cbdMD Announces Adjournment of Special Meeting

Scheduled to Reconvene October 26, 2023, 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time)

Charlotte, NC, September 22, 2023 - cbdMD, Inc. (NYSE American: YCBD, YCBD-pa) announced that its Special Meeting of Shareholders that convened on September 22, 2023 has been adjourned until October 26, 2023 at 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) to solicit additional proxies for its proposal to approve an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Designation for the Series A Preferred Stock to provide that each share of Series A Preferred Stock will be automatically converted into three shares of common stock. The adjourned meeting will be a completely “virtual” meeting of shareholders, and shareholders will be able to listen and participate in the virtual meeting as well as vote during the live webcast of the meeting by visiting https://agm.issuerdirect.com/ycbd and entering the control ID and Request ID number printed on the form of proxy or voting instruction form or scan the QR Code on the form of proxy to access the website and follow the instructions on the screen.

The Board of Directors believes approval of the proposal is in the best interests of cbdMD and its shareholders because the automatic conversion of the Series A Preferred into common stock, eliminating the Series A Preferred dividend, change of control, conversion rights and redemption rights significantly enhances cbdMD’s outlook and has significant benefits to both classes of our outstanding stock. The proposal is described in more detail in cbdMD’s proxy statement dated August 11, 2023, furnished to shareholders in connection with the Special Meeting filed under the Company’s EDGAR profiles, and can also be found on the Company’s website at https://www.cbdmd.com/pages/investors.

While our shareholders have approved an adjournment of the meeting, at the time of the meeting there were insufficient votes to approve the Series A Preferred amendment proposal. cbdMD encourages any shareholder that has not yet voted its shares on the proposal or is uncertain if their shares have been voted on the proposal to contact their broker or bank. The record date of the meeting shall remain August 1, 2023. Accordingly, the Board of Directors and management requests shareholders as of the record date, August 1, 2023, to please vote their proxies as soon as possible, but no later than October 25, 2023 at 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time). Shareholders who have previously submitted their proxy or otherwise voted for the proposal and who do not want to change their vote need not take any action.
