Aleafia Health Inc. (TSX: AH)(OTCQB: ALEAF)公布了截至2022年9月30日的第二财季财务业绩，营收增长21%至1440万美元，上年同期为1190万美元。Aleafia表示，品牌大麻净收入比去年增长23%，达到940万美元，高于2021年同期的760万美元，这主要是由于Divvy的成功。该股上涨了6%，最近以6美分的价格出售。Aleafia还公布了净利润。该季度盈利700万美元，而净亏损800万美元。首席执行官Tricia Symmes表示:“在过去的12个月里，我们一直在努力实现这一重要里程碑，成为首批上市的加拿大许可生产商之一，达到调整后EBITDA盈利能力，这是一项巨大的成就。”“这是一个坚持不懈地以利润为中心的管理团队实施纪律和高增长心态的结果，这有助于实现这一有意义和实质性的目标。事实上，这发生在市场动荡时期，OCS网络安全攻击，BC省关闭，我们的整个鲜花供应限制都影响了成人使用的销售，这更有力地证明了我们以Divvy为首的不断增长的品牌的力量。”2022年11月，Aleafia表示，通过开始关闭格里姆斯比温室，正在围绕其花卉供应采取进一步的成本节约措施，这意味着每年节省约410万美元的净成本，这将进一步提高未来的盈利能力。该公司表示，将于2022年11月开始停止运营，这将影响41名员工。 The company said it will be assessing alternatives and may potentially pursue selling the asset. “Over the last four quarters the Company has experienced consistent whole flower stock outs as the scale of the Grimsby greenhouse was outstripped by consumer demand for our products. We have mitigated this issue by onboarding strategic partners to supply our ongoing requirements,” said Symmes. “We want to sincerely thank our valued employees at the Grimsby greenhouse for their many contributions over the years, particularly in the launch of Divvy and transformation of our business to a branded cannabis provider.” EBITDA Aleafia noted that it achieved adjusted EBITDA profitability in the quarter, which was ahead of plan. In the second quarter, the company grew its Adjusted EBITDA by $8.9 million relative to the prior year, thereby achieving $0.1 million Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal second quarter, well in advance of its previous estimate, having extracted over $11 million in cost reductions over the last four quarters. The company said it believes it is the first Canadian LP of similar size, scale, and operational footprint to attain Adjusted EBITDA profitability on a sustainable basis. “The company has achieved Adjusted EBITDA profitability by transforming to a branded cannabis producer from a high-volume bulk wholesale producer, and we are incredibly proud of achieving $0.1 million in Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter ending September 30, 2022, compared with -$8.8 million in the same period last year.” said Matt Sale, CFO. “In focusing on products in large format categories with strong margin profiles and enacting an aggressive cost rationalization and containment culture throughout the organization, this quarter is only the beginning of the company’s long-term sustainable profitability.”
