Tilray’s Valuation

While Tilray enjoys a lengthy growth runway, backed by current growth momentum, it still needs to grow into its valuation. While the company is profitable on a forward EBITDA basis, it is not expected to turn a GAAP net profit for the foreseeable future.

The EV/forward revenue ratio is pretty attractive at just 7.9, but the EV/forward EBITDA ratio is still quite high at 67.8. Fortunately, growth is expected to be strong over the next several years, with EBITDA expected to surge by 197.4% in 2021, 129.5% in 2022, and 66.9% in 2023.

Wall Street’s Take

From Wall Street analysts, Tilray earns a Moderate Buy consensus rating based on four Buy ratings, six Hold ratings, and zero Sell ratings in the past three months. Additionally, the average TLRY price target of $19.33 puts the upside potential at 44.6%.

Summary and Conclusions

Tilray is enjoying rapid growth, thanks to its strong presence in a dynamic-growth industry. EBITDA is expected to soar over the coming years, making the 67.8 EV/forward EBITDA ratio more palatable than it might otherwise appear.

Furthermore, Wall Street analysts are generally bullish on the stock. As a result, the current valuation looks pretty attractive. The stock looks like it could be a good buy.
