Preliminary Third Quarter 2021 Results Commentary
Revenue and same-store sales growth during the third quarter of 2021 reflects increased market share, growing demand for the Company's branded products and expansion of its medical cannabis dispensing operations, including its ‘GIVOL’ pharmacy chain. Further increases in EBITDA realized during the quarter reflect InterCure’s execution success.
Legislation of adult-use cannabis and CBD products in Israel is expected to drive further domestic demand for the Company’s products. Complementing this, solid international demand for InterCure’s GMP-branded products and easing regulation in Israel for medical cannabis exportation is expected to support the Company’s global expansion in international target markets, including Europe.
With one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry, including over $78 million in cash (more than NIS 200 million) as of September 30, 2021, and a vertically integrated and scalable seed to sell model, the Company expects to lead market consolidation.
