TDR Commentary
After the close, Body and Mind announced fiscal year 2020 financial results. While the company achieved record annual consolidated and managed revenues, the real story was the quarterly results, which provided a sneak peek into what is coming directly ahead.
Fourth quarter consolidated sales soared to $2.17 million—increasing 106% on a sequential quarterly basis—reflect augmented growth from existing operations new top line revenues from BaM’s majority-owner San Diego dispensary. Managed revenue also registered a 39% gain over Q3, as revenues from BaM’s Arkansas dispensary were recognized for the first time. Both operations opened near the end of the previous quarter.
In the next fiscal quarter (FY 2021 Q1), investors can expect much more consolidated revenue recognition on the top line. BaM completed the license transfer of both its Long Beach and Ohio dispensaries in early September, allowing managed revenues to shift over. TDR expects approximately two-third of these revenues can be consolidated in the next reporting cycle.
Fourth quarter system wide managed revenue of US$5.57 million—a significant portion of which is attributed to the aforementioned dispensaries.
TDR will have further coverage as events warrant.
