Q2 2023 Financial and Operational Highlights*

  • Revenue of $282 million , with 96% of revenue from retail sales. Excluding deferred revenue, retail revenue increased by $3 million sequentially driven by increased traffic and volume partly offset by price compression.
  • Achieved GAAP gross margin of 50%, with gross profit of $142 million . Reclassification of idle capacity expense to COGS resulted in $2 million of tax savings.
  • SG&A expenses lowered by $4 million sequentially to $96 million .
  • Reported net loss of $404 million . Adjusted net loss of $15 million * excludes non-recurring charges, asset and goodwill impairments, disposals and discontinued operations. Goodwill impairment was triggered by the recent stock price performance and is not connected to management's forecasts.
  • Achieved adjusted EBITDA of $79 million *, or 28% of revenue.
  • Generated cash flow from operations excluding tax payments of $98 million year to date.
  • Inventory reduction initiatives drive $24 million in cash generation year to date.

Management Commentary
"Demand for legal cannabis remains strong and Trulieve sells the highest volume of branded product through branded retail in the U.S.," said Kim Rivers , Trulieve CEO. "Our focused strategy, scaled operations and leading retail position provide distinct competitive advantages."

Rivers continued, "We are on track to exit this year as a leaner, stronger organization, ready to meet the opportunities ahead."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we supplement our results with non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net loss (income), and adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP financial measures to evaluate our operating results and financial performance. We believe these measures are useful to investors as they are widely used measures of performance and can facilitate comparison to other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not, and should not be considered as, measures of liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered along with GAAP financial performance measures. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to such GAAP measures can be found below. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
