Jefferies says that the company saw Canadian sales continue to struggle but “there are signs for optimism,” because share losses have slowed and Tilray has seen market share gains in vapes and pre-rolls. They add, “What also needs to be remembered is that Canada adult-use is only around 25% of group gross profit.”
For Tilray’s Canadian segments, Jefferies says that the company saw continued struggles in its recreational segment as they estimated sales were down 13% quarter over quarter. This comes after a 27% drop last quarter. Additionally, Tilray saw its overall market share drop from 12.8% to 10.7%. Though they do see some signs of optimism in these quarterly results, mainly that the market share losses have slowed and that the company is now taking market share in both vape and the pre-roll categories.
Though, Jefferies says that the rest of Tilray’s business is doing well, with their international cannabis segment sales up 15% sequentially while wellness sales were up 6% as well. Beverage alcohol sales were also up more than 40% sequentially.
Jefferies also notes that Tilray is “very well-positioned” in the key German market, by having a 20% market share. While also have its US THC optionality, which they say “is key for material re-rating of all cannabis names.”
