Insurance

Insurance expense for the three months ended August 31, 2021 increased to $1,446 compared to $355 in the same period of fiscal 2020. The increase is a result of increased costs in D&O coverage due to the newly completed entry into the United States market and the NASDAQ application process. In addition, the development of the K2, Pommies, LYF, and Green Roads facilities requires additional coverage and higher limits plus additional product insurance.

The reduction in adjusted EBITDA can be attributed to the Company's strategic transition (as discussed above) and insurance costs related to Valens application to list on the Nasdaq.
