1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

4Front Ventures Corp. (“4Front” or the “Company”) exists pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). On July 31, 2019, 4Front Holdings LLC (“Holdings”) completed a Reverse Takeover Transaction (“RTO”) with Cannex Capital Holdings, Inc. (“Cannex”) whereby Holdings acquired Cannex, for accounting purposes, and the shareholders of Holdings became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The subordinate voting shares of the Company are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the ticker “FFNT” and are quoted on the OTC (OTCQX: FFNTF).

The Company has two primary operating segments: THC Cannabis and CBD Wellness. With regard to its THC Cannabis segment, as of June 30, 2021, the Company operates five dispensaries in Massachusetts, Illinois, and Michigan, primarily under the “MISSION” brand name. As of June 30, 2021, the Company operates two production facilities in Massachusetts and Illinois and produces the majority of products that are sold at its own Massachusetts and Illinois dispensaries. Also, as part of its THC Cannabis segment, the Company sells equipment, supplies and intellectual property to cannabis producers in the state of Washington.  

The Company’s CBD Wellness segment is focused upon its ownership and operation of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pure Ratios Holdings, Inc. (“Pure Ratios”), a CBD-focused wellness company in California, that sells non-THC products throughout the United States.

Management is currently continuing to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position and results of its operations the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. See “Recent Developments – COVID-19”.
