Village Farms International and Emerald Health Therapeutics Announce Cannabis Cultivation License for 1.1 Million ft2 Delta 3 Greenhouse Operation

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES/

– Unmatched Experience and Expertise and Optimized Facility Design Will Support Continuous Production and

Consistent Quality and Supply –

VANCOUVER, March 5, 2018 /CNW/ – Village Farms International, Inc. (Village Farms) (TSX:VFF) (OTCQX:VFFIF) and Emerald Health Therapeutics, Inc. (Emerald) (TSXV: EHT; OTCQX: EMHTF) today announced that Health Canada has issued a Cultivation Licence for their co-owned Delta 3 greenhouse operation (the “Joint Venture”) under Canada’s Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (“ACMPR”). This optimally-designed 1.1 million ft ² cannabis growing facility is located in one of the best growing climates in Canada in Delta, BC, and is conservatively projected to produce 75,000 kg of quality cannabis annually at full production.

Village Farms and Emerald aim for the Joint Venture to be one of the most consistent and reliable suppliers of quality cannabis products to wholesalers, distributors and retailers across Canada and internationally, with the goal to be the low-cost cannabis Canadian producer at an all-in production cost of less than $1.00 per gram at full production.

The Joint Venture will immediately begin cultivating cannabis in the Delta 3 greenhouse following the transfer of existing starter plants from Emerald and expects to receive its Sales License under ACMPR by July 1, 2018.

“Growing any agricultural crop on a large scale and repeatedly delivering expected quantities and consistent quality, with full regulatory compliance, at a competitive price is an extremely challenging proposition for even the most experienced agricultural producers. The goal is for the Joint Venture to set the standard in this regard in the Canadian cannabis industry and establish itself as a preferred supplier for both the short- and long-terms,” said Michael DeGiglio, CEO, Village Farms International. “In addition to production ramp-up, in 2018 the Joint Venture will focus on product development and developing its marketing strategy to become a vertically integrated leader in the Canadian cannabis market.”

“Our Joint Venture is well positioned to be a leading supplier in the imminent legal adult-use Canadian cannabis market, with potentially significant benefit to each of our companies and our shareholders,” said Avtar Dhillon, MD, Executive Chairman of Emerald. “With Emerald’s in-depth cannabis expertise, Village Farms’ know-how based on innumerable crop cycles over 30-years of large-scale greenhouse growing, and working with global agricultural leaders and high-tech facilities and systems experts, we configured this greenhouse for continuous weekly harvesting year-round, maximum operating efficiencies, and flexibility to adapt to an evolving market. We are accomplishing this on a very capital-efficient basis.”

The Joint Venture is converting the Delta 3 greenhouse operation to cannabis production with meticulous attention to the growing environment and systems, processing areas, and production ramp up, with a particular focus on management of climate and contaminants, optimizing yield, maximizing efficiencies, and achieving continuous year-round production. Key elements of the design, conversion, and operations include:

Conversion of the first 250,000 ft ² section of the 1.1 million ft ² Delta 3 greenhouse to cannabis production is substantially complete and is expected to commence production in April 2018. Senior growing and operational personnel, including the established team transferred from Village Farms, are in place for production ramp-up. Conversion of the remainder of the 1.1 million ft ² is underway and the entire facility is expected to be in production in 2019.

The Joint Venture holds options on two additional state-of-the-art greenhouses owned by Village Farms (Delta 2 and Delta 1, with 1.1 million ft ² and 2.6 million ft ² of growing capacity, respectively). Exercising these options would expand the Joint Venture’s production facility to 4.8 million ft ² and make it one of the largest cannabis producers in Canada.

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMPANY

History

The Company’s predecessor, the Fund, completed its initial public offering as an income trust on December 23, 2003. The Company converted from an income trust to a publicly-traded company on December 31, 2009 as part of the Conversion. In connection with the Conversion, the Company changed its name to Village Farms International, Inc.

As of the date hereof, the Company has 42,447,613 Common Shares and no Special Shares issued and outstanding.

The Company’s premium product is grown in sophisticated, highly intensive agricultural greenhouse facilities located in British Columbia and Texas and is marketed and distributed under its Village Farms ^® brand name and other brand names, primarily to retail supermarkets and dedicated fresh food distribution companies. The Company also markets and distributes produce under exclusive arrangements for other greenhouse producers primarily located in British Columbia, central Mexico and the north eastern part of the United States. The Company markets and distributes its products throughout the United States and Canada. It currently operates four distribution centres located across the United States and Canada. Since its inception, the Company has been guided by a sustainable agriculture policy which integrates three main goals – environmental health, economic profitability and social and economic equality

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have operated vegetable producing greenhouses in British Columbia since 1989 and in Texas since 1995.

Tomato Suspension Agreement – Mexico

On June 22, 2012, a group of U.S. tomato growers, including VFLP, petitioned the U.S. Department of Commerce to withdraw their petition and requested termination of the 1996 Tomato Suspension Agreement (“ 1996 Agreement ”) with Mexico. The basis of the petition was that Mexican tomato growers were ‘dumping’ tomatoes into the U.S. market which is a violation of U.S. regulations. Dumping is defined as an importer who is selling product in the U.S. market for less than their costs. Mexican producers claimed they were not dumping and were adhering to the 1996 Agreement, but U.S. tomato producers who represented more than 85% of all U.S. tomato production (the threshold for U.S. Department of Commerce intervention) stipulated that the 1996 Agreement was outdated, it should be terminated and an investigation into Mexican tomato dumping should ensue. Due to the high volume of Mexican imports of produce, in particular tomatoes (field, shade and greenhouse), the issue was raised at the highest levels of both countries governments.

Negotiations for a revised agreement began and resulted in a new agreement (the “ Suspension Agreement ”) which became effective on March 4, 2013. All signatories have agreed that they will not sell product at prices below the established reference prices in the new Suspension Agreement. The Suspension Agreement has two reference price periods: October 23 – June 30 (“winter”) and July 1 – October 22 (“summer”), and distinguishes between “Open Field/Adapted Environment” and “Controlled Environment”, although “specialty” tomatoes is a separate category from the growing environments. Each environment and category has different reference prices depending on the period and the packaging.

While VFLP and some other U.S. greenhouse growers would have preferred that there was a definitive definition of “greenhouse” – the definition of “Controlled Environment” uses the Certified Greenhouse Growers Association definition which essentially is a modern glass greenhouse.

All signatories must ensure that they and/or their initial U.S. selling agent adhere to the Suspension Agreement and must hold a valid and effective PACA license. It is a violation of the Suspension Agreement to sell at a new price below the minimum reference price and doing so could result in financial fines or loss of the seller’s or importer’s PACA license, which is required to buy or sell produce in the United States. Additionally, the Mexican government is requiring Mexican growers to formally register with the Mexican authorities in order to export to the U.S., and failing to do so will result in the denial of export rights.

The net result of the Suspension Agreement is positive for the Company as it has curtailed the ongoing issue of mislabeling Mexican field tomatoes as greenhouse tomatoes and sets a minimum floor price for selling to U.S. importers or retailers, if they buy directly. In the long run, the Company believes that the Suspension Agreement should slow down the rapid growth of tomato production in Mexico as real economics – selling for a profit – is brought to bear on Mexican growers. If the market price for U.S. tomatoes drops below the reference price, Mexican growers would be unable to export to the United States.

Refinancing

The Company completed a refinancing of its Term Loan and Operating Loan in 2013, and subsequent amendments to each facility in 2016. The Company’s Term Loan is with a lender that understands and appreciates the cyclical nature of agriculture and in particular the hydroponic greenhouse industry. The March 2016 amendment extended the maturity date on the Term Loan to May 1, 2021 and changed the amortization of principal to be spread over 15 years from the previous 14 years on a lower outstanding principal balance. This amendment provided the Company with greater flexibility in satisfying its debt services covenant under its Operating Loan due to lower annual principal payments.

- 5 -

In addition, the Company agreed to an amendment with the Bank which extends the term of its Operating Loan to May 31, 2021. The Operating Loan is a revolving facility of up to CA$13,000,000 is based on up to 90% of the Company’s accounts receivable. The Operating Loan is subject to a debt service coverage ratio that changes over rolling 12-month periods.

Purchase of Maxim Power (B.C.) Inc.

On July 17, 2014, the Company purchased Maxim Power (B.C.) Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Maxim Power Corp., for approximately CA$5.2 million, which included a closing adjustment of CA$0.7 million for working capital. Maxim Power (B.C.) Inc. is a 7 megawatt power generation facility that is located on existing Village Farms property. The Company subsequently changed the name of this acquired company to VF Clean Energy, Inc. The facility that Village Farms acquired as part of the acquisition continues generating power under an existing long term power purchase agreement with British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority and improves the sustainability profile of Village Farms’ greenhouse operations in Delta, B.C.

Formation of Pure Sunfarms Corp.

In June 2017, the Company entered into a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) with Emerald for the objective of seeking to achieve large-scale, low-cost, high quality cannabis production. The Joint Venture was formed by way of a corporation named “Pure Sunfarms Corp.”, which is 50% owned by the Company and 50% owned by Emerald, and has the purpose of carrying on the business of the Joint Venture. Under the terms of the agreement governing the Joint Venture (the “Joint Venture Agreement”), the Company initially contributed rights to a 1.1 million square foot greenhouse facility in Delta, British Columbia (the “Delta 3 Greenhouse”) which the Joint Venture will seek to convert to ACMPR compliant production and, if permitted by applicable laws, production for the nontherapeutic adult-use cannabis market under the proposed Cannabis Act (the “Cannabis Act”). Under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement Emerald is contributing an aggregate of $20 million (the “Emerald Contribution”). On the formation of the Joint Venture, $2 million of the Emerald Contribution was contributed to Pure Sunfarms.

The Joint Venture Agreement includes a list of material decisions (the “Material Decisions”), including, among others the decision to no longer pursue any cultivation or distribution license which Pure Sunfarms was pursuing, a decision to fundamentally change the purpose or operations of Pure Sunfarms, any proposed response to investigations, audits or inspections by governmental authorities in relation to the licenses, any proposed response to proposed corrective action, voluntary or involuntary, in relation to the licenses, any proposed response to a governmental authority in connection with a threatened or actual suspension or cancellation of the licences and approval of the annual operating and capital budgets for Pure Sunfarms. Material Decisions require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at a board of directors meeting, at which a quorum is present. The board of directors of Pure Sunfarms currently consists of six directors – three appointed by Emerald and three appointed by the Company. If either Emerald or the Company’s ownership interest in Pure Sunfarms falls below 35%, such entity will lose one of the board of director members appointed by it. Voting rights will also be lost if a party is in default of its obligations under the Joint Venture Agreement or in the case of a decision in respect of which a party has a conflict of interest. The Joint Venture Agreement includes customary events of default and remedies for the non-defaulting party (including a dilution mechanism). The Joint Venture Agreement also includes restrictions against transfer of the shares of Pure Sunfarms, rights of first refusal, drag along rights and a buy-sell provision (the “Buy-Sell”). The Buy-Sell can only be exercised by Emerald or the Company (the “Offeror”) on or after the second anniversary of the formation of the Joint Venture if it is not in default of its obligations under the Joint Venture Agreement and: (a) the operating or capital budget for Pure Sunfarms for a subject year has not been approved by the board of directors by March 1 of such year; or (b) the board of directors is deadlocked with respect to a Material Decision. The recipient of the buy-sell notice (the “Offeree”) has 60 days to determine whether to sell its shares at the price offered in Pure Sunfarms to the Offeror or to purchase the Offeror’s shares in Pure Sunfarms at that price.

Subject to certain carve-outs in favour of Emerald, each of Emerald and the Company have committed to being the exclusive joint venture partner of the other party for all greenhouse-grown cannabis activities in Canada. It is a requirement of the Joint Venture Agreement that, should the option on the Delta 2 Greenhouse, an additional 1.1 million square foot greenhouse facility in Delta, British Columbia (the “Delta 2 Greenhouse”), or the Delta 1 Greenhouse, an additional 2.6 million square foot greenhouse facility in Delta, British Columbia (the “Delta 1 Greenhouse”), be exercised by the Joint Venture, the Delta 2 Greenhouse or the Delta 1 Greenhouse, as the case may be, would be contributed to the Joint Venture by the Company on an unencumbered basis.

On September 15, 2017, Emerald Health Botanicals Inc., a Licensed Producer under the ACMPR (License No. 10MM0005/2017), submitted an application to Health Canada for the expansion of its facilities to include a second cultivation site. The application for the second site was made in the name of Emerald Health Farms Inc., a wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary of Emerald Health Botanicals Inc., for the Delta 3 Greenhouse, located at 4431-80th Street, Delta, British Columbia. The application was subsequently accepted for review by Health Canada on September 18, 2017. The application for the second site named a senior person in charge (“SPIC”), a responsible person in charge (“RPIC”) and an alternate responsible person in charge (“A/RPIC”) as required by the ACMPR. A quality assurance person (“QA”), who will be responsible for assuring the quality of the product that is cultivated at the site, is yet to be appointed for this second site. Security clearances for each of the SPIC, RPIC, and A/RPIC were also submitted to Health Canada as required by the ACMPR. The application sought to obtain approval for the possession, production, sale, shipping, transportation, delivery and destruction of dried cannabis, cannabis plants, seeds and fresh marihuana, with an expected production capacity of 18,750 kilograms of dried cannabis annually. There is no intent to engage in the production and sale of cannabis oil at this time. On March 2, 2018 a cultivation license was issued by Health Canada under the ACMPR in respect of the Delta 3 Greenhouse. Upon receipt of the cultivation license, Emerald Health Farms changed its name to Pure Sunfarms Canada Corp. The Joint Venture hopes to receive a sales license under the ACMPR by July 1, 2018. Once the sales license has been issued in the name of Pure Sunfarms Canada Corp., the Joint Venture intends to exercise its irrevocable option to buy the shares of Pure Sunfarms Canada Corp. for $1.00 in order to possess the issued producer license and lawfully operate the facility.

Subsequent to acceptance by Health Canada to review the application, the Joint Venture commenced physical conversion of the Delta 3 Greenhouse and expects to complete conversion of the first 250,000 square foot quadrant by April 2018, at which time the Joint Venture is expected to commence production. Subject to the receipt of a sales license from Health Canada, and subject to inspection and approval by Health Canada, it expects to begin selling dried cannabis on or before July 2018 and to have all four quadrants of the Delta 3 Greenhouse commercially producing in the first quarter of 2019. The Joint Venture conservatively forecasts annual production from the Delta 3 Greenhouse to be a minimum of 75,000 kilograms of dried cannabis, which it expects to achieve in 2020.

On October 26, 2017, the Canadian Securities Administrators (the “CSA”) issued CSA Staff Notice 51-352 – Issuers with U.S. Marijuana-Related Activities (the “Staff Notice”) which sets out, among other things, certain disclosure expectations of the CSA regarding issuers who have direct, indirect or ancillary involvement in the U.S. cannabis industry. The Staff Notice was issued resulting from concerns regarding the lack of a uniform national framework for cannabis regulation in the United States, which currently has a conflict between state and federal law relating to cannabis, with certain U.S. states permitting the use and sale of cannabis, notwithstanding that cannabis continues to be listed as a controlled substance under U.S. federal law. The Company and the Joint Venture do not have, and do not intend to engage in, any direct, indirect or ancillary involvement in the U.S. cannabis industry (as described in the Staff Notice) until it is federally legal to do so.

Potential Future Developments

The Company is constantly exploring and evaluating whether to produce certain higher margin alternative crops, as well as whether to market and distribute other fresh produce grown by third parties to the Company’s retail customer base.

At this time the Company has no plans to grow cannabis at its U.S. facilities or to participate in any cannabis business activity or investment in the U.S. until such time that it is federally legal to do so in the U.S.. The Company intends to provide further updates with respect to these matters should relevant additional information become available. See “Forward Looking Statements”.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Greenhouse Vegetable Industry Overview

The North American Industry

The greenhouse vegetable industry in North America has experienced rapid growth over the past 20 years, particularly in the western regions of the United States, southwest British Columbia and southern Ontario in Canada, and concentrated areas in Mexico.

Mexico is the largest producer of greenhouse tomatoes, accounting for 57% of North American greenhouse vegetable sales, followed by Canada and the United States. Based on figures from 2016, greenhouse tomatoes accounted for over 45% tomato volume sold at retail stores in the United States. It is estimated that retail sales represent over 50% of the total fresh tomato market, including both field and hothouse grown. The balance of fresh tomato sales are to the food service industry, which is primarily serviced by field tomato producers.

The following table illustrates estimated greenhouse tomato area and production for the U.S., Mexico and Canada in 2016 (the most recent date for which this information is available):

Sources: The State of the N. American Hothouse Vergetable Industry, by Dr. Roberta Cook, March 2018; Greenhouse Consultants; and Perishables Group Freshfact, Nielsen Business Media, Inc.

Greenhouse Industry — United States

The majority of greenhouse vegetable producers in the United States are located in the southwestern and western states, where the growing conditions are more ideal for winter growing operations and in some areas year-round production. New greenhouse facilities have recently been completed in the Midwest region of the United States and more are planned for this area. These facilities will have lights to allow them to produce in the winter months. Producing in the winter months is advantageous as produce prices are generally higher, although with increasing Mexican production, seasonal fluctuations are decreasing. The majority of greenhouse tomatoes produced in the United States are used for domestic consumption. In addition, the United States imports a significant portion of its supply of greenhouse tomatoes from Canada and Mexico to meet domestic demand, it is estimated that Mexican greenhouse vegetables comprise between 40 to 60% of consumption in the United States. Producers in the United States benefit from high yields, consistent product quality, year-round supply and closer proximity to its customers.

Greenhouse Industry — Canada

Among the North American greenhouse vegetable producers, Canada is the largest supplier from April to October of each year. Several factors, including climatic advantages (cooler summer temperatures) and the proximity of greenhouse producers to consumer markets, contribute to Canada’s favourable positioning relative to the United States during that time period. The primary markets for greenhouse produce grown in British Columbia include the west and northwest regions of the United States, as well as western Canada, while the primary markets for Ontario produce include the east and central regions of the United States, as well as eastern Canada.

- 8 -

The strengths of the Canadian greenhouse vegetable industry include its high yields and consistent product quality. The main weakness of the Canadian greenhouse industry relates to its lack of production during the historically higher priced winter months. However, because of the high volume of tomatoes produced in Canada during the April to October growing season, profits generated during this time period generally are sufficient to sustain producers through the full year.

Greenhouse Industry — Mexico

Although Mexico was the last to enter the greenhouse tomato industry in North America, it has more greenhouse tomato acreage than the United States and Canada combined. It should be noted there is no formal definition of a “greenhouse” and a significant portion of the greenhouse acreage in Mexico is very low-tech, employing shade field structures. The product from the shade facilities is in some instances marketed as greenhouse-grown, which until the recent update on the Suspension Agreement between the United States and Mexico (as described above) was not in violation of any regulations, but for the State of California regulations, which has a definition of greenhouse for produce sold within the state. Average yields and product quality in Mexico are comparatively low, due to the wide range of greenhouse technologies. Currently, Mexican producers tend to grow and market during the winter months as they have sufficient light levels to grow and cooler temperatures during these months, although the trend towards more sophisticated greenhouses is permitting a longer growing season, as well as increased yields.

Management believes that Mexico’s industry, however, is often challenged by high heating costs, less experienced management, less developed infrastructure, higher distribution costs, inconsistent product quality and the lack of an experienced sales and marketing organization. Over the last several years, the greenhouse industry in Mexico has continued to make significant advances with respect to its growing expertise and ability to extend its growing season, which continues to put pressure on produce pricing.

Pricing

Prices for vegetables fluctuate depending upon availability of supply and consumer demand. Greenhouse vegetable producers typically command a higher price for their products compared to field producers, as a result of the vegetables’ consistent quality, taste, appearance and year-round availability. This higher price, combined with higher production yields for greenhouse produce, typically offset the higher costs associated with greenhouse production relative to field production. Production costs for greenhouse grown produce are generally higher due to greater energy, labour, infrastructure, technological requirements and more intense crop yields per acre. As the fresh produce market share of big box retailers increases, pricing is moving towards more contract pricing for six, nine or even twelve month periods reducing some of the traditional seasonal pricing. Contract pricing does not provide volume guaranties. Average pricing over the last five years has continued to slowly decrease in large part due to the increasing supply of greenhouse tomatoes.

Cannabis Industry Overview

Legal History of Medical Cannabis in Canada

The Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (“ MMPR ”) established a legal regime for licensing producers and permitting the sale of dried cannabis to registered patients pursuant to a medical document provided by a health care practitioner. The overarching purposes of the MMPR was to ensure that Canadians with a medical need could access quality-controlled cannabis grown under secure and sanitary conditions. The MMPR were repealed on August 24, 2016 and were replaced by the ACMPR as a result of a decision by the Federal Court of Canada (the “ Federal Court ”) in Allard v. Canada. The Federal Court held that requiring individuals to obtain cannabis only from Licensed Producers violated liberty and security rights protected by section 7 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms . The Federal Court found that individuals who require cannabis for medical purposes did not have “reasonable access” under the MMPR regime. Accordingly, the ACMPR contemplates both access to medical cannabis through a Licensed Producer or through personal production exemptions, thereby giving patients reasonable access to, and choice of, cannabis product.

- 9 -

Current Applicable Regulatory Regime

The ACMPR are the current governing regulations regarding the production, sale and distribution of cannabis products, including cannabis oil, in Canada. The ACMPR provide for three possible alternatives for Canadian residents who have been authorized by their health care practitioner to access cannabis for medical purposes:

The ACMPR sets out, among other things, the authorized activities and general responsibilities of Licensed Producers, including:

Authorized activities under the ACMPR include the production and sale of starting materials (i.e., cannabis seeds and plants) to those individuals who have registered to produce a limited amount of cannabis for their own medical purposes, or to have it produced by a designated person, and the ability to sell an interim supply of fresh or dried cannabis or cannabis oil to registered persons while they wait for their plants to grow. Licences and licence applications under the ACMPR consolidate the MMPR licence requirements for the production and sale of dried cannabis, the requirements for supplemental licences under the exemption in section 56 of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (Canada), and the new requirements for the sale of cannabis seeds and plants.

Expected Legalization of Recreational Cannabis in Canada: The Cannabis Act

In connection with the current Government of Canada’s platform advocating for the legalization and regulation of recreational cannabis in order to dismantle the illegal market and restrict access by under-age individuals, on April 13, 2017, the Government of Canada released Bill C-45 which, if implemented, would enact the Cannabis Act. The Cannabis Act would provide a licensing and permitting scheme for the production, testing, packaging, labelling, sending, delivery, transportation, sale, possession and disposal of cannabis for non-medicinal (i.e., recreational) use, to be implemented by regulations made under the Cannabis Act.

The Government of Canada has advised that it intends to bring the Cannabis Act into force no later than July, 2018. The provincial and territorial governments have indicated that there must be a sufficient period of time between Royal Assent (i.e. approval by Parliament) of the Cannabis Act and the date that the law comes into force, and that a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks is necessary for an orderly transition. The Government of Canada has indicated that it would prioritize an orderly transition to the new legal framework, and provide for this 8-12 week period of time. Given this time frame, it is expected that recreational cannabis will not be available through authorized provincial/territorial retailers until at least August 2018.

The Cannabis Act proposes to maintain separate access to cannabis for medical purposes, including providing that import and export licences and permits will only be issued in respect of cannabis for medical or scientific purposes.

On October 3, 2017, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Health proposed amendments to the Cannabis Act including, among other things, an amendment that would permit cannabis edibles and concentrates to be sold, to come into force no later than 12 months after the Cannabis Act comes into force.

On November 10, 2017, the Government of Canada proposed that federal tax on cannabis for recreational purposes should not exceed $1 per gram or 10% of the producer’s price, whichever is higher, with retail sales taxes levied on top of that amount.

While the Cannabis Act provides for the regulation of the commercial production of cannabis for recreational purposes and related matters by the federal government, it proposes that the provinces and territories of Canada will have authority to regulate other aspects of recreational cannabis (similar to what is currently the case for liquor and tobacco products), such as sale and distribution, minimum age requirements, places where cannabis can be consumed, and a range of other matters. To date, the Governments of Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, New Brunswick, Québec and British Columbia have announced partial regulatory regimes for the distribution and sale of cannabis for recreational purposes within those provinces. Other provinces, namely Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia, and the Yukon territory, have engaged in public consultation but have yet to announce a proposed approach to the sale and distribution model for recreational cannabis in their respective jurisdictions.

On November 22, 2017, Health Canada also launched public consultations (together with consultation proposals) on the proposed regulatory approach for the proposed Cannabis Act. The consultations were open until January 20, 2018, and on March 19, 2018, Health Canada published a Summary of Comments Received during the Public Consultation. This Summary document provides direction on the packaging and labelling provisions of the proposed regulations under the Cannabis Act to help licensed producers, provinces and territories and others prepare for the coming into force of the proposed Act. Regulations under the Cannabis Act (if it is approved by Parliament) are expected to be published in final form (i.e. without an opportunity for further consultation) shortly following Royal Assent of the Cannabis Act and before its coming into force.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Overview

The Company is one of the largest and longest operating vertically integrated greenhouse growers in North America. The Company’s vegetables are grown hydroponically (without the use of soil) in a glass enclosed, high technology environment using sophisticated computer systems to control irrigation, fertilizers, carbon dioxide, light, temperature, ventilation, humidity and other climatic factors. The Company’s tomatoes are produced by plants that have been selected for their taste, quality and other characteristics and are not genetically modified. The Company owns and currently operates a total of six produce greenhouse facilities, four in Texas and two in British Columbia. The Company operates an industry leading sales, distribution and marketing organization. In particular, the Company’s strategy focuses on forging strong customer relationships by servicing retailers on a year-round basis, and maintaining the highest standards of food safety.

At this time, the Company is leasing a third British Columbia facility to Pure Sunfarms which received its cultivation license on March 2, 2018. Pure Sunfarms has the right to continue to lease the facility from the Company or purchase it for $1.

The Company, through its subsidiary VFCE, owns and operates a 7 megawatt power plant that generates electricity.

Core Operating Principle

The Company’s core operating principle is to deliver fairness and satisfaction in its customer brand promise. Management strives to operate the business for optimal success by endeavoring to be:

Greenhouse Facilities and Products

All of the Company’s greenhouses use state of the art hydroponic technology and produce a combined estimated 90 to 100 million pounds of premium quality greenhouse tomatoes and cucumbers annually. All of the greenhouses are constructed of glass, aluminum and steel, and are located on land owned or leased by the Company. The Company continually evaluates its production facilities and has devised a planting strategy that optimizes its product mix.

The following table outlines the Company’s operating greenhouse facilities.

The Company embraces sustainable agriculture and environmentally friendly growing practices by:

Sales, Marketing and Distribution

The Company is a leading marketer of premium-quality, value-added, branded greenhouse-grown produce in North America, and is a significant producer of tomatoes on-the-vine, beefsteak, cocktail, grape, cherry tomatoes, roma, Mini San Marzano (a tomato variety for which the Company currently has an exclusive agreement with the seed

provider to be the sole grower in North America) and cucumbers at its facilities. The Company, from its supply partners, also distributes and purchases premium tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumbers in the United States and Canada produced by other greenhouse growers located in Canada and Mexico. The Company maintains high standards of food safety and requires the same of its contract growers, while providing on-time, effective and efficient distribution.

The Company strives to continually exceed the expectations of its customers by consistently providing superior product, including adding new product varieties and packaging innovations.

With leased distribution centres in Texas and British Columbia, the Company provides its customers with flexibility in purchasing. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company had an on-time delivery record of 98.5%, while maintaining competitive freight rates that management of the Company believes to be among the best in the industry.

The Company’s marketing strategy is to strategically position the Company to be the supplier of choice for retailers offering greenhouse produce by focusing on the following:

Year-Round Supplier . Year-round production capability of the Company enhances customer relationships, resulting in more consistent pricing.

Quality and Food Safety . Sales are made directly to retailers which ensures control of the product from seed to customer and results in higher levels of food safety, shelf life and quality control. Food safety is an integral part of the Company’s operations, and management believes that it has led, and currently leads, the industry in adopting Good Agricultural Practices. This program is modeled after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Good Manufacturing Practices using the Primus Labs ^® format and third party auditors. All of the Company’s packing facilities undergo comprehensive food safety audits by Primus Labs ^® .

Quality Packaging and Presentation . Product is selected at a uniform size and picked at the same stage of vine ripeness. The packaging for the product is “display ready”, ensuring retail customers have a full view of the product on the supermarket shelf.

Exclusive Varieties . The Company expands its product profile to create and drive exclusive varietal relationships in North America that enable the Company to present consumers with an enhanced eating experience with the Village Farms brand.

Direct Sale to Retail Customers . Greenhouse produce (produce grown by the Company plus supply partner produce) is sold directly to supermarket chains, including Associated Wholesale Grocers, BJ’s Wholesale Club Inc., Costco Wholesale, Fred Meyer, The Fresh Market, Inc., Giant Eagle, Harris Teeter Supermarkets, HEB Grocery Company, The Kroger Co., Loblaw Companies Limited, Market Basket, Publix Super Markets, Inc., Safeway Inc., Sobeys Inc., Sam’s Club, Trader Joe’s, Wakefern Food Corp., Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Whole Foods Market and Winco Foods LLC.

Excellence in Customer Service and Logistics . Logistics and distribution capability are key factors in ensuring fresh high quality product meets consumer demands. Management of the Company believes it has a competitive advantage through its logistics and distribution networks, which includes strategically located distribution centres.

The Company markets, sells and distributes all of its products, including products sold under exclusive marketing arrangements with its U.S., Canadian and Mexican greenhouse operations.

Production and Packaging Process

The production process for the Company’s west Texas facilities (Marfa and Fort Davis) starts in the spring. Raw materials purchased by the Company for its greenhouse operations include seeds, fertilizers and growing media purchased from several different suppliers. From May to June, the seeds purchased by the Company are grown by an independent third party contractor, which has specialized equipment and growing space, until the plants are approximately four to six weeks old, at which time they are transported to the Company’s Texas facilities. None of the Company’s plants or products are genetically modified. June through September, planting occurs in the greenhouses. From this point on, until the end of the season, plants are pruned to ensure that the optimal number of tomatoes are grown on each plant. Harvesting commences in September/October and generally continues until June of the following year.

The Company’s newest facility in Monahans, Texas, completed in December 2011, is based on the Company’s proprietary GATES ^® technology which is a state of the art technology that allows for a 12-month per year production. The greenhouse is fully enclosed and uses a proprietary system to cool the greenhouse even in the hot summer months. This facility grows cucumbers and tomatoes and is constantly planting and replanting to ensure a consistent level of production year-round, although as with any greenhouse summer production is higher due to longer daylight hours.

The production process in Canada for tomatoes is similar to the Company’s west Texas operations, although the timing for growing the seeds, planting, and harvesting occur at different times during the year. Specifically, from October to December, the seeds purchased by the Company’s Canadian operations are grown by an independent third party contractor. In December, planting occurs in the Company’s greenhouses. Harvesting commences in March and generally continues until late November of each year.

The tomatoes and cucumbers are vine-ripened and hand-picked for optimum taste and quality, at all of the Company’s facilities. Once harvested, products are sorted by grade and weight and packed for distribution to customers. The Company offers a variety of packaging for its tomatoes that are product and customer specific.

Product Development and Specialization

The Company is engaged in ongoing testing of new technologies and advanced growing systems, including test trials of new tomato varieties to determine whether they improve product quality, taste and production yields, or lower the cost of production. The Company tests these tomato varieties for their maturation period, resistance to disease, the size and quality of the tomatoes as well as the tomatoes’ shelf life and adaptability to seasonal changes in light. If a new variety shows promising characteristics, the Company will conduct a commercial trial where the new variety is planted on a larger scale, with performance results compared to the Company’s existing tomato varieties.

The Company launched its first exclusive tomato varieties in select retail accounts in late 2012. The initial reception, of one in particular – Mini San Marzano – has been well received and the Company has been expanding its production space to meet increasing retailer and consumer demand. Since 2012, the Company has entered into additional exclusive seed agreements in addition to Mini San Marzano with the latest in 2017 for an initial launch in the first quarter of 2018. While none of the other exclusive tomato seed agreements has had the same success as Mini San Marzano, they have added to the uniqueness of the Company’s product offerings, which has resulted in new retail business.

Product Pricing

Prices for the Company’s products have historically followed a seasonal trend of higher prices during the first and fourth quarters of the calendar year and lower prices in the summer months. This historical trend is rapidly changing with the ever-increasing supply of Mexican production, which due to Mexican climate conditions is concentrated in the winter months, as well the increasing influence of big box retailers who operate off partial to full year pricing contracts. Going forward, assuming these trends continue, pricing is likely to become less seasonal than it has been in the past. The Company’s goal is to exceed industry average prices by continuing to develop long-term customer relationships, providing a favourable product mix, developing exclusive varieties and delivering logistic efficiencies.

Intellectual Property

The Company owns and has registered many trademarks and service marks in the United States as well as some in Canada and other jurisdictions. The following is a list of the key trademarks registered in the United States, the Company’s primary distribution market: Village Farms ^® , Delectable TOV ^® , Baby Beefs ^® , From Our House To Your Home ^® , Hydrobites ^® , Mini Sensations ^® , Sinfully Sweet Campari ^® , Savory Roma ^® , Lip-Smackn’ Grape ^® , Heavenly Villagio Marzano ^® , Cherry No. 9 ^® , Cabernet Estate Reserve ^® , BC Grown Logo ^® , Texas Grown Logo ^® , Good for the Earth ^® , Village Farms Greenhouse Grown ^® , Scrumptious Mini ^® , and Sweet Bells ^® .

Competition

The market for premium greenhouse grown produce is highly competitive. In addition to other domestic and foreign greenhouse producers, the Company competes with producers of field grown tomatoes that generally have prices substantially below those of greenhouse-grown tomatoes. Competition from producers in Mexico has increased due to increased acreage and improved yields due to the use of improved technology as well as a result of the North American Free Trade Agreement. Newly elected U.S. President has stated his intent to “renegotiate” NAFTA but as of the date of this filing no specifics have been announced. See “General Development of the Company” for further information on Mexican tomato supplies.

The Company’s greenhouse vegetable competitors are located primarily in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Four of the larger North American greenhouse producers/distributors competing with the Company are Mastronardi Produce Ltd., Windset Farms Inc., Houweling Nurseries Ltd and Mucci Farms Ltd.

Offsetting the competitive pressures faced by the Company are substantial barriers to entry in North America related to the sizeable initial capital outlay requirements of a modern greenhouse, significant ramp up time, the need for operational expertise and capable sales, marketing and distribution abilities.

Employees

The Company has approximately 1,000 employees and contract workers, the majority of whom are employed in the Company’s greenhouse operations. None of the employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. In the opinion of Management, the Company enjoys a good working relationship with its employees.

Capital Expenditures

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company spent approximately $1.7 million on capital assets (2016—$2.2 million). During the year ended December 31, 2017, the capital expenditures were used for improvements to existing facilities, distribution centres or information technology systems or hardware.

For the foreseeable future, Management estimates that average annual maintenance capital expenditures on its tomato greenhouse facilities will be approximately $2.0-$3.0 million per year. This amount will consist mainly of technological upgrades, ongoing repairs of growing systems and improvements to existing facilities. In addition to maintenance capital expenditures, the Company incurs ongoing repair and maintenance costs which are expensed as incurred and therefore not included in capital expenditures. These expenses averaged $2.2 million per year during the last three fiscal years.

During 2018, Management anticipates capital investment spending for its produce facilities to be between $2.0 million and $3.0 million. The Company may make additional equity contributions to Pure Sunfarms of cash in the next twelve months depending on the final completion timeline for the Delta 3 Greenhouse and whether or not Pure Sunfarms obtains financing.

Energy Management Strategy

The Company employs the following energy management strategy:

when feasible, contract for forward purchases of natural gas at favourable rates. At this time, due to the expectation of low natural gas pricing for the foreseeable future, no forward purchase contracts are in place;

develop techniques to reduce the use of natural gas. The Company has installed energy screens in all of its U.S. greenhouse facilities and most of its Canadian greenhouse facilities and has experienced a substantial reduction in gas usage;

continue to investigate methods to extract food grade CO2 from the landfill gas at the Delta, BC greenhouse facilities;

continue to investigate alternate fuels, such as biomass or woodwaste; and

continue to investigate the concept of closed greenhouses and the use of geothermal energy.

Foreign Exchange Strategy

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar to more accurately represent the economic environment in which it operates.

For the 2018 fiscal year, it is expected that approximately 80% of the Company’s costs will be incurred in U.S. dollars, and approximately 85% of its revenues will be earned in U.S. dollars. As a result, Management believes that the Company is benefiting from a “matching” of revenues and expenses by currency. The Company also has the ability to enter into foreign exchange contracts and foreign exchange options for the purchase of Canadian dollars in order to reduce the risks of exchange rate fluctuations affecting the level of Canadian dollars needed for Canadian operations, as well as the purchase of Euros affecting both its Canadian and U.S. operations.

Environmental and Regulatory Matters

Greenhouse operations in the United States are subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations, including the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 , the Clean Air Act , the Clean Water Act , the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act , the Federal Insecticide , Fungicide and Rodenticide Act , the Toxic Substances Control Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act .

The Company’s U.S. greenhouse operations are subject to regulations enforced by, among others, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“ FDA ”) and the United States Department of Agriculture (“ USDA ”). The FDA enforces statutory standards regarding the branding and safety of food products and determines the safety of food substances in the United States. The USDA sets standards for raw produce and governs its inspection and certification. Under the Perishable Agricultural and Commodities Act , the USDA exercises broad control over the marketing of produce in domestic and foreign commerce, sets standards of fair conduct as to representations, sales, delivery, shipment and payment for goods, and regulates the licensing of produce merchants and brokers. The Company’s U.S. growing operations are also subject to oversight by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regarding the use of fertilizers and pesticides protection.

Similar to the U.S. regulatory requirements described above, the Company’s Canadian operations are subject to various general commercial regulations, including those relating to food safety, packaging and labelling, occupational health and safety, phyto sanitary certificates for cross border shipments, product source and re call capability, and anti bioterrorism measures for cross border shipments.

The Company is committed to protecting the health and safety of employees and the general public, and to sound environmental stewardship. The Company believes that prevention of incidents and injuries, and protection of the environment, benefits everyone and delivers increased value to its shareholders, customers and employees. The Company has health and safety and environmental management and systems and has established policies, programs and practices for conducting safe and environmentally sound operations. Regular reviews and audits are conducted to assess compliance with legislation and Company policy.

The Natural Products Marketing (BC) Act (the “ Act ”) and certain federal orders issued under the Agricultural Products Act (Canada) give the British Columbia provincial government the authority to regulate the marketing and production of specific agricultural products. The British Columbia Marketing Board (“ BCMB ”) was created in 1935 to supervise and regulate marketing boards and commissions created under the Act. Independent of government, the BCMB’s primary mandate today is to administer the regulated marketing legislation in the public interest. The BCMB has three principal responsibilities: supervising all marketing boards and commissions; hearing appeals from organizations or persons who are dissatisfied or aggrieved by a decision of a marketing board or commission; and acting as a signatory to federal provincial agreements that govern the marketing of some regulated products.

British Columbia Vegetable Marketing Commission

The BCVMC has responsibility for promoting and regulating the production, transportation, packing, storage and marketing of regulated vegetables in British Columbia. It also requires greenhouse growers to market through agencies licensed by the BCVMC to encourage the orderly distribution of regulated products. The BCVMC has the right to regulate the time and place at which, and to designate the agency through which, a regulated product must be produced, packed, stored, transported or marketed, and can also determine the manner of distribution, the quantity and the quality, grade or class of these products. It can also (but in the case of greenhouse tomatoes and bell peppers currently does not) set the prices at which a regulated product or a grade or class of it may be bought or sold in British Columbia.

Agency and Producer Licenses

The BCVMC issues licenses to agencies and producers in British Columbia on an annual basis by way of general orders passed by the BCVMC. Licensed agencies are authorized to purchase greenhouse vegetables from licensed producers and to market those vegetables within British Columbia and for interprovincial or export trade. The Company, through one its Canadian subsidiaries, has been authorized to buy and sell produce grown in British Columbia since February 6, 2007.

Licensed producers, such as VF Canada LP, operate the facilities in which greenhouse vegetables are produced and must be a member of an agency licensed by the BCVMC. Only producers licensed by the BCVMC can sell their products to an agency licensed by the BCVMC.

VF Canada LP retains the right to be allocated the same amount of quota for each subsequent crop year. However, VF Canada LP can, and often does, apply for changes in specific quota allocations to optimize product mix and improve financial returns.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE

Common Shares

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares. Each Common Share entitles the holder thereof to receive notice of and to attend all meetings of shareholders of the Company and to one vote per Common Share at such meetings (other than meetings at which only the holders of another class of shares are entitled to vote separately as a class). The Common Shares entitle the holders thereof to receive, in any year, dividends on the Common Shares as and when declared by the board of directors of the Company, provided that payment of such dividends is not prohibited under law and after payment of any applicable amounts to which holders of any Preferred Shares may be entitled. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, after payment of or other proper provision for all of the liabilities of the Company and the payment of any amounts payable to holders of the Preferred Shares, the holders of the Common Shares will be entitled to share pro rata in all remaining property or assets of the Company.

The ability of a beneficial owner of Common Shares to pledge such Common Shares or otherwise take action with respect to such shareholder’s interest in such Common Shares (other than through a CDS Participant) may be limited due to the lack of a physical Common Share certificate.

The Company has the option to terminate the registration of the Common Shares through the book entry system in which case definitive certificates for the Common Shares in fully registered form would be issued to beneficial owners of such Common Shares or their nominees.

Special Shares

The holders of Special Shares are entitled to one vote for each Special Share held at all meetings of shareholders of the Company other than meetings at which only the holders of another class of shares are entitled to vote separately as a class; provided that in no event shall the votes attached to the Special Shares exceed 45% of the votes otherwise attached to the Common Shares and Special Shares then outstanding. In certain circumstances, the holders of Special Shares will not be entitled to vote separately as a class and will not be entitled to dissent. The holders of Special Shares will not be entitled to share in any distribution of the property or assets of the Company upon the dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in the event of any other distribution of assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs. The provisions of the Special Shares cannot be modified by the Company without first obtaining, by separate affirmative vote, two-thirds of the votes cast at a meeting of the holders of the shares of such class.

The holders of Special Shares are not entitled to receive any dividends. The Company has redeemed all of the Special Shares that were previously issued and outstanding.

Preferred Shares

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Preferred Shares. The Company’s board of directors will fix the number of Preferred Shares, as well as the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions for each series of Preferred Shares that may be issued, subject to the Company filing the applicable articles of amendment under the CBCA. Preferred Shares will have preference over Common Shares with respect to the payment of dividends and in the distribution of assets in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, be it voluntary or involuntary, or any other distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding-up its affairs. Preferred Shares will have no right to vote on shareholder matters, subject to certain exceptions. No changes to the provisions of the Preferred Shares may be made without the approval of the holders of the Preferred Shares.

Warrants

In conjunction with the formation of Pure Sunfarms on June 27, 2017 the Company issued 300,000 common share purchase warrants to an affiliate of a Canadian financial institution as partial consideration for services provided in respect thereof. Each such warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of CA$2.07. Each such warrant is exercisable up to June 6, 2020.

Retained Interest of Michael DeGiglio

Pursuant to the terms of the Securityholders’ Agreement, the Company has granted to its Chief Executive Officer, Michael DeGiglio certain pre-emptive rights, as well as “demand” and “piggy back” registration rights, which will enable Mr. DeGiglio to require the Company to file a prospectus (in the case of a demand registration) and otherwise assist with a public offering of Common Shares, subject to certain limitations. In the event of a “piggy back” offering, the Company’s financing requirements are to take priority. Subject to the approval of the TSX, in the event that the Company decides to issue equity securities or securities convertible into or exchangeable for equity securities of the Company other than to officers, employees, consultants or directors of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company pursuant to a bona fide incentive compensation plan, the Securityholders’ Agreement provides, among other things, Michael DeGiglio with pre-emptive rights to purchase such number of newly issued equity securities in order to maintain his pro rata ownership interest in the Company.

Book Entry System

Registration of interests in and transfers of the Common Shares are made only through the book entry system administered by CDS. Common Shares must be purchased, transferred and surrendered for redemption through a shareholder’s applicable CDS Participant. All rights of shareholders must be exercised through, and all payments or other property to which such shareholder is entitled will be made or delivered by, CDS or the CDS Participant through which the shareholder holds such Common Shares. Upon the purchase of any Common Shares, a shareholder will typically receive only a customer confirmation from their applicable CDS Participant through which the Common Shares were purchased.

Financial Year End

The fiscal year end of the Company is December 31.

CREDIT FACILITIES

Credit Facilities

On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into a new term facility among VF Canada LP (the “ Borrower ”), certain affiliates of the Borrower, as guarantors, and Farm Credit Canada (the “ Term Loan ”). On March 24, 2016, the Term Loan was amended. The following summary describes the current provisions of the Term Loan. The Term Loan matures on May 1, 2021. The current balance of the Term Loan is US$36,694,544. Subject to acceleration upon an event of default, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan will be payable by way of monthly instalments of principal and interest based on an amortization period of 15 years, with the balance of the term loans and all unpaid accrued interest to be paid in full at maturity. The Term Loan is subject to annual financial covenants as well as other positive and negative covenants typical for this type of loan. The Term Loan is a LIBOR borrowing plus a margin based on the prevailing coverage ratio at each reporting date. The interest rate as at the date of this annual information form was 6.28698% per annum.

In addition to the Term Loan described above, the Company also has an operating credit facility with a Canadian chartered bank (the “ Bank ”). This revolving operating loan of up to CA$13,000,000 is at variable interest rates with a maturity date of October 12, 2021 (the “ Operating Loan ”). The borrowing base is based on 90% of current accounts receivable less priority claims. No amount was drawn on the Operating Loan as at December 31, 2017 (December 31, 2016 – $nil) which is available to a maximum of CA$13,000,000, less two outstanding letters of credit of US$320,000 and CA$38,500. Interest on amounts borrowed is calculated by way of Prime Rate, US Prime Rate, Base Rate or LIBOR plus a margin. It is the Company’s choice on how it will borrow, and all undrawn funds are charged a stand-by fee of 0.375% per annum. As of the date of this annual information form, the outstanding balance of the Operating Loan is $3,000,000.

- 19 -

On September 26, 2014, the Company’s subsidiary, VFCE, entered into a loan agreement with the Bank (the “ VFCE Loan ”). The VFCE Loan is a non-revolving fixed rate loan of CA$3.0 million, has a maturity date of June 30, 2023, a fixed interest rate of 4.98% per annum, and monthly payments of CA$36,000 which commenced in January 2015. As of the date of this annual information form, the outstanding balance of the VFCE Loan is approximately $1.85 million.

As security for the borrowings, the Company has provided, among other things, promissory notes, a first mortgage on one of the greenhouse properties, and general security agreements over its assets. The borrowings are subject to certain positive and negative covenants customary for loans on terms similar to the Credit Facilities. The Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including APDI, have provided full recourse guarantees of the Credit Facilities and have granted security therefore. As at December 31, 2017, and through April 2, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

RISK FACTORS

The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks and uncertainties facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to Management or that Management currently deems immaterial also may impair the operations of the Company. If any of the following risks actually occur, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition, could be adversely affected.

Risks Relating to the Company

Product Pricing

The greenhouse vegetable industry is highly competitive and sensitive to changes in the price of greenhouse tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumbers. The price of greenhouse produce is affected by many factors including supply and demand, negotiations between buyers and sellers, quality and general economic conditions, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. Demand for the Company’s products is subject to fluctuations resulting from adverse changes in general economic conditions, evolving consumer preferences, nutritional and health-related concerns and public reaction to food spoilage or food contamination issues. General supply of tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumbers is subject to fluctuations relating to weather, insects, plant disease and changes in greenhouse acreage. There can be no assurance that consumption will increase or that present consumption levels will be maintained. If consumer demands for greenhouse produce decreases, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Maintain Profitability

The Company’s ability to continue to generate comparable net earnings is based, in part, on its ability to maintain its low cost structure to sustain its EBITDA margins. These margins are dependent upon the Company’s ability to continue to profitably sell produce and to be the supplier of choice to its customers. The failure to develop and successfully adapt new products at favourable margins or an increase in cost of goods or operating costs could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, and cash available.

A principal objective of the Company is to pursue operational efficiencies. Profitability depends in significant measure on its ability to, among other things, successfully manage, identify and implement operational efficiencies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in managing its cost control and productivity improvement measures.

Risks Inherent in the Agricultural Business

The Company’s revenue involves the growing of greenhouse produce, an agricultural product. As such, the Company is subject to the risks inherent in the agricultural business, such as weather, insects, plant and seed diseases and similar agricultural risks. Although the Company grows its products in climate-controlled greenhouses, carefully monitors the growing conditions within its greenhouses and retains experienced production personnel, there can be no assurance that natural elements will not have a material adverse effect on the production of its products.

- 20 -

Natural Catastrophes

The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by severe weather including wind, snow, hail and rain, which may result in its operations having reduced harvest yields due to lower light levels, or a more catastrophic event as occurred at the Company’s Marfa, Texas facilities on May 31, 2012, when it lost all three of its operating greenhouses to a short but powerful hail storm. Although the Company anticipates and factors in certain periods of lower than optimal light levels, extended periods of severe or unusual light levels may adversely impact its financial results due to higher costs and missed sales opportunities arising from reduced production yields.

The Company’s business operations, some of which are located on the British Columbia coast, are located in an area that is geologically active and considered to be at risk from earthquakes. The Company’s earthquake deductible is 10% of the Company’s loss caused by the earthquake, subject to a maximum deductible of CA$5,000,000.

Climate change over time is predicted to lead to changes in the frequency of storm events as well as their severity. The Company is unable to predict the impact of climate change on its business.

While the Company maintains insurance coverage, it cannot predict that all potential insurable risks have been foreseen or that adequate coverage is maintained against known risks.

Retail Consolidation

The Company’s top ten customers for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 accounted for approximately 62% and 63%, respectively, of total revenues. As a result of continuing retail consolidation, the Company’s U.S. retail customers grow larger and become more sophisticated enabling them to demand lower pricing, special packaging or varieties as well as increased promotional programs. If the Company is unable to use its scale, marketing expertise and market leadership position to respond to these trends, it may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

Covenant Risk

Under the terms of the Credit Facilities, the Company is subject to a number of covenants, including debt service covenants. These covenants could reduce the Company’s flexibility in conducting the Company’s operations by limiting the Company’s ability to borrow money and may create a risk of default on the Company’s debt (including by a cross-default to other credit agreements) if the Company cannot satisfy or continue to satisfy these covenants. In the event that the Company cannot comply with a debt covenant, or anticipates that it will be unable to comply with a debt covenant in the future, management may seek a waiver and/or amendment from the applicable lenders in respect of any such covenant in order to avoid any breach or default that might otherwise result there from. If the Company defaults under any of the Credit Facilities and the default is not waived by the applicable lenders, the debt extended pursuant to all of its debt instruments could become due and payable prior to its stated due date. The Company cannot give any assurance that (i) its lenders will agree to any covenant amendments or waive any covenant breaches or defaults that may occur under the applicable debt instruments, or (ii) it could pay this debt if it became due prior to its stated due date. Accordingly, any default by the Company under its existing debt that is not waived by the applicable lenders could materially adversely impact the Company’s results of operations and financial results and may have a material adverse effect on the trading price of its Common Shares. See also “Risk Factors—Dependence Upon Credit Facilities”.

Dependence Upon Credit Facilities

The Company is subject to fluctuations in its working capital on a month to month basis. Consistent with its past practice, the Company may draw down on revolving credit facilities available under its Operating Loan. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to have access to appropriate credit facilities on reasonable terms and conditions, if at all. An inability to draw down upon credit facilities could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

The greenhouse vegetable industry in North America is highly competitive. The Company faces competition from numerous greenhouse operators throughout North America and, to a lesser extent, Europe. Some of the Company’s competitors have strong economic resources and are well established as suppliers to the markets in which the Company’s products are sold. Accordingly, such competitors may be better able to withstand volatility within the industry and challenging economic times due to retaining greater operating and financial flexibility than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against its current or future competitors or that such competition will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and the amount of cash available for distribution to shareholders.

Transportation Disruptions

Due to the perishable and premium nature of the Company’s products, the Company depends on fast and efficient road transportation to distribute its product. Any prolonged disruption of this transportation network could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Labour

The Company’s operations are labour intensive, particularly during peak harvest months. In Canada, most of the Company’s labour is supplied by contract labour suppliers on short-term contracts and workers hired through the Seasonal Agriculture Workers Program. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to source sufficient skilled labourers in the future. In the case of the facilities in west Texas, a portion of the Company’s labour is documented workers in Mexico who cross the U.S. border on a daily basis into Texas. There can be no assurance that the Company would not be impacted by any decision relating to control of the U.S./Mexico border. In the case of the facility in Monahans, Texas it is situated in the middle of the Texas oil and gas patch and finding and retaining farm workers at affordable rates is an ongoing challenge. Any shortage of such labour could restrict the ability of the Company to operate its greenhouses and to distribute its product to its customers.

Efforts by labour unions to organize the Company’s employees could divert management attention away from regular day-to-day operations and increase the Company’s operating expenses. Labour unions may make attempts to organize the Company’s non-unionized employees. Management is not aware of any activities relating to union organizations at any of its greenhouse facilities. Management cannot predict which, if any, groups of employees may seek union representation in the future or the outcome of any collective bargaining. If the Company is unable to negotiate acceptable collective bargaining agreements, it may have to wait through “cooling off” periods, which are often followed by union initiated work stoppages, including strikes. Depending on the type and duration of any work stoppage, the Company’s operating expenses could increase significantly, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Risks Associated with Cross-Border Trade

The Company’s Canadian and U.S. product is actively sold cross-border. Markets in the United States and other countries may be affected from time to time by trade rulings and the imposition of customs, duties and other tariffs. There can be no assurance that the Company’s financial condition and results of operations will not be materially adversely affected by trade rulings and the imposition of customs duties or other tariffs in the future. Furthermore, there is no assurance that further trade actions will not be initiated by U.S. producers of greenhouse or field grown vegetables. Any prolonged disruption in the flow of the Company’s product across the U.S.-Canada border could have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

- 22 -

Key Executives

The Company depends heavily on each member of its management team and the departure of a member of management could cause its operating results to suffer. The future success of the Company will depend on, among other things, its ability to keep the services of these key executives and to hire other highly qualified employees at all levels. The Company will compete with other potential employers for employees, and it may not be successful in hiring and retaining the services of executives and other employees that it requires. The loss of the services of, or the Company’s inability to hire, executives or key employees could hinder its business operations and growth.

Uninsured and Underinsured Losses

The Company maintains at all times insurance coverage in respect of potential liabilities of the Company and the accidental loss of value of the assets of the Company from risks, in those amounts, with those insurers, and on those terms as Management considers appropriate to purchase and which is readily available, taking into account all relevant factors including the practices of owners of similar assets and operations, as well as costs.

Not all risks are covered by insurance or the insurance may have high deductibles, and no assurance can be given that insurance will be consistently available or will be consistently available on an economically feasible basis, or that the amounts of insurance will at all times be sufficient to cover each and every loss or claim that may occur involving the assets or operations of the Company and loss payments may not be as timely and responsive as the Company’s working capital needs require. In particular, damage caused by an accidental or natural disaster to any or all of the Company’s key production facilities may result in significant replacement costs and loss of business that may not be fully recoverable or is subject to a high deductible (such as an earthquake in British Columbia) under any insurance policy.

The Company does not carry crop loss or cyber security insurance.

Governmental Regulations

The Company’s operations are governed by a broad range of federal, state, provincial and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, permits, approvals, and common law and other requirements that impose obligations relating to, among other things: worker health and safety; the release of substances into the natural environment; the production, processing, preparation, handling, storage, transportation, disposal, and management of substances (including liquid and solid, non hazardous and hazardous wastes and hazardous materials); and the prevention and remediation of environmental impacts such as the contamination of soil and water (including groundwater). Failure by the Company to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations and policies may subject the Company to civil or regulatory proceedings, including fines, injunctions, administrative orders or seizures, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Also, as a result of the above requirements, the Company’s operations and ownership, management and control of property carry an inherent risk of environmental liability (including potential civil actions, compliance or remediation orders, fines and other penalties), including with respect to the disposal of waste and the ownership, management, control or use of transport vehicles and real estate. Compliance with all such laws and future changes to them is material to the Company. The Company has incurred and will continue to incur significant capital and operating expenditures to comply with such laws. Future discovery of previously unknown environmental issues, including contamination of property underlying or in the vicinity of the Company’s present or former properties or manufacturing facilities, could require the Company to incur material unforeseen expenses. All of these risks and related potential expenses may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Product Liability

As a producer of food products, the Company is subject to potential product liabilities connected with its operations and the marketing and distribution of vegetable products, including liabilities and expenses associated with contaminated or unsafe product. There can be no assurance that the insurance against all such potential liabilities maintained by the Company will be adequate in all cases. In addition, even if a product liability claim was not successful or was not fully pursued, the negative publicity surrounding any such assertion could harm the Company’s reputation with its customers. The consequences of any of the foregoing events may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

- 23 -

Cyber Security

Cyber security has become an increasingly problematic issue for issuers and businesses in Canada and around the world, including the Company. Cyber-attacks against organizations of all sizes are increasing in sophistication and are often focused on financial fraud, compromising sensitive data for inappropriate use or disrupting business operations. A cyber incident is considered to be any adverse event that threatens the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the Company’s information resources. More specifically, a cyber-incident is an intentional attack or an unintentional event that can include gaining unauthorized access to information systems to disrupt operations, corrupt data or steal confidential information. As the Company’s reliance on technology has increased, so have the risks posed to its systems. The Company’s primary risks that could directly result from the occurrence of a cyber-incident include operational interruption, damage to its reputation, damage to the Company’s business relationships, disclosure of confidential information regarding its employees and third parties with whom the Company interacts, and may result in negative consequences, including remediation costs, loss of revenue, additional regulatory scrutiny and litigation. The Company has implemented processes, procedures and controls to help mitigate these risks, but these measures, as well as its increased awareness of a risk of a cyber-incident, do not guarantee that its financial results will not be negatively impacted by such an incident.

Vulnerability to Rising Energy Costs

The Company’s greenhouse operations consume considerable energy for heat and carbon dioxide production, and are vulnerable to rising energy costs. Energy costs have shown volatility, which has and may continue to adversely impact the Company’s cost structure. Should the cost of energy rise, and should the Company face difficulties in sustaining price increases to offset the impact of increasing fuel costs, gross profit margins could be adversely impacted. See “Description of the Business — Energy Management Strategy”.

Risks of Regulatory Change

The Company is subject to extensive laws and regulations with respect to the production, handling, distribution, packaging and labelling of its products. Such laws, rules, regulations and policies are administered by various federal, state, provincial, regional and local health agencies and other governmental authorities. Changes to any of these laws and regulations could have a significant impact on the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to cost effectively comply with future laws and regulations. Failure by the Company to comply with applicable laws and regulations may subject the Company to civil or regulatory proceedings, including fines, injunctions, recalls or seizures, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company voluntarily submits to guidelines set by certain private industry associations. Failure to comply with such guidelines or to adopt more stringent guidelines set by such associations in the future may result in lower sales in certain retail markets and may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Among the regulations to which the Company is subject are those administered by the BCVMC. The BCVMC grants each licensed producer that it regulates an annual quota to produce specified products in a given year. The BCVMC also has the authority to set the prices at which a regulated product may be bought or sold in British Columbia. There can be no assurance that the BCVMC will not alter its quota allocation policy or that the BCVMC will not introduce pricing restrictions in a manner that could adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that a modification of the current regulatory schemes will not have an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations.

Environmental, Health and Safety Risk

The Company’s operations are subject to national, regional and local environmental, health and safety laws and regulations governing, among other things, discharge to air, land and water, the handling and storage of fresh produce, waste disposal, the protection of employee health, safety and the environment. The Company’s greenhouse facilities could experience incidents, malfunctions or other unplanned events that could result in discharges in excess of permitted levels resulting in personal injury, fines, penalties or other sanctions and property damage. The Company must maintain a number of environmental and other permits from various governmental authorities in order to operate.

- 24 -

Failure to maintain compliance with these requirements could result in operational interruptions, fines or penalties, or the need to install potentially costly pollution control technology. Compliance with current and future environmental laws and regulations, which are likely to become more stringent over time, including those governing greenhouse gas emissions, may impose additional capital costs and financial expenditures, which could adversely affect operational results and profitability.

Foreign Exchange Exposure

The Company estimates that approximately 85% of its sales will be recorded in U.S. dollars; as such it is necessary to convert U.S. dollars to Canadian dollars and Euros to pay for some of its production and overhead costs. Any foreign currency hedge arrangements that the Company has entered into may not protect it against any losses which may occur as a result of a fluctuation in the U.S./Canadian dollar or U.S./Euro exchange rates. As a result, such fluctuations may have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial results and the amount of free cash flow available for distribution to shareholders.

Technological Advances

It is possible that more economical or efficient greenhouse production technology than what is currently used by the Company will be developed, thereby potentially adversely affecting the Company’s competitive position.

Accounting Estimates

The Company will be required to make accounting estimates and judgments in the ordinary course of business. Such accounting estimates and judgments will affect the reported amounts of its assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of its operating results during the periods presented. Additionally, the Company will be required to interpret the accounting rules in existence as of the date of the financial statements when the accounting rules are not specific to a particular event or transaction. If the underlying estimates are ultimately proven to be incorrect, or if auditors or regulators subsequently interpret the Company’s application of accounting rules differently, subsequent adjustments could have a material adverse effect on its operating results for the period or periods in which the change is identified. The Company historically carried its land at historical cost. As at December 31, 2016, the Company has changed its policy so that land is now measured at fair value. The land will be revalued every three years. Subsequent adjustments to land value or changes in other accounting estimates could require the Company to restate its financial statements. A restatement of the Company’s financial statements could result in a material change in the price of the Common Shares.

Growth

The Company may not be able to successfully manage its growth. The Company’s growth strategy will place significant demands on its financial, operational and management resources. In order to continue its growth, it will need to add administrative, management and other personnel, and make additional investments in operations and systems. The Company may not be able to locate and train qualified personnel, or do so on a timely basis, or expand its operations and systems to the extent, and in the time, required.

Risks Relating to the Joint Venture

Reliance on Licenses

The Joint Venture’s ability to grow, store and sell cannabis in Canada is solely dependent on its ability to obtain licenses to cultivate and sell cannabis under the ACMPR (a “ License ”) for each of the greenhouses at which it proposes to grow cannabis. Moreover, the introduction of the Cannabis Act, expected to become law in the summer of 2018, is expected to change the licensing requirements required to operate a cannabis cultivation facility, sell cannabis as well as how to conduct additional licensed activities. Under the Cannabis Act, the Joint Venture and the Company may be required to obtain discreet licenses for each licensable activity including cultivation, processing, testing, sale and distribution. Once obtained, each License is subject to ongoing compliance and reporting requirements. Failure to comply with the requirements of a License or any failure to maintain such License would have a material adverse

- 25 -

impact on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. Although the Company believes the Joint Venture will obtain any required Licenses and meet the requirements for extension of any License, there can be no guarantee that any License will be granted, extended or renewed, or if it is extended or renewed, that it will be extended or renewed on the same or similar terms. Should a License not be granted, extended or renewed or should it be renewed on different terms, the business, prospects, financial condition, results of the operation and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company would be materially adversely affected. In addition, should Health Canada have concerns about the change of shareholder status of Pure Sunfarms Canada Corp. upon the Joint Venture exercising its option to buy the shares of Pure Sunfarms Canada Corp., such that the Licenses cannot be lawfully possessed by the Joint Venture, the business, prospects, financial condition, results of the operation and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company would be materially adversely affected.

Regulatory Risks

The activities of the Joint Venture are subject to regulation by governmental authorities, particularly under the ACMPR. Achievement of the Joint Venture’s business objectives are contingent, in part, upon compliance with regulatory requirements enacted by governmental authorities and obtaining all regulatory approvals, where necessary, for the sale of its products. Neither the Company nor the Joint Venture can predict the time required to secure all appropriate regulatory approvals for the Joint Venture or its products, or the extent of testing and documentation that may be required by governmental authorities. Any delays in obtaining, or failure to obtain, regulatory approvals would significantly delay the development of products and could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

The commercial cannabis industry is a new industry in Canada and the Company anticipates that regulations governing the industry will be subject to change. In addition, the proposed Cannabis Act is not yet in force and the regulations to the Cannabis Act have not yet been published. The operations of the Joint Venture will be subject to a variety of laws, regulations, guidelines and policies relating to the manufacture, processing, import, export, management, packaging/labelling, advertising, sale, transportation, storage and disposal of cannabis but also laws and regulations relating to drugs, controlled substances, health and safety, land use, the conduct of operations and the protection of the environment. Any changes to such laws, regulations, guidelines and policies may have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Additionally, although neither the Company nor the Joint Venture has any cannabis-related operations in the United States, as certain members of the Company’s management team are located in the United States, the Company and the Joint Venture may be subject to risks with respect to changes in cannabis regulation and enforcement in the United States. Any changes in the United States regulatory regime, or the scope and extent of the enforcement thereof, could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Unfavourable Publicity or Consumer Perception

The Company believes the cannabis industry is highly dependent upon consumer perception regarding the safety, efficacy and quality of the cannabis produced. Consumer perception of the Joint Venture’s products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention and other publicity regarding the consumption of cannabis products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings or publicity will be favourable to the cannabis market or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity. Future research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity that are perceived as less favourable than, or that question, earlier research reports, findings or publicity could have a material adverse effect on the demand for the Joint Venture’s products and the business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. The Joint Venture’s dependence upon consumer perceptions means that adverse scientific research reports, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other publicity, whether or not accurate or with merit, could have a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture, the demand for the Joint Venture’s products, and the business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. Further, adverse publicity reports or other media attention regarding the safety, efficacy and quality of cannabis in general, or the Joint Venture’s products specifically, or associating the consumption

- 26 -

of cannabis with illness or other negative effects or events, could have such a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture and the Company. Such adverse publicity reports or other media attention could arise even if the adverse effects associated with such products resulted from consumers’ failure to consume such products appropriately or as directed. Such adverse publicity reports or other media attention may also impact the Company’s reputation.

Competition

The Joint Venture may face increased competition from other Licensed Producers as the cannabis industry matures. Increased competition from larger and/or better-financed competitors could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. In addition, there may be pressure for industry consolidation creating larger companies with increased scope. To date, Health Canada has only issued a limited number of licenses under the ACMPR. However, there are a very large number of pending applications for licenses. If demand for cannabis production increases, the Company expects competition to increase, as current and future competitors will begin to offer an increasing number of diversified products. A significant increase in the number of licenses granted could have a material adverse impact on the operations of the Joint Venture. The Joint Venture will require continued investment in research and development, marketing, sales and client support efforts to remain competitive. The Joint Venture and the Company may not have sufficient resources to meet such investment needs which could materially adversely affect the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Risks Inherent in an Agricultural Business

The Joint Venture’s business involves the growing of cannabis, an agricultural product. Such business will be subject to the risks inherent in any agricultural business, such as insects, plant diseases, shortage of qualified labour and similar agricultural risks. Although the Joint Venture will be growing in a controlled environment with climate controlled systems in place, there can be no assurance that natural elements or labour issues will not have a material adverse effect on any such future production, the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Risks Related to the Joint Venture

The Company’s future cash flows, earnings, results of operations and financial condition will in part depend on the Company retaining its ownership interest in the Joint Venture. Under the Joint Venture Agreement, either the Company or Emerald may exercise the Buy-Sell effective on or after June 6, 2019 in certain circumstances, which could result in the Company having to either sell all of its interest in the Joint Venture or acquire all of Emerald’s interest in the Joint Venture. In addition, any dilution of the Company’s interest in the Joint Venture would adversely affect the amount of revenue the Company can derive from the Joint Venture.

The success of the Joint Venture depends on the Company and Emerald maintaining a cooperative working relationship. Since each of Emerald and the Company control half of the board of directors of the Joint Venture, the Company relies on Emerald as an equal partner in the Joint Venture. Any strain on, or breakdown of, the working relationship between the Company and Emerald could adversely affect the governance and operations of the Joint Venture. Since the Buy-Sell becomes effective on or after June 6, 2019 and upon a deadlock of the board of directors of the Joint Venture with respect to Material Decisions or the inability of the board of directors of the Joint Venture to pass an annual budget within a specified timeframe, any breakdown in the relationship between Emerald and the Company may ultimately result in the exercise of the Buy-Sell provision. If the Company is required to sell its interest in the Joint Venture pursuant to the Buy-Sell, this would result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

- 27 -

Reliance on a Single Facility

To date, the Joint Venture’s activities and resources have been primarily focused on the Delta 3 Greenhouse. The Joint Venture expects to continue the focus on this facility for the foreseeable future. Adverse changes or developments affecting the existing facility could have a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture’s ability to continue producing cannabis and the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Conversion of Facility

While the Delta 3 Greenhouse facility received its initial cultivation license on March 2, 2018, it continues to convert the remaining sections of the Delta 3 Greenhouse facility which are subject to additional Health Canada regulatory approvals. There is also no guarantee that Health Canada will approve the entire Delta 3 Greenhouse for cultivation in a timely fashion, or at all. Additionally, the Joint Venture has commenced the Health Canada sales license process, which is crucial for the Joint Venture to be able to sell cannabis under the ACMPR. The delay or denial of such approvals would have a material adverse impact on the business of the Joint Venture and the Company, and may result in the Joint Venture not meeting anticipated or future demand when it arises.

Limited Operating History in the Cannabis Industry

The Joint Venture has yet to generate a profit from its operations. The Joint Venture is therefore subject to many of the risks common to early-stage enterprises, including limitations with respect to personnel, financial, and other resources and lack of significant revenues. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving a return on shareholders’ investment from the operations of the Joint Venture and the likelihood of success must be considered in light of the early stage of operations.

Failure to Realize Growth Strategy

There are risks associated with the Company’s growth strategy, and such strategies may not succeed, as they can be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including some that are discussed elsewhere in these risk factors as well as delays in obtaining, or conditions imposed by, regulatory approvals and quality control and health concerns. As a result, there is a risk that the Company may not have the capacity to meet customer demand or to meet future demand when it arises. If the Company cannot manage growth in the cannabis industry effectively it may have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Research and Development and Product Obsolescence

Rapidly changing markets, technology, emerging industry standards and frequent introduction of new products characterize the Joint Venture’s business. The introduction of new products embodying new technologies, including new manufacturing processes, and the emergence of new industry standards may render the Joint Venture’s cannabis products obsolete, less competitive or less marketable. The process of developing the Joint Venture’s products is complex and requires significant continuing costs, development efforts and third party commitments. The Joint Venture’s failure to develop new technologies and products and the obsolescence of existing technologies could adversely affect the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. The Joint Venture may be unable to anticipate changes in its potential customer requirements that could make the Joint Venture’s existing technology obsolete. The Joint Venture’s success will depend, in part, on its ability to continue to enhance its existing technologies, develop new technology that addresses the increasing sophistication and varied needs of the market, and respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a timely and cost-effective basis. The development of the Joint Venture’s proprietary technology entails significant technical and business risks. The Joint Venture may not be successful in using its new technologies or exploiting its niche markets effectively or adapting its businesses to evolving customer or medical requirements or preferences or emerging industry standards. This may have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

- 28 -

Product Liability

As the Joint Venture’s products are designed to be ingested by humans, the Joint Venture and the Company face a risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if its products are alleged to have caused significant loss or injury. In addition, the sale of the Joint Venture’s cannabis products involves the risk of injury to consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties or product contamination. Previously unknown adverse reactions resulting from human consumption of the Joint Venture’s cannabis products alone or in combination with other medications or substances could occur. The Joint Venture may be subject to various product liability claims, including, among others, that the Joint Venture’s products caused injury or illness and that the Joint Venture provided inadequate instructions for use or inadequate warnings concerning possible side effects or interactions with other substances. A product liability claim or regulatory action against the Joint Venture could result in increased costs, could adversely affect the Joint Venture’s and the Company’s reputation with its clients and consumers generally, and could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. There can be no assurance that the Joint Venture will be able to obtain or maintain product liability insurance on acceptable terms or with adequate coverage against potential liabilities. Such insurance is expensive and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to obtain sufficient insurance coverage on reasonable terms or to otherwise protect against potential product liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of the Joint Venture’s potential products.

Product Recalls

Manufacturers of products are sometimes subject to the recall or return of their products for a variety of reasons, including product defects, such as contamination, unintended harmful side effects or interactions with other substances, packaging safety and inadequate or inaccurate labelling disclosure. If any of the Joint Venture’s cannabis products are recalled due to an alleged product defect or for any other reason, the Joint Venture could be required to incur the unexpected expense of the recall and any legal proceedings that might arise in connection with the recall. The Joint Venture may lose a significant amount of sales and may not be able to replace those sales at an acceptable margin or at all. In addition, a product recall may require significant management attention. Although the Joint Venture will put in place detailed procedures for testing its cannabis products before production of cannabis products begin, there can be no assurance that any quality, potency or contamination problems will be detected in time to avoid unforeseen product recalls, regulatory action or lawsuits. A recall for any of the foregoing reasons could lead to decreased demand for the Joint Venture’s products and could have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company. Additionally, product recalls may lead to increased scrutiny of the Joint Venture’s operations by Health Canada or other regulatory agencies, requiring further management attention and potential legal fees and other expenses.

Fluctuating Prices of Raw Materials

The Joint Venture’s revenues will in large part be derived from the production, sale and distribution of cannabis. The price of production, sale and distribution of cannabis will fluctuate widely due to, among other factors, how young the cannabis industry is and the impact of numerous factors beyond the control of the Joint Venture and the Company including international, economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates, global or regional consumptive patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to new production and distribution developments and improved production and distribution methods. The effect of these factors on the price of product produced by the Joint Venture and, therefore, the economic viability of the Joint Venture’s business, cannot accurately be predicted. This may have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Joint Venture and the Company.

Environmental Regulations and Risks

The Joint Venture’s operations are subject to environmental regulation in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. These regulations mandate, among other things, the maintenance of air and water quality standards and land reclamation. They also set forth limitations on the generation, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which will require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There is

- 29 -

no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect the Joint Venture’s operations. Government approvals and permits are currently, and may in the future be, required in connection with the Joint Venture’s operations. To the extent such approvals are required and not obtained, the Joint Venture may be curtailed or prohibited from its proposed production of cannabis or from proceeding with the development of its operations as currently proposed. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. The Joint Venture and the Company may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of the Joint Venture’s operations and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of applicable laws or regulations. Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing the production of cannabis, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the Joint Venture and the Company, and cause increases in expenses, capital expenditures or production costs or reduction in levels of production or require abandonment or delays in development.

Risks Related to Tax

Potential U.S. Permanent Establishment of VF Canada GP and VF Canada LP

Under the Canada U.S. Tax Convention, a Canadian resident will be subject to U.S. income taxation with respect to the business profits of such Canadian resident attributable to a permanent establishment (“ PE ”) of such Canadian resident located in the United States. A Canadian resident generally will be treated as maintaining a PE in the United States if, among other situations, an agent of the Canadian resident (other than an independent agent acting in the ordinary course of its business) has, and habitually exercises in the United States, authority to conclude contracts in the name of the Canadian resident.

Due to the cross border activity of certain employees of the Company, the United States may deem VF Canada GP and VF Canada LP to maintain a U.S. permanent establishment. In the event that such a U.S. permanent establishment is deemed to exist, VF Canada GP and VF Canada LP generally will be required to file U.S. federal income tax returns and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to the business profits allocable to such permanent establishment.

Advances by VF Opco to U.S. Holdings

In connection with the completion of the Combination Transaction, VF Opco loaned approximately CA$20,000,000 to U.S. Holdings (the “ Advances ”). As at December 31, 2017, CA$9,500,000 of the Advances remained outstanding. U.S. Holdings has claimed interest deductions with respect to the interest paid on the Advances in computing its income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not assert that any portion of the advances was equity in the U.S. borrower for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were successful in this assertion, payments made by U.S. Holdings on such Advances would be treated as non-deductible distributions paid by U.S. Holdings to VF Opco and subject to U.S. federal withholding taxes. The Company anticipates that the amount of any such withholding taxes, net of positive tax consequences that may arise from related circumstances, will not be material. In addition, the deductibility of interest paid or accrued may be subject to various limitations. The Company anticipates that the amount of interest charged on such Advances that might otherwise be claimed as a deduction, will not be material.

Transfer Pricing

Pursuant to an annual sales agreement, VF Opco has agreed to sell some of its inventory to VFLP for resale in the United States, as well as VFLP has agreed to sell some of its inventory to VF Opco for resale in Canada. VF Opco and VFLP take the position that the amounts charged by VF Opco and VFLP for such inventory represent the fair market value of the goods sold. The IRS or the Canada Revenue Agency have and may, in the future, challenge the pricing as being in excess of fair market value. If the IRS or the Canada Revenue Agency were successful in challenging the pricing, VFLP’s U.S. or Canadian taxable income could be increased. The consequences being a higher overall effective tax rate, as well as the potential for higher tax payments.

- 30 -

U.S. Real Property Holding Corporation

If U.S. Holdings is, or has been within the prior five years, a United States real property holding corporation as defined under section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code, any portion of a distribution by U.S. Holdings to VF Opco which is treated as a gain for U.S. federal income tax purpose would be subject to United States federal income and withholding taxes.

DIVIDENDS

Dividend Policy

The Company has no current plans to pay dividends as it is growth focused.

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

December 31, 2009

The Company wishes to adopt certain procedures specified in this Charter.

The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) is a standing committee of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”). The primary function of the Committee is to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to monitoring the Company’s accounting and financial reporting and practices and procedures; the adequacy of the Company’s internal accounting controls and procedures; and for reviewing the quality and integrity of financial statements and other financial information provided by the Company to securityholders and others, and approving the interim financial statements and the related management’s discussion and analysis as delegated by the Board.

The Committee shall be comprised of three or more members of the Board, who all satisfy the “independence” and “financial literacy” requirements of National Instrument 52-110 – Audit Committees (“NI 52-110”), as amended. No member of the Committee shall be an officer or employee of the Company, or any affiliate of the Company.

For the purposes of this Charter, a member of the Committee is “independent” if the member has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Company, as more fully defined in NI 52-110, and a member of the Committee is “financially literate” if he or she has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of the accounting issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the financial statements of the Company.

The members of the Committee shall be annually appointed by the Board and shall serve until such member’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such member’s earlier resignation or removal. The members of the Committee may be removed, with or without cause, by a majority of the Board. Unless a chairperson (a “Committee Chair”) is elected by the full Board, the members of the Committee shall designate a Committee Chair by the majority vote of the full Committee membership. The Committee Chair shall be entitled to vote to resolve any ties. The Committee Chair will chair all regular sessions of the Committee and set the agendas for Committee meetings.

The Committee shall meet at least quarterly or more frequently as circumstances dictate. As part of its goal to foster open communication, the Committee shall periodically meet with management of the Company and the external auditors to discuss any matters that the Committee or each of these groups believes should be discussed. The Committee may meet privately with the auditors, outside counsel of its choosing and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, as necessary. In addition, the Committee may meet with the external auditors and management of the Company quarterly to review the Company’s financial statements in a manner consistent with that outlined in Section 4 of this Charter.

The Committee may invite to its meetings any directors of the Company, management of the Company and such other persons as it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities. The Committee may exclude from its meetings any persons it deems appropriate in order to carry out its responsibilities.

A-1

A majority of the Committee members, but not less than two, will constitute a quorum. A majority of members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present may act on behalf of the Committee.

The Committee shall maintain minutes or other records of meetings and activities of the Committee.

The following functions shall be the common recurring activities of the Committee in carrying out its responsibilities outlined in Section 1 of this Charter. These functions should serve as a guide with the understanding that the Committee may carry out additional functions and adopt additional policies and procedures as may be appropriate in light of changing business, legislative, regulatory, legal and other conditions. The Committee shall also carry out any other responsibilities and duties delegated to it by the Board from time to time related to the purposes of this Committee outlined in Section 1.

The Committee in discharging its oversight role is empowered to investigate any matter of interest or concern that the Committee deems appropriate. In this regard, the Committee shall have the authority to retain outside counsel, accounting, or other advisors for this purpose, including authority to approve the fees payable to such advisors and other terms of retention.

The Committee shall be given full access to the Board, management of the Company, employees of the Company, directly and indirectly responsible for financial reporting, and independent accountants, as necessary, to carry out these responsibilities.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee is not responsible for certifying the financial statements of the Company or guaranteeing the external auditors’ report. The fundamental responsibility for the financial statements and disclosures rests with management of the Company.

Exhibit 99.11

Village Farms International, Inc.

Consolidated Financial Statements

Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016

April 2, 2018

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Shareholders of

Village Farms International, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Village Farms International, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2017 and 2016 and the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity, income (loss) and comprehensive income and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes, which comprise a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s responsibility for the consolidated financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Village Farms International, Inc. and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2017 and 2016, and their financial performance and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expired.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported on the consolidated statements of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

At initial recognition, the Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories depending on the purpose for which the instruments were acquired:

(i) Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss:

A financial asset or liability is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the short-term. Derivatives are also included in this category unless they are designated as hedges.

Financial instruments in this category are recognized initially and subsequently at fair value. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of income (loss). Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are presented in the consolidated statements of income (loss) within gain or loss on derivatives in the period in which they arise. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value through profit or loss are classified as current except for the portion expected to be realized or paid beyond twelve months of the consolidated statements of financial position date, which is classified as non-current.

(ii) Available-for-sale investments:

Available-for-sale investments are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. The Company currently has no available-for-sale investments on its consolidated statements of financial position. Available-for-sale investments are recognized initially at fair value plus transaction costs and are subsequently carried at fair value.

(In thousands of United States dollars, except per share amounts and unless otherwise noted)

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income. Available-for-sale investments are classified as non-current, unless the investment matures within twelve months, or management expects to dispose of them within twelve months.

(iii) Loans and receivables:

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. The Company’s loans and receivables comprise trade receivables, other receivables, and cash and cash equivalents, and are included in current assets due to their short-term nature. Loans and receivables are initially recognized at the amount expected to be received less, when material, a discount to reduce the loans and receivables to fair value. Subsequently, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less a provision for impairment.

(iv) Financial liabilities at amortized cost:

Financial liabilities at amortized cost include trade payables, accrued liabilities, obligations under capital leases and long-term debt. Trade payables and accrued liabilities are initially recognized at the amount required to be paid less, when material, a discount to reduce the payables to fair value. Subsequently, trade payables and accrued liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Long-term debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred which are amortized over the term of the loans. Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within twelve months. Otherwise, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

(v) Derivative financial instruments:

The Company has used derivatives in the form of interest rate swaps to manage risks related to some of its variable rate long-term debt. Derivatives are classified as carried at fair value through profit or loss, are included on the consolidated statements of financial position within liabilities, and are classified as current or non-current based on the contractual terms specific to the instrument. Gains and losses on re-measurement are included in the consolidated statements of income (loss). The Company currently has no derivatives on its consolidated statements of financial position.

Impairment of Financial Assets

At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. The criteria used to determine if objective evidence of an impairment loss exists include:

If such evidence exists, the Company recognizes an impairment loss as follows:

Impairment losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized. Impairment losses on available-for-sale equity instruments are not reversed.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash deposits held with banks, and other highly liquid short-term interest bearing securities with maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost, net of allowance for uncollectible amounts. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts are past due, the Company’s previous loss history and the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company. The Company writes off receivables when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to bad debt expense.

Inventories

Inventories refer to deferred crop costs and other supplies and packaging which are incurred to date on current production and are not defined as a biological asset. Inventories of Company-grown produce consist of raw materials, labour and overhead costs incurred less costs charged to cost of sales throughout the various crop cycles, which end at various times throughout the year. Growing crops are accounted for in accordance with the Company’s policy on biological assets. Cost of sales is based on estimated costs over the crop cycle allocated to both actual and estimated future yields at each period-end date.

The carrying value of agricultural produce is its fair value less costs to sell and complete at the date of harvest and is presented with biological asset on the consolidated statements of financial position. Supplies and packaging are recorded at the lower of cost or replacement cost. The cost of produce inventory purchased from third parties is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Biological Asset

Biological asset consists of the Company’s produce on the vines at year-end. Measurement of the biological asset begins        six weeks prior to harvest as management at this point has visibility on production and expected sales. Costs related to the crop prior to this point are presented in deferred crop costs (inventories). The produce on the vine is measured at fair value less costs to sell and costs to complete, with any change therein recognized in income. Costs to sell include all costs that would be necessary to sell the assets, including finishing and transportation costs.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Recognition and measurement

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, except for land. Land has historically been stated at cost, and is now stated at fair values and will be revalued every three years by an independent external appraiser. Any revaluation gains or losses arising from changes in the fair market value of land is recognized in other comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of income (loss) and revaluation surplus on the statements of financial position.

Property, plant and equipment costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and borrowing costs.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment, and is presented net within gain/loss on disposal of assets in the consolidated statements of income (loss).

Depreciation

Depreciation is based on the cost of an asset less its residual value. Significant components of individual assets are assessed, and if a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of that asset, that component is depreciated separately.

Depreciation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of each component of an item of property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives of the class of assets for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

Construction in process reflects the cost of assets under construction, which are not depreciated until placed into service.

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. For the purpose of testing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units or “CGUs”). An impairment loss is recognized for the amount, if any, by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use (being the present value of the expected future cash flows of the relevant asset or CGUs).

Leased Assets

Leases where the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Other leases are operating leases and rent expenses are recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss).

Borrowing Costs

Borrowing costs attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use. All other borrowing costs are recognized initially at fair value. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the consolidated statements of income (loss) over the year of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of produce in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue from the production and sale of power is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence exists that the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognized as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognized. The timing of the transfer of risks and rewards occurs at the time the produce has been successfully delivered, the risk of loss has passed to the customer, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Income Taxes

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognized in the consolidated statements of income (loss), except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated statements of financial position dates in the relevant tax jurisdiction. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated statements of financial position dates and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. Offsetting of deferred income tax assets and liabilities occurs only when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company grants stock options and performance-based restricted share units (“RSUs”) to certain employees and directors.

Stock options generally vest over three years (33% per year following the grant date) and expire after ten years. Each tranche in an award is considered a separate award with its own vesting period. The fair value of each tranche is measured at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Compensation expense is recognized over the tranche’s vesting period by increasing contributed surplus based on the number of awards expected to vest. The number of awards expected to vest is reviewed at least annually, with any impact recognized immediately.

The RSUs granted are expected to be settled using the Company’s own equity and issued from treasury. The equity-settled share-based compensation is measured at the fair value of the Company’s common shares as at the grant date in accordance with the terms of the RSU Plan. The fair value determined at the grant date is charged to income on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or when performance based vesting conditions are met, based on the estimate of the number of RSUs that will eventually vest and be converted to common shares, with a corresponding increase in equity.

Provisions

Provisions, where applicable, are recognized in accrued liabilities when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are measured at management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the end of the reporting period, and are discounted to present value where the effect is material.

Income Per Share

Basic income per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The treasury stock method is used for the calculation of diluted income per share. Under this method, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of dilutive share options are applied to repurchase common shares at the average market price for the period. Share options are dilutive when the average market price of the common shares during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options.

Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimation Uncertainties

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. These estimates and judgments have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments

i) Estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment

Management estimates the useful lives of property, plant and equipment based on the period during which the assets are expected to be available for use. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for depreciation of property, plant and equipment for any period are affected by these estimated useful lives. The estimates are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations change as a result of physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limits to use. It is possible that changes in these factors may cause significant changes in the estimated useful lives of the Company’s property, plant and equipment in the future.

ii) Financial instruments

The Company’s over-the-counter derivative includes an interest rate swap used to economically hedge exposure to variable cash flows associated with interest payments on the Company’s borrowings. Management utilizes a third party to value the derivative at each reporting period; the estimates and assumptions used by the third party are based on available market data which includes market yields and counterparty credit spreads.

iii) Biological asset

The fair value of the biological asset is derived using a discounted cash flow model. Management estimates the sales price of produce on the vine by utilizing actual sales prices for the first six weeks of the next year, and estimates the costs to sell and complete by projecting yields and crop, packaging, and transportation costs. The estimated costs are subject to fluctuations based on the timing of prevailing growing conditions and market conditions.

iv) Inventories and cost of sales

Cost of sales is based upon incurred costs, and estimated costs to be incurred, of each crop allocated to both actual and estimated future yields over each crop cycle. The estimates of future yields are reviewed at each reporting period for accuracy. However, numerous factors such as weather, diseases and prevailing market conditions can impact the estimation of pricing, costs, and future yields. The estimated costs to be incurred are based on references to historical costs and updated for discussions with suppliers and senior management. Inventories include the actual cost of the crop not yet defined as a biological asset, packaging supplies, and purchased produce, less the amounts that have been expensed in cost of sales.    

v) Income taxes and deferred income tax assets or liabilities

Management uses judgment and estimates in determining the appropriate rates and amounts in recording deferred taxes, giving consideration to timing and probability. Actual taxes could vary significantly from these estimates as a result of future events, including changes in income tax law or the outcome of reviews by tax authorities and related appeals. The resolution of these uncertainties and the associated final taxes may result in adjustment to the Company’s tax assets and tax liabilities. The recognition of deferred income tax assets is subject to judgment and estimation over whether these amounts can be realized. Management estimates, at this time, that the hail storm insurance proceeds received are not currently taxable, but if certain conditions are not met, a portion could become taxable in the future.

The IASB periodically issues new standards and amendments or interpretations to existing standards. The new pronouncements listed below are those policy changes that management considers relevant to the Company now or in the future. This is not intended to be a complete list of new pronouncements made during the year.

IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39, Financial Instruments-Recognition and Measurement . The new Standard limits the number of categories for classification of financial assets to two: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. The requirements for financial liabilities are largely in line with IAS 39. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments. Equity instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The ability to recognize unquoted equity instruments at cost under IAS 39 is eliminated. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. IFRS 9 is not expected to have a material impact on amounts recorded on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , replaces IAS 18, Revenue , and IAS 11, Construction Contracts , and the related Interpretations on revenue recognition. IFRS 15, issued in May 2014, establishes the requirements for recognizing revenue that apply to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of the Standards on leases, insurance contracts, and financial instruments. IFRS 15 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Management has evaluated the impact of IFRS 15 and does not expect it to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

IFRS 16, Leases , issued in January 2016, replaces IAS 17, Leases, and related Interpretations. IFRS 16 establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract, ie the customer (lessee) and the supplier (lessor). IFRS 16 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted only if the company also applies IFRS 15. Management is currently assessing the impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements along with the timing of adoption of IFRS 16. Management expects that

IFRS 16 will result in the following: a) an increase in assets and liabilities as fewer leases will be expensed as payments are made; b) an increase in depreciation expenses; and c) an increase in cash flow from operating activities as these lease payments will be recorded as financing outflows in the cash flow statements.

IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment, allows for a policy choice for subsequent measurement of property, plant and equipment to be based on historical cost or fair value. The Company has historically carried its land at historical cost. As at December 31, 2016, the Company has changed its policy so that land is initially measured at historical cost but subsequently measured at fair value. Management concluded that given significant changes in the fair market value of the Company’s land assets, the revaluation method of accounting for land used in production is a more appropriate accounting policy than historical cost. IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors , allows for prospective application of this policy change and therefore the policy change has been applied to the year ended December 31, 2016 only.

IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements , and IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures establishes the criteria for accounting for joint ventures. Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The equity method involves recording the initial investment at cost and subsequently adjusting the carrying value of the investment for the proportionate share of the profit or loss, other comprehensive income or loss and any other changes in the joint venture’s net assets such as dividends. At each consolidated balance sheet date, the Company will consider whether there is objective evidence of impairment in joint venture. If there is such evidence, the Company will determine the amount of impairment to record, if any, in relation to the joint venture.

The cost of inventories recognized as expense and included in cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2017 amounted to $120,509 (2016 - $118,395). The biological asset adjustment reclassifies actual costs incurred for the biological asset from inventories to biological asset on the consolidated statements of financial position.
