Top US Marijuana Stocks to Watch in October: Industry Leaders and Market Movers

Ranking the Best Marijuana Penny Stocks for August 2023

The appeal of marijuana penny stocks has drawn considerable attention in the ever-changing economic landscape. With changing cannabis laws, the business has unparalleled opportunities for growth and innovation. As traders seek high-risk, high-reward investments, investing in penny stocks gives an enticing possibility.

The cannabis sector’s exponential expansion is undeniable, driven by changing perceptions and legislative breakthroughs. With a projected worth of billions, it’s a prime arena for investors seeking to capitalize on a burgeoning market. However, the unpredictability demands careful consideration, especially when navigating the realm of penny stocks – those valued at less than $5.

Trading penny stocks necessitates a distinct set of tactics that combine astute market analysis with a tolerance for volatility. While traditional equities provide stability, penny stocks thrive on the possibility of massive returns. However, this potential is matched by the hazards inherent in a market frequently influenced by speculation and external forces. As we investigate the top marijuana penny stocks, it’s critical to understand both the tantalizing promise and the related risks.

Operating Results

Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons below are to the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

  • Revenue was $25.8 million compared to $28.4 million, a decrease of 9.1%. The decline in revenue was driven by a decline in the average price of cannabis in Nevada, partially offset by an increase in wholesale revenue in Nevada.
  • Gross profit was $11.9 million or 46.0% compared to $13.8 million or 48.7%. The decline in gross profit was driven by a decrease in the average price of cannabis in Nevada and a greater percentage of revenue from lower-margin wholesale revenue.
  • Total expenses were $15.4 million compared to $15.6 million, a decrease of 1.6%. The decline in total expenses was driven by lower share-based compensation offset by higher professional fees associated with potential M&A.
  • Net loss of $4.3 million compared to a net loss of $2.0 million. The increase in net loss was driven by lower gross profit dollars and high one-time costs associated with potential M&A.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $3.0 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $2.9 million. The higher Adjusted EBITDA margin was primarily due to improvement in the Company’s operating costs.

Q2 2023 Financial Summary

  • Revenue was $41.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $47.1 million in the prior year period, with the decrease primarily attributable to Jupiter driven by lower sales volume as well as a number of orders occurring, but not fulfilled, at the end of the quarter, and lower average price in certain product lines.

  • Net loss was $26.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a net loss of $7.1 million in the prior year period, with the difference primarily driven by $15.7 million of non-cash write-down expenses related to inventory, investment and loans receivable in the second quarter of 2023.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) increased to $1.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.1 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by early progress with the Company’s strategic refinement and optimization initiatives.
