SANTA ANA, Calif., Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Unrivaled Brands, Inc. (OTCQB: UNRV) ("Unrivaled" or the "Company"), a cannabis company with operations throughout California, today reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended September 30, 2023.
Third Quarter 2023 Highlights
Patty Chan, Unrivaled’s Chief Financial Officer stated, “In Q3 2023, we maintained focus on our gross margin, achieving a retail gross margin of 52%. Despite the formidable challenges in the regulated cannabis market, we've proven resilient. We are operating in one of the most cutthroat markets in the United States, competing not just with the legal operators, but also the traditional market. As legislation begins to change, we anticipate the battle for market share to intensify further. Those who can adapt and excel today, will thrive in the future. We salute our fellow operators navigating this fiercely competitive landscape. We will remain committed to prioritizing customer retention and delivering an exceptional retail experience with high-quality, curated products. We will continue to navigate the evolving cannabis landscape, particularly in in California, as we look to a fully federally legal market and ripe opportunities.”
Non-GAAP Financial Information:
This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures assess the Company’s ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business, as they facilitate comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain material non-cash items and certain other adjustments the Company believes are not reflective of its ongoing operations and performance. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand operational decision-making, for planning and forecasting purposes, and to evaluate the Company’s financial performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s financial and operating performance and enable investors to evaluate the Company’s operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are included in the financial schedules attached to this press release. This information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for, or superior to, any measure of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
