"We have been experimenting with different combinations of pricing, product deals, and advertising to determine the optimal mix to maximize gross profit. You can see this effect in September resulting in a significant pickup in average ticket and our second highest average daily revenue month. This large per day revenue number was achieved despite West Desert Inn Road, where Planet 13 is located, being under construction for most of the month. The county has added new pedestrian lights and crosswalk in front of the store to help pedestrians cross the street safely at all times," said Bob Groesbeck, Co-CEO of Planet 13. "Starting in October we will be driving additional traffic from our restaurant, café, event center and customer-facing production facility. Over the course of Q4 and Q1 2020 our internal goal is to grow sales of non-flower in-house brands to drive additional margin and create lasting brand recognition."

Phase II Update

Construction on Phase II expansion, which includes a restaurant, café, event center, and customer-facing production facility, is largely complete as of October 1st, 2019. The restaurant is expected to open on or around October 11th, 2019 pending final inspection and approval from County and Health inspectors.

The 15,000 sq. ft. customer-facing production facility is expected to begin operations on or around October 15th, 2019 pending final approval of transfer of production license from Planet 13's existing 2,000 sq. ft. production facility.
