Year-over-year revenue increases for May 2021 at Oasis were driven largely by a substantial increase in order volume. The dispensary processed 22,576 transactions in the month of May 2021 - a 59.9% increase over May 2020. As operating restrictions due to COVID-19 were steadily loosened throughout the month, the dispensary has been able to expand in-store capacity while continuing to heavily promote delivery, curbside, and in-store pick up services. Average tickets at the dispensary also rose by 1% in May 2021, year-over-year, and by 39.3% over May 2019. Oasis expects to see continued growth through the summer in tandem with a drastic increase in tourism to Las Vegas and even more operating restrictions lifted in June 2021.
"We did a tremendous job of establishing ourselves with the local community through 2020, and now that Las Vegas is expecting to see record tourism growth, our ceiling just keeps getting higher," noted Company President and COO Andrew Glashow. "We've seen what City Trees and Oasis can do when faced with immense challenges - now that we're becoming less restricted in our operations, we'll find out what we can truly accomplish through the remainder of 2021."
At the Company's production division, City Trees, monthly revenue for May 2021 increased by 231.6% year-over-year, and by 80.6% over May 2019. Gross margin for this division was 61.5%. In May 2021, the Company also announced the brand's expansion into New Mexico's medical cannabis market with its award-winning agave-based tinctures, which currently hold the #1 position in the tincture category in Nevada. Production of these products in New Mexico began with partner company, Herbal Edibles Inc., in May 2021. The brand anticipates continued growth in coming months, with multiple new product releases scheduled for the first fiscal quarter of 2021 and new licensing agreements expected to materialize later this year.
