Cantor Fitzgerald’s Pablo Zuanic maintained a Neutral rating for Canopy Growth and reduced the price target from CA$27 ($19.23) to CA$25 ($17.81).
The Canopy Growth Thesis
The retail recreational market is expected to grow from CA$1.2 billion in 2019 to CA$2 billion in 2020, Zuanic said in a Wednesday note. (See his track record here.)
More than 40% of Canopy Growth’s revenues are not generated from core cannabis, the analyst said.

In the December quarter, Canopy Growth reported net sales of CA$124 million. As much as CA$15 million of that figure was generated by a distribution entity in Europe. Another CA$33 million came from the company’s ancillary businesses, including vape parts and devices; This Works; an international natural skincare line; and BioSteel, a Canadian sports drinks company, Zuanic said.
“We have lowered the price target partly on the higher share count and on lower EV/sales (Enterprise value to sales) ratios for the non-cannabis parts,” the analyst said.
Although the market is willing to pay a healthy premium for balance sheet strength, Canopy Growth’s stock is already trading significantly higher than other large Canadian peers, warranting the Neutral rating, according to Cantor Fitzgerald.
