The Case For Change

Pending Insolvency

MediPharm is burning cash. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has just $8.4 million in cash, down from $11.7 million at year-end 2024 and $24.1 million at the beginning of 2023. At the current burn rate, MediPharm will become insolvent before the end of the year. Shareholders must act to stop the bleeding before it’s too late.

Misaligned Incentives and Excessive Compensation

Despite this abysmal performance, the management team has continued to be rewarded excessively. CEO David Pidduck has taken millions of dollars in cash and stock out of the Company in recent years. Shockingly, Pidduck has become MediPharm's largest shareholder by being incentivized to dilute all shareholders. His stock grants are based on dollars and, therefore, the lower the share price falls, the more shares he is issued.

Persistent Operating Losses

Despite repeated claims of a “path to profitability,” MediPharm’s financial results continue to deteriorate. The Company has incurred Over $58 Million In Operating Losses over the past three years. In 2023 alone, MediPharm generated $45 million in revenue, yet still managed to lose $10 million. This level of underperformance, in what is now a mature market and under long-standing leadership, is indefensible. Shareholders deserve better than empty promises and worsening results.

Value Destruction Under Current Leadership

Under the leadership of Chairman Chris Taves and CEO David Pidduck, MediPharm’s stock price has plummeted by more than 99%, costing shareholders nearly $1 billion. While cannabis valuations have declined industry-wide, MediPharm has dramatically underperformed even its struggling peers.

Shareholders Diluted

As the board issues shares and sells assets to pay for their failures, shareholders are losing value. Over the last three years, the common shares outstanding increased from 282 million to 415 million, representing total dilution of 47%.

Poor Strategy Execution and Capital Allocation

MediPharm’s consistent value destruction stems from a leadership team that lacks both vision and discipline. The Company has failed to execute a coherent strategy, allowing its core Canadian business to deteriorate while missing major international growth opportunities in markets like Germany and the U.K. Meanwhile, capital allocation decisions have been careless and dilutive. A prime example is the Vivo acquisition, in which MediPharm gave up 33% of its equity, only to later sell off the acquired assets and redirect the proceeds in ways that appeared to benefit insiders rather than shareholders.
