NEW YORK and LONDON and LEAMINGTON, Ontario, July 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tilray Brands, Inc. ('Tilray', 'our', 'we' or the 'Company') (Nasdaq: TLRY; TSX: TLRY), a global lifestyle consumer packaged goods company at the forefront of the cannabis, beverage, and wellness industries, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended May 31, 2025. All financial information in this press release is reported in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
Irwin D. Simon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, 'In Fiscal Year 2025, we meaningfully advanced our platform, driving growth in all of our sectors, cannabis, beverage, and wellness. Our progress is rooted in a deep understanding of evolving consumer needs, shaping offerings that not only reflect, but anticipate how people choose to eat, drink, relax, and address their wellbeing. We increased revenue, enhanced efficiency, and boosted gross profit across all our businesses. Our continued investment in growth led to record fiscal year revenue, underscoring the resilience and durability of our strategy.'
Mr. Simon added, 'Looking ahead to Fiscal Year 2026, we see key growth opportunities in cannabis, beverage and wellness. Our global infrastructure and international distribution network position us to lead as the global cannabis market expands. Our commitment to innovation across our portfolio of brands, including our AI initiatives, differentiates Tilray from the broader competitive landscape. We have the right team and the right strategy to drive growth by delivering innovative new products to our consumers and patients around the world.'
Strategic Growth Initiatives – Fiscal Year 2025
International Growth: In fiscal 2025, international cannabis revenue increased by 19%, with Q4 increasing by 71% and when excluding Australia, European cannabis revenue grew 112%. Tilray's strategic opportunities in these markets extend beyond cannabis to include beverage and wellness products. This expansion will be overseen by our newly appointed London and Dubai-based International Managing Director, Rajnish Ohri. Looking ahead to 2026, Tilray anticipates substantial growth opportunities, particularly across Europe as well as in emerging markets within the Middle East, India, Türkiye and Asia with a focus on non-alcoholic beer, beverages and hemp-based food product sales.
Tilray Cannabis Profitability: In Fiscal Year 2025, Tilray was focused on preserving gross margin and maintaining a higher average selling price in growing categories, such as vapes and infused pre-rolls, that have experienced a high degree of price compression. As part of that effort, Tilray Canada redirected inventories to international cannabis markets to capitalize on higher margins abroad. Global cannabis gross margin expanded by 700 basis points in fiscal 2025. Looking ahead to 2026, we intend to enhance our global supply chain through Phase II of our accelerated growth plan and continue to increase our cultivation footprint to support the growing demand in both the Canadian and international markets.
Tilray Beverages: In Fiscal Year 2025, Tilray strategically acquired four craft brands from Molson Coors—Hop Valley Brewing Company, Terrapin Beer Co., Revolver Brewing, and Atwater Brewery—thereby expanding its beer presence across the U.S., including market leadership in Portland and Georgia. During the third quarter, we introduced Project 420, our strategic initiative to integrate our craft beer businesses, streamline operations, and drive renewed growth. As part of our margin enhancement and profitability initiatives, we have already realized $24 million in annualized savings toward our $33 million cost-savings target announced in January 2025. Completion of the synergy optimization plan is anticipated in the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2026.
Hemp-Derived Delta-9 (HD-D9) THC Drinks in the U.S.: HD-D9 beverages reflect our strategic commitment to growth by utilizing our platform and expertise across multiple categories to introduce innovations at the intersection of cannabis, beverages, and wellness. Through our established national craft beer distribution network, we now serve customers in 13 states where the sale of HD-D9 THC drinks is permitted, reaching 1,300 distribution points. This distribution footprint positions us among the leading participants in this developing market segment.
Debt Reduction; $256 Million in Cash and Marketable Securities: Fiscal year to date, Tilray reduced its outstanding total debt by almost $100 million, further strengthening the balance sheet. As a result, net debt to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA is 0.3x. Our $256 million cash balance, including marketable securities, provides Tilray with great flexibility for strategic opportunities.
AI Strategy: Tilray Brands is dedicated to leveraging advanced technologies to align with our shareholder interests, the consumer of tomorrow, enhancing efficiency and driving growth. We are implementing AI across our global operations to enhance our expertise, optimize processes, achieve substantial improvements, and advance our business objectives. In the cultivation sector, we are utilizing advanced horticulture automation technology throughout our global greenhouse operations. By integrating this technology with AI-driven data insights, we can manage greenhouse conditions in real-time, leading to more efficient operations, increased output, superior quality, and reduced costs for resources such as labor, water, and energy.

Use of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables include non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted gross margin (consolidated and for each of our reporting segments), Adjusted gross profit (consolidated and for each of our reporting segments), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per share, free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, constant currency presentations of revenue, cash and marketable securities, net debt and net debt to adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide useful additional information to investors about current trends in the Company's operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded. They should be read only in connection with the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows presented in accordance with GAAP.
Certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not reconciled to the comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. The Company is not able to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items may include litigation and related expenses, transaction costs, impairments of intangible assets and goodwill, foreign exchange movements and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's GAAP financial results.
The Company believes presenting net sales at constant currency provides useful information to investors because it provides transparency to underlying performance in the Company's consolidated net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on period-to-period comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange markets. To present this information for historical periods, current period net sales for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average monthly exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, rather than at the actual average monthly exchange rate in effect during the current period of the current fiscal year. As a result, the foreign currency impact is equal to the current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. A reconciliation of prior year revenue to constant currency revenue the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release.

A reconciliation of Adjusted net income (loss) to net loss attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been included below in this press release.
Adjusted net income (loss) per share is calculated as net loss attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc., net; non-operating income (expense), net; amortization; stock-based compensation; change in fair value of contingent consideration; impairments of intangible assets and goodwill, Income tax recovery on impairment of intangible assets, other than temporary change in fair value of convertible notes receivable, project 420 optimization costs facility start-up and closure costs; litigation costs; restructuring costs and transaction (income) costs, divided by weighted average number of common shares outstanding. A reconciliation of Adjusted net income (loss) per share to net loss attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been included below in this press release. Adjusted net income (loss) per share is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative for GAAP net income (loss) per share or as a measure of liquidity.
Adjusted gross profit (consolidated and for each of our reporting segments), is calculated as gross profit adjusted to exclude the impact of purchase price accounting valuation step-up. A reconciliation of Adjusted gross profit, excluding purchase price accounting valuation step-up, to gross profit, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release. Adjusted gross margin (consolidated and for each of our reporting segments), excluding purchase price accounting valuation step-up, is calculated as revenue less cost of sales adjusted to add back amortization of inventory step-up, divided by revenue. A reconciliation of Adjusted gross margin, excluding purchase price accounting valuation step-up, to gross margin, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release.
Free cash flow is comprised of two GAAP measures which are net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less investments in capital and intangible assets, net. A reconciliation of net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities to free cash flow, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release. Adjusted free cash flow is comprised of two GAAP measures which are net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less investments in capital and intangible assets, net, and the exclusion of growth CAPEX from investments in capital and intangible assets, net, which excludes the amount of capital expenditures that are considered to be associated with growth of future operations rather than to maintain the existing operations of the Company, and excludes our integration costs related to HEXO and the cash income taxes related to Aphria Diamond to align with management's prescribed guidance. A reconciliation of net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities to adjusted free cash flow, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release.
Cash and marketable securities are comprised of two GAAP measures, cash and cash equivalents added to marketable securities. The Company's management believes that this presentation provides useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its short-term liquidity position by combing these two GAAP metrics.
Net debt is comprised of GAAP measures and reduces bank indebtedness, current and non-current portions of long-term debt, the principal balance of convertible debt by cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The company believes this metric provides useful information to management, analysts, and investors regarding its liquidity and the Company's ability to repay all of its debt. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is a liquidity ratio used by management and is computed as the ratio of net debt to the trailing 12 months of adjusted EBITDA defined above.
