Tilray also owns several breweries and is the 5th largest craft beer company in the US.

History

Founded in 2014, Tilray was originally incorporated under the umbrella of Seattle-based Privateer Holdings and was one of Canada's first licensed producers. [10] [11] At the end of 2014, it secured the first institutional investment in the cannabis industry from Founders Fund, a San Francisco-based venture capital fund. [10] In 2016, it became the first cannabis company to conduct a clinical trial approved by Health Canada. [10] The trial evaluated the therapeutic potential of medical cannabis. [10] In January 2017, Tilray was certified for good manufacturing practices. [12]

By October 2018, the company had raised $1.1 billion. [10] In July 2018, it became the first cannabis company to trade publicly on a major U.S. stock exchange, [13] opening on the NASDAQ exchange at a price of $17 per share, which increased in September 2018 to $214 per share, and then descended to $29 per share by August 2019. [14] [15] The IPO raised US$153 million. [16]

In September 2018, Tilray became the first Canadian cannabis company to legally export medical cannabis to the U.S. for a clinical trial. [17] In December 2018, the company signed a deal with Novartis subsidiary Sandoz to sell, distribute and co-brand Tilray's non-smokeable/non-combustible medical cannabis products in legal markets worldwide. [18] On June 19, 2018, Tilray announced the launch of High Park Company which operates in the adult recreational cannabis market to establish unique adult-use brands in Canada. [19]

Since September 2022, Tilray has been licensed by the Polish and Italian Ministries of Health to import and distribute THC25 medical cannabis throughout Poland and Italy. [20]

Strategic partnerships and acquisitions

In 2018, Tilray announced it had entered into global alliance with Sandoz, a division of Novartis to co-brand and distribute non-combustible medical cannabis products in global markets where it is legally authorized. The Globe and Mail dubbed this partnership as ‘big-pharma’s first foray into cannabis’. [21]  

Also in 2018, Tilray announced a $100-million joint venture with the world's largest brewer, AbInBev to research non-alcohol tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD)-infused beverages, through their respective subsidiaries, Labatt Breweries and High Park Company. [22]

In 2019, Tilray signed a $250 million revenue-sharing deal with U.S. based brand company, Authentic Brands Group, to leverage ABG brand names, such as Juicy Couture, Greg Norman, and Nine West to create cannabis products. ABG has a portfolio of over 50 brands. [23]

In February 2019, Tilray acquired Manitoba Harvest, a hemp foods manufacturer, for $317 million from Compass Diversified Holdings. [24] The acquisition allowed Tilray to use Manitoba Harvest's retail distribution network to enter the U.S. CBD market. [25] Manitoba Harvest's products are available in approximately 13,000 U.S. stores and 3,600 in Canada. [24]

Also in 2019, Tilray entered into an agreement with Natura Naturals Holdings which owns 155,000 square feet of licensed cultivation greenhouses in Leamington, Ontario. [26] The acquisition doubled the cultivation ability of the company in Canada. [27] In May 2020, Tilray announced closure of the High Park Gardens site (previously Natura Naturals) for cost reductions. [28]

In July 2019, Tilray acquired U.K.-based Smith & Sinclair to develop CBD-infused edibles. [29] In August 2019, Tilray acquired Alberta cannabis retailer, Four20. [30]

On April 10, 2023, Tilray announced an agreement to acquire Hexo Corp. for approximately US$56 million. Hexo shareholders will receive 0.4352 of a share of Tilray common stock in exchange for each share held. [31]

Merger with Aphria

On 15 December 2020, Aphria conducted a reverse acquisition of Tilray, creating the largest global cannabis company by revenue and geographic reach. [10] [8] The chief executive officer (CEO) of Aphria, Irwin D. Simon, stated that the merger strategy was to capture Tilray's business assets and public trading exposure in the United States and its free trade abilities in Europe, enabling potential for becoming a global operation. [8] Irwin was named as CEO and chairman of the board for the merged company, and Tilray CEO, Brendan Kennedy, will be a member of the board of directors. [8] The merged companies will keep Tilray's name and trade under the Tilray ticker symbol, TLRY, on the NASDAQ exchange. [8]

By combining assets, the new Tilray company will develop craft beer and cannabis-infused beverages in partnership with Anheuser-Busch InBev, and have branded hemp and cannabidiol products. [8] According to one source, the world market potential for cannabis products is $94 billion by 2025. [8]

[40] The company distributed their beer to 19 states and Washington D.C. before being purchased by Anheuser-Busch InBev on February 5, 2014, for nearly $24 million.

[48] [49] By 2014 their beer was being sold in all 50 states, as well as internationally and they purchased the Alpine Beer Company. [50] [38] The company peaked in 2016 when it was the 37th largest producer of beer in the United States, afterwards the company began a rapid decline due to the rise of rival craft beer producers. [51] In 2018 they cut distribution internationally and to 42 states and laid off 15% of their workforce and defaulted on their loans to construct the Virginia Beach facility. [52] [53] The company would be sold to a group of private investors by the end of the year, who would sell the company to Tilray in 2020. [54]
