U.S. vs Canadian Cannabis Profitability Update

Each of the top 5 U.S. cultivation & retail companies have margins that are more than double that of Village Farms, the Canadian company with the highest expected 2022 profitability. With significantly lower profitability Viridian Capital Advisors expected much lower revenue multiples than observed. Tilray and Sundial revenue multiples imply EV/EBITDA multiples of 49x and 65x respectively. The US companies trade at 2022 EBITDA multiples that range from a low of 6.5x for Trulieve and Verano to a high of 13.1x for GTI while the Canadians trade in a range of 14.7x to 65x. We have difficulty explaining this gap in valuation given the much higher profitability of the US companies. Even with increased acquisitions of U.S. companies by Canadian companies (requiring legislative/regulatory changes in many cases for full effectiveness), we do not believe this gap is justified or sustainable.
