1. Description of Business and Summary

Tilray, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively “Tilray”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), is a global medical cannabis research, cultivation, processing and distribution organization, and is one of the leading suppliers of adult-use cannabis in Canada. The Company also markets and distributes food products from hemp seed and offers a broad range of natural and organic hemp based food products and ingredients that are sold through retailers and websites globally.

Prior to January 2018, the Company operated its business under Decatur Holdings, B.V. (“Decatur”), which was formed in March 2016. Decatur was incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands on March 8, 2016 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Privateer Holdings, Inc. (“Privateer Holdings”). On January 25, 2018, Privateer Holdings transferred the equity interest in Decatur to Tilray. Decatur was subsequently dissolved on December 27, 2018. The transfers of the equity interests were between entities under common control and were recorded at their carrying amounts. The consolidated financial statements of the Company (“the financial statements”) are prepared, on a continuity of interest basis, reflecting the historical financial information of Decatur prior to January 25, 2018.

On December 15, 2020, we entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement” with Aphria Inc. (“Aphria”), pursuant to which Tilray will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Aphria pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) under the Business Corporations Act (the “Arrangement”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, each outstanding common share of Aphria outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Arrangement will be transferred to Tilray in exchange for 0.8381 of a share (of Tilray Class 2 common stock). The Agreements have not been finalized and as such, the financial statements do not reflect the effect of the transaction.
