All 4Front Subsidiaries File for Court-Appointed Receiver
PHOENIX, May 23, 2025 /CNW/ - 4Front Ventures Corp. ("4Front" or the "Company") (CSE: FFNT; OTCQB: FFNTF), a vertically integrated cannabis operator, announces that all its United States subsidiaries filed for a voluntary receivership in aid of liquidation under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on May 22, 2025. The Company anticipates that its subsidiaries will be placed into receivership in the Superior Court for Suffolk County, Business Litigation Division. The Company intends to continue operating during the receivership process and hopes the process will generate value for stakeholders through the sale of assets of its subsidiaries in one or more transactions.
"The 4Front Board made this decision only as a last resort," said Chairman of the Board Kris Krane. "While we believe 4Front's cultivation and manufacturing operations are standouts and its retail stores have found exciting new ways to engage consumers, the liabilities on the Company's balance sheet coupled with a lack of available financing for operations have forced us to file for a voluntary receivership in order to pursue an orderly sale of the Company's businesses."
"The 4Front Board gave careful consideration to the duties owed to all stakeholders, and in the absence of other available alternatives, determined that it was in the best interests of the Company and its stakeholders to voluntarily request a receivership and court protection."
Further information regarding the proceedings may be obtained from the receiver once appointed. Foley Hoag LLP is serving as legal counsel to the Company.
The Company previously announced that, as a result of its failure to file its audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and related management discussion and certifications, the Ontario Securities Commission had issued a failure-to-file cease trade order generally prohibiting its common stock from being traded in Canada. Due to that filing deficiency and the receivership petition, it is anticipated that the Company ultimately will be delisted from both the Canadian Securities Exchange and the OTCQB.

Sturm Ruger CEO sees 2025 bottom line impacted by price repositioning moves
On June 13, Sturm, Ruger & Company provided a communication from Todd Seyfert, CEO, to its employees regarding his first 100 days and management's ongoing corporate strategy initiatives, the company disclosed in a regulatory filing. In the letter to employees, Seyfert stated in part: 'The last few months have been nothing short of transformative – and it's thanks to your focus, dedication, and belief in what we're building. As I have been doing since my first days as CEO, I wanted to update you all transparently and clearly about where I see our short-term and long-term future… With these bold moves, there comes a cost – both emotionally and financially. Change of this scale requires tough decisions, meaningful investment, and short-term impacts that we've chosen to take head-on to position Ruger for long-term strength… It is important to note that we are making these strategic decisions now – thoughtfully and intentionally – so that Ruger is positioned for consistency, stability, and profitable growth in 2026 and beyond. Yet, there will be a cost to the Company for 2025. We expect the expense-related to these initiatives to total approximately $15 million to $20 million over the remainder of the year. We additionally anticipate our price repositioning moves to impact our overall bottom line over that same period. Consequently, we currently believe that our results for the remainder of the year, before the one-time costs and expenses, will look more like prior periods, such as the latter part of 2019, where the Company continued to focus on executing its long-term strategy and delivering long-term value for shareholders in the face of broader industry challenges. These actions will be largely completed by the beginning of 2026, placing Ruger in a strong position for renewed growth and performance in the years to come. Importantly, none of this will slow our momentum when it comes to investing in what matters most, including aggressive new product development and expansion of capacity in areas where market demand exceeds our current ability to supply. We remain fully committed to profitable expansion, product innovation, agile responsiveness, and ensuring we meet the expectations of our customers and the marketplace.'
