Tilray Inc. shares fell 7.5% in post-market trading after the cannabis company reported a wider-than-expected second-quarter loss.

Although revenue of $45.9 million was ahead of the consensus estimate of $40.3 million, investors appeared to focus on the $17.9 million loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. That was wider than the $14.4 million expected by analysts and comes as pot investors are increasingly focused on profitability.
