Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 28, 2025) - Nextleaf Solutions Ltd. (CSE: OILS) (OTCQB: OILFF) (FSE: L0MA) ("Nextleaf", "OILS", or the "Company"), an innovation-driven life science company and licensed cannabis processor, is pleased to announce its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, ended June 30, 2025. The Company reported gross revenue of $3,769,797, net revenue of $2,912,572 and gross profit of $1,107,593. This marks the Company's fourth consecutive profitable quarter without normalization.
Q3 FY2025 Highlights
Positive Momentum on Revenue and Profitability:
- Gross revenue $3,769,797 million. Net Revenue $2,912,572
- Gross profit $1,107,593 million, up 25% from $884,344 in the same period last year, with a steady gross margin of 29%
- Net income $867,352 YTD, up 172% from a ($1,196,316) loss for the same period in FY24
- Positive EBITDA1 at $1,112,285 YTD, highlighting the Company's operational efficiency and disciplined cost management
The Company has streamlined its product portfolio and enhanced competitiveness through targeted SKU rationalization, strategic pricing, and brand innovation to address a softer Q3.
Competitive pressure in saturated categories like high-THC vapes and infused prerolls impacted the quarter's results. Despite this, the Company has delivered profitability (without normalization) through four consecutive quarters and remains on track to exceed FY24 revenue, net income, and adjusted EBITDA targets, driven by national leadership in wellness-forward formats including softgels and oils.
Strong Balance Sheet:
- The Company maintained $9.0 million in assets, and improved working capital closing the quarter with $5,601,524. An increase of 24% compared to year-end Sept 30, 2024.
- The Company's debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio was reduced to 0.61 and shareholder's equity held strong at $5.6 million.
The Company ended the quarter with no secured debt, underscoring continued profitability, disciplined financial management, and a strong, undiluted equity position. This provides a solid foundation for growth without over-leveraging assets.
Commercial Expansion:
- 11 new product launches under flagship brand Glacial Gold across 3 categories including: 3 softgels, 5 vapes, and 3 bottled oils with national distribution.
The Company continues to focus on delivering standardized, consistent, dose-controlled extracts with high potency and purity. National product listings have driven recent success in growing categories, including full-spectrum extracts (e.g., RSO softgels), ratio-based formulations (e.g., 1:1 vapes), and minor cannabinoids (e.g., CBG and CBN oils, softgels, and vapes), reinforcing the brand's appeal to wellness-focused adult-use consumers.
"In Q3, we rapidly refined our CPG strategy-balancing both offense and defense-to protect and grow revenue from our branded portfolio, accelerate momentum in the categories we lead, and build a foothold where we've underperformed or are just entering," said Emma Andrews, CEO of Nextleaf Solutions. "We've stayed humble, agile, and innovative under pressure, and I look forward to sharing the results of these efforts in the quarters ahead-the numbers will speak for themselves."
