Grown Rogue Commences Sales in New Jersey

Grown Rogue International Inc., a craft cannabis company born from the amazing terroir of Oregon's Rogue Valley, is pleased to announce commencement of sales in New Jersey. The current approximately 8,000 sq ft of bench canopy is anticipated to consistently produce 500-600 pounds per month of craft flower. Grown Rogue is currently completing Phase II construction planning, expected to commence in Q1 2025, that is expected to increase production to more than 1,000 pounds per month of craft flower. The initial harvest contained some of the Company's most popular strains; such as Blue Runtz, Washington Apple, Pink Passion Fruit, and Jack Herer to name a few. The Company has already established a robust genetic portfolio in New Jersey with over 40 unique cultivars in production.

Management Commentary

"First, I'd like to thank everyone on the Grown Rogue team for their intense and meticulous focus the last fourteen months to get the New Jersey facility built out, operational, and most importantly getting our craft products on shelves for the great people of New Jersey! Our first few harvests are exceeding our expectations for both yield and quality as we ramp operations. We have eighths and quarters in the market currently and plan to introduce pre-rolls in Q1 2025. Seeing the initial product quality and our passionate team coalesce in our third state increases my confidence that we're executing our growth plan successfully. We see this project as a key part of the flywheel that supports future market expansion," said Obie Strickler, CEO of Grown Rogue.

"Over the past few months, we have received dozens of inquiries from dispensaries in New Jersey waiting for our flower to get through post-harvest and onto their shelves. We are extremely proud our brand has garnered so much respect before we even entered the market. I believe this is a testament to our team, our heritage, and our focus on delighting customers. We are aware New Jersey has a shortage of high-quality craft cannabis, and we are committed to providing value for New Jerseyans," continued Mr. Strickler.

"I want to personally thank all our customers, the entire Grown Rogue team, and our supportive shareholders for each doing their part to help Grown Rogue achieve our goal of becoming a nationally recognized craft cannabis company in the U.S."
