−Removed: An investment in our common
−Removed: stock involves a high degree of risk.
−Removed: You should carefully consider the following risks and all of the other information contained in
−Removed: this report before deciding whether to invest in our common stock.
−Removed: If any of the following risks are realized, our business, financial
−Removed: condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
−Removed: In that event, the trading price of our common stock
−Removed: could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock.
−Removed: Additional risks of which we are not presently aware
−Removed: or that we currently believe are immaterial may also harm our business and results of operations.
−Removed: Some statements in this report, including
−Removed: such statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements.
−Removed: See the section entitled Cautionary Information
−Removed: about Forward-Looking Statements in Part I of this Report.
−Removed: Risks Related to Our Operations
−Removed: We have a relatively limited history of
−Removed: operations, a history of losses, and our future earnings, if any, and cash flows may be volatile, resulting in uncertainty about our
−Removed: prospects generally.
−Removed: We were initially organized
−Removed: as a limited liability company in the State of Colorado on March 20, 2014.
−Removed: In March 2017, we converted into a corporation and on February
−Removed: 12, 2021, we completed an uplisting to Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “UGRO.” The following is a summary of our recent historical
−Removed: operating performance:
−Removed: the year ended December 31, 2024, we generated revenue of $40.0 million and incurred a net loss of $36.5 million.
−Removed: ● During the year ended December 31, 2023, we generated
−Removed: revenue of $69.9 million and incurred a net loss of $25.4 million.
−Removed: ● During the year ended December 31, 2022, we generated revenue
−Removed: of $66.3 million and incurred a net loss of $15.3 million.
−Removed: ● During the year ended December 31, 2021, we generated revenue
−Removed: of $62.1 million and incurred a net loss of $0.9 million.
−Removed: ● During the year ended December 31, 2020, we generated revenue
−Removed: of $25.8 million and incurred a net loss of $5.1 million.
−Removed: Our lack of a significant
−Removed: history and the evolving nature of the market in which we operate make it likely that there are risks inherent to our business that are
−Removed: yet to be recognized by us or others, or not fully appreciated, and that could result in us suffering further losses.
−Removed: As a result of
−Removed: the foregoing, an investment in our securities necessarily involves uncertainty about the stability of our operating results, cash flows
−Removed: and, ultimately, our prospects generally.
+Added: An investment in our securities
+Added: involves a high degree of risk.
+Added: You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included
+Added: in this Report, before making an investment decision.
+Added: If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition,
+Added: or results of operations could suffer materially.
+Added: In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose
+Added: all or part of your investment.
+Added: Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
+Added: We have a limited operating history under
+Added: the Flash Sports & Media platform and may not be able to successfully execute our business plan.
+Added: The Company completed the
+Added: Merger with Flash on February 17, 2026.
+Added: Flash was incorporated on August 7, 2023 and had not generated any revenue prior to the Merger.
+Added: While IPG, which is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Flash and therefore of the Company, has generated revenue from cricket-related operations
+Added: since 2020, the combined entity has a limited operating history as a publicly traded sports and media company.
+Added: There can be no assurance
+Added: that we will be able to successfully integrate the operations of Flash, IPG, and the Company, or that we will achieve profitability.
+Added: prospects must be considered in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies in the early stages of development in rapidly
+Added: evolving markets.
+Added: We are substantially dependent on a single
+Added: contractual relationship with Sri Lanka Cricket for a significant majority of our revenue.
+Added: Substantially all of IPG’s
+Added: revenue is derived from the commercialization of rights granted under the Master Event Rights Agreement with SLC for the Lanka Premier
+Added: The loss, non-renewal, or material modification of this agreement would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
+Added: condition, and results of operations.
+Added: The Event Rights Agreement requires annual payment of an Event Rights Fee or provision of a bank
+Added: guarantee by March 15 of each year;
+Added: failure to make timely payment could result in termination of the Company’s rights for that
+Added: Although the agreement provides for automatic one-year renewals, IPG’s rights must be secured annually, and there can be no
+Added: assurance that the agreement will be renewed on favorable terms, or at all.
+Added: We have a going concern qualification and
+Added: a history of net losses and accumulated deficits.
+Added: Both IPG and Flash have received
+Added: going concern qualifications from their respective auditors.
+Added: As of December 31, 2024, IPG had an accumulated deficit of approximately
+Added: $4.6 million and a working capital deficit of approximately $1.9 million.
+Added: Flash had an accumulated deficit of $500,000 as of December
+Added: 31, 2024 and had never generated revenue.
+Added: The Company (legacy urban-gro) had an accumulated deficit of approximately $120.6 million and
+Added: a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $40.9 million as of December 31, 2025.
+Added: There can be no assurance that the combined entity
+Added: will achieve or sustain profitability.
+Added: Our revenue is concentrated among a limited
+Added: number of customers and geographies.
+Added: For the year ended December
+Added: 31, 2024, approximately 82% of IPG’s total revenue was generated from customers based in Sri Lanka, with the remaining 18% derived
+Added: from Zimbabwe.
+Added: In 2023, sales to four customers individually exceeded 10% of IPG’s total revenue, collectively representing approximately
+Added: 53% of total revenue.
+Added: The loss of any significant customer or a significant reduction in business from Sri Lanka or Zimbabwe could have
+Added: a material adverse effect on our financial performance.
+Added: The Company continues to focus on efforts to diversify its customer base to mitigate
+Added: Our business is dependent on the continued
+Added: popularity and growth of cricket, particularly T20 cricket, in our target markets.
+Added: Our revenue is substantially
+Added: derived from the commercialization of T20 cricket league rights.
+Added: Any decline in the popularity of cricket or T20 cricket in Sri Lanka,
+Added: or in international markets where we distribute media content, could reduce demand for media rights, sponsorships, franchise ownership,
+Added: and ticketing, which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
+Added: We are subject to risks associated with
+Added: international operations.
+Added: The Company conducts operations
+Added: in the United Arab Emirates, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, and other international markets, and is subject to risks inherent in international operations,
+Added: including political and economic instability, currency fluctuation risk, regulatory uncertainty, foreign tax regimes (including the recently
+Added: enacted UAE Corporate Tax), sanctions and trade restrictions, cultural and legal differences, and challenges in enforcing contractual
+Added: rights across jurisdictions.
+Added: Any of these factors could materially and adversely affect our operations and financial results.
+Added: We depend on key personnel, including the
+Added: founder and chairman of IPG.
+Added: The Company’s success
+Added: depends in significant part on the continued services and leadership of key individuals, including Anil Mohan Sankhdhar, the founder and
+Added: chairman of IPG, who has been instrumental in building the Company’s relationships with SLC, franchise owners, sponsors, and broadcast
+Added: partners, and Bradley Nattrass, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
+Added: The loss of any of these individuals’
+Added: services could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.
+Added: We do not currently maintain key-person life insurance on
+Added: any of our executives.
+Added: Force majeure events, including pandemics,
+Added: natural disasters, terrorism, and political unrest, could disrupt our tournament operations.
+Added: The LPL and our other cricket
+Added: events are live, in-person sporting events that are subject to disruption or cancellation due to force majeure events.
+Added: Under the Event
+Added: Rights Agreement, the full Event Rights Fee remains payable by the Event Rights Partner to SLC even if the whole or any part of the Tournament
+Added: is curtailed, cancelled, or abandoned due to any Force Majeure event, after the date of commencement of the Tournament.
+Added: Force Majeure
+Added: events include, but are not limited to, acts of God, war, riot, strike, civil commotion, terrorism, pandemics, epidemics, fire, earthquake,
+Added: storm, flood, tsunami, explosion, and acts of Government.
+Added: Any such disruption could materially and adversely affect our revenue, reputation,
+Added: and operations.
+Added: Our expansion into new markets and new business
+Added: verticals involves significant risks and uncertainties.
+Added: We have announced expansion
+Added: plans for T20 cricket league operations in Malaysia, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, and the United Arab Emirates.
+Added: We are also pursuing potential
+Added: strategic combinations and partnerships in the esports and entertainment sectors, including a potential combination with Infinity Esports
+Added: & Gaming, a Latin American esports organization that operates gaming centers across multiple countries and holds branded intellectual
+Added: properties, and the potential development of Dune Bridge Capital, an investment and strategic capital deployment vertical focused on film,
+Added: television, sports, and digital media.
+Added: Each of these initiatives involves significant execution risk, including the need to negotiate
+Added: and execute definitive agreements, secure regulatory approvals, recruit qualified local personnel, obtain adequate financing, and build
+Added: local infrastructure.
+Added: As of the date of this Report, no definitive agreements have been entered into with respect to the esports or entertainment
+Added: There can be no assurance that any of these expansion or diversification initiatives will be completed on the terms anticipated,
+Added: or at all, or that they will generate the revenue or returns expected.
+Added: We face significant competition in the sports
+Added: media and entertainment industry.
+Added: The sports media and entertainment
+Added: industry is highly competitive.
+Added: We compete for viewership, sponsorship dollars, franchise investment, media rights fees, and talent with
+Added: larger, better-capitalized companies and established cricket leagues, including the IPL, BBL, CPL, PSL, and SA20.
+Added: Many of our competitors
+Added: have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources than we do.
+Added: There can be no assurance that we will be
+Added: able to compete effectively.
+Added: Risks Related to the Merger and Integration
+Added: The Merger may not achieve its intended
+Added: benefits, and integration of the combined businesses involves significant risks.
+Added: The success of the Merger
+Added: depends on, among other things, our ability to successfully integrate the operations, technologies, and personnel of Flash, IPG, and the
+Added: legacy urban-gro business, achieve anticipated revenue growth, realize cost synergies, and retain key customers, partners, and employees.
+Added: Integration may be more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected, and there can be no assurance that we will realize the expected
+Added: benefits of the Merger.
+Added: Following the Merger, former Flash
+Added: stockholders are expected to own a minimum of 90% of the combined company, resulting in significant dilution to existing
+Added: stockholders.
+Added: Under the terms of the Merger
+Added: Agreement, Flash stockholders received shares of UGRO common stock equal to 19.99% of the outstanding shares immediately prior to certain
+Added: prior issuances, as well as shares of newly created non-voting convertible preferred stock that, upon stockholder approval of the conversion,
+Added: would result in former Flash stockholders owning approximately 90% of the combined company on a fully-converted basis.
+Added: This represents
+Added: substantial dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders.
+Added: The Company changed its independent auditor
+Added: in connection with the Merger, which may increase the risk of accounting errors or restatements.
+Added: On March 03, 2026, the Company dismissed Sadler, Gibb & Associates,
+Added: LLC as its independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Suri and Co., Chartered Accountants of Chennai, India to
+Added: audit the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
+Added: The transition to a new auditor during a period of
+Added: significant business transformation increases the risk of accounting errors, delays in financial reporting, or the need for restatements.
+Added: Risks Related to Nasdaq Listing and Capital
+Added: We have a history of non-compliance with
+Added: Nasdaq listing standards and may be unable to maintain our Nasdaq listing.
+Added: The Company has experienced
+Added: multiple instances of non-compliance with Nasdaq listing standards, including the minimum bid price requirement, timely filing of periodic
+Added: reports, minimum stockholders’ equity requirement, and annual meeting requirement.
+Added: While the Company regained compliance with these
+Added: requirements as of March 2026, Nasdaq has placed the Company on a one-year Discretionary Panel Monitor under Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(A).
+Added: Any future non-compliance could result in delisting, which would materially and adversely affect the liquidity and trading price of our
+Added: common stock.
+Added: We have limited liquidity and may require
+Added: additional financing to fund our operations.
+Added: As of December 31, 2025, the
+Added: Company had cash of approximately $10,000 and negative working capital of approximately $42.7 million.
+Added: Our ability to continue operations
+Added: is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient revenue and/or obtain financing.
+Added: There can be no assurance that additional financing
+Added: will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.
+Added: If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required
+Added: to reduce the scope of our planned development, which could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.
+Added: We have significant outstanding liabilities
+Added: and legal proceedings that could adversely affect our financial condition.
+Added: The Company has significant
+Added: accounts payable, contract liabilities, notes payable, and accrued expenses.
+Added: Additionally, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings,
+Added: including lawsuits by creditors, equipment suppliers, and former contractors.
+Added: Adverse outcomes in any of these proceedings could materially
+Added: affect our financial position and results of operations.
+Added: Risks Related to Regulatory and Legal Matters
+Added: We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery,
+Added: and sports integrity laws and regulations.
+Added: The Company and its subsidiaries,
+Added: sub-licensees, franchise holders, and team owners are required to comply with anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws in all jurisdictions
+Added: in which we operate, as well as ICC anti-corruption codes.
+Added: Any violation of these laws or codes could result in criminal penalties, fines,
+Added: suspension, or termination of our Event Rights, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
+Added: Changes in tax laws or regulations, including
+Added: the recently enacted UAE Corporate Tax, could increase our tax burden.
+Added: IPG is subject to the UAE
+Added: Corporate Tax Law effective January 1, 2024, which imposes a 9% tax on taxable income exceeding the exemption threshold.
+Added: Changes in applicable
+Added: tax laws or their interpretation, or the enactment of new taxes in jurisdictions where we operate, could increase our effective tax rate
+Added: and adversely affect our financial results.
+Added: The Event Rights Agreement is governed by
+Added: Sri Lankan law and disputes are subject to international arbitration, which may be costly and time-consuming.
+Added: The Event Rights Agreement
+Added: is governed by the laws of Sri Lanka, and disputes are subject to arbitration in Colombo under the Rules of the International Chamber
+Added: The number of arbitrators shall be three, and each party shall be entitled to select one arbitrator each, with the third
+Added: selected jointly to act as Chairman of the Arbitral Tribunal.
+Added: Enforcing contractual rights through international arbitration may be more
+Added: costly, time-consuming, and uncertain than litigation in U.S.
+Added: courts, and arbitral awards may be difficult to enforce in other jurisdictions.

We may also be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or debt securities.

This potentially would have a negative impact on our share price.
−Removed: To the extent that future net losses are in excess
−Removed: of additions to equity, we may fall below the Nasdaq’s listing requirement of having a net equity balance of at least $2,500,000.
−Removed: fail to continue to satisfy this or any other continued listing requirements, Nasdaq will take steps to delist our common stock.
−Removed: a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair shareholders’ ability to sell
−Removed: or purchase our common stock when they wish to do so, as well as adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and obtain
−Removed: additional financing in the future.
−Removed: We may become subject to additional regulation
−Removed: of CEA facilities.
−Removed: Our engineering and design
−Removed: services are focused on facilities that grow a wide variety of crops that are subject to regulation by the United States Food and Drug
−Removed: Administration and other federal, state or foreign agencies.
−Removed: Changes to any regulations and laws that could complicate the engineering
−Removed: of these CEA facilities, such as waste water treatment and electricity-related mandates, make it possible that potential related enforcement
−Removed: could decrease the demand for our services, and in turn negatively impact our revenues and business opportunities.
−Removed: Competition in the various sectors in which
−Removed: we operate is intense.
−Removed: There are many competitors
−Removed: in the industries in which we operate, including many who offer somewhat categorically similar professional services and equipment solutions
−Removed: as those offered by us.
−Removed: In the future other companies may enter this arena by developing solutions that directly compete with us.
−Removed: We anticipate
−Removed: the presence as well as entry of other companies in this market space and acknowledge that we may not be able to establish, or if established
−Removed: to maintain, a competitive advantage.
−Removed: Some of these companies have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger client
−Removed: bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources.
−Removed: This may allow them to respond more quickly than
−Removed: us to market opportunities.
−Removed: It may also allow them to devote greater resources to the marketing, promotion and sale of their products
−Removed: and/or services.
−Removed: These competitors may also adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more attractive offers to existing and potential
−Removed: clients, employees, strategic partners, distribution channels and advertisers.
−Removed: Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions,
−Removed: reduced gross margins and a potential loss of market share.
−Removed: We depend upon third-party suppliers for
−Removed: the equipment solutions that we sell.
−Removed: We depend on outside manufacturers
−Removed: for the equipment solutions that we sell.
−Removed: While we believe that there are sufficient sources of supply available, if the third-party suppliers
−Removed: were to cease production or otherwise fail to supply us with products in sufficient quantities on a timely basis and we were unable to
−Removed: contract on acceptable terms for these equipment type products with alternative suppliers, our ability to sell these solutions would be
−Removed: materially adversely affected.
−Removed: If a sole source supplier was to go out of business, we may be unable to find a replacement for such source
−Removed: in a timely manner or at all.
−Removed: If a sole source supplier were to be acquired by a competitor, that competitor may elect not to sell to
−Removed: us in the future.
−Removed: Any inability to secure required products or to do so on appropriate terms could have a materially adverse impact on
−Removed: the business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects of urban-gro.
−Removed: We have historically depended on a small
−Removed: number of clients for a substantial portion of our revenue.
−Removed: If we fail to retain or expand our client relationships, or if a significant
−Removed: client were to terminate its relationship with us or reduce its purchases, our revenue could decline significantly.
−Removed: Although we have been able
−Removed: to successfully generate substantial sales to different clients over time, we may not be able to continue to do this in the future.
−Removed: operating results for the foreseeable future could continue to depend on substantial sales to a small number of clients.
−Removed: Our clients have
−Removed: no purchase commitments and may cancel, change or delay purchases with little or no notice or penalty.
−Removed: As a result of this, our revenue
−Removed: could fluctuate materially and could be materially and disproportionately impacted by purchasing decisions of any client.
−Removed: represent a substantial portion of our historical revenue may decide to purchase products and services from other providers in the future,
−Removed: which could cause our revenue to decline materially and negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.
−Removed: unable to diversify our client base, we will continue to be susceptible to risks associated with client concentration.
−Removed: A portion of our business depends on our

−Removed: A portion of our business
−Removed: depends on our clients obtaining appropriate licenses from various licensing agencies.
−Removed: Any or all licenses necessary for our clients to
−Removed: operate their businesses may not be obtained, retained or renewed.
−Removed: If a licensing body were to determine that one of our clients had violated
−Removed: applicable rules and regulations, there is a risk the license granted to that client could be revoked, which could adversely affect future
−Removed: sales to that client and our operations.
−Removed: Our existing clients may not be able to retain their licenses going forward and new licenses
−Removed: may not be granted to existing and new market entrants.
−Removed: System security risks, data protection breaches,
−Removed: cyber-attacks and systems integration issues could disrupt our internal operations or services provided to clients.
−Removed: Experienced computer programmers
−Removed: and hackers may be able to penetrate our network security and misappropriate or compromise our confidential information or that of third

−Removed: Risks Related to the Legal Cannabis Industry
−Removed: To date, the majority of our revenues have
−Removed: come from providing architecture and engineering design services and selling equipment systems into facilities prior to the facility becoming
−Removed: The majority of our revenues to date have been generated from clients that operate in the legal cannabis industry.
−Removed: We are broadening our market
−Removed: reach beyond the legal cannabis industry and are placing a substantial sales effort on expansion into the rapidly growing non-cannabis
−Removed: CEA vertical farming sector as well as the Commercial sector.
−Removed: However, on a historic basis, the majority of our clients to whom we provide
−Removed: facility architecture and engineering design services and sell equipment systems prior to the facility becoming operational have primarily
−Removed: been in the legal cannabis industry.
−Removed: In addition to selling directly to these clients, we also sell our equipment solutions to third parties,
−Removed: such as general contractors and other intermediaries, like equipment leasing companies.
−Removed: The majority of these solutions have been resold
−Removed: into the legal cannabis industry.
−Removed: A significant decrease in demand in the legal cannabis industry could have a material adverse effect
−Removed: on our revenues and the success of our business.
−Removed: The cannabis industry in the U.S.
−Removed: emerging industry and has only been legalized in some states while remaining illegal in others and under U.S.
−Removed: Federal Prohibition
−Removed: makes it difficult to accurately forecast the demand for our solutions in this specific industry.
−Removed: Losing clients from this industry may
−Removed: have a material adverse effect on our revenues and the success of our business.
−Removed: The legal cannabis industry
−Removed: is not mature in the United States and has been legalized in only some states and remains illegal in others and under U.S.
−Removed: making it difficult to accurately forecast demand for our solutions.
−Removed: Revenues could materially decline if the U.S.
−Removed: Department of Justice
−Removed: (“DOJ”) enforces federal law against the industry and some of our clients are negatively impacted.
−Removed: The legal cannabis industry
−Removed: remains in state of flux, and many aspects of this industry’s development and evolution cannot be accurately predicted.
−Removed: Therefore, losing any clients could have a material adverse effect on our business.
−Removed: While we have attempted to identify our business risks
−Removed: in the legal cannabis industry, investors should carefully consider that there are other risks that cannot be foreseen or are not described
−Removed: in this Report, which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial performance.
−Removed: As cannabis remains illegal under United
−Removed: States federal law, we may have to stop providing equipment systems and services to companies who are engaged in cannabis cultivation
−Removed: and other cannabis-related activities.
−Removed: Cannabis, which is referred
−Removed: to as “Marijuana” in the Controlled Substances Act, is currently classified as a Schedule I controlled substance under the Controlled
−Removed: Substances Act and is illegal under United States federal law.
−Removed: It is illegal under United States federal law to grow, cultivate, sell
−Removed: or possess cannabis for any purpose or to assist or conspire with those who do so.
−Removed: Additionally, 21 U.S.C.
−Removed: 856 makes it illegal to “knowingly
−Removed: open, lease, rent, use, or maintain any place, whether permanently or temporarily, for the purpose of manufacturing, distributing, or
−Removed: using any controlled substance.” Even in those states in which the use of cannabis has been authorized under state law, its use remains
−Removed: a violation of federal law.
−Removed: Since federal law criminalizing the use of cannabis is not preempted by state laws that legalize its use,
−Removed: strict enforcement of federal law regarding cannabis may result in the inability of our clients that are involved in the cannabis industry
−Removed: to proceed with their operations, which would adversely affect our operations.
−Removed: Our solutions are used by legal and licensed
−Removed: cannabis growers.
−Removed: While we are not aware of any threatened or current federal or state law enforcement actions against any supplier of
−Removed: equipment that might be used for cannabis cultivation, law enforcement authorities, in their attempt to regulate the illegal use of cannabis,
−Removed: may seek to bring an action or actions against us under the Controlled Substances Act for assisting or conspiring with persons engaged
−Removed: in the cultivation of cannabis.
−Removed: There is also a risk that
−Removed: our activities could be deemed to be facilitating the selling or distribution of cannabis in violation of the Controlled Substances Act.
−Removed: Although federal authorities have not focused their resources on such tangential or secondary violations of the Controlled Substances
−Removed: Act, nor have they threatened to do so, with respect to the sale of equipment that might be used by legal and licensed cannabis cultivators,
−Removed: or with respect to any supplies marketed to participants in the medical and recreational cannabis industry, if the federal government
−Removed: were to change its practices, or were to expend its resources investigating and prosecuting providers of equipment that could be usable
−Removed: by participants in the medical or recreational cannabis industry, such actions could have a materially adverse effect on our operations
−Removed: and the sales of our products and services.
−Removed: As a company with clients operating in the
−Removed: legal cannabis industry, we face many particular and evolving risks associated with that industry, including uncertainty of United States
−Removed: federal enforcement and the need to renew temporary safeguards.
−Removed: The “FinCEN Memo”
−Removed: dated February 14, 2014, de-prioritizes enforcement of the Bank Secrecy Act against financial institutions and cannabis related businesses
−Removed: which utilize them.
−Removed: This memorandum appears to be a standalone document and is presumptively still in effect.
−Removed: At any time, however, the
−Removed: Department of the Treasury, Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, could elect to rescind the FinCEN Memo.
−Removed: This would make it more difficult
−Removed: for our clients and potential clients to access the U.S.
−Removed: banking systems and conduct financial transactions, which would adversely affect
−Removed: our operations.
−Removed: In 2014, Congress passed a
−Removed: spending bill (“2015 Appropriations Bill”) containing a provision (“Appropriations Rider”) blocking federal funds
−Removed: and resources allocated under the 2015 Appropriations Bill from being used to “prevent such States from implementing their own State
−Removed: medical marijuana law.” The Appropriations Rider seemed to have prohibited the federal government from interfering with the ability
−Removed: of states to administer their medical cannabis laws, although it did not codify federal protections for medical cannabis patients and
−Removed: Moreover, despite the Appropriations Rider, the Justice Department maintains that it can still prosecute violations of the
−Removed: federal cannabis ban and continue cases already in the courts.
−Removed: Additionally, the Appropriations Rider must be re-enacted every year.
−Removed: it has been continued every year since 2015, including most recently in 2022, continued re-authorization of the Appropriations Rider cannot
−Removed: be guaranteed.
−Removed: If the Appropriation Rider is no longer in effect, the risk of federal enforcement and override of state cannabis laws
−Removed: would increase.
−Removed: Further legislative development beneficial
−Removed: to our operations is not guaranteed.
−Removed: Among other things, the business
−Removed: of our clients in the legal cannabis industry involves the cultivation, distribution, manufacture, storage, transportation and/or sale
−Removed: of cannabis products in compliance with applicable state law.

−Removed: Any number of factors could slow or halt progress

−Removed: Further regulatory progress beneficial to the industry cannot be assured.
−Removed: While there may be ample public support for legislative
−Removed: action, numerous factors impact the legislative and regulatory process, including election results, scientific findings or general public
−Removed: Any one of these factors could slow or halt progressive legislation relating to cannabis and the current tolerance for the use
−Removed: of cannabis by consumers, which could adversely affect our operations.
−Removed: The legal cannabis industry could face strong
−Removed: opposition from other industries.
−Removed: We believe that established
−Removed: businesses in other industries may have a strong economic interest in opposing the development of the cannabis industry.
−Removed: be seen by companies in other industries as an attractive alternative to their products, including recreational cannabis as an alternative
−Removed: to alcohol, and medical cannabis as an alternative to various commercial pharmaceuticals.
−Removed: Many industries that could view the emerging
−Removed: legal cannabis industry as an economic threat are well established, with vast economic and United States federal and state lobbying resources.
−Removed: Companies within these industries could use their resources to attempt to slow or reverse legislation legalizing cannabis.
−Removed: these companies make in halting or impeding legislative initiatives that would be beneficial to the legal cannabis industry could have
−Removed: a detrimental impact on our clients and, in turn on our operations.
−Removed: The legality of cannabis could be reversed
−Removed: in one or more states.
−Removed: The voters or legislatures
−Removed: of states in which cannabis has already been legalized could potentially repeal applicable laws which permit the operation of both legal
−Removed: medical and retail cannabis businesses.
−Removed: These actions might force us to cease operations in one or more states entirely.
−Removed: Changing legislation and evolving interpretations
−Removed: of law, which could negatively impact our clients and, in turn, our operations.
−Removed: Laws and regulations affecting
−Removed: the legal medical and adult-use cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our clients involved in that

−Removed: Local, state and federal cannabis laws and regulations are often broad in scope and subject to
−Removed: constant evolution and inconsistent interpretations, which could require our clients and ourselves to incur substantial costs associated
−Removed: with modification of operations to ensure compliance.
−Removed: In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could
−Removed: disrupt our clients’ business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations.
−Removed: In addition, regulations may be enacted
−Removed: in the future that will limit the amount of cannabis growth or related products that our commercial clients are authorized to produce.
−Removed: We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional
−Removed: governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our operations.
−Removed: Regulatory scrutiny of the legal cannabis
−Removed: industry may negatively impact our ability to raise additional capital.
−Removed: The business activities of
−Removed: certain of our clients rely on newly established and/or developing laws and regulations in multiple jurisdictions.
−Removed: These laws and regulations
−Removed: are rapidly evolving and subject to change with minimal notice.
−Removed: Regulatory changes may adversely affect our profitability or cause us
−Removed: to cease operations entirely.
−Removed: The legal cannabis industry may come under the scrutiny or further scrutiny by the United States Food and
−Removed: Drug Administration (the “FDA”), the SEC, the DOJ, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or other federal, state or nongovernmental
−Removed: regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations that supervise or regulate the production, distribution, sale or use of cannabis
−Removed: for medical or nonmedical purposes in the United States.
−Removed: The FDA currently is authorized to promulgate regulations for and oversight of
−Removed: CBD products.
−Removed: It is impossible to determine the extent of the impact of any new laws, regulations or initiatives that may be proposed,

−Removed: business and operations, including without limitation, the costs to remain compliant with applicable laws and the impairment of our ability
−Removed: to raise additional capital.
−Removed: Banking regulations could limit access to
−Removed: banking services.
−Removed: Since the use of cannabis
−Removed: is illegal under federal law, federally chartered banks will not accept deposit funds from businesses involved with cannabis.
−Removed: Consequently,
−Removed: businesses involved in the legal cannabis industry often have trouble finding a bank willing to accept their business.
−Removed: The inability to
−Removed: open bank accounts may make it difficult for our clients in the legal cannabis industry to operate and their reliance on cash can result
−Removed: in a heightened risk of theft, which could harm their businesses and, in turn, harm our business.
−Removed: Additionally, some courts have denied
−Removed: legal cannabis-related businesses bankruptcy protection, thus, making it very difficult for lenders to recoup their investments, which
−Removed: may limit the willingness of banks to lend to our clients and to us.
−Removed: A drop in the retail price of cannabis products
−Removed: may negatively impact our business.
−Removed: The fluctuations in economic
−Removed: and market conditions that impact the prices of commercially grown cannabis, such as increases in the supply of cannabis and decreases
−Removed: in demand for cannabis, could have a negative impact on our clients that are legal cannabis producers, and therefore could negatively
−Removed: impact our business.
−Removed: Our contracts may not be legally enforceable
−Removed: in the United States.
