Aurora Cannabis said its net revenue grew to C$54.2 million in its fiscal second quarter as the producer's sales accounted for 20 per cent of all marijuana sold across Canada since the drug was legalized in October. "The Canadian consumer market provides an extremely good opportunity for us. Consumer response to the legalization of cannabis has been strong," Cameron Battley, chief corporate officer, said in a conference call after markets closed.
Net revenue for the three months ended Dec. 31 increased from C$11.7 million in the second quarter of 2017. The increase was driven by $21.6 million in consumer sales in Canada and C$26 million in Canadian and international medical marijuana sales.
