Tilray Brands' Stockholders Approve Reverse Stock Split; Company Pauses Implementation as It Evaluates Timing and Stock Price

NEW YORK and LEAMINGTON, Ontario, June 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tilray Brands, Inc. ("Tilray" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:TLRY, TSX:TLRY), a global lifestyle and consumer packaged goods company at the forefront of the beverage, cannabis and wellness industries, today announced that the vote for an amendment of the Company's Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in order to implement a reverse stock split of the Company's common stock at a ratio ranging from 1-to-10 to 1-to-20 (the "Reverse Stock Split"), passed at the special meeting of stockholders. The Company also announced a pause on the implementation of the newly-authorized reverse stock split while further exploring all options related to timing of the reverse split as it evaluates timing and stock price.

If implemented, the Reverse Stock Split is expected to achieve several objectives, including:

• Ensuring compliance with the Nasdaq Global Select Market's continued listing requirements
• Aligning the Company's number of shares outstanding with companies of its size and scope
• Making Tilray more attractive to institutional shareholders
• Reducing expenditures associated with Tilray's Annual Meeting of Stockholders resulting in up to $1 million in cost savings on an annual run rate basis
  
  
  
  

Upon implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, the Company believes it would be well positioned for strategic opportunities and acquisitions given its strong balance sheet.

Use of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including cash and marketable securities and net debt. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide useful additional information to investors about current trends in the Company's operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded. They should be read only in connection with the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before income tax benefits, net; interest expense, net; non-operating income (expense), net; amortization; stock-based compensation; change in fair value of contingent consideration; purchase price accounting step-up; impairments, other than temporary change in fair value of convertible notes receivable, project 420 optimization costs facility start-up and closure costs; litigation costs; restructuring costs, and transaction (income) costs, net. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

Cash and marketable securities are comprised of two GAAP measures, cash and cash equivalents added to marketable securities. 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 two GAAP metrics.

Net debt is comprised of GAAP measures and reduces bank indebtedness, current and non-current portions of long-term debt, the principal balance of convertible debt by cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The company believes this metric provides useful information to management, analysts, and investors regarding its liquidity and the Company's ability to repay all of its debt.
