“This has been my hardest day at Hexo Corp.,” said St-Louis. “While it is extremely difficult to say goodbye to trusted colleagues, I am confident that we have made sound decisions to ensure the long-term viability of Hexo. The actions taken this week are about right-sizing the organization to the revenue we expect to achieve in 2020.”
