Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On July 22, 2024 , GrowGeneration Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing certain preliminary financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On July 22, 2024 , the Company announced a strategic restructuring plan focused on long-term profitability and advancing growth initiatives in key areas of its Gardening and Cultivation segment such as its proprietary brands, commercial sales, and e-commerce business. These restructuring plans primarily include reductions in cost structure by closing and consolidating twelve redundant or underperforming retail locations, in addition to the seven retail locations closed in the first half of 2024, workforce reductions, and other operational improvements. The Company expects that the restructuring activities will be substantially completed by the end of fiscal year 2024 and that these strategic restructuring activities will improve profitability and generate annualized cost savings of approximately $12.0 million.
The Company is unable to make a good faith determination of an estimate or range of estimates for any additional charges that it will incur in connection with the broader restructuring plan, required by paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of Item 2.05 of Form 8-K, including charges related to the consolidation or elimination of real estate leases. The Company will file an amendment to this report after it makes a determination of such estimates or range of estimates, if any. The Company intends to exclude the charges associated with the restructuring plan from its non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA.
