Second Quarter 2026
- Net revenue of
$53.0 million in Q2 2026 increased by$19.6 million from Q2 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher cannabis flower sales inIsrael and other countries, specificallyGermany , which carry no excise taxes, and higher cannabis flower and extract sales in the Canadian market. In addition, net revenue for the current period benefited from the strengthening of the New Israeli Shekel versus theU.S . dollar. - Gross profit of
$28.5 million in Q2 2026 increased by$13.9 million from Q2 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher average sales prices, largely driven by a mix shift toIsrael and other countries, which carry no excise taxes, and higher sales volumes. Higher sales volumes led to higher net revenue and efficiencies as fixed overhead costs were spread over greater volumes. - Net income was
$35.7 million in Q2 2026, compared to a net loss of$38.5 million in Q2 2025. The improvement was primarily due to higher gross profit and other income, largely driven by foreign currency transaction gains, partially offset by higher operating expenses. - Adjusted EBITDA of
$13.1 million in Q2 2026 improved by$11.4 million from Q2 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by higher gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses due to higher sales and marketing, general and administrative, and research and development (“R&D”) costs.

Adjusted EBITDA
Management reviews Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, which excludes non-cash items and items that do not reflect management’s assessment of ongoing business performance. Management defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization adjusted for: share of (income) loss from equity method investments; impairment loss on goodwill and intangible assets; impairment loss on long-lived assets; (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative liabilities; (gain) loss on revaluation of financial instruments; gain on revaluation of loan receivable; gain on revaluation of equity method investment; transaction costs related to strategic projects; loss on held-for-sale assets; impairment loss on other investments; foreign currency transaction (gain) loss; other, net; loss from discontinued operations; change in allowance for credit loss on non-operating loan; restructuring costs; inventory write-downs resulting from restructuring actions; share-based compensation; costs related to the
Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful insight into underlying business trends and results and facilitates comparison of period-over-period results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets.
Beginning in 2025, the Company modified the composition of Adjusted EBITDA to exclude the impact of the provision for expected credit losses recognized under ASC 326 solely with respect to the High Tide Loan (see Note 4 “Loans Receivable, net” to the condensed consolidated financial statements under Item 1 of our Quarterly Report for further information). Management determined that excluding this non-cash provision provides investors with additional insight into period-over-period operating performance by isolating credit-risk movements unrelated to the Company’s core operations.
Management believes that this change provides additional information regarding the Company’s ongoing operational results and enhances comparability with peers that do not routinely extend credit to third parties. This change does not affect the Company’s GAAP financial statements.
