Grown Rogue Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results

Steady Execution Across Existing and New Markets; 2026 and 2027 Guidance and Growth Targets Maintained

MEDFORD, Ore., Nov. 12, 2026 /CNW/ - Grown Rogue International Inc. ("Grown Rogue," "we," "us," "our," or the "Company") (CSE: GRIN) (OTC: GRUSF), a flower-forward cannabis company combining craft values with disciplined execution, today reported its unaudited financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Results are presented in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Comparative periods have been recast, where applicable, in accordance with GAAP.

Obie Strickler, Chief Executive Officer, said: "For us, it always comes back to the people buying what we make. They're spending their hard-earned money and trusting us to deliver products worth coming back for. We take that responsibility seriously, and as we grow, so does our commitment to getting it consistently right. I'm incredibly proud of how our team has maintained that focus while bringing several new markets online simultaneously. We've welcomed talented new people who are working alongside our existing team, bringing fresh perspectives to our deep operational experience. This combination gives me tremendous confidence in our ability to execute on our ambitious growth plans."

Highlights

•Revenue: Revenue of $11.0 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared with $8.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 29% (25% excluding the Michigan wholesale excise tax reported as revenue). Growth was driven by revenue increases of 44% in New Jersey, 21% in Oregon and 19% in Michigan (5% excluding the excise tax).
•Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) of $2.6 million, compared with $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2025, with an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.3%. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the reconciliation schedule.
•GAAP Net Loss: Net loss was $8.9 million, compared with net income of $1.6 million in the prior-year period. The quarter included a $5.0 million loss on acquisition of Rogue EBC, LLC, following the Company's decision to enter Illinois through the existing, formerly PharmaCann-operated Dwight cultivation facility under its arrangement with SEA Craft, rather than develop the planned Waukegan facility.
•Cash Position: Cash and cash equivalents of $16.6 million at September 30, 2026, compared with $11.5 million at June 30, 2026, with the increase related to the consolidation of Grown Rogue New York, LLC ("GRNY"), which is the Company's 51%-owned subsidiary with agreements to manage and plans to acquire the license and select assets of PharmaCann of New York LLC ("PCNY"), offset by planned capital expenditures in New Jersey and Minnesota.
•Operating Performance: New Jersey delivered strong financial results alongside continued improvements in flower quality and yields. Oregon and Michigan increased total flower yields and reduced production costs in highly price-competitive markets.
•New Market Milestones: Cultivation commenced at the Fridley, Minnesota facility, with the first harvest scheduled at the end of November. Affiliate SEA Craft completed its first flower sales in Illinois after quarter-end. Work has also begun to revitalize cultivation in Hamptonburgh, New York, under Grown Rogue's agreements with PCNY, with the first harvest scheduled in December.
•Guidance: The Company is maintaining its 2026 guidance of $38-$41 million in revenue and $7-$9 million in Adjusted EBITDA, and its 2027 guidance of $55-$63 million in revenue and $14-$18 million in Adjusted EBITDA, along with its long-term growth objectives. These expectations exclude New York. Management plans to revisit these expectations to incorporate New York when reporting fourth quarter and full year 2026 results.

Management Commentary and Outlook

"New Jersey had another strong quarter, with the consistent sell-through of branded, packaged products at attractive pricing demonstrating our ability to resonate with customers, and continued progress in our quality and efficiency KPIs," said Obie Strickler. "We're excited to have plants growing in Minnesota, with our first harvest in late November, and our first branded flower already on the shelves in Illinois. Entering a market is just the beginning. The real work now begins to earn the trust and respect of customers by making sure our passion and relentless focus on quality products shine through.

"Oregon and Michigan remain foundational markets for honing our operations and developing our talent. I'm really pleased with the progress these teams are making in improving yields and bringing costs down, while building bench strength and finding better ways of working that carry across our markets. They keep raising the bar for what I think is possible in efficiency and quality."

Josh Rosen, Chief Strategy Officer, added: "Two years ago, we believed that increasing distress in some corners of the cannabis industry would create significant opportunities for companies positioned to act. Since then, we've strengthened Grown Rogue with supportive capital and additional talent, building an organization ready for greater scale. Those opportunities have now materialized, with our announced plans to enter New York the largest to date."

"Our focus remains on execution. In New York specifically, PCNY's existing infrastructure gives us a substantial foundation, and I'm pleased with how quickly our team and the local PCNY team have mobilized to restart cultivation and re-energize the dispensaries. We anticipate PCNY should be back in the wholesale market in early 2027 and we are working diligently to support the execution of the purchase agreements and regulatory approvals needed to close these transactions."

Andrew Marchington, Chief Financial Officer, said: "The $5.0 million loss on the acquisition of Rogue EBC reflects the accounting impact associated with that transaction following our decision to pursue the existing turnkey Dwight facility rather than build a new facility in Waukegan. We are in discussions to offset some of our ongoing Rogue EBC obligations."

He added: "We're expanding our finance and support teams alongside our operating footprint, particularly to manage the increased work coming from our New York efforts. The New York transaction will add complexity to our fourth quarter and year-end closing and audit process. Assuming we execute the definitive purchase agreements in the fourth quarter, we anticipate the need to consolidate PCNY's results beginning on the date of the executed purchase agreements.  PCNY's corporate parent has been liquidating assets for more than a year and we anticipate the combination of headcount attrition and liquidity constraints may impact their ability to support our back-office integration and transition priorities, including our audit, and we are proactively preparing for these challenges."

Third Quarter Operating Update

New Jersey revenue was $4.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $2.4 million, up 44% and 65%, respectively, from the third quarter of 2025. Compared with the second quarter of 2026, total flower yield increased to 63 grams per square foot from 61, and "A" flower yield increased to 45 grams per square foot from 41. Phase II construction continued toward approximately 16,000 square feet of total flowering canopy, with substantial completion targeted by year-end and additional capacity expected to contribute more significantly to sales in 2027.

As anticipated, Oregon and Michigan remained highly price-competitive. Compared with the second quarter, total flower yield increased to 85 grams per square foot from 76 in Oregon and to 93 from 90 in Michigan. Cost per pound declined to $284 from $326 in Oregon and to $255 from $277 in Michigan. These improvements supported operating efficiency and informed practices across the broader organization, although pricing continued to weigh on financial performance.

In Minnesota, cultivation began at our Fridley facility following approval to operate. Phase I includes approximately 8,000 square feet of flowering canopy across five constructed flower rooms, being populated sequentially. The first harvest is anticipated in late November, with harvests every two weeks thereafter and first sales expected in January 2027.

New York Transaction Update

In August 2026, Grown Rogue established its 51%-owned subsidiary, GRNY, and entered into financing, consulting, lease and funding arrangements supporting the planned acquisition of PharmaCann's New York license and most of its assets. The planned transaction includes the Hamptonburgh cultivation and manufacturing facility and four Verilife dispensaries.

Under the Goods and Services Agreement ("GSA") executed on August 20, 2026, GRNY began supporting the operating transition, including the revitalization of cultivation at Hamptonburgh. The first harvest is anticipated in December 2026. Immediate priorities include establishing consistent cultivation performance and re-energizing the existing retail business following several months of heavy promotional and product liquidation activity.

A capital partner invested $10 million for a 49% preferred equity interest in GRNY and committed an additional $5 million drawable term loan. At announcement, estimated project costs, including the acquisition, capital expenditures and working capital, were approximately $12 million. A secured funding facility of up to $9 million from GRNY to PCNY supports the transition.

Subsequent Events

The following developments occurred after September 30, 2026.

New Jersey ownership: On October 20, 2026, the Company announced completion of its second option exercise, increasing its ownership of ABCO Garden State, LLC ("ABCO") by 26% to 70% and obtaining majority board control. Regulatory approval was received on September 16, 2026. The approximately $743,000 consideration had been advanced in 2023.

Illinois first sales: On October 22, 2026, the Company announced that affiliate SEA Craft LLC ("SEA Craft") had completed its first deliveries of Grown Rogue products to select Illinois dispensaries that week. Initial flowering canopy comprises approximately 5,000 square feet, with initial expansion work toward approximately 10,000 square feet underway. The pace of additional capacity will be informed by operating performance and market demand, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.

Guidance and Long Term Growth Objectives

The Company is maintaining its previously announced 2026 and 2027 revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance and long-term growth objectives, with a reminder that the fourth quarter is typically seasonally slower than the third quarter. These expectations exclude New York. Management plans to revisit the outlook to incorporate New York when reporting fourth quarter and full year 2026 results.

Measure 2026 guidance 2027 guidance
Revenue $38-$41 million $55-$63 million
Adjusted EBITDA non-GAAP $7-$9 million $14-$18 million

The Company's three-to-five-year objectives, using 2027 as the base year, remain 25% annual compounded revenue growth, 35% annual compounded Adjusted EBITDA growth and return on incremental invested capital ("ROIIC") greater than 75%.

Grown Rogue's growth approach combines selective new builds, the revitalization of existing facilities and focused expansion of flower-forward products. Management evaluates opportunities using normalized market pricing and disciplined capital-allocation criteria.

Guidance Assumptions

The outlook continues to reflect Illinois sales beginning in Q4 2026, Minnesota first revenue in Q1 2027 and a greater contribution from New Jersey's Phase II expansion in 2027. Adjusted EBITDA guidance excludes pre-revenue startup expenses associated with new-market expansion, estimated at $1.5 million to $2.0 million in each of Illinois and Minnesota for 2026.

The previously disclosed 2027 framework assumes wholesale price normalization of approximately 10% in New Jersey and 5% in Illinois, no change in the Oregon and Michigan pricing environment, and Minnesota "A" flower wholesale pricing above $2,500 per pound. It also assumes continued capacity expansion in Illinois and Minnesota.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable Canadian and United States securities laws (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). These include statements regarding the Company's financial guidance and long-term growth and return objectives, including their exclusion of New York and the planned fourth quarter review; underlying pricing, margin, overhead and startup-cost assumptions; construction, commissioning, flowering canopy, production, harvest, sales and financial contributions in New Jersey, Illinois and Minnesota; the planned acquisition of PCNY, execution of definitive purchase agreements, regulatory submissions and approvals, closing conditions and timing; interim management, cultivation restart and retail operations in New York; the availability, terms and deployment of project financing; expected operating improvements, cash flow and capital requirements; product launches; funding of planned expansion; and future operating and financial performance.

Forward-looking statements are often identified by words or phrases such as "may," "would," "could," "should," "will," "intend," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "target," "guidance," "outlook," "forecast," "objective" and similar expressions, including their negative forms. The absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

Forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections as of the date of this release. These assumptions include, without limitation, assumptions regarding market conditions, wholesale pricing, consumer and retailer demand, competitive conditions, construction and commissioning timelines, the availability and cost of labour, materials and equipment, regulatory approvals and continued compliance with applicable licensing requirements, cultivation yields and product quality, the timing of new product and market launches, operating costs, access to capital and the Company's ability to fund its planned operations and expansion activities. With respect to New York, assumptions also include continuation of interim operating and lease arrangements, execution and performance of transaction agreements, receipt of required OCM approvals, availability of committed and additional capital when required, successful staffing and production ramp, and demand sufficient to support the operating plan.

Although the Company believes these expectations and assumptions are reasonable, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation: changes in general economic, business, political and financial-market conditions; changes in cannabis laws, regulations or enforcement policies; the timing or availability of required regulatory approvals; the continued illegality of cannabis under United States federal law; declines or volatility in wholesale cannabis pricing and demand; increased competition; variations in cultivation yields, product quality and production costs; construction, commissioning or ramp-up delays and cost overruns; the availability of labour, equipment and supplies; the Company's ability to generate sufficient cash flow or obtain financing on acceptable terms; and the other risks described in the Company's public disclosure documents filed through SEDAR+ and EDGAR. Additional risks include failure to complete the proposed PCNY acquisition, changes in transaction terms, interruptions during the transition, inability to realize projected cost savings or cash-flow improvements, limits on financing availability, financing costs and potential dilution, and adverse tax treatment, including continued application of Section 280E.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Future-oriented financial information and financial outlooks contained in this release are provided for the purpose of describing management's current expectations and may not be appropriate for other purposes.

The Company is indirectly involved, through its operating subsidiaries, in the cultivation, manufacture, possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis in the adult-use cannabis marketplace in the United States. Although these activities are permitted under applicable state laws in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, cannabis remains illegal under United States federal law.

Non GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents certain financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and return on incremental invested capital ("ROIIC"). These non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by GAAP and may not be comparable with similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental tools to evaluate the Company's underlying operating performance, compare results between periods and markets, and assess capital-allocation decisions. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest and accretion expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, including amortization in cost of sales. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA for share-based compensation, derivative gains and losses, interest and other income (expense), changes in the fair value of warrant assets and liabilities, the loss on acquisition of Rogue EBC, losses on equity investments in associates, the GAAP bad debt conversion adjustment, Golden Harvests acquisition costs and pre-operational startup costs, as applicable and as presented in the reconciliation schedule.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the corresponding revenue measure. ROIIC is defined as the change in operating profit divided by the change in invested capital over the relevant measurement period.

Reconciliations of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the accompanying schedules.
