We proactively managed our expenses and maintained our positive adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The duration and impact of lockdowns across many of the regions we operate in , particularly in Canada , were greater than we initially anticipated for the cannabis industry and our business ; however , we believe Aphria remains well - positioned with our leading brands and market share to experience a robust increase in our top - line as the market improves . In the U.S. , we had a solid first full quarter of contribution from SweetWater even with lower on - premise sales compared to the prior year quarter as many foodservice industry establishments were still operating with limited capacity . Going forward , we are excited about the strategic opportunities for incremental growth as we look to parlay our branded consumer products into additional complementary product offerings in Canada , the U.S. and internationally . " Mr. Simon continued , " We remain excited with the opportunities created for both Aphria shareholders and Tilray stockholders in completing our proposed business combination with Tilray , and believe that together , we will create one of the strongest global cannabis and consumer packaged goods companies in the world . We expect to have a tremendous runway for long - term sustainable growth as we build upon our existing foundation in Canada and internationally by increasing the scale of our global operations . We expect Aphria and Tilray's complementary cultures of innovation , brand development and cultivation to further set us apart from others in the industry along with the strength of our balance sheet and cash availability as we enhance value for all stakeholders .
