.3) million for three and six months ended November 30, 2023 compared to ($57.3) million and $66.4 million for the prior year same period. In the current period, cash was provided by funds from the overallotment of TLRY 27 Notes and other long term debt offset by the repurchase of convertible notes and long-term debt, while in the comparative period a larger amount of cash was provided by the ATM capital raise and smaller amounts of repurchased debt.
Subsequent Events
Refer to Part I, Financial Information, Note 27 Subsequent Events.
Contingencies
In addition to the litigation described in the Part II, Item 1 - Legal Proceedings, the Company is and may be a defendant in lawsuits from time to time in the normal course of business. While the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes the reasonably possible losses of such matters, individually and in the aggregate, are not material. Additionally, the Company believes the probable final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows or liquidity.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The accounting principles we use require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods presented. We believe in the quality and reasonableness of our critical accounting policies; however, materially different amounts may be reported under different conditions or using assumptions different from those that we have applied. The accounting estimates that have been identified as critical to our business operations and to understanding the results of our operations pertain to revenue recognition, valuation of inventory, valuation of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, stock-based compensation and valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. The application of each of these critical accounting policies and estimates is discussed in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations is disclosed in “Part I, Item 1. Note 1 – Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies” to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
There have been no material changes in market risk from those addressed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 during the six months ended November 30, 2023. See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, and summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report was made under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of November 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures (a) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported and (b) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Consistent with guidance issued by the SEC, the scope of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures did not include the internal controls over financial reporting of our recently acquired businesses including: (i) HEXO Corp., acquired June 22, 2023;, (ii) Truss Beverage Co. acquired August 3, 2023; and (iii) the portfolio of craft beer brands, assets and businesses comprising eight beer and beverage brands, acquired on September 29, 2023. These acquired businesses represented 2.3%, 0.6% and 3.2% of our consolidated assets and 5.9%, 1.3%, and 3.2% of our consolidated net revenues respectively as of and for the six months ended November 30, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our “internal control over financial reporting” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As mentioned above, the Company acquired HEXO Corp. on June 22, 2023, Truss Beverage Co., on August 3, 2023 and the eight beer and beverage brands on September 29, 2023. The Company is in the process of reviewing the internal control structure of HEXO Corp., Truss Beverage Co., and the eight beer and beverage brands and if necessary, will make appropriate changes as it integrates them into the Company’s overall internal control over financial reporting process.
In the ordinary course of business, we are at times subject to various legal proceedings and disputes, including the proceedings specifically discussed below. We assess our liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that we will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements. These legal reserves may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable or the amount of loss is not estimable, we do not accrue legal reserves. While the outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, based on information currently available, our management believes that it has established appropriate legal reserves. Any liabilities arising from pending legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows.
“Item 3. Legal Proceedings” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 includes a discussion of our legal proceedings. There have been no material changes from the legal proceedings described in our Form 10-K, except with respect to the matters disclosed and incorporated herein by reference to Note 19 (Commitments and contingencies), in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
“Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 includes a discussion of our known material risk factors, other than risks that could apply to any issuer or offering. A summary of our risk factors is included below. Except for the below risk factors, there have been no material changes from the risk factors described in our Form 10-K.

Government regulation is evolving, and unfavorable changes or lack of commercial legalization could impact our ability to carry on our business as currently conducted and the potential expansion of our business. |
| ● |
Our production and processing facilities are integral to our business and adverse changes or developments affecting our facilities may have an adverse impact on our business. |
| ● |
We face intense competition, and anticipate competition will increase, which could hurt our business. |
| ● |
Regulations constrain our ability to market and distribute our products in Canada. |
| ● |
United States regulations relating to hemp-derived CBD products are new and rapidly evolving, and changes may not develop in the timeframe or manner most favorable to our business objectives. |
| ● |
Changes in consumer preferences or public attitudes about alcohol could decrease demand for our beverage alcohol products. |
| ● |
SweetWater, Breckenridge and Montauk each face substantial competition in the beer industry or the broader market for alcoholic beverage products which could impact our business and financial results. |
| ● |
We have a limited operating history and a history of net losses, and we may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future. |
| ● |
We are subject to litigation, arbitration and demands, which could result in significant liability and costs, and impact our resources and reputation. |
| ● |
Our strategic alliances and other third-party business relationships may not achieve the intended beneficial impact and expose us to risks. |
| ● |
We may not be able to successfully identify and execute future acquisitions, dispositions or other equity transactions or to successfully manage the impacts of such transactions on our operations. |
| ● |
We are subject to risks inherent in an agricultural business, including the risk of crop failure. |
| ● |
We depend on significant customers for a substantial portion of our revenue. If we fail to retain or expand our customer relationships or significant customers reduce their purchases, our revenue could decline significantly. |
| ● |
Our products may be subject to recalls for a variety of reasons, which could require us to expend significant management and capital resources. |
| ● |
Significant interruptions in our access to certain supply chains for key inputs such as raw materials, supplies, electricity, water and other utilities may impair our operations. |
| ● |
Management may not be able to successfully establish and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting. |
| ● |
The price of our common stock in public markets has experienced and may continue to experience severe volatility and fluctuations. |
| ● |
The volatility of our stock and the stockholder base may hinder or prevent us from engaging in beneficial corporate initiatives. |
| ● |
The terms of our outstanding warrants may limit our ability to raise additional equity capital or pursue acquisitions, which may impact funding of our ongoing operations and cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. |
| ● |
We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to settle conversions of the convertible securities in cash or to repurchase the convertible securities upon a fundamental change. |
| ● |
We are subject to other risks generally applicable to our industry and the conduct of our business. |
We may experience difficulties achieving the expected benefits, including revenue and sales growth, of acquiring certain craft beer operations (the “Craft Acquisition”).
The Craft Acquisitions were completed on September 29, 2023. Efforts to achieve expected benefits of the Craft Acquisitions may require substantial resources and divert management attention. Challenges associated with achieving such benefits may include those related to sales and marketing efforts across our expanded product portfolio, operational efficiency and production optimization, and effectively integrating the Craft Acquisitions into Tilray. If we are unable to successfully integrate certain aspects of the operations of the Craft Acquisitions or experience delays, we may incur unanticipated liabilities and be unable to fully realize the potential benefit of the revenue growth, synergies and other anticipated benefits resulting from the arrangement, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Some of these factors are outside our control, and any of them could delay or increase the cost of our efforts.

The Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.” The total number of shares that the Company is authorized to issue is One Billion Two Hundred Eight Million (1,208,000,000) shares of which One Billion One Hundred Ninety Eight Million (1,198,000,000) shares shall be Common Stock (“Common Stock”), and Ten Million (10,000,000) shares of which shall be Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The Preferred Stock shall have a par value of $0.0001 per share, and the Common Stock shall have a par value of $0.0001 per share. |
Immediately upon the Effective Time, and without any further action on the part of the Company or its stockholders, each share of Class 2 common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company issued and outstanding prior to the Effective Time, shall automatically be reclassified as one fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock.
|
B. |
The number of authorized shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares of Common Stock, or Preferred Stock then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon, without a vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock, or of any series thereof, or Common Stock unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to the terms of any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock (a “Certificate of Designation”). |
|
C. |
The Preferred Stock authorized by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) is hereby expressly authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by the DGCL. The Board of Directors is also expressly authorized to increase or decrease the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding. In case the number of shares of any series shall be decreased in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status that they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series. |
|
D. |
Except as provided above, the rights, preferences, privileges, restrictions and other matters relating to the Common Stock are as follows: |

If the DGCL or any other law of the State of Delaware is amended after approval by the stockholders of this Article V to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director to the Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as so amended. |
|
C. |
Any repeal or modification of this Article V shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights or protections or increase the liability of any director under this Article V in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification. |

|
1. |
Generally. The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the Company shall be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of directors that shall constitute the Board of Directors shall be fixed exclusively by resolutions adopted by a majority of the authorized number of directors constituting the Board of Directors. |
|
2. |
Election. |
|
(a) |
Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, following the closing of the IPO, and for so long as permitted by applicable law, the directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. The Board of Directors is authorized to assign members of the Board of Directors already in office to such classes at the time the classification becomes effective. At the first annual meeting of stockholders following the closing of the IPO, the term of office of the Class I directors shall expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the second annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO, the term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of stockholders following the IPO, the term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual meeting. |
|
(b) |
At any time that applicable law prohibits a classified board as described in Article VI, Section (A)(2)(a), all directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of stockholders to hold office until the next annual meeting. The directors of the Company need not be elected by written ballot unless the Bylaws so provide. |
|
(c) |
No stockholder entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate votes to which such stockholder is entitled unless required by applicable law at the time of such election. During such time or times that applicable law requires cumulative voting, every stockholder entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate such stockholder’s votes and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be elected multiplied by the number of votes to which such stockholder’s shares are otherwise entitled, or distribute the stockholder’s votes on the same principle among as many candidates as such stockholder thinks fit. No stockholder, however, shall be entitled to so cumulate such stockholder’s votes unless (i) the names of such candidate or candidates have been placed in nomination prior to the voting and (ii) the stockholder has given notice at the meeting, prior to the voting, of such stockholder’s intention to cumulate such stockholder’s votes. If any stockholder has given proper notice to cumulate votes, all stockholders may cumulate their votes for any candidates who have been properly placed in nomination. Under cumulative voting, the candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, are elected. |
|
(d) |
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, each director shall serve until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. |
|
3. |
Removal of Directors. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, any individual director or directors may be removed (a) with or without cause, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors, or (b) with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally at an election of directors. |
|
4. |
Vacancies. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law and subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, shall, unless the Board of Directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders and except as otherwise provided by applicable law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, and not by the stockholders. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified. |
|
B. |
Stockholder Actions. No action shall be taken by the stockholders of the Company except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders called in accordance with the Bylaws, and action shall be taken by the stockholders by written consent or electronic transmission. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of the Company shall be given in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Company. |
|
C. |
Bylaws. The Board of Directors is expressly empowered to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Company. Any adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws of the Company by the Board of Directors shall require the approval of a majority of the authorized number of directors. The stockholders shall also have power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws of the Company; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Company required by law or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. |
VII.

A. |
The Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any Dual Opportunity about which a Dual Role Person acquires knowledge. A Dual Role Person shall have no duty to communicate or offer to the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies any Dual Opportunity that such Dual Role Person has communicated or offered to the Investment Fund, shall not be prohibited from communicating or offering any Dual Opportunity to the Investment Fund, and shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder, director or officer of the Company, as the case may be, resulting from (i) the failure to communicate or offer to the Company or any of its Affiliated Companies any Dual Opportunity that such Dual Role Person has communicated or offered to the Investment Fund or (ii) the communication or offer to the Investment Fund of any Dual Opportunity, so long as (x) the Dual Opportunity does not become known to the Dual Role Person expressly and solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company, and (y) the Dual Opportunity is not presented by the Dual Role Person to any party other than the Investment Fund and the Dual Role Person does not pursue the Dual Opportunity individually. |

Investment Fund, on the other hand, that was entered into before such time or any transaction entered into in the performance of such agreement, arrangement or other understanding, whether entered into before or after such time.
|
E. |
Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or obtaining any interest in any capital stock of the Company shall be deemed to have notice and to have consented to the provisions of this Article VII. |
|
F. |
The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision, or part of any provision, of this Article VII shall not affect the other provisions or parts hereof, and this Article VII shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid or unenforceable provisions or parts were omitted. |

However, if, at any time during the Term, there is any change in Applicable Laws with which a Party is required to comply (including any change to the Cannabis Act or any other Applicable Laws governing the legalization of the production, cultivation, processing, sale and distribution of cannabis in Canada), or any other change in the application or administration of Applicable Laws whether affecting a Party specifically or affecting all businesses of a similar nature to those of the Party, and, as a result of such compliance, such Party is no longer able to comply with one or more provisions of this Agreement (each such change, a “Change of Law”) the affected Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing (a “Change of Law Notice”) of the Change of Law and any such notice shall contain a description of the Change of Law and the exact obligations under this Agreement which the affected Party is delayed or prevented from performing and/or the manner in which such Party’s obligations are performed as a result of such Change of Law (the “Affected Obligations”). |
|
b. |
Upon delivery of a Change of Law Notice, the respective Chief Executive Officers of the Parties, or their designates (“Designated Representatives”) will meet within three (3) calendar days and, in good faith, use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree on amendments to this Agreement necessary and appropriate to take account of the Change of Law, so that this Agreement may continue in force (a “Change of Law Amendment”). All Change of Law Amendments shall be agreed to by the Designated Representatives of the Parties no later than five (5) calendar days from the date of the Change of Law Notice, or such later date as the Designated Representatives may mutually agree in writing (the “Change Period”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, where a Change of Law Amendment would result in additional costs being incurred disproportionately by one Party, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to ensure that the contractual arrangements remain beneficial to both Parties. |
|
c. |
During the Change Period the obligation of the affected Party to perform the Affected Obligations shall be suspended and the affected Party shall not suffer or incur any liability to the non-affected Party or other Person in connection with its delayed, modified and/or non-performance of the Affected Obligations, as the case may be; provided, however, that the affected Party has used and continues to use its good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of its delay, modified and/or non-performance of the Affected Obligations, including cooperating and collaborating with the non-affected Party to impose interim procedures and/or workarounds to minimize the impact of its delay, modification and/or non-performance of the Affected Obligations. |

Dispute Resolution. |
In the event of a dispute regarding whether any Rejected Product complies with the Specifications, Aphria and Aphria Diamond shall utilize an independent laboratory as may be acceptable to both Aphria Diamond and Aphria, acting reasonably (the “Independent Laboratory”), to evaluate whether such Rejected Product conforms with the applicable Specifications. If such issue is submitted to the Independent Laboratory for resolution, (i) Aphria Diamond and Aphria will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Independent Laboratory such documents and information relating to the disputed issue as the Independent Laboratory may request and are available to that Party or its agents and will be afforded the opportunity to make written submissions to the Independent Laboratory; and (ii) the determination by the Independent Laboratory, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to both Aphria Diamond and Aphria within five (5) days of the submission to the Independent Laboratory of the issues remaining in dispute, will be final, binding and conclusive on the Parties, absent clerical manifest error. If such Independent Laboratory determines that a Rejected Product complies with the Specifications, Aphria will bear full responsibility for any fees charged by the Independent Laboratory in respect of testing such Rejected Product and will be obligated to purchase such Product and accept shipment of such Product, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Note 1. Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) reflect the accounts of the Company for the quarterly period ended November 30, 2023. The financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements (the “Annual Financial Statements”) included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due, under the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value, as detailed in the Company’s accounting policies.
All amounts in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, notes and tables have been rounded to the nearest thousand, except par values and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated.
Certain items of the comparative figures have been changed to conform to the presentation adopted in the current period.
Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company either has a controlling voting interest or is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. A complete list of our subsidiaries that existed prior to our most recent year end is included in the Annual Report, except for the entities acquired within Note 7 (Business acquisitions), during the period ended November 30, 2023.
Marketable securities
We classify term deposits and other investments that have maturities of greater than three months but less than one year as marketable securities. The fair value of marketable securities is based on quoted market prices for publicly traded securities. Marketable securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
Restricted cash
We classify cash that is legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or usage, as restricted cash. As of November 30, 2023, the Company reported $1,576 restricted cash related to letters of credit and collateral from the acquisition of HEXO Corp. as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions).
Assets held for sale
We classify capital assets that are available and which are probable for immediate sale in their present condition, which the Company has approved the action or plan to sell, as assets held for sale. As of November 30, 2023, the Company reported $736 assets held for sale related to Kirkland lake property from the acquisition of HEXO Corp. as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions). Assets held for sale are to be measured at the lower of carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell. Disposition of assets held for sale are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
When there are changes in circumstances that were previously considered unlikely to occur, and it is decided not to proceed with a sale, an asset that was previously classified as assets held for sale is reclassified as held and used. The asset is then remeasured at the lower of its carrying amount before being classified as held for sale less the amortization that would have occurred and the fair value on the date the decision not to proceed with a sale was made. Changes in the carrying amount are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss.
Long-term investments
Investments in equity securities of entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest or significant influence are classified as an equity investment and accounted for at fair value. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price or impairments (referred to as the “measurement alternative”). In applying the measurement alternative, the Company performs a qualitative assessment on a quarterly basis and recognizes an impairment if there are sufficient indicators that the fair value of the equity investments is less than carrying values. Changes in value are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
Investments in entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest but has significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method, with the Company’s share of earnings or losses reported in earnings or losses from equity method investments on the statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. Equity method investments are recorded at cost, adjusted for the Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses, and impairment, if any, within “Interest in equity investees” on the balance sheets. The Company assesses investments in equity method investments when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may be impaired. If it is determined that the current fair value of an equity method investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, the Company will assess if the shortfall is other than temporary (OTTI). Evidence of a loss in value might include, but would not necessarily be limited to, absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or inability of the equity investee to sustain an earnings capacity that would justify the carrying amount of the investment. Once a determination is made that an OTTI exists, the investment is written down to its fair value in accordance with ASC 820 at the reporting date, which establishes a new cost basis.
Convertible notes receivable
Convertible notes receivable include various investments in which the Company has the right, or potential right to convert the indenture into common stock of the investee and are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses during the year, net of the related tax effect, are excluded from income and reflected in other comprehensive income (loss), and the cumulative effect is reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. We use judgement to assess convertible notes receivables for impairment at each measurement date. Convertible notes receivables are impaired when a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss and a new cost basis for the investment is established. We also evaluate whether there is a plan to sell the security, or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery. If neither of the conditions exist, then only the portion of the impairment loss attributable to credit loss is recorded in the statements of net loss and the remaining amount is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).
Revenue
Revenue is recognized when the control of the promised goods or services, through performance obligation, is transferred/provided to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for the performance obligations.
Excise taxes remitted to tax authorities are government-imposed excise taxes on cannabis and beer. Excise taxes are recorded as a reduction of sales in net revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and recognized as a current liability within accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, with the liability subsequently reduced when the taxes are remitted to the tax authority.
In addition, amounts disclosed as net revenue are net of excise taxes, sales tax, duty tax, allowances, discounts and rebates.
In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods or services, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration and the existence of significant financing components, if any.
We may enter into certain contracts for the sale of goods or services, which provide customers with rights of return, volume discounts, bonuses for volume/quality achievement, and/or sales allowances. In addition, the Company may provide in certain circumstances, a retrospective price reduction to a customer based primarily on inventory movement. The inclusion of these items may give rise to variable consideration. The Company uses the expected value method to estimate the variable consideration because this method provides the most accurate estimation of the amount of variable consideration to which the Company will be entitled. The Company uses historical evidence, current information and forecasts to estimate the variable consideration. The Company reduces revenue and recognizes a contract liability equal to the amount expected to be refunded to the customer in the form of a future rebate or credit for a retrospective price reduction, representing its obligation to return the customer’s consideration. The estimate is updated at each reporting period date.
On July 12, 2022, the Company and HEXO Corp. ("HEXO") entered into various commercial transaction agreements, as described in Note 26 (Segment reporting), which included an advisory services arrangement. The fees associated with the advisory services arrangement were recognized as revenue when such services were provided to HEXO. Any payments that were received for such services in advance of performance were recognized as a contract liability. On June 22, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of HEXO, as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions), simultaneously terminating the advisory services arrangement and other commercial transactions.
Transaction (income) costs
The Company expenses costs net of any gains directly attributable to business acquisitions and classifies these items as transaction (income) costs. These items include among other things, legal fees to complete the acquisition, financial advisor and due diligence costs, and transaction related compensation. These items are recognized as incurred.
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing reported net income (loss) attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing reported net income (loss) attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc. by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and the number of dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of vested share options, warrants, and RSUs and the incremental shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures and similar instruments. Shares of common stock outstanding under the share lending arrangement entered into in conjunction with the TLRY 27 Notes, see Note 13 (Convertible debentures payable) are excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share because the borrower of the shares is required under the share lending arrangement to refund any dividends paid on the shares lent.
In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, common share equivalents are not considered in periods in which a net loss is reported, as the inclusion of the common share equivalents would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, the dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding consisted of the following: 20,939,082 and 16,884,493 common shares from RSUs, 6,280,065 and 4,674,512 common shares from share options, 6,209,000 and 6,209,000 common shares for warrants and 77,181,260 and 23,981,704 common shares for convertible debentures, respectively.
New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combination - Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60) Recognition and Initial Measurement (“ASU 2023-05”), which is intended to address the accounting for contributions made to a joint venture. ASU 2023-05 is effective for the Company beginning June 1, 2026. This update will be applied prospectively on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”). The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. If by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the Codification and will not become effective for any entity. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company beginning the year ended May 31, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold on an annual basis. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company beginning the year ended June 01, 2024. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of adopting this ASU.
New accounting pronouncements recently adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Subtopic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”), which is intended to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency. The Company adopted the ASU 2021-08 beginning June 1, 2023, however, it did not have any impact on our condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Note 7. Business acquisitions
Acquisition of Montauk Brewing Company, Inc.
On November 7, 2022, Tilray acquired Montauk Brewing Company, Inc. (“Montauk”), a leading craft brewer based in Montauk, New York, which expanded our distribution network with a strong brand in the tri-state region of the U.S. In consideration for the acquisition of Montauk, and after giving effect to post-closing adjustments, the Company paid an aggregate purchase price equal to $35,123, which was comprised of $ 28,701 in cash and the remainder through the issuance of 1,708,521 shares of Tilray's common stock (having a value of $6,422 at closing). In the event that Montauk achieves certain volume and/or EBITDA targets on or before December 31, 2025, the stockholders of Montauk shall be eligible to receive additional contingent cash consideration of up to $18,000. The Company determined that the closing date fair value of this contingent consideration was $10,245 based on the inputs disclosed in Note 25 (Fair value measurements).
The table below summarizes fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the effective acquisition date.
In the event that the Montauk acquisition had occurred on June 1, 2022, the Company would have had additional net revenue of approximately $3,100 and $9,000 for the three and six months ended November 30, 2022 and net loss and comprehensive net loss would have increased by approximately $600 and $500 for the three and six months ended November 30, 2022, primarily as a result of amortization of the intangible assets acquired. This unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the realization of any expected ongoing synergies relating to the integration of Montauk.
Acquisition of HEXO Corp.
On June 22, 2023, Tilray acquired HEXO, a cannabis company in Canada (the “HEXO Acquisition”) for the purpose of expanding the Company’s revenue base, production capabilities around certain form factors and growth opportunities with the Redecan brand. In consideration for the HEXO Acquisition, the Company paid a total purchase price equivalent of $93,882, which consisted of stock consideration of $63,927, settlement of convertible notes receivable of $28,720, the fair value of HEXO stock-based compensation of $1,188 and the assumption of warrants of $47. In connection with the HEXO Acquisition, each outstanding HEXO common share was exchanged for 0.4352 of a share of Tilray common stock and each outstanding HEXO preferred share was exchanged for 0.7805 of a share of Tilray common stock. In the aggregate, the Company issued 39,705,962 shares of Tilray common stock, at a share price of $1.61 per share, in connection with the HEXO Acquisition. The Company intends to sell HEXO's Kirkland lake property and has recorded the value of the associated capital assets as an asset held for sale.
The Company is in the process of assessing the fair value of the net assets acquired and, as a result, the fair value may be subject to adjustments pending completion of final valuations and post-closing adjustments. The table below summarizes the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed for the HEXO Acquisition at the effective acquisition date as follows:
Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities was $12,253 of litigation settlement accruals as of June 22, 2023.
In the event the HEXO Acquisition had occurred on June 1, 2022, the Company would have had, on an unaudited proforma basis, additional net revenue of approximately and $7,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2023 and $20,000 and $40,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2022, respectively, and its net loss and comprehensive net loss would have increased by approximately and $1,800 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2023, and $30,000 and $60,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2022, respectively.

Acquisition of Truss Beverage Co.
On August 3, 2023, Tilray acquired the remaining 57.5% equity interest in Truss Beverage Co. ("Truss"), a cannabis beverage company, from Molson Coors Canada ("Molson"). This purchase represents the equity portion of Truss that had not been previously acquired as part of the HEXO Acquisition. The consideration paid by Tilray consisted of $74 () in cash and contingent consideration fair valued at $4,181. Tilray initially planned to divest Truss' assets and recorded the value of the associated capital assets and lease obligations as an asset held for sale. Tilray has agreed to pay Molson as contingent consideration an amount equal to 57.5% of any proceeds from any divesture, net of any costs and expenses associated with the disposition. During the period ended November 30, 2023, due to a change in circumstance in the Company's ability to sell these assets, they were subsequently reclassified as capital assets as the Company has made alternative plans for their utilization. The asset was then remeasured at the lower of its carrying amount before being classified as held for sale less the amortization that would have occurred and the fair value on the date the decision not to proceed with a sale was made. Changes in the carrying amount were recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss as amortization in cost of goods sold.
The Company is in the process of assessing the fair value of the net assets acquired and, as a result, the fair value of the net assets acquired may be subject to adjustments pending completion of final valuations and post-closing adjustments. The table below summarizes preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the effective acquisition date as follows:
In the event that the Truss acquisition had occurred on June 1, 2022 the Company would have had, on an unaudited proforma basis, additional net revenue of approximately and $3,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2023 and $3,300 and $6,300 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2022, respectively, and its net loss and comprehensive net loss would have increased by approximately and $700 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2023, and $500 and $1,200 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2022, respectively. This unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the realization of any expected ongoing synergies relating to the integration of Truss.

The Company is in the process of assessing the fair value of the net assets acquired and, as a result, the fair value may be subject to adjustments pending completion of final valuations and post-closing adjustments. The table below summarizes the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed for the Craft Acquisition at the effective acquisition date as follows:
In the event that the Craft Acquisition had occurred on June 1, 2022, the Company would have had, on an unaudited proforma basis, additional revenue of approximately $14,000 and $55,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2023 and $42,000 and $85,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2022, respectively, and its net loss and comprehensive net loss would have increased by approximately $2,000 and $5,000 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2023, and $1,400 and $900 for the three and six months period ended November 30, 2022, respectively.

Note 8. Convertible notes receivable
Convertible notes receivable is comprised of the following:
HEXO Convertible Note
On June 22, 2023, the Company completed the HEXO Acquisition as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions). Concurrently with the closing of the HEXO Acquisition, the HEXO convertible note was converted into shares of HEXO.
MedMen Convertible Note
On August 31, 2021, the Company issued 9,817,061 shares valued at $117,804 to acquire 68% interest in Superhero Acquisition L.P. (“SH Acquisition”), which purchased a senior secured convertible note issued by MedMen (the "MedMen Convertible Note"), together with certain associated warrants to acquire Class B subordinate voting shares of MedMen, in the principal amount of $165,799. The MedMen Convertible Note bears interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 6%, with a SOFR floor of 2.5% with any accrued interest being added to the outstanding principal amount. The outstanding principal amount, together with accrued interest is to be paid on August 17, 2028, the maturity date of the MedMen Convertible Note. SH Acquisition was also granted “top-up” rights enabling it (and its limited partners) to maintain its percentage ownership (on an “as-converted” basis) in the event that MedMen issues equity securities. SH Acquisition’s ability to convert the MedMen Convertible Note and exercise the Warrants is dependent upon U.S. federal legalization of cannabis or Tilray’s waiver of such requirement as well as any additional regulatory approvals.
The MedMen Convertible Note was based upon the fair value of the collateral assets net of disposal costs. In the prior year, the Company used the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions: the risk-free rate of expected life of the convertible note; volatility of 70% based on comparable companies; forfeiture rate of dividend yield of probability of legalization between 0% and and, the exercise price of the respective conversion feature.
The Company did derive any revenue or cash from MedMen's operations, and fully complies with all limitations imposed by applicable U.S. law and regulations in connection with its ownership of the MedMen Convertible Note. In addition, the Company did not recognize any interest income on the MedMen Convertible Note for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, which would have increased its value. |

The TLRY 27 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.20% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, and mature on June 15, 2027, unless earlier converted. The TLRY 27 Notes are Tilray’s general unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to all of Tilray’s indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes; equal in right of payment with any of Tilray’s unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated, including TLRY 23 and APHA 24, effectively junior in right of payment to any of Tilray’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables but excluding intercompany obligations) of Tilray’s current or future subsidiaries. Noteholders will have the right to convert their TLRY 27 Notes into shares of Tilray’s common stock at their option, at any time, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before June 15, 2027. The initial conversion rate is 376.6478 shares per $1,000 principal amount of TLRY 27 Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $2.66 per share. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.
The TLRY 27 Notes will be redeemable, in whole and not in part, at Tilray’s option at any time on or after June 20, 2025 at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, but only if the last reported sale price of Tilray’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time. If certain corporate events that constitute a fundamental change occur, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require Tilray to repurchase their TLRY 27 Notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.

The fair value of the share lending agreement has been recorded as part of the unamortized discount on the debenture. The Company expects that the selling stockholders will use their position created by such sales to establish their initial hedge with respect to their investments in the TLRY 27 Notes. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Borrowed Shares.
During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized interest expense of $2,423 and $4,485 and accretion of amortized discount interest of $2,829 and $5,624. For the same periods in the prior year there was no interest or accretion of amortized discount.

Holders of the APHA 24 Notes may convert all or any portion of such note, in multiples of $1 principal amount, at their option at any time between December 1, 2023 to the maturity date of June 1, 2024. The initial conversion which the Company may settle in cash, or common shares of Tilray, or a combination thereof, at Tilray's election, is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $11.20 per common share, subject to adjustments in certain events.
The Company may redeem for cash all or part of the APHA 24, at its option, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common shares has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on and including trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption.

Note 14. Warrant liability
As of November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023, there were 6,209,000 warrants outstanding, with an original exercise price of $5.95 per warrant, expiring March 17, 2025. Each warrant is exercisable for one common share of the Company.
The warrants contain anti-dilution price protection features, which adjust the exercise price of the warrants if the Company subsequently issues common stock at a price lower than the exercise price of the warrants. In the event additional warrants or convertible debt are issued with a lower and/or variable exercise price, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted accordingly. During the six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company issued shares which triggered the anti-dilution price protection feature lowering the exercise price to $1.61. These warrants are classified as liabilities as they are to be settled in registered shares, and the registration statement is required to be active, unless such shares may be subject to an applicable exemption from registration requirements. The holders, at their sole discretion, may elect to affect a cashless exercise, and be issued exempt securities in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the 1933 Act. In the event the Company does not maintain an effective registration statement, the Company may be required to pay a daily cash penalty equal to 1% of the number of shares of common stock due to be issued multiplied by any trading price of the common stock between the exercise date and the share delivery date, as selected by the holder. Alternatively, the Company may deliver registered common stock purchased by the Company in the open market. The Company may also be required to pay cash if it does not have sufficient authorized shares to deliver to the holders upon exercise.
The Company estimated the fair value of warrants outstanding at November 30, 2023 at $0.607 per warrant using the Black Scholes pricing model (Level 3) with the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rate of 4.4%, expected volatility of 50%, expected term of 1.30 years, strike price of $1.61 and fair value of common stock of $1.81.
Expected volatility is based on both historical and implied volatility of the Company’s common stock. |

The Supply Agreement amends and restates the existing supply agreement, effective as of September 1, 2023, and amends certain terms relating to pricing and product classes. Due to the terms stipulated in the Supply Agreement, the reduced transfer price will lead to a decrease in income attributable to non-controlling interest over the duration of the agreement.

Note 18. Income taxes
The determination of the Company’s overall effective tax rate requires significant judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The effective tax rate reflects the income earned and taxed in various United States federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases, and decreases in temporary and permanent differences between book and tax items, valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets, stock compensation, and the Company’s change in income in each jurisdiction all affect the overall effective tax rate. It is the Company’s practice to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.
The Company reported income tax (recovery) expense of $(3,380) and $3,884 for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, and income tax recovery of $(11,713) and $ (4,502) for the three and six months ended November 30, 2022. The income tax benefit in the current period varies from the US statutory income tax rate and prior period primarily due to the geographical mix of earnings and losses with no tax benefit resulting from valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions.

Legal proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we are at times subject to various legal proceedings and disputes, including the proceedings specifically discussed below. We assess our liabilities and contingencies in connection with outstanding legal proceedings utilizing the latest information available. Where it is probable that we will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements. These legal reserves may be increased or decreased to reflect any relevant developments on a quarterly basis. Where a loss is not probable or the amount of loss is not estimable, we do not accrue legal reserves. While the outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, based on information currently available and available insurance coverage, our management believes that it has established appropriate legal reserves. Any incremental liabilities arising from pending legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows. However, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, if unfavorable, may be material to our consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or consolidated cash flows.
There have been no material changes from the legal proceedings since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023, except with respect to certain aspects of the legal proceedings disclosed below:
Class Action Suits and Stockholder Derivative Suits
Authentic Brands Group Related Class Action (New York, United States)
On May 4, 2020, Ganesh Kasilingam filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“SDNY”), against Tilray Brands, Inc., Brendan Kennedy and Mark Castaneda, on behalf of himself and a putative class, seeking to recover damages for alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Kasilingam litigation”). The complaint alleges that Tilray and the individual defendants overstated the anticipated advantages of the Company’s revenue sharing agreement with Authentic Brands Group (“ABG”), announced on January 15, 2019, and that the plaintiff suffered losses when Tilray’s stock price dropped after Tilray recognized an impairment with respect to the ABG deal on March 2, 2020. On August 6, 2020, SDNY entered an order appointing Saul Kassin as Lead Plaintiff and The Rosen Law Firm, P.A. as Lead Counsel. Lead Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on October 5, 2020, which asserts the same Sections 10(b) and 20(a) claims against the same defendants on largely the same theory, and includes new allegations that Tilray’s reported inventory, cost of sales, and gross margins in its financial reports during the class period were false and misleading because Tilray improperly recorded unsellable “trim” as inventory and understated the cost of sales for its products.
On September 27, 2021, the U.S. District Court entered an Opinion & Order granting the Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended complaint in the Kasilingam litigation without prejudice. On December 3, 2021, the lead plaintiff filed a second amended complaint alleging similar claims against Tilray and Brendan Kennedy. The defendants moved to dismiss the second amended complaint on February 2, 2022. On September 28, 2022, the Court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. On October 12, 2022, the Company filed a motion for reconsideration and/or interlocutory appeal of this Court decision.
On August 21, 2023, the U.S. District Court granted Tilray’s motion for reconsideration and dismissed the second amended complaint with leave to amend one final time. On September 27, 2023, plaintiff filed a third amended complaint. Tilray continues to believe that all of the underlying claims in the amended complaint are without merit and should be dismissed with prejudice.
Legal Proceedings Related to Contractual Obligations
420 Investments Ltd. Litigation
On February 21, 2020, 420 Investments Ltd., as Plaintiff (“420 Investments”), filed a lawsuit against Tilray Brands, Inc. and High Park Shops Inc. as Defendants, in Calgary, Alberta in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta. In August 2019, Tilray and High Park entered into an Arrangement Agreement with 420 Investments and others (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, High Park was to acquire the securities of 420 Investments. In February 2020, Tilray and High Park gave notice of termination of the Agreement. 420 Investments alleges that the termination was unlawful and without merit and further alleges that the Defendants had no legal basis to terminate. 420 Investments alleges that the Defendants did not meet their contractual and good faith obligations under the Agreement. 420 Investment seeks damages in the stated amount of plus in aggravated damages. The Tilray and High Park Statement of Defense and counterclaim were both filed on March 20, 2020. 420 Investment’s Statement of Defense to our counterclaim was filed on April 20, 2020. Respectively, 420 Investments and Tilray / High Park served each other with their Affidavits of Records on August 25, 2020 and November 30, 2020. Tilray and High Park cross-examined the litigation representative of 420 Investments. The Company denies the Plaintiff’s allegations and intends to continue to vigorously defend this litigation matter, although there can be no assurance as to its outcome.
In February 2023, Tilray and High Park filed an Application for Summary Judgment to collect an unpaid bridge loan made to 420 Investments on August 28, 2019, relating to the subject transaction. That debt was repayable in March 2020, but was never repaid. The application is pending and a decision from the Court is expected on Tilray’s Application for Summary Judgment in the calendar year of 2024.
Docklight Litigation Settlement
On November 5, 2021 Docklight Brands, Inc. (“Docklight”) filed a complaint against the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, High Park Holdings, Ltd. in Superior Court of the State of Washington, King County. Docklight claimed breach of contract against High Park arising from a 2018 license agreement pursuant to which Docklight licensed certain Bob Marley-related brands to High Park (as amended in 2020 and 2021, the “High Park License”). In addition, Docklight brought a negligent misrepresentation claim against Tilray, alleging that certain individuals at Tilray or Aphria had made false statements to Docklight in order to induce Docklight to waive Docklight’s alleged right to terminate the High Park License for change-of-control on the basis of the 2021 Tilray-Aphria Arrangement Agreement. Effective October 10, 2023, the parties entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which the Company paid an aggregate amount equal to $3,000 to Docklight in exchange for mutual releases and a dismissal of the pending Docklight litigation claims.
MediPharm / HEXO Litigation Settlement
In July 2022, MediPharm Labs Inc. (“MediPharm) and Peter Hwang obtained a judgement for damages against HEXO Inc. in an amount equal to CAD $9,800, together with costs and interest, in connection with HEXO’s alleged failure to pay for certain products. Subsequent to Tilray’s acquisition of HEXO, on October 2, 2023, MediPharm, HEXO and Tilray reached a settlement of the MediPharm judgment. Specifically, the terms of the settlement consisted of the following: (i) CAD $3,000 cash payment to MediPharm; (ii) issuance to MediPharm of a product supply credit for CAD $1,000 for the purchase of Tilray cannabis products at market pricing; (iii) Tilray acquired all of the outstanding shares of a MediPharm subsidiary in exchange for the issuance by Tilray of 1,573,152 Tilray common shares; (iv) payment of CAD $210 to Peter Hwang; and (v) dismissal of the MediPharm judgment and mutual releases of all claims.

Note 25. Fair value measurements
Financial instruments
The Company has classified its financial instruments as described in Note 3 Significant accounting policies in our Annual Financial Statements.
The carrying values of accounts receivable, bank indebtedness and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short periods to maturity.
At November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023 the Company had long-term debt of $4,472 and $3,280, respectively, and the principal portion of convertible debentures payable of $309,240 and $464,070, respectively, subject to fixed interest rates. The Company’s long-term debt is valued based on discounting the future cash outflows associated with the long-term debt. The discount rate is based on the incremental premium above market rates for the U.S. Department of the Treasury securities of similar duration. In each period thereafter, the incremental premium is held constant while the U.S. Department of the Treasury security is based on the then current market value to derive the discount rate.
The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis are its convertible notes receivable, equity investments measured at fair value, convertible debentures measured at fair value, acquisition-related contingent consideration, and warrant liability.
Convertible notes receivable and long-term investments are recorded at fair value. The estimated fair value is determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model, probability of legalization and is classified as Level 3.
Convertible debentures payable are recorded at fair value when elected or required under US GAAP. Specifically, the APHA 24 instrument's estimated fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is classified as Level 3.
Certain equity investments recorded at fair value have quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and are classified as Level 1. The Company classified securities with observable inputs as Level 2 and without a quoted market price as Level 3.
The warrants associated with the warrant liability are classified as Level 3 derivatives. Consequently, the estimated fair value of the warrant liability is determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Until the warrants are exercised, expire, or other facts and circumstances lead the warrant liability to be reclassified to stockholders’ equity, the warrant liability (which relates to warrants to purchase shares of common stock) is marked-to-market each reporting period with the change in fair value recorded in change in fair value of warrant liability. Any significant adjustments to the unobservable inputs disclosed in the table below would have a direct impact on the fair value of the warrant liability.
The contingent consideration from the acquisitions of SweetWater, Montauk, and Truss due in December 2023, December 2025, and upon the triggering event if met, respectively and are payable in cash, is determined by discounting future expected cash outflows at a discount rate in the range of 5% - 11.4%, and probability of achievement of 25% and 90%. The unobservable inputs into the future expected cash outflows result in a fair value measurement classified as Level 3. During the six months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease in fair value of $10,584, inclusive of changes in foreign exchange, was recognized and was comprised of a decrease of fair value of $13,218 for the contingent consideration from the Sweetwater acquisition as a result of a lower probability of achieving the incentive targets which was offset by an increase in fair value of $2,411 for the contingent consideration from the Montauk acquisition as a result of a higher probability of achieving the incentive targets. Lastly, the addition of $4,181 of contingent consideration liability was assumed as part of the Truss acquisition and an increase in fair value of $223 as a result of foreign exchange.
The balances of assets and liabilities categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy measured at fair value on a recurring basis are reconciled, as follows:
The unrealized gain (loss) on fair value for the convertible debenture, the warrant liability, contingent consideration, and debt securities classified under available-for-sale method is recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss using the following inputs:
Items measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis
The Company's prepaids and other current assets, long lived assets, including property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets are measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There have been no changes to the Company’s capital management approach in the period. The Company considers its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as capital. |

| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company either has a controlling voting interest or is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. A complete list of our subsidiaries that existed prior to our most recent year end is included in the Annual Report, except for the entities acquired within Note 7 (Business acquisitions), during the period ended November 30, 2023.
|
| Marketable Securities, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Marketable securities
We classify term deposits and other investments that have maturities of greater than three months but less than one year as marketable securities. The fair value of marketable securities is based on quoted market prices for publicly traded securities. Marketable securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
|
| Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Restricted cash
We classify cash that is legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or usage, as restricted cash. As of November 30, 2023, the Company reported $1,576 restricted cash related to letters of credit and collateral from the acquisition of HEXO Corp. as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions).
|
| Assets Held-for-Sale, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Assets held for sale
We classify capital assets that are available and which are probable for immediate sale in their present condition, which the Company has approved the action or plan to sell, as assets held for sale. As of November 30, 2023, the Company reported $736 assets held for sale related to Kirkland lake property from the acquisition of HEXO Corp. as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions). Assets held for sale are to be measured at the lower of carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell. Disposition of assets held for sale are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
When there are changes in circumstances that were previously considered unlikely to occur, and it is decided not to proceed with a sale, an asset that was previously classified as assets held for sale is reclassified as held and used. The asset is then remeasured at the lower of its carrying amount before being classified as held for sale less the amortization that would have occurred and the fair value on the date the decision not to proceed with a sale was made. Changes in the carrying amount are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss.
|
| Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Long-term investments
Investments in equity securities of entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest or significant influence are classified as an equity investment and accounted for at fair value. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost with adjustments for observable changes in price or impairments (referred to as the “measurement alternative”). In applying the measurement alternative, the Company performs a qualitative assessment on a quarterly basis and recognizes an impairment if there are sufficient indicators that the fair value of the equity investments is less than carrying values. Changes in value are recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss, within the line, “Non-operating income (expense)”.
Investments in entities over which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest but has significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method, with the Company’s share of earnings or losses reported in earnings or losses from equity method investments on the statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. Equity method investments are recorded at cost, adjusted for the Company’s share of undistributed earnings or losses, and impairment, if any, within “Interest in equity investees” on the balance sheets. The Company assesses investments in equity method investments when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may be impaired. If it is determined that the current fair value of an equity method investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, the Company will assess if the shortfall is other than temporary (OTTI). Evidence of a loss in value might include, but would not necessarily be limited to, absence of an ability to recover the carrying amount of the investment or inability of the equity investee to sustain an earnings capacity that would justify the carrying amount of the investment. Once a determination is made that an OTTI exists, the investment is written down to its fair value in accordance with ASC 820 at the reporting date, which establishes a new cost basis.
|
| Financing Receivable [Policy Text Block] | Convertible notes receivable
Convertible notes receivable include various investments in which the Company has the right, or potential right to convert the indenture into common stock of the investee and are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses during the year, net of the related tax effect, are excluded from income and reflected in other comprehensive income (loss), and the cumulative effect is reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. We use judgement to assess convertible notes receivables for impairment at each measurement date. Convertible notes receivables are impaired when a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, an impairment charge is recorded in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss and a new cost basis for the investment is established. We also evaluate whether there is a plan to sell the security, or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery. If neither of the conditions exist, then only the portion of the impairment loss attributable to credit loss is recorded in the statements of net loss and the remaining amount is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).
|
| Revenue [Policy Text Block] | Revenue
Revenue is recognized when the control of the promised goods or services, through performance obligation, is transferred/provided to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for the performance obligations.
Excise taxes remitted to tax authorities are government-imposed excise taxes on cannabis and beer. Excise taxes are recorded as a reduction of sales in net revenue in the consolidated statements of operations and recognized as a current liability within accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, with the liability subsequently reduced when the taxes are remitted to the tax authority.
In addition, amounts disclosed as net revenue are net of excise taxes, sales tax, duty tax, allowances, discounts and rebates.
In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods or services, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration and the existence of significant financing components, if any.
We may enter into certain contracts for the sale of goods or services, which provide customers with rights of return, volume discounts, bonuses for volume/quality achievement, and/or sales allowances. In addition, the Company may provide in certain circumstances, a retrospective price reduction to a customer based primarily on inventory movement. The inclusion of these items may give rise to variable consideration. The Company uses the expected value method to estimate the variable consideration because this method provides the most accurate estimation of the amount of variable consideration to which the Company will be entitled. The Company uses historical evidence, current information and forecasts to estimate the variable consideration. The Company reduces revenue and recognizes a contract liability equal to the amount expected to be refunded to the customer in the form of a future rebate or credit for a retrospective price reduction, representing its obligation to return the customer’s consideration. The estimate is updated at each reporting period date.
On July 12, 2022, the Company and HEXO Corp. ("HEXO") entered into various commercial transaction agreements, as described in Note 26 (Segment reporting), which included an advisory services arrangement. The fees associated with the advisory services arrangement were recognized as revenue when such services were provided to HEXO. Any payments that were received for such services in advance of performance were recognized as a contract liability. On June 22, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of HEXO, as described in Note 7 (Business acquisitions), simultaneously terminating the advisory services arrangement and other commercial transactions.
|
| Transaction Costs Policy [Policy Text Block] | Transaction (income) costs
The Company expenses costs net of any gains directly attributable to business acquisitions and classifies these items as transaction (income) costs. These items include among other things, legal fees to complete the acquisition, financial advisor and due diligence costs, and transaction related compensation. These items are recognized as incurred.
|
| Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing reported net income (loss) attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing reported net income (loss) attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc. by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and the number of dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of vested share options, warrants, and RSUs and the incremental shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures and similar instruments. Shares of common stock outstanding under the share lending arrangement entered into in conjunction with the TLRY 27 Notes, see Note 13 (Convertible debentures payable) are excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share because the borrower of the shares is required under the share lending arrangement to refund any dividends paid on the shares lent.
In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, common share equivalents are not considered in periods in which a net loss is reported, as the inclusion of the common share equivalents would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, the dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding consisted of the following: 20,939,082 and 16,884,493 common shares from RSUs, 6,280,065 and 4,674,512 common shares from share options, 6,209,000 and 6,209,000 common shares for warrants and 77,181,260 and 23,981,704 common shares for convertible debentures, respectively.
