Jefferies Maintains a Buy Rating on OrganiGram Holdings (OGI)


OrganiGram Holdings (OGI), the Materials sector company, was revisited by a Wall Street analyst today. Analyst Owen Bennett from Jefferies rated OrganiGram Holdings (OGI) a Buy, setting a C$10 price target.

Bennett said:

“OrganiGram delivered impressive Q2 results – its third consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA. Revenues, GM and EBITDA all exceeded estimates and guidance. In our initiation, we argued that OrganiGram’s recreational outlook deserved more value, and we think this is validated by that fact that its Q2 recreational sales were second only to Canopy’s. Further details on plans for vape and beverages were welcome, setting the company up well for October’s launch. Results beat consensus OrganiGram’s Q2 results were generally above consensus. Net revenues were C C$26.9m, slightly above consensus at C$25.5m and previous guidance of “at least” C$25m. Gross margin was also notably strong at 60% (cons. 59%), despite the absorption of medical excise tax, a greater mix of lower-margin recreational sales, and a scaling-up of facilities. Adj EBITDA of C$13.3m beat consensus at c.C$8m.”
