(“Alcanna“) to be completed on or about March 31, 2022. All regulatory prerequisites below applicable provincial liquor and cannabis legislation have now been glad and completion of the Arrangement continues to be issue only to customary closing disorders as even further described in the Arrangement Settlement. Sundial and Alcanna have mutually agreed to prolong the outside the house day for closing the transaction by one working day to March 31, 2022.
Money Assertion Submitting Delay
The Firm also declared a delay in filing its audited consolidated money statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, annual management’s discussion and assessment for the exact period of time and management certifications of yearly filings (collectively, the “Filings“) past the deadline of March 31, 2022 prescribed by Canadian securities legal guidelines.

The Corporation now expects to report fourth quarter and complete 12 months 2021 earnings on or ahead of April 14, 2022. Up to date meeting simply call information will be supplied in a subsequent announcement.
Based mostly on unaudited financial statements ready by the management of the Business, Sundial expects to report report modified EBITDA from continuing operations for the entire calendar year 2021.
The principal rationale for the hold off is the major quantity of extra get the job done and in-depth methods demanded to be executed by the Company and its external auditor as 2021 is the first year that the Business is expected to have an auditor attestation report on its interior controls about fiscal reporting under Portion 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX“). This need to be SOX compliant is a purpose of the quick development in scale and stage of corporate exercise Sundial has realized about the very last two decades. SOX compliance necessitates heightened ranges of company controls and processes that will in the long run gain Sundial shareholders by way of very best procedures in possibility administration.
The Firm’s auditor is completing its external audit and will be unable to situation an audit feeling prior to the close of March 2022 as earlier expected. The Enterprise thinks that there will be no restatement of earlier released fiscal statements of Sundial.
The Corporation has educated the personnel of the Alberta Securities Fee (the “ASC“) about its expected hold off of the Filings and has applied to the ASC pursuant to Aspect 4 of Nationwide Coverage 12-203 – Administration Cease Trade Orders (“NP 12-203“) for a Administration Cease Trade Purchase (“MCTO“) pending the release of the Filings. If an MCTO is issued, Sundial intends to fulfill the provisions of the “option data tips” set out in NP 12-203, like the necessity to file bi-weekly standing reports in the form of information releases containing approved updating info, right until the Filings are created. An MCTO would not typically have an impact on the ability of people who are not directors, officers, or insiders of the Business to trade in securities of the Organization.
Sundial’s blackout coverage has restricted trading by administrators, officers, and other insiders of the Company for the total calendar calendar year hence much. The policy has also limited the Company’s skill to execute the repurchase of Sundial shares below its earlier announced share repurchase strategy. The Enterprise expects the investing window to open up subsequent to the filing of initially quarter monetary outcomes in Might.
