About Village Farms
Village Farms is a Canadian cannabis company that spent decades mastering greenhouse vegetable growing before pivoting fully to cannabis. They now operate the world's largest EU certified cannabis facility, a 4.8 million square foot campus in British Columbia. That scale and growing expertise make them one of the few cannabis companies actually turning a consistent profit.
The case for and against
Both sides of the story, in plain English.
- Europe Surge
International export sales jumped 171 percent year over year to a record 14.6 million dollars, with Netherlands sales rocketing 448 percent. Village Farms holds three of the top five cannabis strains sold in Germany and is capturing more share in a market where prices remain strong and stable.
- Profit Engine
Adjusted operating earnings grew 118 percent to 9.9 million dollars, more than four times faster than the 27 percent revenue growth. Gross margin climbed to 43 percent, the fourth straight quarter beating their own 30 to 40 percent target, and net income hit 2.9 million dollars.
- Cash Crunch
Operating cash flow swung to negative 11.8 million dollars this quarter after paying 15 million in Canadian income taxes from last year. They also spent 6.4 million on share buybacks and 9.2 million on capacity expansions, so investors are leaning on management's promise that cash will rebuild by year end.
- Policy Bet
A April 23rd executive order from President Trump moved to reschedule marijuana to Schedule III, with hearings starting June 29th. Village Farms is positioned to benefit, but if the rescheduling stalls in administrative or legal fights, the stock's US legalization premium could unwind fast.
