Avicanna Q1 2026 Revenue Rises 6% YoY To Highest Quarterly Record Amid Expanding Cannabis Portfolio
Cannabinoids-based biopharmaceutical company Avicanna Inc. (TSX: AVCN) (OTCQX: AVCNF) (FSE: 0NN) announced on Thursday record quarterly revenue of $6.68 million for the first quarter. That’s up 6% year-over-year.
The company said this is the highest quarterly revenue in its history and was driven by MyMedi.ca revenue, up 11% over the same period, and Canadian product sales, up 24%.
“The first quarter of 2026 reflects continued execution across Avicanna’s integrated commercial and pharmaceutical pipeline,” Aras Azadian, the company’s CEO, said. “We delivered record quarterly revenue, gross profit, and gross margins, driven by sustained growth in Canada, expansion of our proprietary product portfolio, and continued momentum through MyMedi.ca.”
Q1 2026 Financial Highlights
- Gross profit totaled $3.84 million, up 7% year-over-year.
- Gross margin improved to 58% compared to 57% last year.
- Adjusted EBITDA came in negative at $0.15 million, due to higher growth-related expenses and a shift away from licensing revenue, compared to an adjusted EBITDA gain of $0.43 million in the last year; and
- The working capital deficit improved, decreasing from $1.28 million to $0.32 million.
Avicanna reported increases in unit sales of its proprietary branded products, while expanding its commercial footprint across medical and adult-use channels.
The company also continued to advance its pharmaceutical and clinical strategy via new research initiatives and international expansion. During the quarter, it initiated a Phase I Dose Finding Clinical Trial with the University of Calgary. The randomized controlled trial will study the dose-dependent effects of Avicanna’s oral THC capsules on anxiety and stress.
“We continued advancing the long-term foundations of the business through international commercial activities, clinical development initiatives, and ongoing investment in our pharmaceutical pipeline,” Azadian said. “We believe the quarter demonstrates the increasing operational leverage of our platform and the growing alignment between our commercial execution and scientific strategy.”
