Insights

Green Thumb adds $50M in pari passu term debt.

Green Thumb Industries Inc., via subsidiary GTI23, Inc., has amended its existing credit agreement to take on an additional $50 million of term loans. These new loans rank pari passu with, and follow identical terms to, the existing Closing Date Term Loans, according to the amendment.

The proceeds are earmarked for transaction-related costs, potential strategic investments, and general working capital. This indicates a mix of growth-oriented and operational uses rather than a single distressed or refinancing purpose, based solely on the described intent.

The amendment is dated February 19, 2026, and the original credit agreement dates to September 11, 2024. Subsequent company filings and the attached press release may provide additional detail on leverage levels, covenants, and how these obligations interact with broader financing plans.
