Planet 13 Announces Q3 2026 Financial Results


Date:

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq)
  • Q3 2026 Revenue of $23.1 million
  • Q3 2026 Net loss of $6.4 million
  • Q3 2026 Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.2 million

All figures are reported in United States dollars ($) unless otherwise indicated

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (CSE: PLTH) (OTCQX: PLNH) (“ Planet 13” or the“ Company”), a leading vertically-integrated multi-state cannabis company, today announced its financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2026. Planet 13's financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

"Revenue increased for the second consecutive quarter, up 1.0% sequentially, led by a 15.1% quarter-over-quarter increase in Florida, where revenue was 45% higher than in the prior-year quarter. The levers we have been pulling in Florida are showing up in the numbers driven by better flower out of our upgraded cultivation, a fuller product lineup with BHO concentrates now on shelf, and a more productive store network. In Nevada, lower tourist traffic in Las Vegas continued to weigh on the Superstore and we are focused on local marketing event-driven promotions to bring customers through the door,” said Larry Scheffler, Co-CEO of Planet 13.

“We delivered a second consecutive quarter of revenue growth and Adjusted EBITDA improvement, and our focus remains on running the business well and executing a smooth path to closing for our stockholders, employees, patients and customers. With the Form S-4 declared effective on November 2, our stockholders will vote on the proposed merger with Vireo Growth at a special meeting on December 10, 2026. The rationale for the combination is unchanged: this market increasingly rewards scale, purchasing power, distribution and balance sheet strength, and the merger gives Planet 13 stockholders a stake in a larger, more efficient combined company that is better positioned to compete than we would be on our own,” said Bob Groesbeck, Co-CEO of Planet 13.

Financial Highlights – Q3 – 2026

Operating Results

All comparisons below are to the quarter ended September 30, 2025, unless otherwise noted

  • Revenue was $23.1 million as compared to $23.3 million, a decrease of 0.8%. Revenue increased 1.0% from $22.9 million in Q2 2026, driven by a 15.1% sequential increase in Florida, where revenue was up 45% year over year. The year-over-year decrease was driven by the exit from California retail and wholesale and lower revenue in Nevada, where reduced tourist foot traffic at the Las Vegas Superstore and continued pricing pressure weighed on results.
  • Gross profit was $13.0 million or 56.2% as compared to $5.0 million or 21.3%. The higher gross margin was driven by exiting California wholesale, cost reductions in Nevada cultivation, improved third party procurement in Nevada and a $1.1 million reduction in Company's inventory reserve.
  • Total expenses were $17.5 million as compared to $46.2 million, a decrease of 62.1%. The prior-year period included a $29.8 million impairment loss. Excluding the impairment last year, and $2.4 million of professional fees related to the proposed merger and a one-time legal settlement in the current period, total expenses decreased 7.4% to $15.1 million, reflecting strong cost control.
  • Net loss of $6.4 million as compared to a net loss of $44.0 million, which included the $29.8 million impairment loss.
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.2 million as compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $4.1 million. The improvement was driven primarily by higher gross margin and strong cost control.

(1) The Company discloses adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to provide investors with insight into the performance of the Company. This measure is not defined under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the financial measures provided by the Company in accordance with GAAP. Refer to additional information under the heading“Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA” at the end of this release regarding non-GAAP supplemental disclosure and its reconciliation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

There are financial measures included in this press release that are not in accordance with GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures and metrics presented by other publicly traded companies.

The Company includes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes certain investors use these measures and metrics as a means of assessing financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA before share-based compensation, the change in fair value of warrants and one-time non-recurring expenses.
