1. | Description of business |
Canopy Growth Corporation is a publicly traded corporation, incorporated in Canada, with its head office located at 1 Hershey Drive, Smiths Falls, Ontario with its common shares listed on the TSX, under the trading symbol “WEED” and as of May 24, 2018 on the NYSE, under the trading symbol “CGC”. References in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements to “Canopy Growth” or “the Company” refer to Canopy Growth Corporation and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.
The principal activities of the Company are the production, distribution and sale of cannabis as regulated by the Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (“ACMPR”) in Canada, up to and including October 16, 2018. On October 17, 2018, the ACMPR was superseded by The Cannabis Act which regulates the production, distribution, and possession of cannabis for both medical and adult recreational access in Canada. The Company is also expanding to jurisdictions outside of Canada where federally lawful and regulated for cannabis and/or hemp including subsidiaries which operate in the United States, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia / Pacific, and Africa. Through its partially owned subsidiary Canopy Rivers Inc. (“Canopy Rivers”), the Company also provides growth capital and a strategic support platform that pursues investment opportunities in the global cannabis sector, where federally lawful.
(a) Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the audited annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), have been omitted or condensed. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Canopy Growth’s March 31, 2019 audited annual consolidated financial statements. Except for the adoption of IFRS 16, Leases (“IFRS 16”), and the change in accounting policy with respect to royalty payments, as described in Note 2(c) and Note 2(d), respectively, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the March 31, 2019 audited annual consolidated financial statements.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods in accordance with IFRS.
The results reported in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for an entire fiscal year. The policies set out below are consistently applied to all periods presented, unless otherwise noted.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on February 13, 2020.
All figures are presented in thousands of Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
(b) Basis of presentation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for biological assets and certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value.
(i) Consolidation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are comprised of the financial results of the Company and its subsidiaries, which are the entities over which Canopy Growth has control. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and can affect those returns through its power over the investee. Non-controlling interests in the equity of Canopy Growth’s subsidiaries are shown separately in equity in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position. Information on the Company’s subsidiaries with non-controlling interests is included in Note 18.

(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
Acquisitions of subsidiaries and businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The Company measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred, including the recognized amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, less the net recognized amount of the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed, all measured as of the acquisition date. Any excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over the assumed consideration paid is recognized as a gain in the condensed interim consolidated statements of operations. The Company elects on a transaction-by-transaction basis whether to measure non-controlling interest at its fair value or at its proportionate share of the recognized amount of the identifiable net assets, at the acquisition date.
Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.
Refer to Note 24 for additional information on the Company’s acquisitions.
(ii) Investments accounted for using the equity method
Investments accounted for using the equity method include investments in associates, which are entities over which the Company exercises significant influence, and joint arrangements representing joint ventures. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but without control or joint control over those policies. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The Company accounts for its investments in associates and joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in associates and joint ventures are initially recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position at cost, and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of the net income (loss), comprehensive income (loss) and distributions of the investee. The carrying value is assessed for impairment at each statement of financial position date.
Refer to Note 9 for additional information on the Company’s investments accounted for using the equity method.
(c) Adoption of IFRS 16, Leases and resulting changes to lease accounting policy
On April 1, 2019 the Company adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under IAS 17, Leases (“IAS 17”) and IFRIC 4, Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease (“IFRIC 4”).
Lease accounting policy applicable from April 1, 2019
Definition of a lease
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys this right the Company assesses whether:
| • | The contract involves the use of an identified asset – this may be specified explicitly or implicitly, and should be physically distinct or represent substantially all of the capacity of a physically distinct asset; |
| • | The Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the period of use; and |
| • | The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company has this right when it has the decision-making rights that are most relevant to changing how and for what purpose the asset is used. |
At inception or reassessment of a contract that contains lease and non-lease components, the Company allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices.

Accounting as a lessee under IFRS 16
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated statements of financial position at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.
The right-of-use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of its useful life or the end of the lease term. The estimated useful lives of right-of-use assets are determined on the same basis as those of property, plant and equipment. In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise (a) fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments; (b) variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date; (c) amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and (d) the exercise price under a purchase option that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional renewal period if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the Company is reasonably certain not to terminate early.
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Company’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee, or if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, extension or termination option. When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to $nil.
Transition to IFRS 16
Practical expedients
On transition to IFRS 16, the Company elected to apply the practical expedient to grandfather the assessment of which transactions represent leases. The Company applied IFRS 16 only to contracts that were previously identified as leases under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4. Therefore, the definition of a lease under IFRS 16 was applied only to contracts entered into, or changed, on or after April 1, 2019.
The Company used the following additional practical expedients:
| • | Applied a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics; |
| • | Adjusted the right-of-use assets by the amount of any onerous contract provisions recognized under IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets immediately before the date of initial application, as an alternative to an impairment review; |
| • | Applied the exemption not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases with terms less than 12 months and leases of low-value assets. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line or other systematic basis over the lease term; |
| • | Excluded initial direct costs from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial application; and |
| • | Used hindsight when determining the lease term if the contract contains options to extend or terminate the lease. |

(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
Leases classified as finance leases under IAS 17
For leases that were classified as finance leases under IAS 17, the carrying amounts of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability at April 1, 2019, are determined as the carrying amounts of the lease asset and lease liability under IAS 17 immediately before that date.
Impacts on consolidated financial statements
On transition to IFRS 16, the Company elected to measure the right-of-use assets at the amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments. As at April 1, 2019, the Company recognized $99,880 of right-of-use assets, net of onerous lease provisions of $10,703, and $110,583 of lease liabilities, with a $nil impact on deficit. The transition to IFRS 16 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or liquidity.
When measuring lease liabilities, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate at April 1, 2019. The weighted-average rate applied was 4.5%. Right-of-use assets are recognized in Property, plant and equipment (see Note 11), and lease liabilities are recognized in Other current liabilities and Other long-term liabilities (see Note 15).
| (d) Change in accounting policy |
Effective July 1, 2019, the Company changed its accounting policy with respect to royalties. Prior to this change the Company recorded all royalty expenses as Inventory production costs expensed to cost of sales. The Company now classifies certain royalty expenses, which are based upon contractually predetermined percentages of sales of particular products and the related amortization of minimum payments, as Sales and marketing expense. The Company believes that the revised policy and presentation provides reliable and more relevant financial information to users of the consolidated financial statements.
The change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively. The Company has restated the comparative figures in the consolidated statements of operations, resulting in (i) decreases of $3,429 and $5,991 to the previously reported Inventory production costs expensed to cost of sales amounts for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2018, respectively, and (ii) increases of $3,429 and $5,991 to the previously reported Sales and marketing expense for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018, respectively. The Company has also restated the results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2019 resulting in a decrease of $4,131 to the previously reported Inventory production costs expensed to cost of sales amount and a corresponding increase of $4,131 to the previously reported Sales and marketing expense.

| | | | | | | | |
Balance, end of period | | $ | 59,107 | | | $ | 78,975 | |
Biological assets are valued in accordance with IAS 41, Agriculture, based on a market approach where fair value at the point of harvest is estimated based on selling prices less costs to sell at harvest. The Company’s biological assets are primarily cannabis plants, and because there is no actively traded commodity market for plants or dried product, the valuation of these biological assets is obtained using valuation techniques where the inputs are based upon unobservable market data (Level 3).
For in-process biological assets, the fair value at point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth. Stage of growth is determined by reference to costs incurred to date as a percentage of total expected costs from inception to harvest. As at December 31, 2019, the average stage of growth for the biological assets was 47%, compared to an average stage of growth of 42% as at March 31, 2019.

Investment in More Life
On November 7, 2019 the Company entered into agreements with certain entities that are controlled by Aubrey “Drake” Graham to launch the More Life Growth Company (“More Life”). Under the agreements Canopy Growth will sell 100% of the shares of 1955625 Ontario Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Canopy Growth that holds the Health Canada license for a facility located in Scarborough, Ontario to More Life (“More Life Facility”) in exchange for a 40% interest in More Life. Drake will hold a 60% ownership interest.
As consideration for Drake’s interest, Drake has granted More Life the right to exclusively exploit certain intellectual property and brands in association with the growth, manufacture, production, marketing and sale of cannabis and cannabis-related products, accessories, merchandise and paraphernalia in Canada and internationally. The maintenance of the non-Canada rights after 18 months is contingent upon certain performance criteria of More Life. More Life has sublicensed such rights in Canada to Canopy Growth in exchange for royalty payments. On the transaction date Canopy Growth recorded an intangible asset equal to the present value of the agreed minimum royalty payments. The intangible asset will be amortized over its estimated useful life.
Following this transaction, the Company no longer controls 1955625 Ontario Inc. and the Company derecognized the assets and liabilities of 1955625 Ontario Inc. from its consolidated financial statements at their carrying amounts. Management has concluded that the subsidiary does not meet the definition of an operation and no goodwill was allocated. The derecognized assets and liabilities on November 7, 2019, were as follows:
Cash | | $ | 100 | |
Intangible assets | | | 2,810 | |
| | | | |
Net assets disposed | | $ | 2,910 | |
| | | | |
Fair value of retained interest | | | 25,200 | |
Gain on disposal of consolidated entity | | $ | 22,290 | |
The gain calculated on the derecognition of 1955625 Ontario Inc.’s assets and liabilities is the difference between the carrying amounts of the derecognized assets and liabilities of 1955625 Ontario Inc. and the fair value of the consideration received, being the fair value of the Company’s interest in More Life. The fair value of this interest was estimated to be $25,200 which was determined using a discounted cash flow approach. The most significant inputs to the fair value measurement are the discount rate and expectations about future royalties.
Through its ownership and other rights, the Company has significant influence over More Life and will account for its interest in More Life using the equity method of accounting. The investment will initially be recognized at its fair value and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Company’s share of net income or loss and other

(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
comprehensive income or loss. The Company will record its share of net income or loss one quarter in arrears with adjustments for any significant transactions. The accounting for More Life has only been provisionally determined at the end of the reporting period. To the extent that there are differences between the fair value of the assets and liabilities of More Life and the book value of these assets and liabilities that would impact earnings the Company will account for these differences in its equity earnings in the investee.
Canopy Growth and Drake have entered into an operating agreement which governs the operations of the More Life Facility. Under this agreement Canopy Growth will continue to provide all of the day-to-day operations and maintenance of the More Life Facility and will retain all of the rights to distribute the product that is cultivated at the More Life Facility in exchange for the payment of an additional royalty to More Life on the sales of cannabis produced at the More Life Facility. The term of the Operating Agreement is five years plus two five subsequent year renewals at Canopy’s option, provided that the Canopy Sub-License Term is also extended for such periods. Since Canopy Growth controls the facility and the biological assets and inventory grown at that facility the property, plant and equipment at the facility and the related biological assets and inventory will be recorded as assets of Canopy Growth.

(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
In determining the amount of share-based compensation related to options issued during the period, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to establish the fair value of options granted during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 on their measurement date by applying the following assumptions:
| | December 31, 2019 | | | December 31, 2018 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Risk-free interest rate | | 1.60% | | | 1.96% | |
Expected life of options (years) | | 3 - 5 | | | 2 - 5 | |
Expected annualized volatility | | 73% | | | 77% | |
Expected forfeiture rate | | 13% | | | 12% | |
Expected dividend yield | | nil | | | nil | |
Black-Scholes value of each option | | $ | 14.58 | | | $ | 21.56 | |
Volatility was estimated by using the historical volatility of the Company. The expected life in years represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate was based on the zero coupon Canada government bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2019, 3,642,733 Omnibus Plan options were exercised ranging in price from $0.22 to $40.68 for gross proceeds of $39,149 (for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 – 4,278,671 Omnibus Plan options were exercised ranging in price from $0.56 to $29.57 for gross proceeds of $28,728).
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued nil RSUs. As at December 31, 2019, the Company had 10,264 RSUs issued and outstanding, of which 1,464 were exercisable. Included in the share-based compensation expense during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, was a forfeiture of 100,000 RSUs, resulting in a recovery of share-based compensation expense of $(2,552) (three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 – $nil). For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded $(2,552) and $129 respectively, in share-based compensation expense related to these RSUs (for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 – $400 and $3,075).
(c) Share-based compensation expense related to acquisition and asset purchase milestones
Share-based compensation expense related to acquisition milestones is comprised of:
| | Three months ended | | | Nine months ended | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | December 31, 2019 | | | December 31, 2018 | | | December 31, 2019 | | | December 31, 2018 | |

Colombia | | $ | 3,365 | | | $ | 9,845 | | | $ | 9,765 | | | $ | 19,262 | |
Canindica | | | 1,629 | | | | 6,643 | | | | 7,925 | | | | 36,001 | |
Other | | | (78 | ) | | | 7,361 | | | | 6,621 | | | | 26,411 | |

| | $ | 4,916 | | | $ | 23,849 | | | $ | 24,311 | | | $ | 81,674 | |
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, 665,297 and 1,232,148 shares, respectively (three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 – nil and 1,908,532 respectively) were released on completion of acquisition milestones. At December 31, 2019, there were up to 5,354,764 shares to be issued on the completion of acquisition and asset purchase milestones. In certain cases, the number of shares to be issued is based on the volume weighted average share price at the time the milestones are met. The number of shares has been estimated assuming the milestones were met at December 31, 2019. The number of shares excludes shares to be issued on July 4, 2023 to the previous shareholders of Spectrum Cannabis Colombia S.A.S. (“Spectrum Colombia”) and Canindica Capital Ltd. (“Canindica”) based on the fair market value of the Company’s Latin American business on that date.

Balance outstanding at December 31, 2019 | | | 13,297,671 | | | $ | 2.30 | |
In determining the amount of share-based compensation related to options issued during the period, Canopy Rivers used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to establish the fair value of options granted during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 on their measurement date by applying the following assumptions:
| | December 31, 2019 | | | December 31, 2018 | |

Risk-free interest rate | | 1.61% | | | 2.29% | |

Expected annualized volatility | | 70% | | | 70% | |
Expected forfeiture rate | | nil | | | nil | |
Expected dividend yield | | nil | | | nil | |
Black-Scholes value of each option | | $ | 0.84 | | | $ | 2.06 | |
Volatility was estimated using companies that Canopy Rivers considers comparable that have trading and volatility history prior to Canopy Rivers becoming public. The expected life in years represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate was based on zero coupon Canada government bonds with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options.

for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
There have been no material changes to income tax matters in connection with normal course operations during the nine months ended December 31, 2019.
The Company is subject to income tax in numerous jurisdictions with varying tax rates. During the nine months ended December 31, 2019 there were no material changes to the statutory tax rates in the taxing jurisdictions where the majority of the Company’s income for tax purposes was earned, or where its temporary differences or losses are expected to be realized or settled.
The Company continues to believe the amount of unrealized tax benefits appropriately reflects the uncertainty of items that are or may in the future be under discussion, audit, dispute or appeal with a tax authority or which otherwise result in uncertainty in the determination of income for tax purposes. If appropriate, an unrealized tax benefit will be realized in the reporting period in which the Company determines that realization is not in doubt. Where the final determined outcome is different from the Company’s estimate, such difference will impact the Company’s income taxes in the reporting period during which such determination is made.

Notes to the CONDENSED INTERIM consolidated financial statements
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
The table above summarizes the fair value of the consideration given and the fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for each acquisition. Goodwill arose in these acquisitions because the cost of acquisition included a control premium. In addition, the consideration paid for the combination reflected the benefit of expected revenue growth and future market development. These benefits were not recognized separately from goodwill because they do not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets. None of the goodwill arising on these acquisitions is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
(i) C3
On April 30, 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of C3 Cannabinoid Compound Company (“C3”) for total cash consideration of $348,664. C3 is a European based biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures and commercializes natural and synthetic cannabinoid based active ingredients. In connection with the acquisition, the Company entered into a five year cooperation agreement with the former majority shareholder of C3, for which the Company paid $8,694 which will be expensed ratably over the contract term.
Due to the timing of this acquisition, the purchase price allocation for the C3 acquisition is provisional. The fair value assigned to the consideration paid, intangible assets and net assets acquired is based on management’s best estimate using the information currently available and may be revised by the Company as additional information is received.
(ii) This Works
On May 21, 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of TWP UK Holdings Limited (“This Works”) and its subsidiary companies, This Works Products Limited, TWP USA Inc. and TWP IP Limited for total cash consideration of $72,665 (GBP 42,144). Based in London, United Kingdom, This Works is a natural skincare and sleep solutions company.
Due to the timing of this acquisition, the purchase price allocation for the This Works acquisition is provisional. The fair value assigned to the consideration paid, intangible assets and net assets acquired is based on management’s best estimate using the information currently available and may be revised by the Company as additional information is received.
(iii) BioSteel
On October 1, 2019, the Company purchased 72% of the outstanding shares of BioSteel, a North America-based producer of sports nutrition products. Initial cash consideration was $50,707 subject to certain adjustments and holdbacks such that $47,924 was advanced on closing. The purchase price will be further adjusted based on a multiple of Biosteel’s calendar 2019 net revenue. This purchase price adjustment will be accounted for as a contingent consideration liability which will be fair valued on the date of acquisition. Management has estimated that this purchase price adjustment will be nominal.
Through its voting rights, the Company controls BioSteel and therefore, the acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The non-controlling interests of $18,733 recognized at acquisition date were recorded at their proportionate share of fair value.
Prior to September 30, 2019 the Company had advanced a total of $8,500 to BioSteel under a secured loan agreement. The acquisition resulted in an effective settlement of the loan payable of $8,500 which has been recorded as other consideration. Immediately following the October 1 acquisition the Company subscribed for additional shares of BioSteel for consideration of $14,000 which was funded through a cash advance of $10,000 and the conversion of $4,000 of the loan payable. After completing this investment the Company’s ownership interest in BioSteel is 76.7%.
The shares not purchased by the Company will be retained by certain current shareholders and management for a period of up to 5 years (the “Rollover Shareholders”). On the third anniversary of the closing Canopy Growth will have a right to purchase, and Rollover Shareholders will have a right to sell one half of the remaining interest held by the Rollover Shareholders to Canopy Growth at a specified valuation based on a multiple of Biosteel’s net revenue. On the fifth anniversary of the closing Canopy Growth will have a right to purchase, and Rollover Shareholders will have a right to sell the balance of the remaining interest held by the Rollover Shareholders to Canopy Growth at a valuation to be mutually agreed upon by the parties. The put options give rise to a liability for the Company (“BioSteel Put Liability”) and is recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position in Other long-term liabilities with an offsetting charge to equity. The BioSteel Put Liability is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in Net income (loss) in the period in which they arise. On the acquisition date and December 31, 2019 the fair value of the BioSteel Put Liability was

Notes to the CONDENSED INTERIM consolidated financial statements
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
estimated to be $25,000. In connection with this transaction, an amount of $143 has been recorded as an increase in equity attributable to the parent.
Due to the timing of this acquisition, the purchase price allocation for the BioSteel acquisition is provisional. The fair value assigned to the consideration paid, intangible assets and net assets acquired is based on management’s best estimate using the information currently available and may be revised by the Company as additional information is received.
(iv) BCT and Spectrum UK
Beckley Canopy Therapeutics (“BCT”) is a cannabis research and development organization in the United Kingdom which was formed in fiscal 2018 through a collaboration agreement between CHI and Beckley Research and Innovations Limited. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company and BCT had formed another joint venture – Spectrum Biomedical UK (“Spectrum UK”). The purpose of Spectrum UK was to become the exclusive distributor of cannabis-based medicinal products made by the Company. Since their inception the Company had been accounting for its 42% interest in BCT and its 67% interest in Spectrum UK using the equity method.
On October 11, 2019, the Company acquired all of its unowned interest in BCT to increase its total ownership of BCT’s issued and outstanding shares to 100%. Following this transaction, the Company will control both BCT and Spectrum UK, and both BCT and Spectrum UK will be accounted for as wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Cash consideration for this transaction was $57,930 of which $44,692 was advanced on closing, $1,170 is held in trust subject to finalizing purchase price adjustments, and $14,427 will be paid on October 1, 2020 and 2021 and has a fair value of $13,238.
Consideration also included 155,565 replacement options. The fair value of the replacement options was determined using a Black-Scholes model and $1,885 of the total fair value has been included as consideration paid to acquire BCT as it related to pre-combination vesting service and $1,987 of the fair value will be recognized as share-based compensation expense rateably over the post-combination vesting period.
The acquisition of the unowned interests are accounted for as business combinations achieved in stages under IFRS 3. The Company remeasured its 42% interest in BCT and its 67% interest in Spectrum UK to fair value and recognized a total gain of $39,485 which reflects the difference between the carrying value of $12,457 and the implied fair value $51,942. The fair value was estimated to be the transaction price less an estimated control premium of 5%.
The fair value of net assets acquired and consideration has been provisionally determined at December 31, 2019. Upon completion of a comprehensive valuation and finalization of the purchase price allocation, goodwill may be adjusted retrospectively to the acquisition date in future reporting periods. The consideration paid for BCT included $250 cash and 16,430 replacement options that were issued to a member of key management of the Company that was a shareholder and option holder in BCT.
(b) Finalization of S&B purchase price allocation
During the period ended December 2019, the Company completed its final assessment of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Storz & Bickel. The measurement period adjustments resulted in an increase to the fair value of intangible assets of $24,990 and a corresponding decrease to goodwill. On finalization of the purchase price allocation (“PPA”), a charge to amortization expense of $2,030 was recorded in the statement of consolidated operations to reflect the increased fair value of the amortizable intangible assets acquired and related depreciation.
(a) Acreage Call Option
On June 27, 2019 (the “Effective date”) Canopy Growth and Acreage Holdings, Inc. (“Acreage”) completed a Plan of Arrangement (the “Arrangement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement, shareholders of Acreage Shares and holders of certain securities convertible into Acreage shares as of June 26, 2019, received an immediate aggregate total payment of US$300 million ($395,190) in exchange for granting Canopy Growth an option (the “Call Option”) to acquire 100% of the shares of Acreage, with a requirement to do so at such time as the occurrence or waiver of changes in United States federal law to permit the general cultivation, distribution, and possession of marijuana or to remove the regulation of such activities from the federal laws of the United States (the “Acreage Triggering Event”). If the Acreage Triggering Event is not satisfied or waived by December 27, 2026, the Arrangement will terminate.
Canopy Growth Corporation |
Notes to the CONDENSED INTERIM consolidated financial statements
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
Following the occurrence, or waiver by Canopy Growth, of the Acreage Triggering Event and the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions to the completion of the acquisition, Canopy Growth will issue to the shareholders of Acreage 0.5818 of a common share of Canopy Growth (the “Acreage exchange ratio”) for each issued and outstanding subordinate voting share of Acreage held (following the automatic conversion of other classes of Acreage shares into subordinate voting shares in accordance with the Arrangement). In the event Acreage issues more than 188,235,587 subordinate voting shares on a fully diluted basis, and Canopy Growth has not provided written approval for the issuance of such additional securities, the Acreage exchange ratio shall be the fraction, calculated to six decimal places, determined by the formula of A x B/C where:
| • | “B” equals 188,235,587, and |
| • | “C” equals the aggregate number of subordinate voting shares of Acreage on a fully diluted basis at the time of acquisition. |
On the Effective date Canopy Growth also granted Acreage a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license and right to use the intellectual property, systems and trademarks in the United States for a period of 90 months. Management has estimated the fair value of this license to be nominal.
The Call Option is a derivative financial instrument. On initial recognition, the Call Option was recorded at its fair value of $395,190 and is included in Other financial assets (see Note 10). In the nine months ended December 31, 2019, fair value changes of $(265,190) were recognized in Other income (expense), net (see Note 21).
(b) Amendment to the Constellation Investor Rights Agreement and warrants
On November 1, 2018 Canopy Growth issued 104,500,000 common shares from treasury and two tranches of warrants to a subsidiary of Constellation Brands, Inc. (“Constellation”) in exchange for proceeds of $5,072,500 and entered into an Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. The first tranche warrants (“Tranche A Warrants”) allowed Constellation to acquire 88.5 million additional shares of Canopy Growth for a fixed price of $50.40 per share. The second tranche warrants (“Final Warrants”) allowed for the purchase of 51.3 million additional shares at a price equal to the 5-day volume-weighted average price immediately prior to exercise. The Final Warrants could only be exercised if the Tranche A Warrants had been exercised in full. Both the Tranche A Warrants and the Final Warrants expire on November 1, 2021. Canopy Growth accounted for the Tranche A Warrants as equity instruments with a value of $1,505,351 and the Final Warrants as derivative liabilities with a nominal value.
On June 27, 2019 Constellation and Canopy Growth entered into the Second Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement and Consent Agreement. In contemplation of these agreements, Canopy Growth also amended the terms of the Tranche A Warrants and Final Warrants as follows:
| • | Extended the term of the Tranche A Warrants to November 1, 2023 and the term of the Final Warrants to November 1, 2026. |
| • | The Final Warrants were also replaced by two tranches of warrants (the “Tranche B Warrants” and “Tranche C Warrants”) with different terms: |
| o | Tranche B Warrants allow Constellation to acquire 38.5 million shares of Canopy Growth at a fixed price of $76.68 per share. |
| o | Tranche C Warrants allow Constellation to acquire 12.8 million shares of Canopy Growth at a price equal to the 5-day volume-weighted average price immediately prior to exercise. |
| • | In connection with the Tranche B Warrants and the Tranche C Warrants, Canopy Growth will provide Constellation with a share repurchase credit of up to $1.583 billion on the aggregate exercise price of the Tranche B Warrants and Tranche C Warrants in the event that Canopy Growth does not repurchase the lesser of (i) 27,378,866 common shares, and (ii) common shares with a value of $1.583 billion, during the period commencing on June 27, 2019 and ending on the date that is 24 months after the date that Constellation exercises all of the Tranche A Warrants. |
The modifications to the Tranche A Warrants did not change their classification and they continue to be recorded at their initial carrying value, as equity instruments, under IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation (“IAS 32”). The extension of the term of the Tranche A Warrants resulted in additional value being attributed to those
Canopy Growth Corporation |
Notes to the CONDENSED INTERIM consolidated financial statements
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018
(Expressed in CDN $000’s except share amounts)
warrants. On June 27, 2019 the fair value of the Tranche A Warrants was estimated to be $2,585,961 using a Black Scholes model and assuming a volatility of 67.69%.
The Tranche B Warrants meet the fixed-for-fixed criterion and, as a result, the Tranche B Warrants are classified as equity instruments in accordance with IAS 32. Since the amendment results in Canopy Growth issuing equity instruments to Constellation to extinguish derivative liabilities, under IFRIC Interpretation 19, Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments, the fair value of an equity instrument is measured and compared to the carrying value of the liability that is extinguished with the difference recognized in net income (loss). On June 27, 2019 the fair value of the Tranche B Warrants was estimated to be $1,176,350 using a Black Scholes model and assuming a volatility of 65.18%, and the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of the derivative liabilities of $1,176,350 in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Tranche C Warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities. Therefore, 12.8 million of the Final Warrants were derecognized and 12.8 million Tranche C Warrants were recognized as new derivative liabilities. There is no impact to net income (loss) as the fair values of the Final Warrants and Tranche C Warrants are both $nil.
The share repurchase credit feature is a separate financial liability under IAS 32 and was measured on initial recognition at its fair value of $1,274,544. Management has estimated the fair value by discounting the expected cash outflows using a discount rate of 4.08%. As Constellation is the holder of Canopy Growth common shares and the share repurchase credit feature is not a derivative instrument, the effect of the transaction has been recognized directly in Shareholders’ equity. Subsequently, the financial liability is being measured at amortized cost, which was $1,301,322 at December 31, 2019. If the Company revises its estimates of the timing of payments it shall adjust the carrying amount of the financial liability to reflect actual and revised estimated contractual cashflows with the corresponding adjustment being recognized in net income (loss).
(a) Reportable segments
The Company operates in two segments. 1) Cannabis operations, which encompasses the production, distribution and sale of both medical and recreational cannabis and 2) Canopy Rivers, through which the Company provides growth capital and strategic support in the global cannabis sector, where federally lawful. Financial information for Canopy Rivers is included in Note 17 and 18.
(b) Entity-wide disclosures
All property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are located in Canada, except for $494,743 which is located outside of Canada at December 31, 2019 (March 31, 2019 - $350,125).
All revenues were generated in Canada during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019, except for $43,029 and $100,436 respectively, related to medical cannabis and cannabis related devices and merchandise generated outside of Canada (three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 – $6,089 and $11,699, respectively).
For the three months ended December 31, 2019, one customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenue (three months ended December 31, 2018 – one).
For the nine months ended December 31, 2019, one customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenue (nine months ended December 31, 2018 – one).
