On December 13, 2023, Canopy Growth Corporation announced a share consolidation plan. The company stock will be split at 1:10, effective December 20, 2023.

Canopy Growth Recent Performance

Canopy Growth Corporation was once renowned as the leading stock on Wall Street for those seeking exposure to the cannabis industry. However, investors have lost hope after years of huge losses.

CGC stock was significantly boosted when cannabis was legalized in Canada in late 2018, soaring to $50 per share. However, those gains were short-lived, and the stock has slid downward. The stock gained some traction in September after a bipartisan group of US Senators voted to advance the SAFER Banking Act to protect banks handling cannabis-related transactions. However, the bill failed to pass, which has dampened investor confidence in CGC stock.

Canopy Growth Earnings Report

Canopy Growth Corporation released its Q2 2024 earnings report on November 9, 2023. The results were disappointing for investors. It reported an EPS of -$0.21, missing investor estimates by 94.82%. In the past four quarters, Canopy Growth beat estimates only 25% of the time. Its reported revenue of $69.6 million missed investor estimates by 16.37% and declined 20.86% year-on-year.

CGC Stock Forecast

Stock analysts give Canopy Growth Corporation stock a sell rating. They predict a high of $3.20 and a low of $0.50 for the stock. Their average price target for the stock is $1.34, a 139.29% upside based on the current price of $0.580 during early morning trading.

Should you Buy CGC Stock?

While Canopy Growth markets itself as a cannabis company, most of its revenue has been from its BioSteel beverage line. However, on December 1, 2023, the company announced that it was selling its BioSteel business division to focus on its core business of selling cannabis. Consequently, the company has lost its most significant revenue stream. Based on the available data, the sell rating by analysts is accurate.
