Zenabis, Sundial and Ernst & Young

Zenabis, Sundial and Ernst & YoungThe Sundial debt discussed below, I've posted about it several times - it relates to the 'Restricted Cash' that some of you pumptards think will be free spending cash with the Tilray deal.

In fact those restricted funds are not spending pocket money - over $50 million was to cover the debt owed to Sundial, $35 million relates to Liability Insurance (to protect Board and managment in case of lawsuits) and more.

That restricted cash for Sundial came from the High Trail financing - and it was a condition of that funding from High Trail that the Sundial debt be restricted.

The Deep Dive article suggests that $50 million from High Trail has 'fallen through' - maybe Tilray said they weren't interested in owing Sundial the money and wouldnt include it in their own announced takeover of debt? Makes sense - that leaves Sundial to take otehr actions to recover the debt.

Anyway - looks like Sundial will end up with Zenabis faciltiies for cheap instead, Langley was (and still is) leased, so that leaves either Atholville or Stellarton (probably Atholville as it's already shut down?).

That's my guess, but of course - we're all eagerly waiting for queertard  to share whatever confidential information he (and only he) receives from Hexo IR - becaue after all, he thinks he's 'special'.

Again though - pretty sure Hexo will be refering inquires to Ernst & Young, Hexo no longer has much of a say in such a bankruptcy proceeding
 

 





Hexo Corp Sees Zenabis Subsidiary File For CCAA Protection Due To Sundial Growers Debt

If you thought Hexo Corp (TSX: HEXO) was a mess before, buckle up as it appears things are about to get a whole lot worse.

Zenabis Global, the Canadian cannabis operator that Hexo acquired just thirteen months ago, has evidently filed for protection under the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act, or the CCAA as it is commonly referred to. The subsidiary has filed for such protection as it looks to “restructure their business and financial affairs.”

The company listed three reasons for the cause of the filing, which include:

  • Margin pressures within the cannabis industry,
  • Operational and financial underperformance, and
  • Pressures from obligations owing to creditors.

In making the filing, the company addressed that it has significant unsecured and senior secured debt, which it is no longer capable of paying off. As a result, the firm is seeking a stay of creditor claims so as to give the firm time to find potential purchasers of its assets.

As part of the process, the firm has entered into an agreement for purchase and sale with a subsidiary of Sundial Growers (NASDAQ: SNDL). A sale and investment solicitation process is to be undertaken by Ernst & Young, whom is serving as monitor for the proceedings. The process is to use the offer from Sundial as the stalking horse bid under the process.

Hexo completed the purchase of Zenabis on June 1 of last year, in an all-stock deal initially valued at $235 million at the time of announcement. Weeks before that deal was announced, the firm had entered a secured debt deal with Sundial, after which Sundial attempted to secure assets due to a default on the debt. Although it was announced that Zenabis had secured a $60 million loan to pay off that debt, based on the CCAA filing and its references to Sundial being a secured creditor, that loan appears to have fallen through.

The petition is said to be exclusively related to Zenabis Group, and is not expected to impact Hexo’s other operations.

The development follows Hexo earlier this week cancelling guidance as a result of its poor performance within the cannabis industry as of late.

Hexo Corp last traded at $0.265 on the TSX.
