Aphria Reports Net Revenues of $152.2 Million, Loss of $98.8 Million in Fourth Quarter 2020

Aphria Inc (TSX: APHA) (NASDAQ: APHA) reported its fourth quarter and full fiscal year financial results for the period ended May 31, 2020 this morning. The company reported net revenues of $152.2 million, of which $53.1 million was attributed to cannabis revenues, while reporting a net loss of $98.8 million for the quarter. Full fiscal year net revenues shook out to $543.3 million, with a net loss of $84.6 million.

Gross profit for the quarter was a reported $47.3 million, before fair value adjustments. Expenses however amounted to a total of $116.6 million for the three month period, thanks in part to $64.0 million in writedowns for the firm, as well as $27.7 million in general and administrative expenses.

Impairments taken during the quarter include:

  • $4.8 million on CannInvest Africa and Verve Dynamics Incorporated
  • $5.0 million on ABP, S.A.
  • $19.2 million on Marigold Projects Jamaica
  • $35.0 million on ColCanna S.A.S

In total, the writedowns amounted to a decreases of $52.0 million in goodwill, $6.6 million in capital assets, and $19.3 million in intangible assets, which was offset slightly by $5.1 million of net liabilities and $8.7 million as the NCI portion of the impairment. The justification for impairments was entirely blamed on that of COVID-19.

Outside of impairments, the other issue reported during the quarter appears to be the disparity between cannabis produced and cannabis sold by Aphria. The company sold a total of 12,556.5 kilograms of cannabis during the three month period – despite producing a record 52,242.6 kilograms, more than 4x the amount of product it sold. Despite this, the company still purchased at least 1,723 kilograms of cannabis during the quarter.
