Speaker #3: Thanks, Max. And Q4 and full fiscal year—good morning, everyone. Really excited to share our Q4 2025 results with you. Fiscal 2025 was a busy and redefining year for OrganiGram.
Tim Emberg: Thanks, Max. Good morning, everyone. We are really excited to share our Q4 and full fiscal year '25 results with you. Fiscal '25 was a busy and redefining year for Organigram. We strengthened our Canadian market share leadership, achieving the number one market share position. We advanced our operational capabilities and significantly accelerated our international business. In Q4, we delivered record quarterly gross and net revenue, along with our highest adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA since the end of 2019. In fiscal '25, we achieved record gross and net revenue, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, and record international sales. A key driver of this growth was our acquisition of Motif Labs, which, unlike many transactions in the sector, did not result in market share dilution in fiscal '25. This was a really big win for us and a true reflection of a full team effort.

Speaker #3: Unlike many transactions in the sector, which did not result in market share dilution in fiscal 2025, this was a really big win for us and a true reflection of a full motif. We added a centralized team effort.
Speaker #3: With Q4 2025, we materially increased our overall fiscal physical footprint. We achieved yields and annual capacity among the facility without expanding our cultivation practices, and improved this by implementing more advanced care methods and seed-based cultivation.
Tim Emberg: With Motif, we added a centralized distribution hub in Ontario, along with advanced extraction and production facilities for vapes and pre-rolls. Today, with our five facilities operating across the country, we have greater control of our supply chain and are well-positioned to address evolving consumer needs in Canada and abroad. In fiscal 2025, we materially increased our overall yields and annual capacity at our Moncton facility without expanding our physical footprint. We achieved this by implementing more advanced cultivation practices, improved plant care methods, and seed-based cultivation. We also continued to advance research and cultivation programs that support better quality and lower cost. A good example of this is the identification of genetic markers for powdery mildew that is now being bred into certain cultivars.

Tim Emberg: Our investments in cultivation and plant care allow us to deliver the largest capacity output in company history, and we expect to increase flower output further into fiscal 2026. We are also grateful to Opportunities New Brunswick for supporting our facility enhancements with a recent CAD 2 million grant and, by extension, supporting the economy of New Brunswick, where we currently employ roughly 700 Organigram staff. If we look at the Canadian market, in Canada, we currently hold the number one market position with 11.9% market share in fiscal 2025. Nationally, three of our brands, Shred, Boxhot, and Big Bag O' Buds, were among the top 10 cannabis brands in fiscal 2025 by retail sales. For the three months ending September 2025, we held strong share in Canada's four largest markets: Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, and Alberta.

Speaker #3: For the three months ending September 2025, we held strong share in Canada's four largest markets: Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, and Alberta. We are number one in all these markets with the exception of Quebec, where we ranked fourth in fiscal '25, but continue to lead in almost every other province, notably 34.2% in New Grow.
Tim Emberg: We are number one in all these markets, with the exception of Quebec, where we ranked fourth in fiscal 2025, but continue to grow. We saw even higher market share across almost every other province, notably 34.2% in New Brunswick, 23.7% in Newfoundland, 14.9% in Saskatchewan, and 12.2% in Nova Scotia. Category performance varied throughout the year. We saw gains in whole flower, edibles, beverages, non-hash concentrates, and infused pre-rolls, while competition increased in vapes, milled flower, and overall pre-rolls. Looking ahead to fiscal 2026, we have several opportunities to grow in Canada. In Quebec, we recently launched our vape portfolio with very positive indicators to date and are extremely excited about other opportunities in the province, such as expanding our infused pre-roll line, offerings, and launching beverages.

In line with this, we also have several compelling products launching this year that we know consumers will absolutely love.
Tim Emberg: In line with our consumer-centric approach and dedication to innovation, we also have several compelling products launching this year that we know consumers will absolutely love. We are preparing to launch a new family of coated infused pre-rolls, new all-in-one vape hardware, and in beverages, consumers can expect new formats and flavors, including the exciting launch of Shred Soda. To support our beverage business, our manufacturing line in Winnipeg is now ramping up and expected to begin production over the coming months. The key focal points for us, really, in the Canadian business this year is increasing the margin profile, our domestic product mix, and continuing to optimize our operational footprint for capacity, throughput, and streamlined logistics, work that also directly supports our international growth objectives.

Speaker #3: Throughput, and streamlined logistics. Work that also directly supports our international growth objectives. Worth noting, though, that in Q1 of this fiscal year, we experienced a temporary market share impact as a result of the eight-week BC General Employees Union strike, which ended on October 26.
Tim Emberg: It's worth noting, though, that in Q1 of this fiscal year, we experienced a temporary market share impact as a result of the eight-week BC General Employees' Union strike, which ended on 26 October. During the strike, only small-scale local growers were able to ship products directly to retail stores into the province, which affected the market share of most large LPs. We are already seeing a strong rebound towards a historical share of the province, though. From an international front perspective, earlier this year, we formalized an international business unit focused on expanding our global footprint. The team's focus in fiscal 2025 was on accelerating our international wholesale business and expanding our brands into new markets. We achieved three major international milestones in fiscal 2025. First, we delivered the highest international sales in the company's history, reaching CAD 26.3 million, up 171% from CAD 9.7 million in fiscal 2024.

Speaker #3: Growth was supported by our partnership with Sanity Group in Germany, along with flower shipments to customers in the UK and Australia. Second, we commenced sales in the United States under our collective project in Fetch Brands.
Tim Emberg: This growth was supported by our partnership with Sanity Group in Germany, along with flower shipments to customers in the UK and Australia. Second, we commenced sales in the United States with hemp-derived THC beverages under our Collective Project in Fetch Brands. These products are now available in multiple brick-and-mortar locations in 12 states and online in 24 states through our DTC platform. Third, we expanded our US portfolio with the launch of Happily, a functional edibles lifestyle brand. These products combine cannabinoids with functional ingredients, leveraging our fast technology for faster onset and predictable effects. Given the recent provision in the US Federal Funding Act that would effectively ban hemp-derived THC by 13 November 2026, we are monitoring efforts to repeal, replace, or delay the amendment, though the outcome remains uncertain at this time. Our US business does not currently represent a significant share of our revenue.

Tim Emberg: If the provision stands, we do not expect a material adverse economic impact to Organigram. We are also monitoring recent media reports regarding cannabis rescheduling in the US. While no regulatory decisions have been finalized, Organigram is encouraged by the direction of these discussions and recognizes that meaningful federal reform could positively impact the operating and investment environment for the global cannabis sector by reducing regulatory friction and supporting more sustainable industry growth long-term. As the global cannabis trend continues, we see strong growth potential for our flower, our brands, and innovation products in international markets outside of the US. In the near term, investors can expect to see us launch branded vapes and gummies in Australia and expanded flower exports. Our pending EU-GMP application. In October 2025, we submitted additional clarifying information as requested by the regulator, and we await a determination on our application.

Provinces like New Brunswick and Ontario have demonstrated a clear understanding of both the opportunities and the challenges in the sector. They have shown support for advancing discussions with the federal government on critical issues such as excise reform and strategies to strengthen the legal cannabis market. While there's still a lot of work ahead, this growing alignment is an encouraging sign of constructive dialogue and a shared commitment to finding practical, forward-looking solutions.

Adjusted gross profit for the quarter increased 85% to CAD 30.6 million versus CAD 16.5 million in Q4 last year due to our significantly higher revenue base, international sales growth, incremental efficiency gains, partially offset by higher biomass costs. On a full-year basis, adjusted gross margin was 35%, in line with our fiscal 2025 guidance and a 100 basis point increase from last year. This translated into record adjusted gross profit of CAD 91 million versus CAD 53.9 million last year.

Speaker #2: Adjusted gross profit for the quarter increased 85% to $30.6 million, versus $16.5 million in Q4 last year, due to our significantly higher revenue base, international sales growth, and incremental efficiency gains, partially offset by higher biomass costs.
Speaker #2: On a full-year basis, adjusted gross margin was 35%, in line with our fiscal 2025 guidance, and a 100 basis point increase from last year. This translated into record adjusted gross profit of $91 million, versus $53.9 million last year.
Speaker #2: Adjusted gross margin in Q4 rose by 400 basis points over Q3 to 38%. While we are pleased with this progress, we see further margin improvement in fiscal 2026, driven by several key factors.
Max Schwartz: Adjusted Gross Margin in Q4 rose by 400 basis points over Q3 to 38%. While we are pleased with this progress, we see further margin improvement in fiscal 2026, driven by several key factors. First, we are realizing synergies from the Motif acquisition. In fiscal 2025, we achieved approximately CAD 7.1 million in cost savings, which, on an annualized basis, reflects more than CAD 15 million in savings, in line with our previously disclosed target. We did see some offsets during the year, including higher biomass costs, a temporary disruption to our OTIF performance related to the Motif ERP integration, which we discussed last quarter, and higher benefits costs for legacy Motif employees. In addition, a portion of these savings relates to lower consumables and production costs, which will only flow through earnings as the associated inventory is sold.

Speaker #2: In addition, a portion of these savings relates to lower consumables and production costs, which will be realized as associated inventory is sold. With the majority of the integration now complete, only a portion will flow through earnings. We expect operational leverage from the Motif acquisition to continue building through fiscal 2026.
Max Schwartz: With the majority of the integration now complete, we expect operational leverage from the Motif acquisition to continue building through fiscal 2026. Second, we continue to optimize our cultivation methods to increase output per square foot in Moncton, benefit from our recent LED lighting upgrades, and reduce labor costs associated with plant care. Third, we anticipate incremental margin lift from the continued international growth. These drivers support our expectation that adjusted gross margin will continue to improve in fiscal 2026, with full-year margins higher than fiscal 2025, in line with previous guidance. In Q4, G&A costs were CAD 17.6 million versus CAD 9.5 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year increase in G&A of approximately CAD 8.1 million was primarily associated with the consolidation of Motif's costs, incremental ERP and professional fees, partially offset by some cost savings initiatives.

Speaker #2: As a proportion of net revenue, G&A costs represented roughly 22%. This was flat sequentially and up approximately 100 basis points from the same prior year period in Q4.
Max Schwartz: As a proportion of net revenue, G&A costs represented roughly 22% of net revenue in Q4, which was flat sequentially and up approximately 100 basis points from the same prior year period. In fiscal 2025, G&A costs of CAD 59.5 million represented 23% of net revenue, down from 28% of net revenue last year. Selling costs for the quarter, including marketing, were CAD 8.9 million versus 8.8 million. Right. As a percentage of net revenue, selling and marketing expenses remained flat sequentially and year-over-year at approximately 12%. In fiscal 2025, these expenses of CAD 31.1 million represented 12% of net revenue, approximately 400 basis points lower than in fiscal 2024. Overall, SG&A has declined year-over-year as a proportion of net revenue as we continue to scale the business and realize the benefits of greater operational leverage.

Speaker #2: Total operating expenses for the quarter increased 8.5% to $30.6 million, from $28.3 million in the prior quarter, representing approximately 38% of net revenue, down approximately 200 basis points sequentially.
Max Schwartz: Total operating expenses for the quarter increased 8.5% to CAD 30.6 million from CAD 28.3 million in the prior quarter, representing approximately 38% of net revenue, down approximately 200 basis points sequentially. Compared to the prior year period, total operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue were effectively flat. Adjusted EBITDA set a company record in fiscal 2025. In Q4, we reported adjusted EBITDA of CAD 9.8 million, an increase of 72% sequentially and 69% year-over-year. In fiscal 2025, adjusted EBITDA was CAD 21.9 million, up 160% from CAD 8.4 million in 2024. We're very pleased with this performance, which we expect to build upon in the future. An interesting fact is that Q4 adjusted EBITDA exceeded the entire year of fiscal 2024. The increase in adjusted EBITDA, both in the quarter and for fiscal 2025, is attributable to our larger scale, increased international sales, and proportionally lower operating expenses.

Our net loss for the quarter was $38 million, compared to a net loss of $5.4 million in the same prior year period.
Max Schwartz: Our net loss for the quarter was CAD 38 million, compared to a net loss of CAD 5.4 million in the same prior year period. The increase in net loss of roughly CAD 32.5 million year-over-year was primarily due to higher non-cash mark-to-market adjustments in the fair value of derivative liabilities, preferred shares, and other financial assets. This change was partially offset by higher sales and improving gross margins in Q4 fiscal 2025, reflecting operational efficiencies, product mix optimization, and ongoing cost management initiatives. For the fiscal 2025, net loss decreased 46% to CAD 24.8 million from CAD 45.4 million in the prior year period. The decrease in net loss from fiscal 2024 is primarily due to higher sales, higher adjusted gross margins, and a deferred tax recovery that was reported in fiscal 2025.

Speaker #2: From a cash flow perspective, in Q4, cash provided by operating activities before working capital changes was $3.1 million, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year period.
Max Schwartz: From a cash flow perspective, in Q4, cash provided by operating activities before working capital changes was CAD 3.1 million, compared to CAD 1.2 million in the prior year period. In fiscal 2025, cash used by operating activities before working capital changes was CAD 5.5 million, compared to cash used of CAD 11.1 million in the prior year period. This improvement in both periods is attributable to our higher adjusted EBITDA. We previously estimated free cash flow to be positive for Q4 fiscal 2025. The company had free cash flow just shy of positive at negative CAD 0.7 million in Q4 fiscal 2025, which was lower than projected, primarily due to higher investment in working capital than previously planned. Finally, as of year-end, we had total cash and short-term investments of CAD 84.4 million, of which CAD 28.2 million was unrestricted.

While we believe our near-to-medium-term capital position is healthy, we regularly evaluate our capital structure to ensure we're maintaining appropriate long-term financial flexibility.
Max Schwartz: While we believe our near-to-medium-term capital position is healthy, we regularly evaluate our capital structure to ensure we're maintaining appropriate long-term financial flexibility. We feel very confident in our outlook for fiscal 2026. This is supported by our record financial performance in fiscal 2025, our margin improvements, and the continued expansion of our international business. We expect to deliver very strong year-over-year growth in Q1, while noting that, consistent with prior years, we anticipate a seasonal sequential reduction versus our typically strong Q4 results. For fiscal 2026, we are projecting continued strong net revenue growth expected to exceed CAD 300 million, along with further improvements in adjusted gross margin and adjusted EBITDA compared to fiscal 2025. We also expect to generate free cash flow in fiscal 2026, with capital expenditures expected to be less than CAD 10 million.

Speaker #2: Peter, over to you. Thank you, Greg. And thank you, everyone, for joining us today. Look, I just want to close by acknowledging a couple of things.
Tim Emberg: Thank you, Greg, and thank you, everyone, for joining us today. Look, I just want to close by acknowledging a couple of things. First of all, I want to talk about the strong momentum that Organigram has built this year. We delivered record revenue. We delivered our highest gross margin, and Adjusted EBITDA since 2019, and we continue to be the number one position in the Canadian marketplace while accelerating our international growth and shipments. I'd also like to talk just quickly about the Motif Labs acquisition. As many of you know, M&A transactions are difficult. Data would suggest that up to 75% of these transactions never achieve their financial targets. Well, Motif has been a clear outlier. The integration strengthened our capabilities, contributed meaningfully to our financial performance, and importantly, we did so without losing any market share. So, as we look ahead, we also expect continued growth.

Speaker #2: As Greg has said, supported by a stronger platform, expanding international opportunities, and the operational discipline that has driven our recent success will help drive our margin.
Tim Emberg: As Greg has said, supported by a stronger platform, expanding international opportunities, and the operational discipline that has driven our recent success will help drive our margin. And one other point, we'll also be fairly focused on our SG&A expense as well. Before closing, I want to do two things. I want to extend our sincere thanks to Beena Goldenberg. Beena and her leadership and steady hand through a dynamic period for both Organigram and the industry. Her contributions have positioned us very well for the next phase. Finally, we're also very pleased to welcome our new CEO, James Yamanaka, who will be coming in early January. James brings a wealth of experience.

Speaker #4: Hi, good morning. Thank you for the questions
Aaron Gray: Hi, good morning. Thank you for the questions and congrats on the strong quarter to finish the fiscal year. First question for me, I want to talk about international. Strong quarter here. I want to talk about how good of a base this might be to build off of. I know you talked about significant growth in fiscal year 2026. How much, and then also more concerns of how much of that enhanced cultivation, I believe you said, 14,000kg last quarter. Have you started to realize that, or is that still to come? Because I know that was pegged for international. So, any commentary on international growth expectations you expect going forward, and then maybe some of the supply-demand dynamics you're seeing within those markets? Thanks.

Speaker #4: And congrats on the strong quarter to finish the fiscal year. First question for me, I want to talk about international—strong quarter here. I want to talk about how good of a base this might be to build off of.
Speaker #4: I know you talked about significant growth in fiscal year 2026. How much? And then also, more concerns on how much of that enhanced cultivation—I believe you said 14,000 kilograms last quarter.
Speaker #4: Have you started to realize that, or is that still to come? Because I know that was pegged for international. So, any commentary on international growth expectations you expect going forward?
Speaker #4: And then maybe some of the supply-demand dynamics you're seeing within those markets. Thanks.
Speaker #2: Yeah, maybe—thanks for the question, Aaron. Maybe I'll kick that off. So yeah, we're starting to realize this increased capacity already. We recently increased—we're looking at about a 14,000-kilogram annual capacity increase with the changes that we just made.
Tim Emberg: Yeah, maybe. Thanks for the question, Aaron. Maybe I'll kick that off. So, yeah, we're starting to realize this increased capacity already. We recently increased. We're looking at about a 14,000kg annual capacity increase with the changes that we just made. That includes our LED light switchover to high-density LED lights, turnover timelines on our rooms, and some nutrient programs that we've been rolling out along with our seed-based growth. So, we have 14,000kg. We expect to grow further capacity in fiscal 2026. I think from a supply and demand perspective, we're well positioned for fiscal 2026. Obviously, Germany is growing exponentially right now. We feel very comfortable in our supply growth that we have right now to be able to shift that into Germany and other international markets. And we are seeing more capacity come online, even from a competitive landscape.
Tim Emberg: Yeah, maybe. Thanks for the question, Aaron. Maybe I'll kick that off. So, yeah, we're starting to realize this increased capacity already. We recently increased.

Speaker #2: That includes our LED light switchover to high-density LED lights, turnover, timelines on our rooms, and some nutrient programs that we've been rolling out along with our seed-based growth.
Speaker #2: So we have 14,000. We expect to grow further capacity in fiscal '26. I think from a supply and demand perspective, we're well positioned for fiscal '26.
Speaker #2: Obviously, Germany is growing exponentially right now. We feel very comfortable in our supply growth that we have right now to be able to shift that into Germany and other international markets.
Speaker #2: And we are seeing more capacity come online, even from a competitive landscape. So we are seeing more volume that's going into these markets, and more capacity that's coming online from a competitive perspective.
Tim Emberg: So, we are seeing more volume that's going into these markets and more capacity that's coming online from a competitive perspective. But overall, we are taking a disciplined approach to capacity expansion, and we do believe that our plan to increase in fiscal 2026 is appropriate in the near term. We are evaluating other options to expand flower capacity further, though. So, if we need it, we will move as the market continues to grow.

Speaker #4: Thanks for that comment. That helps.
Aaron Gray: Thanks for that comment. That's helpful. Tim, is it also fair to add that we've also got some derivative products that will be shipped internationally in fiscal 2026?
Aaron Grey: Thanks for that comment. That's helpful.
Speaker #2: And also, Tim, is it also fair to add that we've also got some internationally—in fiscal derivative products—that will be shipped?
Peter Amirault: Tim, is it also fair to add that we've also got some derivative products that will be shipped internationally in fiscal 2026?
Speaker #2: '26? Yes, that's a whole other we—
Tim Emberg: Yes, that's a whole other, we are looking at other categories to expand out as well. Australia, for example. Germany's really flower right now and oil. But with countries like Australia and other international markets, they're opening different categories up. Vapes, for example, and gummies. So, we've lined up with three strong strategic partners in Australia, and we will be launching branded vapes into the Australian market along with gummies into the Australian market in the coming months. So, we're excited about that as well. So, it's not just flower. As more categories open up, that also gives us other opportunities to grow the business internationally.

Speaker #5: Are looking at other categories to expand out as well. Australia, for example—Germany's really flowering right now in oil. But with countries like Australia and other international markets, they're opening different categories up.
Speaker #5: Vapes, for example, and gummies. So, we are lined up with strong strategic partners in Australia, and we will be launching branded vapes into the Australian market, along with gummies into the Australian market, in the coming months.
Speaker #5: So we're excited about that as well. So it's not just flower. As more categories open up, that also gives us other opportunities to grow the business.
Speaker #5: internationally. I appreciate that call.
Aaron Gray: Appreciate that, Colin. That's helpful. Second question for me, just on the gross margin. I know you talked about the expectation for it to be better than 2025, 35%. Just want to get some more color given the strong Q4 of 38%. Whether it's some one-offs in Q4 that could moderate during 2026, or is it fair to say that there might be some conservatism maybe within the gross margin improvements going forward? And just want to clarify that does not include any further enhancement once you receive the EU-GMP. Thanks.

Speaker #4: That's helpful. Second question for me, just on the gross margin. I know you talked about the expectation for it to be better than the 2025 35%.
Speaker #4: So, I want to get some more color, given the strong Q4 of 38%. Were there some one-offs in Q4 that could moderate during 2026?
Speaker #4: Or is it fair to say that there might be some conservatism maybe within the gross margin improvements going forward? And just want to clarify, that does not include any further enhancement once you receive the EU GMP.
Speaker #2: Hey, thanks, Aaron.
Greg Guyatt: Hey, thanks, Aaron. Yeah, the 38% that we had in Q4 is obviously something we're very happy with. It is a 100 basis points improvement over the same period last year. So, going into fiscal 2026, we're expecting that to continue improving. I would say Q1 is traditionally not our strongest quarter from a seasonality perspective, so we expect less scale to benefit from in Q1. But over the course of the year, we expect a positive trend in gross margin, really driven by the operational improvements that Tim talked about. We've been able to pretty significantly increase our capacity without making major capital investments and physical changes to the facility. And all of that is really bringing down our cost per gram, which is driving those margin improvements. Also, we mentioned the Motif acquisition. We're starting to realize the synergies from that.
Greg Guyatt: Hey, thanks, Aaron. Yeah, the 38% that we had in Q4 is obviously something we're very happy with. It is a 100 basis points improvement over the same period last year.

Speaker #2: And all of that has really been bringing down our cost per gram, which is driving those margin improvements. Also, we mentioned the Motif acquisition. We're starting to realize the synergies from that.
Speaker #2: That's a further improvement to adjusted gross margin. And then finally, when we do eventually get our EU-GMP, which we're waiting on patiently, that's going to have another positive as well because that'll drive further margin on our international business.
Greg Guyatt: That's a further improvement to adjusted gross margin. And then finally, when we do eventually get our EU-GMP, which we're waiting on patiently, that's going to have another positive as well because that'll drive further margin on our international business. So, overall, I think last year or last quarter, I guided towards margins approaching the 40% range, and that still holds. We're expecting margins to continue to grow over the course of the next year.

Speaker #2: year. Okay,
Aaron Gray: Okay, great. Thanks, Greg.
Aaron Grey: Okay, great. Thanks, Greg.
Speaker #4: great.
Speaker #5: Yeah, and just one quick
Greg Guyatt: Just one quick comment.
Peter Amirault: Just one quick comment.
Speaker #5: comment. Go
Aaron Gray: Go ahead, Peter.
Tim Emberg: Go ahead, Peter.
Speaker #2: I would say go ahead, Peter. Thirty-eight percent we were happy with, but we're not satisfied. We think there's more.
Greg Guyatt: I would say the 38% we were happy with, but we're not satisfied. We think there's more.
Peter Amirault: I would say the 38% we were happy with, but we're not satisfied. We think there's more.
Tim Emberg: Yeah, and another leverage that we have is from the commercial side of the business. Obviously, we're looking at skew rationalization and emphasizing more on our high margin categories, which is a big focus for us, but also taking price when earned. We took two different price points, price increases in fiscal 2025, and we just took another one early fiscal 2026. If you look at the overall category from a pricing perspective, price compression is only really impacting AIOs or all-in-one vapes over the past year. We've seen an increase in the ASP pricing on flower over the past year as there's this balance between supply and demand in the Canadian market, and LPs have taken price, and we're one of them. So, I think that definitely helps drive margins as well.

Speaker #5: But also taking price when earned. We took two different price points: price increases in fiscal '25, and we just took another one early fiscal '26.
Speaker #5: If you look at the overall category from a pricing perspective, price compression is only really impacting AIOs, or all-in-one vapes, over the past year.
Speaker #5: We've seen an increase in the ASP pricing on flour over the past year. As there's this balance between supply and demand and the Canadian market, and LPs have taken price, and we're one of them.
Speaker #5: I think that definitely helps to drive margins as
Speaker #5: well. Okay, that's great
Aaron Gray: Okay, that's great to hear. Appreciate the call. I'll go ahead and jump back in the queue.
Aaron Grey: Okay, that's great to hear. Appreciate the call. I'll go ahead and jump back in the queue.
Speaker #4: Good to hear. Appreciate the color. I'll go ahead and jump back into the Q.
Speaker #6: Your next question comes from the line of Brynna Cunnington with ATB Capital Markets. Please go ahead.
Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Brenda Cunnington with ATB Capital Markets. Please go ahead.
Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Brenda Cunnington with ATB Capital Markets. Please go ahead.
Speaker #7: Okay, thanks for taking our questions and hearing us on the quarter. Just continuing on the line of materializing, and with the Motif synergies approaching 40% margins next year, roughly how much of this margin improvement do you think would be from further synergies from Motif versus cultivation improvements and other improvements in just general fundamentals?
Brenda Cunnington: Hey, thanks for taking our questions and hearing us on the quarter. Just continuing on the line of thought with the Motif synergies materializing and approaching 40% margins next year, roughly how much of this margin improvement do you think would be from further synergies from Motif versus cultivation improvements and other improvements in just general fundamentals?
Brenna Cunnington: Hey, thanks for taking our questions and hearing us on the quarter. Just continuing on the line of thought with the Motif synergies materializing and approaching 40% margins next year, roughly how much of this margin improvement do you think would be from further synergies from Motif versus cultivation improvements and other improvements in just general fundamentals?
Speaker #2: Yeah, I think when you look at the scale of our month in facility and the cultivation, that's going to drive the majority of the margin improvement that we're seeing.
Greg Guyatt: Yeah, I think when you look at the scale of our Moncton facility and the cultivation, that's going to drive the majority of the margin improvement that we're seeing. I mean, look, we've already recognized a fairly significant amount of Motif synergies in the back half of last year. We do expect it to continue, but I'd say more of the synergies are going to come from operational improvements in Moncton independent from the acquisition. I mean, just the cost per gram itself is coming down, and that just drives a significant amount of margin improvement.
Greg Guyatt: Yeah, I think when you look at the scale of our Moncton facility and the cultivation, that's going to drive the majority of the margin improvement that we're seeing.

Speaker #2: I mean, look, we've already recognized a fairly significant amount of motif synergies in the back half of last year. We do expect it to continue, but I'd say more of the synergies are going to come from operational improvements in-month, independent from the acquisition.
Speaker #2: I mean, just the cost per gram itself is coming down, and that just drives a significant amount of margin improvement.
Speaker #6: Gotcha. And then, yeah, we also noticed that the yield per plant improved in the last quarter as well, so that's good to see. And then our second question is just regarding CapEx plans. You're sitting on decent amounts of cash, specifically with the restricted cash that's preserved for investment.
Brenda Cunnington: Gotcha. And then, yeah, we also noticed that the yield for plants improved in the last quarter as well. So, that's good to see. And then our second question is just regarding CapEx plans. You're sitting on a decent amount of cash, specifically with the restricted cash that's preserved for investment. Could you just run us through again some of the plans for investments in the next year?
Brenna Cunnington: Gotcha. And then, yeah, we also noticed that the yield for plants improved in the last quarter as well. So, that's good to see. And then our second question is just regarding CapEx plans. You're sitting on a decent amount of cash, specifically with the restricted cash that's preserved for investment. Could you just run us through again some of the plans for investments in the next year?
Speaker #6: Could you just run us through again some of the plans for investments in the next year?
Speaker #2: Yeah. So, last year we invested a pretty significant amount into the business—around $17 million. For fiscal 2026, we expect that to be significantly lower, less than $10 million.
Greg Guyatt: Yeah. So, last year, we spent a pretty significant amount into the business, around CAD 17 million. For fiscal 2026, we expect that to be significantly lower, less than 10. We're obviously always evaluating new opportunities for investments in the facilities, but right now, as part of what we have today, along with just sort of sustaining capital expenditures to keep advancing the business. Last year, we did look at doing an expansion in Moncton. We ultimately put that on hold because we were able to achieve those objectives through process improvement and through the LED light project. So, I'd say CapEx plans are modest for the next year, but it's something we'll continue to evaluate as opportunities come up.

Speaker #2: Last year, we did look at doing an expansion in month in. We ultimately put that on hold because we were able to achieve those objectives through process improvement and through the LED light project.
Speaker #2: So, I'd say CapEx plans are modest for the next year, but it's something we'll continue to evaluate as opportunities come up.
