Avoid Canopy Growth

Summary:

  • Canopy Growth’s stock has significantly declined due to high debt, negative cash flow, and underwhelming financial performance, with a potential to drop to $1.
  • The company’s revenue and EBITDA have been disappointing, and analysts’ projections for FY25 and FY26 remain weak.
  • Despite some improvement in adjusted EBITDA, Canopy Growth’s valuation is too high compared to peers like Organigram and Cronos Group.
  • Investors should consider better-valued and financially stronger cannabis stocks, as Canopy Growth’s outlook remains bleak amidst ongoing financial struggles.
