Revenue growth largely comes from Canadian recreational net revenue, which saw the overall sales figure rise from $44.2 million to $60.9 million over the three month period.

Cost of goods sold meanwhile came in at $109.2 million, providing the company with a gross margin of $26.0 million. This still was not enough to cover operating expenses however, which came in at $310.3 million this quarter. This was largely comprised of selling, general and administrative expenses of $147.3 million, but also included asset impairment charges of $46.4 million and expected credit losses on financial assets and related charges of $94.7 million.
