High Tide Closes on $30 Million Convertible Debt from Cronos Group Inc. Français
CALGARY, AB, and TORONTO, ON, July 16, 2025 /CNW/ - High Tide Inc. ("High Tide") (Nasdaq: HITI) (TSXV: HITI) (FSE: 2LYA), the high-impact, retail-forward enterprise built to deliver real-world value across every component of cannabis, announced today that it has closed a loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with a wholly owned subsidiary of Cronos Group Inc. (Nasdaq: CRON) (TSX: CRON) to secure convertible debt with a principal amount of $30 million (the "Junior Secured Loan"). High Tide intends to use this working capital to fund future acquisitions and organic growth as it seeks to expand its business and grow its domestic store network beyond 300 locations in Canada. "Given our strong and proven business model, it's incredibly validating to receive a second vote of confidence in the form of an investment from a major licensed producer in recent months," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide. "Their support speaks volumes about the value High Tide brings to the legal cannabis ecosystem, not only as a growth-focused retailer but as a key industry player that's helping improve the operating environment for licensed producers, reduce illicit market share, and reinforce Canada's regulated framework overall. With this investment, which will serve entirely as growth capital, we're poised to accelerate our expansion both in Canada and internationally." "Our investment was driven by the belief that a competitive and equitable retail environment benefits the entire industry, including producers, retailers and adult consumers," said Mike Gorenstein, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cronos. "We remain fully committed to working with and supporting all our retail partners." Transaction Details The Junior Secured Loan is secured by a third priority lien on certain of High Tide's assets and bears interest at 4% per annum. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, Cronos may, with the agreement of High Tide, from time to time, convert the Junior Secured Loan, excluding the amounts attributed to the original issuance discount, into common shares in the capital of High Tide (the "Common Shares") at a price of $4.20 per Common Share (the Common Shares issued from such conversions, the "Conversion Shares"). The Junior Secured Loan has a 5-year term and may be repaid, in whole or in part, at any time, at High Tide's option with no penalty. Additionally, Cronos received a Common Share purchase warrant (the "Warrant"). The Warrant is exercisable into up to 3,836,317 Common Shares (the "Warrant Shares") at an exercise price of $3.91 per Warrant Share, representing a 25% premium to the 30-day volume weighted average price of High Tide shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") ending on the trading day prior to the date of this news release, for a period of five years, at Cronos' option. The TSXV has conditionally approved the listing of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares, subject to the fulfillment of the requirements of the TSXV's conditional approval.

Trump Media Files for Third Crypto ETF
Cronos, XRP and Solana have entered the chat. Trump Media filed last week with the Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a new fund, the Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF, which would primarily hold Bitcoin but also Ether, Solana, Cronos and XRP. Its fees have not been disclosed, but the crypto exchange platform is slated to act as the fund's digital custodian. The move is the latest foray by President Trump's media company into the increasingly deregulated, and saturated, world of crypto products. READ ALSO: Vanguard Expands Fixed-Income Menu with 3 Treasury ETFs and Tariff Fallout Hasn't Hit Markets Yet. Issuers Say That Could Change The filing taps into increased demand for cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin, said Bryan Armour, Morningstar's director of ETF and passive strategies research. 'As more cryptocurrencies are approved for spot ETFs generally, I think there will be more appetite and significant product development around an indexed version of multiple cryptocurrencies,' he said, 'so my guess is they'll appear in different ways.' The problem is that Solana, XRP and Cronos aren't yet available to trade as spot funds, which has slowed the launch of index-type crypto ETFs, Armour said. That leaves little room for Trump Media's other two ETFs to differentiate themselves from existing funds. It's only a matter of time until the SEC's approval of additional currencies opens the door for new players, however. 'It's a more level playing field because they'll be starting alongside other asset managers and there's potential to differentiate,' Armour said. '[Cronos] has a significant overweight, but that might appeal to some investors to get that type of mix.' Trump Media, which operates Trump's Truth Social platform, has now filed for three strategies with the SEC: The Truth Social Crypto Blue Chip ETF would have 70% of its assets allocated to Bitcoin, with 15%, 8%, 5% and 2% going to Ether, Solana, Cronos and XRP, respectively. The Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF would have 75% of its assets allocated to Bitcoin and 25% to Ether. The Truth Social Bitcoin ETF would be a spot Bitcoin ETF, aiming to serve as a Bitcoin reserve for the US government. The Blue Chip version will allocate about 5% of its holdings to Cronos — a currency developed by an affiliate of the fund's custodian, Foris DAX Trust Company. That's of particular note, Armour said, because the product should have a 1% allocation based on market cap. Name Brand? The main force behind Trump Media's crypto ETFs at present is the Trump name itself, which may not be enough, said Roxanna Islam, head of sector and industry research at VettaFi. 'They do appeal more to Trump fans or people that are anti-mainstream financial issuers. But that can only go so far,' she said, adding that fees will also play a role. 'Will they even remotely catch up? It's hard to say, because they're over a year behind.' This post first appeared on The Daily Upside.

Cronos Jumps 18% After Trump Media ETF Proposal Lists Token Among Holdings
Cronos (CRO), the native token of the blockchain, surged nearly 18% to $0.095 Wednesday following news that it could be included in a new exchange-traded fund (ETF) backed by Trump Media & Technology Group. The proposed ETF, which is awaiting approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, would track a basket of five cryptocurrencies: bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), solana (SOL), XRP (XRP) and cronos (CRO). If approved, CRO would make up 5% of the fund's weighting—its smallest component, but still a notable addition for a token that's rarely featured in major institutional products. That news sent CRO soaring from about $0.08 Tuesday morning, outpacing the broader crypto market. The CoinDesk 20 Index, which tracks the top digital assets, rose just 2.8% over the same period. While the bump is significant, CRO remains a shadow of its former self. The token peaked at $0.69 in November 2021 during the last bull market. It saw a short-lived revival in December 2024, rising to $0.21 amid a market rally that followed Donald Trump's election to a second term. That rally, however, faded fast. The ETF development has brought new attention to CRO, a token that powers ecosystem including its exchange and payments app. Still, the token has a long climb to reach its former highs. Traders appear to be reacting to the possibility of increased institutional exposure, but the SEC has yet to approve the fund.
