Second Quarter 2020 Business Highlights

Harvest announced the appointment of Deborah Keeley as Chief Financial Officer on June 22, 2020.

Harvest completed the initial closing of the divestment of eight retail assets in California to Hightimes Holding Corp. for consideration of $61.5 million, consisting of $1.5 million in cash and $60.0 million in Series A Preferred Stock.

As of June 30, 2020, Harvest owned, operated, or managed 35 retail locations in seven states, including 14 open dispensaries in Arizona. Harvest owned and operated dispensaries exclude retail locations serviced through Interurban.

As of June 30, 2020, Harvest no longer meets the definition of "foreign private issuer" under United States securities laws as more than 50% of Harvest's issued and outstanding shares were directly or indirectly owned by shareholders of record domiciled in the United States. As a result, Harvest will be deemed a U.S. domestic issuer under United States securities laws and will be subject to SEC reporting requirements applicable to U.S. domestic companies no later than January 1, 2021. These U.S. reporting requirements will require Harvest's financial statements and financial data to be presented under U.S. Generally Acceptable Accounting Principles.

Outlook

Harvest is increasing its full year 2020 revenue target to $215-220 million, up from the prior target of approximately $200 million. Harvest achieved positive adjusted EBITDA during the second quarter, ahead of the prior guidance of achievement during the second half of 2020. Forecasts assume no meaningful impacts or disruptions to our operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Management Commentary

"Our improved financial results during the second quarter demonstrate continued progress toward our primary goal of returning to profitability through revenue growth, cost reduction measures and investments in core markets Arizona, Florida, Maryland, and Pennsylvania," said Chief Executive Officer Steve White. "We are continuing to build on this positive momentum as we execute on our plan."
