Jeff Swainson, President and CEO of SSC, stated: "Q3 2024 is shaping up to be a transformative quarter for SSC with strong organic revenue growth in Astrolab, Frootyhooty and Lamplighter being complimented by the closing of our CannMart Inc. acquisition on September 12, 2024. The deployment of capital into CannMart Inc.'s Roilty and Zest Cannabis inventory is ramping revenue, and material cost reductions are being achieved through our CannMart restructuring efforts. Overall, Q3 2024's projected annualized gross revenue, adjusted EBITDA and normalized net income of $28,000,000, $4,000,000, and $3,600,000 respectively. SSC's projected September 2024 annualized gross revenue of $33,000,000 demonstrates our current revenue growth trajectory as we continue towards our goal of $40,000,000 annualized gross revenue, $6,200,000 annualized adjusted EBITDA and $6,000,000 annualized normalized net income."

Q3 2024 Guidance

SSC projects record quarterly gross revenue during Q3 2024 of approximately $7,000,000 (Q2 2024 - $4,232,663, Q3 2023 - $1,479,055), representing growth rates of 65% quarter over quarter and 373% compared to the same quarter last year. SSC's projected revenue growth is attributable to the organic growth of SSC's brands Astrolab and Frootyhooty and SSC's acquisition of CannMart Inc., including the brands Roilty and Zest Cannabis, on September 12, 2024.

SSC projects Q3 2024 adjusted EBITDA of approximately $1,000,000 (Q2 2024 - $952,986, Q3 2023 - $270,009) (see Non-IFRS Financial Measures, below), representing growth rates of 5% quarter over quarter and 270% compared to the same quarter last year, and normalized net income of approximately $900,000 (Q2 2024 - $890,815, Q3 2023 - $190,896) (see Non-IFRS Financial Measures, below), consistent with the prior quarter and a growth rate of 372% compared to the same quarter last year.

During Q3 2024 SSC has had slightly lower B2B and tolling revenue compared to Q2 2024 due to seasonality, as Q3 has historically lower B2B and tolling sales. This is expected to slightly reduce gross margins for Q3 2024. B2B and tolling revenue is expected to return to Q2 2024 levels during Q4 2024. SSC also expects that cost synergies related to the acquisition of CannMart Inc. will be fully realized by early Q4 2024, contributing to profitability.
