Market Insights Snapshot
In May 2026, XMG’s mix is overwhelmingly Beverage at 99.46% share with a 6.59% month-over-month lift, while Edible holds 0.54% share with a 44.00% month-over-month decline; the Beverage segment’s year-over-year contraction of 14.19% sits alongside an overall brand year-over-year sales change of -13.74%. Average price rose 6.60% year over year to $7.40 as Beverage averaged $7.40 and Edible averaged $7.65, indicating mix stability despite a 24-month sales change of -11.88%. The implication is that concentration in Beverage sustains revenue relevance even as year-over-year volume softens, and the sharp Edible pullback combined with rising average price points to price-led stabilization rather than category diversification.
XMG holds rank 1 in Beverage in Alberta, and with Beverage at 99.46% share alongside a 6.59% month-over-month rise, the brand’s positioning leans into category leadership rather than portfolio breadth. The -14.19% year-over-year decline in Beverage paired with a 6.60% year-over-year price increase suggests elasticity limits are being tested, while the 44.00% month-over-month drop in Edible indicates that non-core expansion is not yet contributing to share defense. The pattern implies that maintaining leadership will likely rely on defending Beverage velocity in Alberta while calibrating price and pack architecture, as diversification is currently too small to offset category cyclicality.
Competitive Landscape
XMG sits at #1 in AB Beverage in May 2026 with no YoY rank change from #1, and it also held #1 three months ago, indicating stable leadership while Mary Jones climbed from #18 to #2 and Mollo slipped from #2 to #3. While XMG peaked at #1 in May 2026, competitor momentum is uneven: Mary Jones expanded sales by 3703.6% YoY despite starting from #18, whereas Mollo contracted by 13.6% YoY and dropped to #3, and Bubble Kush advanced from #5 to #4 with 11.0% YoY growth. With XMG unchanged at #1 while a fast-rising #2 and a weakening #3 reorder the chase pack, the trajectory implies XMG’s lead is defensible short term but pressure will intensify if May 2026 momentum for Mary Jones persists.

Notable Products
Cream Soda (10mg THC, 355ml) delivered the standout surge in May 2026 with +96.7% MoM and a jump to rank 1, while Plus - CBG/THC 1:1 Tropical Cream Float Sparkling Soda (10mg CBG, 10mg THC, 355ml) slipped -8.0% MoM at rank 5. Cherry Cola (10mg THC, 355ml) advanced +17.8% MoM at rank 2, outpacing Zero - Orange Soda (10mg THC, 355ml) at +15.8% MoM and rank 3, and together they signal momentum consolidating at the very top. Eight of the top ten are Beverage SKUs, and the concentration alongside one MoM decline over -5% and three gains over +7% implies XMG is leaning into classic soda profiles to scale volume while tolerating softness in select CBG 1:1 variants.
