Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Highlights
-- Consolidated net revenue in Q3 FY2026 was $75M, flat compared to the
three months ended December 31, 2024 ("Q3 FY2025").
-- Cannabis net revenue in Q3 FY2026 was $52M, representing an
increase of 4% compared to Q3 FY2025.
-- Canada medical cannabis net revenue in Q3 FY2026 was $23M,
representing an increase of 15% compared to Q3 FY2025
driven by an increase in the number of insured patients and
increased order sizes.
-- Canada adult-use cannabis net revenue in Q3 FY2026 was
$23M, representing an increase of 8% compared to Q3 FY2025.
The increase was primarily attributable to growth in
infused pre-roll joints ("PRJ") and new All--In--One
("AIO") vapes from Tweed and 7ACRES as well as new
Claybourne AIO vapes launched in Q3 FY2026, partially
offset by declines in edibles and non-infused PRJs.
-- International markets cannabis net revenue in Q3 FY2026
decreased 31% compared to Q3 FY2025. The year-over-year
decrease is primarily attributable to supply chain
challenges in Europe. International markets cannabis net
revenue increased sequentially by 22% compared to the three
months ended September 30, 2025 ("Q2 FY2026") as shipments
into Europe, which began to improve in the second half of
Q3 FY2026, benefited from efforts to retool elements of the
European supply chain to reduce process bottlenecks.
-- Storz & Bickel net revenue in Q3 FY2026 was $23M, representing
an increase of 45% sequentially compared to Q2 FY2026. Growth was
primarily attributable to traditionally strong seasonal sales and
the first full quarter of sales of the new VEAZYTM vaporizer.
Compared to Q3 FY2025, Storz & Bickel net revenue decreased 9%,
primarily attributable to lapping strong sales and continued
consumer economic uncertainty.
-- Consolidated gross margin in Q3 FY2026 was 29%, representing a decrease
of 300 basis points compared to Q3 FY2025.
-- Cannabis gross margin was 25% in Q3 FY2026 as compared to 28% in
Q3 FY2025. The year-over-year decrease in the gross margin
percentage was primarily attributable to lower sales relating to
international markets cannabis and change in sales mix.
-- Storz & Bickel gross margin in Q3 FY2026 was 37%, compared to
40% in Q3 FY2025. Gross margin in Q3 FY2026 was lower due to lower
sales and increased tariffs on imports into the United States.
-- Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased 7%
year-over-year in Q3 FY2026 compared to Q3 FY2025. Excluding the impact
of acquisition, divestiture, and other costs, which includes litigation
costs and recoveries associated with previously divested businesses, SG&A
expenses decreased 12% year-over-year in Q3 FY2026 compared to Q3 FY2025,
driven primarily by reductions in headcount and lower third-party costs.
-- Since March 1, 2025, the Company has captured $29M of annualized
savings and continues to look for additional efficiencies.
-- Net loss in Q3 FY2026 narrowed by 49% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA1
loss in Q3 FY2026 narrowed 17% to $3M compared to Q3 FY2025, representing
the third consecutive quarter of improvement, primarily attributable to
SG&A cost savings.
-- Free cash outflow2 improved year-over-year, from $28M in Q3 FY2025 to
$19M in Q3 FY2026.
Business Highlights
-- The Company continues to focus its Canada adult-use business on
execution and high margin product segments. Strong consumer demand for
Claybourne infused PRJs and Gassers AIO vapes supported performance
during Q3 FY2026.
-- The Company continues to strengthen engagement with cannabis retailers
in Canada. Partnerships with provincial retailers have expanded product
assortments which has significantly increased sales velocity. In addition,
robust product offerings drove improved distribution with independent
retailers nationwide.
-- The Company's Canada medical cannabis segment continued to deliver
strong performance, supported by focus on delivering a high quality,
reliable patient experience, particularly among insured patients,
consistent product availability and disciplined execution.
-- Improved product supply into international markets led to sequential
growth in Q3 FY2026 compared to Q2 FY2026.
-- Storz & Bickel benefited from strong seasonal demand and continued
momentum from VEAZY during Q3 FY2026. Online Black Friday sales increased
16% year-over-year, and VEAZY became the Company's best-selling device
with the fastest ramp to 20,000 units sold of any of Storz & Bickel's
historical device launches.

Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure used by management that is not defined by U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure for investors because it provides meaningful and useful financial information, as this measure demonstrates the operating performance of businesses. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as the reported net income (loss), adjusted to exclude income tax recovery (expense); other income (expense), net; loss on equity method investments; share-based compensation expense; depreciation and amortization expense; asset impairment and restructuring costs; restructuring costs recorded in cost of goods sold; and charges related to the flow-through of inventory step-up on business combinations, and further adjusted to remove acquisition, divestiture, and other costs. Asset impairments related to periodic changes to the Company's supply chain processes are not excluded from Adjusted EBITDA given their occurrence through the normal course of core operational activities. Accordingly, management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful and useful financial information as this measure demonstrates the operating performance of businesses. The Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation is presented within this press release and explained in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2025 (the "Form 10-Q") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure used by management that is not defined by U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Management believes that free cash flow presents meaningful information regarding the amount of cash flow required to maintain and organically expand the Company's business, and that the free cash flow measure provides meaningful information regarding the Company's liquidity requirements. This measure is calculated as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less purchases of and deposits on property, plant and equipment. The free cash flow reconciliation is presented within this press release and explained in the Form 10-Q filed with the SEC.
