Organigram Recognized for Executive Gender Diversity by the Globe & Mail’s Women Lead Here Report for the Fourth Consecutive Year

Organigram Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), (the “Company” or “Organigram”), a leading licensed producer of cannabis, is pleased to announce it has been recognized on the 2024 Report on Business ‘Women Lead Here’ list for gender diversity. Fifty percent of the Company’s executive leadership team, including its CEO, are women.

The Women Lead Here benchmark was established in 2020 and applies a proprietary research methodology to provide an overview of the largest Canadian corporations with the highest degree of gender diversity among executive ranks. The ranked companies have made tangible and organizational progress related to executive gender parity.

“We are thrilled to be recognized yet again by the Globe & Mail for the gender diversity within our leadership team. Organigram is one of the very few companies in the cannabis industry that has a significant female leadership presence within its executive team and on its Board of Directors. Of note, our Legal and Manufacturing departments are led by women, demonstrating our commitment to breaking traditional gender stereotypes in leadership roles,” said Beena Goldenberg, CEO of Organigram. “At our company, we advocate for inclusivity, flexibility, and equality in the corporate landscape. With women constituting over 46% of our talented workforce, we prioritize inclusive recruitment strategies and provide equitable opportunities for professional advancement across the Company.”

For the 2024 ranking, Report on Business conducted a journalistic analysis of approximately 500 large publicly traded Canadian companies based on revenue, evaluating the ratio of female-identifying to male-identifying executives in the top three tiers of executive leadership. The resultant data was applied to a weighted formula that also factored in company performance, diversity and year-to-year change.
