Tilray shows promise despite losses
Cannabis producer Tilray reported net losses for both its latest fiscal quarter and year.
The company’s net loss for its fourth fiscal quarter came in at US$457.8 million, which includes a US$395 million non-cash impairment hit that mainly impacted “inventory, goodwill and other intangible assets.”
Tilray’s net loss for its entire 2022 fiscal period was US$434 million.
However, the producer beat analysts’ expectations with upticks in revenue for both the fiscal quarter and year; these numbers came in at US$153.3 million and US$628.4 million, respectively.
“We are confident that our proactive steps to plan for the evolution of the cannabis business in each of our markets has positioned Tilray Brands to be at the forefront of the industry on a global basis while delivering profitability and driving shareholder value,” Irwin Simon, chairman and CEO of Tilray, said.
The executive highlighted cost-savings measures put in place by Tilray to reach a healthier balance sheet.
Shares of the company reflected the optimism Simon demonstrated in his statement. The day Tilray released its financial results, the company closed 11.66 percent higher for a price of US$3.65.
Despite those recent gains, Tilray, along with the rest of the leading Canadian cannabis stocks, has struggled on the open market all year. Over a year-to-date period, Tilray is down in value by approximately 50 percent.
