CEO sebastien St-Louis

Last Friday the Chief Financial Officer of HEXO Michael Monahan has resigned for family cause. This decision took everyone by surprise and many speculated on the real reasons that led to his resignation.

Although HEXO continues to claim that everything is under control and that this decision is not related to the financial statements that will come out around October 24, some analysts have been tough on HEXO by lowering their target price including Bank of America and BMO.

One reason is that they expect sales to fall by 20% every quarter, which will reduce HEXO’s projection of sales to $ 400 million for fiscal year 2020.

However, according to Cannada statistics, cannabis sales have been steadily increasing since legalization. Sales even exceeded $100 million (104) for the first time in July with over 14% increase over the previous month. The pace is not expected to decrease with the rapid growth of stores across the country and the beginning of the second phase of legalization with the edible in exactly 10 days.
