Exploring & expressing grief

Support groups and events, as well as creative therapies and professional counseling, are all ways in which Pathways supports individuals dealing with grief and loss.

In the press release announcing the earnings report, Urban-gro attributed the revenue decline to “a decrease in cultivation equipment systems revenue … primarily reflecting significantly reduced equipment demand in the U.S. cannabis market as a result of ongoing state-level regulatory delays in the license-awarding process, as well as the lack of movement on passing key industry financial support models such as the SAFE Banking Act.”

At the end of the quarter, Urban-gro had $18.6 million in cash, with no debt. The company’s order backlog at quarter’s end was $67 million.
