HEXO (HEXO) 40-F/A 2019 FY Annual report (Canada) (amended)

Exhibit 99.9

As we develop and expand our operations and product offerings, we remain focused on containing costs and profitability. Our operations team is leveraging data and analytical tracking to improve our yield per plant. We’ve linked sales and operations and are closely managing our production schedule with expected demand to drive efficiency. In order to ensure that we remain competitive, we will right size the organization to ensure that the appropriate amount of operating expense is in place for the business at this stage.

We are making up for our changing environment by re-committing to the fundamentals: growing high-quality cannabis at a low cost, deploying capital responsibly, and innovation. Increasingly, cannabis is becoming a consumer offering that offers a broad spectrum of experiences to be savoured and enjoyed. As we continue to innovate and expand our product line, consumers will be met with a range of offerings to enhance their lifestyle. Whether it’s rest and relaxation, increased fun, sleep support, pain relief, or otherwise, we’ve built a world-class research and development team, composed of scientists and innovators from across the food, beverage, cosmetics and pharmaceutical sectors, and have amassed impressive intellectual property (patents pending) that puts us in a position to revolutionize how cannabis is consumed.

Ultimately, while we are driving growth and value for our shareholders, we are also focused on the way our operations impact the natural and social environment on a local, provincial, national and global level. Consumers and investors expect more from the companies they support, and we expect to meet these demands.

At the very root, HEXO Corp is plant-based business. Our success is directly linked to the viability and sustainability of the astounding cannabis sativa plant. While we have a responsibility to ethically and cost-effectively produce quality cannabis and derivative products, we also have a responsibility towards our planet. Climate change is a real threat for all industries, sectors and jurisdictions. We benefit – thanks to our success – from a public platform. We’ve chosen to leverage this platform for good, in the hopes of contributing to and maybe even leading a global movement of like-minded companies that are committed to having a positive impact on the world. In the last fiscal year, we completed our greenhouse gas inventory for 2018 and will soon report the results and emission reduction targets we’ve set. But we are just getting started, and I look forward to sharing more about our plans to do more than our share to mitigate climate change.

The cannabis industry is transformative, disruptive and exciting. Together with other industry leaders, we are shaping the future of cannabis in Canada and globally and redefining hypergrowth in business. It i’s not for the faint of heart, and I am proud to have brought together the hard-working, highly skilled professionals that make HEXO Corp the company it is today. I am more confident than ever in our capacity to rise to the top.

Management’s Discussion & Analysis

For the years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018

(In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts, and where otherwise noted)

This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of HEXO Corp (formerly The Hydropothecary Corporation) and our wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “we” or “us” or “our” or “Company” or “HEXO”) is for the year ended July 31, 2019 and 2018. HEXO is a publicly traded corporation, incorporated in Ontario, Canada. The common shares of HEXO trade under the symbol “HEXO” on both the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). This MD&A is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, our audited annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. All amounts presented herein are stated in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Notice to Reader - As described in Note 34 of the restated the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2019, the Company has corrected the identified errors below.

The deferred tax liability was overstated as at July 31, 2019, as it was not offset by a deferred tax asset relating to a tax loss generated in one subsidiary against a deferred tax liability generated by a separate subsidiary. Due to the two tax positions existing in two separate entities, the Company’s original position was that they could not be offset or reduce one another. The applicable subsidiaries were amalgamated on August 1, 2019. The correction of this error resulted in a reduction of the deferred tax liability and deficit, by $14,373, as at July 31, 2019. Additionally, net loss for the year ended July 31, 2019 was overstated by $14,373.

In assessing the financial impact of subsequent events, the Company also determined additional write-down of its cannabis trim based inventory based on the estimated fair market value due to new and available third party information resulting in an increased impairment loss on inventory of $2,417.

This MD&A has been prepared by reference to the MD&A disclosure requirements established under National Instrument51-102, Continuous Disclosure Obligations, of the Canadian Securities Administrators.

2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Company Overview

HEXO Corp is helping shape an entirely new legal cannabis market – in Canada and abroad. We are working to change the world; and we are just getting started.

Just six years ago, two entrepreneurs set out to corner the cannabis market in Canada. Laying roots in the province of Quebec, the Company was influential in stimulating market acceptance and support, raising significant capital in the public markets since the beginning of fiscal year 2018. We have agreements and arrangements in place to supply cannabis in nine provinces, including a five-year supply contract with Quebec’s Société québécoise du cannabis (“SQDC”). In total, we have governmental or private retail distribution agreements covering most major Canadian markets, reaching over 95% of the Canadian population. Our brands – HEXO and Up – are available to Canadians across the country.

Today, HEXO is a consumer-packaged goods (“CPG”) cannabis technology company that has increased its focus globally. We believe that building a brand comes primarily from a strong distribution system and product quality, and from making a meaningful commitment to sustainability. Through our Hub and Spoke strategy, we are centralizing our intellectual property and branding it “powered by HEXO” and as we have done with Molson Coors Canada (“Molson”) we plan to partner with Fortune 500 companies in different facets of the CPG market, to participate in the cannabis market beginning in Canada and around the world. Fundamentally, we bring our brand value, cannabinoid isolation, formulation and delivery technology, licensed infrastructure and regulatory expertise to established companies, and in turn, we plan to leverage their international distribution, base products and their deep understanding of consumer markets.

We aim to provide a clear, legal regulatory path into worldwide markets and best in class technology to our current and future partners. We believe the U.S. represents a significant market in the evolution of the cannabis industry, and that to establish global cannabis brands, our goal is to be successful there. As the U.S. market continues to develop, we intend to bring American consumers innovative, consistent, and high-quality hemp-derived cannabidiol (“CBD”) infused products “powered by HEXO”. Through these partnerships, we plan to focus on large-scale CBD extraction from hemp, providing high quality ingredients to our current and future Fortune 500 partners, as well as hemp derivative wholesaling.

We have a history of innovation driven by our experienced management team. Under their leadership, we are building a robust research and development team to deliver the cannabis experiences sought by the market. We are among the cannabis industry’s top innovators, with award-winning products such as Elixir, Canada’s first line of cannabis peppermint oil sublingual sprays, and decarb, an activated cannabis powder designed for oral consumption. We are also pioneering a line of sexual health products with Fleur de Lune and have won top awards for the quality of ourpre-rolled cannabis products. Our ability to develop consistent advanced cannabis formulations for use in world-renowned brands – beverages, food, cosmetics, and more – has already garnered the attention of Molson and resulted in the creation of Truss, an exclusive venture to developnon-alcoholic, cannabis-infused beverages. Our Innovation team is structured across three pillars, Clinical Evaluation, Advanced Research and Applied Research. We employ researchers and PHDs from extensive product development backgrounds driving the execution of better, scientifically supported, cannabis-based experiences.

Our goal is to become a top global cannabis company with top market share in Canada.After establishing a strong presence within our home market of Quebec, we are expanding nationally on a larger scale. Our objective is to execute on our existing supply agreements and arrangements with entities across nine provinces, and to successfully manage our distribution centre responsible for all SQDC online sale cannabis distribution. We also possess a strategic relationship with the private cannabis retailer Spirit Leaf. This private retail presence will allow us to expand our expected distribution presence within these provinces.

During the period we completed the acquisition of Newstrike Brands Ltd (“Newstrike”). This acquisition further strengthens HEXO’s presence within Canada by adding Up, a reputable brand already established within the cannabisadult-use market, to HEXO’s house of brands. Along with the brand, HEXO acquired several supply agreements and an additional private retail partnership to its national distribution network.

Ultimately, we know that if we want to achieve our goals, we need to think about more than just our products and prices. We must also examine the way our operations impact the natural and social environment on a local, provincial and national level. HEXO is monitoring and reporting on its greenhouse gas emissions, setting targets to reduce them, and offsetting its footprint. As members of the Global Cannabis Partnership, we will also be reporting on other Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) impact areas based on Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI) standards.

The global cannabis market is estimated to reach $250 billion in the next ten years. HEXO believes that in a few years, a handful of companies will control 70% of global market share and we believe HEXO is poised to be one of those companies.

To date, we have sold over 10.8 million grams ofadult-use and medical cannabis to thousands of Canadians who count on us for safe and reputable, high-quality products. We have developed an extensive and award-winning product range, and gained valuable experience and knowledge, while serving our customers.

3 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

We currently hold approximately 1.3 million sq. ft. of operating space at our home base Gatineau campus. In addition, we have leased 579,000 sq. ft. of industrial real estate for manufacturing, distribution and product research and development needs in Belleville, Ontario, with rights of first offer and first refusal to lease the remaining space in the 1.5 million sq. ft. facility; another 58,000 sq. ft. of leased distribution space in Montreal, Quebec, and an additional 469,000 sq. ft. in Brantford and Niagara once fully retrofitted. Once licensed, HEXO also plans to operate a 14,200 sq. ft. food research laboratory in Vaughan, Ontario and a 19,600 sq. ft. laboratory in Montreal, Quebec.

We are currently dual listed on the TSX and the NYSE and in doing so have increased HEXO’s access to the United States and global investors.

We do not, and do not intend to, engage in direct or indirect business with any business that derives revenue, directly or indirectly, from the sale of cannabis, cannabis products or cannabinoid-containing products in any jurisdiction where the sale of cannabis is unlawful under applicable laws. HEXO does not currently engage in any unlawful U.S. marijuana-related activities as defined in Canadian Securities Administrators Staff Notice51-352, and will only do so in the future to the extent fully legal under all applicable U.S. federal and state laws.

Strategic Priorities

Since inception, we have laid the foundation to be a world leader that serves bothadult-use and medical cannabis markets. In everything we do – innovation, cultivation, production, product development, distribution – we exercise rigor in order to offeradult-use consumers and medical cannabis patients uncompromising quality and safety. We believe that we can leverage our demonstrated success in Canada as we expand to global cannabis markets.

Our strategy sees us becoming part of the top three global cannabis companies, with a top two market share in Canada. Our strategy is built on three pillars:operational scalability, innovative products and brand leadership. To achieve brand leadership, we will set up the legal, physical, and human capital infrastructure to participate in legal markets across the globe. We plan to invest in even better, science-backed cannabis experiences, and we look to partner with Fortune 500 companies to leverage their base products, international distribution platforms and deep understanding of the consumer occasion in their respective verticals.

Given the different regulations governing the sale ofadult-use cannabis across Canada, the number of large-scale licensed producers and today’s limited but growing cultivation capacity, among other factors, we believe the initial years following legalization will be the most critical in determining the future shape of the cannabis industry in Canada, and that early distribution and financial performance will be critical to securing a market leader position.

For this and other reasons, we have deliberately set out to build a strong position in our initial jurisdiction, Quebec, while making strategic inroads in select other markets across the country through provincial supply agreements and private retail partnerships. Now having entered theadult-use market as one of the largest producers and suppliers by market capitalization, we are looking beyond the Canadian border to take HEXO international, where regulations permit. We are making continuous efforts to assess global opportunities in current and future medical andadult-use markets.

We have positioned ourselves to meet the smokeless cannabis demand through our venture with Molson, our first partner within our Hub and Spoke business model. We expect to launch a full line of beverage products in partnership with Molson through our venture, Truss. We currently expect regulations to allow these products to be made available for consumption during the first six months of calendar 2020. We continue to explore other opportunities for analogous ventures to introduce into the cannabis market. Even as we continue to execute on our business plans in Quebec, Ontario and across the country, we believe we have established ourself as a desirable business partner for cannabis control authorities, private retail, and potential Fortune 500 joint-arrangement partners in Canada.

As the cannabis and cannabis derivative markets evolve, we are constantly assessing and implementing ways to integrate our quality products with the product offerings of Fortune 500 companies and become a premium branded partner for CPG companies. We will seek to accomplish this through several means: by providing our prospective partners regulatory access to legal markets as well as distribution infrastructure and delivery systems across most provinces; by offering best in class technology through innovative product development and a strong IP portfolio.

4 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

HEXO CORP HUB AND SPOKE BUSINESS MODEL

We have taken significant steps to ensure that we are prepared to meet the future demand of the CBD derivative product markets within Canada and globally. This includes having secured a large and steady supply of quality hemp for product transformation at our Belleville Centre of Excellence, once the facility is licensed and completed.

During the period, we established the joint entity Keystone Isolation Technologies Inc. (“KIT”) of which HEXO holds a 60% interest. Through KIT we have obtained high capacity, top echelon technology for cleaning outdoor field hemp of harmful pesticides, which we believe gives us an edge in bringing quality extracts to the U.S. We believe KIT will provide the Company with high quality extraction technology to facilitate an efficiently processed and consistent supply of CBD and THC to supply the Canadian and U.S. markets for cannabis derivatives.

We have eight high CBD hemp strains in tissue culture in partnership with the University of Guelph as we are preparing the groundwork to evolve to a field sourced, forward contract supply model in the U.S., applying our strong quality assurance, control protocols, and hemp genetics to our farming partnerships.    

Our commitment to quality and safety is supported by our compliance with Health Canada’s stringent quality control requirements, our top of the line production system, fullseed-to-sale traceability, third party independent testing and an online system to post our product testing results.

HEXO U.S.

The U.S. cannabis market represents the Company’s next significant growth opportunity.

During the period the Company established its wholly owned U.S. based entity HEXO USA Inc on May 19, 2019, to be a leading partner for CPG expansion.

KIT will allow HEXO to supply future American CPG partners with “powered by HEXO” hemp-derived cannabidiol (“CBD”) experiences and enter the market in a strategic position to begin generating revenues by leveraging the Company’s experience in cannabis. KIT’s purpose is to provide a scalable, efficient, cost effective and reliable extraction and isolation of CBD from hemp to fulfil demand for our powered by HEXO emulsifications.

We believe that strategic partners will be able to benefit from HEXO’s innovative product development, advanced research and development, intellectual property portfolio (pending patent approvals), low production cost, licensed infrastructure and regulatoryknow-how. These same strategic partnerships will provide the Company with established global distribution platforms and product expertise.

5 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The Company is aiming to enter select U.S. states over the course of the next fiscal year and is taking important strides to offer its “powered by HEXO” products through KIT and our future partners, to the U.S. CBD markets, to the extent that such activities fully comply with applicable U.S. federal and state laws, including U.S. Food and Drug Administration requirements.

THREE STRATEGIC PILLARS

Scalability

We have been cultivating cannabis for five years under the Cannabis Act of 2018 regulatory regime and its predecessor (“Cannabis Regulations”), growing and producing high-quality cannabis with consistent yields. We are constantly evaluating and updating our cultivating practices and technology to further drive efficiencies.

We chose to initially locate in Gatineau, Quebec, because we believe the province offers the ideal conditions for cannabis production: is an abundant supply of renewable electricity at competitive rates, combined with abundant water resources and the availability of skilled people. We have expanded our cultivation footprint into Ontario through the acquisition of Newstrike.

On the border of Canada’s two largest consumer markets, Quebec and Ontario, our main campus in Gatineau positions us in close proximity to two of the country’s major urban areas, Greater Montreal and the National Capital Region. Furthermore, our 579,000 sq. ft. Centre of Excellence in Belleville, Ontario which is currently undergoing leasehold retrofitting and Health Canada licensing, is ideally situated between the National Capital Region and Toronto.

Our Gatineau campus includes several facilities representing a total of 1,310,000 sq. ft. The Gatineau campus includes our original 7,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a 35,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a 250,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a warehouse, two stand-alone laboratories, two modular buildings for final packaging and customer service, and our 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse all located on our143-acre land parcel.

Our Newstrike campuses located in Brantford and Niagara Ontario contribute 14,000 sq. ft. and 455,000 sq. ft. (once fully retrofitted) respectively, across 17.6 acres of land.

We have expanded into Europe through HEXO MED S.A. (“HEXO MED”), a venture with our partner QNBS P.C. HEXO MED will result in potential additional production capacity and a Eurozone foothold to serve the legal cannabis markets in the United Kingdom, France and other jurisdictions where regulations permit. HEXO MED’s plans include the development of a 350,000 sq. ft. licensed facility in Greece. HEXO Corp currently holds a 51% interest in the venture.

We have accumulated a strong and skillful workforce, as well as a top management group which provides cannabis-specific industry expertise and other relevant business knowledge derived from a variety of industries and markets.

6 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

HEXO GROUP OF FACILITIES

¹ Pending Health Canada R&D cannabis licensing (anticipated for Q2 of fiscal 2020)

Product Innovation

Empowering the world to have safe and pleasurable cannabis experiences powered by HEXO technology.

Our strategic priorities reflect our belief that companies that achieve large-scale distribution and high brand awareness will drive long-term shareholder value in our industry. We aim to be the best partner for provincial cannabis distribution and retail authorities, while being recognized for delivering our “powered by HEXO” experiences across the full spectrum of products, price points and delivery methods.

As we develop our consumer-focused product innovation plan, we continue to build on our cannabis experience concepts such as sleep, sport, focus, diet, sex and fun, which will deliver faston-set response and reliableoff-set timing. These experience concepts will provide a valuable resource for consumers selecting appropriate products for their respective needs.

Sleep – to relax and quiet the mind

Sport – to be active and energetic, recover quicker and reduce inflammation

Focus – to be alert, concentrated and more productive

Diet – to help curb desire for food

Sex – to bring intimacy and arousal

Fun – to enjoy social gatherings

7 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

We continue to prepare to take advantage of opportunities in the edibles market, which is expected to launch in Canada in late calendar 2019 or early 2020. Products that we intend to introduce include, but are not limited to vapes, edibles such as confectionary and baked goods, cosmetics, andnon-alcoholic beverages through our venture with Molson Coors Canada.

Our focus on research, innovation and product development also reflects our strategic priorities. Our Chief Innovation Officer who benefits from 25 years of experience in CPG innovation and her team are actively exploring ways to increase our expertise related to cannabis applications and forms of delivery, and to expand our product range and brand portfolio. Activities include current and potential partnerships, ventures and strategic acquisitions of intellectual property and related transactions.

To date the Company has filed 38 patent applications related to various formulations, vape devices, beverages, cultivation and extraction technologies as well as other areas.

During the period, we acquired two new research facilities to further strengthen our IP portfolio and produce unique value-added products to the cannabis derivative market. Once licensed and completed, the new 14,200 sq. ft facility in Vaughan, Ontario will serve as the Company’s food laboratory in which confectionary and edible product research and development will take place. The second additional facility in Montreal, Quebec will also house general research and development activity in the 19,600 sq. ft. space when licensed and completed.

The cannabis industry has already recognized us as an innovative leader, as demonstrated by our award-winning products Elixir and decarb. We also offer Fleur de Lune, one of Canada’s firstintimate-use cannabis oils.

Beyond the funds required for our currently planned investments in cultivation, distribution and processing capacity, we expect to allocate the majority of our capital to branding, product innovation, international expansion and production, while remaining alert for strategic transactions that create shareholder value. An element of this focus is the development of our Belleville, Ontario facility, which, once licensed and completed will house manufacturing, distribution and product research and development activities for the Company and its future products, as well as the operations of our Truss venture. This approach will directly support our continued leadership position in the Canadian cannabis market – as both a distributor and a product innovator.

Brand Leadership

Striving to create a sustainable, notable and beloved brand.

HEXO shares the broad industry view that brands will win long term; however, we have a controversial view that brands don’t exist today in the cannabis industry. Our companies have logos but little brand recognition in our markets, due in great part to highly restrictive marketing rules as set out by our regulators. The best brands have achieved less than 10% spontaneous awareness, based on the Company’s analysis of third-party research data. HEXO tracks consumer awareness of all the major cannabis brands and, although we believe HEXO is in the top tiers of awareness compared to peers, all cannabis companies are completely underrecognized relative to large CPG global brands. We believe that HEXO can build a global house of brands, but we will only declare success once we have 80% spontaneous awareness in select markets.

8 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The goal of HEXO Corp is to continue to offer a diverse house of brands, representing innovation, quality and consistency of experience, and become a top two Canadian market share brand with a top three global market share position. We believe that the key to doing this is by creating brands that resonate with consumers across market segments.

Original Stash

ADULT-USE

Subsequent to the end of fiscal 2019, HEXO broadened its house of brands to include Original Stash, a mass market brand that goes back to why we consume cannabis: for the simple pleasure it gives us. Original Stash is focused on frequent Canadian cannabis consumers, who want quality cannabis, but are conscious of legal market premiums.

PRODUCT OFFERINGS

Under our Original Stash brand, HEXO continues to disrupt the market with our first product offering of OS.210, a28-gram blend of cannabis flower. This volume format is the first of its kind in the legal Canadian market, and HEXO is proud to be able to bring it to Canadian consumers.

Authentic. Uncomplicated. Quality. Low price.

9 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

HEXO

ADULT-USE & MEDICAL                

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company announced HEXO as theadult-use brand name that will serve the legalized Canadianadult-use market. As a brand, HEXO shares the same focus on award-winning product innovation and high-quality cannabis that the market has come to expect from its former medical sister brand, Hydropothecary. The former Hydropothecary medical brand has integrated under the HEXO brand name.

PRODUCT OFFERINGS

Currently, HEXO offers 37 product offering variations of its dried cannabis and cannabis-derived products under two product types: dried – flower, milled and pre roll; and oils – Elixir and Fleur de Lune.

Flower, Milled and Pre Roll –The HEXOadult-use brand offers a relatively wide spectrum of CBD and THC levels, through sativa, hybrid and indica plant strains. HEXO offers flower products and milled cannabis products in 3.5g and 15g formats. HEXO also carries pre roll products.

Elixir and Fleur de Lune -Elixir, a cannabis oil sublingual spray product line, includes both a high tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”), high CBD and 1:1 content, and is Canada’s only peppermint-based cannabis oil product. All three products are also available in an MCT carrier oil. Fleur de Lune is one of Canada’s first cannabis-based THC intimate oils. Both products provide alternative, smokeless methods to consume cannabis. HEXO offers sixoil-based spray products as well as anintimate-use oil product.

HEXO recently was the winner of the 2019 O’Cannabiz Industry Awards for best sativa for itspre-rolls and Helios dried flower. HEXO’s Elixir won the “Cannabis Product of the Year” and “Innovation of the Year” awards at the 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards. HEXO was also nominated for “Brand of the Year.” Our decarb product was voted “Top New Product’’ at the 2017 Canadian Cannabis Awards.

10 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

UP

ADULT-USE

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company added the Up brand to its suite of offerings. The Up brand lives within HEXO Corp’s house of brands portfolio, and is rapidly establishing itself as a prominent player in theadult-use cannabis market. With a strong connection to music, its premium quality products are “grown on tunes”, a unique growing methodology that runs through the entire plant’s lifecycle. That, together with a strategic partnership with the Tragically Hip, provides a solid foundation for clear market differentiation.

PRODUCT OFFERINGS

Currently, Up offers 12 dried flower andpre-roll products across 8 provinces. Similar to the HEXO offerings, the Upadult-use brand offers a spectrum of CBD and THC levels, through its sativa, hybrid and indica plant strains. These products are offered in a range of 1g, 3.5g and 7g formats.

11 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Distribution

Processing and distribution capacity has significantly increased over the past fiscal year, with the activation and full licensing of our 250,000 sq. ft. greenhouse and a new 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse, each at our Gatineau campus. Additionally, through our acquisition of Newstrike, we acquired astate-of-the-art greenhouse and an indoor production facility with production and distribution capabilities currently being retrofitted and estimated to be completed for the end of Q1 to early Q2 of fiscal 2020.

The Company has acquired an interest in a 1.5 million sq. ft. facility in Belleville, Ontario, through the venture Belleville Complex Inc. established with a related party. The Company received the renewal of its Health Canada licensing for the Gatineau facilities on October 16, 2019 and continues to retrofit the Belleville Centre of Excellence ahead of licensing for the purposes of manufacturing value-added cannabis products, increasing capacity for distribution and storage and research and development activities. The Company currently holds a lease to 579,000 sq. ft. of the Belleville facility and has rights of first offer and first refusal to lease the remaining space in the building. Once licensed and completed, the Belleville Centre of Excellence will act as the main research, development and processing facility for HEXO’s cannabis derivative products.

The process of licensing the full 1.5 million sq. ft Belleville Centre of Excellence in phases and ensuring it meets the requirements of the Cannabis Regulations may impact the initial operational timeline of the facility. However, this will provide the Company with the opportunity to offer its prospective partners withturn-key access to a cannabis sector ready facility. The centralized location of the facility, the Company’s first outside of Quebec is ideally situated along primary shipping routes to distribute our products and fulfill commitments across Canada. This facility further delivers on our national expansion strategy and ensures necessary capacity for the manufacture of advanced cannabis products, including vapes,non-alcoholic beverages, other edible cannabis products and cosmetics.

The Company has also bolstered its distribution capacity with the establishment of a distribution and storage centre in Montreal, Quebec formed with Metro Supply Chain Inc. This 58,000 sq. ft. facility was strategically acquired for logistical purposes. Through it, we supply cannabis for alldirect-to-customer sales placed in Quebec through the SQDC’s online store. Additionally, we house, supply and distributedirect-to-customers the cannabis products of all licensed producers who have contracts with the SQDC through this distribution centre.

The Company now holds supply agreements and arrangements with entities across nine provinces. The Company is present within 23 private cannabis retailers across Ontario and has a strategic alliance agreement with the cannabis retailer Spirit Leaf.

12 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Canadian Cannabis Market

On October 17, 2018, Canada became the largest nation in the world to offer medical andnon-medical,adult-use cannabis nationally. The legalization of theadult-use market on this date resulted in $43 million of sales within the first two weeks according to Statistics Canada. In the 10 weeks between October 17^th and December 31, 2018, Canadians purchased more than 20,650 kg of dried cannabis and 20,096 liters of cannabis oil according to Statistics Canada. As demand continues to grow, public and private distribution channels become fully established and with the legalization of the edibles market on the horizon, HEXO believes it is strategically positioned to serve these markets through our partnerships, production capacity and supply contracts.

All provinces and territories have established their respective cannabis market retail approach, ranging from private entities to government-owned retail, as well as a combined approach in several jurisdictions. We have positioned ourselves through supply agreements and arrangements for distribution within Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Quebec, where we hold Canada’s largest single supply agreement. We have also made strategic investments in the private cannabis retail sector. The result: our award-winning and innovative products are available in nine provinces in Canada.

Retail distribution channels by province and territory:

RETAIL DISTRIBUTION BY PROVINCE

13 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

QUEBEC

In Quebec, which has a population of 8.4 million, or approximately 23% of the Canadian population, the SQDC operates the sale and distribution ofadult-use cannabis. The SQDC has established 21 retail locations throughout the province, forin-store cannabis sales. It expects to increase this number to 43 locations by March 2020. It also sells cannabis online.

The SQDC originally contracted 58 tons for Year 1 purchases from all licensed producers of cannabis. Due to supply shortages, initial sell-through is expected to be a little less than half of that amount. During thisstart-up phase, HEXO sold in 10 tons, achieving approximately 33% market share based on volume, and that is line with our goal.

Our contract required SQDC to purchase 20 tons in the first year, while we did not achieve these quantities during this period, we believe that exercising the committed 20 feature under the contract would be short sighted. We are, and will remain, a preferred supplier of the SQDC as we continue to expand our product offerings based on the demands of consumers.

We currently supply the SQDC with HEXO’s Elixir, THC and CBD formulas, and dried cannabis products. In addition, we hold a distribution agreement with the SQDC, which provides the storage and distribution all of the SQDC’s online product sales toend-users. This includes the product of all licensed producers with established supply agreements held with the SQDC. Operations of the distribution centre began in October 2018.

ONTARIO

In Ontario, which has a population of 14.4 million, or approximately 39% of the Canadian population, the government currently offers consumers a variety of cannabis products through online sales by the Ontario Cannabis Store (“OCS”). The province also allows privately owned retail including 23 initially licensed locations that serve theadult-use market. Initial product listings include dried cannabis, oil and capsule products,pre-rolled, and clones and seeds.

We currently hold supply agreements with the OCS, in which we supply the province with HEXO’s Elixir, THC and CBD formulas and Fleur de Lune, and dried cannabis products, as well as a variety of dried flower products under the Up brand. HEXO and Up also are currently present within over 23 private retailers throughout the province. This approach will allow us to serve the diverse market demand of Ontario with a variety of combustible and smokeless cannabis products.

BRITISH COLUMBIA

British Columbia, which has a population of 5.0 million, or approximately 13% of the Canadian population, serves theadult-use cannabis market through a dual private–government approach. The British Columbia Liquor Distribution Branch (“BCLDB”) manages the distribution of cannabis and cannabis-based products. We hold supply agreements with the BCLDB, in which we supply our HEXO THC and CBDoil-based Elixir and HEXO Fleur de Lune products and Up brand products.

ALBERTA

The Company has received cannabis representative status with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Board to supply it with products offered online and in stores. This will allow HEXO to supply our award-winning THC and CBDoil-based Elixir products as well as nine dried flower cannabis products. HEXO and Up products will be made available to the 4.3 million residents or approximately 12% of the total Canadian population.

OTHER OBTAINED CANADIAN MARKETS

We currently have established distribution channels within 5 additional provincial markets including Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Manitoba and Prince Edward Island which represent 12% of the Canadian population. These channels include both supply agreements and supplier arrangements with provincial governments and private retailers.

CanadianAdult-Use Market 2.0

Canadian legalization of additional cannabis derivative product categories occurred in October 2019, and distribution is expected to commence during the first six months of calendar 2020. The Company is working to ensure it meets expected market demands and continues to prepare for its edibles market product offerings. Initially, HEXO intends to meet the cannabis derivative market with our premium vapes and beverage products, followed by the roll out of our gummies and chocolate product offerings. We plan to add product offerings to the portfolio over time. Through HEXO’s proven innovation capability and quality cannabis that the currentadult-use market has come to expect, this new platform for cannabis derivative products offers us the ability to target curious newadult-use clientele and attract consumers who may otherwise purchase cannabis from unlicenced dispensaries and black market participants. We will do this by offering legal, safe, consistent, tested and appealing new product options.

Having previously announced its intention to focus on research, development and innovation, HEXO took another step towards this goal in establishing two new laboratory and development centres in Montreal, Quebec and Vaughan, Ontario. Once licensed and complete, the locations will serve as global research and development hubs for the Company’s Innovation, Development and Engineering (IDE) led by HEXO’s Chief Innovation Officer, Veronique Hamel. The team brings together extensive experience in research and development, sensory science, clinical evaluation, biotechnology and food engineering.

14 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The HEXO IDE team has sweeping experience in the food, pharma and CPG industries with accumulated career experience with Coca Cola, Altria Group, Mondelez International, Kellogg’s, Unilever, Church and Dwight, Shopper’s Drugmart, Loblaws, Kerr’s Bros. and Campbell’s Soup Company. For example, the team’s Director of Research & Development – Edibles, Trina Farr, has more than 20 years of experience in food innovation and product development and was most recently the Director of Research and Development at Smuckers Foods of Canada. HEXO is also proud to have its ownin-house cannabis-infused chocolates expert. Focused on creating a cannabis chocolates experience, Canna Chocolatier Todd Neault is working on formulating fast-acting, consistent and delectable chocolates.

HEXO is focused on developing a product portfolio that is guided by a deep understanding of consumer needs. To better understand these needs, a variety of research methodologies have been deployed by a third-party research provider in select markets in Canada and the U.S. These methodologies include, but are not limited to:

• Segmentation: A way of viewing the market as a series ofsub-groups rather than a whole. Members of eachsub-group had similar traits but were distinct from othersub-groups.

• Qualitative Research & Ethnographies: A methodology of collecting consumer insights which involves face-to-face interaction and the observation (and questioning) of behaviours to better understand the person.

Leveraging the insights we’ve collected – and will continue to collect – HEXO is committed to developing products and formulations that not only meet, but exceed, the evolving needs of consumers.

Recognizing that innovation is always evolving, HEXO will make significant investments in fine-tuning our technologies to enhance consistency, predictability, and safety across our range of cannabis products and experiences.

To ensure it can bring an expanded offering to market, the Company boasts a multi-year extraction agreement with Valens GroWorks Corp. Once licensed and completed, the Company will also have mass-scale extraction capabilities at its centre of excellence in Belleville, Ontario. HEXO also recently announced the appointment of Donald Courtney as Chief Operating Officer, who has extensive experience with several global food and beverage organizations including Mars Inc, Pepsi Bottling Group and Vincor International.

Acquisition of Newstrike Brands Ltd.

THE TRANSACTION

On May 24, 2019, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Newstrike through a plan of arrangement. Under the arrangement, each former Newstrike common share was exchanged for 0.06332 of a HEXO common share (the “Exchange Ratio”), subject to certain exceptions. In addition, all issued and outstanding stock options of Newstrike were replaced with stock options of HEXO having the same terms but adjusted for the Exchange Ratio, and all issued and outstanding common share purchase warrants of Newstrike became exercisable for HEXO common shares adjusted for the Exchange Ratio.

Following the acquisition, the Newstrike shares were delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) as at the close of trading on May 29, 2019. Certain classes of Newstrike warrants which were listed for trading on the TSXV under the symbol HIP.WT and HIP.WT.A will continue to trade on the TSXV until the earliest to occur of their exercise, expiry or delisting.

As a result of the acquisition, the Company issued a total of 35,394,041 common shares to the former shareholders of Newstrike, and reserved an additional 2,002,365 and 7,196,164 common shares for issuance to the former holders of the Newstrike options and the holders of the Newstrike warrants, respectively.

INTRODUCTION

Newstrike is the parent company of Up Cannabis Inc (“Up”), a licensed producer of cannabis based out of Ontario that is licensed under the Cannabis Regulations to both cultivate and sell cannabis in all acceptable forms. Newstrike, through Up and together with select strategic partners, including Canada’s iconic musicians The Tragically Hip, has established of a diverse network of high-quality cannabis brands.

15 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

ACQUISITION HIGHLIGHTS

Facilities & Cultivation Boost

The acquisition of Newstrike added two additional facilities to the HEXO group, one in Niagara, Ontario and the other in Brantford, Ontario.

The Niagara facility is a 240,000 sq. ft fully automated, modern “Dutch-Tray” facility, consisting of 186,400 sq. ft licensed for production and cultivation, with the remaining space allocated to administration, packaging and shipping/receiving areas. The facility is currently capable of producing up to 20,000 kg of dried cannabis annually. This facility is situated on approximately 16.6 acre of land and received its cultivation licence under the Cannabis Act on March 29, 2018.The Niagara facility is currently undergoing a retrofit which is expected to be completed during the end of Q1 to early Q2, fiscal 2020. Once completed, the retrofit will add approximately 215,000 sq. ft. of additional space and will bring the total Niagara campus to approximately 455,000 sq. ft. of cultivation, production, packaging, shipping and administrative space.

On October 24, 2019, the Company announced that it has taken steps to reduce its workforce. The Company is rightsizing its operations to adjust to a changing market and regulatory environment with a view towards profitability and long-term stability. The actions taken are intended to rightsize the organization to the revenue the Company expects to achieve in fiscal 2020. As part of the changes to its operations, cultivation has been suspended at the Niagara facility acquired from Newstrike. The Company determined that this cultivation space is not required at this time given the current market conditions in Canada. HEXO continues to drive improvements in yields and processing facilities. Operations in the suspended areas can be recommenced when required.

The Brantford facility is fully operational and licensed with an annual estimated production capacity of 2,000 kg of dried cannabis. It was designed and engineered to permit the application of the same pharmaceutical-quality management-standards utilized by Canada’s pharmaceutical manufacturers, to the production of cannabis in all acceptable forms. The Brantford facility has one mothering room; five grow-rooms used for propagation, vegetation and flowering; one trimming room; one drying room; one packaging room; one extraction room and two discrete shipping rooms, a“level-8” vault for the storage of dried and finished product and, if required, an aggregate of approximately 1,800 sq. ft. that can be repurposed for manufacturing, packaging and/or additional production facilities, all of which are supported and monitored bystate-of-the-art automated hydroponic cultivation, climate, security and control systems with additional layers of redundancy andback-up to mitigate the impact of systems or power failure. Each area within the Brantford facility is independently controlled and monitored, and each strain of cannabis produced in the Brantford Facility is subjected to rigorous and ongoing analytical testing.

Once retrofitting is completed and efficiencies of scale are reached across both of the Newstrike facilities, the total boost to HEXO’s production is estimated at 42,000 kg of annual dried cannabis, bringing HEXO’s total anticipated annual production capacity to 150,000 kg. Total consolidated facility space across HEXO’s five campuses will amount to approximately 2.4 million sq. ft. following licensing and completion

Domestic Distribution Channels

Newstrike has secured supply agreements with entities in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Ontario. Saskatchewan selected Newstrike to be a registered cannabis supplier for the province and Newstrike has received orders for products from the Nova Scotia Liquor Corporation and the Prince Edward Island Cannabis Management Corporation. In addition, Newstrike has entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Spirit Leaf, a private cannabis retailer.

These additional established distribution channels provide HEXO with domestic market penetration within nine provinces.

Up Brand

Within the Canadian cannabis market, Newstrike has developed a unique platform through its Up suite of products and partnership with the iconic band The Tragically Hip. This has been instrumental to its growth to date as an independent company. The Up brand has proven its concept through its presence across nine provincial markets in both public and private retailers. The acquisition of Newstrike provides HEXO the opportunity to implement Up brand products within its branding strategy and product offerings hierarchy as well as the flexibility to increase the variety of products it offers to theadult-use market.

Other Corporate Highlights

Supply Agreements of Hemp Secured for CBD Extraction

During the quarter, the Company entered into several hemp supply agreements/arrangements which are expected to provide a sufficient supply of hemp to meet the Company’s needs during fiscal 2020. These arrangements were established to facilitate a consistent and reliable supply oftop-quality hemp for CBD extraction purposes. We believe such a supply will become increasingly important as the CPG industry trends towards hemp-derived CBD infused products. This positions the Company to help meet the expected demand of the edibles and concentrates market.

19 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Non-IFRS Measures

We have included certainnon-IFRS performance measures in this MD&A, including adjusted gross margin, as defined in this section.

We employ these measures internally to measure our operating and financial performance.

We believe that thesenon-IFRS financial measures, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, enable investors to evaluate our operating results, underlying performance and future prospects in a manner similar to management.

As there are no standardized methods of calculating thesenon-IFRS measures, our methods may differ from those used by others, and accordingly, these measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures used by others. Accordingly, thesenon-IFRS measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

GROSS SALES

Gross sales are the revenues derived from the sale ofadult-use, medical and whole sale cannabis under the normal course of business and are inclusive of sales return provisions and exclusive of excise taxes.

ADJUSTED GROSS MARGIN

We use adjusted gross margin to provide a better representation of performance in the period by excludingnon-cash fair value measurements as required by IFRS. We believe this measure provides useful information as it represents the gross margin for management purposes based on cost to produce, package and ship inventory sold, exclusive of any fair value measurements as required by IFRS. The metric is calculated by removing all amounts related to biological asset fair value accounting under IFRS, including gains on transformation of biological assets and the cost of finished harvest inventory sold, which represents the fair value measured portion of inventory cost (“fair value cost adjustment”) recognized as cost of goods sold.

EXPECTED PLANT YIELD

The expected plant yield is utilized in the valuation of biological assets on hand as at the period end. This represents an unobservable input to a level 3 fair value estimate and is derived from the Company’s historical harvests as well as the expertise of the appropriate personnel. A sensitivity analysis over this input was performed and included in the ‘Biological Assets – Fair Value Measurement’ section below.

PRODUCTION CAPACITY

The production capacity disclosed throughout this report represents management’s best estimate and is derived from the historical actual output of production as well as the use of cultivation expertise existing within the Company.

KILOGRAMS PRODUCED

The kilograms harvested during the period representing the amount of dried gram and dried gram equivalents harvested and produced from biological assets but not necessarily sold during the period.

¹ Revenue outside of the primary operations of the Company.

Total net revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 increased to $15,424 from $1,410 in the same period of fiscal 2018. The main contributor is the addition ofadult-use sales which the Company is realizing in its first fiscal year of legalization in Canada.Adult-use sales in the quarter accounted for 91% of total revenue.Adult-use and wholesale revenues were reduced by sales provisions incurred in the quarter. These provisions are derived from managements estimates based upon price concessions and expected returns (see Note 3 of the audited annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018).

Non-cannabis ancillary sales which began in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 decrease to $29 from $61 in the previous quarter. This revenue is derived from a management agreement held by the Company with arms-length partners.

The Company expects net revenue for the first quarter to fiscal year 2020 to be $14,000 to $18,000, subject to retroactive adjustments required on inventory held by provinces, which is subject to price adjustments as the result of are-evaluating of pricing strategy. Furthermore, the Company expects to be EBITDA positive in calendar 2020, subject to certain assumptions regarding store count, operational improvements and cost saving initiatives.

ADULT-USE SALES

During the period,adult-use gross sales increased to $18,997 in the three months ended July 31, 2019. Contributing to the increase is the additional sales for the stub period of May 24, 2019 to July 31, 2019 from the acquired Newstrike during the period. This contributed $2,770 in additional gross cannabis sales in the period. HEXO also began to realize sales to the AGLC in the quarter which contributed $4,828. Quarterly sales increased 30% when compared to the prior quarter and increased $17,587 relative to the same period of fiscal 2018, (which included medical sales only during that period).

22 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The Company’s grossadult-use sales for the year ended July 31, 2019 totaled $53,590, an increase of $48,656 as compared to the total (medical only) sales of $4,934 in fiscal 2018. The increase is due to fiscal 2018 containing medical sales only.

Sales volume in the fourth quarter of 2019 increased 45% to 4,009 kg from 2,759 kg equivalents sold in the previous quarter of fiscal 2019. New in the quarter was the contribution of 971 kg sold to the AGLC and the 396 kg sold through Newstrike. Dried flower and milled products represented 89% of gram equivalents sold during the period, a 4% increase from the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and oil product sales comprising the balance of the quantity sold.    

During the quarter, grossadult-use revenue per gram equivalent decreased to $4.74 from $5.29 reflective of the price concessions and provision for sales returns recorded in the period. The provision is reflective of a general best estimate provision for returns and price adjustments based on the Company’s assessment of sell-through and slow moving inventory. This was partially countered by the addition of the premium brand Up which commands revenue of $6.80 per gram on dried flower. Theadult-use net revenue per gram equivalent decreased to $3.51 from $4.30 in the previous quarter reflecting the impact the provision above as well as the 971 kg of sales in Alberta which imposes on average a 16% higher exercise tax rate than Ontario and Quebec. In future periods as the sales mix shifts towards oil and other value-added products from lower valued dry flower products the impact of these excise taxes on revenue per gram is expected to decrease.

MEDICAL SALES

Gross medical revenue in the three months ended July 31, 2019 decreased 19% to $1,142 compared to $1,410 in the same period in fiscal 2018. Grams and gram equivalents sold decreased marginally to 137 kg from 152 kg in the fourth quarter of 2018. The relative stability in gram and gram equivalents sold with a corresponding decrease in sales is due to increased sales of oil products with sales prices, as well as the decrease to medical sales prices per gram incurred after legalization occurred in Q1 of the fiscal year. Compared to the prior quarter, the sequential revenue decreased by 14% from $1,323, reflecting lower total dried grams sales, offset by a marginal increase to oil based gram equivalents sold.

The Company realized $5,288 of gross medical sales during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 which is an increase of 7% from the $4,934 of gross medical sales during the comparative fiscal year 2018. This increase is due to 54 kg of additional gram and gram equivalents sold, offset by on average lower dried gram sales prices.

Net medical revenues decreased during the quarter by 12% to $957 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019, due to the reasons described above.

WHOLESALE SALES

New in the fiscal year are the introduction of wholesale revenues realized in the quarter. These sales pertain to transactions held between the Company and other licensed producers. The characteristics of such sales are generally large quantities at reduced prices per gram and gram equivalent. These sales are also free of excise taxes as this burden belongs to the acquirer and ultimately the seller of the cannabis products.

Wholesale revenues in the quarter contributed $378 to the Company’s net revenues. A total of 672 kg of dried cannabis was sold through the wholesale channel at an average net revenue per gram of $0.56. Prior to the provision for sales returns, the average contribution of wholesale revenue per gram was $4.36.

Cost of Sales, Excise Taxes and Fair Value Adjustments

Cost of goods sold includes the direct and indirect costs of materials and labour related to inventory sold, and includes harvesting, processing, packaging, shipping costs, depreciation and applicable stock-based compensation and direct and indirect overhead.

Fair value adjustment on sale of inventory includes the fair value of biological assets included in the value of inventory transferred to cost of sales.

Fair value of biological assets represents the increase or decrease in fair value of plants during the growing process less expected cost to complete and selling costs and includes certain management estimates.

Cost of sales for the quarter ended July 31, 2019 were $10,291, compared to $700 for the same quarter ended in fiscal 2018. The increase in cost of sales is the result of increased sales volumes due to the legalizedadult-use market not present in the comparative period. Also impacting the cost of sales were higher overhead allocated costs to inventory and increases to transformation costs were incurred as oil and other value-added products production mix has increased from the same quarter of fiscal 2018.

For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019, cost of sales increased to $26,197 from $2,093 from the comparable period of fiscal 2018 for the reasons as noted above.

The fair value adjustment on the sale of inventory for the fourth quarter ended July 31, 2019 was $7,285 compared to $455 for the same quarter ended July 31, 2018. This variance is due to increased sales volume of inventory sold when compared to the same quarter in fiscal year 2018. Which was offset by the introduction of theadult-use market which commands a lower fair value per gram when compared to the exclusively medical market-based sales in the three months ended July 31, 2018.

Fair value adjustment on biological assets for the current quarter was ($5,322) compared to ($1,171) for the same quarter ended in fiscal 2018. This variance is due to the increase in the total number of plants on hand as well as increased yields when compared to the comparative period. The increase in plants is due to the fully licensed 250,000 sq. ft. greenhouse which began harvests in Q1 of fiscal 2019 as well as the activation of the 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse during the second and third quarter of fiscal 2019. This results in significantly increased expected gram yields in the quarter and increased production costs of operating newlyin-use facilities. The increase in scale and total plants on hand is the result of meeting the demand of theadult-use market.

For the year ended, the fair value adjustments on the sale of inventory and biological assets increased to $16,357 and ($38,856) respectively from $2,289 and ($7,340) respectively in the comparative period of fiscal 2018 for those reasons as noted above.

The Company incurred an impairment loss on inventory of $19,335 during the three months ended July 31, 2019, due to price compression in the market. The impairment loss was realized on cannabis trim and milled inventory in fiscal 2019 to help meet the demands of theadult-use market in which the cost is now exceeding its net realizable value.

New in fiscal 2019 are excise taxes associated with the newadult-use revenues and medical sales incurred after October 17, 2018. These taxes totaled $5,122 an increase of 72% from the prior quarter which in part, is consistent with the increase to underlying gross revenues and gram and gram equivalents sold in the quarter. Further adding to the increase were the approximate $6,871 sales incurred in Alberta which drives on average 16% higher excise tax burden than Quebec and Ontario. Excise taxes are a function of fixed provincial and territorial rates based upon the gram equivalents sold as well as a variable ad valorem component which is dependent upon the selling price of the products.

24 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

General and administrative expenses increased to $22,950 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to $4,300 for the same period in fiscal 2018. This increase reflects the significant increase to the scale of our operations, including an increase in management, general, finance and administrative staff which lead to an increase of $3,149 to wages and payroll related expenses. Total professional and legal expenses increased by $7,557, as a result of merger and acquisition activity, additional corporate development initiatives and the increased financial reporting and control-based regulatory requirements accompanying public company status and listing on the TSX and NYSE. Increased insurance pertaining to commercial property and directors and officers increased in total by $3,577 due to increased property, plant and equipment balances and the listing on the NYSE, respectively.

Total general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $45,947 from $9,374 in the same period of fiscal 2018 due to the general growth of the operational scale of the corporation for the same reasons as outlined above.

MARKETING AND PROMOTION

Marketing and promotion expenses increased to $9,520 in the current quarter, compared to $3,807 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase reflects the expenses incurred from ouradult-use marketing and promotional events undertaken in the quarter as we build brand recognition and establish HEXO in theadult-use cannabis market. This is inclusive of higher staff and travel-related expenses, increases to printing and promotional materials, market research efforts as well as advertisement costs.

Total marketing and promotion expenses for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 significantly increased to $31,191 from $8,335 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018. This significant increase reflects the Company’s marketing and branding campaign which began in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 as we prepared for the launch of theadult-use brand HEXO into the legalized Canadian market.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (“R&D”)

The Company realized its first significant quarter of R&D expenses during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The increased R&D is correlated to the cannabis 2.0 edible cannabis market preparation, including vape formulas, confectionary prototypes and sensory testing. The Company also incurred expenses of $575 in market research and product studies. Additionally, expenses related to the establishment of the recently announced brand, Original Stash were realized.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation increased to $10,197 when compared to $1,933 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase is a function of the increased number of outstanding stock options which has a direct correlation to the increased headcount of the Company. Underlying market prices of those options granted subsequent the third quarter of fiscal 2018 were significantly higher, resulting in an increase to the expensed value on a per stock option basis during the period. On May 24, 2019, the Company added the unvested outstanding stock options of Newstrike to its outstanding balance. This contributed $981 of additional expenses in the period.

Total stock-based compensation for the year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $28,008 from $4,997 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018 for those reasons as outlined above.

DEPRECIATION OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Amortization of property, plant and equipment increased to $581 in the quarter, compared with $421 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase is due to the additions to office furniture, vehicles and other equipment in which the associated depreciation is not capitalized to inventory. These additions represent the Company’s general growth and increase to the scale of the operations.

Total depreciation of property, plant and equipment for the year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $1,747 from $896 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018 for those reasons as outlined above.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Amortization of intangible assets increased significantly to $1,407 in the quarter, compared with $252 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase is the result of amortization incurred on the identified $113,888 cultivation and license intangible asset acquired through the acquisition of Newstrike on May 24, 2019.

Total amortization of intangible assets for the year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $1,767 from $765 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018 for those reasons as outlined above.

Loss from Operations

Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was ($63,067), compared to ($10,194) for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increased operating expenses due to the expanding scale of operations of the Company and increased stock-based compensation expense due to higher cannabis market value. The Company also incurred increased R&D expenditures and an impairment loss on inventory. The higher expenses were offset by higher revenues and increased biological fair value adjustments as our production capacity continues to increase.

25 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Other Income/Expenses

Other income/(expense) was $125 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 compared to ($315) in the same period of fiscal 2018. Revaluation of financial instruments of $543 in the latest quarter reflects the revaluation of an embedded derivative related to USD denominated warrants issued in the prior year. During the period we earned $1,575 of interest and other income on our various highly liquid interest generating assets as well as the interest earning convertible debenture. Additionally, we incurred ($1,252) of unrealized of equity loss pickups on the ventures HEXO MED and Truss. The unrealized losses on the convertible debenture revaluation and other investments were ($124) and ($315), respectively. Interest expenses amounted to ($305) in the period.

Total other income/(expense) was ($847) for the year ended July 31, 2019 compared to ($5,383) of the same period of fiscal 2018. The decrease in expenses is primarily due to the Interest income of $5,187 due to increased cash holdings, convertible note interest and interest earned on a public security investment. The cumulative gain on convertible debenture amounted to $1,737 for the year ended. This was offset by the loss on revaluation of the USD denominated warrant liability of ($3,730) and the cumulative equity pick up losses from ventures of ($2,964).

Biological Assets – Fair Value Measurements

As at July 31, 2019, the changes in the carrying value of biological assets are as follows:

	July 31, 2019			July 31, 2018
Carrying amount, beginning of period	$	2,332		$	1,504
Acquired through acquisition		3,291
Production costs capitalized		19,215			993
Net increase in fair value due to biological transformation less cost to sell		38,856			7,340
Transferred to inventory upon harvest		(56,323	)		(7,505	)
Carrying amount, end of period	$	7,371		$	2,332

¹  Acquired through the Newstrike acquisition on May 24, 2019

Our biological assets consist of cannabis plants, from seeds all the way through to mature plants. As at July 31, 2019, the carrying amount of biological assets consisted of $2 in seeds and $7,369 in cannabis plants ($6 in seeds and $2,326 in cannabis plants as at July 31, 2018). The increase in the carrying amount of biological assets is attributable to an increase in production costs and offset by the market selling price decrease as a result of theadult-use market. The significant estimates used in determining the fair value of cannabis on plants are as follows:

• yield by plant;

• stage of growth estimated as the percentage of costs incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to the estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfillment costs) to arrive at anin-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; and

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

We view our biological assets as Level 3 fair value estimates and estimate the probability of certain harvest rates at various stages of growth. As at July 31, 2019, it is expected that our biological assets will yield approximately 17,571 kilograms (July 31, 2018 – 4,374 kilograms). Our estimates are, by their nature, subject to change. Changes in the anticipated yield will be reflected in future changes in the fair values of biological assets.

The valuation of biological assets is based on an income approach in which the fair value at the point of harvesting is estimated based on selling prices less the costs to sell. Forin-process biological assets, the fair value at point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth at period end. Stage of growth is determined by reference to the plant’s life relative to the cost incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfilment costs) to arrive at anin-process fair value for estimated biological assets, which have not yet been harvested.

26 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Management’s identified significant unobservable inputs, their range of values and sensitivity analysis for the period ended July 31, 2019 are presented in the table below:

Unobservable inputs	Input values	Sensitivity analysis
Average selling price Obtained through actual retail prices on a per strain basis	$4.23 – $5.01 per dried gram	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average selling price would result in a change of approximately $480 to the valuation.
Yield per plant Obtained through historical harvest cycle results on a per strain basis	15 – 123 grams per plant	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average yield per plant would result in a change up to approximately $344 in valuation.
Stage of growth Obtained through the estimates of stage of completion within the harvest cycle	Average of 29% completion	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average stage of growth per plant would result in a change of approximately $1,148 in valuation.
Wastage Obtained through the estimates of stage of wastage within the cultivation and production cycle	0%–30% dependent upon the stage within the harvest cycle	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the wastage expectation would result in a change of approximately $302 in valuation.

Quarterly Results

The following table presents certain unaudited financial information for each of the eight fiscal quarters up to and including the quarter ended July 31, 2019. The information has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements, which in management’s opinion have been prepared on a basis consistent with the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019. Past performance is not a guarantee of future performance, and this information is not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Loss per share – fully diluted		(0.05	)		(0.01	)		(0.10	)		(0.03	)

The Company’s net revenues have increased considerably during the current fiscal year when compared to the previous fiscal year. This is due to the legalization ofadult-use cannabis in Canada and the Company’s introduction into this market. As a result, the net loss in the three months ended July 31, 2019 increased primarily due to approximately $23 million in additional operating expenses as discussed in ‘Operating Expenses’ and the $19,335 impairment loss on inventory discussed in ‘Cost of Sales, Excise Taxes and Fair Market Value Adjustments’. The third quarter of fiscal 19 saw increased general, administrative and stock based compensation expenses due to the growth of scale in the Company’s operations. In the second quarter of fiscal 19 a stabilization in marketing/branding expenses occurred from the previous quarter thus reducing the net loss, offset by increased gross margin due to the Company’s first full quarter ofadult-use sales. The Company experienced a ramp up of expenses to prepare for the legalizedadult-use market primarily in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and quarter four of fiscal 2018 resulting in increased net losses. The four quarters of fiscal year 2018 ended July 31, 2018 pertain to the Company’s operations within the medical market only and included in the first quarter of fiscal 18 were tremendous scaling efforts to meet the coming demand of theadult-use market which was legalized October 17, 2018.

27 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Total Assets

Total assets increased to $878,623 as at July 31, 2019 from $334,998 as at July 31, 2018. The Company raised $53,791 in net proceeds from the January 30, 2019 marketed public offering. Property plant and equipment increased by $204,460 due to the construction of the 1 million sq. ft B9 facility, leasehold improvements to the Belleville Centre of Excellence and the associated required additional production equipment required within those facilities. The Company also acquired $46,003 of property, plant and equipment through the Newstrike acquisition. Also due to the aforementioned addition production facilities, there has been a significant increase in scale of operations. Inventory and biological assets increased $73,439 and $5,039, respectively. New in the fiscal year, also contributing to the variance is the addition of the investment in associate Truss and joint venture HEXO MED which increased total assets by $52,849. Intangible assets increased by $123,237 primarily due to the acquisition of the Newstrike Up brand and cultivation licenses. Also generated through the acquisition of Newstrike was goodwill of $111,877.

Total Liabilities

Total liabilities increased to $89,911 as at July 31, 2019 from $12,125 as at July 31, 2018. During the current fiscal year, the Company entered into a term loan with CIBC which contributed $33,374 in net outstanding debt as at July 31, 2019. An increase in trade accounts payable and accruals of $36,585 due to continued growth in operations and scalability, specifically the retrofitting and leasehold improvement activity underway at the Centre of Excellence in Belleville, Ontario. There exists $3,494 of excise taxes payable due to the onset of the new taxation policy instituted at the legalization date October 17, 2018.

Share Capital

Share capital increased to $799,706 as at July 31, 2019 from $347,233 at July 31, 2018, due to the marketed equity financing which contributed $53,791 in net proceeds to share capital. The acquisition of Newstrike added an additional $322,439 and the remaining balance of the increase was realized from the exercising of warrants, broker warrants and stock options during the fiscal year.

Share-Based Payment Reserve

The share-based payment reserve increased to $40,315 as at year end from $6,139 as at July 31, 2018. This increase is due to a full fiscal year of stock-based compensation resulting in an increase of $11,768, as a result from the 5.7 million issued employee stock options in July 2018. A total of 12,693,118 employee stock options were granted during the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, inclusive of 3,668,785 which were granted during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The acquisition of Newstrike on May 24, 2019 increased the share-based payment reserve by $7,134.

Warrants Reserve

The warrant reserve increased significantly to $60,433 as at July 31, 2019 from $12,635 as at July 31, 2018, primarily due to the $42,386 addition of the fair valued Molson warrants reserve established for the 11,500,000 share purchase warrants issued to an affiliate of Molson Coors Canada as consideration in the Truss venture in early October 2018. The warrants possess a strike price of $6.00 and a term of 3 years. This is offset by warrant exercise activity during the three quarters to date of fiscal 2019. The acquisition of Newstrike on May 24, 2019 increased the warrants reserve by $12,229.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our objectives when managing our liquidity and capital structure are to maintain sufficient cash to fund international growth initiatives, innovation strategies and to meet contractual obligations. Our ability to reach profitability is dependent on successful implementation of our business strategy. While management is confident in the future success of the business, there can be no assurance that our products will gain adequate market penetration or acceptance or generate sufficient revenue to reach profitability.

28 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the twelve months ended July 31, 2019 was $124,706 as a result of the total net loss for the period ended of $69,608, and a decrease innon-cash working capital of $71,767, as well as netnon-cash expenses of $16,669. In the same prior year period, cash used in operating activities was ($22,185), reflecting the net loss of ($23,350), netnon-cash expenses add back of $8,378, and a decrease in working capital of ($7,213). The change in cash flow reflects ($38,856) of an unrealized change in the fair value of biological assets. Increases to inventory and biological assets of ($53,640) and an increase to trade receivables of ($17,845). These increases to operating cashflows were offset by the stock-based compensation add back of $28,944. Operating activities reflect the general increased size and scale of the Company’s operations when compared to the same fiscal period of the fiscal year 2018, as well as the additional operations obtained through the acquisition of Newstrike.

Financing Activities

Net cash received from financing activities for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 was $146,877. On January 30, 2019, the Company closed the marketed equity financing in which a total of 8,855,000 common shares were issued for net proceeds of $53,731. The additional cash generated from the exercised warrants in the amount of $56,075 and exercised stock options of $4,293 incurred during the period. The warrant activity was significantly higher in the fourth quarter due to all time high market prices. The Company’s term loan forming part of its syndicated credit facility contributed net $32,778.

Investing Activities

For the twelve months ended July 31, 2019, $7,645 was used for investing activities. The Company gained net cash of $49,366 through its business acquisition. Contributing to the increase is cash was the transfer of short-term investments of $119,810 and its reinvestment into high interest generating vehicles. This is offset by the cash consideration and capitalized transaction costs of ($13,427) of the investment in associate and joint ventures. During the period, we continued additions of ($138,034) to our property, plant and equipment as scalability increases as the new 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse was completed and significant leasehold improvements continue to be made at the Belleville facility. Cash in the amount of ($22,350) was restricted for the purposes of satisfying supply and debt service agreements or held in escrow.

Capital Resources

As at July 31, 2019, working capital totaled $261,868. The exercise of all the issued and outstanding warrants, as at July 31, 2019, would result in an increase in cash of approximately $225,394, and the exercise of all stock options would increase cash by approximately $142,491. During the quarter, the Company realized an increase in cash of $39,932 due to the exercise of 7,130,782 January 2018 warrants which contribute $5.60 per warrant. An additional $3,386 was generated due to the exercise of 2,122,689 options during the quarter end.

On October 23, 2019, the Company announced it has entered into subscription agreements with a group of investors pursuant to which the investors have agreed to purchase, on a private placement basis, $70 million principal amount of 8.0% unsecured debentures of the Company (the “Debentures”).

The Debentures will bear interest from the date of closing at 8.0% per annum payable quarterly and will mature on the date which is three years from issuance. Following the date, which is one year from issuance, the Debentures will be convertible at the option of the holder into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price of $3.16 per share, subject to adjustment in certain events.

Beginning on the date which is one year from issuance, the Company may force the conversion of all of the principal amount of the then outstanding Debentures at the Conversion Price on not less than 30 days’ notice should the daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company be greater than $7.50 for any 15 consecutive trading days.

The Debentures and any common shares of the Company issuable upon conversion thereof will be subject to a statutory hold period lasting four months and one day following the closing date.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the private placement for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Closing of the Offering is occurred on or about December 5, 2019. The private placement is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including the approvals of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.

On February 15, 2019, the Company entered into a syndicated credit facility with Canadian chartered banks for a total of $65,000. This access to capital will provide the Company with additional capital to fund future growth and expansion as well as its strategic initiates without the dilution of current and future shareholders.

On January 30, 2019, the Company closed the marketed public offering which generated gross proceeds of $57,500 for the issuance of 8,855,000 common shares at a price of $6.50 per share. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund general corporate operations, global growth initiatives and research and development activity to further advance the Company’s innovation strategies.

29 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company sits on a consolidated cash position of approximately $64,000, exclusive of the expected cash from the debentures of the recently announced private placement. The primary cash burn activities since the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 relate to capital expenditures, capital contributions to our joint arrangement partners and standard operating activities such as payroll.

Management believes that current working capital along with the recently completed financings, sufficiently provides the level of funding required for current expansion projects and meet contractual obligations for the next 12 months. We periodically evaluate the opportunity to raise additional funds through the public or private placement of equity capital to strengthen our financial position and to provide sufficient cash reserves for growth and development of the business.

Our authorized share capital is comprised of an unlimited number of common shares. The table below outlines the number of issued and outstanding common shares, warrants and options as at July 31, 2018, July 31, 2019 and December 31, 2019.

	December 31, 2019		July 31, 2019		July 31, 2018

30 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Financial Risk Management

We are exposed to risks of varying degrees of significance which could affect our ability to achieve our strategic objectives for growth. The main objectives of our risk management process are to ensure that risks are properly identified and that the capital base is adequate in relation to these risks. The principal financial risks to which we are exposed are described below.

Interest Risk

The Company has exposure to interest rate risk related to any investments of surplus cash. The Company may invest surplus cash in highly liquid investments with short terms to maturity that would accumulate interest at prevailing rates for such investments. The Company also has exposure to interest rate risk related to the outstanding balance of the term loan. The fluctuation of the interest rate may result in a material increase to the associated interest. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had short term investments and a convertible debenture of $517 and a long term loan of $33,374. All interest rates are fixed. An increase or decrease of 5% to the applicable interest rates would not result in a material variance.

Price Risk

Price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity or market prices. The Company’s 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 are based on quoted market prices which the shares of the investments can be exchanged for.

If the fair value of these financial assets were to increase or decrease by 10% as of July 31, 2019, the Company would incur an associated increase or decrease in comprehensive loss of approximately $188 (2018 - $Nil). The price risk exposure as at July 31, 2019 is presented in the table below.

	$
Financial assets		16,756
Financial liabilities		(493	)
Total exposure		16,263

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, promissory note receivable and convertible debenture receivable. As at July 31, 2019, the Company was exposed to credit related losses in the event ofnon-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, the Company has limited credit risk.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are held by some of the largest cooperative financial groups in Canada. Since the inception of the Company, no losses have been incurred in relation to cash held by the financial institution. The majority of the trade receivables balance are held with crown corporations of Quebec, Ontario and Alberta as well as one of the largest medical insurance companies in Canada. Credit worthiness 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 year ended July 31, 2019 is $37 (July 31, 2018 - $94).

In measuring the expected credit losses, theadult-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 possess share 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, short-term investments, trade receivables and convertible debentures receivable represents the maximum exposure to credit risk and as at July 31, 2019; this amounted to $194,902.

31 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

The following table summarizes the Company’s aging of receivables as at July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018:

	July 31, 2019		July 31, 2018
	$		$
0–30 days
0–30 days		14,102		262
31–60 days		1,826		188
61–90 days		166		91
Over 90 days		3,599		103
Total		19,693		644

Economic Dependence Risk

Economic dependence risk is the risk of reliance upon a select number of customers which significantly impact the financial performance of the Company. The Company recorded sales from three crown corporations representing 81% (July 31, 2018 – Nil%) of total sales in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019.

The Company holds trade receivables from three crown corporations representing 79% of total trade receivables as of July 31, 2019 (July 31, 2018 – Nil%).

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by reviewing on an ongoing basis its capital requirements. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had $139,505 of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

The Company is obligated to pay accounts payable and accrued liabilities, excise taxes payable and current portions of the term loan and other liabilities with total carrying amounts and contractual cash flows amounting to $52,685 due in the next 12 months.

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

Critical Accounting Assumptions

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management makes estimates and assumptions and uses judgment in applying these accounting policies and reporting the amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements relate to the valuation of biological assets and inventory, stock-based compensation, warrants, the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting assumptions are presented in Note 3 of the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019, which is available under HEXO’s profile on SEDAR and EDGAR.

Adopted and Upcoming Changes in Accounting Standards

IFRS 15,Revenues from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 was issued by the IASB in May 2014 and specifies how and when revenue should be recognized based on a five-step model, which is applied to all contracts with customers. On April 12, 2016, the IASB published final clarifications to IFRS 15 with respect to identifying performance obligations, principal versus agent considerations, and licensing.

The Company has applied IFRS 15 retrospectively and determined that there is no change to the comparative period or transitional adjustments required as a result of the adoption. The Company’s accounting policy for revenue recognition under IFRS 15 is as follows:

1. Identifying the contract with a customer;

2. Identifying the performance obligation(s) in the contract;

3. Determining the transaction price;

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and

5. Recognizing revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).

Revenue from the direct sale of cannabis to customers for a fixed price is recognized when the Company transfers the control of the good(s) to the customer upon delivery and acceptance by the customer, the timing of which is consistent with the Company’s previous revenue recognition policy under IAS 18.

IFRS 9,Financial Instruments

The Company adopted IFRS 9 retroactively and determined that there is no change to the comparative period or transitional adjustments required as a result of the adoption.

IFRS 9 was issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) in November 2009 and October 2010 and will replace IAS 39. IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is classified and measured at amortized cost or at fair value. The classification and measurement of financial assets is based on the Company’s business models for managing its financial assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”). Financial assets under IFRS 9 are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at either amortized cost; fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) or; fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL��).

32 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

AMORTIZED COST

Financial assets classified and measured at amortized cost are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI. Financial assets classified at amortized cost are measured using the effective interest method.

FVTOCI

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTOCI are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI.

This classification includes certain equity instruments where IFRS 9 allows an entity to make an irrevocable election to classify the equity instruments, on aninstrument-by-instrument basis, that would otherwise be measured at FVTPL to present subsequent changes in FVTOCI.

FVTPL

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTPL are those assets that do not meet the criteria to be classified at amortized cost or at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (“FVTOCI”). This category includes debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics are not SPPI or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell the financial asset.

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments under IAS 39 and IFRS 9:

	IAS 39 Classification	IFRS 9 Classification
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents	FVTPL	FVTPL
Restricted cash	FVTPL	FVTPL
Short-term investments	FVTPL	FVTPL
Trade receivables	Loans and receivables	Amortized cost
Convertible debenture receivable	FVTPL	FVTPL
Long term investment	N/A	FVTPL
Financial liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	Other financial liabilities	Amortized cost
Warrant liability	FVTPL	FVTPL
Deferred rent liability	N/A	Amortized cost
Term loan	N/A	Amortized cost

The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have a material impact to the Company’s classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities.

IFRS 9 uses an expected credit loss impairment model as opposed to an incurred credit loss model under IAS 39. The impairment model is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost where any expected future credit losses are provided for, irrespective of whether a loss event has occurred as at the reporting date. For trade receivables, the Company has measured the expected credit losses based on lifetime expected credit losses taking into consideration historical credit loss experience and financial factors specific to the debtors and other factors. The carrying amount of trade receivables is reduced for any expected credit losses through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. At the point when the Company is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible, the amount is considered not recoverable and the financial asset is written off. The adoption of the new expected credit loss impairment model had a negligible impact on the carrying amounts of financial assets at amortized cost.

CLASSIFICATION AND MEASUREMENT OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

Accounting for financial liabilities remains largely the same under IFRS 9 and subsequently the Company’s liabilities were not significantly impacted by the adoption.

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Company designates a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments).

33 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

IFRS 16,Leases

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 Leases, which will replace IAS 17 Leases. This standard introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term greater than twelve months, unless the underlying asset’s value is insignificant. A lessee is required to recognize aright-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. Lessors will continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with lessor accounting remaining substantially unchanged from the preceding guidance under IAS 17, Leases.

The Company is currently executing its implementation plan and has completed the initial scoping phase to identify material lease contracts. The analysis of such contracts to quantify the transitional impact is ongoing. The most significant impact of IFRS 16 will be our initial recognition of the present value of future lease payments asright-of-use assets under property, plant and equipment and the corresponding recognition of a lease liability on the consolidated statement of financial position. All material, long-term property leases, which are currently treated as operating leases, are expected to be impacted by the new standard which will result in lower rent expense, higher depreciation expense and higher finance costs related to accretion and interest expense of the lease liability.

IFRS 16 will also impact the presentation of the consolidated statement of cash flows by decreasing operating cash flows and increasing financing cash flows. The standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year commencing August 1, 2019. The Company will be adopting the standard using the modified approach by recognizing the cumulative impact of initial adoption in opening retained earnings (i.e. the difference between theright-of-use asset and the lease liability). The Company will measure theright-of-use asset at an amount equal to the lease liability on the commencement date, apply a single discount rate to leases with similar remaining lease terms for similar classes of underlying assets and will not separatenon-lease components from lease components for certain classes of underlying assets. Consistent with the guidance, the Company will not apply this standard to short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value.

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

In accordance with National Instrument52-109Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings(“NI52-109”),the establishment and maintenance of Disclosure Controls and Procedures (“DCP”) and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”) is the responsibility of management. The DCP and ICFR have been designed by management based on the 2013 Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) to provide reasonable assurance that the Company’s financial reporting is reliable and that its financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Regardless of how well the DCP and ICFR are designed, internal controls have inherent limitations and can only provide reasonable assurance that the controls are meeting the Company’s objectives in providing reliable financial reporting information in accordance with IFRS. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, human error and circumvention of controls and as such, there can be no assurance that the controls will prevent or detect all misstatements due to errors or fraud, if any.

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be publicly disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. An evaluation of the design of Disclosure Controls was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon this evaluation, the material changes to the control environment and the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as at July 31, 2019, are set forth below.

Business Acquisition

On May 24, 2019, the Company finalized the acquisition of Newstrike. Under NI52-109, the Company is permitted to limit the scope of its design of DCP and ICFR for a business that was acquired not more than 365 days before the end of the financial period to which the certificate relates. Therefore, the Company will continue to assess the design of controls, evaluate the controls and work to implement the established control structure within the operations of Newstrike and certify such once in a position to do so.

The above acquisition contributed net revenue of $2,770 and a net loss of ($13,699) to the Company’s consolidated results for the fiscal year ended since the date of acquisition.

Material Changes to the Control Environment

During the period the Company continued to embark on a transformation project, enabled by a new end to end Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system. When completed, the project will provide an integrated system for inventory tracking and valuation from seed to sale. The project was launched in November 2017 to standardize and automate business processes and controls across the organization. As at July 31, 2019, the system’s Finance, Sales and Procurement processes were functional. It will continue to be rolled out for inventory tracking and processing throughout the fiscal year. The project is a major initiative that is utilizing third party consultants, and a solution designed specifically for the cannabis industry. The new ERP is intended to facilitate improved reporting and oversight and enhance internal controls over financial reporting.

Also, during the period were changes made to the Company’s inventory count process, procedures and estimate approach. Due to the significant increase in volume as the Company’s production levels rise, there were additional complexities added to this process. Additional resources were required to complete the inventory count including the reallocation of personnel from other departments and the use of third-party services. This inherently creates an increased risk environment in that less experienced personnel were involved in the process.    

35 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Identified Material Weaknesses and Remediation Plan

A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls.

Management has performed a detailed risk assessment to identify key account and business processes and related controls, which was informed by process flow mapping with key control owners.

As of the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019, management has identified the following material weaknesses in the Company’s

internal control over financial reporting and implemented the associated remediation activity as outlined below.

COMPLEX SPREADSHEET CONTROLS

Management concluded that the Company did not implement and maintain effective controls surrounding complex spreadsheets. Spreadsheets are inherently prone to error due to the manual nature and increased risk of human error. The Company’s controls related to complex spreadsheets did not address all identified material risks associated with manual data entry, documentation and review of assumptions, processes and estimate methodology, completeness of data entry, and the accuracy of formulas.

The Company has engaged a third party to aid in the identification, assessment and remediation over the design and implementation effectiveness of complex spreadsheet internal controls over financial reporting. The Company intends to move towards an ERP which possesses specific functionality to remove the manual nature and usage of complex spreadsheets in future periods.

IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ERP

The Company did not have effective information technology (IT) general controls over all operating systems, databases, and IT applications supporting financial reports. Accordingly, process-level automated controls and manual controls that were dependent upon the information derived from IT systems were also determined to be ineffective.

The Company has engaged a third party to aid in the identification, assessment and remediation over the design and implementation effectiveness of IT related internal controls over financial reporting. The Company intends to fully implement the ERP during fiscal 2020 and will only take reliance upon such controls once the appropriate level of testing is reached.

INVENTORY COUNT

The Company did not have effective controls around itsyear-end inventory count procedures, specifically with respect to its reconciliation of the ERP system, due to the details outlined in the previous change to control environment section.

To further strengthen controls surrounding inventory, management has initiated or enhanced the following procedures;

• Segregation of duties to initiate work, production orders and inventory adjustments will be strengthened;

• Work, production orders and inventory adjustments will be reviewed and approved by the relevant supervisor;

• Further enhancements to the ERP inventory processing, tracking and reporting functionality and supporting work procedures in order to ensure their sustainability;

• Additional training, guidance and communications to internal teams and third-party inventory count providers regarding inventory management, count and reconciliation procedures.

PROCUREMENT

The Company did not maintain effective controls over the purchasing of capital goods and services, including the authorization of purchases, processing and payment of vendor invoices, the classification of various expenses and capitalization of assets.

To strengthen the controls surrounding the procurement process, management has initiated or enhanced the following procedures;

• Enhancements to the ERP’s purchasing functionality; including segregation of duties to initiate and release purchase orders;

• Additional training, guidance and communications to internal teams regarding the Company’s procurement policies and required adherence to the Governance Authority Matrix.

FINANCIAL REPORTING

The Company did not maintain effective process level and management review controls over manual financial reporting processes and the application of IFRS and accounting measurements related to certain significant accounts andnon-routine transactions.

To strengthen the controls surrounding the financial reporting process, management has initiated the following;

• Assessing the financial and accounting resources in order to identify the areas and functions that lack sufficient personnel and other resources.

36 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

• Hiring additional personnel, to be dedicated to the implementation, maintenance and monitoring of disclosure and financial controls, including our current efforts to recruit a Director of Finance; and,

• Engaging third-party advisors with appropriate expertise to assist in the application of complex accounting measurements andnon-routine transactions.

Risk Factors

Our overall performance and results of operations are subject to various risks and uncertainties which could cause actual performance, results and achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements and forward-looking information, including, without limitation, the following factors, some of which, as well as other factors, are discussed in our Annual Information Form dated October 28, 2019 available under our profile on www.sedar.com, which risk factors should be reviewed in detail by all readers:

• Our business operations are dependent on our licence under the Cannabis Regulations. The license must be renewed by Health Canada. Our current license expires on April 15, 2021. Failure to comply with the requirements of the license or any failure to renew the license would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating results.

• Achievement of our business objectives is contingent, in part, upon compliance with regulatory requirements enacted by these governmental authorities and obtaining all regulatory approvals, where necessary, for the production and sale of our products. We cannot predict the time required to secure all appropriate regulatory approvals for our products, or the extent of testing and documentation that may be required by governmental authorities.

• While to the knowledge of our management, the Company is currently in compliance with all laws, regulations and guidelines relating to the marketing, acquisition, manufacture, management, transportation, storage, sale and disposal of cannabis as well as including laws and regulations relating to health and safety, the conduct of operations and the protection of the environment, changes to such laws, regulations and guidelines due to matters beyond our control may cause adverse effects to our operations.

• We operate in a dynamic, rapidly changing environment that involves risks and uncertainties, and as a result, management expectations may not be realized for a number of reasons.

• Reliance on management’s and key persons’ ability to execute on strategy. This exposes us to management’s ability to perform, as well as the risk of management leaving the Company.

• We face intense competition from licensed producers and other companies, some of which may have greater financial resources and more industry, manufacturing and marketing experience than we do.

• The number of licenses granted, and the number of licensed producers ultimately authorized by Health Canada could have an impact on our operations. We expect to face additional competition from new market entrants that are granted licences under the Cannabis Regulations or existing license holders which are not yet active in the industry.

• We may be subject to growth-related risks including capacity constraints and pressure on our internal systems and controls. Our ability to manage growth effectively will require it to continue to implement and improve our operational and financial systems and to expand, train and manage our employee base.

• Given the nature of our business, we may from time to time be subject to claims or complaints from investors or others in the normal course of business which could adversely affect the public’s perception of the Company.

• We may become party to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business which could adversely affect our business.

• Failure to adhere to laws and regulations may result in possible sanctions including the revocation or imposition of conditions on licenses to operate our business; the suspension or expulsion from a particular market or jurisdiction or of our key personnel; and the imposition of fines and censures.

• International operations will result in increased operational, regulatory and other risks.

• There may be a risk of corruption and fraud in the emerging markets in which the Company operates.

• The Company’s operations in emerging markets international markets may pose an increased inflation risk on the business.

• The development of our business and operating results may be hindered by applicable restrictions on sales and marketing activities imposed by Health Canada.

• Our activities and resources are currently primarily focused on our facilities on the Gatineau, Belleville and Newstrike campuses, and we will continue to be focused on this facility for the foreseeable future. Adverse changes or developments affecting the Gatineau campus would have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.

• We expect to derive a significant portion of our future revenues from the legalizedadult-use cannabis industry and recently legalized edible cannabis 2.0 market in Canada, including through our agreements various provincial governing bodies do not contain purchase commitments or otherwise obligate the purchaser to buy a minimum or fixed volume of products from HEXO.

37 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

• We expect to derive a significant portion of our future revenues from the sale of future products of which are still being actively developed and put into production. Failure to adequately meet market demand for edible product in a timely fashion may adversely impact the Company’s profitability.

• We have incurred operating losses since commencing operations and may incur losses in the future and may not achieve profitability.

• Our growth strategy contemplates outfitting the Company’s multiple facilities with additional production resources. There is a risk that these additional resources will not be completed on time, on budget, or at all.

• A key aspect of our business is growing cannabis, and as such we are exposed to the risks inherent in any agriculture business, such as disease spread, hazards, pests and similar agricultural risks that may create crop failures and supply interruptions for our customers.

• Our cannabis growing operations consume considerable energy, making us vulnerable to rising energy costs. Volatility of energy costs and the loss of preferred rate status may adversely impact our business and our ability to operate profitably.

• We believe the cannabis industry is highly dependent upon consumer perception regarding the safety, efficacy and quality of the cannabis produced. Consumer perception of our products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention and other publicity regarding the consumption of cannabis products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings or publicity will be favourable to the cannabis market or any particular product, or consistent with earlier publicity.

• As a manufacturer and distributor of products designed to be ingested or inhaled by humans, we face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if our products are alleged to have caused significant loss or injury. In addition, the manufacture and sale of our products involve the risk of injury or loss to consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties, product contamination, unauthorized use by consumers or other third parties.

• Manufacturers and distributors of products are sometimes subject to the recall or return of their products for a variety of reasons, including product defects, such as contamination, unintended harmful side effects or interactions with other substances, packaging safety and inadequate or inaccurate labelling disclosure.

• Our business is dependent on a number of key inputs and their related costs including raw materials and supplies related to our growing operations, as well as electricity, water and other local utilities. Any significant interruption or negative change in the availability or economics of the supply chain for key inputs could materially impact our business, financial condition and operating results.

• We must rely largely on our own market research to forecast sales as detailed forecasts are not generally obtainable from other sources at this early stage of the medical marijuana industry in Canada.

• Conflicts of interest may arise between the Company and its directors.

• We may not pay any dividends on our common shares in the foreseeable future.

• Our common shares are listed on the TSX and NYSE; however, there can be no assurance that an active and liquid market for the common shares will be maintained, and an investor may find it difficult to resell such shares.

• There is no assurance the Company will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX and the NYSE.

• The Company is subject to restrictions from the TSX and NYSE which may constrain the Company’s ability to expand its business internationally.

• The market price for our common shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, including governmental and regulatory regimes, community support for the cannabis industry, variations in our operating results, changes in our business prospects, as well as many other factors that are beyond our control.

• An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and uncertainty.

• We may issue additional common shares in the future, which may dilute a shareholder’s holdings in the Company.

• The Company may not be successful in the integration of the acquired Company into our business.

• The Company may be unable to successfully achieve the objectives of our strategic alliances.

• The Company’s operations are subject to increased risk as a result of international expansion.

• We maintain various types of insurance such as, but not limited to, errors and omissions insurance; directors’ and officers’ insurance; property coverage; and general commercial insurance, recall insurance, cyber security insurance, warehouseman insurance and cargo insurance. A judgment against any member of the Company in excess of available coverage could have a material adverse effect on us in terms of damages awarded and the impact on our reputation.

38 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

• Based upon the nature of the Company’s current business activities, the Company does not believe it is currently an “investment company” (“IC”) under the United States (“U.S.”) Investment Company Act of 1940. However, the tests for determining IC status are based upon the composition of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates from time to time, and it is difficult to make accurate predictions of future assets. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will not become an IC in the future. A corporation generally will be considered an IC if; more than 40% of the value of its total assets excluding cash and U.S. government securities are comprised of investment securities, which generally include any securities of an entity the corporation does not control. If the Company were to become an IC, it would not be able to conduct public offerings of securities in the U.S.

• Our operations are subject to environmental and safety laws and regulations concerning, among other things, emissions and discharges to water, air and land, the handling and disposal of hazardous andnon-hazardous materials and wastes, and employee health and safety. We will incur ongoing costs and obligations related to compliance with environmental and employee health and safety matters. Failure to comply with environmental and safety laws and regulations may result in additional costs for corrective measures, in penalties or in restrictions on our manufacturing operations.

• In the fiscal year 2018, the Company initiated the implementation of new ERP systems. The implementation is expected to be completed in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2020. Upon full commencement of the implementation, the scoping, requirements definition, business process definition, design and testing of the integrated ERP system could result in problems which could, in turn, result in disruption, delays and errors to the operations and processes within the business and/or inaccurate information for management and financial reporting.

• We are exposed to the risk that our employees, independent contractors and consultants may engage in fraudulent or other illegal activity. Misconduct by these parties could include intentional, reckless and/or negligent conduct or disclosure of unauthorized activities to the Company that violates: (i) government regulations; (ii) manufacturing standards; (iii) federal and provincial healthcare fraud and abuse laws and regulations; or (iv) laws that require the true, complete and accurate reporting of financial information or data.

• The Company is subject to continuous evolving corporate governance, internal controls and disclosure regulations that may increase the risk ofnon-compliance, which could adversely impact the Company, its market perception and valuation.

• With the recently acquired credit facility, which could include risks that the Company’s cash flows could be insufficient to satisfy required payments of principal and interest, exposure of the Company to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of the Company’s borrowings would likely be at variable rates of interest, and enforcement risk in the event of default.

• The credit facility contains covenants that will require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. If the Company does not maintain such ratios, it could have consequences for the availability of credit under the credit facility or result in repayment requirements that the Company may not be able to satisfy.

39 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Notice to Reader

The annual financial statements of HEXO Corp. (“the Company”) for the years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018 are being amended and refiled to adjust for deferred income taxes and write-down of inventories for the year ended July 31, 2019 as further described in Note 34. Except as described in Note 34, there has been no other material changes to the financial statements as originally filed by the Company on October 28, 2019.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Shareholders of HEXO Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the amended and restated consolidated financial statements of HEXO Corp. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the amended and restated consolidated statements of financial position as at July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018, and the amended and restated consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the amended and restated consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying amended and restated consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the amended and restated consolidated financial position of the Company as at July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018, and its amended and restated consolidated financial performance and its amended and restated consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Amended and Restated Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audits of the amended and restated consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter – Restated Comparative Information

We draw attention to Note 34 of the amended and restated consolidated financial statements, which describes that the consolidated financial statements that we originally reported on October 28, 2019 have been amended and restated and describes the matters that gave rise to the amendments of the amended and restated consolidated financial statements. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises:

• Management’s Discussion and Analysis

• The information, other than the amended and restated consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, in the Annual Report

• The information, other than the amended and restated consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, in the Annual Report on Form40-F.

Our opinion on the amended and restated consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audits of the amended and restated consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the amended and restated consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audits or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis, the Annual Report, and the Annual Report on Form40-F prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Amended and Restated Consolidated Financial Statements

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

In preparing the amended and restated consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Amended and Restated Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the amended and restated consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these amended and restated consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the amended and restated consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the amended and restated consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the amended and restated consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the amended and restated consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the amended and restated consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audits and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audits.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

Notes to the Amended and Restated Consolidated Financial Statements

For the fiscal years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018

(Audited, expressed in CAD and in $000’s except share amounts or where otherwise stated)

1. Description of Business

HEXO Corp. (formerly The Hydropothecary Corporation) (the “Company”), is a publicly traded corporation, incorporated in Canada. HEXO is a producer of cannabis and its sites are licensed by Health Canada for production and sale. Its head office is located at240-490 Boulevard Saint-Joseph, Gatineau, Quebec, 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”.

Shareholder approval of the Company’s name change to HEXO Corp. formerly The Hydropothecary Corporation occurred August 28, 2018.

2. Basis of Presentation

Statement of Compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”).

These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on October 23, 2019.

Basis of Measurement and Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an historical cost basis except for cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short term investments, biological assets, convertible debentures receivable, long term investments, and the warrant liability, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and include the accounts of the Company and entities controlled by the Company and its subsidiaries.

Historical cost is the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services based upon the fair value at the time of the transaction of the consideration provided.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, regardless of whether that price is directly observable or estimated using another valuation technique. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Fair value for measurement and/or disclosure purposes in these consolidated financial statements is determined on such a basis, except for share-based payment transactions that are within the scope of IFRS 2,Share-based paymentand measurements that have some similarities to fair value but are not fair value, such as net realizable value in IAS 2,Inventories.

In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorized into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:

Level 1—inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;

Level 2—inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3—inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

(a) INVESTMENT IN ASSOCIATES AND JOINT VENTURES

When determining the appropriate basis of accounting for the Company’s interests in affiliates, the Company makes judgments about the degree of influence that it exerts directly or through an arrangement over the investees’ relevant activities.

Judgment was used to determine whether the joint venture arrangements described in Note 19 should be accounted for as a joint operation or a joint venture. Given the Company has rights to the net assets of the separate legal entities, the Company has concluded they will be accounted for as joint ventures. The Company will recognize the initial investment at cost and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the Company’s share of the profit or loss of the venture after the date of acquisition.

(b) FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.

5

(c) BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly and indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity and be exposed to the variable returns from its activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

MAJOR SUBSIDIARIES	JURISDICTION	INTEREST HELD
HEXO Operations Inc.1	Ontario, Canada		100	%
Newstrike Brands Ltd.2	Ontario, Canada		100	%
HEXO USA Inc.	Deleware, USA		100	%
Keystone Isolation Technologies Inc. (“KIT’’)	Ontario, Canada		60	%

¹ Holds 100% interest in 8980268 Canada Inc., a company for which it holds a right to acquire the outstanding shares at any time for a nominal amount.

²  Holds one wholly-owned subsidiary 1977121 Ontario Inc., which wholly-owns the subsidiary Up Cannabis Inc. and holds a 60% interest in the joint venture Neal Up Brands Inc.

3. Significant Accounting Policies, Accounting Standards and Interpretations

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the consolidated statement of financial position date are translated to Canadian dollars at the foreign exchange rate applicable at that date. Realized and unrealized exchange gains and losses are recognized through profit or loss.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash and highly liquid investments that are readily convertibles into known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less.

SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS

Short term investments are comprised of liquid investments with maturities between 3 and 12 months. Short term investments are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value through profit or loss.

BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

The Company measures biological assets consisting of cannabis plants using the income approach at fair value less costs to sell up to the point of harvest, which becomes the basis for the cost of finished goods inventories after harvest. The Company capitalizes all the direct and indirect costs as incurred related to the biological transformation of the biological assets between the point of initial recognition and the point of harvest including labour related costs, grow consumables, materials, utilities, facilities costs, depreciation, overhead, stock-based compensation of applicable employees, quality and testing costs. The identified capitalized direct and indirect costs of biological assets are subsequently recorded within the line item ‘costs of goods sold’ on the statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period that the related product is sold. Seeds are measured at fair value. Unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in fair value less cost to sell during the period are included in the results of operations and presented on a separate line of statement of comprehensive loss of the related period.

INVENTORY

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Inventories of harvested cannabis are transferred from biological assets at their fair value at harvest, which becomes the initial deemed cost of the inventory. Any subsequent post-harvest costs are capitalized to inventory to the extent that cost is less than net realizable value. Subsequent costs include materials, overhead, amortization, stock-based compensation of applicable employees and labour involved in packaging and quality assurance. The identified capitalized direct and indirect costs related to inventory are subsequently recorded within ‘cost of goods sold’ on the statement of loss and comprehensive loss at the time the product is sold, with the exclusion of realized fair value amounts included in inventory sold which are recorded as a separate line within gross margin. 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. Packaging and supplies are initially valued at cost and subsequently at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

6

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Amortization is provided using the following terms and method:

Land	Not amortized	No term
Buildings	Straight line	5 to 20 years
Leasehold improvements	Straight line	lease term
Furniture and equipment	Straight line	5 years
Cultivation and production equipment	Straight line	5 to 20 years
Vehicles	Straight line	5 years
Computers	Straight line	3 years
Construction in progress	Not amortized	No term

An asset’s residual value, useful life and amortization method are reviewed at each financial year and adjusted if appropriate. When parts of an item of equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the equipment and are recognized in profit or loss.

Construction in progress is transferred to property, plant and equipment when the assets are available for use and amortization of the assets commences at that point.

FINITE LIFE INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Finite life intangible assets are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over the following terms:

Domain names	Straight line	10 years
Health Canada licenses	Straight line	20 years
Software	Straight line	3 to 5 years
Patents	Straight line	20 years

The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

INDEFINITE INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Indefinite intangible assets are deemed to have no foreseeable limit over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. Following initial recognition, intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. The Company intends to utilize the brand indefinitely.

Brand Not amortized Indefinite

INVESTMENT IN ASSOCIATE

Associates are entities over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Significant influence represents the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but does not represent the right to exercise control or joint control over those policies.

A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby the Company and other parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control (i.e. when the strategic, financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activities of the joint venture require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control).

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost inclusive of transaction costs.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at the end of each financial reporting period or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the cash-generating unit, or “CGU”). The recoverable amount of an asset or a CGU is the higher of its fair value, less costs of disposal, and its value in use. If the carrying amountof an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment charge is recognized immediately in profit or loss by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the recoverable amount. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the lesser of the revised estimate of recoverable amount, and the carrying amount that would have been recorded had no impairment loss been recognized previously.

The Company assesses impairment of property, plant and equipment when an impairment indicator arises. When the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or group of assets, the asset is tested at the CGU level. In assessing an impairment, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset or CGU to the recoverable amount, which is determined as the higher of the asset or CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal and itsvalue-in-use.Value-in-use is assessed based on the estimated future cash flows, discounted to their present value using apre-tax discount rate that reflects applicable market and economic conditions, the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

7

Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are tested annually and the end of the fiscal year for impairment by comparing the carrying value of each CGU containing the assets to its recoverable amount. Goodwill is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGU’s for impairment testing based on the level at which it is monitored by management, and not at a level higher than an operating segment. Operating segments are components of the Company that engage in business activities which generate revenues and incur expenses. Goodwill is allocated to those CGUs or groups of CGUs expected to benefit from the business combination from which the goodwill arose, which requires the use of judgment. The Company has determined that goodwill and indefinite life intangibles are tested at theadult-use cannabis level representing the primary operations of the Company as described in note 1.

An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the CGU’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amounts of the CGU’s assets have been determined based on its fair value less costs of disposal. Impairment losses recognized in respect of a CGU are first allocated to the carrying value of goodwill and any excess is allocated to the carrying value of assets in the CGU. In allocating a reversal of an impairment loss, the carrying amount of an asset shall not be increased above the lower of its recoverable amount and the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior period. Impairment losses on goodwill are not subsequently reversed.

Impairment losses are recognized whenever the carrying amount of the asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount and is recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income.

The Company estimated the recoverable amounts of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets by estimating the higher of their fair value less costs of disposal and value in use, which are level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The key assumption that drove management’s determination of the recoverable amounts of the CGU’s were capacity multiples of comparable industry peers.

GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid for the acquisition of the Company’s subsidiary Newstrike over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, and whenever events or circumstances that make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred, such as a significant adverse change in the business climate or a decision to sell or dispose all or a portion of a reporting unit.

LEASED ASSETS

Leases are classified as an operating lease whenever the terms of the lease do not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. Lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except where another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the economic benefits are consumed.

BUSINESS ACQUISITION

A business combination is a transaction or event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses and is accounted for using the acquisition method. The total consideration paid for the acquisition is the aggregate of the fair values of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the acquiree at the acquisition date. The acquisition date is the date when the Company obtains control of the acquiree. The identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition date fair values, except for deferred taxes and share-based payment awards where IFRS provides exceptions to recording the amounts at fair value. Goodwill represents the difference between total consideration paid and the fair value of thenet-identifiable assets acquired. Acquisition costs incurred are expensed to profit or loss. Contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition date fair value and is included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination, subject to the applicable terms and conditions. Contingent consideration that is classified as equity is not remeasured at subsequent reporting dates and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity. Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability is remeasured at subsequent reporting dates in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments with the corresponding gain or loss recognized in profit or loss.

Based on the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, management will perform a valuation analysis to allocate the purchase price based on the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. Management has one year from the acquisition date to confirm and finalize the facts and circumstances that support the finalized fair value analysis and related purchase price allocation. Until such time, these values are provisionally reported and are subject to change. Changes to fair values and allocations are retrospectively adjusted in subsequent periods.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company has effectively applied the new IFRS 15 standard to the current fiscal year and retrospectively, see ‘New IFRS Effective August 1, 2018.’

COST OF GOODS SOLD

Cost of goods sold includes cost of inventory expensed, packaging costs, shipping costs and related labour.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development to use or sell the asset. Other development expenditures are recognized in profit and loss as incurred.

8

INCOME TAXES

The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities for accounting purposes, and the irrespective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in statutory tax rates is recognized in profit or loss in the year of change. Deferred income tax assets are recorded when their recoverability is considered probable and are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has an employee stock option plan. The Company measures equity settled share-based payments based on their fair value at the grant date and recognizes compensation expense over the vesting period based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. Forfeitures are adjusted for on an actual basis. The impact of the revision of the original estimate is recognized in profit or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate. For stock options granted tonon-employees the compensation expense is measured at the fair value of goods and services receivedexcept where the fair value cannot be estimated in which case it is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted. Consideration paid by employees ornon-employees on the exercise of stock options is recorded as share capital and the related share-based compensation is transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST

Non-controlling interest (“NCI”) is recognized at the NCI’s proportionate share of the net assets.

LOSS PER SHARE

Loss per common share represents loss for the period attributable to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per common share is calculated by dividing the applicable loss for the year by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and all additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares had been issued during the year. The calculation of diluted loss per share excludes the effects of various conversions and exercise of options and warrants that would be anti-dilutive.

BORROWING COSTS

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period which they are incurred.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provision of the respective instrument.

Fair value estimates are made at the consolidated statement of financial position date based upon the relevant market conditions and information about the financial instrument. The Company has made the following classifications:

	IFRS 9 Classification
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents		FVTPL
Restricted cash		FVTPL
Short-term investments		FVTPL
Trade receivables		Amortized cost
Convertible debenture receivable		FVTPL
Long term investment		FVTPL
Financial liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		Amortized cost
Warrant liability		FVTPL
Deferred rent liability		Amortized cost
Term loan		Amortized cost

9

Fair Value Through Profit or Loss (“FVTPL”) Financial Assets

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTPL are those assets that do not meet the criteria to be classified at amortized cost or at FVTOCI. This category includes debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics are not solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”) or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell the financial asset.

Amortized Cost Financial Assets

Financial assets at amortized cost arenon-derivative financial assets which are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows and its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. A financial asset is initially measured at fair value, including transaction costs and subsequently at amortized cost.

Impairment of Financial Assets

Financial assets, other than those classified at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of the reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.

Financial Liabilities and Other Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at FVTPL or other financial liabilities. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are stated at fair value, with changes being recognized through the consolidated statements of income. Other financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Embedded Derivatives

Derivatives are initially measured at fair value in conjunction with the host contract; no bifurcation is performed, and any directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, the entire instrument, including the embedded derivative is measured at fair value and changes therein are recognised in profit or loss. The Company has a convertible loan receivable whereby the balance can be converted into equity. See Note 15 for transaction and valuation details.

Compound Instruments

The component parts of compound instruments (convertible debentures) issued by the Company are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. A conversion option that will be settled by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Company’s own equity instruments is an equity instrument.

At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for similarnon-convertible instruments. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest rate method until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date.

The conversion option classified as equity is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognized and included in equity and is not subsequently remeasured. In addition, the conversion option classified as equity will remain in equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss upon conversion or expiration of the conversion option.

Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible debentures are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognized directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortized over the term of the convertible debentures using the effective interest method.

For compound instruments withnon-equity derivatives, the fair value of the embedded derivative is determined first based on the contractual terms, and the initial carrying amount of the host instrument is the residual amount after separating the embedded derivative.

Transaction Costs

Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

10

Valuation of Biological Assets and Inventory

In calculating the value of the biological assets and inventory, management is required to make a number of estimates, including estimating the stage of growth of the cannabis, harvesting costs, selling costs, sales price and expected yields for the cannabis plant. In calculating final inventory values, management is required to determine an estimate of spoiled or expired inventory and compares the inventory cost versus net realizable value.

Estimated Useful Lives, Amortization and Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets

Amortization of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are dependent upon estimates of useful lives, which are determined through the exercise of judgment. The assessment of any impairment of these assets is dependent upon estimates of recoverable amounts that take into account factors such as economic and market conditions and the useful lives of assets. The impairment is amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. Management exercises judgement in the determination of the Company’s CGUs.

Share-Based Compensation

In calculating the share-based compensation expense, key estimates such as the value of the common share, the rate of forfeiture of options granted, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the Company’s stock price and the risk-free interest rate are used.

Warrants

In calculating the value of the warrants, key estimates such as the value of the common share, the expected life of the warrant, the volatility of the Company’s stock price and the risk free interest rate are used.

All broker/compensation warrants were measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, as the fair value of the related services cannot be reliably measured.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation, legal or constructive as a result of a previous event, if it is probable that the Company will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation. The amount recognized is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligations. Provisions are reviewed at the end of each reporting period and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate of the expected future cash flows.

Allocation of Purchase Price

In determining the allocation of the purchase price, estimates are used based on market research and appraisal values.

Joint Ventures and Investments in Associates

Joint ventures are joint arrangements whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Investments in associates are arrangements whereby the Company exercises significant influence. Judgement is required in the assessment of these arrangements and has been determined as follows:

Entity	Assessment	Classification
(as defined in Note 19)
Truss	Management has determined joint control is not present due to the inability to direct the day to day operations of the entity.	Investment in associate
Belleville Complex Inc.	Management has determined joint control is present based upon the board composition, decision making and the ability to direct the day to day operations of the entity.	Joint venture
HEXO MED	Management has determined joint control is present based upon the board composition, decision making and the ability to direct the day to day operations of the entity.	Joint venture

Business Acquisitions

In determining the fair value of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the most significant estimates relate to private investments and intangible assets acquired. Management exercises judgment in estimating the probability and timing of when cash flows are expected to be achieved, which is used as the basis for estimating fair value.

Identified intangible assets are fair valued using appropriate valuation techniques which are generally based on a forecast of the total expected future net cash flows of the acquiree. Valuations are highly dependent on the inputs used and assumptions made by management regarding the future performance of these assets and any changes in the discount rate applied.

Acquisitions that do not meet the definition of a business combination are accounted for as asset acquisitions. Consideration paid for an asset acquisition is allocated to the individual identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. Asset acquisitions do not give rise to goodwill.

11

Estimation on Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue streams include variable consideration as a result of return provisions and price concessions which require estimation based on historical results and forward looking expectations.

Expected Credit Losses (“ECL”) on Trade Accounts Receivable

The Company applies the simplified approach, as defined in IFRS, to measure expected credit losses, which requires the use of the lifetime expected credit loss provision for all trade receivables. To measure lifetime expected credit losses, trade receivables are first classified into groups with shared credit characteristics and the age of days past due, followed by an assessment of the Company’s historical experience of bad debts including the customers’ ability to pay and the impact of any relevant economic conditions which are expected during the life of the balance. The loss allowance is determined according to a provision matrix incorporating historical experiences adjusted for current and future conditions expected for the life of the balance.

Convertible debentures

The fair value of the convertible debentures is determined using the public market price. As the convertible debentures are classified as FVTPL, the subsequent interest as well as change in the fair value will flow through the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Deferred taxes

Significant estimates are required in determining the Company’s income tax provision. Some estimates are based on interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations. Various internal and external factors may have favorable or unfavorable effects on the Company’s future effective tax rate. These include, but are not limited to, changes in tax laws, regulations and/or rates, changing interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations, results of tax audits by tax authorities, changes in estimates of prior years’ items and changes in overall levels ofpre-tax earnings.

Going Concern

Management has applied significant judgment in the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern when preparing its consolidated financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018. Management prepares the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis unless management either intends to liquidate the entity or to cease trading or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The Company has considered the private placement subsequent to July 31, 2019 as disclosed in Note 33 in making this assessment.

New IFRS Effective August 1, 2018

IFRS 15, REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

IFRS 15 was issued by the IASB in May 2014 and specifies how and when revenue should be recognized based on a five-step model, which is applied to all contracts with customers. On April 12, 2016, the IASB published final clarifications to IFRS 15 with respect to identifying performance obligations, principal versus agent considerations, and licensing.

The Company has applied IFRS 15 retrospectively and determined that there is no change to the comparative period or transitional adjustments required as a result of the adoption. The Company’s accounting policy for revenue recognition under IFRS 15 is as follows:

1. Identifying the contract with a customer;

2. Identifying the performance obligation(s) in the contract;

3. Determining the transaction price;

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and

5. Recognizing revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).

Revenue from the direct sale of cannabis to customers for a fixed price is recognized when the Company transfers the control of the good(s) to the customer upon delivery and acceptance by the customer, the timing of which is consistent with the Company’s previous revenue recognition policy under IAS 18. The Company recognizes revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive taking into account the impact which may arise from any rights of return on sales, price concessions or similar obligations. Net revenue is presented net of taxes, estimated returns, allowances and discounts.

Effective October 17, 20

Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) began levying an excise taxes on the sale of medical andadult-us cannabis products. The Company becomes liable for these excise duties when cannabis products are delivered to the customer. The excise taxes payable is the higher of (i) a flat-rate duty which is imposed when a cannabis product is packaged, and (ii) an advalorem duty that is imposed when a cannabis product is delivered to the customer.

12

Effective May 1, 2019, excise tax calculated on edible cannabis products, cannabis extracts and cannabis topicals will prospectively be calculated as a flat rate based on the quantity of total tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) contained in the final product. There were no changes in the legislation in calculating excise taxes for fresh cannabis, dried cannabis, seeds and plants. Net revenue from sale of goods, as presented on the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income, represents revenue from the sale of goods less applicable excise taxes. Given that the excise tax payable/paid to CRA cannot be reclaimed and is not always billed to customers, the Company recognizes that the excise tax is an operating cost that affects gross margin to the extent that it is not recovered from its customers.

IFRS 9, FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted IFRS 9 retroactively and determined that there is no change to the comparative period or transitional adjustments required as a result of the adoption.

IFRS 9 was issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) in November 2009 and October 2010 and will replace IAS 39. IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is classified and measured at amortized cost or at fair value. The classification and measurement of financial assets is based on the Company’s business models for managing its financial assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”). Financial assets under IFRS 9 are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at either amortized cost; fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) or; fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”).

Amortized Cost

Financial assets classified and measured at amortized cost are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI. Financial assets classified at amortized cost are measured using the effective interest method.

FVTOCI

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTOCI are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI.

This classification includes certain equity instruments where IFRS 9 allows an entity to make an irrevocable election to classify the equity instruments, on aninstrument-by-instrument basis, that would otherwise be measured at FVTPL to present subsequent changes in FVTOCI.

FVTPL

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTPL are those assets that do not meet the criteria to be classified at amortized cost or at FVTOCI. This category includes debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics are not SPPI or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell the financial asset.

The following table summarizes the Company’s financial instruments under IAS 39 and IFRS 9:

	IAS 39 Classification		IFRS 9 Classification
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents		FVTPL		FVTPL
Restricted cash		FVTPL		FVTPL
Short-term investments		FVTPL		FVTPL
Trade receivables		Loans and receivables		Amortized cost
Convertible debenture receivable		FVTPL		FVTPL
Long term investment		N/A		FVTPL
Financial liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		Other financial liabilities		Amortized cost
Warrant liability		FVTPL		FVTPL
Deferred rent liability		N/A		Amortized cost
Term loan		N/A		Amortized cost

The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have a quantitative impact and did not have a material impact to the Company’s classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities.

13

IFRS 9 uses an expected credit loss impairment model as opposed to an incurred credit loss model under IAS 39. The impairment model is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost where any expected future credit losses are provided for, irrespective of whether a loss event has occurred as at the reporting date. For trade receivables, the Company has measured the expected credit losses based on lifetime expected credit losses taking into consideration historical credit loss experience and financial factors specific to the debtors and other factors. The carrying amount of trade receivables is reduced for any expected credit losses through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss. At the point when the Company is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible, the amount is considered not recoverable and the financial asset is written off. Evidence of impairment may include indications that a debtor or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and where observable data indicates that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults. Trade receivables are reviewed qualitatively on acase-by-case basis to determine whether they need to be written off. The adoption of the new expected credit loss impairment model had a negligible impact on the carrying amounts of financial assets at amortized cost.

Classification and Measurement of Financial Liabilities

Accounting for financial liabilities remains largely the same under IFRS 9 and subsequently the Company’s liabilities were not significantly impacted by the adoption.

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Company designates a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments).

New and Revised IFRS in Issue but Not Yet Effective

IFRS 16, LEASES

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 Leases, which will replace IAS 17 Leases. This standard introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term greater than twelve months, unless the underlying asset’s value is insignificant. A lessee is required to recognize aright-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. Lessors will continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with lessor accounting remaining substantially unchanged from the preceding guidance under IAS 17, Leases.

The Company is currently executing its implementation plan and has completed the initial scoping phase to identify material lease contracts. The analysis of such contracts to quantify the transitional impact is ongoing. The most significant impact of IFRS 16 will be our initial recognition of the present value of future lease payments asright-of-use assets under property, plant and equipment and the corresponding recognition of a lease liability on the consolidated statement of financial position. All material, long-term property leases, which are currently treated as operating leases, are expected to be impacted by the new standard which will result in lower rent expense, higher depreciation expense and higher finance costs related to accretion and interest expense of the lease liability.

IFRS 16 will also impact the presentation of the consolidated statement of cash flows by decreasing operating cash flows and increasing financing cash flows. The standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year commencing August 1, 2019. The Company will be adopting the standard using the modified approach by recognizing the cumulative impact of initial adoption in opening retained earnings (i.e. the difference between theright-of-use asset and the lease liability). The Company will measure theright-of-use asset at an amount equal to the lease liability on the commencement date, apply a single discount rate to leases with similar remaining lease terms for similar classes of underlying assets and will not separatenon-lease components from lease components for certain classes of underlying assets. Consistent with the guidance, the Company will not apply this standard to short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value.

4. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with a maturity of 3 months or less. Short term investments are comprised of liquid investments with maturities of less than 12 months. Short term investments are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value through profit or loss.

	Interest rate	July 31, 2019 Total		July 31, 2018 Total
Operating cash	—	$	5,993	$	66,438
High interest savings accounts	1.45%–2.10%		107,575		32,604
Total cash and cash equivalents		$	113,568	$	99,042
Term deposits & GIC	2.85%–4.25% maturity of 3 to 12 months	$	25,937	$	145,747
Total short-term investments		$	25,937	$	145,747

Interest income earned in the period amounted to $5,187 (July 31, 2018 - $2,115).

5. Restricted Cash

As at July 31, 2019, the Company had $22,350 of restricted funds. Of this, $3,433 is currently in escrow to facilitate the purchase of supply agreements with vendors. The amount of $433 shall be drawn down on apro-rata basis based upon the delivery of goods to the Company. The remaining balance of $3,000 may be contributed to or drawn upon, in order to retain 15% of the future expected purchases.

A balance of $3,141 has been restricted to secure the implementation of greenhouse infrastructure with a vendor (Note 23). Additionally, the Company had a capital contribution of $4,076 held in trust as at July 31, 2019.

The remaining balance of $9,200 has been restricted due to a minimum balance to be held in a debt service reserve account as required under the Company’s term loan agreement (Note 23). A balance of $2,500 is held in trust related the Company’s joint venture Neal Brothers Inc (Note 28).

The inventory expensed to cost of goods sold in the year ended July 31, 2019, was $18,565 (July 31, 2018 – $965). Total stock-based compensation expensed to costs of sales in the period as $936. The fair value adjustment on the sale of inventory during the period was $16,357 (July 31, 2018 – $2,289). The Company recorded an impairment loss on inventory of $19,335, realized on cannabis trim and milled inventory in which the cost exceeds its net realizable value.

During the year ended July 31, 2018, the Company recorded an adjustment to the net realizable value of inventories of $1,491. This was due to the decrease in the estimated market selling price input of the inventory valuation which was caused by the onset of theadult-use market and is reflective of competitive market prices.

8. Biological Assets

The Company’s biological assets consist of cannabis plants from seeds all the way through to mature plants. The changes in the carrying value of biological assets are as follows:

	July 31, 2019			July 31, 2018
Carrying amount, beginning of period	$	2,332		$	1,504
Acquired through acquisition1		3,291			—
Production costs capitalized		19,215			993
Net increase in fair value due to biological transformation less cost to sell		38,856			7,340
Transferred to inventory upon harvest		(56,323	)		(7,505	)
Carrying amount, end of period	$	7,371		$	2,332

¹  Acquired through the Newstrike acquisition on May 24, 2019 (see Note 11)

As at July 31, 2019, the fair value of biological assets included $2 in seeds and $7,369 in cannabis plants ($6 in seeds and $2,326 in cannabis plants as at July 31, 2018). The significant estimates used in determining the fair value of cannabis plants are as follows:

• yield by plant;

• stage of growth estimated as the percentage of costs incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to the estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfilment costs) to arrive at anin-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.

All biological assets are classified as current assets in the statement of financial position and are considered Level 3 fair value estimates. As at July 31, 2019, it is expected that the Company’s biological assets will yield approximately 17,571 kilograms of cannabis (July 31, 2018 – 4,374 kilograms of cannabis). The Company’s estimates are, by their nature, subject to change. Changes in the anticipated yield will be reflected in future changes in the fair values of biological assets.

The valuation of biological assets is based on an income approach 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 point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth at period end. Stage of growth is determined by reference to the cost incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfilment costs) to arrive at anin-process fair value for estimated biological assets, which have not yet been harvested.

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

The following table summarizes the unobservable inputs for the period ended July 31, 2019:

Unobservable inputs	Input values	Sensitivity analysis
Average selling price Obtained through actual retail prices on a per strain basis.	$4.23 – $5.01 per dried gram.	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average selling price would result in a change of approximately $480 to the valuation.
Yield per plant Obtained through historical harvest cycle results on a per strain basis.	15 – 123 grams per plant.	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average yield per plant would result in a change up to approximately $344 in valuation.
Stage of growth Obtained through the estimates of stage of completion within the harvest cycle.	Average of 29% completion.	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average stage of growth per plant would result in a change of approximately $1,148 in valuation.
Wastage Obtained through the estimates of wastage within the cultivation and production cycle.	0%–30% dependent upon the stage within the harvest cycle.	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the wastage expectation would result in a change of approximately $302 in valuation.

16

The following table summarizes the unobservable inputs for the period ended July 31, 2018:

Unobservable inputs	Input values	Sensitivity analysis
Average selling price Obtained through actual retail prices on a per strain basis.	$4.66 per dried gram.	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average selling price would result in a change of approximately $329 to the valuation.
Yield per plant Obtained through historical harvest cycle results on a per strain basis.	50–235 grams per plant.	An increase of decrease of 5% applied to the average yield per plant would not result in a material change in valuation.
Stage of growth Obtained through the estimates of stage of completion within the harvest cycle.	Average of 32% completion.	An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average stage of growth per plant would result in a change of approximately $320 in valuation.
Wastage Obtained through the estimates of wastage within the cultivation and production cycle.	0%–30% dependent upon the stage within the harvest cycle.	An increase of decrease of 5% applied to the average yield per plant would not result in a material change in valuation.

As at July 31, 2019, there was $21,265 (July 31, 2018 – $3,920) of property, plant and equipment in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. During the year ended July 31, 2019, the Company capitalized $4,825 of depreciation to inventory and capitalized borrowing costs to buildings in the amount of $511 (July 31, 2018 – $994) at an average annual interest rate of 3.2%. During the period depreciation expensed to the statement of loss was $1,474 (July 31, 2018 - $876).

Adjustments during the period, reflect the activation of an asset’s useful life, transitioning from construction in progress to the appropriate property, plant and equipment classification. The Company has contractual commitments for remaining leasehold improvements of $33,455 payable in fiscal year 2020 as at July 31, 2019 (July 31, 2018 - $40,471).

During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018, the Company conducted a review of its intangible assets, which resulted in changes in the expected usage of its software. Certain assets, which management previously intended to use for 5 years from the date of purchase were replaced during the fiscal year as well as September 2018. As a result, the expected useful lives of these assets decreased. The effect of these changes on actual and expected depreciation expense, in current and future years respectively is as follows.

11. Business Acquisition

Acquisition of Newstrike Brands Limited.

On May 24, 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Newstrike Brands Limited (“Newstrike”) pursuant to an arrangement agreement entered into on March 13, 2019. Newstrike is a licensed producer of cannabis operating in Ontario, Canada and was acquired for additional production capacity, established sales relationships and its brand. Under the arrangement, each former Newstrike common share was exchanged for 0.06332 of a HEXO common share (the “Exchange Ratio”), subject to certain exceptions. In addition, all issued and outstanding stock options of Newstrike were replaced with stock options of HEXO having the same terms but adjusted for the Exchange Ratio, and all issued and outstanding common share purchase warrants of Newstrike became exercisable for HEXO common shares adjusted for the Exchange Ratio.

The following table summarizes the preliminary values of the net assets acquired from Newstrike on the acquisition date. The fair values of the acquired property, plant and equipment, deferred tax liability, private investments and intangible assets are preliminary are subject to change within theone-year measurement.

(ii) Warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as at the acquisition date May 24, 2019, using the following assumptions and inputs;

• Risk free rate of 1.48% – 1.57%

• Expected life of 0.73 – 4.07 years

• Volatility rate of 75%; determined using historical volatility data

• Exercise prices of $11.84 – $27.64

21

The fair value of the vested options as at the acquisition date was deemed consideration paid in the transaction. The fair value of those options not yet vested at the acquisition date was added to the Company’s share-based payment reserve to be expensed over the remaining vesting period of the options as permitted underIFRS 3 — Business Combinations.

(iv) Included in total investments were two level 3 private company investments (see ‘Greentank Technologies’ and ‘Neal Brothers Inc.’ in Note 20). There existed limited financial information over both investments at the acquisition date. The preliminary fair values have been determined using the best available information.

The above acquisition contributed net revenue of $2,770 and a net loss of $13,699 to the Company’s consolidated results since the date of acquisition. If each acquisition had occurred on August 1, 2018, management estimates that the Company’s consolidated net revenue would have increased by $9,287 and the net loss would have increased by $19,096 for the year ended July 31, 2019.

Goodwill arising from the acquisition represents the expected synergies, future income and growth, and other intangibles that do not qualify for separate recognition. None of the goodwill arising on these acquisitions are expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The NCI acquired at the acquisition date arises from Newstrike holding a 60% interest in Neal Brothers Inc. The net assets of Neal Brothers consist of cash only and the NCI was measured at its fair value (Note 28). The NCI acquired at the acquisition date arises from Newstrike holding a 60% interest in Neal Brothers Inc. as the NCI relates to the joint venture Neal Up Brands Inc.

Accretion for the year ended July 31, 2019 was $Nil (July 31, 2018 – $814).

2018 Unsecured Convertible Debentures 7%

On November 24, 2017, the Company issued $69,000 principal amount of unsecured debentures through a brokered private placement. The debentures bear interest at 7% per annum and mature on November 24, 2020. Interest will be accrued and paid semi-annually in arrears. The debentures were convertible into common shares of the Company at $2.20 at the option of the holder. The Company may force the conversion of the debentures on 30 days prior written notice should the daily weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company be greater than $3.15 for any 10 consecutive trading days. The debenture holders received 15,663,000 warrants, 227 for every $1,000 unit. The warrants have atwo-year term, expiring November 24, 2019, and have an exercise price of $3.00. The Company has the right to accelerate the expiry of the warrants should the closing trading price of the common shares of the Company be greater than $4.50 for any 10 consecutive trading days.

On initial recognition, the residual method was used to allocate the fair value of the warrants and conversion option. The fair value of the liability component was calculated as $58,187 using a discount rate of 14%. The residual proceeds of $10,813 were allocated between the warrants and conversion option on apro-rata basis relative to their fair values. The fair values of the warrants and conversion option were determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

The warrants were valued with a fair value $8,648 using the following assumptions:

• stock price of $2.62;

• expected life of one year;

• $Nil dividends; 65% volatility; based upon comparative market indicators and historical data

• risk free interest rate of 1.25%.

The conversion option was valued with a fair value of $17,843 using the following assumptions:

• stock price of $2.62;

• expected life of three months;

• $Nil dividends; 65% volatility; based upon comparative market indicators and historical data

• risk free interest rate of 1.25%.

Based on the fair value of the warrants and conversion option, the residual proceeds of $10,813 were allocated as $3,530 to the warrants and $7,283 to the conversion option, less allocation of issuance costs.

In connection with the closing of the debentures, the Company paid a placement fee of $3,450 from the gross proceeds of the financing and incurred an additional $476 of issuance costs. The Company also issued broker warrants exercisable to acquire 1,568 common shares at an exercise price of $3.00 per share.

The broker warrants were attributed a fair value of $866 based on the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:

• stock price of $2.62;

• expected life of 1 year;

• $Nil dividends;

• 65% volatility; based upon comparative market indicators and historical data

• risk free interest rate of 1.25%.

The total issuance costs amounted to $4,792 and were allocated onpro-rata basis as follows: Debt – $4,041, Conversion option – $506, and the Warrants – $245.

The Company became entitled to force the conversion of the 7.0% Debentures on December 13, 2017 on the basis that the VWAP of the Common Shares on the TSXV for 10 consecutive trading days was equal to or exceeded $3.15. For the 10 consecutive trading days preceding December 13, 2017, the VWAP of the Common Shares was $3.32. The Company provided the holders of the 7.0% Debentures with the required 30 days advance written notice of the conversion, and the effective date for the conversion was January 15, 2018.

Pursuant to the conversion of the 7.0% Debentures, holders of the 7.0% Debentures received 454.54 Common Shares for each $1,000 principal amount of 7.0% Debentures held. In addition, the accrued and unpaid interest on each $1,000 principal amount of the 7.0% Debentures for the period from December 31, 2017 (the interest payment scheduled for December 31, 2017 was paid in cash) up to, but excluding the conversion date, was $2.92 and 7.0% Debenture holders received an additional 1.33 Common Shares for each $1,000 principal amount of 7.0% Debentures held on account of accrued and unpaid interest, for a total of 455.87 Common Shares for each $1,000 principal amount of 7.0% Debentures held. Accordingly, at the date of conversion the carrying value of the debentures of $54,700, interest payable paid through shares of $46 and the conversion feature of $6,809 resulted in the cumulative increase to share capital of $61,555.

There exists no convertible debt as at July 31, 2019.

Stock-based Compensation

For the year ended July 31, 2019, the Company recorded $28,008 (July 31, 2018 – $4,997) in stock-based compensation expense related to employee options, which are measured at fair value at the date of grant and are expensed over the vesting period (See Note 18 for stock based compensation allocation by expense group). In determining the amount of stock-based compensation, the Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to establish the fair value of options granted by applying the following assumptions:

	July 31, 2019			July 31, 2018
Exercise price	$	0.75–$8.95		$	1.37–$5.14
Stock price	$	5.09–$8.50		$	1.37–$5.14
Risk-free interest rate		1.54%–2.42	%		2.06%-2.37	%
Forfeiture rates		2.39%–4.48	%		—
Expected life of options (years)		5–7			7
Expected annualized volatility		64%–76	%		65	%

28

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 year ended July 31, 2019, the Company allocated to inventory $1,724 (July 31, 2018 – $Nil) of stock-based compensation applicable to direct and indirect labour in the selling and production process.

17. Financial Instruments

Market Risk

Interest Risk

The Company has exposure to interest rate risk related to any investments of surplus cash. The Company may invest surplus cash in highly liquid investments with short terms to maturity that would accumulate interest at prevailing rates for such investments. The Company also has exposure to interest rate risk related to the outstanding balance of the term loan. The fluctuation of the interest rate may result in a material increase to the associated interest. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had short term investments and a convertible debenture of $517 and a long term loan of $33,374. All interest rates are fixed. An increase or decrease of 5% to the applicable interest rates would not result in a material variance to net loss.

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 are based on quoted market prices which the shares of the investments can be exchanged for.

If the fair value of these financial assets were to increase or decrease by 10% as of July 31, 2019, the Company would incur an associated increase or decrease in comprehensive loss of approximately $340 (2018 - $Nil). The price risk exposure as at July 31, 2019 is presented in the table below.

	$
Financial assets		16,756
Financial liabilities		(493	)
Total exposure		16,263

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, promissory note receivable and convertible debenture receivable. As at July 31, 2019, the Company was exposed to credit related losses in the event ofnon-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, the Company has limited credit risk.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are held by some of the largest cooperative financial groups in Canada. Since the inception of the Company, no losses have been incurred in relation to cash held by the financial institution. The majority of the trade receivables balance are held with crown corporations of Quebec, Ontario and Alberta as well as one of the largest medical insurance companies in Canada. Credit worthiness 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 year ended July 31, 2019 is $37 (July 31, 2018 - $94).

30

In measuring the expected credit losses, theadult-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 possess share 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, short-term investments, trade receivables and convertible debentures receivable represents the maximum exposure to credit risk and as at July 31, 2019; this amounted to $194,902.

The following table summarizes the Company’s aging of trade receivables as at July 31, 2019 and 2018:

	July 31, 2019		July 31, 2018
	$		$
0–30 days		14,102		262

Over 90 days		24		94
Total		37		94

Economic Dependence Risk

Economic dependence risk is the risk of reliance upon a select number of customers which significantly impact the financial performance of the Company. The Company recorded sales from three crown corporations representing 81% (July 31, 2018 – Nil%) of total sales in the year ended July 31, 2019.

The Company holds trade receivables from three crown corporations representing 79% of total trade receivables as of July 31, 2019 (July 31, 2018 – Nil%).

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by reviewing on an ongoing basis its capital requirements. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had $139,505 of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.

The Company is obligated to pay accounts payable and accrued liabilities, excise taxes payable and current portions of the term loan with total carrying amounts and contractual cash flows amounting to $52,685 due in the next 12 months.

The carrying values of cash, trade receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short term to maturity. The carrying value of the term loan approximates its fair value as there has been no change the Company’s risk profile and no changes to the market interest rate.

$70 Million Private Placement

On October 23, 2019, the Company announced it has entered into subscription agreements with a group of investors pursuant to which the investors have agreed to purchase, on a private placement basis, $70,001 principal amount of 8.0% unsecured debentures of the Company (the “Debentures”).

The Debentures will bear interest from the date of closing at 8.0% per annum payable quarterly and will mature on the date which is three years from issuance. Following the date, which is one year from issuance, the Debentures will be convertible at the option of the holder into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price of $3.16 per share (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment in certain events.

Beginning on the date which is one year from issuance, the Company may force the conversion of all of the principal amount of the then outstanding Debentures at the Conversion Price on not less than 30 days’ notice should the daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company be greater than $7.50 for any 15 consecutive trading days.

At any time on or before the date which is one year from issuance, the Company may repay all, but not less than all, of the principal amount of the Debentures, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Upon any repayment of the principal amount of the Debentures, the Company shall have the right to satisfy the repayment of the principal amount, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, through the conversion of such amounts into common shares of the Company at the Conversion Price.

Upon a change of control of the Company, holders of the Debentures will have the right to require the Company to repurchase their Debentures, in whole or in part, on the date that is 30 days following the giving of notice of the change of control, at a price equal to 115% of the principal amount of the Convertible Debentures then outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon (the “Offer Price”). If 90% or more of the principal amount of the Convertible Debentures outstanding on the date of the notice of the change of control have been tendered for redemption, the Company will have the right to redeem all of the remaining Debentures at the Offer Price.

The Debentures and any common shares of the Company issuable upon conversion thereof will be subject to a statutory hold period lasting four months and one day following the closing date.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the private placement for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about November 15, 2019. The private placement is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including the approvals of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.

34. Correction of Errors

Subsequent to the original issuance of these consolidated financial statements, management determined that the Company determined that the deferred tax liability was overstated as at July 31, 2019, as it was not offset by a deferred tax asset relating to a tax loss generated in one subsidiary against a deferred tax liability generated by a separate subsidiary. Due to the two tax positions existing in two separate entities, the Company’s original position was that they could not be offset or reduce one another. The applicable subsidiaries were amalgamated on August 1, 2019. The correction of this error resulted in a reduction of the deferred tax liability and deficit, by $14,373, as at July 31, 2019. Additionally, net loss for the year ended July 31, 2019 was overstated by $14,373. These corrections are noted in the ‘Corrections’ column in the following tables.

As guided under IAS 12.67, the Company has netted the applicable portion of the deferred tax liability against the deferred tax asset resulting in the stated correction of this error in the following tables.

In assessing the financial impact of subsequent events, the Company also determined additional write-down of its cannabis trim based inventory based on the estimated fair market value due to new and available third party information resulting in an increased impairment loss on inventory of $2,417. These corrections are noted in the‘Adjustments’ column in the following tables.
