Schuler recently joined Cresco Labs while preparing to take the role of Chief Financial Officer upon Olis’s departure. Schuler brings an extensive corporate finance background in publicly traded wholesalers and retailers, most recently as an executive leadership team member at BJ’s Wholesale Club, a membership warehouse club spanning 244 clubs and 178 gas stations, across 20 states with $20 billion in annual revenue.

“Dennis has been CFO for Cresco Labs during a period of tremendous growth, profitability improvement and companywide maturation,” said Charlie Bachtell, CEO of Cresco Labs. “He has been instrumental in laying the foundation of Cresco Labs, helping us build the capabilities and the financial position that will support stability and growth for years to come.”

“It has been an honor to be entrusted with guiding the financial strategy of Cresco Labs through such transformative years," said Dennis Olis, Chief Financial Officer. “The Company is only getting stronger and more valuable, and I have great confidence that Sharon is the right person to lead this next chapter. I look forward to integrating her into the organization and industry in the months ahead to ensure her success when we officially transition the CFO responsibilities later this year.”

Olis has served as Cresco Labs CFO since July 2020. During his tenure, Cresco Labs grew from $125 million in annual revenue to more than $735 million1 today. The Company also saw significant profitability improvements with Adjusted EBITDA margin improving by 2,900 basis points and annual operating cashflow improving by over $100 million annually2. He successfully prepared the Company for future U.S. listings through conversion to US GAAP and SOX compliance readiness.

“We are pleased to welcome Sharon,” said Bachtell. “Her extensive experience in executive leadership roles for both private and public companies focused on strategy, operations, and financial planning is a strong fit for Cresco Labs. She has a proven track record of using her deep knowledge and experience in the retail sector to create and implement strategic initiatives that have resulted in meaningful market share and efficiency gains. I look forward to working with her to drive Cresco Labs’ next phase of growth.”

“I am excited to join Cresco Labs at such a transformational time for both the organization and this industry,” said Sharon Schuler. “I look forward to the opportunity to work alongside this talented group of people and to playing a meaningful role in charting the future of this Company.”

For the last three years, Schuler was responsible for planning and analysis of BJ’s Wholesale Club’s short and long-term financial outlook. Prior to that, she spent over 20 years in senior financial management roles for large public and private national retailers including The TJX Companies, Clarks America, and Caleres. Schuler holds an MBA in Integrated Management and a bachelor’s in economics from Michigan State University.
