Revenue

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, net revenues were $33.3 million and $87.7 million as compared to $28.2 million and $74.2 million during the same period in 2023, representing increases of 18%. Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were comprised of approximately 59% (2023 – 67%) and 60% (2023 – 61%) in sales of dried flower and pre-roll Cannabis Products, with the remainder from oils and Cannabis 2.0 Product sales. 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, approximately 76% (2023 – 81%) and 77% (2023 – 84%) of cannabis sales originated from sales to British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.

Gross Profit

Auxly realized a gross profit of $17.1 million and $42.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, resulting in a 52% and 48% Gross Profit Margin, respectively as compared to $4.6 million (16%) and $18.5 million (25%) during the same periods in 2023. The Gross Margin on Finished Cannabis Inventory Sold for the three months ended September 30, 2024 improved to 47% versus 30% in the same period of 2023 as a result of the streamlining and improvements made in our manufacturing process to reduce operating costs and increased demand and pricing of bulk flower product.

Realized and unrealized fair value gains and losses reflect accounting treatments associated with Auxly Leamington cultivation activities and sales and are influenced by changes in production, sales and net realizable value assumptions.

Inventory impairments during the third quarter of 2024 of $0.7 million were associated with charges related to the obsolescence of certain retired products, a decrease of $2.6 million from the comparative period.

Total Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") are comprised of wages and benefits, office and administrative, professional fees, business development, and selling expenses. SG&A expenses were $8.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, $1.6 million or 16% lower than the same period in 2023. Year-to-date expenditures of $26.4 million in 2024 were $2.5 million lower than the same period in 2023. The decrease in SG&A was primarily as a result of measures taken to reduce overhead in the organization.

Wages and benefits were $3.9 million for the third quarter of 2024, as compared to $4.0 million for the same period of 2023. Year-to-date expenditures of $13.0 million were higher than that of $11.9 million during the same period in 2023. The increase in expenses year-to-date was related to non-recurring restructuring related costs that were partially offset by the decrease in expenses related to the streamlining of operations and support staff as a result of a more focused product portfolio.

Office and administrative expenses were $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2024, $1.5 million lower than the same period in 2023. Year-to-date expenditures of $3.7 million were lower than that of $8.1 million during the same period in 2023. The decreased expenditures were primarily related to streamlining of operations, the transition of the Company's dried flower and pre-roll cannabis product manufacturing, processing and distribution activities to the Auxly Leamington facility, and reduced insurance expenses.

Auxly's professional fees were $0.5 million during the third quarter of 2024, $0.5 million lower than the same period in 2023. Year-to-date expenditures of $1.4 million were $1.0 million lower than the same period in 2023. Professional fees incurred primarily related to accounting fees, regulatory matters, reporting issuer fees, and legal fees associated with certain corporate activities and as a result can fluctuate significantly from one period to the next.

Business development expenses were $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $0.1 million lower than the same period in 2023. These expenses primarily relate to business development and travel related expenses.

Selling expenses were $2.8 million and $8.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $0.5 million and $1.8 million from the same periods in 2023, respectively. The increase in expenditures was primarily as a result of investments in marketing initiatives and higher Health Canada fees related to higher revenues.

Equity-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $1.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, primarily due to the impact of the increased closing price of the Company's Shares as at September 30, 2024 on the value of Cash Settled RSUs granted in 2023. During the same periods of 2023, equity-based compensation was $0.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively. 

Depreciation and amortization expenses were $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2024 and $3.5 million year-to-date, representing a decrease of $0.6 million and $1.7 million over the same periods in 2023. The decreases were primarily as a result of reductions in intangible assets and depreciation associated with disposed assets, including the transition out of the Auxly Ottawa Carleton Place facility.

Interest expenses were $3.1 million and $12.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $3.5 million and $6.1 million over the same periods in 2023. The decrease in expenses were primarily a result of the conversion of Imperial Debentures into Shares and lower interest expense on adjustable-rate debt, partially offset by interest from newly financed obligations. Interest expense includes accretion on the convertible debentures and interest paid in kind on the Imperial Debenture. Interest payable in cash was approximately $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2024, flat to the same period in 2023.

Total Other Incomes and Losses

Total other incomes and losses was a net gain of $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2024 and a net loss of $0.7 million year-to-date, compared to net gains of $47.2 million and $45.5 million in the comparative periods. The year-to-date other incomes and losses included the loss on the adjustment to the provision related to the claim filed by Kindred Partners Inc., the loss on the sale of the Auxly Ottawa facility, partially offset by the gains on the extensions of the unsecured promissory notes. The net gains in 2023 were primarily driven by the gains on the extension of the maturity of the Imperial Brands Debenture, partially offset by the closure of the Auxly Ottawa facility where the carrying value exceeded the fair value less cost to sell.

Net Income and Loss

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $3.2 million, representing a net income of $nil per share on a basic and diluted basis. Excluding the gains on the extension of the Imperial Brands Debenture in the third quarter of 2023 of $46.9 million, net income increased by $17.5 million, primarily driven by improved gross profits and reduction in expenses. The net loss of $20.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 included $16.0 million of deferred tax expense on the conversion of Imperial Debenture into Shares.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA was $8.3 million and $15.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, an improvement of $8.2 million and $16.5 million over the same period of 2023, primarily as a result of improvements in gross profits and reductions in SG&A.

Outlook 

In 2024, Auxly remains dedicated to sustainable growth, improved profitability, and the excellence of its people. The Company will prioritize focused and efficient growth in its key product categories of vape, pre-roll and dried flower and continue to optimize and improve distribution and sales of its products. The Company will continue to foster a collaborative team environment and pursue continued improvements in efficiency to reduce costs and deliver strong gross margins and increased profitability. The Company will also continue to pursue opportunities to strengthen its balance sheet.

The continued execution against the Company's strategy has delivered the best quarter in Auxly's history across all key metrics. Building off the momentum from the first half of 2024, Auxly increased both revenue and profits in this quarter and gained overall market share in the adult recreational market exiting Q3 as the 4th largest licensed producer in Canada by retail sales3. The improvements in Company performance were driven by higher sales volumes in its core product categories and continued cost discipline. Dried flower retail sales increased by over 12% compared to the previous quarter with its Back Forty Liquid Imagination 28g SKU securing the #3 SKU nationally, an improvement from its top 10 SKU position in the previous quarter. In the hyper competitive vape category, Auxly branded products represented approximately 50% of the top 10 vape SKU's nationally, driven by the continued dominance of the Company's products within the all-in-one vape segment. Auxly's pre-roll retail sales increased by nearly 19% quarter over quarter which was led by the consumer favourite Back Forty branded product suite. Looking ahead, Auxly will continue to drive revenue performance with product innovation in its core product formats, deepen relationships with key account retailers and expand product distribution.

The shift in product mix towards the Company's core categories and continued operational improvements contributed to the higher gross profits in the quarter, reflecting a 47% Finished Cannabis Inventory Sold Margin compared to 30% in the comparative period. The successful execution of the Company's previously disclosed efforts to increase cultivation yields also contributed to the improved gross margin, as the Company efficiently increased yields, thereby resulting in a lower cost of goods sold. The Company remained disciplined in its spending and capital management. The Company successfully reduced overhead across the organization, ending the third quarter with $8.5 million in SG&A expenses. This is 16% lower than the comparative period in 2023 and lower than the second quarter of this year.  Looking ahead, Auxly will remain focused on enhancing operational efficiency; enabling it to set new industry benchmarks for profitability while continuing to deliver sustainable growth.

Auxly's low-cost cultivation is a competitive advantage within the current Canadian cannabis landscape. With only a few large-scale greenhouses capable of consistently producing high quality cannabis at a low cost, the Company is seeing increased demand and pricing for its bulk flower products. Given the significant capital outlay and amount of time necessary to replicate the scale, automation, consistency, and efficiency of its Auxly Leamington facility, the Company believes that Auxly Leamington provides it with a significant competitive advantage from competition in the short and medium term. The Company intends to leverage this advantage to drive further growth in the Canadian adult-use market and in wholesale bulk cannabis sales to other industry participants.

Importantly, the Company also took steps this quarter to continue strengthening its balance sheet. Auxly repaid the outstanding principal on the standby financing facility in August 2024 and subsequent to quarter-end, it extended the maturity date of the inventory financing loan to October 2025.  Balance sheet improvement will continue to be a key area of focus for the Company with the goal of lowering overall debt and cost of capital.

Looking ahead, the Company will continue to prioritize efficient growth and sustainable profitability, driven by the excellence of its people, increased consumer demand for its quality products, an exciting pipeline of innovative new products and its commitment to continued improvement in operational efficiency and overhead cost management.
