Morgan Stanley Says a New Bull Market Is Underway — Here Are 2 Stocks to Bet on It

Despite recent economic headwinds, a resilient corporate earnings backdrop and better-than-feared data offer some optimism. Still, with July's weak jobs report and signs that inflation may remain stubborn, the big question now is: where will the markets go? Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Watching the situation from Morgan Stanley, chief US equity strategist Mike Wilson is taking an upbeat view. He believes that we're in a bull market – although he describes it as distinct from last year's run. In a recent interview with Bloomberg, Wilson opined: 'We think the bear market ended in basically April. It was a pretty nasty one. There were several along the way, and that was the final flush. And now we're in a new bull market. And capital markets activity is just another sign that that analysis or that conclusion is probably correct… Volatility in bull market or bear market is normal. I mean, you want to see some consolidation… but I want to be very clear, it's still early in the new bull market, so you want to be buying these dips… You have supportive policy, you have positive rate of change, you have good flow dynamics. I mean, those are all the ingredients you need.' With that bullish framework in mind, Morgan Stanley's stock analysts are zeroing in on stocks they believe can thrive in this bull market. We've looked into the data from the TipRanks platform to find out how the Street sees these picks; here's a closer look alongside the Morgan Stanley commentary. Dutch Bros (BROS) The first stock we'll look at is Dutch Bros, the Phoenix-based drive-through coffee chain that was founded as a family-owned pushcart business in Oregon in 1992, opened its first franchise location in 2000, and went public in 2021. The company's expansion started in the Pacific Northwest, but today the company has locations in the Southeast and is extending into the Great Lakes region. The company's menu features a wide range of drinks, from plain coffee to coffee-based specialty drinks to non-coffee favorites such as lemonade or hot chocolate. Dutch Bros also offers a range of seasonal drinks, and basic snacks including muffin tops and granola bars. An app-based rewards program lets customers earn points toward free drinks or place their orders ahead of time for pick-up. The company also offers a gift card program, both digitally and through physical cards. Dutch Bros has proven popular in the years since its founding, and the chain currently boasts 1,043 locations, both franchised and company-owned, across 19 states. The total location count includes 725 that are company-owned and operated, and another 318 that are franchised. Year-over-year, in 2Q25, the location count reflected a 14% increase from 2Q24. The company's network expansion included 113 company-owned stores, and 18 franchise stores. This expansion was reflected in Dutch Bros' quarterly financial results, which showed strong growth YoY and beat the top- and bottom-line forecasts. In the 2Q25 report, the company's revenue grew 28% year-over-year to reach $415.8 million and to beat expectations by $12.2 million. The company's non-GAAP earnings figure, at 26 cents per share, was up 7 cents per share from the prior year and was 8 cents better than had been anticipated. Dutch Bros finished Q2 with $254.4 million in cash and other liquid assets available. For Morgan Stanley analyst Brian Harbour, Dutch Bros' chief attraction is its overall strength. He wrote of the company after the earnings report, 'A strong quarter across the board from BROS continues the recent string of success for the company, and reinforces our prior confidence in the outlook, which we think sets up well into FY26. We'd expect it to support the stock after it has become modestly more debated of late. Both comps and new store productivity came in ahead of expectations again as BROS' sales drivers continue to work in concert, with the food push still ahead. This flowed through to profits, aided by G&A managed well, labor leverage, and some food cost favorability (dairy offsetting coffee), while new unit openings were aligned with our thinking and remain on track for the year.' Looking ahead, Harbour rates BROS as Overweight (i.e., Buy), with a price target of $84 that suggests a one-year upside potential of 24.5%. (To watch Harbour's track record, click here) Overall, BROS has earned a Strong Buy consensus rating from Wall Street's analysts, based on 16 recent reviews that include 15 Buys and 1 Hold. The shares are priced at $67.48 and their average price target, $82.73, implies a gain of 23% by this time next year. (See BROS stock forecast) Globe Life (GL) The second Morgan Stanely pick we'll look at is Globe Life, one of the many firms that together form the backbone of the US insurance industry. Globe Life has been in business since 1900, and today has a market cap of nearly $11.6 billion. While there are much larger firms in the US insurance sector, Globe still has a large footprint – in 2024, the company paid out a total of $1,856,086,935 in claims. The figure included more than $1 billion in life insurance claims, and another $781 million-plus in health insurance claims. Life insurance forms the core of Globe's business; as the company tells its customers, these policies exist to protect families from financial stress at the worst of times. In addition to traditional life insurance policies, the company also offers mortgage protection insurance, designed to protect family homes as well as financial assets. Outside of life insurance, Globe also offers supplemental health insurance policies, including coverage for cancer treatments, critical illnesses, hospital and ICU stays, and accidents. Included in the company's health coverage line-up are Medicare supplemental policies, to back up the coverage offered under the government program. Globe also offers business plans, providing coverage for employees under various life and medical policies. In the past two years, Globe Life has faced headwinds in the form of government investigations – by both the SEC and the DOJ. Both investigations focused on claims of misleading or fraudulent sales practices – but in July of this year, the company announced that both the SEC and the DOJ had closed their cases without taking or recommending enforcement action. The closure of these investigations eased worries about uncertainties toward GL's share performance, and the stock has gained 15% in the last 30 days. Globe Life reported its 2Q25 results last month, and the results were mixed. The company had total revenue of $1.48 billion, for a 3% year-over-year gain – although it missed the forecast by almost $25 million. Globe's bottom line, the net operating income per diluted common share, came in at $3.27, a total that was 2 cents better than the estimates and was up from the figure of $2.97 per share reported for 2Q24. Bob Huang covers this stock for Morgan Stanley, and he sees the easing of investigatory pressures as the key point for Globe Life. 'The multiple contraction last ~18 months was due to DOJ and SEC investigation on sales practices and uncertainties around Health segment earnings. With these headwinds recently removed, we believe the thesis should shift back to fundamentals and steady earnings growth. As such, we believe the relative earnings certainty, and capital light business model should support long term share price appreciation. We see a path for the multiple on Globe Life shares to expand from 9.5x back to the historical 11.0x average,' Huang noted. These comments support Huang's Overweight (i.e., Buy) rating on GL shares, while his $166 price target points toward an upside potential of 19% on the one-year horizon. (To watch Huang's track record, click here) The Strong Buy consensus rating on GL is derived from 10 reviews with a lopsided split of 9 Buys and 1 Hold. The shares are currently trading for $139.05 and the $156.11 average price target indicates a 12% upside potential in the next 12 months.

Organigram Reports Record Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Organigram Global Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), (the 'Company' or 'Organigram'), Canada's #1 cannabis company by market share 1, is pleased to announce its record results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2025 ('Q3 Fiscal 2025' or 'Q3'). Q3 FISCAL 2025 HIGHLIGHTS Record Gross Revenue: $110.2 million (+73% year-over-year, +7.2% sequential). Record Net Revenue: $70.8 million (+72% year-over-year, +7.9% sequential). International Revenue: $7.4 million (+208% year-over-year, +21% sequential). Adjusted EBITDA 2: $5.7 million (+64% year-over-year, +16% sequential). Free Cash Flow 2: $5.0 million versus ($4.8) million in the prior year period. Motif Synergies: $4.2 million to date, approximately $11 million annualized; on track to hit $15 million target within 24 months of acquisition. Total Cash: $85.9 million 3, including $35.9 million of unrestricted cash; and negligible debt. #1 Market Share in Canada: #1 in vapes, #1 in pre-rolls, #1 in milled flower, #1 in concentrates, #3 in edibles, #3 in dried flower 1. Canadian Beverage Growth: Expanded distribution in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. U.S. Expansion: Began generating U.S. revenue, expanded distribution into new states and gained important key account listings; launched U.S. DTC (direct-to-consumer) website expanding hemp-derived THC beverage availability to 25 states subsequent to quarter end. Record Moncton Harvest: of 24,210 kilograms, driven by capacity enhancing projects and seed-based cultivation; entire Moncton facility harvest averaged over 29% THC potency. 'In Q3, we delivered our second consecutive quarter of record revenue driven by the acquisition of Motif, Collective Project, and a further optimization of our product and brand portfolio,' said Beena Goldenberg, CEO of Organigram. 'With our strong Canadian market leadership now in place, we are committed to bringing our Canadian successes, underpinned by innovation and a commitment to quality, to international markets. We have grown our export business, expanded into the US, and are set to launch new brands internationally, all building towards our ambition of becoming a truly global cannabis player.' THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2025 FINANCIAL OVERVIEW Net revenue: Net revenue increased 72% to $70.8 million, from $41.1 million in the third quarter ended June 30, 2024 ('Q3 Fiscal 2024'), primarily driven by contributions from the Motif Labs Ltd. ('Motif') acquisition and increased international sales. Adjusted gross margin 2: Adjusted gross margin was $24.2 million, or 34% of net revenue, compared to $14.6 million, or 36%, in Q3 Fiscal 2024. Organigram's standalone adjusted gross margin excluding Motif was approximately 37% in Q3. Management expects adjusted gross margin to improve over the coming quarters as Motif acquisition-related synergies are realized. Selling, general & administrative ('SG&A') expenses: SG&A increased 70% to $24.5 million from $14.4 million in Q3 Fiscal 2024. The increase was attributable to the inclusion of Motif SG&A in Organigram's consolidated financials as well as higher trade investments to support the growth of the business. As a proportion of net revenue, SG&A remained flat at 35%, compared to 35% in Q3 Fiscal 2024. Included in SG&A was an incremental investment of $1.2 million into ERP versus the prior year and higher amortization of $1.6 million associated with Motif and Collective Project Limited ('Collective Project') acquisitions. Net loss: Net loss was $6.3 million compared to net income of $2.8 million in Q3 Fiscal 2024. The decrease in net income from the prior period is primarily attributable to higher fair value changes recognized in relation to the preferred shares and top-up-rights held by British American Tobacco p.l.c ('BAT'), and other financial instruments. Adjusted EBITDA 4: Adjusted EBITDA was $5.7 million compared to $3.5 million in adjusted EBITDA in Q3 Fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to higher recreational revenue, including Motif contributions, and higher international revenue. Net cash from operating activities: Net cash from operating activities was $14.6 million, compared to cash used of $3.7 in Q3 Fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to improved working capital utilization. 'In Q3 we delivered solid revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth sequentially and year-over-year while making significant progress toward the full integration of our recent acquisitions,' said Greg Guyatt, CFO of Organigram. 'As our business continues to scale domestically and abroad, and the realization of cost synergies related to our Motif acquisition begin to positively impact future earnings, we are confident in our trajectory toward sustained profitability and free cash flow in the near-term.' CANADIAN RECREATIONAL MARKET INTRODUCTIONS As Canada's market leader in recreational cannabis, Organigram remains committed to delivering consumer focused innovations and products to its customers. Some notable recent highlights include: SHRED Max10 Party Pack: Ten individual 10mg gummies separately packaged within a container to provide consumers with 100mg THC per container. Big Bag O' Buds: New strains in Blueberry Dream, UK Cheddar Cheese, and Comboz (Ultra Sour & Blueberry Dream). SHRED Flower Power: The return of the OG SHRED blend — A sativa blend boasting strong sweet and floral aromas. BOXHOT IPRs: Pear Herer & Strawberry Diesel infused pre-rolls. Trailblazer Blunts: Tube-style blunts wrapped in tea leaf-based blunt paper for a smooth and unique flavour profile. Rizzlers Vapes: Lime Frizz & Passion Plunge all-in-one switch-hit vapes. INTERNATIONAL SALES In Q3 Fiscal 2025, Organigram achieved $7.4 million in international sales compared to $2.4 million in the same prior year period, and expects to continue growing its international sales over time. Organigram continues to await EU-GMP certification for its Moncton facility. In Q3 Fiscal 2025, Organigram began generating U.S. recreational revenue from hemp-derived THC beverage pursuant to the acquisition of Collective Project.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures This news release refers to certain financial performance measures (including adjusted gross margin, adjusted gross margin %, adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow) that are not defined by and do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Non-IFRS financial measures are used by management to assess the financial and operational performance of the Company. The Company believes that these non-IFRS financial measures, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, enable investors to evaluate the Company's operating results, underlying performance and prospects in a similar manner to the Company's management. As there are no standardized methods of calculating these non-IFRS measures, the Company's approaches may differ from those used by others, and accordingly, the use of these measures may not be directly comparable. Accordingly, these non-IFRS measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure that the Company defines as net income (loss) before: net of financing costs; income tax expense (recovery); depreciation, amortization, impairment, normalization of depreciation add-back due to changes in depreciable assets resulting from impairment charges, (gain) loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment (per the consolidated statement of cash flows); share-based compensation (per the consolidated statement of cash flows); share of loss (gain) from investments in associates including impairment loss; change in fair value of contingent consideration; change in fair value of derivative liabilities, other financial assets and preferred shares; expenditures incurred in connection with research and development ("R&D") activities (net of depreciation); unrealized gain on changes in fair value of biological assets; realized fair value on inventories sold and other inventory charges; provisions and net realizable value adjustments related to inventory and biological assets; government subsidies, insurance recoveries and other non-operating expenses (income); legal provisions (recoveries); incremental fair value component of inventories sold from acquisitions; ERP implementation costs; transaction costs; share issuance costs; and provision for expected credit losses . Adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide a proxy for the Company's operating cash flow and derive expectations of future financial performance for the Company, and excludes adjustments that are not reflective of current operating results. Adjusted gross margin is a non-IFRS measure that the Company defines as net revenue less cost of sales, before the effects of (i) unrealized gain on changes in fair value of biological assets; (ii) realized fair value on inventories sold and other inventory charges; (iii) provisions and impairment of inventories and biological assets; and (iv) provisions to net realizable value. Adjusted gross margin % is calculated by dividing adjusted gross margin by net revenue. Management believes that these measures provide useful information to assess the profitability of our operations as they represent the normalized gross margin generated from operations and exclude the effects of non-cash fair value adjustments on inventories and biological assets, which are required by IFRS. Free Cash Flow is a non-IFRS measure that the Company defines as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less the purchase of property, plant and equipment. Management believes this measure is a useful indicator of the Company's capacity to fund operations from internally generated cash flows, without the need for additional borrowings or use of existing cash reserves under normal operating conditions. The most directly comparable measure to adjusted EBITDA, calculated in accordance with IFRS is net income (loss) and beginning on page 5 of this press release is a reconciliation to such measure. The most directly comparable measure to adjusted gross margin calculated in accordance with IFRS is gross margin before fair value changes to biological assets and inventories sold and beginning on page 5 of this press release is a reconciliation to such measure. The most directly comparable measure to Free Cash Flow is net cash and restricted cash provided by (used in) operating activities, and beginning on page 5 of this press release is a reconciliation to such measure.

Canlan Reports Q2 Revenue Growth and Expansion of Game Deck(TM)

Burnaby, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 13, 2025) - Canlan Ice Sports Corp. (TSX: ICE) (the 'Corporation') today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Overview of Q2 2025 Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Results [This table cannot be displayed. Please visit the source.] [This table cannot be displayed. Please visit the source.] Second Quarter Results (three months ended June 30, 2025 compared with three months ended June 30, 2024) Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 Results (six months ended June 30, 2025 compared with six months ended June 30, 2024) 'The first half of 2025 has been an exciting and productive time for Canlan Sports. Not only did we surpass both our prior year's performance and our internal targets for league registrations, but we also saw major strides in the realization of key strategic investments. From restaurant renovations and the launch of Game Deck to the expansion of our turf fields at Canlan Sports - Libertyville, our teams have worked tirelessly to enhance our facilities and customer experience. The early results have been encouraging, and we remain committed to elevating every touchpoint of our guests' journeys through these new amenities,' said Joey St-Aubin, President and CEO of Canlan Sports. Dividend Policy Canlan's Board of Directors has approved the continuation of the Corporation's quarterly dividend policy. As such, the Board declared eligible dividends totaling $0.03 per common share that will next be paid on October 15, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business September 30, 2025.
