Friends,
Yesterday for MSOS, the Q2 earning season has started for MSOS, and the three largest MSOS updates through press release and conference calls. Recently shared this site Report prospects::
Scenes were gloomy. The archery in the market opening on Wednesday, and the income and adjusted EBITDA was higher, but not very interesting. The Q3 guide was soft. The company completed Q2 with net debt for only $ 85.3 million, but it does not contain $ 746 million in tax liabilities. The GTI and Curalef and Curalef had the same time (GTI announced its time on July 2, and Curaleaf was scheduled for the same time). GTBIF has had a weak quarter, a decline in margins. The company suspends its quarterly conference, which is upcoming. Curaleaf was a weak quarter, but it hit the scores.
In 2025, Curalef is now a price at the beginning of this year. Here are the three-year-old return of these three companies.
Curaleaf. + 99.2% in Q3 so far and up to 7.7%
Green dull industry. + 24.7% in Q3 so far, but down by 15.9% per year
Walk. + 39.0% in Q3 so far and lift 1.9% per year
MSOS increased by 37.8% in Q3, but so far it has dropped 12.9% in 2025, closing for $ 3.30. It has a lot of positions in these three MSOS, which currently make up 69.4% of the portfolio. The NCV Global Cannabis stock index decreased by 19.5% so far in 2025 and has been raised by 10.4% so far.
MSOS has recently seen the growth of its shares after decreasing in the spring and has a stock count, which is now 150,275 million to 15.1%. In 2025, it strengthened its property in two large 3 MSOS.
GTI: -7.0%
Walk, + 11.2%
Curraleaf: + 20.7%
I continue to be very careful on MSOS and think that investors should get out of MSOS and each of these three MSOS. There are better ways to invest in Canada.
Frankly,
Alan

friends,
While the US is getting a lot of attention from cannabis investors, the industry faces many challenges in America. It’s been more than 12 years since Colorado shops opened their doors to adults beyond medical patients, and since then many states have embraced medical cannabis and adult cannabis. Although legal cannabis has expanded significantly, it remains a state-regulated market, and each state differs greatly in terms of rules and regulations. Cannabis remains illegal federally, and the industry continues to struggle 280E tax.
Cannabis markets outside the US continue to grow. Canada revised its federal medical cannabis program in 2013, with the MMPR replacing the MMAR, and the current Access to Cannabis for Public Purposes Regulations (ACMPR) replaced the MMPR in 2016. Justin Trudeau, who was elected Prime Minister in late 2015, became the first agenda item to legalize cannabis. implement adult use legalization in 2018. The program has its challenges, but the industry has grown as it has matured. StatsCan will release December sales data tomorrow, and it looks like cannabis sales are up about 4% for 2025.
Other countries have developed their own medical cannabis, including Australia, Germany and Israel, with Germany legalizing it for adult use. The Netherlands is holding trials in coffee shops. Uruguay, a small country, began legalizing cannabis sales to adults in 2017, and Germany began a program in 2024 to legalize cannabis for adults, although sales are through social clubs. While this program has not directly created commercial opportunities, it has boosted the market for medical cannabis. Unlike Canada, where cannabis is sold by the provinces, in Germany cannabis is sold in traditional pharmacies. A significant amount of medical cannabis sold in Germany is imported from Canada. David Brown of StratCann suggested this six months ago Almost 50% of German hemp imports in Q2 came from Canada.
The Global Hemp Stock Index, last recalculated at year-end, has 7 Canadian LPs, and these NASDAQ-listed companies tend to be active in international markets. Most MSOs in the US operate exclusively there, but one, Curaleaf, has international operations. Curaleaf trades on the TSX in Canada, but it trades in the US. The company reported total revenue of $320 million in its third quarter, with international operations (Canada, Germany, Portugal, Spain and the UK) accounting for just 14.4%. Year-to-date, it has registered just 12.9% as it has grown while domestic revenues have declined.
Canadian LPs in the index are Aurora Cannabis, Canopy Growth, Cronos Group, Organigram, SNDL, Tilray Brands and Village Farms. SNDL, which is more of an alcohol than cannabis retailer, has no international cannabis sales. The remaining six are active and active. This week, Organigram announced the acquisition of the rest of the German cannabis company, and it was already active in other markets. Cronos Group has announced the acquisition of CanAdelaar, a deal that is expected to close soon and will give it access to the Netherlands. Canopy Growth is acquiring MTL Cannabis, and increased exports of medical cannabis was a benefit he pointed to.
In: warned about Canadian LPs here at the end of November and I am now more optimistic about this part of the cannabis market. At the time I had 5 of the 7 GCSI members on my Focus List at 420 Investor, but I added Aurora Cannabis when they reported their financial Q3 and fell. Here’s how all 7 have performed since the end of November.
My 420 Investor model portfolio includes a small position in Tilray Brands, a large position in Aurora Cannabis, and a very large position in Organigram. These three positions represent 31.9% of the portfolio, while the GCSI has 27.4% exposure.
The Canadian LP market has certainly been cheaper than it is now, but it seems cheap enough. Balance sheets have improved dramatically, and some of these large companies are trading below tangible book value. NASDAQ listings are superior to the OTC listings that MSOs have. The Canadian market may improve, although I don’t expect it to, and international expansion may continue to help federally legal Canadian LPs export more or expand to other countries. These international operations also involve risks. I see a big international opportunity for Canadian LPs, and investors don’t seem very excited at the moment.
Sincerely,
Alan:
