Analysis · HITI · Trade & Services
High Tide pre-announced preliminary Q3 2026 results that beat analyst expectations across all key metrics — revenue, gross profit, and Adjusted EBITDA — with the low end of guidance exceeding the highest Street estimate. The company also disclosed a record 10 tonnes of medical cannabis distributed through its German subsidiary, up 33% sequentially, and a return to positive same-store sales in Canada. This signals accelerating operating momentum and suggests the market has not yet priced in the strength of the business. The guidance comes ahead of full results on September 14, 2026, and reinforces the earnings power of the company's dual Canadian retail and German medical cannabis engines.
