Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited, expressed in thousands of Canadian Dollar s, except share amounts or where otherwise stated)

1. Description of Business

HEXO Corp. (the “Company”), is a publicly traded corporation, incorporated in Ontario. HEXO is licensed to produce and sell cannabis and cannabis products under the Cannabis Act. Its head office is located at 3000 Solandt Road Ottawa, Canada. The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), both under the trading symbol “HEXO”.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic. In response to the outbreak, governmental authorities in Canada and internationally have introduced various recommendations and measures to try to limit the pandemic, including travel restrictions, border closures, non- essential business closures, quarantines, self-isolations, shelters-in-place and social distancing. These measures are continuously monitored and modified by the applicable governmental authorities in Canada and remained in effect as at April 30, 2021. The production and sale of cannabis in Canada was deemed an essential service throughout the three and nine months ended April 30, 2021.

The Company regularly monitors the impact of the ongoing pandemic on all aspects of its business and operations and as of April 30, 2021, we have not observed any material changes.

2. Basis of Preparation

Statement of Compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“interim consolidated financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”), using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRS”). These interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all the disclosures required in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the amended and restated annual consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended July 31, 2020, prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting policies consistent with those described in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2020.

These interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on June 14, 2021.

3. New Accounting Policies and Pronouncements

New Accounting Policy

CAPTIVE INSURANCE

Insurance coverage for the Company’s directors and officers has been secured through a Captive Cell program (“the Captive Program”). The Captive Program was effected by entering into a participation agreement with a registered insurer for the purposes of holding and managing the Company’s coverage funds through a separate cell account (the “Cell Captive”). The Company applies IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements in its assessment of control as it relates to the Cell Captive. The Company’s accounting policy is to consolidate the Cell Captive. Currently the Captive Program funds are held as cash in the Cell Captive with the possibility of reinvestment into short-term investments and/or marketable securities in the future. As the funds cannot be transferred to other parts of the group without providing 6 month notice, the funds are disclosed as Restricted cash. The Company recognizes gains and losses from, interest, foreign exchange activity and/or fair market value adjustments through the Statement of Loss and Comprehensive Loss.

New Accounting Procurement Not Yet Effective

AMENDMENTS TO IAS 37: ONEROUS CONTRACTS AND THE COST OF FULFILLING A CONTRACT

The amendment specifies that the ‘cost of fulfilling’ a contract comprises the ‘costs that relate directly to the contract’. Costs that relate directly to a contract consist of both the incremental costs of fulfilling that contract or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of these amendments on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The valuation of biological assets is based on an income approach (Level 3) in which the fair value at the point of harvesting is estimated based on selling prices less the costs to sell. For in process biological assets, the fair value at the point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth at period-end.

The significant estimates used in determining the fair value of cannabis plants are as follows:

  • yield per plant;

  • stage of growth percentage estimated as costs incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to the estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfilment costs) to arrive at an in-process fair value for estimated biological assets, which have not yet been harvested;

  • percentage of costs incurred for each stage of plant growth.

  • fair value selling price per gram less cost to complete and cost to sell.

  • destruction/wastage of plants during the harvesting and processing process.

Management’s identified significant unobservable inputs, their range of values and sensitivity analysis are presented in the tables below.

12. Convertible Debenture Receivable

On February 15, 2021 Zenabis entered into an agreement with HEXO for the issuance of an unsecured convertible debenture to the Company in a principal amount of $19,500. On this date, HEXO advanced Zenabis $12,500 in cash and converted the previous supply prepayment of $7,000 to a convertible debenture receivable. The debenture is convertible into common shares of Zenabis at a conversion price equal to the 5-day volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Zenabis common shares on TSX for the five trading days prior to the date of conversion. The debenture may be prepaid by Zenabis, at its option and without penalty or premium. The unsecured convertible debenture bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and matures on February 15, 2023.

Upon initial recognition of the $19,500 face value convertible debenture receivable (Level 2) on February 16, 2021, the fair value was derived using the calculated 5-day VWAP of $0.1724 and the closing market price of $0.18. The estimated fair value upon recognition was $20,360.

The fair value of the convertible debenture receivable as at April 30, 2021 was estimated using the calculated 5-day VWAP of $0.1174 and the closing market price of $0.12. The estimated fair value as at April 30, 2021 was $20,246. The gain on revaluation of the instrument was $434.

On December 5, 2019, the Company closed a $70,000 private placement of convertible debentures. The Company issued a total of $70,000 principal amount of 8.0% unsecured convertible debentures maturing on December 5, 2022 (the “Debentures”). The Debentures are convertible at the option of the holder at any time after December 7, 2020 and prior to maturity at a conversion price of $12.64 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment in certain events. The Company may force the conversion of all of the then outstanding Debentures at the Conversion Price at any time after December 7, 2020 and prior to maturity on 30 days’ notice if the daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company is greater than $30.00 for any 15 consecutive trading days.

The Company had the option to at any time on or before December 4, 2020, to repay all, but not less than all, of the principal amount of the Debentures, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon maturity, the holders of the Debentures have the right to require the Company to repay any principal amount of their Debentures through the issuance of common shares of the Company in satisfaction of such amounts at a price equal to the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the payment date.

In May 2020, the Company provided notice to all holders of the Debentures of an option to voluntarily convert their Debentures into units of the Company (the “Conversion Units”) at a discounted early conversion price of $0.80 (the “Early Conversion Price”) calculated based on the 5-day volume weighted average HEXO Corp. market prices (the “VWAP”) preceding the announcement. The VWAP unitized data from both the TSX and NYSE. Each Conversion Unit will provide the holder one common share and one half common share purchase warrant (with an exercise price of $4.00 and term of three years). The early conversion occurred in two phases, the first being on June 10, 2020 followed by the second and final phase June 30, 2020. During phases one and two, $23,595 principal amount, or approximately 34%, and $6,265 principal amount, or approximately 9% of the Debentures were converted under the Early Conversion Price into 7,373,438 and 1,957,813 common shares and 3,686,719 and 978,906 common share purchase warrants of HEXO Corp, respectively.

On April 30, 2021, there remains $40,140 in principal debentures, the net present value of the debt was $26,600 and the remaining balance of $13,540, was allocated to the conversion feature.

The accrued and unpaid interest as at April 30, 2020 was $483.

16. Term Loan

Term Loan

On February 14, 2019, the Company entered into a syndicated credit facility with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (“CIBC”) as Sole Bookrunner, Co-Lead Arranger and Administrative Agent and Bank of Montreal as Co-Lead Arranger and Syndication Agent (together “the Lenders”). The Lenders provided the Company with up to $65,000 in secured debt financing at a rate of interest that is expected to average in the mid-to-high 5% per annum range. The credit facility consisted of an up to $50,000 term loan (“Term Loan”) and up to a $15,000 in a revolving credit facility which is limited to the Company’s working capital assets available to support funded balances. The credit facility had a maturity date of February 14, 2022 and was secured against the Company’s property, plant and equipment. The Company was to repay at minimum 2.5% of the initial amount drawn each quarter per the terms of the credit facility agreement. On February 14, 2019, the Company received $35,000 on the Term Loan and incurred financing costs of $1,347.

Under the terms of the credit facility the Company was able to repay the loan without penalty, at any time and did so, in full, on April 30, 2021.

On July 31, 2020 the Company was not in compliance with an administrative banking covenant which mandated that the Company does not utilize a Canadian dollar operating bank account with any institution other than the Lenders. The Company was subject to the covenant 90 days after entering the syndicated credit facility on February 14, 2019. The Company received an amendment on October 29, 2020 allowing it to rectify this administrative breach by April 27, 2021. Due to the amendment being received after July 31, 2020 and within the three months ended October 31, 2020 the Company classified its Term Loan as a current liability on July 31, 2020. On April 30, 2021, the Company repaid the credit facility in full and therefore is no longer subject to the credit facilities financial or administrative covenants. The credit facility has therefore been terminated and is no longer available to the Company.

In the nine months ended April 30, 2021, total interest expenses were $990 (April 30, 2020 - $567) and total interest capitalized was $419 (April 30, 2020 - $752). The non- cash interest expense relating to the amortization of deferred financing costs was $793 for the nine months ended April 30, 2021 (April 30, 2020 - $364).

Share-based Compensation

Share-based compensation is measured at fair value at the date of grant and are expensed over the vesting period (See Note 22 for share-based compensation allocation by expense group). In determining the amount of share-based compensation, the Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to establish the fair value of stock options and RSUs granted at grant date by applying the following assumptions:


he following assumptions:
April 30, 2021 July31,2020
Exercise price (weighted average) $17.97 $26.04
Market price (weighted average) $18.16 $26.44
Risk-free interest rate (weighted average) 1.30% 1.79%
Expected life (years) of options (weighted average) 5 5
Expected annualized volatility (weighted average) 83% 75%

Volatility was estimated using the average historical volatility of the Company and comparable companies in the industry that have trading history and volatility history.

For the three and nine months ended April 30, 2021, the Company allocated to inventory $444 and $1,284, respectively (April 30, 2020 – $1,358 and $5,088) of share-based compensation applicable to direct and indirect labour in the cultivation and production process..

21. Financial Instruments

Market Risk

Interest Risk

The Company has minimal exposure to interest rate risk related to any investments of cash and cash equivalents. The Company may invest cash in highly liquid investments with short terms to maturity that would accumulate interest at prevailing rates for such investments. As at April 30, 2021, the Company had no term loans (July 31, 2020 – $29,930) (Note 16).

Price Risk

Price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity or market prices. The Company’s level 1 and 2 investments are susceptible to price risk arising from uncertainties about their future outlook, future values and the impact of market conditions. The fair value of marketable securities and derivatives held in publicly traded entities is based on quoted market prices, which the shares of the investments can be exchanged for. The Company elected an early conversion option in the year ended July 31, 2020 in which $29,860 of the aggregate principal amount of its 8% unsecured convertible debentures (Note 14) were converted, which partially mitigates the Company’s Price Risk.

There would be no material impact (July 31, 2020 – no material impact) if the fair value of these financial assets were to increase or decrease by 10% as of April 30, 2021. The price risk exposure as at April 30, 2021 and July 31, 2020 is presented in the table below.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s trade receivables and convertible debentures receivable. As at April 30, 2021, the Company was exposed to credit related losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties.

The Company provides credit to its customers in the normal course of business and has established credit evaluation and monitoring processes to mitigate credit risk. Since the majority of the medical sales are transacted with clients that are covered under various insurance programs, and adult use sales are transacted with crown corporations, the Company has limited credit risk.

Cash and cash equivalents, certain restricted funds and short-term investments are held with four Canadian commercial banks that hold Dun and Bradstreet credit ratings of AA (July 31, 2020 – AA) and $111 is held with a credit union that does not have a publicly available credit rating. Certain restricted funds in the amount of $30,000 are managed by an insurer and are held as a cell captive within a Bermuda based private institution which does not have a publicly available credit rating; however the utilized custodian is Citibank which holds a credit rating of A+. The majority of the trade receivables balance is held with crown corporations of Quebec, Ontario and Alberta. Creditworthiness of a counterparty is evaluated prior to the granting of credit. The Company has estimated the expected credit loss using a lifetime credit loss approach. The current expected credit loss for the nine months ended April 30, 2021 is $36 (July 31, 2020 - $35).

15

In measuring the expected credit losses, the adult-use cannabis trade receivables have been assessed on a per customer basis as they consist of a low number of material contracts. Medical trade receivables have been assessed collectively as they have similar credit risk characteristics. They have been grouped based on the days past due.

Credit risk from the convertible debenture receivable arises from the possibility that principal and/or interest due may become uncollectible. The Company mitigates this risk by managing and monitoring the underlying business relationship.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and trade receivables represents the maximum exposure to credit risk and as at April 30, 2021; this amounted to$132,638 (July 31, 2020 – $211,860).

The following table summarizes the Company’s aging of trade receivables as at April 30, 2021 and July 31, 2020:

Over 90 days 1,437 789
Total 19,049 19,426

Economic Dependence Risk

Economic dependence risk is the risk of reliance upon a select number of customers, which significantly impacts the financial performance of the Company. For the three months ended April 30, 2021, the Company’s recorded sales to the crown corporations; Société québécoise du cannabis (“SQDC”) the Ontario Cannabis Store (“OCS”) and the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis agency (“ALGC”) representing 44%, 26% and 15%, respectively (April 30, 2020 – one crown corporation representing 83%) of total applicable periods gross cannabis sales.

For the nine months ended April 30, 2021, the Company’s recorded sales to the crown corporations; Société québécoise du cannabis (“SQDC”) the Ontario Cannabis Store (“OCS”) and the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis agency (“ALGC”) representing 50%, 20% and 17%, respectively (April 30, 2020 – one crown corporation representing 75%) of total applicable periods gross cannabis sales.

The Company holds trade receivables from the crown corporations SQDC, OCS and the AGLC representing 30%, 35% and 14%, respectively, of total trade receivable, respectively as at April 30, 2021 (July 31, 2020 – two crown corps SQDC and OCS representing 47% and 25% of total trade receivables, respectively).

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by reviewing on an ongoing basis its capital requirements. As at April 30, 2021, the Company had $81,038 (July 31, 2020 – $184,173) of cash and cash equivalents and $19,049 (July 31, 2020 –$19,426) in trade receivables.

The Company has current liabilities of $69,742 and contractual commitments of $9,472 due before July 31, 2022. The Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables are expected to provide sufficient liquidity to meet cash outflow requirements over the next twelve months.

The Company’s success in executing on its longer-term strategy is dependent upon its ability to fund the repayment of existing borrowings and to generate positive cash flows from operations. If additional liquidity is required, management plans to secure the necessary financing through the issuance of new public or private equity or debt instruments. There is no assurance that additional future funding will be available to the Company, or that it will be available on terms which are acceptable to management.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term to maturity.

Foreign Currency Risk

On April 30, 2021, the Company holds certain financial assets and liabilities denominated in United States Dollars (“USD”) which consist of cash and cash equivalents, and warrant liabilities. The Company does not currently use foreign exchange contracts to hedge its exposure of its foreign currency cash flows as management has determined that this risk is not significant. The Company closely monitors relevant economic information to minimize its net exposure to foreign currency risk. The Company is exposed to unrealized foreign exchange risk through its cash and cash equivalents. As at April 30, 2021, approximately $35,614 (USD$29,492) (July 31, 2020 – $42,981 (USD$57,652)) of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents was in USD. A 1% change in the foreign exchange rate would result in a change of $356 to the unrealized gain or loss on foreign exchange or on the gain or loss on financial instrument revaluation of USD denominated warrants.

LETTERS OF CREDIT

On August 21, 2019, the Company entered into a five-year letter of credit with a Canadian financial institution to provide a maximum of $250 that amortizes $50 annually until its expiry on July 14, 2024. The letter of credit has not been drawn upon as at April 30, 2021. As at April 30, 2021, the $200 letter of credit is secured by cash held in collateral (Note 4).

On August 1, 2020, the Company reissued a pre-existing letter of credit with a Canadian financial institution under an agreement with a public utility provider entitling the utility provider to a maximum of $2,581, subject to certain operational requirements. The letter of credit has a one-year expiry from the date of issuance with an autorenewal feature. On January 1, 2021, the letter of credit was reduced to $2,352 by way of amendment.

CONTINGENCIES

The Company may be, from time to time, subject to various administrative and other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Contingent liabilities associated with legal proceedings are recorded when a liability is probable, and the contingent liability can be reasonably estimated.

As of April 30, 2021, the Company is named as a defendant in securities class actions that have been filed in the superior court of the province of Quebec and in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. One or more of the Company’s current and/or former officers and directors, and/or certain underwriters of past public offerings by the Company, are also named as defendants in certain of the actions. The lawsuits assert causes of action under Canadian and U.S. securities legislation in connection with statements made by the defendants that are alleged to have been materially false and/or misleading statements and their alleged failure to disclose material adverse facts. The alleged misrepresentations relate to, among other things, the Company’s forward-looking information, including but not limited to the Company’s forecast revenues for Q4 2019 and fiscal 2020, its inventory, “channel stuffing” and the Company’s supply agreement with the Province of Quebec. As at the date hereof, the amounts claimed for damages in each of these actions have not been quantified. These actions are in a preliminary stage and have not yet been certified as class actions. In November 2020, the Superior Court of Justice of Ontario ordered the discontinuance of two putative securities class actions commenced in Ontario relating to the same matters on a without costs basis. On March 9, 2021, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed the U.S. federal securities class action pending against the company relating to the same matters on a without costs basis, with the dismissal not having been appealed from.

As of April 30, 2021, the Company was named as a defendant in a proposed consumer protection class action filed on June 18, 2020 in the Court of Queens’ Bench in Alberta on behalf of residents of Canada who purchased cannabis products over specified periods of time. Several other licensed producers are also named as co-defendants in the action. The lawsuit asserts causes of action, including for breach of contract and breach of consumer protection legislation, arising out of allegations that the Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or Cannabidiol (CBD) content of medicinal and recreational cannabis products sold by the Company and the other defendants to consumers was different from what was advertised on the products’ labels. Many of the cannabis products sold by the Company and other defendants were allegedly sold to consumers in containers using plastic bottles or caps that may have rapidly absorbed or degraded the THC or CBD content within them. By allegedly over-representing the true amount of THC or CBD in the products, the plaintiff claims that consumers would be required to consume substantially more product than they otherwise would have in order to obtain the desired effects or, in the alternative, would have consumed the product without obtaining the desired effects.
