Tilray Brands (TSX:TLRY) subsidiary, Tilray Medical, has launched Redecan-branded medical cannabis in Australia.

The subsidiary is currently offering two EU-GMP-certified products under the iconic Canadian brand to patients in The Land Down Under:

The expansion strengthens Tilray’s role as a leading provider of EU-GMP-certified medical cannabis to patients, physicians, pharmacies, hospitals, governments and researchers worldwide in more than 20 countries. The company has also supported medical trials globally studying cannabis as a treatment for fibromyalgia, pediatric epilepsy, refractory pediatric epilepsy, cancer-induced nausea and vomiting, HIV, essential tremor, breast cancer disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder and alcohol-use disorders.

From a shareholder-value perspective, Tilray has almost quadrupled revenue over the past five years, generating US$210.48 million in fiscal 2020 and US$788.94 million in fiscal 2024, supported by an approximately 10x jump in gross profitability. That said, the cannabis company has been unable to translate its greater market share into net income, posting only net losses since 2020.
