Planet 13 beat Canaccord’s $30.3 million revenue estimate, which was driven by better average spend per customer, while the reopening of the Medizin dispensary and increased wholesale sales also contributed to the revenue beat. For adjusted EBITDA, the company beat Canaccord’s $6.8 million estimate but came in slightly below the street estimate.
Canaccord says that Planet 13 now has 11.1% of Nevada’s market as the company’s HaHa brand was #2 for edibles and #3 for beverages in the state, but warns that COVID headwinds are expected to continue to impact the market. Although tourism in Nevada has started to grow as the heavy restrictions are being lifted, mask mandates being re-introduced are expected to cut into this.
Due to the uncertainty, Canaccord has lowered their third quarter, full year 2021, and 2022 estimates slightly. They now expect revenues to come in at $36.4 million, $129.8 million, and $172.1 million respectively, while EBITDA estimates have been lowered to $6.6 million, $26.1 million, and $47.8 million respectively.
