Green Thumb Industries Inc. (“Green Thumb,” or the “Company”) (CSE: GTII) (OTCQX: GTBIF), a leading national cannabis consumer packaged goods company and owner of Rise™ and Essence retail stores, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. Financial results are reported in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and all currency is in U.S. dollars.
“This is Green Thumb’s second consecutive quarter exceeding $100 million in sales, and our first half 2020 revenue already exceeds full fiscal year 2019 revenue. We are moving faster as our investments in infrastructure deliver operating leverage and the team continues to meet the evolving needs of our customers and communities,” said Green Thumb Chairman, Founder and Chief Executive Officer Ben Kovler.
Kovler continued, “Demand is strong as cannabis continues to behave like a consumer staple. In the face of the ongoing pandemic and social unrest, we remain laser-focused on executing our growth strategy while prioritizing the health and safety of our team and customers.”
“We opened six new stores during the quarter, bringing total stores to 48 nationwide, and successfully introduced an e-commerce platform enabling delivery and curb-side pickup. We also improved standardization and automation in production, resulting in improved speed-to-market of our consumer products. In early July, we opened our Toledo, Ohio manufacturing facility and began production and distribution of our brand portfolio in Ohio. We expect this, along with other capacity expansion projects in Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, to further propel our business in the second half of 2020.”
Financial Highlights
- Revenue: Total revenue for the second quarter 2020 increased 16.6% quarter-over-quarter and 167.5% year-over-year to $119.6 million. Revenue growth was driven primarily by the increased scale in the Company’s Consumer Packaged Goods and Retail businesses.

Additional Management Commentary
Kovler added, “The cannabis industry continues to play an essential role in the well-being of people and communities, especially in today’s environment. Cannabis generates critical tax revenues for states with legalized use and provides economic development opportunities. In our home state of Illinois, for example, the industry generated $66 million in tax revenue since the legalization of adult-use this past January. The month-over-month momentum continued with July total sales up 22% from June to $94 million, a record high.”
Kovler continued, “More than ever, we remain bullish on the long-term prospects of our business. We operate in high-growth, high-potential markets as we execute our enter, open and scale strategy to distribute brands at scale. Our team remains resilient and adaptable and we are well-positioned to capitalize on the estimated $75 billion U.S. cannabis industry that is unfolding before our eyes.”

- Gross branded product sales grew sequentially by approximately 21.6% quarter-over-quarter, driven primarily by expanded product distribution.
- Green Thumb’s manufacturing facilities in Oglesby, Illinois (the Company’s second manufacturing facility in the state) and New Jersey are expected to be completed and begin production in the third quarter of 2020. The Company is continuing to expand its existing Rock Island, Illinois and Danville, Pennsylvania production facilities, which are expected to increase capacity and production output in the second half of 2020.

Prior to that state’s retail reopening, Green Thumb provided delivery and curb-side pickup to customers.

Second Quarter 2020 Financial Overview
Total revenue for the second quarter 2020 was $119.6 million, up 167.5% from $44.7 million for the second quarter 2019, driven by growth from both the Consumer Packaged Goods and Retail businesses, particularly in Illinois and Pennsylvania. Key performance drivers are the expanded distribution of Green Thumb’s branded products, 19 new store openings, strategic acquisitions and increased traffic to the Company’s 48 open and operating retail stores.
In the second quarter 2020, Green Thumb generated revenue from all 12 of its markets: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

With a combined population of 1.633 billion people, or 21 percent of the world’s citizenry, the three countries signify a substantial opportunity for BevCanna. The markets’ growing and prosperous middle-class consumer base represents an ideal demographic for the TRACE products, as consumers increasingly opt for healthier lifestyle choices. The global nutraceutical market size is projected to reach US$722.49 billion by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 8.3% over the forecast period; Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period, particularly in Japan and China. 1 The Japanese market is particularly suited for the introduction of the TRACE brand, with its consumers having developed a decided preference for natural, health-conscious products. Two-thirds of Asian consumers believe in superfoods and natural health products for treating ailments 2 , representing a prime demographic for wellness-focused products.
“The Asian market is a natural fit for our TRACE line of plant-based and alkaline products,” said Melise Panetta, President of BevCanna. “We’ve been actively evaluating the market potential, while also fielding increased interest from Asian customers and partners in our TRACE plant-based mineral products and our Canadian natural alkaline spring water. Our portfolio of products will address a growing demand for nutraceuticals and wellness-focused natural products, and we’re pleased to announce our anticipated expansion into these significant markets”.
TRACE’s proprietary plant-based mineralized beverages and nutraceuticals contain fulvic and humic minerals, sourced from ancient organic compounds that are highly concentrated sources of trace minerals. Recognized benefits of the Health Canada-approved formulations include cognitive performance, gut health, immune function, and aiding the body in metabolizing carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Mineral-enhanced water is increasingly popular in Asia for its purported benefits to human immune systems and brain health.
TRACE’s proprietary alkaline spring water is bottled at source in British Columbia’s Okanagan region. The alkaline water provides additional benefits to the consumer as compared to most tap and conventional bottled water, including the increased presence of hydroxyl ions, increased hydration, improved bone health, healthier skin and decreased gastrointestinal symptoms.
