Green Growth Brands Inc., GGB Canada Inc., Green Growth Brands Realty Ltd. and Xanthic Biopharma Limited (collectively, the "GGB Group") (GGB:CNX), a cannabis enterprise that is licensed to grow, process and sell cannabis in various US jurisdictions, obtained protection under the CCAA on May 20, listing over $100.0 million (USD) in liabilities. The GGB Group, which was funded through equity and debt, has always been cash flow negative. Commencing in early 2019, the Group began to experience liquidity issues. These problems were compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the GGB Group was forced to indefinitely suspend its business selling CBD-infused consumer products. All Js Greenspace, one of GGB Group's existing secured lenders, will be providing up to $7.2 million (USD) in DIP funding during these CCAA proceedings. EY was appointed monitor. Counsel is Stikeman Elliott for the companies, Osler for the monitor, and McMillan for All Js Greenspace.
