SHARE CAPITAL |
10. SHARE CAPITAL
Subordinate Voting Shares and Proportionate Voting Shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity. The proceeds from the exercise of stock options or warrants together with amounts previously recorded in reserves over the vesting periods are recorded as share capital. Income tax relating to transaction costs of an equity transaction is accounted for in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. (a)Issued and Outstanding As of December 31, 2024, the Company had 358,747,290 Subordinate Voting Shares issued and outstanding and no Proportionate Voting Shares outstanding. The Company has the following two classes of share capital, with each class having no par value: (i)Subordinate Voting Shares The holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares are entitled to receive dividends issued by the Company and one vote per share at shareholder meetings of the Company. All Subordinate Voting Shares are ranked equally regarding the Company’s residual assets. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Subordinate Voting Shares. (ii)Proportionate Voting Shares Each Proportionate Voting Share is convertible into 100 Subordinate Voting Shares. The holders of the Proportionate Voting Share are entitled to receive dividends issued by the Company on an as converted to Subordinate Voting Share basis and 100 votes per share at shareholder meetings of the Company. The Proportionate Voting Shares are ranked equally on an as converted to Subordinate Voting Share basis regarding the Company's residual assets. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Proportionate Voting Shares. During the year ended December 31, 2023, certain shareholders of the Company converted Proportionate Voting Shares to Subordinate Voting Shares for an impact of conversion of 449 Proportionate Voting Shares into 44,997 Subordinate Voting Shares. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company exercised its right to convert the 133,373 remaining outstanding Proportionate Voting Shares into 13,337,286 Subordinate Voting Shares, resulting in no Proportionate Voting Shares being outstanding as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. (b)Stock-Based Compensation In February 2021, the Company established the Verano Holdings Corp. Stock and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which provides for stock-based remuneration for its eligible directors, officers, employees, consultants, and advisors. The maximum number of RSUs, options and other stock based awards that may be issued under the Plan cannot exceed 10% of the Company’s then issued and outstanding share capital, determined on an as converted to Subordinate Voting Shares basis. All goods and services received in exchange for the grant of any stock-based payments are measured at their fair value unless the fair value cannot be estimated reliably. If the Company cannot reliably estimate the fair value of the goods and services received, the Company measures their value indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. Equity-settled stock-based payments under stock-based payment plans are ultimately recognized as an expense in profit or loss with a corresponding credit to equity. The Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of shares expected to vest differs from the previous estimate. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period with no adjustment to prior periods for expense previously recognized.
