Biological Assets

 

The Company measures biological assets consisting of cannabis on plants at fair value less cost to sell up to the point of harvest, which becomes the basis for the cost of finished goods inventories after harvest. Seeds are measured at fair market value, except for a portion which are restricted with respect to distribution due to the conditions under which they were acquired that are measured at cost.

 

Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value less cost to sell are included in the results of operations of the related period.

 

Production Costs

 

Production costs includes costs incurred in the period that relate to the production and growth of cannabis plants. Costs include labour directly related to growing activities, growing medium and supplies, nutrients, rent, and electricity.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories of dried cannabis consist of harvested cannabis and purchased cannabis and are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories of harvested cannabis are transferred from biological assets at their fair value at harvest, which becomes the deemed cost. Any subsequent post-harvest costs incurred to dry and package the product are capitalized to inventory to the extent that cost is less than net realizable value.

 

Inventories of cannabis oils are derived from dried cannabis and may include the deemed cost of inventory that arose from the fair value measurement of biological assets. Additional costs to produce, test and package cannabis oils are capitalized to inventory to the extent that cost is less than net realizable value.

 

Goods for resale are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Supplies and consumables are valued at cost.

 

Net realizable value is determined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Cost is determined using the average cost basis.

 

Warrants

 

Warrants issued as part of unit offerings subsequent to December 31, 2017, have been measured by the relative fair value approach. Under the relative fair value approach, the total proceeds of a unit offering are allocated to the components of the unit in proportion to their relative fair values, as determined by using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model.

Financial Instruments

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”), which replaced IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”). The standard eliminates the existing IAS 39 categories of held to maturity, available-for-sale and loans and receivable.

 

The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the measurement of the Company’s financial instruments in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, however additional disclosures have been provided.

 

The following table summarizes the original measurement categories under IAS 39 and the new measurement categories under IFRS 9 for each class of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities:

 

  IAS 39   IFRS 9
  Classification   Classification
Financial Assets      
Cash FVTPL   FVTPL
Cash equivalents Amortized cost   Amortized cost
Accounts receivable Amortized cost   Amortized cost
Due from related parties Amortized cost   Amortized cost
Refundable deposits Amortized cost   Amortized cost
Long-term investment FVTPL   FVTPL
       
Financial Liabilities      
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized cost   Amortized cost
Payable to joint venture Amortized cost   Amortized cost
Due to related parties Amortized cost   Amortized cost

 

The following are new accounting policies for financial instruments:

 

Financial assets

 

The Company classifies its financial assets as either subsequently measured at amortized cost, at fair value through other comprehensive income, or at fair value through profit or loss. Upon initial recognition, management determines the classification of its financial assets based upon the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Measurement and classification of financial assets is determined based on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. Management may, at initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as measured at fair value through profit or loss to prevent a measurement or recognition inconsistency.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers based on a five-step model, which is applied to all contracts with customers.

 

There were no changes required to the statements of financial position or statements of loss and comprehensive loss as a result of adopting this standard, other than enhanced disclosures.

 

New accounting pronouncements, issued but not yet adopted

 

IFRS 16, Leases – replaces the guidance in IAS 17 Leases and establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases, with the objective of ensuring that lessees and lessors provide relevant information that faithfully represents those transactions.

 

IFRS 16 applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. The Company is assessing the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

4.ACQUISITIONS

 

Northern Vine Canada Inc. Increase of Ownership

 

On November 17, 2017, the Company acquired control of Northern Vine by way of shares purchased from treasury resulting in ownership of 53% of the issued and outstanding shares of Northern Vine.

 

On May 15, 2018, the Company increased its ownership of Northern Vine to 65% by way of additional shares purchased from treasury for $2.75 million paid in cash.

 

On August 14, 2018, the Company increased its ownership in Northern Vine to 100% by purchasing all of the shares of Northern Vine held by Abattis Bioceuticals Corp (“Abattis”). The Company paid $2 million in cash and issued 1,093,938 Common Shares valued at $4 million, for total consideration of $6 million.

 

In the event that the Company receives gross revenue of $10 million or more within thirty-six months ended August 9, 2021, from the sale of products or services introduced by Abattis, the Company will issue additional Common Shares with a deemed value of $4 million.

 

If the Company had increased its interest at the beginning of the year there would have been no change to revenue or net loss as Northern Vine is a consolidated subsidiary. The net loss attributable to the Company would have increased by $406,517 and the net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest would have decreased by $406,517.

The increase in the Company’s ownership interest was accounted for as an equity transaction.

 

Upon the initial acquisition of 53% ownership, the non-controlling interest was measured by proportionate share in the recognized amounts of the identifiable net assets. The change in non-controlling interest at the time of the May 15, 2018 transaction and the acquisition of the non-controlling interest at the time of the August 14, 2018 transaction were also measured by the proportionate share of net identifiable assets method.

 

The equity transaction is as follows for the increase to 65% ownership:

 

   Preliminary

Agro-Biotech

 

On May 2, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Agro-Biotech Sciences Inc. and its affiliate Agro-Biotech Property Holdings Inc. (together “Agro-Biotech”), and the shareholder loans payable by Agro-Biotech, for total consideration of $90 million, subject to adjustment, payable 50% in cash and 50% in Common Shares (the “Purchase Price”). The Company paid $22.5 million in cash upon closing and $45 million was satisfied by the issuance of 9,911,894 Common Shares of which 4,955,947 Common Shares will be held in escrow until May 1, 2019 pursuant to an escrow agreement (Note 17). The remaining $22.5 million in cash is payable on May 1, 2019.

 

Until such time as the remaining $22.5 million cash payment is made, 21,491,603 shares, being equal to 25% of the outstanding Agro-Biotech Sciences Inc. shares, and 750 shares, being equal to 25% of the outstanding Agro-Biotech Property Holdings Inc. shares, will be held in escrow.

 

Agro-Biotech is a Licensed Producer under the Cannabis Act.

 

Management has determined that on the date of acquisition, Agro-Biotech did not have significant processes or outputs, therefore Agro-Biotech does not meet the definition of a business under IFRS 3 Business Combinations. As a result, the transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition.

 

The total purchase price of the acquisition and the fair value of the net assets acquired of Agro-Biotech are disclosed below:

6.BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

 

The Company’s biological assets consist of cannabis seeds and cannabis plants. Changes in the Company’s biological assets are as follows:

 

   September 30
2018
   December 31
2017
 
   $   $ 
Carrying amount, beginning of period   114,559    162,986 
Costs incurred until harvest   -    218,874 
Effect of unrealized changes in fair value of biological assets   2,674,261    (1,977)
Biological assets purchased   3,841    - 
Biological assets sold   (133,680)   - 
Transferred to inventory upon harvest   (868,703)   (265,324)
Carrying amount, end of period   1,790,278    114,559 

 

As at September 30, 2018, included in the carrying amount of biological assets is $28,570 (December 31, 2017 - $25,113) in seeds and $1,761,708 (December 31, 2017 - $89,446) in live plants.

 

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

 

·plant waste based on various stages of growth;
·yield per plant;
·selling price, less costs to sell;
·percentage of costs incurred to date compared to the total costs to be incurred (to estimate the fair value of an in-process plant); and
·costs incurred for each stage of plant growth.

 

As at September 30, 2018, on average, the biological assets were 43% complete as to the next expected harvest date, compared to a 40% average stage of completion as at September 30, 2017.

 

Biological assets are classified as Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy. Significant unobservable inputs used to fair value biological assets include the Company’s estimate of the yield of medical cannabis per plant. A 5% increase or decrease in the estimated yield of cannabis per plant would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value of biological assets of $88,085 at September 30, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $4,472).

8.COST OF GOODS SOLD

 

Cost of sales represents the deemed cost of inventory that arose from the fair value measurement of biological assets, subsequent post-harvest costs capitalized to inventory, purchased dried cannabis, costs to produce cannabis oils capitalized to inventory (including the deemed cost of dried inventory that arose from the fair value measurement of biological assets that were used to produce cannabis oils), and packaging costs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company granted 2,017,500 stock options to employees and consultants. The stock options granted had exercise prices between $2.49 and $6.68, have expiry dates of five years and vest over three years. The weighted average fair value of the stock options granted was $2.28. The weighted average trading share price of the options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $5.56.

 

The fair values of the options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were determined on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

   September 30
2018

Expected annualized volatility   80%   80%
Expected dividend yield   Nil    Nil 
Weighted average Black-Scholes value of each option  $2.28   $0.59 

 

Volatility was estimated by using the historical volatility of other companies that the Company considers comparable that have similar trading and volatility history. The expected life in years represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on Canada government bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options.
