• Q2 Revenue Up 5% to $307M

  Revenue reached $306.7 million, driven by retail growth in Minnesota and wholesale gains, but comparable sales fell 1.1% on a base of 103 stores.

• Gross Margin Compressed to 45%

  Gross profit was $137.9 million (45.0% of revenue), down from 49.9% a year ago, primarily due to $15.8 million in RYTHM brand licensing fees and price compression.

• Net Income Swings to $4.9M Profit

  GAAP net income was $4.9 million ($0.02/share) versus a $0.6 million loss last year, helped by lower income tax expense after cannabis rescheduling to Schedule III.

• Aggressive Share Buybacks Continue

  Repurchased 7.9 million Subordinate Voting Shares for $48.3 million at an average price of $6.11; $62.3 million remains under the buyback authorization through September 22, 2026.

Revenue grew 5% to $307 million, yet gross margin contracted to 45% from 50% a year ago, weighed down by RYTHM brand licensing fees and price compression. Net income swung to a modest $4.9 million profit from a small loss last year, aided by lower taxes following cannabis rescheduling. The company bought back 7.9 million shares for $48 million, signaling confidence, but the real story lies in margin erosion and rising SG&A costs — they reveal the price of retaining talent and paying for brand rights in a competitive market. With $284 million in cash and $283 million in debt, the balance sheet is solid, but investors will watch whether margin pressure persists.
