Cannabis producer Canopy Growth Corporation (NASDAQ: CGC) reported a wider net loss for the second quarter of 2023, hurt by a 10% fall in revenues.
In the three months that ended September 2022, the net loss widened to C$221.8 million or C$0.47 per share from C$11.06 million or C$0.03 per share in the same period of the previous year. The bottom line was negatively impacted by non-cash fair value changes and an increase in asset impairment and restructuring costs, which were partially offset by improved margins.
Second-quarter revenues decreased 10% annually to C$117.9 million, mainly reflecting weakness in the recreational cannabis segments and lower sales in the international market.
