SNDL Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial and Operational Results

The Company Makes Significant Strategic Investments While Improving Underlying Financial Performance and Generating Record Quarterly Free Cash Flow of $20 Million

EDMONTON, Alberta, Oct. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SNDL Inc. (NASDAQ/CSE: SNDL) (“SNDL” or the “Company”) reported its financial and operational results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026. All financial information in this press release is reported in millions of Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

SNDL has also posted a supplemental investor presentation on its website, found at https://sndl.com.

The Company will hold a conference call and webcast presentation at 10:00 a.m. EDT (8:00 a.m. MDT) on Tuesday, October 27, 2026. The conference call details can be found below.

MANAGEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

Net revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was $238.0 million, representing a -2.5% decrease compared with the same period of the prior year. Cannabis Retail revenue increased by 0.7%, while Liquor Retail and Cannabis Operations revenue declined by -3.3% and -27.7%, respectively.
Gross profit of $57.9 million for the third quarter of 2026 represents a decline of $(6.3) million, or -9.8%, compared with the same period of the prior year.
Gross margin ⁽¹⁾ was 24.3% in the third quarter of 2026, a decrease of 2.0 percentage points compared with the same period of the prior year, primarily reflecting weak performance of Cannabis Operations. Both retail segments delivered strong margin expansion and reached new quarterly records.
Operating loss was $(48.3) million for the third quarter of 2026, reflecting a $52 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the Cannabis Operations segment.
Adj. operating income⁽¹⁾, which excludes impairment charges and restructuring costs, returned to positive territory at $5.2 million, an improvement of $14.8 million compared with the same period of the prior year.
Cash flow was $(50.7) million, reflecting $60.8 million of strategic investments in the U.S. and $10.0 million of additional share repurchases, consistent with our capital allocation priorities.
Free cash flow ⁽¹⁾ reached a new quarterly record of $20.0 million in the third quarter of 2026, an increase of $3.3 million, or 19.5%, compared with the same period of the prior year, including a $10.6 million benefit associated with the initial unwinding of the Company’s captive insurance arrangement.

“Our third quarter results demonstrate improvement in SNDL’s underlying financial performance, including positive adjusted operating income and record quarterly free cash flow generation,” said Zach George, Chief Executive Officer of SNDL. “Cannabis Retail delivered record quarterly revenue and gross margin, Liquor Retail also reached a new record quarterly gross margin, and our Investments segment benefited from improved results from equity-accounted investees.”

“Cannabis Operations remained below expectations and recorded a non-cash impairment. While the quarter was impacted by inventory issues arising from the first half, we are taking decisive action to simplify the portfolio, reduce costs and concentrate resources on product categories where SNDL’s manufacturing capabilities, distribution reach and retail insights can support sustainable returns. The benefits of the actions taken during the quarter are expected to begin contributing to results in the fourth quarter. In addition to these immediate actions, the Company is initiating a strategic review of the Cannabis Operations segment to assess opportunities to improve its financial performance. The review will consider a range of strategic and operational alternatives, from potential asset divestitures to larger productivity initiatives.”

“The completion of the restructuring of Surterra Holdings, Inc. (“Parallel”) in July of this year, which reduced its debt burden by approximately US$842 million, and the subsequent rights offering, which increased our indirect equity ownership from approximately 67% to 92%, represent important steps in resetting Parallel’s capital structure and providing liquidity to support inventory, product availability and critical supply-chain infrastructure. SNDL-funded investments by SunStream Bancorp Inc. (“SunStream”) in a new cultivation facility in Gainesville, Florida, are expected to enhance Parallel’s cost structure. We are excited by the opportunity presented by our investment in Parallel and are actively exploring the feasibility of transitioning our indirect economic exposure to direct ownership and consolidation of qualifying U.S. medical cannabis operations, subject to applicable legal, regulatory, accounting and Nasdaq requirements.”

“We are encouraged by the progress made toward resolving the regulatory matters involving the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (“AGCO”), which we expect will provide greater clarity for the Ontario franchise retail operations and future development opportunities, as further detailed later in this document and in the Q3 2026 Earnings Call presentation.”

“Across SNDL, our priorities remain disciplined capital allocation, improved operating performance and long-term value creation for shareholders. We have demonstrated that commitment through significant share repurchases, and we intend to remain aggressive when we believe the opportunity to acquire our shares represents an attractive use of capital. The recently announced potential $50 million substantial issuer bid (“SIB”) is a further step toward accelerating capital returns and reducing our outstanding share count,” concluded Zach George.

The Company has recast the comparative period to illustrate the impact of these allocations had they been done during the prior period, as documented in the condensed interim Financial Statements.

Liquor Retail

SNDL is Canada’s largest private-sector liquor retailer, operating as of October 26, 2026 in 165 locations, predominantly in Alberta, under its three retail banners: “Wine and Beyond” (16), “Liquor Depot” (19), and “Ace Liquor” (130).

Net revenue for Liquor Retail continued to decline year over year in the third quarter of 2026, although at a slightly better rate than in previous quarters. Persistent softness in market demand continued to affect same-store sales⁽³⁾, which decreased by -6.0% compared with the same period in the prior year.
Operating income declined year over year, driven by lower revenue, increased promotional support, and higher SG&A expenses associated with the recent Wine & Beyond store openings, partly offset by strong gross margin expansion, which reached a new quarterly record.

(3) Same-store sales is a specified financial measure that does not have standardized meanings under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. See “Non-IFRS Measures” section below for further information.

Cannabis Retail

SNDL is one of Canada’s largest private-sector cannabis retailers, operating as of October 26, 2026 in 193 locations under two retail banners: “Value Buds” (133) and “Spiritleaf” (60, of which 4 are corporate stores and 56 are franchise stores). The Company’s Cannabis Retail strategy is based on several pillars, including high-quality store locations, a broad product assortment and differentiated customer experiences. Using data and insights from a large volume of monthly transactions enables SNDL to leverage technology and analytics to inform and improve its retail strategy.

Adjusted operating income		5,284			5,047			4.7	%		9,403			10,557			-10.9	%

Net revenue for Cannabis Retail returned to growth in the third quarter compared with the same period of the prior year, consistent with the previously anticipated inflection point, and reached a new quarterly record. Market contraction in our largest provinces (ON, AB) contributed to a -3.8% decline in same-store sales. This decline was partially offset by incremental revenue from new stores and Value Buds store conversions.
Operating income increased compared with the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by gross margin expansion, which reached a new quarterly record, despite lapping a larger impairment reversal recorded in the third quarter of 2025.
Subject to completion of definitive documentation and payment of a $200,000 monetary penalty, the anticipated resolution of the regulatory matters involving the AGCO is expected to allow the Value Buds franchise network to resume growth in Ontario following a pause of more than a year during the regulatory review. While the contemplated structure is expected to result in the deconsolidation of the Ontario retail operations from SNDL’s financial statements, we expect the overall commercial arrangements to substantially preserve SNDL’s net economics associated with these franchise locations, without retaining control over the retail operations in the province.

Cannabis Operations

SNDL has a diverse brand portfolio from value to premium, emphasizing premium inhalable formats and a full suite of 2.0 products. With enhanced procurement capabilities and plans to continue evolving toward a cost-effective cultivation and manufacturing operation, the Cannabis Operations segment is a key enabler of SNDL’s vertical integration strategy.

Adjusted operating income (loss)		(11,391	)		(10,220	)		-11.5	%		(27,303	)		(16,258	)		-67.9	%

Our Cannabis Operations results remain below our expectations, and we are moving aggressively to reshape the segment into a more focused and efficient business. Most of the revenue decline in the third quarter was attributable to our exit from the unprofitable domestic dried flower category and our increased focus on higher-value products.
Profitability was impacted by a $52 million non-cash goodwill impairment reflecting current business trends, as well as $6 million in other impacts, mostly driven by inventory adjustments related to the exit from the dried flower category and Jeeter cost variances. During the third quarter, we took decisive actions to reduce manufacturing costs and other operating expenses, particularly at our Kelowna manufacturing facility, including a reduction of more than 30% of the workforce at the site. The P&L benefits of these cost reductions are expected to begin contributing to results in the fourth quarter.

Investments

As of September 30, 2026, the Company’s portfolio of cannabis-related investments had a carrying value of $485.2 million, including $467.7 million to SunStream Bancorp Inc. (“SunStream”). This carrying value was increased by $70.0 million during the third quarter of 2026, primarily driven by additional contributions to fund the buildout of the Gainesville, Florida cultivation facility, SNDL’s participation in Parallel’s rights offering, and the purchase of an incremental portion of Parallel’s debt.
On July 27, 2026, the restructuring of Parallel was completed, providing SNDL with indirect majority economic exposure to the company. During the third quarter, SNDL participated in a Parallel rights offering, while other minority holders declined to participate, increasing SNDL’s indirect equity interest from approximately 67% to approximately 92%. SNDL continues to evaluate a pathway to directly own and consolidate Parallel’s U.S. medical cannabis operations while maintaining compliance with the applicable Nasdaq requirements. Consistent with recent public-market precedents, SNDL is evaluating structures that distinguish medical cannabis operations from adult-use exposure, with the latter expected to remain outside SNDL’s consolidated operations. The Company is actively advancing this work and expects to provide further clarity as the structure and timing are finalized, subject to applicable legal, regulatory, accounting and Nasdaq requirements.
Following the completion of Parallel’s restructuring, SNDL also financed SunStream’s purchase of an additional portion of Parallel’s takeback debt at 75% of face value, increasing SunStream’s debt ownership from 39.4% to 69.4%.
The Investments segment generated $7.9 million of operating income during the third quarter of 2026, including $6.9 million from SNDL’s share of profit from SunStream’s equity-accounted investees, primarily reflecting an increase in the valuation of Parallel.
The previously disclosed restructuring process relating to Skymint continues. On April 1, 2026, the Michigan Supreme Court agreed to hear oral argument on applications for leave to appeal. The Court has not reached a decision on the merits. Timing and outcomes remain uncertain and are subject to court process and other factors.
On April 23, 2026, the United States Department of Justice and the United States Drug Enforcement Administration issued an order placing Food and Drug Administration-approved cannabis products and qualifying state-regulated medical cannabis in Schedule III of the United States Controlled Substances Act, while initiating an expedited administrative process to consider the broader rescheduling of cannabis, including adult-use cannabis, from Schedule I to Schedule III. The administrative hearing concluded in July 2026, with a final determination on broader rescheduling still pending.

Equity Position

$617.8 million of unrestricted cash, marketable securities and investments, including investments in equity-accounted investees, and no outstanding debt at September 30, 2026, resulting in a net book value of $1.0 billion.
During the third quarter of 2026, the Company purchased for cancellation 5,431,300 common shares at a weighted average price, excluding commissions, of US$1.31 per share. Year-to-date through October 22, 2026, the Company had purchased for cancellation 23,088,153 common shares, resulting in 243,320,644 common shares outstanding.
As recently communicated, the Company’s Board of Directors has directed management to pursue a possible substantial issuer bid (“SIB”) for an aggregate purchase price of up to C$50 million and at a price per share not exceeding C$1.92 (US$1.35). If completed and fully subscribed at the maximum price, the SIB could reduce the Company’s common shares outstanding by more than an additional 10%. SNDL will continue to evaluate opportunities to repurchase shares where management believes doing so is in the best interests of SNDL and its shareholders. In this context, and subject to approval by SNDL’s Board of Directors, we expect to proceed with the renewal of the share repurchase program upon its expiration on November 20, 2026, supported by continued free cash flow and potential targeted asset sales, including non-core real estate and other operating assets.

This press release is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the notes thereto for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, and the accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis. These documents are available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml.
