Net revenue increased 7% versus Q2 FY2022. Net revenue decreased by 8% during Q3 FY2022 versus Q3 FY2021, as strong growth in consumer products revenue was offset by the decline in Canadian cannabis sales.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Financial Summary
| (in millions of Canadian \dollars, unaudited) | Net Revenue | Gross margin percentage | Adjusted gross margin percentage 1 | Net loss | Adjusted EBITDA 2 | Free cash flow 3 | |
| Reported | $141.0 | 7% | 13% | $(115.5) | $(67.4) | $(168.3) | |
| vs. Q3 FY2021 | (8%) | (900) bps | (1,300) bps | 86% | 1% | (24%) |
Third Quarter Fiscal 2022 Financial Summary
Net revenue of $141 million in Q3 FY2022 was a decline of 8% versus Q3 FY2021. Total global cannabis net revenue of $83 million in Q3 FY2022, represented a decline of 20% over Q3 FY2021. Other consumer products revenue of $58 million in Q3 FY2022, represented an increase of 19% over Q3 FY2021. Excluding the impact from acquired businesses, net revenue declined 17% and global cannabis net revenue declined 34% versus Q3 FY2021.
Reported gross margin in Q3 FY2022 was 7% as compared to 16% in Q3 FY2021. Excluding non-cash restructuring costs recorded in cost of goods sold and inventory step-up charges from acquisitions, adjusted gross margin was approximately 13%. Gross margin in Q3 FY2022 was further impacted by lower production output and price compression in the Canadian recreational business as well as higher third-party shipping, distribution and warehousing costs across North America. Gross margin in Q3 FY2022 benefited from payroll subsidies in the amount of $7 million received from the Canadian government, pursuant to a COVID-19 relief program.
Total SG&A ("SG&A") expenses in Q3 FY2022 declined by 19% versus Q3 FY2021, driven by year-over-year reductions in General & Administrative ("G&A") and Research and Development ("R&D") expenses partially offset by an increase in Sales & Marketing ("S&M") expenses. G&A expenses declined 47% year-over-year primarily due to reductions in staffing and professional fees and benefited from payroll subsidies received from the Canadian government in Q3 FY2022, pursuant to a COVID-19 relief program. R&D expenses declined 53% year-over-year principally due to a more disciplined approach to R&D investments. S&M expenses increased 20% year-over-year primarily due a return to more normal advertising and promotions spending in Q3 FY2022, compared to the prior year period, higher sponsorship fees associated with BioSteel's partnership deals and increased advertising expenses associated with new product launches.
Net Earnings in Q3 FY2022 amounted to a loss of $115 million, which is a $714 million improvement versus Q3 FY2021, driven primarily by lapping material non-cash asset impairment and restructuring charges in Q3 FY2021 and Other Income totaling $34 million during Q3 FY2022 mostly attributable to non-cash fair value changes of $59 million.
Adjusted EBITDA loss in Q3 FY2022 was $67 million, a $1 million improvement versus Q3 FY2021 primarily driven by the reduction in our total SG&A expenses, mostly offset by lower sales and a decline in gross margins.
Free Cash Flow in Q3 FY2022 was an outflow of $168 million, a 24% increase in outflow versus Q3 FY2021. Relative to Q3 FY2021, the Free Cash Flow outflow increase reflects higher interest paid and the timing of working capital.
Cash and Short-term investments amounted to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2021, representing a decrease of $0.9 billion from $2.3 billion at March 31, 2021 reflecting EBITDA losses, capital investments and the upfront payment made as consideration for the option to acquire Wana Brands upon federal permissibility of THC in the U.S.

| North America THC ecosystem Canopy Growth aspires to build the leading cannabis business in the US and gained momentum with plan to acquire Wana Brands ("Wana"), a leading cannabis edibles brand in North America, upon U.S. federal permissibility of THC. Wana strengthened its U.S. footprint in Q3 FY2022 signing a license agreement covering the state of Nevada, and in Q3 FY2022 saw the continued growth in popularity of Wana Quick "Fast Acting" gummies and the Optimal Fast Asleep and Fit offerings. U.S. MSO Acreage Holdings ("Acreage") strengthened its balance sheet with the recent signing of a USD$150 million credit facility to support its refocused strategy and build depth in core markets. Acreage closed the acquisition of operations in Ohio, establishing a market leadership position in the state. Canopy Growth has established dedicated internal organization to drive synergy across THC strategy, M&A, and Consumer Insight's capabilities to execute the Company's North America THC strategy to establish a scalable footprint, best-in-class products and national distribution networks required to unlock the U.S market. On December 15, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to divest all of its interest in C 3 Cannabinoid Compound Company GmbH ("C 3 ") to a European pharmaceutical company headquartered in Germany. C 3 develops and manufactures cannabinoid-based pharmaceutical products for distribution in Germany and certain other European countries.
