CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K and other reports filed by us from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, our management as well as estimates and assumptions made by our management. When used in the filings the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “future”, “intend”, “plan” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to us or our management identify forward looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of our management with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this report entitled “Risk Factors”) as they relate to our industry, our operations and results of operations, and any businesses that we may acquire. Should one or more of the events described in these risk factors materialize, or should our underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the U.S. federal securities laws, we do not intend to update any of the forward- looking statements to conform them to actual results. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our pro forma financial statements and the related notes that will be filed herein.

 

Item 8.01 Other Events

 

Evergreen Sustainable Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Evergreen” or the “Company” and f/k/a Generation Hemp, Inc.) made the decision late last year in 2023 to completely exit its business activities within the hemp space. This decision was made after witnessing many midstream companies and extractors exiting the business, predominantly because of uneconomic prices and a lack of raw hemp supply from farmers. In Kentucky, the location of our former operations, which relied on harvested hemp acreage from farmers, growing licenses dropped from 978 in 2019 to 170 in 2023 to 137 in 2024. As one of the last of the hemp processing midstream companies to remain in business, the Company made the difficult decision to completely shut down its operations, dispose of its remaining assets associated with this business, and reduce overall headcount for those employees specifically involved in this industry. Hence, with the company’s complete change in direction and business activities, a name change was completed that exemplifies our new industry.
