Aphria Inc. (APHA.TO) Heffx Top Pick
Aphria Inc. is our top pick for June. It’s a worldwide consumer packaged goods and wellness company focused on cannabis.
The company has posted stellar earnings up to now in 2020, and i believe it will still do so within the near future. The Canadian cannabis industry is due for a correction after the fallout of financing issues and COVID-19.
Last earnings, Aphria announced a 54% growth of cannabis sales quarter-over-quarter while other similar corporations are posting flat or decreased growth. i would also consider the current share price of Aphria to be undervalued based on future cashflows.
Aphria Inc. is a leading global cannabis company driven by an unrelenting commitment to our people, the planet, product quality and innovation. Headquartered in Leamington, Ontario – the greenhouse capital of Canada – Aphria Inc. has been setting the standard for the low-cost production of high-quality cannabis at scale, grown in the most natural conditions possible.
Focusing on untapped opportunities and backed by the latest technologies, Aphria Inc. is committed to bringing breakthrough innovation to the global cannabis market.
The Company’s portfolio of brands is grounded in expertly-researched consumer insights designed to meet the needs of every consumer segment. Rooted in our founders’ multi-generational expertise in commercial agriculture, Aphria Inc. drives sustainable long-term shareholder value through a diversified approach to innovation, strategic partnerships and global expansion.
