Planet 13's Q2 2026 results show meaningful operational improvement despite a 14.9% revenue decline. The net loss narrowed to $5.6 million from $13.3 million a year earlier, driven by a 10.5 percentage point gross margin expansion to 53.9% and an 18% reduction in operating expenses. The company exited California entirely, which removed a drag on profitability. Cash and restricted cash total $16.5 million, and management states it has adequate liquidity for the next 12 months. This comes just weeks after the announced all-stock acquisition by Vireo Growth at a 24% premium, making the standalone financial trajectory less critical but still relevant for assessing the deal's value.
