Green Thumb beat all of Canaccord’s estimates for the fourth quarter. Most notably, they beat Canaccord’s revenue estimate by ~$3.5 million and adjusted gross margin by ~$15 million. The bottom line beat was great as well, with net income beating by ~$16.5 million and EPS by $0.03 cents.
Bottomley says that the beat primarily came from the company’s leading position in Illinois and Pennsylvania even though same-store sales were down 6% quarter over quarter. He writes, “we believe GTI’s exposure in Illinois is one of the most material value drivers for the company at this time. We estimate that GTI is competing for the #1 spot in the market with a current share of >20% and 100% wholesale penetration.”
