Organigram reports $10.2 million third-quarter loss

Organigram Holdings Inc. (OGI.V) reported a third-quarter loss as revenue slipped amid lower recreational pot reorders from Ontario and British Columbia, but the cannabis company anticipated growth ahead as edibles and new retail stores come online.

The Moncton, N.B.-based licensed producer reported a $10.2-million loss for the three-month period ended May 31, compared with a profit of $2.8 million a year earlier.

Organigram's net revenue during its financial third quarter totalled $24.8 million, down from $26.9 million in its second quarter, but up from $3.4 million a year earlier -- before legal recreational cannabis sales began.

But that reading has suddenly taken a turn with his firing by his own board. What does his departure mean for Canopy Growth stock? And for the marijuana industry more broadly?

In order to properly dissect this, we need to understand how one of the biggest names in pot was so quickly dethroned.
