Though the company eventually decided to switch things up and focus on retail cannabis, it didn&#39;t work out too well given that it was forced to build its retail presence from the ground up. The result has been consistent losses from its cannabis operations, excluding a number of one-time benefits and derivative revaluations.</p><p>The far bigger concern here for investors is the constant share-based dilution. Initially, management planned to issue shares during the fourth quarter of 2020 to pay off the company&#39;s debt. However, those share issuances haven&#39;t stopped. Though the cash raised has allowed Sundial to become something like a special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC) in the cannabis space, there&#39;s been no clear explanation as to why management kept issuing shares. Between Sept. 30, 2020, and Nov. 9, 2021, Sundial&#39;s share count rose from 509 million to roughly 2.1 billion.</p><p>With this many shares outstanding, Sundial has virtually no hope of generating meaningful earnings per share, or likely even remaining listed on the <b>Nasdaq</b> exchange without a reverse split.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bc514068ded899a817770f684369db36\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Cronos Group</h2><p>To keep the &#34;Canadian marijuana stock to avoid&#34; theme alive, the third company to shy away from in 2022 is <b>Cronos Group</b> (NASDAQ:CRON).</p><p>Cronos was another Canadian pot stock that was expected to do no wrong. In March 2019, it closed an equity investment totaling $1.8 billion from tobacco giant <b>Altria Group</b> (NYSE:MO), giving Altria a 45% stake in the company. The expectation was that this cash hoard, coupled with Altria&#39;s vast bank of knowledge when it comes to developing and marketing products, would make Cronos an instant success. However, those hopes have faded.</p><p>Altria has seen the value of its investment in Cronos Group dwindle due to a few factors. This includes Cronos&#39; sluggish expansion in Canada, multiple miscues from Canadian federal and provincial regulators, and the United States&#39; inability to legalize cannabis at the federal level. Altria is counting on federal legalization to pave a path for Cronos to enter the U.S. market.</p><p>Even more worrisome, Cronos Group filed Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in early November. This form is used by publicly traded companies that are unable to file their financial statements on time (in this case, the company&#39;s third-quarter operating results). Cronos noted that it would be taking a goodwill charge of at least $220 million, which would be in the neighborhood of three-quarters of the value it paid for the Lord Jones cannabidiol brand of beauty products. In short, the company grossly overpaid for its one large acquisition.</p><p>Like Sundial, Cronos is sitting on plenty of cash, but it remains unprofitable on an operating basis and lacks any clear catalysts.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fg.foolcdn.com%2Feditorial%2Fimages%2F659987%2Fmarijuana-cannabis-joint-weed-pot-legal-getty.jpg&amp;w=700&amp;op=resize\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"466\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>Image source: Getty Images.</span></p><h2>Canopy Growth</h2><p>The fourth and final pot stock to avoid like the plague in 2022 is yet another Canadian cannabis darling: <b>Canopy Growth</b> (NASDAQ:CGC).</p><p>Similar to Cronos and Aurora Cannabis, Canopy looked like a shoo-in for success after nabbing four combined direct and indirect equity investments from spirits giant <b>Constellation Brands</b>. At one point, Canopy had in the neighborhood of CA$5 billion in cash on its balance sheet. The expectation was for Canopy to use this capital to push into new markets (including the U.S., when federally legalized), as well as for Constellation Brands to aid Canopy with product development and logistics. But little has worked out as expected.</p><p>Due to dispensary licensing issues and the coronavirus pandemic, the ramp-up of recreational cannabis sales in our neighbor to the north has been a mess. Consumers have predominantly flocked to value cannabis products. This means that even though Canopy Growth has the leading share of Canadian weed sales, it&#39;s struggling to lift margins in a space where consumers are seeking out value brands.</p><p>Just as unnerving is Canopy&#39;s balance sheet, which featured CA$2 billion in goodwill at the end of September. This is a company that loves acquisitions -- and apparently loves overpaying for them. This CA$2 billion in goodwill represents 31% of the company&#39;s CA$6.49 billion in total assets.</p><p>And if you need one more solid reason to stay away, consider that Canopy Growth is still losing money and has continued to kick its target date for positive adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) down the road for years. The fact is that Canopy Growth is still burning through its remaining cash and should be avoided.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>4 Pot Stocks to Avoid Like the Plague in 2022</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n4 Pot Stocks to Avoid Like the Plague in 2022\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-01-18 22:13 GMT+8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/01/18/4-pot-stocks-to-avoid-like-the-plague-in-2022/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Although it's had its ups and downs, cannabis is forecast to be one of the fastest-growing industries over the next five years.
