Hexo reported an increase in total assets for the period ended July 31, 2019, with an increase from $266.51 million to that of $314.55 million. The increase was primarily driven by inventory build, which increased from $36.77 million to that of $86.27. Cash decreased during the period to $113.56 million from $173.09 million in the prior quarter.

In terms of cannabis itself, the firm sold 4,009 kilograms of recreational cannabis and cannabis equivalents during the quarter, a 45% increase from the prior quarter’s 2,759 kilograms. Cumulatively, the firm sold 4,818 kilograms of cannabis in the quarter when including medical and wholesale sales.

While the total amount of cannabis sold increased significantly, the average selling price decreased on a per gram basis.

The fourth quarter also saw the only wholesale cannabis sold during the fiscal year, at a rock-bottom average price of $0.56 per gram.

Notably, Hexo was also subjected to an impairment loss on inventory of $16.91 million, as a result of price compression being exhibited within the sector.
