The Company has now expanded its licensing to an operating footprint in the U.S. that covers thirteen states with a total population of 150MM1and an addressable market of approximately $25.6B2USD in estimated 2023 cannabis sales.

As a result, the Company is pleased to announce that it grew DehydraTECH licensing revenues by 442% in Q3 FY 2023 when compared to the same period last year and 28% versus the prior quarter.

a)collected on all of its significant aged receivables;
b)completed an insider-supportedprivate placementat $3.00 per unit ($0.04adjusted for the 75:1 common share consolidation that occurred on May 30, 2023);

Note 2:As of May 31, 2023, the Company has collected over 95% of its receivables that were outstanding as at March 31, 2023.
Note 3:As part of the Company’s focused efforts on DehydraTECH expansion in the United States, Hill exited its lease of the Canadian Lucknow cannabis R&D facility in February 2023. This allowed the Company to eliminate certain overhead expenses while allocating additional resources to drive additional growth in the US.
As a result of these efforts, management expects that the Company currently has sufficient cash on hand to fund current operations for at least the next twelve months.
Matthew Jewell, CFO comments: “All of the successes discussed above are the direct result of the Hill executive team ensuring the Company is laser focused with clear objectives. We are well capitalized and in a strong position to work towards achieving our growth potential. I look forward to seeing where we can take it from here now that legacy items have been resolved and the team is fully onboarded and well positioned for continued success.”
The Company also confirms that effective May 30, 2023, its name change to Hill Incorporated and the consolidation of the Company’s shares on a 75-to-1 basis have been completed.
