CLS Reports Fiscal First Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Strong year-over-year revenue growth of 10%, with sustained gross profit margin of 50%

Newly appointed CEO, Andrew Glashow, to lead next phase of accelerated company growth

Completes first harvest after quarter-end through joint venture with Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe in Northern Nevada

LAS VEGAS, NV / ACCESSWIRE / October 13, 2022 / CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (OTCQB:CLSH)(CSE:CLSH), (the ''Company'' or ''CLS''), a diversified cannabis company operating as Cannabis Life Sciences, today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2022 ("Q1 2023"). All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.

Q1 2023 Financial & Operational Highlights

Management Commentary

"I am thrilled to report solid revenue growth driven by both our retail dispensary and highly visible brand offerings in Nevada's wholesale market," said Andrew Glashow, President and Chief Executive Officer of CLS. "Since stepping in as CEO, I have been delighted by the performance of the entire team and want to thank them for their dedication which helped drive sustained gross margin and profitability. Looking ahead, we are focused on deliberately managing our expenses while leveraging the scale we have built to expand our profitability and deliver strong value for our shareholders."

Mr. Glashow added, "Subsequent to the quarter end, we completed our first harvest through our joint venture with the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe in Northern Nevada. While the cost of that project is reflected in our current financial results, the high-quality flower we cultivated is only just coming to market and is expected to produce meaningful top- and bottom-line expansion throughout the remainder of our fiscal year."

Subsequent Events

Outlook

Despite headwinds which have impeded growth in the broader cannabis industry, the Company expects to expand its wholesale market share in Nevada as it sells through the cannabis grown through its joint venture with Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe. In addition, the Company expects to improve its profitability by reducing its annual corporate expenses by approximately $2.0 million while actively managing rising labor costs. This is anticipated to be achieved through a combination of a $1.0 million reduction in interest expense as a result of the recent restructuring of the Company's December Debentures as well as continued thoughtful management of the Company's corporate overhead expenses.
