In comparison to previous quarter, revenues grew by USD 5.0 million from $23.3 to $28.3 million. Net income between 2017 to 2018 increased from $3.6 million to $17.5 million, a 486 percent increase. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) also grew from $0.8 million to an astonishing $12.6 million over the course of one year.

These outstanding results in Q3 demonstrate the meaningful progress we’ve made on our strategic plan since becoming a publicly-traded company in September. Looking ahead, we remain focused on scalable growth, including multi-state operational expansion,” said Trulieve CEO Kim Rivers.

Just last month, the company announced the major acquisition of Leef Industries and Life Essence Inc, based out of California and Massachusetts respectively, signifying the first steps in Trulieve’s strategy of expanding into the sunshine state.

Trulieve has a history of being one of the first marijuana companies to receive an authorization to process as well as to dispense in Florida, as well as holding the distinction of being the first to open a dispensary that offered both in-store and at-home deliveries. According to Florida Politics, the management team attributed their success to their steady focus on educating the medical scene of cannabis’s potential as well as their focus on producing high-quality, high-safety cannabis products that consumers wanted.

We started with vaporizer cartridges, tinctures, and a topical cream,” Rivers said. “In hindsight, it feels minimal compared to the incredible array of products we have now. We grew our product line and the diversity of products based on what doctors and patients wanted…and likewise spent a great deal of time educating our employees thoroughly so patients would feel comfortable at every stage.”

In contrast to the news announcement, Trulieve stock saw its value decline by $1.74, a 10.61 percent decline, in a single trading session. Many companies in the cannabis market have seen multi-day declines over the past week, and despite the positive news and strong fundamentals, it appears that Trulieve remains affected by these volatile swings in the market.
