Insights

Aurora Cannabis has delivered a transformative quarter that signals a successful pivot to a sustainable, profitable business model. The standout achievement is the 51% growth in global medical cannabis revenue to $68.1 million, now representing 77% of total revenue and 90% of adjusted gross profit. This strategic focus on medical cannabis has yielded impressive margin improvements, with medical segment margins reaching 74%, up from 63% YoY.

The international expansion strategy is particularly noteworthy, with international revenue accounting for 60% of medical cannabis sales and growing 112% YoY. Key markets including Australia, Germany, Poland and the UK are driving this growth, suggesting successful market penetration and regulatory navigation. The company's decision to prioritize GMP-manufactured products for the medical segment over lower-margin consumer business demonstrates disciplined capital allocation.

The achievement of positive free cash flow ($27.4 million) is a important milestone that validates Aurora's operational efficiency initiatives. With $180 million in cash and a debt-free cannabis business (excluding non-recourse Bevo Farms debt), Aurora has built a robust financial foundation. The 316% increase in adjusted EBITDA to $23.1 million reflects improved operational leverage and successful cost management, suggesting sustainable profitability moving forward.

Aurora's Q3 results demonstrate successful market segmentation and strategic positioning in the global cannabis industry. The company's focus on medical cannabis markets, particularly in Europe and Australia, has proven prescient given the higher barriers to entry, more stable pricing and better margins compared to recreational markets. The 112% growth in international revenue highlights Aurora's strong competitive position in these regulated markets.

The plant propagation business through Bevo has emerged as a reliable growth driver, with revenue increasing 22% and margins improving to 40%. This diversification provides stable cash flows and operational synergies while reducing dependency on pure cannabis revenue streams. The deliberate reduction in consumer cannabis exposure (-15% YoY) reflects a strategic choice to prioritize profitable growth over market share in lower-margin segments.

The preliminary base shelf prospectus filing for US$250 million suggests Aurora is positioning itself for potential strategic opportunities while maintaining financial flexibility. This, combined with the company's strong cash position and improved operational metrics, indicates a well-planned growth strategy focused on sustainable value creation rather than mere market share acquisition.

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

(Unless otherwise stated, comparisons are made between fiscal Q3 2025, Q2 2025, and Q3 2024 results and are in Canadian dollars)

Consolidated Revenue and Adjusted Gross Profit:
Total net revenue1 was $88.2 million, as compared to $64.4 million in the prior year period. The 37% increase from the prior period was mainly due to 51% growth in our global medical cannabis business and 22% growth in our plant propagation business, slightly offset by lower quarterly revenue in our consumer cannabis business.

Consolidated adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments1 was 65% in Q3 2025 and 53% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted gross profit before FV adjustments1 was $56.0 million in Q3 2025 vs $33.6 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 67%.

Medical Cannabis:
Medical cannabis net revenue1 was $68.1 million, a 51% increase from the prior year quarter, delivering 77% of Aurora's Q3 2025 consolidated net revenue1 and 90% of adjusted gross profit before fair value adjustments1.

The increase in net revenue1 of $23.1 million was primarily due to higher sales to Australia, Germany, Poland, and the UK, as well as increased revenue in Canada to insurance covered and self-paying patients.

Adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments1 on medical cannabis net revenue reached 74% for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to 63% in the prior year quarter. The adjusted gross margins before fair value adjustments improved through sustainable cost reductions, higher selling prices, and improved efficiency in production operations, including sourcing for Europe from Canada.

Consumer Cannabis:
Aurora's consumer cannabis net revenue1 was $9.9 million, a 15% decrease compared to $11.6 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to our decision to prioritize the supply of our GMP manufactured products to our high margin global medical cannabis business rather than the consumer business, which offers lower margins.

Adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments1 on consumer cannabis net revenue1 was 26%, decreasing from 29% compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease from the prior year comparative quarter is primarily due to product sales with lower margins relative to the same period in the prior year.

Plant Propagation:
Plant propagation net revenue1 was wholly comprised of the Bevo business, and contributed $8.9 million of net revenue1, a 22% increase compared to $7.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was a result of organic growth and expanded product offerings, both arising from increased capacity.

Adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments1 on plant propagation revenue was 40% for Q3 2025 and 28% for the prior year quarter. The fluctuations in the plant propagation adjusted gross margin before fair value adjustments is due is due to higher margin ornamental plant sales in the third quarters. Additionally, Bevo's greenhouses are producing at higher capacity. 

Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A"):
Adjusted SG&A1 was $31.3 million in Q3 2025, which excludes $4.9 million of business transformation costs. The increase compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023 relates to higher freight and logistics costs, notably from sales to Europe with the increase in sourcing from Canada and incremental costs following the acquisition of MedReleaf Australia.

Net Income (Loss):
Net income from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $31.2 million compared to net loss of $17.1 million for the prior year period. The increase in net income of $48.3 million compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023 primarily relates to the improvement in gross profit of $54.0 million, partially offset with a decrease in other income of $5.3 million. The increase in gross profit includes an increase in unrealized gain on changes in fair value of biological assets of $42.4 million, partially offset by an increase in changes in fair value of inventory and biological assets sold of $15.2 million.

Adjusted EBITDA: 
Adjusted EBITDA1 increased 316% to $23.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $5.5 million for the prior year quarter.

Fiscal Q4 2025 Expectations:

  • Continued revenue growth across our cannabis business, supported by year over year growth in international medical cannabis.
  • Seasonally higher revenues for plant propagation, in line with historical seasonal trends.
  • Margins to hold strong and positive adjusted EBITDA to continue.
  • Improved operating cash use will be supported by continued spend discipline on capex and expected revenue growth.
  • Free cash flow is projected to be modestly positive due to continued revenue growth and improved operating cash use.

Subsequent Events:
Concurrently with filing of the Q3 Financials, the Company has filed a preliminary base shelf prospectus which, together with a corresponding registration statement to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, when made final or effective, will replace the Company's existing base shelf prospectus that is due to expire on May 27, 2025 and will qualify the issuance of U.S.$250 million of common shares, warrants, options, subscription receipts, debt securities and/or units of the Company during the 25-month period that it remains effective.
