2	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Statement of Compliance

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (“interim financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and its interpretations, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), as applicable to interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statement disclosures and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Basis of Presentation

The interim financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The accounting policies have been applied consistently in all material respects. These interim financial statements have been prepared by applying the same accounting policies, assessments of estimates and judgments, and methods of computation as compared with the most recent annual consolidated financial statements with the exception of IFRS 16, Leases as described in Note 3.

Basis of Measurement

The interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following material items in the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position (“interim statement of financial position”):

•

biological assets are measured at fair value less costs to sell;

•

land is valued at fair market value; and

•

marketable equity securities are measured at fair value through profit and loss.

Functional and Presentation Currency

The functional currency for each entity included in these interim financial statements is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. These interim financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”) which have been rounded to the nearest thousands, except per share amounts. Currency conversion to U.S. dollars is performed in accordance with IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.

3	CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions.

Amendments to 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 statement of financial position date, the Company will consider whether there is objective evidence that its investment in the joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence of impairment, the Company will determine the amount of the impairment and a loss will be recorded in the condensed consolidated interim statement of income (loss) (“interim statement of income (loss)”). The adoption of the amendments to IFRS 11 did not have and impact on the Company’s interim financial statements.

IFRS 16, Leases, was issued in January 2016 to replace 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, i.e. the customer (lessee) and the supplier (lessor) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16 using the updated modified retrospective transition approach and did not restate prior periods. The Company’s classes of assets include land leases, building leases and equipment leases.

On adoption, the Company recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as ‘operating leases’ under the principles of IAS 17, Leases. These lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the borrowing rate of the Company. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on January 1, 2019 was 6.25%. These leases are included in right-of-use assets, short-term lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Additionally, the Company has elected the short-term lease exception for all classes of assets, and does not apply the recognition requirements for leases of 12 months or less, and recognizes lease payments for short-term leases as expense either straight-line over the lease term or as incurred depending on whether the lease payments are fixed or variable. These elections are applied consistently for all leases.

Depreciation related to the greenhouse facilities and equipment is expensed in cost of sales. Land is the only item of property, plant and equipment that is stated at fair values. On March 31, 2019, Pure Sunfarms exercised its option to acquire the Delta 2 assets and operations. Delta 2 land was disposed of as part of that transaction (note 7). The revaluation surplus related to Delta 2 of $1.0 million, net of taxes, that was previously recorded as a component of equity, was reclassified and included as part of the gain on disposal of assets recorded in the interim statements of income (loss).

7	INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES

Pure Sunfarms Corp.

On June 6, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement to form Pure Sunfarms, a B.C. corporation, with Emerald Health Therapeutics Inc. (“Emerald”). The purpose of Pure Sunfarms is to produce, market and distribute cannabis in Canada. Village Farms has a 50% ownership interest in Pure Sunfarms in the form of common shares. The Company has concluded that the agreement constitutes a joint arrangement where joint control is shared with Emerald and therefore has accounted for Pure Sunfarms in accordance with IFRS 11 and IAS 28, using the equity method.

On July 5, 2018, the Company and Emerald Health Therapeutics Canada Inc. (a subsidiary of Emerald) (together, the “Shareholders”) entered into a Shareholder Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Pure Sunfarms, whereby, as at September 30, 2019, the Shareholders had each contributed $9,959 (CA$13,000) in the form of a demand loan to Pure Sunfarms. Effective January 1, 2019, the loan amounts bear simple interest at the rate of 6.2% per annum, calculated semi-annually. Interest will accrue and be payable upon demand being made by both Shareholders (see note 10).

On March 31, 2019, Pure Sunfarms exercised its option to utilize the Delta 2 assets and operations. The contribution of the assets has been accounted for as a disposal of the land, greenhouse facility and other assets in exchange for 25,000,000 common shares of Pure Sunfarms. This was a non-cash transaction, and it was estimated that the fair value of the land, building and other assets was $18.7 million (CA$25 million) at the date of contribution. The Company recognized a gain of $13.6 million on the contribution of the fixed assets. The Company had previously recorded a fair value increase on the Delta 2 land being contributed (2016 - $2.0 million), which was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes of $1.0 million. As a result

of the contribution of the Delta 2 land, this amount has been recycled to the interim statements of income, and has been included in the gain noted above. As at September 30, 2019, the total investment in Pure Sunfarms of US$54.2 million is recorded in the interim statements of financial position. Final determination with respect to the transfer of the land, building and equipment will not be made until year end. As such, the investment and related gain on disposal of assets may be adjusted at year end.

Pursuant to the terms of a Supply Agreement that Pure Sunfarms has with Emerald, Emerald has a right to purchase 40% of Pure Sunfarms cannabis production at a fixed price, subject to the terms and conditions of the Supply Agreement. To the extent that Emerald does not fulfill its purchase obligation, Pure Sunfarms is able to sell that excess production to other parties in the open market. The Supply Agreement stipulates that Emerald is required to pay Pure Sunfarms the difference between the fixed price and the selling price realized from other parties. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, Emerald did not fulfill its purchase obligation and Pure Sunfarms sold the product on the open market to arm’s length parties at prices lower than the fixed price in the Supply Agreement. As a result, under the terms of the Supply Agreement, Pure Sunfarms invoiced Emerald for the difference which amounted to approximately CA$7.2 million. On October 15, 2019, Emerald issued a press release that indicated they do not agree that they have any liability with respect to these amounts.

Under IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (paragraph 9 (e)), a customer needs to have an intent and ability to pay in order for a company to recognize revenue. Given that Emerald has issued a press release indicating that they do not agree that they have a liability with respect to these amounts, Pure Sunfarms has determined that all of the criteria under IFRS 15 to recognize this revenue were not met as Emerald has demonstrated that they do not have an intent to pay, and as a result has not recorded the revenue related to these amounts.

9	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s financial instruments included cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable, other receivables, patronage stock, accounts payable, other current liabilities and notes payable. Due to the short-term maturities of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair value at the respective statement of financial position dates. The carrying value of the notes receivable and notes payable approximate their fair value based on a comparison with the prevailing market interest rates. The fair values of the Company’s notes receivable and notes payable are level 2 measurements in the fair value hierarchy. All other financial assets and liabilities are level 1.

There were no financial instruments categorized as Level 3 as at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between levels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Interest income, interest expense and gains and losses from loans, receivables and other financial liabilities are recognized in the interim statements of income (loss). The following table summarizes interest income and expense for the three and nine months ended September 30:


	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2019		2018		2019		2018
Interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents	$	—	$	12	$	25	$	15
Interest income earned on other financial assets	$	304	$	—	$	626	$	—
Interest expense from other financial liabilities	$	697	$	635	$	2,154	$	1,921

Management of financial risks

The Company, through its financial assets and liabilities, is exposed to various risks. The following provides a measurement of some of these risks as at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company uses financial instruments only for risk management purposes, not for generating trading profit.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that the Company will incur a loss due to the failure by its customers or other parties to meet their contractual obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables and amounts due from joint ventures. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by placing its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions.

The Company’s trade receivables had one customer that represented more than 10% of the balance of trade receivables, representing 11.1% of the balance of trade receivables as at September 30, 2019 (December 31, 2018 – two customer represented 13.8% and 11.5%). The Company believes that its expected credit losses are limited due to the protection afforded to the Company by the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (the “PACA”) for its sales in the United States, which represent the majority of the Company’s annual sales. The PACA protection gives a claim filed under the PACA first lien on all PACA assets (which include cash and trade receivables of the debtor).

As at September 30, 2019, the allowance for doubtful accounts balance was calculated based on the expected credit loss model and expected credit losses continues to be insignificant.

As at September 30, 2019, 98.1% (December 31, 2018 – 90.3%) of trade receivables were outstanding less than 30 days, 0.9% (December 31, 2018 – 8.3%) were outstanding for between 30 and 90 days and the remaining 1.0% (December 31, 2018 – 1.4%) were outstanding for more than 90 days. Trade receivables are considered past due based on the contract terms agreed to with a customer. Aged receivables that are past due are not considered impaired unless customer specific information indicates otherwise.

ii)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its long-term debt, for which the interest rates charged fluctuate based on the 90-day LIBOR rate. If interest rates had been 50 basis points higher, the net income during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 would have been lower by $84. This represents $84 in increased interest expense (2018 – $138).

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

iii)

Foreign exchange risk

As at September 30, 2019, the Canadian/U.S. foreign exchange rate was CA$1.00 = US$0.7552 (December 31, 2018 – US$0.7336). Assuming that all other variables remain constant, an increase of $0.10 in the Canadian dollar would have the following impact on the ending balances of certain interim statements of financial position items at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 with the net foreign exchange gain or loss directly impacting net income (loss).

Net foreign exchange gain (loss)	$	1,122		$	1,936

iv)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they fall due. The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at September 30, 2019:


Financial liabilities	Total		1 year		2-3 years		4-5 years		More than 5 years
Long-term debt	$	35,604	$	3,688	$	31,699	$	217	$	—

Trade payables		9,270		9,270		—		—		—

Total	$	61,049	$	24,427	$	35,162	$	1,460	$	—

It is the Company’s intention to meet these obligations through the collection of current accounts receivable and cash from sales. If the current resources and cash generated from operations are insufficient to satisfy its obligations, the Company may seek to issue additional equity or to arrange debt or other financing. In addition, as at September 30, 2019, the Company has an operating credit facility of up to CA$13,000, of which US$4,000 was drawn as at September 30, 2019, less outstanding letters of credit totaling US$150 and CA$38.

10	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES

On February 13, 2019, the Company announced that Pure Sunfarms had entered into a credit agreement with Bank of Montreal, as agent and lead lender, and Farm Credit Canada, as lender, in respect of a CA$20 million secured non-revolver term loan (the “Credit Facility”).

15	INCOME PER SHARE

Basic income per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares in issue during the year excluding common shares purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares.


	Three months ended September 30,						Nine months ended September 30,
	2019			2018			2019		2018
Net (loss) income attributable to owners of the Company	$	(5,072	)	$	(1,989	)	$	12,464	$	(5,415	)
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding (thousands)		48,845			44,475			48,650		44,473

Basic (loss) income per share	$	(0.10	)	$	(0.04	)	$	0.26	$	(0.12	)

Diluted income per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential common shares. The Company’s share options are potentially dilutive to common shares. A calculation is done to determine the number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average market share price of the Company’s shares for the year) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of shares calculated above is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the exercise of the share options. If dilutive effect is less than zero, then issuance is anti-dilutive and is excluded from dilutive income per share calculation.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, there were options to purchase 310,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that were excluded from the diluted income per share computation because the impact of the assumed exercise of such stock options would have been anti-dilutive during the respective periods. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, there were no options excluded from the diluted income per share computation because the impact of the assumed exercise of such stock options would have been anti-dilutive.

16	SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

In April 2019, the Company completed a bought deal offering of 1,000,000 common shares of the Company at an offering price of CA$20.00 per offered share for net aggregate proceeds to the Company of approximately CA$18,700 after deducting offering fees of CA$1,300.

The Company has a share-based compensation plan. The maximum number of common shares that can be issued upon the exercise of options granted is equal to 10% of the aggregate number of common shares issued and outstanding from time to time. The term during which an option may be exercised is 10 years from the date of the grant. Options generally vest at a rate of 33% per year, beginning one year following the grant date of the options. Share-based compensation expense for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $867 (2018 - $190) and $3,190 (2018 - $447), respectively, was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses and the corresponding amount credited to contributed surplus.

Introduction

This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and accompanying notes of Village Farms International, Inc. (“VFF” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (the “Interim Financial Statements”). The information provided in this MD&A is current to November 14, 2019 unless otherwise noted.

VFF is a corporation existing under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries as at September 30, 2019 were Village Farms Canada Limited Partnership (“VFCLP”), Village Farms, L.P. (“VFLP”) and VF Clean Energy, Inc. (“VFCE”). On June 6, 2017, VFF entered into a shareholders’ agreement in respect of the operation and governance of Pure Sunfarms Corp. (“Pure Sunfarms”) in which VFF owns a 50% interest. On February 27, 2019, VFF entered into a joint venture agreement in respect of the operation and governance of Village Fields Hemp USA LLC (“VFH”) in which VFF owns a 65% interest. On May 21, 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement in respect of Arkansas Valley Green and Gold Hemp (“AVGGH”). AVGGH is 60% owned by VFF, 35% owned by Arkansas Valley Hemp, LLC (“AV Hemp”) and 5% owned by VFH.

The preparation of interim financial data requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the annual financial data, are disclosed in note 2 of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer of VFF (“CEO”). Based on the aggregation criteria in IFRS 8, Operating Segments, the operating segments of the Company are treated as two reporting segments.

Functional and Presentation Currency

The functional currency for each entity included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Those consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”) which have been rounded to the nearest thousands, except per share amounts. Currency conversion to U.S. dollars is performed in accordance with IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. All figures contained within are in U.S Dollars and in hundreds of thousands of U.S. Dollars unless otherwise noted.

Business Overview

Management believes the Company is one of the largest producers, marketers and distributors of premium-quality, greenhouse-grown tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumbers in North America. These premium products are grown in sophisticated, highly intensive agricultural greenhouse facilities located in British Columbia and Texas. The Company also markets and distributes premium tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers produced under exclusive arrangements with other greenhouse producers. The Company primarily markets and distributes under its Village Farms^® brand name to

- 2 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

retail supermarkets and dedicated fresh food distribution companies throughout the United States and Canada. It currently operates two distribution centres, one in the United States and one in Canada. Since its inception, the Company has been guided by a sustainable agriculture policy which integrates four main goals – environmental health, economic profitability, social equality and economic equality.

The Company, through its subsidiary VFCE, owns and operates a 7.0-megawatt power plant from landfill gas that generates electricity and provides thermal heat, in colder months, to one of the Company’s adjacent British Columbia greenhouse facilities and sells electricity to the British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority (“BC Hydro”).

In June 2017, the Company entered into a joint venture with Emerald Health Therapeutics, Inc. (together with its affiliates, “Emerald”). The joint venture was formed by way of a corporation named “Pure Sunfarms Corp.”, a licensed producer and supplier of cannabis products to be sold to other licensed providers and provincial governments across Canada and internationally. On March 8, 2018, Pure Sunfarms was granted a cultivation license and on July 30, 2018 a sales license, both under the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (“ACMPR”) by Health Canada (repealed October 17, 2018 and replaced by the Cannabis Act, S.C. 2018, c. 16). On March 8, 2019 Pure Sunfarms received its seventh amendment from Health Canada, which approved all 16 grow rooms for a total of 1.0 million square feet of cultivation. On March 31, 2019, Pure Sunfarms exercised its option on the existing 1.1 million square foot Delta 2 greenhouse facility currently owned by VFF in Delta, British Columbia. The Delta 2 greenhouse facility is a nearly identical “sister” facility immediately adjacent to the 1.1 million square foot Delta 3 greenhouse facility. The addition of the Delta 2 greenhouse facility will double Pure Sunfarms’ total production area to 2.2 million square feet and, with conservatively targeted annual production of approximately 75,000 kilograms of dried cannabis, will double its annual cannabis production potential to approximately 150,000 kilograms. On September 6, 2019, Pure Sunfarms received from Health Canada certain amendments to its license required to permit the sale and distribution of packaged, Pure Sunfarms-branded dried cannabis products directly to private retailers and provincial/territorial wholesalers. Pure Sunfarms has since begun shipping branded dried cannabis products to the Ontario Cannabis Retail Corporation (operating as the Ontario Cannabis Store) (the “OCS”) and the British Columbia Liquor Distribution Branch (the “BCLDB”).

In February 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture with Nature Crisp LLC (“Nature Crisp”). The joint venture was formed by way of a limited liability corporation named “Village Fields Hemp USA LLC” for the cultivation of high-cannabidiol (“CBD”) hemp and CBD extraction in multiple states throughout the United States.

In May 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture with AV Hemp. The joint venture was formed by way of a limited liability corporation named Arkansas Valley Green and Gold Hemp for the cultivation of high-CBD hemp and CBD extraction in Colorado.

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

•

utilizing integrated pest management techniques that incorporate “beneficial bugs” to control unwanted pests. The use of natural biological control technology keeps plants and their products virtually free of chemical agents. The process includes regular monitoring techniques for threat identification and the development and execution of appropriate, tailored responses;

•

capturing rainwater from various greenhouse roofs for irrigation purposes;

•

capturing landfill gas under a long-term contract with the City of Vancouver, to generate and sell electricity to BC Hydro and provide thermal heat for one of the Company’s adjacent greenhouses;

•

recycling water and nutrients during the production process;

•

growing plants in a natural medium, including coconut fibre and rock wool, as opposed to growing in the soil and depleting nutrients; and

•

using dedicated computer systems which monitor and control virtually all aspects of the growing environment, thereby maximizing the efficient use of energy.

The Company’s assets, as of the reporting date, include six operating produce greenhouses providing approximately 801,624 square metres (or approximately 203 acres) of growing space in Canada and the United States.

- 3 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

All the Company’s greenhouses are constructed of glass, aluminum and steel, and are located on land owned or leased by the Company. The Company also has marketing agreements with growers in Canada, the United States and Mexico that currently operate approximately 808,000 square metres (or approximately 200 acres) of growing area.

The following table outlines the Company’s greenhouse facilities:


	Growing Area
Greenhouse Facility	Square Feet		Square Metres		Total Facility Acres		Products Grown
Marfa, TX (2 greenhouses)		2,527,312		234,795		60	Tomatoes on-the-vine, beefsteak tomatoes, specialty tomatoes
Fort Davis, TX (1 greenhouse)		1,684,874		156,530		40	Specialty tomatoes
Monahans, TX (1 greenhouse) (Permian Basin facility)		1,272,294		118,200		30	Tomatoes on-the-vine, long English cucumbers
Delta, BC (2 greenhouses) **		3,144,128		292,099		73	Tomatoes on-the-vine, beefsteak tomatoes, specialty tomatoes

Total		8,628,608		801,624		203

As of August 1, 2019, tomato production in 5,115 square meters of the facility has been discontinued to allow Pure Sunfarms to start the conversion of this space to cannabis production. An additional 43,219 square meters of tomato production has been discontinued as of October 7, 2019 for the purpose of continued conversion of the facility to cannabis production. The Company expects to use the remaining 48,334 square meters of the facility (half of the facility) for tomato production until the end of the 2019 crop season, at which time the entire facility will be converted to cannabis production.

Produce Marketing

The Company is a leading marketer of premium-quality, value-added, branded greenhouse-grown produce in North America, and is a significant producer of the following tomato types: tomatoes on-the-vine, beefsteak, cocktail, grape, cherry, 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), other specialty tomatoes under exclusive agreements and long English cucumbers at its facilities. The Company also distributes and markets 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.

The Company has distribution capabilities that it believes exceed those of most of its competitors in the North American greenhouse vegetable industry. With leased distribution centres in Texas and British Columbia, the Company provides its customers with flexibility in purchasing. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company had an on-time delivery record of approximately 98.9%, 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. The Company’s year-round production capability 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^®.

- 4 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

•

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 Retailer Customers. Greenhouse produce (produce grown by the Company plus supply partner produce) is sold directly to supermarket chains, including, Associated Grocers, Associated Wholesale Grocers, BJ’s Wholesale Club Inc., Fred Meyer, Giant Eagle, HEB Grocery Company, The Kroger Co., Loblaw Companies Limited, Publix Super Markets, Inc., Safeway Inc., Sobeys Inc., Sam’s Club, Trader Joe’s, United Supermarkets, Unified Western Grocers, 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.

Pure Sunfarms

On June 6, 2017, the Company and Emerald formed a new corporation named “Pure Sunfarms Corp.”. The Company and Emerald each own 50% of the equity in Pure Sunfarms. VFF contributed one of its 25-acre greenhouse facilities in Delta, British Columbia as its equity contribution and Emerald contributed CA$20,000 to fund the conversion of the facility, which was fully funded as of April 2018. Pure Sunfarms has commenced the cultivation of cannabis in the licensed portion of the facility and received its sales license for the facility on July 30, 2018 from Health Canada. Pure Sunfarms commenced the selling and distribution of cannabis in September 2018. On September 6, 2019, Pure Sunfarms received from Health Canada certain amendments to its license required to permit the sale and distribution of packaged, Pure Sunfarms-branded dried cannabis products directly to private retailers and provincial/territorial wholesalers.

On July 5, 2018, the Company and Emerald (together, the “Shareholders”) entered into a shareholder loan agreement with Pure Sunfarms, whereby, as at September 30, 2019, the Shareholders had each contributed CA$13,000 (US$9,959) in the form of a demand loan to Pure Sunfarms. Effective January 1, 2019, the loan amounts bear simple interest at the rate of 6.2% per annum, calculated semi-annually applied retroactively, commencing on the date the loan amount was advanced. Interest will accrue and be payable upon demand being made by either Shareholder. From inception until January 1, 2019 the loan amounts bore interest at the rate of 8%.

On March 31, 2019, Pure Sunfarms exercised its option on the existing 1.1 million square foot Delta 2 greenhouse facility currently owned by VFF in Delta, British Columbia. The Delta 2 greenhouse facility is a nearly identical “sister” facility immediately adjacent to the 1.1 million square foot Delta 3 greenhouse facility. The addition of the Delta 2 greenhouse facility will double Pure Sunfarms’ total production area to 2.2 million square feet and, with conservatively targeted annual production of approximately 75,000 kilograms of dried cannabis, will double its annual cannabis production potential to approximately 150,000 kilograms. Pure Sunfarms also expects to benefit from further economies of scale resulting from the concentration of 2.2 million square feet of production area at a single location, which will further support the Company’s goal to be the high-quality, low-cost cannabis producer in Canada. The existing automated propagation operation (nursery) in the Delta 3 greenhouse facility will serve the Delta 2 greenhouse facility, enabling more of the footprint of the Delta 2 greenhouse facility to be devoted to flower rooms than in the Delta 3 greenhouse facility, which is expected to generate further cost efficiencies.

VFH

On February 27, 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture with Nature Crisp to form VFH, for the objective of outdoor cultivation of high percentage CBD hemp and CBD extraction in multiple states throughout the United States (the “VFH Joint Venture Agreement”). VFH is 65% owned by the Company and 35% owned by Nature Crisp. Under the terms of the VFH Joint Venture Agreement, the Company is expecting to contribute approximately US$15 million to VFH for start-up costs and working capital. Capital investment for extraction capabilities is estimated to be between

- 5 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

US$7 million to US$10 million and is dependent on future decisions with respect to the locations of hemp production and the extraction operations and federal and state regulations.

AVGGH

On May 21, 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture with AV Hemp for the objective of outdoor cultivation of high percentage cannabidiol (CBD) hemp and CBD extraction in Colorado (the “AVGGH Joint Venture Agreement”). The joint venture, AVGGH, is 60% owned by the Company, 35% owned by AV Hemp, and 5% owned by VFH.

Under the terms of the AVGGH Joint Venture Agreement, the Company will lend approximately US$5 million to AVGGH for start-up costs and working capital. The loans will bear simple interest at the rate of 8% per annum, calculated monthly. To the extent cash is available from positive cash flow, the AVGGH will seek to repay the Company with respect to any such loans in the range of $2 million to $5 million in the initial two years following the formation of AVGGH.

Reporting Requirements

Effective January 1, 2020, the Company is required to comply with Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements applicable to U.S. domestic issuers. This will also require the Company’s financial statements and financial data to be presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Accordingly, the Company will file its annual report, as a U.S. domestic issuer, on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under U.S. GAAP and regular periodic reports under both Canadian and U.S. law thereafter using U.S. GAAP. In March 2020 the Company expects to re-file its historical 2018 and 2019 annual and interim financial statements presented in accordance with U.S GAAP.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

Sales

Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased by ($1,391), or (4%), to $38,293 from $39,684 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $2,004, or 5%, to $38,866 from $36,862 for the three months ended September 30, 2018; primarily due to an increase in cost per pound from the Company’s Texas facilities, which was due to production issues that caused decreases in production. The decrease in production for the crop causes an increase in cost per pound as most costs are fixed and, as production decreases, cost per pound increases.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $297, or 9%, to $3,739 from $3,442 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is due to accounting costs, related to the Company’s dual listing on the Nasdaq in February 2019, as well as to SOX implementation legal fees and consulting fees related to the Company’s growth initiatives involving its new crops in both Canada and United States.

Stock Compensation Expenses

Stock compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $868 and $190, respectively. The incremental increase in stock compensation is related to the vesting of stock options in early 2019 and June 2018 that have higher exercise and strike prices relative to options granted in prior years.

Change in Biological Asset

The net change in fair value of the biological asset was ($627) for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to ($1,189) for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The improvement in the change in the biological asset was due to a lower starting value for the for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. The fair value of the biological asset as at September 30, 2019 was $4,414 as compared to $5,119 as at September 30, 2018 due to lower production and lower average selling price in early October 2019 versus October 2018.

(Loss) from Operations

Loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased ($3,808) to ($5,807) from ($1,999) for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increased loss is due to an increase in cost of sales, a decrease in sales due to lower production as well as an increase in selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased by ($12) to $697 from $709 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease is due to a decrease in the outstanding principal balances.

Share of Income from Joint Ventures

The Company’s share of loss from its Pure Sunfarms joint venture for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was ($918) compared to a loss of ($28) for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net loss is due to a decrease in the biological asset partially offset by gross margin from sales.

The Company’s share of income from VFH for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $765 compared to $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 is due to a change in biological asset offset by selling, general and administrative cost and provision for income taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, VFH did not have production operations

The Company’s share of loss from AVGGH for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was ($18) compared to $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The loss primarily consists of salaries and other pre-production phase administrative costs.

Recovery of Income Taxes

Recovery of income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $1,421 compared to $712 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The income tax recovery increase is due to the increase in the loss from the Company’s produce operations. Pure Sunfarms, VFH and AVGGH are all reported post-tax and therefore do not factor into the Company’s tax calculation.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2019 decreased by ($3,083) to ($5,072) from ($1,989) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to a loss from Pure Sunfarms and an increase in the loss from the Company’s produce operations.

EBITDA

EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $1,480 to $2,377 from $897 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily as a result of an increase in the Company’s share of EDITDA from Pure Sunfarms partially offset by an increase in the loss from operations for the Company’s produce business. See the EBITDA calculation in “Non-IFRS Measures – Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA”.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

Sales

Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $299, or less than 1%, to $111,512 compared to $111,213 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net sales is due to an increase in supply partner revenues of 12% over the comparable period in 2018 partially offset by a (14%) decrease in the Company’s production volume. The decrease in the Company’s production volume is primarily due to a clean-out in one of Company’s facilities (which did not occur in the last three years) and ongoing disease pressure at the Company’s Texas facilities.

The net price for all tomato pounds sold increased by 1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Pepper prices increased 11% and pounds increased 19% over the

Village Farms International, Inc.

comparable period in 2018, and cucumber prices decreased (11%) and pieces decreased (7%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 over the comparable period in 2018.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $10,796, or 10%, to $114,711 from $103,915 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, due to an increase in supply partner purchases of 12% and an increase in the cost per pound of the Company’s own grown product in Texas due to decreased pounds and higher labor costs, due to the higher utilization of hourly rate contract laborers versus VFF employees for the 2018/2019 crop as compared to the prior crop.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $1,196, or 11%, to $11,682 from $10,486 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is due to public company costs such as investor relations, legal, accounting and listing fees.

Stock Compensation Expenses

Stock compensation expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $3,190 compared to $447 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The incremental increase in stock compensation is primarily related to the vesting of performance share grants in the first quarter of 2019 that were earned in relation to developments in Pure Sunfarms, as well as the ongoing incremental costs of issuing higher valued stock options.

Change in Fair Value of Biological Asset, Net

The net change in the fair value of biological asset for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 improved by $895 to ($97) from ($992) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in the change in the biological asset was due to a lower starting value for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

(Loss) from Operations

(Loss) from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased ($13,541) to ($18,168) from ($4,627) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in operation results is due to an increase in cost of sales caused by a cost per pound increase and lower produce revenue due to continued production shortfalls in Texas, an increase in stock compensation and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $137 to $2,154 from $2,017 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is due to an increase in interest rates, partially offset by a decrease in the outstanding principal balances.

Income Taxes (Recovery)

Income tax recovery for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $81 compared to an income tax recovery of $1,513 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The difference is due to the taxable gain on disposal of assets in 2019 that did not occur in 2018. Pure Sunfarms, VFH and AVGGH are all reported post-tax and therefore do not affect the Company’s tax calculation.

Share of Income (Loss) from Joint Ventures

The Company’s share of income from its Pure Sunfarms joint venture for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $17,342 compared to loss of ($369) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is due to having production operations, distribution and sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to not having production operations for the same period in 2018.

- 9 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

The Company’s share of income from VFH for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $632 compared to $nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was due to a change in biological asset offset by selling, general and administrative cost and provision for income taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, VFH did not have production operations.

The Company’s share of loss from AVGGH for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was ($35) compared to $nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The loss primarily consists of salaries and other pre-production phase administrative costs.

Gain on Disposal of Assets

The Company recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 a gain of $13,558 primarily from the contribution of one of the Company’s greenhouse facilities in Delta, British Columbia and related land to Pure Sunfarms. See note 7 of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for details of the transaction.

Net Income (Loss)

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $17,879 to $12,464 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from a loss of ($5,415) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is a result of a gain on disposal of assets and the Company’s share of income from Pure Sunfarms, partially offset by an increase in the loss from the Company’s produce business.

EBITDA

EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $6,862 to $8,256 from $1,394 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of an increase in the Company’s share of income from Pure Sunfarms (Pure Sunfarms EBITDA – $17,704) partially offset by an increase in the loss from the Company’s produce business. See the EBITDA calculation in “Non-IFRS Measure – Reconciliation of Net Earnings to EBITDA”.

Non-IFRS Measures

References in this MD&A to “EBITDA” are to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, foreign currency exchange gains and losses on translation of long-term debt, unrealized gains on the changes in the value of derivative instruments, unrealized change in biological asset, stock compensation, and gains and losses on asset sales. EBITDA is a cash flow measure that is not recognized under IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Therefore, EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of the Company’s performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as measures of liquidity and cash flows. Management believes that EBITDA is an important measure in evaluating the historical performance of the Company.

We also present EBITDA, earnings per share and diluted earnings per share on a proportionate segment basis. Each of the components of EBITDA, on a proportionate segment basis, are presented in the table Reconciliation of IFRS to Proportionate Results. We believe that the ability of investors to assess our overall performance may be improved by the disclosure of proportionate segment EBITDA, earnings per share and diluted earnings per share.

Notes:

(1)

The adjusted consolidated financial results have been adjusted to include the Company’s share of revenues and expenses from Pure Sunfarms and Hemp on a proportionate accounting basis, on which management bases its operating decisions and performance evaluation. IFRS does not allow for the inclusion of the joint ventures on a proportionate basis. These results include additional non-IFRS measures such as EBITDA.

The adjusted results are not generally accepted measures of financial performance under IFRS. The Company’s method of calculating these financial performance measures may differ from other companies and accordingly, they may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. Refer to the MD&A for a reconciliation of these non-IFRS measures and adjusted results.

(2)	Biological asset consists of the Company’s produce on the vines and Pure Sunfarms’ crop at the period end. Details of the Company’s changes are described in note 5 of the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

(3)

EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Therefore, EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. See “Non-IFRS Measures”. Management believes that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company. Consolidated EBITDA includes the Company’s 50% interest Pure Sunfarms, the Company’s 65% interest in VFH and the Company’s 60% interest in AVGGH.

Liquidity

Cash flows

The Company expects to provide adequate financing to maintain and improve its property, plant and equipment, to fund working capital produce needs and invest in VFH and AVGGH for the foreseeable future from cash flows from operations, and, if needed, from additional borrowings under the Credit Facilities (as defined below) or additional equity financing. Pure Sunfarms is self-funding and may start repaying shareholder loans in the fourth quarter of 2019. The proceeds will be used by the Company for its produce operations and other U.S. growth initiatives.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, cash flows from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital and changes in the biological asset totalled ($9,593) (2018 – $277).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, cash flows used by investing activities totalled $11,833 ($9,302 in notes to joint ventures and $2,251 in capital expenditures) (2018 – $9,327 from $6,781 in notes to Joint Venture and $2,546 in capital expenditures).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the cash provided by financing activities primarily consisted of the issuance of common shares pursuant to an underwritten public offering of $13,868, operating loan borrowings of $3,000, the exercise of warrants of $466, proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $109, debt payments of ($3,591), net interest payments of ($1,455) and payments on capital lease obligations of ($637) (2018 – private placement of $7,755, operating loan borrowings of $7,000, proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $275, debt payments of ($1,766), net interest payments of ($1,906) and payments on capital lease obligations of ($45)).

As security for the FCC Loan, the Company has provided promissory notes, a first mortgage on the VFF-owned greenhouse properties (excluding the Delta 3 and Delta 2 greenhouse facilities) and general security agreements over its assets. In addition, the Company has provided full recourse guarantees and has granted security therein. The carrying value of the assets and securities pledged as collateral as at September 30, 2019 was $154,402 (December 31, 2018 – $114,554).

The borrowings are subject to certain positive and negative covenants, which include debt coverage ratios. As at September 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants.

On February 13, 2019, the Company announced that Pure Sunfarms had entered into a credit agreement with Bank of Montreal, as agent and lead lender, and Farm Credit Canada, as lender, in respect of a CA$20 million secured non-revolver term loan (the “PSF Credit Facility”). The PSF Credit Facility, which matures on February 7, 2022, is secured by the Delta 3 greenhouse facility and contains customary financial and restrictive covenants. The Company is not a party to the PSF Credit Facility but has provided a limited guarantee in the amount of CA$10 million in connection with the PSF Credit Facility.

Capital Expenditures

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company purchased approximately $1,155 and $2,251, respectively, of capital assets used for replacements and improvements to existing facilities.

Management continues to review new capital expenditures to support its strategic plan of achieving cost efficiencies through increased productivity. Management may elect, where appropriate, to sell inefficient or non-strategic assets to produce cash to wholly or partially finance new capital expenditures. The Company will also borrow to maintain, improve and replace capital assets when the return on such investments exceed targeted thresholds for internal rates of return. There can be no assurance, however, that sources of financing will be available, or will be available on terms favourable to the Company, or that these strategic initiatives will achieve adequate cost reduction in actual implementation or considering the competitive pressures on the cost of raw materials and other factors of production. Management believes that its capital expenditures will be funded by further equity raises.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company incurred $624 and $2,117, respectively, in costs to maintain its capital assets. These expenses are classified as repair and maintenance and are included in cost of sales. Management forecasts approximately $2,500 of annual costs to maintain the Company’s capital assets.

Financial Instruments and Risk Management

Risk Management

The Company is exposed to the following risks as a result of holding financial instruments: market risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and liquidity risk. The following is a description of these risks and how they are managed by the Company.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in the market place.

Credit Risk

The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by placing its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions.

- 15 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

to the protection afforded to the Company by the Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (the “PACA”) for its sales in the United States, which represent the majority of the Company’s annual sales. The PACA protection gives a claim filed under the PACA a first lien on all PACA assets (which include cash and trade receivables of the debtor). PACA fosters trading practices in the marketing of fresh and frozen fruits and vegetables in interstate and foreign commerce. It prohibits unfair and fraudulent practices and provides a means of enforcing contracts. Historical write-offs have represented less than one-half of 1% of sales.

Trade receivables for each customer were evaluated for collectability and an allowance for doubtful accounts has been estimated. As at September 30, 2019, the allowance for doubtful accounts balance was $5 (2018 – $50). The Company has not recorded bad debt expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (2018 – $nil).

As at September 30, 2019, 98.1% (2018 – 89.2%) of trade receivables were outstanding less than 30 days, 0.9% (2018 – 9.5%) were outstanding for between 30 and 90 days and the remaining 1% (2018 – 1.3%) were outstanding for more than 90 days. Trade receivables are considered past due based on the contract terms agreed to with a customer. Aged receivables that are past due are not considered impaired unless customer specific information indicates otherwise.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

The Company has used derivative instruments to reduce market exposure to changes in interest rates. The Company has used derivative instruments only for risk management purposes and not for generating trading profits.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at September 30, 2019:


(in thousands of U.S. dollars) Financial liabilities	Contractual cash flows		0 to 12 months		12 to 24 months		After 24 months
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	$	15,590	$	15,590	$	—	$	—
Bank debt		33,335		3,424		29,326		585

	$	48,925	$	19,014	$	29,326	$	585

It is the Company’s intention to meet these obligations through the collection of current accounts receivable and cash and to refinance the FCC Loan in the spring of 2020. The Company has available lines of credit of up to CA$13,000 (as at September 30, 2019, $4,000 was outstanding and US$150 and CA$38 was utilized in the form of outstanding letters of credit). If the current resources and cash generated from operations are insufficient to satisfy its obligations, the Company may seek to issue additional equity or to arrange debt or other financing.

Under the terms of the Credit Facilities, the Company is subject to certain 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 therefrom. 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 continue to agree to any covenant amendments or waive any covenant breaches or defaults that may occur under the applicable debt instruments, and (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” in the Company’s current Annual Information Form.

Village Farms International, Inc.

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. 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 the Company’s operational results and profitability.

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 in accordance with Company policy.

Overview

The forward-looking statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this MD&A are not historical facts, but rather, reflect the Company’s current expectations regarding future results or events and are based on information currently available to Management. Certain material factors and assumptions were applied in providing these forward-looking statements. See the “Forward-Looking Statements” section of this MD&A.

Cannabis

On June 6, 2017, the Company announced an initiative into growing cannabis through a joint venture with an existing licensed producer, pursuant to which the Company would contribute one of its Delta greenhouses and growing knowledge in exchange for a 50% equity position. Emerald contributed CA$20 million for its 50% equity interest.

The joint venture is named “Pure Sunfarms Corp.” Pure Sunfarms received its cultivation license from Health Canada for the Delta 3 greenhouse facility on March 2, 2018. Pure Sunfarms received its sales license from Health Canada on July 30, 2018. Pure Sunfarms has been harvesting cannabis since the middle of May 2018 and with its sales license has commenced the sales of dried cannabis to other licensed producers. The entire facility was licensed for cultivation in March 2019 and it is now one of the largest commercial cannabis production facilities in Canada. On September 6, 2019, Pure Sunfarms received from Health Canada certain amendments to its license required to permit the sale and distribution of packaged, Pure Sunfarms-branded dried cannabis products directly to private retailers and provincial/territorial wholesalers. Pure Sunfarms has since begun shipping branded dried cannabis products to the OCS and the BCLDB.

On March 31, 2019, Pure Sunfarms exercised its option on the existing 1.1 million square foot Delta 2 greenhouse facility currently owned by Village Farms in Delta, British Columbia. The Delta 2 greenhouse facility is a nearly identical “sister” facility immediately adjacent to the 1.1 million square foot Delta 3 greenhouse facility, which is already one of the largest cannabis production operations in the world. The addition of the Delta 2 greenhouse facility will double Pure Sunfarms’ total production area to 2.2 million square feet and, with conservatively targeted annual production of approximately 75,000 kilograms of dried cannabis, will double its annual cannabis production potential to approximately 150,000 kilograms in 2021. Pure Sunfarms also expects to benefit from further economies of scale resulting from the concentration of 2.2 million square feet of production area at a single location, which will further support the Company’s goal to be one of the leading high-quality, low-cost cannabis producers in Canada. The existing automated propagation operation (nursery) in the Delta 3 greenhouse facility will serve the Delta 2 greenhouse facility, enabling more of the footprint of the Delta 2 greenhouse facility to be devoted to flower rooms than in the Delta 3 greenhouse facility, which is expected to generate further cost efficiencies.

Village Farms International, Inc.

Since July 2018, each of the Shareholders have provided CAD $13.0 million of capital in the form of demand shareholder loans. Due to the positive cash flow of Pure Sunfarms, the Company expects to start receiving repayment of a portion of its demand shareholder loan in the fourth quarter of 2019 with full repayment by in 2020.

In late June 2019 Emerald Health Therapeutics (“Emerald”) began electing to not fully exercise its right under the Supply Agreement to purchase 40% of Pure Sunfarms’ cannabis production. Pure Sunfarms has sold, and continues to sell, portions of the production that Emerald did not purchase to other licensed producers in the spot market.

Pursuant to the terms of a Supply Agreement that Pure Sunfarms has with Emerald Health, Emerald has a right to purchase 40% of Pure Sunfarms cannabis production at a fixed price. To the extent that Emerald does not exercise that right Pure Sunfarms is able to sell that excess production to other parties in the open market. The Supply Agreement stipulates that, subject to certain limited exceptions, Emerald is required to pay Pure Sunfarms the difference between the fixed price and the selling price realized from other parties. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, Emerald did not exercise their rights and Pure Sunfarms sold the product on the open market to arm’s length parties at prices lower than the fixed price in the Supply Agreement. As a result, under the terms of the Supply Agreement, Pure Sunfarms billed Emerald for the difference which amounted to approximately CA$7million. On October 15, 2019, Emerald issued a press release that indicated it did not agree that it had any liability with respect to these amounts.

Under IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with customers (paragraph 9 (e)), a customer needs to have an intent and ability to pay in order for a company to recognize revenue. Given that Emerald has issued a press release indicating that they do not agree that they have a liability with respect to these amounts, Pure Sunfarms determined that all of the criteria under IFRS 15 to recognize this revenue were not met as Emerald has demonstrated that they do not have an intent to pay, and as a result has not recorded the revenue related to these amounts.

Emerald is in the process of investigating its liability to Pure Sunfarms. If Emerald does not agree to the liability, Pure Sunfarms will take appropriate legal action to collect this liability and any future liabilities arising from the Supply Agreement for 2019 and future years. If Emerald were to agree to the liability, in the future, the liability would be recognized in the revenue and profits of Pure Sunfarms, in that period.

Pure Sunfarms is producing cannabis for under CA$1 per gram due to the achievement of full-scale production at the facility which brings economies of scale to the cost of production and lower utility costs in the summer months. Pure Sunfarms will have seasonal variances in its cost of production due to the use of lights in the winter months but will still produce cannabis for well under CA$1 in the winter months, due to improved economies of scale in 2019 versus 2018 and continual operational improvement with each cycle of production. Pure Sunfarms continues to sell its cannabis to other licensed producers, as well as provincial governments, at prices in the $1.50 to $4 per gram price range, depending on the varieties produced, package size (SKU) and spot market demand and supply. For the third quarter of 2019 Pure Sunfarms generated a product gross margin of 69%. As Pure Sunfarms enters the upcoming winter growing season, the product gross margin is likely to decrease due to higher costs per gram resulting from the seasonal cost of power, as well as the ongoing spot price economics of demand and supply due to the limited number of provincial retail outlets that Pure Sunfarms and all of its customers are dealing with for the foreseeable future. With the receipt of its packaging license, in September 2019, Pure Sunfarms went to the provincial market at prices that were 20-25% below that of other Canadian suppliers, resulting in Pure Sunfarms acquiring significant market share in its first month of sales in Ontario. Pure Sunfarms expects to further enhance its product margins in 2020 with the addition of oils, vaping and other cannabis products, as they are approved by Health Canada, which may help sustain Pure Sunfarms’ leading product gross margins into 2020.

Currently, management has no intention of growing cannabis at its U.S. greenhouse facilities or holding any equity investments in U.S. cannabis cultivation businesses, in each case until it is federally legal to do so. The Company’s sole cannabis operations are its 50% ownership interest in Pure Sunfarms.

The Company continues to seek and evaluate other global cannabis opportunities where cannabis is either currently legal or is in the process of becoming legal.

Hemp (combination of VFH, AVGGH and VFLP)

On June 11, 2019, the Governor of Texas signed the Texas Hemp Bill making hemp a legal crop to grow in Texas. This follows the federal approval of hemp as part of the 2018 Farm Bill that was passed in December 2018. Under the 2018 Farm Bill, each U.S. state must have state hemp regulations approved. The Texas Hemp Bill requires the Texas Department of Agriculture (“TDA”) to issue licenses to grow hemp. At this time, the TDA is awaiting the federal hemp regulations forthcoming from the USDA before it will initiate the licensing process. As such, while the Company announced it had begun the conversion of one of its Texas greenhouses to hemp, the Company cannot start to produce hemp at any of its Texas facilities until it is issued a hemp license by the TDA. Management does not expect that to occur until late in the first quarter 2020 or early in the second quarter 2020. In the interim, the Company continues to convert a portion of one of its Texas facilities to grow hemp as well as evaluate extraction capabilities, which the Company expects to install at each of Texas facilities as each is converted to hemp production.

On February 27, 2019, the Company entered into the VFH Joint Venture Agreement with Nature Crisp to form VFH, for the objective of outdoor cultivation of high percentage CBD hemp and CBD extraction in multiple states throughout the United States. VFH is 65% owned by the Company and 35% owned by Nature Crisp. Under the terms of the VFH Joint Venture Agreement, the Company will contribute approximately US$15 million to VFH for start-up costs and working capital. Capital investment for extraction capabilities is to be determined and dependent on future decisions with respect to the locations of hemp production and the extraction operations.

On March 25, 2019, the Company entered into a grid loan agreement with VFH, whereby, as at September 30, 2019, the Company had contributed $8,315 in the form a grid loan to VFH. The grid loan has a maturity date of March 25, 2022 and will bear simple interest at the rate of 8% per annum, calculated monthly.

VFH has planted a total of 625 acres of field hemp in Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina and has been harvesting through October 2019. The harvest is currently in the drying phase and management is estimating that the yield will be approximately 1 million pounds. Management expects to sell most of the 2019 VFH harvest as bio-mass to third parties in 2020. VFH is in the process of determining the best location for its CBD-extraction operations and is targeting to be operational prior to the commencement of the field hemp harvest of 2020.

VFH only conducts, and will only conduct, its operations in locations where it is fully legal to do so at the federal and state level.

On May 21, 2019, the Company entered into a joint venture with AV Hemp for the objective of outdoor cultivation of high percentage cannabidiol (CBD) hemp and CBD extraction in Colorado. The joint venture, AVGGH, planted 120 acres of hemp seed.

On June 7, 2019, the Company entered into a grid loan agreement with AVGGH, whereby, as at September 30, 2019, the Company had contributed $1,185 in the form of a grid loan to AVGGH. The grid loan has a maturity date of June 7, 2022 and will bear simple interest at the rate of 8% per annum, calculated monthly.

On October 18^th, 2019, AVGGH suffered a wind storm that destroyed the entire hemp crop. AVGGH will be writing off the corresponding biological-asset valued at approximately $696 (VFF 65% $452) in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Produce

The Company continues to focus on increasing its produce revenues and returning to profitability on its core crops – tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. The increase in produce revenues will occur through an increased product volume with partner supplies, through additional suppliers and growth with current suppliers The Company also continues to actively explore whether to produce certain higher margin alternative crops at the Company’s continuing produce facilities, such as hemp, as well as evaluate other cannabis related business opportunities.

Village Farms International, Inc.

Growth expenditures

The Company expects to spend between $1.0 to $1.5 million on capital expenditures in 2019 on its produce facilities. These expenditures are to improve and enhance existing growing and pack house systems either due to obsolescence of the system or to improve operational efficiencies.

The Company will continue to use it existing capital from its April equity raise to fund the capital needs of VFH and AVGGH throughout 2019. As the Company’s plans in respect of VFH extraction are confirmed firm up, the Company may need to raise additional capital. Additionally, if the Texas Department of Agriculture were to provide the Company with a hemp license or provide the Company with an indication as to the timing of such a license, the Company may seek to raise incremental equity capital to fund the conversion of one of its Texas facilities to hemp.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, as of the end of the period covered by the interim and year end filings, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are appropriately designed and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to VFF is made known to them by others within VFF.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings also requires the CEO and Chief Financial Officer of VFF (“CFOs”) to certify, among other things, that they are responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting for VFF, that those internal controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that VFF has disclosed any changes to its internal controls during its most recent period that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company’s management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. This evaluation was performed under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the CEO and CFO.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect all misstatements.

Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that, subject to the inherent limitations noted above, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to various risks and uncertainties which are summarized below, as well as those discussed in this MD&A. Additional details are contained in the Company’s current Annual Information Form dated March 20, 2019 filed on SEDAR, which can be accessed electronically at www.sedar.com.

Supply Agreement with Emerald

As described above under “Overview – Cannabis”, Emerald has recently been electing to not fully exercise its right under the Supply Agreement to purchase 40% of Pure Sunfarm’s cannabis production. Accordingly, Pure Sunfarms has sold, and continues to sell, production that Emerald did not purchase to other licensed producers in the spot market. With the market price for cannabis in the markets where Pure Sunfarms sells its production having declined during the three months ended September 30, 2019, Pure Sunfarms has sold some of that excess production in the spot market at prices lower than the predetermined selling price to Emerald under the Supply Agreement. Pure Sunfarms has been advised by Emerald that it will be receiving a dispute notice from Emerald in respect of its obligation under the Supply Agreement to pay Pure Sunfarms an amount equal to the difference between the predetermined selling price for the contracted production volumes not purchased by Emerald and the market price realized (to the extent lower than the predetermined selling price), subject to certain limited exceptions (the “Price Deficiency Obligations”). If Emerald continues to not exercise its right to purchase 40% of Pure Sunfarm’s cannabis production, the amount of the Price Deficiency Obligations could increase. In addition, there can be no assurance that any dispute in respect of the Price Deficiency Obligations will be resolved in a manner favourable to Pure Sunfarms or that Emerald will not dispute additional Price Deficiency Obligations in the future. Any such dispute may occur over a period of time prior to any resolution thereof.

Customer Credit Risk

In light of the recent volatility in the cannabis sector generally, certain of Pure Sunfarm’s wholesale customers may encounter financial difficulties that could result in Pure Sunfarms being unable to collect some or all of its accounts receivable from those customers. Accordingly, Pure Sunfarms is subject to credit risk in relation to its accounts receivable with its spot market and other wholesale customers. Disputes between Pure Sunfarms and its wholesale customers may arise in the future relating to the non-payment of accounts receivable and may escalate to litigation or other dispute resolution processes, which could be protracted, time consuming and expensive, and there can be no

assurance that Pure Sunfarms will be successful in any such disputes. The foregoing could have a material adverse impact on the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of Pure Sunfarms, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The Company will file its annual report, as a U.S. domestic issuer, on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under U.S. GAAP and regular periodic reports under both Canadian and U.S. law thereafter using U.S. GAAP. In March 2020 the Company expects to re-file its historical 2018 and 2019 annual and interim financial statements presented in accordance with U.S GAAP.

Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are measured at amortized cost, net of allowance for expected credit losses. 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. Trade receivables are recorded net of lifetime expected credit losses.

Inventories

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 and exclude the biological asset (see below). Cost of sales is based upon incurred and estimated costs to be incurred from each crop allocated to both actual and estimated future yields over each crop cycle. The cost of produce inventory purchased from third parties is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

Biological Asset

The biological asset consists of the Company’s produce on the vines at the period end. The produce on the vine is measured at fair value less costs to sell and complete, with any change therein recognized in profit or loss. Costs to sell include all costs that would be necessary to sell and complete the assets, including finishing and transportation costs.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the assets and liability method of accounting for income taxes under which future income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future income tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying value amount and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Management uses judgment and estimates in determining the appropriate rates and amounts in recording future taxes, giving consideration to timing and probability. Actual taxes could significantly vary 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.

Future income tax assets are recognized to the extent that realization is considered more likely than not. The Company considers past results, current trends and outlooks for future years in assessing the realization of income tax assets.

Impairment of Financial and Non-Financial Assets

At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its long-lived assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any. The Company estimates the recoverable amounts of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset belongs.

Where a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation can be identified, corporate assets are also allocated to individual CGU’s, or otherwise they are allocated to the smallest group of CGUs’ for which a reasonable and consistent allocation basis can be identified. Identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. This was determined to be the Canadian and U.S. operations.

Recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and the value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. If the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of income.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses for assets with a finite useful life, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or CGU in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of income.

Due to the above-noted considerations, which are based on the Company’s best available information, the Company has not recorded any impairment charge on its non-financial assets during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Property, Plant and Equipment – Useful Lives

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.

Land Revaluation

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 year ended December 31, 2016.

Critical Accounting Estimates used by Pure Sunfarms

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 Pure Sunfarms’ property, plant and equipment in the future.

Inventories

Capitalized production costs are expenditures relating to upcoming harvests which are deferred and become part of costing in subsequent periods. To calculate the deferral, estimates are made concerning the expected life cycle and timing of harvests for cannabis plants. Finished goods cannabis inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Management’s estimate of net realizable value is calculated as the estimated selling cost in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Biological assets

Management is required to make a number of estimates to calculate the fair value of its biological assets. This includes estimating the stage of growth of the cannabis up to the point of harvest, harvesting costs, selling costs, sales price, wastage and expected yields of the cannabis plants. Management has used judgement in determining the point at which biological transformation has occurred to the point they expect it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the cannabis plants will flow to Pure Sunfarms.

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 Pure Sunfarms’ 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.

Pure Sunfarms’ credit risk arises from cash, cash equivalents, and trade and settlement receivables. Pure Sunfarms’ significant counterparties in respect to cash and cash equivalents are reputable financial institutions with investment-grade ratings. At the date of transition to IFRS 9, Pure Sunfarms’ receivable balance consisted only of recoverable GST as filed with the Canada Revenue Agency. Accordingly, Pure Sunfarms did not record adjustments related to the implementation of the expected credit loss model for trade receivables.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The Company has adopted the following new and revised standards and changes in accounting policies, along with any consequential amendments as at September 30, 2019. These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions. The Company will file its annual report, as a U.S. domestic issuer, on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 under U.S. GAAP and regular periodic reports under both Canadian and U.S. law thereafter using U.S. GAAP. In March 2020 the Company expects to re-file its historical 2018 and 2019 annual and interim financial statements presented in accordance with U.S GAAP.

Amendments to IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements (“IFRS 11”), 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 statement of financial position date, the Company will consider whether there is objective evidence that its investment in the joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence of impairment, the Company will determine the amount of the impairment and a loss will be recorded in the condensed consolidated interim statement of income (loss) (“statement of income (loss). The adoption of the amendments to IFRS 11 did not have and impact on the Company’s interim financial statements.

IFRS 16, Leases (“IFRS 16”), was issued in January 2016 to replace 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, i.e. the customer (lessee) and the supplier (lessor) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet.

- 25 -

Village Farms International, Inc.

On adoption, the Company recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as ‘operating leases’ under the principles of IAS 17, Leases. These lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the borrowing rate of the Company. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on January 1, 2019 was 6.25%. These leases are included in right-of-use assets, short-term lease liabilities and long-term lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

For leases previously classified as finance leases the entity recognized the carrying amount of the lease asset and lease liability immediately before transition as the carrying amount of the right of use asset and the lease liability at the date of initial application. The premeasurements to the lease liabilities were recognized as adjustments to the related right-of-use assets immediately after the date of initial application.

Recent Highlights for Village Farms’ Canadian Cannabis Joint Venture, Pure Sunfarms

•

Pure Sunfarms was the top performing brand of dried flower by both kilograms sold and dollar sales with the OCS in October 2019, achieving 16% market share (by kilograms sold). Pure Sunfarms’ dried flower products outsold the second ranked dried flower brand’s products two to one (by kilograms sold). In addition:

•

Pure Sunfarms’ Afghan Kush was the top selling dried flower product with the OCS in October;

•

Three of the seven top selling dried flower products with the OCS in October were Pure Sunfarms products.

Pure Sunfarms shipped its first order of branded dried cannabis products to the OCS in late September (followed by multiple reorders) following receipt from Health Canada on September 6, 2019 of the amendment to its license permitting it to sell and distribute packaged, branded dried cannabis products directly to provincial/territorial wholesalers and authorized private retailers in Canada;

•

In B.C., Pure Sunfarms’ sold out its first order to the BC Liquor Distribution Branch (“BCLDB”) (which has since re-ordered) in under three weeks to rank among the top ten brands by sales for all product categories in October. Pure Sunfarms began selling branded, packaged dried cannabis products to the BCLDB in October following entry into a supply agreement in September;

•

Completed installation of extraction equipment (with processing capacity of 35,000 kilograms of biomass annually) in its new 65,000 square foot state-of-the-art processing center within the Delta 3 greenhouse facility in preparation for Cannabis 2.0. The processing centre has been designed for full GMP compliance and certification to allow for future exportation, and is expected to be operational, as soon as possible, subject to Health Canada licensing and inhouse calibration and testing;

•

Achieved full run-rate annual production of 75,000 kilograms of dried cannabis at its 1.1 million square foot Delta 3 greenhouse facility; and

•

Commenced conversion of the interior of its second 1.1 million square foot greenhouse operation, the Delta 2 greenhouse facility, for cannabis production, which is conservatively expected to double Pure Sunfarms’ annual output at full production to more than 150,000 kilograms. Conversion of the Delta 2 greenhouse facility, which has been designed for full GMP compliance and certification to all for future exportation, remains on schedule, with cannabis production expected to commence during the second quarter of 2020 and the facility expected to be operating at full run rate production by the end of 2020. Pure Sunfarms has submitted to Health Canada its application for the initial Cultivation License for the Delta 2 facility.

Recent Highlights for Village Farms’ U.S. Hemp/CBD Program

The Company’s joint ventures for outdoor hemp production and processing in the U.S. recently completed harvesting of approximately 625 acres of the approximately 870 acres of hemp planted in 2019, achieving an average yield of approximately 1,600 pounds per acre harvested, well in excess of its projections. The Company expects to commence sales of hemp biomass as early as the fourth quarter of 2019.

“We are pleased to report another quarter in which Pure Sunfarms continued to set the standard for performance as a best-in-class cannabis operation, which again drove strong financial performance,” said Michael DeGiglio, Chief Executive Officer, Village Farms. “Pure Sunfarms’ achieved its fourth consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA, with an industry leading all-in cost of production of C$0.63, gross margin of 69% and EBITDA margin of 56%. In the 12 months since adult-use cannabis was legalized in Canada in October 2018, Pure Sunfarms has already generated C$47 million in EBITDA, an especially impressive number given that its operations were ramping up throughout most of that period.”

“Pure Sunfarms is now proving itself as a leading cannabis brand, ranking as the number one selling dried flower brand by a wide margin with the Ontario Cannabis Store in October, and having the overall top selling dried flower product, as well as three of the seven top-selling dried flower product. We look forward to Pure Sunfarms building on this tremendous initial success as it launches its pre-rolled dried products, adds provincial supply agreements, starts its extraction operations online for the roll out of oils and other new product forms under Cannabis 2.0 in the first half of next year, and more than doubles its output, further supporting its low production costs.

“Pure Sunfarms continues to execute very well on what is under its control. Even as one of the largest Canadian adult-use cannabis suppliers by dollars sold, third quarter sales were constrained by the limited physical retail store infrastructure in Canada, as well as the C$7.2 million that could not be recognized. We built Pure Sunfarms, however, for profitability out of the gate, even in a commoditized environment, and it is one of the few and most profitable Canadian cannabis companies. With industry-leading cost production and a brand and products that are clearly resonating with consumers, Pure Sunfarms remains well positioned to continue to be a dominant supplier as the Canadian adult-use cannabis market continues to develop and expand.”

“In our U.S. outdoor hemp program, we recently completed harvest of our 2019 crop, highlighted by yields that were well above our projections. We remain on track to begin generating profitable hemp sales as early as the fourth quarter of this year. Importantly, our first growing season has provided significant learnings that will be invaluable going forward. In our greenhouse hemp program, we continue to work with Texas Department of Agriculture on the implementation of its hemp regulatory framework subject to the recently published US Department of Agriculture rules and are optimistic that licensing could commence in the first quarter of 2020. As we did in Canada with Pure Sunfarms, we are building a rock-solid foundation of exceptional growing operations from which to aggressively pursue our objective to launch our own white-labelled and branded CBD products in 2020.”

“In our produce business, we continue to make steady progress in the transition of the production displaced for cannabis and hemp production to third-party growing partners, recently adding approximately 120 acres with partners in Mexico and Canada to bring the total to nearly 300 acres. During this period of transition, we will continue to experience some impact on our financial results, more so in some quarters than others, which in the third quarter contributed to a net loss for the produce business of US$5.1 million.”

Update on Pure Sunfarms’ Supply Agreement with Emerald Health Therapeutics

Pursuant to the terms of a Supply Agreement that Pure Sunfarms has with Emerald Health, Emerald has an obligation to purchase 40% of Pure Sunfarms cannabis production at a fixed price, subject to the terms and conditions of the Supply Agreement. To the extent that Emerald does not fulfill its purchase obligation, Pure Sunfarms is able to sell that excess production to other parties in the open market. The Supply Agreement stipulates that Emerald is required to pay Pure Sunfarms the difference between the fixed price and the selling price realized from other parties. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, Emerald did not fulfill its purchase obligation and Pure Sunfarms sold the product on the open market to arm’s length parties at prices lower than the fixed price in the Supply Agreement. As a result, under the terms of the Supply Agreement, Pure Sunfarms billed Emerald for the difference which amounted to approximately C$7.2 million. On October 15, 2019, Emerald issued a press release that indicated they do not agree that they have any liability with respect to these amounts.

Under IFRS 15 – Revenue from contracts with customers (paragraph 9 (e)), a customer needs to have an intent and ability to pay in order for a company to recognize revenue. Given that Emerald has issued a press release indicating that they do not agree that they have a liability with respect to these amounts, Pure Sunfarms has determined that all of the criteria under IFRS 15 to recognize this revenue were not met as Emerald has demonstrated that they do not have an intent to pay, and as a result has not recorded the revenue related to these amounts.

We understand that Emerald is in the process of investigating its liability to Pure Sunfarms. If Emerald does not agree to the liability, Pure Sunfarms has reserved the right to take such actions as it considers necessary and appropriate to recover its losses from Emerald for non-payment of amounts owing under the Supply Agreement. If Emerald were to agree to the liability in the future, such liability would be recognized in the revenue and profits of Pure Sunfarms, at such time in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes:

(1)

Biological asset consists of the Company’s produce on the vines and Pure Sunfarms’ crop at the period end. Details of the changes are described in note 5 of the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

(2)

EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Therefore, EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. See “Non-IFRS Measures”. Management believes that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company. Consolidated EBITDA includes the Company’s 50% interest in Pure Sunfarms, 65% interest in VFH and 60% (effective 63.25% with VFH interest) interest in AVGGH.

(3)

The consolidated financial results above reflect the proportionate share of the Company’s share of revenues and expenses from its joint venture operations, as this is the basis which management bases its operating decisions and performance evaluation. IFRS does not allow for the inclusion of the joint venture on a proportionate basis. These results include additional non-IFRS measures such as EBITDA.

The results are not generally accepted measures of financial performance under IFRS. The Company’s method of calculating these financial performance measures may differ from other companies and accordingly, they may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. Refer to the MD&A for a reconciliation of these non-IFRS measures and proportionate results.

Produce

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $2,004, or 5%, to $38,866 from $36,862 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to an increase in cost per pound from the Texas facilities, which is due to production issues that caused decreases in production. The decrease in production for the crop causes an increase in cost per pound as most costs are fixed and, as production decreases, cost per pound increases.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $299, or less than 1%, to $111,512 compared to $111,213 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in net sales is due to an increase in supply partner revenues of 12% over the comparable period in 2018 partially offset by a (14%) decrease in the Company’s production volume. The decrease in the Company’s production volume is primarily due to a clean-out in one of Company’s facilities (which did not occur in the last three years) and ongoing virus pressure at the Company’s Texas facilities.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $10,796, or 10%, to $114,711 from $103,915 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, due to an increase in supply partner purchases of 12% and an increase in the cost per pound of the Company’s own grown product in Texas due to decreased pounds and higher labor costs, due to the higher utilization of hourly rate contract laborers versus Village Farms employees for the 2018/2019 crop as compared to the prior crop.

Consolidated EBITDA

EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2019 increased by $4,339 to $5,236 from $897 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase is primarily as a result of an increase in the Company’s share of EDITDA from Pure Sunfarms of $7,886 partially offset by an increase in the loss from operations for the Company’s produce business.

EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased $9,713 to $11,109 from $1,394 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily as a result of an increase in the Company’s share of income from Pure Sunfarms (Pure Sunfarms EBITDA – $20,558) partially offset by an increase in the loss from the Company’s produce business.

Notes:

(4)

The adjusted consolidated financial results have been adjusted to include the Company’s share of revenues and expenses from its Pure Sunfarms and Hemp joint ventures on a proportionate accounting basis, on which management bases its operating decisions and performance evaluation. IFRS does not allow for the inclusion of the Joint Venture on a proportionate basis. These results include additional non-IFRS measures such as EBITDA.

(5)

(6)

EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Therefore, EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. See “Non-IFRS Measures”. Management believes that EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company. Consolidated EBITDA includes the Company’s 50% interest Pure Sunfarms, 65% interest in VFH and 60% (effective 63.25% with VFH interest) interest in AVGGH.

No misrepresentations: Based on my knowledge, having exercised reasonable diligence, the interim filings do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it was made, with respect to the period covered by the interim filings.
