$GTBIF Earnings - My Takeaways:

1. Strong beat across the board. 4Q revs/EBITDA up 2.3x/4.7x yoy, mostly organic. 37% EBITDA margin. Positive on a GAAP net income basis for 2nd straight qtr. 4th straight qtr of positive cash from ops. Execution continues to be v. strong.
...
2. 54 disp open rn; looking to hit the cap where they can. Driving deep into their core markets
3. CPG mix continues to increase on a net basis from 26% in 1Q to 32% in 4Q.
4. Sounds like they pulled forward a little revenue in 4Q from 1Q21
...
5. Company invested $110-120M of capex in 2020. "Will go bigger" in 2021
6. Company doesn't think AZ is as attractive as their other markets. I recently heard @Bkov9 say something similar about FL. Interesting given other MSOs are aggressively investing in these two states
...
7. CA strategy is "about learning." Sounds similar to $TCNNF acquiring a single unit in CA
8. Company "obsessed with driving down cost of capital." Very ROI and shareholder return focused
9. Quote: "the way we run the business is as an optionality machine"
...
10. Doesn't sound like Company will be provided guidance anytime soon
11. When asked what impact stimulus will have on the business CEO responded: "as simple as they will buy more weed"
...
Overall, great qtr out of $GTBIF. Given the results and consistent message around maximizing ROI/shareholder return, its no surprise why the company is viewed as the "highest quality" operator and early institutional favorite.

P.S. I forgot the fun fact:

IL collected more tax revs from cannabis than alcohol in Feb 21. Wow.

This morning, $TCNNF completed its acquisition of $HRVSF. A big moment for the company, and congrats to @rivers_kim and team for closing the deal in under 5 months. Some highlights and thoughts from their call this morning:

...
1. PF company is the largest and most profitable MSO (by a small amount on revenue and by a meaningful amount on Adj. EBITDA)
2. PF Company has 149 stores (37% more than nearest comp) and 3.1mm sq. ft. of cultivation (~2mm is in FL)
3. Core markets: FL, AZ, PA
...
4. The biggest new (and positive) thing on the call was that the PA regulator did not require any divestitures. The PF company will have 15/16 open stores in PA with the opportunity to have up to 21 stores. They will also hold 3 cultivation licenses

Merger Monday! Quick thoughts on $TCNNF / $HRVSF deal:

1. Announced price of $4.79 implies ~$2.1bn equity value and $2.25Bn EV for $HRVSF.
2. Multiples matter in M&A. $TCNNF was trading at 10.5x 22 EBITDA and is buying $HRVSF for 15.5x 22 EBITDA...
3. Its reasonable to ask if $TCNNF overpaid for $HRVSF, but also easy to understand why it is strategic. Combined entity has instant scale in FL, AZ, and PA, and gives $TCNNF something to work with in several other states...
4. Lot of questions this morning on regulatory process and caps. $TCNNF said they think there is a path to preserve value in what they bought, which I interpret to mean that if they have to divest assets/licenses they will be able to recoup value. Really only matters in PA...

$VRNOF Earnings - My Takeaways:

1. Strong headline numbers on their first ever qtrly report. Total revs in 2020 up ~200% on PF basis and +247% for Verano standalone and +134% for AltMed (FL) standalone. Mostly organic per my understanding
...
2. Margins were very impressive. 63% PF GMs and 48% PF EBITDA margins. Looks like Verano standalone EM was 45% and AltMed was 53.5% in 2020. These are $TCNNF level margins with a more diversified footprint. EBITDA recon. looked fairly clean to me. There were some ??s on that...
3. Core states: IL, FL, AZ, NJ, PA, OH, MD. Company executing on capacity expansions in most of these states and deepening retail footprint throughout. Recent M&A and commentary suggests they aren't done in AZ and PA. I anticipate they will acquire cultivation in PA before YE

$TCNNF Earnings - My Takeaways:

1. Solid beat on revs and EBITDA
2. Now selling 1 ton of weed/week(!)
3. Dominant position in FL = v strong financial metrics. 2020: 74% GM, 48% EBITDA margin, GAAP EPS of $0.53, CFO positive. Can't be overstated how strong these metrics are
...
4. In particular, I'm impressed by the magnitude of GAAP EPS. The company generated GAAP profits (and ~$100M of CFO) AFTER paying a 60% effective tax rate in 2020. Folks got excited about $GTBIF's GAAP profitability last week - $TCNNF easily beating that bar
...
5. We should expect some margin dilution over the next 24 months as the company ramps operations outside of FL. Unlikely $TCNNF will be able to achieve such high margins outside of FL so expect blended margins to mix down (not a negative, just math)
...

$CCHWF Earnings - My Takeaways:

1. Strong quarter, with highest qtrly EBITDA ever. Key part of the "improving profitability" story
2. Top markets in 4Q: CO, MA, PA, OH, IL
3. CA and FL should be big drivers in 2021
...
4. On CA, company is a real believer in the market (unlike most of the MSOs). CC looking to build regional density and scale accordingly. Company also looking to be a major wholesale player
...
5. On FL, $CCHWF believes it will be one of their best markets. Company working hard here including launching edibles (2021) and driving operational efficiencies. Sees a lot of "white space" in FL, which I see as a positive readthrough for $TCNNF (and others)

$AYRWF earnings - my takeaways.

1. Micro misses on 4Q revs and EBITDA but the execution continues to be v strong. 48% organic growth
2. EBITDA margins ticked down due to investments as the company prepares to integrate assets and build foundation for future growth.
...
3. $AYRWF mgmt are high quality operators. The 5 NV dispensaries in 4Q generated $21.3MM run-rate revs each(!). MA disp run-rate grew to $11.8MM from $10.1MM in 3Q. MA wholesale grew 109% yoy and 22% qoq. NV performance likely tough to replicate but strong foundation
...
4. Company delivered its 7th straight qtr of positive EBITDA and 6th straight qtr of positive CFO. FCF was $22MM for the year...
5. Great year but, the $AYRWF story is a 2021 and 2022 story, on that front...
