Florida
with 33 now open in state -
Completed Acquisition of Alternative Therapies Group in

the last managed entity to be consolidated -
Voters in two key Curaleaf states approved cannabis for adult-use:
New Jersey
and
Arizona
-
Announced the divestiture of
$31.5 million
of assets in
Maryland
, supporting the optimization of Curaleaf’s vertically integrated presence in the state
Joseph Lusardi
, Chief Executive Officer of Curaleaf stated, “Curaleaf’s record third quarter results were complemented by the successful completion of our acquisition of Grassroots, which expanded our presence into 6 new states, including high-growth markets such as
Illinois
and
Pennsylvania
. As we head into 2021, Curaleaf remains incredibly well-positioned following the transformative legalization of adult-use cannabis in
Arizona
and
New Jersey
, and consequently the potential of future adult-use in
New York
,
Pennsylvania
and
Connecticut
. Each of these markets present an enormous opportunity for us, as the only MSO with a leading presence in every one of these states. Looking forward, we expect our growth will be driven by organic initiatives, increased capacity and dispensaries in key states and the roll out of adult use in
Arizona
and
New Jersey
.”
Mike Carlotti
, Chief Financial Officer of Curaleaf, added, “Curaleaf, once again, delivered record quarterly results highlighted by record managed revenues, total revenues, and a 51% sequential improvement in Adjusted EBITDA. We anticipate a continued rise in managed revenue and adjusted EBITDA leading to strong sequential growth in the fourth quarter and into 2021. Finally, as of
October 8th
, we consolidated our final managed entity, Alternative Therapies Group in
Massachusetts
, and accordingly will report only IFRS total revenue beginning in the first quarter of 2021, thus greatly simplifying our future financial reporting.”
Financial Results for the Third Quarter Ended
September 30, 2020
Managed Revenue for the third quarter of 2020 was a record
$193.2 million
, an increase of 164.0% compared to
$73.2 million
in the third quarter of 2019. Managed Revenue for the third quarter increased 59.2% sequentially.
Total Revenue for the third quarter of 2020 was a record
$182.4 million
, an increase of 195.1% compared to
$61.8 million
in the third quarter of 2019. Total Revenue for the third quarter of 2020 increased 55.3% sequentially.
Retail revenue increased by 206.5% to
$135.3 million
during third the quarter of 2020, compared to
$44.2 million
in the third quarter of 2019. The increase in retail revenue was primarily due to organic growth and new store openings in in
Florida
,
Massachusetts
,
Arizona
and
New York
, coupled with the impact of Grassroots, Curaleaf NJ, Arrow, and Maine Organic Therapy acquisitions in 2020, the 2019 acquisitions of two dispensaries in
Arizona
in the third quarter of 2019 and acquisition of Acres in
Nevada
in late 2019.
Wholesale revenue increased nearly seven-fold to
$45.0 million
during the third quarter of 2020, compared to
$6.5 million
in the third quarter of 2019. Growth in wholesale revenue was due primarily to the addition of Select, Grassroots,
New Jersey
, Blue Kudu and an increase in
California
,
Maryland
and
New York
as a result of increased cultivation and harvest.
Management fee income decreased by 81.1% to
$2.1 million
during the third quarter of 2020, compared to
$11.1 million
in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease in the management fee income was primarily due to the acquisition of Curaleaf NJ, the managed not-for-profit in
New Jersey
in
July 2020
, offset by the management fees generated from ATG.
Gross profit before impact of biological assets for the third quarter of 2020 was
$91.8 million
, compared to
$34.7 million
for the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to the continued improvement in the operating capacity and efficiency of the Company’s cultivation and processing facilities.
Gross profit on cannabis sales was
$89.7 million
for the third quarter of 2020, resulting in a 50% margin, compared to
$23.6 million
in the third quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to the continued improvement in the operating capacity and efficiency of the Company’s cultivation and processing facilities.
Adjusted EBITDA was a record
$42.3 million
for the third quarter of 2020, compared to
$10.4 million
for the third quarter of 2019.
Net loss, attributable to Curaleaf Holdings, Inc., for the third quarter of 2020 was
$9.3 million
, compared to a net loss of
$6.8 million
in the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by a
$16.3 million
increase in depreciation and amortization and a
$0.8 million
increase in share-based compensation, both of which are non-cash, a
$13.5 million
increase in income tax expense, a
$13.3 million
increase in net interest expense and
$10.1 million
increase in one-time expenses. These were partially offset by a
$10.2 million
increase in the fair value of biological assets and a
$10.3 million
increase in other income.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of
September 30, 2020
, the Company had
$84.6 million
of cash on hand,
$280.0 million
of outstanding debt net of unamortized debt discounts and the weighted average fully diluted shares outstanding during the quarter were 625.2 million.

Non-IFRS
Financial and Performance Measures
In this press release Curaleaf refers to certain non-IFRS financial measures such as “Pro Forma Revenue”, “Managed Revenue”, “Gross Profit on Cannabis Sales” and “Adjusted EBITDA”. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Curaleaf defines “Managed Revenue” as total revenue plus revenue from entities for which the Company has a management contract but does not consolidate the financial results based on IFRS 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements. Curaleaf defines “Pro Forma Revenue” as “Managed Revenue” plus revenue from operations of pending and closed acquisitions as if such acquisitions occurred on
July 1, 2020
. The Company defines “Gross Profit on Cannabis Sales” as retail and wholesale revenues less cost of goods sold. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined by Curaleaf as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization less share-based compensation expense and one-time charges related to business development, acquisition, financing and reorganization costs. Curaleaf considers these measures to be an important indicator of the financial strength and performance of our business. We believe the adjusted results presented provide relevant and useful information for investors because they clarify our actual operating performance, make it easier to compare our results with those of other companies and allow investors to review performance in the same way as our management. Since these measures are not calculated in accordance with IFRS, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, our reported results as indicators of our performance, and they may not be comparable to similarly named measures from other companies. The following tables provide a reconciliation of each of the non-IFRS measures to its closest IFRS measure.
