Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone and welcome to Curaleaf Holdings’ fourth quarter and year end 2019 conference call.

Today I am joined by Boris Jordan, Executive Chairman; Joe Lusardi, Chief Executive Officer; Joe Bayern, President; Neil Davidson, Chief Operating Officer; and Michael Carlotti, Chief Financial Officer. Earlier today we issued a press release announcing our results for the fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2019 as well as our acquisition of Three Arrow Alternative Care Dispensaries in Connecticut and an operational update on coronavirus.

dollars unless otherwise indicated. With that, I would now like to turn the call over to Executive Chairman, Boris Jordan.

Thank you, Dan. Thank you all for joining our call during this challenging time for our country and the world.

Before we begin with our prepared remarks, I would like to recognize and thank more than 2,200 employees of Curaleaf across the country for their hard work and [Technical Difficulty] has come together to deliver on our mission of improving the lives of our customers and maintain access to our products. Over the past several weeks, the entire management team has been focused on taking all the necessary steps to adapt our business in this fast moving and challenging environment.

Later in the call, Joe will go into more detail, including the range of new procedures, policies and technologies we have implemented in direct response to the coronavirus. The health and well-being of our employees and our customers is our number one priority.

Given the vertically integrated nature of our business, coupled with the overhauling demand for cannabis, we believe Curaleaf is well positioned to manage through the current uncertain environment. So far, we have not experienced any significant interruptions in our supply chain.

Most importantly, states understand the cannabis’ essential to the health and well-being of millions of Americans. In fact, dispensaries in Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, Massachusetts and California have been allowed to stay open to certain customers and we have seen a significant uptick in demand.

I can’t emphasize enough how significant this is. State governments are explicitly recognizing the vital role that cannabis plays in the health and well-being of their citizens and is the significant economic driver to their economy.

Therefore we have been deemed an essential service in almost every state in which we operate. We see this as an enormous validation and legitimatization of the industry that cannabis continues to become increasingly mainstream.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the governors and their hardworking staff for their leadership and commitment to help ensure that our customers can access the cannabis product they have come to rely on without interruption during this difficult time. We will continue to take a leadership role on behalf of Curaleaf and the cannabis industry working closely with the regulators in all the states where we operate.

Over the last 5 years, we have developed close relationship with our customers by listening to their needs and delivering products that fundamentally change their lives for the better. The largest part of our customer base remains medical cannabis patients, which continues to grow.

So in this difficult time, we have seen increased demand for cannabis creating a need for innovative and creative solutions from cannabis dispensary to adapt to the new restrictions that are in place related to the coronavirus situation. We are doing everything in our power to ensure they continue to receive the highest quality product to the least amount of risk possible.

We would like to thank our patients and customers for their continued support in more patients. Lastly, I am confident that we have the resources and leadership to successfully navigate the near-term challenges presented by coronavirus emerging even stronger and better positioned.

Our company has differentiated itself by embracing a disciplined vertical integration strategy executing on an aggressive yet focused acquisition plan and delivering operational excellence. At Curaleaf, we are deeply committed to quality and transparency while we continue to create innovative new products for our customers.

While the coronavirus has created concern and disruption in our daily lives and put significant pressure on the capital markets and share prices, the state of our business and underlying business fundamentals remains strong. Our focus in the immediate term is to ensure that we can continue to operate in a way that mitigates and minimizes the risk to our employees and our patients and customers.

Over the long-term, we will continue to focus on execution and we remain confident that we are building a company that will deliver strong returns for our shareholders. Now, I would like to address our balance sheet.

Curaleaf is the strongest and most well-capitalized business in the U.S. industry.

Thanks to our timely non-dilutive debt deal, we have more than sufficient cash on hand to execute on all our growth plans and acquisitions in 2020. In addition, we have one of the stronger shareholder bases in the industry.

This group, which includes me, will always support the group of Curaleaf and if necessary provide additional capital to participate in any attractive opportunities that emerge in the marketplace. Curaleaf has grown rapidly to become the largest cannabis provider in the United States, because we have committed key shareholders to recognize the enormous opportunity that lies ahead.

As a group, we stand committed to providing up to $100 million of additional liquidity should high return acquisitions or products present themselves. The transactions we announced this month in Colorado and Connecticut are examples of our continued commitment to finding growth assets that augment our existing portfolio.

Blue Kudu, a producer of premium cannabis, chocolates and gummies gives us a manufacturing platform to further build the select brand in Colorado, while the Arrow is the largest dispensary in Connecticut with locations in Hartford, Milford and Stamford. We are excited to introduce select to the mature, but robust Colorado market and we have already seen strong reception from discerning Colorado consumers.

Incoming vertical and Connecticut market lets us reach customers reach directly with our product offering and helps us achieve maximum operating leverage and a leadership position in another medical state. Curaleaf has consistently been acquiring and developing an unmatched collection of assets.

In calendar 2019 alone, we deployed over $96 million of capital into the maintenance and expansion of our operation. These investments have been critical to our organic growth strategies and now these assets are poised for growth and significant cash flow generation this year.

Since our public offering in October 2018, we have successfully closed on and integrated 11 businesses, including Select, which collectively represents 16 dispensaries, 6 cultivation sites and 15 processing sites. These acquisitions have meaningfully expanded our presence and made us more vertically integrated in key states such as Arizona, California, Oregon, Maryland and Nevada as we demonstrate the leverage inherent in the business.

Reflecting upon 2019 I am pleased with the progress the company made during a challenging year, which included the big crisis and a few regulatory delays as we worked on expanding access in new as well as existing markets. We have thoughtfully expanded further and faster than almost any cannabis company in the world.

More importantly, we have begun to realize the fruits of our investment. Most of our markets are now generating operating cash flow.

As of February, we have four states already achieving $50 million plus in annualized revenue run rate. We are at or near market leading position in nine states and it is our goal to be number one in each of our state of operation over time.

At Curaleaf, we have a national footprint, a strong leadership position and a significant scale in most of our markets this growth was directly reflected in the near tripling of managed revenues of $251 million in 2019 and marking our first full year of positive adjusted EBITDA reaching over $26 million. As such, we expect 2020 to be yet another year of growth for Curaleaf.

In fact quarter one of 2020 is shaping up to be a record quarter. We have set in place key growth initiatives as well as our recently announced acquisitions for 2020 that spent while demand in quarter one was increased notably as we look on to 2020.

We will be monitoring this vast moving environment closely as well as the overall economic health of the U.S. consumer.

Our 2020 strategic plans are supported by an outstanding management team to help achieve our business goals. Curaleaf is continuing to provide customers with outstanding service quality products as well as superior customer dispenser experience.

This is a truly unique and dynamic factor as demand far outstrips supply in almost every market in which we operate. We continue to work on the closing of the Grassroots transaction having cleared HSR.

We have submitted documentation with the various state regulators for review and are wanting to secure final approval. While coronavirus driven market conditions have created some timing of uncertainty based on the availability of regulators time both Curaleaf and Grassroots remain committed to closing the transaction, we are also working on converting the non-profit entities in Maine and New Jersey to full profit and have submitted necessary documentation with the state regulators for review and are working to secure final approval.

The result in change of ownership will allow for the consolidation of Maine and New Jersey in our financials, thereby eliminating the need to report manage revenue and focus on providing the financial reporting. Estimating the timing of such approvals has recently become more challenging staffing levels at the various state agencies and the regulators as their short-term priority shipped to the coronavirus as such we believe the best way to view our business in the near-term is on managed revenue basis.

This would include results from Curaleaf and Select from when it was officially acquired on February 1. Neil will discuss our forward outlook in more detail in his section.

I want our investors to know I continue to be heavily involved in Curaleaf driven by large and long-term investment time horizon. I, the board and the management remain firmly focused on and committed to driving shareholder value.

We are focused on maintaining a disciplined capital allocation strategy, which limits capital investments to only high potential return projects which are additive to our already diversified position in the U.S. cannabis market as part of our long-term commitment to shareholder value.

In January, we ensure that certain key shareholders are representing 300.6 million shares to an amended and expanded lockup. This new lockup allows for a more orderly unlock of not more than 5% on an average of approximately 17.2 million shares per quarter beginning March 31, 2020 critically.

I and several other key shareholders representing 71% of these stock shares have no intention of selling a single share during this important phase of high growth development. I will now turn the call over to Joe Lusardi.

Thanks Boris. Now going to comments on board, I would like to recognize our employees for the unwavering commitment to our mission as well as our management team for their leadership navigating and adapting to the quickly evolving environment.

During this extraordinary time I am reminded how essential our business is to the lives of our customer and we are dedicated to meeting their needs. I would also like to thank our customers across the country for their continued support to Curaleaf.

Our leadership team is monitoring and effectively managing coronavirus related action at a daily basis. We are implementing new procedures and practices in coordination with regulators so that we can achieve our mission to serve the needs of our customer.

Given the nature of our business we already have a strong culture of strict sanitation protocols in all our facilities. We have further enhanced our sanitation protocol frequency with standards that go well beyond current relations including more frequent sanitation and enhanced use of protective equipment, including gloves and masks.

As this crisis evolves, we are adjusting with it so we can maintain continuity of supplies as well as service to our customers. We are confident we will continue to manage our company effectively through duration of this crisis with the support of regulators, state leadership and our dedicated employee base.

As Boris mentioned, we have been deemed an essential service in almost every state we operate and we have taken steps to protect our company during this crisis. We will continue to work in close collaboration with regulators as well as state and local governments to fulfill our machine of improving the lives of our customers.

We are implementing additional expedites hiring as needed in our facility. We are continuing with our construction project which will help us meet higher demand.

Our supply chain is strong. We have equipment, packaging and gross supplies for a 90-day period and continue to collaborate with supply vendors on creative solutions for future needs.

We are adjusting our dispensary schedules to accommodate increased demand and prioritizing medical customers most vulnerable to coronavirus, including dedicated senior hours. We are enforcing social distancing, increasing sanitation and hygiene measures and utilizing technology to minimize contact.

Additionally, we are helping to protect the health and well-being of our customers and employees by working to employ curbside delivery, mobile free ordering, express pickup and a new waitlist ordering technology app. It is important to note that many of the unique industry technologies will become a permanent part of our business.

Our banking operations and cash pickup have been uninterrupted. Leadership during times of adversity is a true test of company’s strength, but I am proud to say that our management teams across the country are stepping up to the challenge.

We took steps to enhance our bench strength and it’s paying off. Recent additions include Joe Bayern, President of Curaleaf Holdings who joined in December.

On February 1, we announced as part of the closing of that transaction, we enhanced the management team with addition of Cameron Forni as President of Select and Jason White in the newly created role of Chief Marketing Officer. At that time, Neil Davidson was promoted as Chief Operating Officer and Michael Carlotti, a seasoned financial executive joined as Curaleaf’s new CFO.

Lastly, Mark Russ joined as Senior Vice President of Sales to oversee national sales of all Curaleaf brand. Our expanded management team has brought an unmatched level of depth and experience within the new cannabis industry.

The unique skills are being leveraged on a daily basis to manage through this crisis, all while developing the business for further growth. 2019 was a banner year for Curaleaf.

We announced two transformative transactions in Select and Grassroots. We acquired additional operating assets and licenses that more than doubled our footprint and grew our customer base by 366%.

We opened our first adult-use dispensary in Massachusetts and continue to prudently invest in our capital in key markets. The fourth quarter was a record quarter for the company as we delivered solid sequential growth, achieved record managed and total revenues as well as the highest adjusted EBITDA in company history.

We continue to focus on developing operations in key markets and have already begun to integrate Select. I am highly encouraged by the continued growth of our business which continues to scale each quarter.

For fiscal year 2019 we generated over $26 million of adjusted EBITDA demonstrating the operating leverage that exists in our business. We were pleased with progress we made in 2019 and we believe the earnings power of our operational asset base is just beginning to show its potential.

We were awarded new licenses in important limited license medical markets. In Utah we are provisionally awarded a retail and processing license.

And in Pennsylvania, we were recently awarded one of the first 7 clinical registrant licenses that will allow us to grow, process and distribute medical cannabis through 6 stores. We look forward to working with the state of Utah in the state of Pennsylvania as well as our medical partners in Pennsylvania to provide the highest quality care to customers.

Taken together, we believe Curaleaf is a best positioned company to take advantage of the fastest growing cannabis opportunity in the United States. As our operations continue to scale, these states are now self-supporting and generating increasing amounts of operating cash flow.

As such, we remain firmly focused on operational excellence to drive both top and bottom line results in 2020. Turning to a recap of fourth quarter operations, I would now like to review our significant progress in key states.

In Florida, we have been designated as an essential service to continue to serve patients through our free statewide delivery service at our 28 stores. At each store, we offer express pickup where patient can order online receive notification when the order is ready and pickup their order at the store, I mean once it is ready for a quick consumer experience.

We also offer drive free service at multiple locations, have prioritized senior citizen hour during the first hour of operations each day. Our two production facilities continue to operate on schedule and we have been able to secure DLH approval for over 40 temporary workers to ensure we will continue to regularly harvest and manufacture medicine to our patients.

We continue to see growth in our business in the fourth quarter that remained product constrained as we work to catch up our supply chain to a robust flow demand that exists in the market. Certainly our cultivation facilities have been able to consistently increase power supply driving what we expect to be a record month to our Florida business in March.

By this summer, we expect our supply chain will be able to support the largest store count. We have 11 new stores in various stages of development and expect to finish the year with a total of 40 stores open.

With this increased cultivation capacity and new wafer stores here with a lot of presence in every major population center throughout Florida, with over 320,000 active registered patients in this state and have a 10,000 patients in month registering for the program, Florida remains one of the fastest growing medical cannabis markets in the country having nearly double than 2019, we are anxiously awaiting the regulations on edible and look forward to bring whole new class of products to the market in 2020 consumers have shown a strong demand for different form factors and different product concentrations. Accordingly, we were happy to see the legislation to limit the concentration recently defeated in Massachusetts medical cannabis has a designated as an essential service and we continue to serve patients at our two medical stores in Hannover and Oxford, where we also offer express pickup and a prioritized senior citizen hour each day.

While we are disappointed that Massachusetts is now the first and only state that designates licensed adult-use dispensaries as nonessential and telling us to pause adult-use sales for 2 weeks, we continue to fight for an essential services designation for adult-use. Meanwhile, our Webster production facility operating on schedule with regular harvest prior to the current change in the adult-use in January, we had opened our second adult-use dispensary and the first on Cape Cod in Provincetown and in March opened our third adult use dispensary in Ware, featuring our new enhanced order design offering, a more elevated retail experience coupled with our dispensary in Oxford, the initial results from Massachusetts that adult-use location was promising.

We expect these new locations will position us well during the short-term coronavirus-related adult-use restrictions are lifted. We still expect the overall market to grow dramatically this year and we continue to build out another 50,000 square feet of capacity in Massachusetts to fully really realize maximum potential of our business.

We continue to work with regulators to close our transaction with Alternative Therapies Group, which for now has been included in managed revenue that ultimately will move to wholesale revenue once we close on the acquisition of ATG’s cultivation and processing assets. Needless to say, we remain optimistic about the overall prospects of the adult-use market in 2020.

In New Jersey, our dispensary, the largest on the East Coast has been designated as an essential service and we continue to serve patients at our 12,000 square feet in store in Belmar where we offer a prioritized senior citizen hour at the beginning of each day at the store. We have also implemented a reservation management app where patients can order online, drive to the store and receive a text message when it is their turn to come in shop ensuring a one on one interaction and eliminating line by allowing patients to safely wait for their orders in the orders in the confines of their cars.

To this end, it could be work with local officials to secure over 50 additional nearby parking slots to better service the increased demand. New Jersey once again produced record quarterly results during the quarter.

We continue to host our product and we remain the largest provider by revenue in market share in the state. The team also continued to operate on schedule and even secured final state and local approval last week to begin cultivation activities in a 7,200 square foot supplemental production building on the Belmar campus.

The New Jersey department has helped also recently approved expedited hiring regulations, which gives us confidence to be able to staff our facility as needed for the foreseeable future so we can continue to meet the needs of our patients. We continue to monitor the progress of potential adult-use legislation which is on the 2020 balance and given recent polling, seems to have strong support.

In addition, the state continues to improve policies for our medical cannabis to benefit residents of the state. In anticipation of increased demand, we have security a property in Central New Jersey with an existing 100,000 square foot warehouse, plus 68 acres of land, which we expect to develop later this year.

We are also working hard to secure approvals necessary to open additional dispensaries and to capture the growing demand of the New Jersey market. Lastly, we are actively working through the process of converting your operation to a for-profit entity and we are working closely with the state of New Jersey to complete that process.

Moving on to New York, we have been designated as an essential service and continue to serve patients. Curaleaf remains 1 of only 10 license operators in the state with 4 stores to offer a prioritized senior hour at the beginning of each day.

We have also implemented a reservation management app and curbside pickup so patients can order ahead, receive confirmation that the order is ready and pickup their order from the dispensary associates at the door or curbside of the store once its ready. We also offer delivery services at certain locations.

Additionally, we are offering virtual patient consultations and we continue to operate on schedule at our Ravena production facility. In the fourth quarter, our four locations achieved 22% market share, doubled their fair share according to state tax data.

We look forward to continuing to build momentum as the program and form factors expand. In fact, our introduction of Flower Pod to the market beginning of September led to strong double-digit growth well in excess of market growth during the fourth quarter.

In February, we launched CuraChews in the market, the first chewable gel product in the state of New York. The legislative debate around adult-use has been kick-started once again in the new year with the Governor indicating he is supportive of introducing legislation related to adult-use cannabis.

Whether adult-use comes to fruition or not we remain well-positioned to service the needs of our medical patients in this state and adult-use custom or should legislation be enacted. In Maryland, we continue to serve patients at our stores and have launched a reservation management app and express pickup at each location with curbside side pickup available as well.

We also offer prioritized senior citizens hour at the beginning of each day and are operating on schedule at our production facility in Frederick. Regulators in Maryland have recently approved expedited hiring regulation, which gives us confidence we will be able to staff our facility as needed.

As one of the only growers in the state operating four dispensaries, we continue to optimize our business. As we ramp up, we believe our ability to drive increased and reliable repeat traffic to our dispensaries will allow us to continue to achieve higher wallet share than our peers.

Construction on our new processing and manufacturing operation in Frederick was completed and we continue to work with regulators on incorporating edibles production. Maryland is a terrific market.

We are optimistic that our vertical platform and additional cultivation capacity we plan to bring online will drive significant growth helping meet demand should adult-use come to Maryland. Moving on to Connecticut, we have been designated as an essential service and continued to operate on schedule out of our Simsbury production facility.

Work has also been completed on our new 50,000 square foot cultivation facility. This step fills with our recently announced acquisition of Arrow Alternative Care, which will complete our vertical integration in the state.

Arrow will be immediately accretive to our margins in the state as we integrate our large cultivation and processing operations with Arrow’s outstanding dispensaries footprint. On the legislative front, we believe that we will see growing bipartisan support for adult-use legislation mirroring the public sentiment.

We are optimistic that adult-use cannabis will be a reality in Connecticut within the next 24 months. In May, we have been designated as an essential service and continue to operate at two dispensaries, which offer a prioritized hour for senior citizen at the beginning of each day.

We are also offering express pickup for patients while continuing to operate on schedule at our two production facilities. We continue to provide management services at 2 of the 8 existing license holders.

We are also working on the process of converting the two non-profit entities to go for profit the governor signed legislation in June that permitted adult-use sales which are expected to begin in this spring. Curaleaf will use its position and remain to be a leader in this new program, remains strong support for adult cannabis and robust tourist market boding well for growth in 2020.

We intend to open 4 adult-use retail locations and have retail real estate in development to maximize our footprint early in the program. In Ohio, we have been designated as an essential service and look forward to receiving final state approval for our recently completed Johnstown cultivation and processing facility.

The facility includes the maximum allowable cultivation of 25,000 square feet plus processing square footage that will allow us to deliver nearly 12,000 pounds of flower bringing a full breadth of products to the market. Ohio’s medical cannabis industry is still very nascent and we are excited about this growth opportunity as Ohio is the nation’s seventh most populous state with nearly 12 million residents.

In Pennsylvania, we were awarded one of the first 7 clinical registrant licenses and the only one by a multi-state operator allowing us to open 16 new dispensaries as 50,000 square feet of cultivation capacity in the state. This award coupled with our pending Grassroots acquisition will make Curaleaf a leader and one of the fastest growing medical markets in the nation.

In California, we have been designated as an essential service by the state as well as the local municipalities in which we operate allowing us to harvest on schedule at our cultivation facility in Salinas and meet our manufacturing target at the Select process facility in Sacramento. In general, this market is one of the most challenged in the country with its robust black market on favorable tax regime and struggling dispensary operations.

We are addressing this market in a sober, thoughtful manner that recognizes its unique challenges. Operational excellence, disciplined pricing and tight receivables management will be our priority as we expand the Select family of products to include gummies, live resin and tincture.

In Nevada, we have been designated as an essential service though the state has ordered the closure of all dispensaries and only delivery options that currently available at this point. We plan to launch delivery this week, while continuing to operate on the plan to add our three production facilities in the state.

We closed on the acquisition of Acres cultivation in May 2019 and are working to increase the productivity of those assets allowing us to backward integrate Select into our supply chain. A renewed emphasis on this wholesale market with the upcoming launch of new Select product, including gummies, live resin and tinctures will allow us to achieve the full potential of the brand.

In Arizona, we have been designated as an essential service and continue to serve patients at our 8 stores where we continue to see strong revenue growth. We now offer express pickup at all locations and delivery services out of one location.

We have also implemented a priority senior citizens hour at the beginning of each day and continue to operate on schedule at our production facility. During the fourth quarter, we doubled our canopy in our 100,000 square foot facility in Holbrook with a focus on improving gross margin and free cash flow to increase medical integration.

Arizona continues to be one of the largest cannabis markets in the U.S. with over 220,000 registered patients, a full 3% of the state population and we continue to believe state residents will vote to approve adult-use in 2020.

Select is already a leading big cartridge brand in Arizona. We plan to further integrate Select in this market, while replicating this profitable business model in other new regions.

New products including gummies, live resin and tinctures will extend brand lineup helping us to excite customers win additional market share. In Oregon, it’s an essential business and continued to operate our production facility and dispensary, which offers a prioritized senior citizen hour at the beginning of each day.

We are focused on backward integrating Select into our established medical operation with 37,000 square feet of cultivation. Select remains the number one vape brand with around 15% market share and are committed to growing the brand profitability in a way that continues to earn customer and patient trust in Select on state.

In Colorado, we recently announced the acquisition of Blue Kudu, a producer of cannabis chocolate, baked goods and gummies that utilized high-quality ingredients. Upon close, Curaleaf will obtain an 8,500 square foot cultivation processing facility that will support the company’s planned expansion of recently acquired Select brand in the Colorado.

Select was successfully launched there in January and we view this market as an attractive opportunity to build brand identity and gain market share to a robust dispensary market. In summary, I am pleased with our progress on positioning as we move through 2020.

With the closing of Select and the pending acquisitions of Grassroots, we are poised to deliver strong organic growth in our existing business as well as through acquired assets. We are executing on all fronts by prudently deploying capital in key markets.

This is allowing us to grow our cultivation and processing, sales and marketing and innovative proprietary R&D to deliver product that resonate with both our patients and lifestyle customers. We saw the fruits of this investment payoff in several key states as we exited 2019.

I firmly believe that our planned investments in 2020, many of which will be completed in the second half of 2020 will yield strong growth both on the top and bottom line. Now, I will turn the call over to Neil to review our financials.

Thank you, Joe and good afternoon everyone. Once again we posted record results for the quarter as we remain focused on driving strong top and bottom line growth that we believe will drive long-term value creation for our shareholders.

In the fourth quarter, we only posted both record total and managed revenues but also posted our third consecutive quarter of record positive adjusted EBITDA. Our broad geographic base and product diversity allowed us to deliver these results despite the negative news cycle around vaping and a ban on vape sales in Massachusetts between September 24 and mid December.

Fourth quarter results were driven by strength in Arizona, Florida, Nevada, New Jersey and New York as we continue to see strong growth in retail operations in these key states. Vertical integration remains the key component to our strategy and we continue to increase cultivation capacity in each of the states of operation in those markets where we continue to see expansion of medical programs and/or ongoing discussions around legalizing adult use consumption such as Arizona, Florida, New Jersey and New York.

As mentioned in previous calls, while we expect our gross margin from cannabis sales to trend upward, it will continue to fluctuate quarter-to-quarter based on our investment cycle in processing and cultivation as we continue to expand and bring new facilities online. Over time, we expect this fluctuation to moderate, especially in the second half of 2020 as our investments continue to ramp and the capital intensity of our investments begin to moderate.

As a reminder, managed revenue includes revenues associated with the not-for-profit entities in Maine and New Jersey and ATG. As we convert the not-for-profit entities to for-profit entities in New Jersey and Maine and close on the ATG transaction, this will ultimately negate the need to report managed revenue as they will be included in total revenue in our IFRS financial statements.

This will simplify comparisons of our reported results to consensus results which vary by service as some tabulate total revenue instead of managed revenue. We closed out 2019 reporting managed revenue of $251 million for the year representing a 186% growth over 2018.

In the fourth quarter, managed revenue more than doubled over last year to a record $82.1 million and was up 12% quarter-over-quarter. Pro forma revenues for the quarter totaled $131.3 million.

Pro forma growth was driven by top line revenue at Curaleaf and Grassroots offset somewhat by select efforts to better manage customer accounts and new product introductions that will position the combined entity for long-term profitable revenue growth. Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2019 was a record $75.5 million, up 22% demonstrating the strong growth that exists in our core business.

A key focus for 2019 was delivering positive adjusted EBITDA. We ended the year with approximately $26 million in adjusted EBITDA including $13.8 million in the fourth quarter alone compared to a loss of $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2018.

The increase year-over-year was primarily due to scaling of operations and higher gross margins across several states, notably in Massachusetts and Florida offset somewhat by continued investments in key markets where we are expanding capacity to meet demand. Our retail and wholesale revenue more than doubled to $57.7 million during the quarter compared to $23.7 in the fourth quarter of the previous year.

Management fee income more than doubled to $6.6 million in the quarter versus the comparable prior year period. The increase in retail and wholesale revenues was primarily due to organic growth in Arizona and Florida.

Additionally, wholesale revenue increased in Massachusetts as a result of number of adult-use dispensaries increased. We grew our retail footprint to 51 dispensaries as of December 31, 2019 up from 36 in the year ago period.

As of today, we operate 54 dispensaries, which does not include additional dispensaries that are currently operated by pending acquisitions awaiting regulatory approval. SG&A for the quarter was $36.2 million compared to $25.8 million in the prior year period and $33.5 million in the prior quarter.

Adjusted for one-time charges, SG&A for the quarter was $27.9 million compared to $25.7 million in the sequential quarter, an increase of $2.2 million or 9%. As we continue to scale, we expect our SG&A to decline as a percentage of total revenue resulting in significant operating leverage.

During the quarter, income tax expense was driven by a return to provision adjustment for the 2018 income return and increased deferred tax expense associated with the increase in biological assets. Net income or net loss attributable to Curaleaf Holdings for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $27.2 million compared to net loss of $16.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Given the number of non-cash items in our reported net loss, including $12.7 million of depreciation and amortization and $5.7 million of share-based compensation along with the change in fair value of biological assets of $5.5 million which totaled $23.9 million for the quarter, including or as low as $8.3 million in one-time charges primarily related to increased business development acquisitions and financing related activities, we believe adjusted EBITDA is the best measure of our performance. We have provided a reconciliation of net loss to adjusted EBITDA in our press release this afternoon.

Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2019 again was $13.8 million, an increase of 32% over the third quarter. Moving on to the balance sheet, as of December 31, 2019, we had $43.5 million of cash, which did not reflect the net process from the senior secured term loan debt of $185.7 million we closed in January.

With the results announced today for third consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA, we remain confident in our financial position and believe we have ample cash on hand to fund our current business for future growth. Furthermore, several of our states continued to generate operating cash flow which paves the way towards generating significant organic cash flow.

Finally, as Boris noted, we have liquidity on standby from our key shareholders to take advantage of current market conditions. Fully diluted shares outstanding at the end of the quarter were $468.4 million.

Please note that we issued approximately 47.5 million shares to Select shareholders upon the closing of the transaction in February 2020. With respect to guidance, first, we are all in uncharted territory as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.

Thus far, the coronavirus outbreak has not materially impacted our business and we continue to main continuity of our operations with no disruptions in cultivation and processing. As you heard from Joe given our retail operations are predominantly medically focused, we have been designated as essential services in most of the states in which we operate.

In fact, we have seen a considerable uptick in the demand for our products demonstrating the durability of consumer use given uncertainty around the timing of the close with respect to Grassroots we will no longer guide the pro forma revenues in 2020 and believe managed revenue which includes both Curaleaf and Select accurately reflect the current state of our business as such we expect to report another quarter of managed revenue for the first quarter of 2020 with revenues which will include two months of Select to be at least $100 million. Given uncertainty around the longevity of the outbreak at this time we are thinking it would not be prudent for us to issue guidance for the remainder of 2020 we will revisit guidance on future earnings calls including our first quarter 2020 results call in May when there is more visibility about any longer term impacts that Coronavirus may have on our business the economy in general and the consumer inclosing I would like to welcome the Select team including Cameron and Jason; and our new President, Joe Barren to the Curaleaf team.

I would also like to thank Boris and Joe and the board to their confidence in moving me to the role of Chief Operating Officer and welcome our new Chief Financial Officer Mike Carlotti I am truly excited to be working with this incredible team. With that, I will turn the call back over to the operator to open the line for questions.

Hi, thank you. Good afternoon.

So encouraging that so many of your [indiscernible] business had designated as essential to the communities and feels like you guys have put some really, really good protocols in place for the market where delivery had already been available can you guys talk a little bit about any kind of shift that you are seeing in terms of consumer purchase behavior like how much of that revenue is moving to delivery in a way from what historically would have been on permits? Thanks.

Hey, Vivien. This is Joe.

So in Florida and New York we offer a delivery and we are definitely seeing increased demand for that service and so we are looking to add more vehicles to take advantage of the opportunity but I would still say the vast majority of our sales are happening at our stores although they may not be happening in our stores as you heard in my call really kind of re-imagining the retail experience and conjunction with regulators so that consumers can do a lot of things that they couldn’t do before like order online and pick up at the curve and I think that actually that is proving to be a pretty efficient system that consumers are showing a preference for that so that may be something that part of our future protocols even after we get passed the coronavirus but this is a situation that evolving rapidly it has been like two weeks but it feels like a life time so we will continue to evolve where we can we are going to continue to allow people to get their product in any way that’s possible for example in Nevada we are launching a delivery service this week as well and we will start to touch customers through delivery so that is an example of how we are evolving to meet our customers whoever however we can.

Yes that’s great. You guys are clearly moving it quickly in response to this it is great to see I will just ask one more and get back into the queue has there been any discussions with regulators and I am thinking about Florida in particular here on relaxing some of the rules around whether wholesale is permissible or not it does not sound maybe I should ask the question may be you guys have had any disruption in your supply chain from COVID that I have certainly already seen it on the tobacco side and I am just wondering whether there is any kind of business continuity planning that the regulators in Florida are willing to discuss with you guys its one of your competitors for instance has impact to their supply chain?

Thanks.

Yes. What I would say is that’s one of the unique strength of the Curaleaf business overall is that we are vertically integrated and so we are not overly reliant on anybody for our supply chain and that is proven to be a real strength now in this time of crisis with respect to Florida in particular I would say frankly anything that is on the table that regulators are showing an amazing willingness to look at our business to renew lands and try to support the industry anywhere they can.

At the moment, there is no plans for wholesaling in Florida, but I would just say that the critical point is that we are operating where essential and the regulators are working with us so that we can adapt our business and meet the demand. So, that generally just bodes well for our company overall.

Understood. Thank you very much.

Thank you, Vivien.

Yes, hi. Good afternoon and thank you for taking my questions here.

I just wanted to follow-up with respect we have seen a number of different reports of record sales being set in the past couple of weeks and you mentioned that the robustness of the customer so far. I was just wondering if there were any metrics or further color you could provide on how that’s looked over the past couple of weeks here.

I know you mentioned expecting at least managed revenue of about $100 million. We are trying to get a grip on how much of that is organic growth versus how much is coming in on the acquisition type?

Thank you.

Yes. Thanks, Graham.

The only thing I will say is that I think its true frankly across the industry that we are seeing an uptick in demand for cannabis. I will point you to one specific data point which is Florida that publishes weekly data.

So last week in Florida, we dispensed 13 million milligrams of oil and almost 3,000 ounces which was a record for Curaleaf and we have really ramped up our production in Florida to keep putting up that type of product. And so I think that you will see – you will continue to see an increased demand for consumers as we go through the year.

Okay.

And Graham, let me be more specific on that for you – on that answer. The fact that and in the couple of weeks we will probably have better data because it’s only been 2 weeks, but there is no question that growth accelerated fairly dramatically across the board in all of our states.

And I would say that sales was probably up somewhere in the region of 20% above what we probably expected. And the issues, though, however is the reason we are not guiding at the moment is because every state is different, certain states have limits.

So if you reach that limit, obviously people are buying, so they don’t have to go out to the store regularly. So they try to make one visit.

So they are trying to find more, but there are limits. So they do have to come back.

We are working with the states in some states to lift those limits. So it’s sort of ongoing and it’s difficult to predict that.

But there is no question which has been a real surprise I think to all of us that cannabis is very much a product in demand and people flooded to the stores to get that product at the time that the crisis started. And so we will how it progresses over the year and that’s why we have decided not to guide at this point in time, because we just don’t know how the – one, how the coronavirus will continue to develop over the next several months.

We are hoping obviously that it will peak and start to come off and we have heard positive news from the President is thinking about reopening the economy more after Easter. But it’s very difficult to tell at this point in time, but so far the sales have been robust.

Okay. I appreciate the color and thank you.

I understand it’s a fluid and unprecedented situation, so that was helpful. If I could ask one more question here, with respect to the Nevada market, I know you guys have adapted quickly and going to be launching the delivery this week.

Given the recent closing of the Acres transaction I was wondering with respect to that market and the closure of casinos and cancellation of various conferences and things like. Do you have any color with respect to how much of the customers in that state were based on tourism or travel personnel or business or otherwise versus how much are more in-state core customers?

Thanks.

Yes. Graham, it’s quite interesting.

In Nevada, our strategy has been maybe a little bit different than some operators and that we have really geared our operations towards the local market. And I think that’s proving to be a benefit as the tourism industry drives up in Nevada.

Yes, but we have recognized a while ago is that customer acquisition cost was incredibly high in Nevada and the reality is you might get that customer once a year or maybe less than that. So we have a very strong local presence in our stores.

And so I think that when our business in particular we should be able to maintain a good trajectory, but there is no question overall the lack of tourism in Nevada will have an impact on the market. It’s hard to predict the exact amount without knowing the duration of time, but it should be – it’s purely going to be significant.

Understood. Okay.

Thank you very much.

Hi, everyone. Thanks for taking our questions and I hope you and your families are all doing well in these times.

Congrats on a strong 2019 overall. I just have a couple of questions on some of the nuances within the quarter.

You had mentioned strong growth in sort of your core Curaleaf business as well as Grassroots offset by Select. It does seem that overall the pro forma bridge that’s about $131 million.

It’s down about $5 million quarter-over-quarter. So I am assuming that on net-net all because of Select, so is there any color you can give as to how that business line is tracking into 2020 now given some of the challenges last year with [indiscernible]?

Yes. I mean, I will try to address that and Neil can chime in with other facts.

But what I will say most likely is that it’s pretty obvious that even though it’s the leading consumer brand in cannabis last year, it was a vape product, right and they ran into significant headwind in California in particular in some of the other markets with the vape prices. The good news is twofold, one we are past that and we are starting to see vape sales pick backup.

The other thing we are doing is we are expanding the Select family of product in the gummies, tinctures and other form factors. And so I think the category and that brand in particular will be more immune to shocks like another vape prices.

So I think generally we are feeling like we will get to like back on the upswing here in 2020 and extend the brand with new product offering.

Okay, great. And then within that sort of minimum of $100 million you have for your managed revenues, obviously, there was going to be an extra additional month of Select in there, but a good proportion of that reaccelerated growth again coming from Select or is it more just aggregating that for the full year?

Yes, a lot of the growth we are seeing in this quarter is organic Curaleaf growth, which as Boris said, we are seeing a big demand from consumers for our product and we have made significant investments in 2019 that are really paying dividends even in Q1and we will pay further dividends this year. So we have done a lot of work in CapEx and building capacity that’s coming to fruition as I mentioned earlier we are starting to see very significant flower harvest coming out of Florida.

And so as we can bring more products to the market we should see a lot of organic growth.

And on the Select issue, Matt, I just like to say that we have owned this business now for a little bit over a month and we are making a lot of changes in the business, one, we are integrating it into the Curaleaf infrastructure so to bring down cost particularly on the cultivation side and the processing side. We are also bringing in a tremendous amount of discipline on pricing and on accounts receivable things that maybe weren’t that great at Select before Curaleaf.

And so you are going to start seeing acceleration in Select. I think the last week of March is going to be a very big week.

We have launched new products for Select in California and that will be coming in Nevada, Arizona, Colorado and Michigan and Maryland in April. We have got a whole suite of new products launching in April for Select as well.

So we are really focusing. We have hit the ground running very, very fast.

We put new management in-charge almost immediately with Mark Russ coming over to the company to help us in managing the wholesale business. Before that, he ran Red Bull, so he is a guy who really knows how to wholesale.

So we are making a lot of changes over Select and we think that the company will do very, very well and I think we will start to see accelerated growth in the second quarter of Select. I think as Joe said the first quarter is largely going to be organic growth for Curaleaf.

Great. I appreciated that.

And if I could just slip one more quick question on COVID and I know you talked about that in good depth already, but up here in Canada, there is a bit of – as the federal government is put in place for a lot of employees that if we choose to stay at home and choose to self-isolate, you are protected from an employment standpoint, regardless if you are in essential services or not. So are there any states where you guys are concerned that as this issue progresses I understand there is lot of unknowns that it will be progressively harder to staff your cultivation production or is that something in most of your material markets that doesn’t seem to be a concern at this point?

No, Matt, in fact, I mean, as I said earlier, we are working very closely with regulators and in most markets they have improved expedited hiring. So accelerated background checks and we actually announced this morning that we are hiring across our supply chain.

And so I think that we will be able to continue to find manpower to keep everything moving along. So far, all of our production facilities are operating on schedule and we have got a really good supply chain.

So, I think at the moment we are feeling pretty good about business continuity.

Great. Very helpful.

Thanks guys.

Thanks for taking my questions guys and congrats on a great quarter there. Some of the questions that I wanted to ask were asked already, but I thought maybe if you could talk a little bit about the trend of improving operating leverage that you guys have delivered on the past two quarters?

And given Neil’s comments around kind of like the apex of CapEx spending likely going to occur somewhere midyear, how should we think about your operating leverage benefit going forward into that CapEx cycle and also in light of some of the integration with Select and potentially drive through middle of the year?

Yes, I would say a couple of things on that. First and foremost I think we have proven that we are pretty prudent in managing our SG&A in particularly expenses.

Our SG&A quarter-on-quarter grew about $2 million. I think one of the things we are obviously focused on is the one-time expenses.

A lot of those were associated with the deals we were doing so those should come down. We will have some third-party integration costs but over time, the one-timers should come down.

With respect on the margin side, we are building out capacity. So if you could imagine while we are building out capacity we have got to hire, we have got direct costs coming in, but that does have an impact on our overall gross margins.

Prior to commissioning facility, for example, Ohio, we are working on our approval there, but that took a little bit of drag on margins. California, we are building capacity.

Florida, we are building capacity and you picked up on my time and exactly that we think towards the second half of this year that will moderate as well as our CapEx spend.

And I would like to add to Neil’s comments that this is a very different situation in the Canadian situation. Our demand far exceeds the supply available in the market I think you have seen that in Pennsylvania, in Illinois, in New Jersey, in New York, I mean across the board in the country of Massachusetts.

Wholesale prices, retail prices are exorbitantly high. And so the fact is that, that unlike the Canadian market, the U.S.

market did not overbuild early on that may mean that there are supply shortages because of that. But frankly I don’t see the same situation developing here anytime soon where capacity will start to be look greater than the demand as the matter of fact we are being very prudent, we are calculating but we are building large indoor facilities in Florida.

We are building very large facilities New Jersey to meet recreational demand and we only make those decisions at the such time, where we are very highly confident that either there will be regulatory change in those markets or that there will be increases in demand by loosening of existing regulation. And so that’s the way we are approaching it which we are not going out and blanket building across the country where our capacity will become a burden on us rather we are measuring out in state by state where we need it.

And we are being very measured where we build and how much capital we allocate to that market but because of that, there will be short-term pressure on margin, but obviously that will change very, very quickly once we reach the peak of our CapEx which Neil said sometime midyear.

Great. Excellent.

Very helpful, Boris. Thank you.

And maybe just a quick follow-on on that, in view of the sizable liquidity position you guys have on your proposal any chance that you can give us like proportion that maybe devoted in future to CapEx versus other let’s say M&A initiatives or other growth projects?

Yes, Robert. We are always evaluating our capital.

I mean, we have got – we have got a – we did a lot of CapEx work in 2020 – 19. So our CapEx needs are actually not terribly huge for 2020 so that that allows us some flexibility how we deploy capital.

But as Boris said, we are always trying to look at deploying capital as high as possible returns. And so we will continue to make those decisions.

I think we do that as well as everybody in the industry. And so we will continue to let those factors inform our view of how we allocate our capital.

Okay, excellent. Thanks.

One last quick one on Massachusetts if I could, I know you mentioned about a 2-week shutdown period for the recreational dispensaries, what’s your view on kind of that being a reasonable timeline you think that can extend quite a bit longer or even if the COVID risk has not completely diminished? Would they allow them to reopen with certain protocols, social distancing whatnot?

Yes. I mean, it’s hard to predict the future rather, but I suspect the Governor has kind of come under a lot of pressure for that decision.

I think one thing that’s interesting is if you look at the city of Denver, the Mayor shut down cannabis stores and then quickly reverse course, because it was so unpopular. So we will see what happens.

I think that you are going to see a big outcry from people that use these products. And it’s important to highlight that even though they are adult-use stores we believe that about two-thirds of those consumers use the products for actual medical purposes.

They just haven’t gone through the process of getting a card. So I think there will be a lot of pressure to open up the stores here pretty close there.

Okay, it sounds great. Thanks again.

Hi, thanks for the questions. First on EBITDA, nice to see the continued margin expansion during the quarter, is there any color you could provide on EBITDA and how that came out on a pro forma basis?

And then as Acres and Select come into the reported numbers in the first quarter, just how best to think about potential margin impact particularly as you look at Select on the wholesale side? Thank you.

Yes. So, on the pro forma EBITDA we don’t disclose that number.

I will tell you looking forward we have always discussed Select as having lower margins in Curaleaf just given that it was a wholesaler. What attracted us to the Select deal was the fact that we could integrate our cultivation and use a lot of our processing technology to further enhance their margins as well as bring their products across our retail network.

That obviously takes some time to do. So you will start seeing that margin enhancement in the back half of 2020.

Okay, great. Thank you.

And then just one second follow-on for me, just with COVID and the fluid situation that we are still in right now and the potential impact on new store openings, is it fair to say that while we are in the situation even if you are getting the essential designation that we might not expect those new store openings kind of come in over the next couple of weeks or maybe a month until the situation kind of plays out and that will be more towards the back half of the year as well?

Yes, I would say from at least I will talk from just a construction standpoint we are on track with as Joe mentioned we have got 11 stores in Florida which is the largest date we are looking to open facilities. We are on track at various stages with those 11 facilities.

And frankly given the demand to the patient base in Florida I wouldn’t see changing the timing of the opening of those stores right now.

Okay, great. Thank you.

I would also add that Florida hasn’t in some states construction companies have been told to stop their work in Florida that hasn’t been the case. And so all of our construction operations have been Florida continue to be developed.

Alright, great. Thanks.

Thank you. My question is on the unit economics in the present environment, the commentary that you presented and that most people have said have been for a universally positive demand over the past couple of weeks as a result of what’s going on in the world?

But as you say that there is a lot of modification to operating procedures that you had to make to keep everyone safe. You alluded to record revenues in the first quarter, but I am curious if the flipside of that is that there could be a lot of cost that we didn’t anticipate and so the flow-through will not be there.

And I was curious if Mike or Neil have any perspective on what the incremental costs are to operate in the present environment?

Yes. I would say right now we have a fixed cost in the dispensaries Joe mentioned delivery that, that’s a fairly modest cost.

I would say the one thing that I would think about is lot of our dispensaries will start to do curbside that takes a few more minutes attend to a patient, but no additional cost given that we already have the fixed cost of the dispensary.

By the way I should assume that’s a fairly high flow-through then?

Yes.

And on the inventory we are looking at fourth quarter inventory position that frankly the growth in the inventory in the fourth quarter was modest compared to the revenue growth but that’s three months out at this point. My question is do you have any – and given the surge in demand do you feel that you are going to have any depletion issues and do the inventory balances look higher where you sit at presently compared to what they had been in the fourth quarter?

Yes. I would say we are confident in our supply chain as it currently stands.

And just by way of example in March we have more flower come to market in Florida than we ever have. So in all of our markets we are highly confident in our supply chain.

And our vertical integration makes that rather unique.

Okay, great. Thank you.

Thank you.

Good afternoon. Thanks for taking my questions.

Congratulations on Pennsylvania and the clinical registrant program. Just wondering what your build-out plans there are and I guess how they relate to the operations coming over with Grassroots?

Yes. Thanks, Russell.

That was a huge win for Curaleaf and that’s been a long time in the making. So we are very happy to get that award.

We have controlled the 50,000 square foot building and we have plants ready to go. So we will begin construction on that immediately and we also have the ability to open up 6 stores.

We believe based on the current regulations that, that will dovetail in with what Grassroots already have there making us one of the unquestioned leader in that market. So I think it’s complementary in that regard.

Obviously, Pennsylvania is a huge demand market. It’s one of the fastest growing markets in the country.

So we are really excited about entering that market here hopefully later this year.

Great. And if I could on New Jersey, I think you briefly spoke to working towards approvals on additional dispensaries there, I think your licensure for two more.

Can you provide I guess any timelines around when you might see those get opened up?

Well, we are actively working on two states. We have been doing that for quite a while.

Local regulations are difficult to navigate in New Jersey, but we are hopeful that this year we will be able to open those stores and reach customers in different parts of the state.

Great. And if I could add just one last question with respect to the transaction in Connecticut that you announced earlier today, can you provide any color on the purchase price and the structure cash and stock?

Any detail you can help us out with there?

Yes. We will be filing our normal monthly report at which time we will disclose that, but it is a mix of cash and stock.

That’s great. Thank you very much.

Thank you and good afternoon everyone. Look two questions.

One and I am sorry to how to begin on Select, I mean, as per my math, your run-rate on Select right now is about $15 million per quarter run-rate compared to about $35 million before. Can you provide me on that, because I am looking at $82 million managed revenue in the fourth quarter, where you have some growth obviously organic into the first quarter?

You have Acres coming in, so you get to at least $90 million so that’s $10 million for Select two months, so $15 million for the quarter. So if you can comment on that?

I understand the exposure to California on vape, but it seems that revenues there are more than down to more than half. And the second one is more related to Grassroots, I understand there is uncertainty given COVID-19 on the approval process as you explained that, but how far does that stretch?

And just remind us about how the share count will change given what the share price is right now given that there is part of the deal there that’s variable, right? There is a share component that’s fixed and there is about that variable?

Thank you.

So, with respect to Select, I followed most of your math, as we mentioned in Q4 Select was down quarter-over-quarter from Q3. So because of the vape prices that was going on in Q4 that was 3 months with respect to what we will report for Q1 that will actually be 2 months of actual.

So we have seen some pickup in the Select business. We are also in process as Joe mentioned of introducing some new products, in fact a few of those products, particularly in California are launching this month and if some of those products we are launching to April.

I think also I would like to add that in respect – and when we do our release for the first quarter we are going to breakout retail and wholesale revenue quite hopefully. So you will be able to see Curaleaf and Select wholesale revenues are going to be as one group and then retail revenues second group.

So we will be adjusting our accounts to reflect that we have both the large wholesale business now and a large retail business. And as I said, I think in the earlier call, revenues will dramatically pickup on the wholesale side over the next two quarters as we integrate Select into the business.

But there is no reason that there has been a reduction in revenue in the fourth quarter and a little bit in the first quarter as we integrate the business and we focus on its margins and on its receivables. So Curaleaf has the tremendous amount of discipline on financial control and so we are focusing on and California has been as Joe said a difficult state from a AR perspective, i.e., the receivables.

Curaleaf is redoing the way we do business in California. We are negotiating with distributors and stores and we are going to change the way that Select do the business and therefore we will only do business with those people that can pay and pay on time.

And as we spread Select throughout the country we are going into – we are already in Colorado, we are already in Michigan, we are already in Maryland. These are all new states that have been launched since Curaleaf took over the Select brand.

And so we will – we are not going to have Select divided out as the separate business. As part of Curaleaf, however, we will divide out wholesale and retail revenue.

So the wholesale and retail business lines will be divided out in our next accounting when we do the first quarter in May.

Thank you. That’s very helpful.

And on the Grassroots question, I mean, maybe let me rephrase the question, but if you can just remind us about the math there in terms of how the share count would change given that there is a fixed and variable component? But also if I may add to that question and correct me if I am wrong, are you seeing advantage that, that transaction hasn’t closed yet, because you can do for example Pennsylvania go to a state and apply for new licenses and get the business, but if you already own Grassroots, would you have been able to apply for that?

I am just trying to understand how that plays out in terms of – the same thing with ATG Massachusetts, you have business there, but then you have ATG? Is that – does that make a difference?

Thanks.

So I will take the front end of that question. There is a fixed year component of 102.8 million shares and then there is variable share component that’s based on $40 million.

Yes. And with respect to the regulatory environment, so every state is unique in that, it has its own set of rules and regulations of license caps.

And I think it’s important to stay in all markets we have to sit inside of those caps. And so whether we have Grassroots or not, we have to fit inside those caps.

In Pennsylvania specifically, we believe that it’s complementary and we can operate both businesses in that state.

Alright. Got it.

Thank you.
