"While we are experiencing positive momentum in our business, we were extremely disappointed by Verano's decision to wrongfully repudiate our transaction, which we previously anticipated would close during the fourth quarter,” Kingsley said. “We are unable to comment more on ongoing litigation beyond what has already been disclosed, but we reiterate that we believe this termination was unlawful and we will be seeking significant damages through the judicial process in British Columbia.”
