State Street Global Advisors Launches New Initiative to Educate Investors on the Potential Benefits of ETF Liquidity
Reading Time: 5 minutes
Initiative urges investors to look at all aspects of total cost of
ownership, where liquidity is an important consideration
BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–State Street Global Advisors, the asset management business of State
Street Corporation (NYSE: STT) and creator of the world’s first ETFs,1
today launched a new initiative aimed at educating investors about the
importance of ETF liquidity. The integrated program, which will include
thought leadership, social media promotion and advertising, launched
across the US today and is expected to run through the fourth quarter.
“We want investors to understand that liquidity attributes can have a
significant impact on the total cost of ownership, even though expense
ratio is frequently emphasized,” said Sue Thompson, head of SPDR®
Americas Distribution for State Street Global Advisors.
The first phase of the initiative called “It’s Liquidity Time” will
focus on generating greater awareness of the importance of liquidity and
the impact it can have on trading costs.
“As a leader in ETF liquidity, our strategy is to help investors make
more informed investment decisions based on our deep expertise,” said
Stephen Tisdalle, chief marketing officer of State Street Global
Advisors. “This initiative will educate investors on how their actual
portfolio costs can shift during periods of volatility and feature the
ways investors are incorporating liquidity analysis into their
strategies.”
State Street Global Advisors’ SPDR family of ETFs, like the SPDR S&P 500®
ETF (SPY) and the SPDR Dow Jones® Industrial Average ETF
(DIA), are among the most liquid in the industry comprising nearly half
of all US-listed ETF trading volume2 and include 7 out of the
10 most liquid ETFs invested in US equities.3
Liquidity’s impact on total ETF costs
“Depending on your rebalancing frequency, trading costs can
significantly accumulate and have a larger impact on the total cost of
ownership than any expense ratio difference between two ETFs. This
underscores why liquidity analysis has to be a part of any due diligence
process prior to implementation,” said Matthew Bartolini, CFA, head of
SPDR Americas Research for State Street Global Advisors.
As an example, for sector rotation strategies with a monthly rebalance,
the liquidity profile of the sector ETF used can dramatically affect the
total cost of the strategy over a one-year period. The table below
illustrates how an ETF with a higher expense ratio can be the more cost
effective option after accounting for trading costs. The less liquid,
lower fee fund actually ends up being 73 percent more expensive than the
more liquid, higher expense ratio sector ETF after a full year.
| ETF Type | Average Gross Expense Ratio % | Average Bid/Ask Spread % | Trading costs for two trades a month | Total Cost Average over One Year | ||||
| More liquid | 0.13 | 0.02 | 0.04 | 0.59 | ||||
| Less liquid | 0.10 | 0.04 | 0.08 | 1.02 |

For more information on the different use cases that are additive to an
ETF’s liquidity profile, including options and short-selling, please

adept at understanding liquidity given SPDR ETFs make up nearly half of
all US-listed ETF trading volume, have the most options open interest,
and are the most heavily shorted suite.4

Medical Cannabis Market Report 2024-2030: Asia-Pacific Set to Witness Robust Growth, Driven by R&D Discovery Initiatives
Schwazze Management to Host Conference Call Today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time
DENVER, May 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Medicine Man Technologies, Inc., operating as Schwazze, (OTCQX: SHWZ) (Cboe CA: SHWZ) (“Schwazze” or the “Company”), today announced financial and operational results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.
“We delivered another period of revenue growth in Q1 as we further refined our retail strategy while contending with the prolonged competitive challenges in Colorado and New Mexico,” said Forrest Hoffmaster, Interim CEO of Schwazze. “Throughout the quarter, we continued to sharpen our pricing and promotional efforts while enhancing the in-store experience, widening assortment, improving in-stock position, and advancing our loyalty program to attract and retain new customers. We also strengthened our wholesale business with quarter-over-quarter growth, while surpassing 30% total door penetration across both states.”
“The Colorado market remains highly competitive with more than 680 active recreational licenses, underscoring the importance of delivering an exceptional customer experience and fully integrated retail support program. Although retail pricing has recently stabilized, Colorado sales in Q1 were down 10% year-over-year due to lower volumes. Nonetheless, we significantly outpaced the market as our sales were up 9%, demonstrating the effectiveness of our operating playbook to compete in challenging environments. We expect to continue driving improvements in customer acquisition, retention, and loyalty as we further increase market share in the state.”
“In New Mexico, the proliferation of new licenses continued to outpace state cannabis sales as store count in Q1 increased 31% year-over-year while the market grew only 13%. In addition to pricing and promotional efforts, we’ve focused on driving traffic into our stores by expanding assortment with high quality flower and delivering an elevated customer experience. The New Mexico regulatory body has also increased its license enforcement efforts in recent months, contributing to more than 70 store closures and a 33% sequential decrease in net new store openings in the first quarter. We will continue to support the New Mexico Cannabis Control Division as it develops its regulatory framework.”
“Over the past four years we have rapidly scaled our footprint through 13 acquisitions, building a leading retail presence in both Colorado and New Mexico. We are beginning to see positive momentum from our pricing and promotional strategy and will remain focused on driving operating efficiencies while further optimizing our assets as we consolidate cultivation facilities and eliminate underperforming stores that do not meet our high-margin thresholds. We believe these initiatives, coupled with our operating playbook and strict cost controls, will enable us to return to stronger levels of profitability moving forward.”

First Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Total revenue in the first quarter of 2024 increased 4% to $41.6 million compared to $40.0 million for the same quarter last year. The increase was primarily due to growth from new stores compared to the prior year period, partially offset by continued pricing pressure and the proliferation of new licenses in New Mexico.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2024 was $17.9 million or 43.1% of total revenue, compared to $21.8 million or 54.6% of total revenue for the same quarter last year. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by the aforementioned pricing pressure in New Mexico, as well as higher medical sales mix in Colorado.

____________________________ |
|
1 Q4 2023 Gross Profit includes one-time, non-cash inventory adjustments of approximately $13.1 million comprised of $3.1 million of product consolidation, obsolescence, and shrinkage expenses, $4.3 million of net realizable value adjustments, and $5.8 million of fair value adjustments on acquired inventory in New Mexico in 2023. |
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2024 were $20.6 million compared to $16.2 million for the same quarter last year. The year-ago period benefitted from a payroll tax credit of $3.9M. The remaining increase was primarily driven by personnel expenses and four-wall SG&A costs associated with 21 additional stores in Colorado and New Mexico that are still ramping.
Loss from operations for the first quarter of 2024 was $2.7 million compared to income from operations of $5.6 million in the same quarter last year. Net loss was $16.1 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $1.7 million for the same quarter last year.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2024 was $7.3 million compared to $14.5 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by lower gross margin and higher operating expenses associated with the 21 additional stores that are still ramping.
As of March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents were $13.2 million compared to $19.2 million on December 31, 2023. Total debt as of March 31, 2024, was $159.7 million compared to $156.8 million on December 31, 2023.
