Such risks and factors include, but are not limited to, the risk that the Company’s management is unable to increase revenue generated from the 180 Smoke business organically, that the Company’s management fails to identify acquisition targets in the cannabis and vape sectors on terms satisfactory to the Company, and that the Company is unable to obtain licensing and other regulatory approvals necessary to convert the vape retail locations to cannabis dispensaries.
, a leading international provider of consumer products in cannabis, today reported its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021 .
Curaleaf launched a range of innovative new products to our retail and wholesale channels during the quarter, including our new Select Squeeze THC-infused beverage enhancer which marked our most successful product launch ever and represented one of the cannabis industry’s widest national product launches to date.
Boris Jordan , Executive Chairman of Curaleaf commented, “With the acceleration of cannabis liberalization momentum at the state and federal levels, Curaleaf’s prospects for growth in the United States have never been stronger.
Retail revenue increased by 231% to $188 million during the first quarter of 2021, compared to $57 million in the first quarter of 2020, representing 72% of total revenue.
Growth in wholesale revenue was due primarily to the continued national expansion of the Select brand in both the Central and Northeastern markets including Massachusetts , New York , New Jersey , Maryland , Illinois , and Pennsylvania , and the successful launch of new products such as Select Squeeze, Select Essentials, and Select Fresh.
Gross profit on cannabis sales was $128 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $33 million in the first quarter of 2020.
The net result was primarily impacted by an income tax provision of $31 million due to increased gross profit in certain of the Company’s subsidiaries that are subject to the restrictions of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code and, to a lesser degree, by an increase in the interest expense related to lease liabilities due to the expanded number of retail sites.
Adjusted EBITDA was a record $63 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $20 million for the first quarter of 2020.
We believe the adjusted results presented provide relevant and useful information for investors because they clarify our actual operating performance, make it easier to compare our results with those of other companies and allow investors to review performance in the same way as our management.
