As part of its financial report for its first fiscal quarter of 2022, Organigram Holdings (NASDAQ:OGI,TSX:OGI) posted its highest ever quarterly net revenue — US$30.4 million, up 22 percent from the previous quarter.
“Our record-breaking results in the first quarter of Fiscal 2022 are a testament to our successful strategy to create innovative, high-quality products that align with the evolving preferences of the various segments of cannabis consumers,” Beena Goldenberg, CEO of Organigram, told investors.

"For the first time in recent history, Organigram recorded cleanly positive gross margins, and executing on a multifaceted effort to widen margins in the near term, that the company believes will yield positive EBITDA by 3Q22," Sarugaser said.

Cannabis companies get set for lawsuit after dispute
Following a public back-and-forth between two US-based cannabis companies, one of the parties in the dispute is ready to take matters to court.
AWH told shareholders it has “filed a complaint commencing a lawsuit in the Commercial Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York in New York County” against its former associate MedMen.
The dispute stems from the dissolution of a US$73 million investment deal in which AWH would be getting access to the coveted New York state cannabis market alongside MedMen.
AWH claims MedMen’s intention to cancel its commitment would go against guidelines from state regulators.
The company said the following on what it is attempting at the moment:
In addition, AWH has made an application for a preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order to maintain the status quo between the parties and to prevent any actions by the MedMen parties that would result in additional encumbrances on the equity or assets of MedMen NY, Inc.
