Chalice Brands Ltd. CHAL CHALF reported its third-quarter financial results Tuesday with 29% year-over-year revenue growth to $8.0 million and announced it has completed a brokered private placement for gross proceeds of CA$5.7 million ($4.49 million).

Q3 Financial Highlights

  • Record quarterly revenues were partly driven by a full quarter of revenues from the company’s Homegrown Oregon stores;
  • 63.7% growth in gross profit for third quarter 2021 of $3.6 million, or 45% gross margin, compared to $2.2 million or 36% gross margin for the same period in 2020;
  • Adjusted EBITDA was a gain of around $600,000, representing the fourth consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA, and comparing to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $260,000 in the same period a year ago;
  • Net income amounted to $750,361, versus a net loss of $2.72 million in the same period of 2020;

“The third quarter was another outstanding performance for Chalice as we accomplished record revenues and our most profitable quarter to date,” Jeff Yapp, president and CEO of Chalice Brands stated. "During the quarter, we closed a transformative acquisition in Oregon of four retail dispensaries from Acreage, bolstering our retail footprint by 130% in the fiscal year. By maintaining our focus on profitable operations and accretive acquisitions, Chalice has immediately impacted the vertical contribution within the new stores ahead of schedule.”

Subsequent to third quarter, on October 7, the company announced the promotion of Meghan Miller to chief operating officer.
