CALGARY, AB, Dec. 22, 2025 /CNW/ - High Tide Inc. ("High Tide" or the "Company") (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 the Company will be participating in the ICR Conference in Orlando, Florida, hosting two days of meetings with institutional investors. Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide, will participate in a fireside chat moderated by Bill Kirk, Managing Director, Senior Research Analyst at ROTH Capital Partners, that is scheduled to begin at 8:00 a.m. EST on Tuesday, January 13, 2026.

"Being invited to participate in the ICR Conference is a meaningful validation of High Tide's business and strategy. ICR is a highly selective, invitation-only forum that brings together leading consumer and retail companies with some of the world's most sophisticated institutional investors. Our inclusion reflects that High Tide is increasingly being recognized not simply as a cannabis company, but as a leading, scaled retail platform with strong underlying fundamentals," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide.

"We are entering 2026 with strong momentum following a record-setting 2025, and the ICR Conference represents the first of several major investor conferences we expect to participate in this year. Engaging with large institutional investors at forums like ICR allows us to highlight the strength of our retail model, disciplined execution, and long-term growth opportunity," added Mr. Grover.
