  • Q1 2026 Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.3 million

All figures are reported in United States dollars ($) unless otherwise indicated

LAS VEGAS, May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (CSE: PLTH) (OTCQX: PLNH) (“Planet 13” or the “Company”), a leading vertically-integrated multi-state cannabis company, today announced its financial results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026. Planet 13’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

“Q1 was a transition quarter that reflected the cost of the strategic work we executed over the past several quarters including the California exit, the Wagon Trail consolidation in Nevada, and the disciplined cost reduction across the organisation. With that work substantially behind us, Q2 is the first quarter the repositioned company will operate without those transition costs in our results,” said Larry Scheffler, Co-CEO of Planet 13.

“The federal medical rescheduling rule that took effect in April is the most consequential development our industry has seen in over five years, and it directly benefits Planet 13's largest revenue contributor in Florida. Combined with the adult-use rescheduling proceeding scheduled for hearings in June and July, and hemp regulations taking effect through the back half of 2026, the federal landscape this business operates in has materially shifted in our favor. The structural repositioning we have executed over the past eighteen months has positioned the company to participate in that improving environment from a much stronger operating base,” said Bob Groesbeck, Co-CEO of Planet 13

Financial Highlights  Q1  2026

Operating Results

All comparisons below are to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, unless otherwise noted

  • Revenue was $21.1 million as compared to $28.0 million, a decrease of 24.8%. The decrease in sales was driven by the exit of California retail and wholesale and continued price compression in the core markets of Nevada and Florida. 
  • Gross profit was $9.4 million or 44.6% as compared to $12.0 million or 42.8%. The higher gross margin was driven by exiting California and company-wide actions to improve margins. 
  • Total expenses were $15.1 million as compared to $18.6 million, a decrease of 19.0%. Total expenses were down, driven by company-wide cost-cutting initiatives. 
  • Net loss of $8.1 million as compared to a net loss of $2.0 million. 
  • Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.3 million as compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA loss was driven by lower gross profit and operating leverage. 

Balance Sheet

All comparisons below are to December 31, 2025, unless otherwise noted

  • Cash and Restricted Cash of $16.3 million as compared to $15.6 million
  • Total assets of $146.9 million as compared to $152.3 million

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

There are financial measures included in this press release that are not in accordance with GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similarly titled measures and metrics presented by other publicly traded companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company includes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because it believes certain investors use these measures and metrics as a means of assessing financial performance. EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA before share-based compensation, the change in fair value of warrants and one-time non-recurring expenses.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods presented:
