David Kivitz, CEO of XS Financial commented: "2023 was a transitional year for XS Financial. We had continued revenue growth and operational performance and generated positive net distributable earnings for the year. In 2023 and the first four months of 2024, we witnessed a slowdown in our industry and, as a result, have not experienced the rate of growth from prior years. We expect a pickup in the second half of 2024, as certain state markets expand from medical to adult use."
