Operational and Financial Highlights
First Quarter 2020 Highlights
Shipped revenue in Q1’20 decreased slightly to $20.2M, compared with $22.8M in Q4’19. Shipped revenue was reduced by price concessions of $1.2M in Q1’20, compared with $2.8M in Q4’19 and return provisions of $0.7M in Q1’20 compared with $1.0M in Q4’19, which yielded gross adult-use sales of $18.3M in Q1’20 and $19.0M in Q4’19. Additionally, the company realized sales returns of $0.6M in Q1’20 and $Nil in Q4’19 was reversed from the provision for returns made during the previous quarter. Overall during the period gross adult use sales decreased moderately by 4%. The provisions are 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. Net revenue in Q1’20 decreased slightly to $14.5M, compared to $15.4M, in Q4’19, and increased from $5.7M in Q1’19.
Adult use sales volume in Q1’20 increased 5% to 4,196 kg from 4,009 kg equivalents sold in the prior quarter. The SQDC contributed 3,080 kg, ALGC contributed 474 kg, OCS contributed 518 kg, other provinces and private retailers contributed 124 kg.
Gross adult-use revenue per gram equivalent decreased to $4.35 in Q1’20 from $4.74 in Q4’19, reflective of the provision for sales returns and price adjustments recorded in the quarter. 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 cannabis, which commands revenue of $7.03 per gram on dried flower during the quarter. The adult-use net revenue per gram equivalent decreased to $3.24 in Q1’20 from $3.51 in Q4’19, reflecting the impact of the provision above.
Gross margin before fair value adjustments for Q1’20 was $4.6M or 31% of net revenue from sale of goods, compared to $5.1M and 33% in the prior quarter.
The Company incurred an impairment loss on inventory of $25.5M during Q1’20 compared with $16.9M in Q4’19. The impairment loss was realized on the Company’s inventory in comprised of the following; Operating expenses decreased 25% quarter over quarter to $35.1M in Q1’20, compared with $46.9M in Q4’19 as a result of a decrease in G&A expenses of 30%, marketing expenses of 35% and stock-based compensation expense of 20%, as the Company continues to reduce previous spending levels to refocus operations on becoming adjusted EBITDA positive.
Operating expenses increased from $22.0M in Q1’19, reflecting the significant increase to the scale of our operations over the last year.
Loss from operations for the quarter was ($58.5M), compared with ($60.7M) in the prior period and ($14.7M) for the comparable quarter year over year. Excluding non-cash impairment charges in Q1’20, adjusted net loss was ($33.0M) compared with ($43.7M) in Q4’19. The increase in loss year over year is attributable to the larger magnitude of the Company’s operations, the expanding scale production and sales in the period, and an impairment loss.
Adjusted EBITDA (in millions)
During Q1’20, the Company’s calculated adjusted EBITDA results were ($24.6) or 39% of the net loss in the period. This represents a 43% decrease as compared to the same period in fiscal 2019, most influenced by the increased share-based compensation and fair value adjustments on inventory sold and biological assets. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 14% from Q4’19.
The adjusted EBITDA’s gross margin remained decreased to (59%), a decrease of 6% from the same comparative period from fiscal 2019 and 7% with the previous quarter. Restructuring Costs
Unique to the period were restructuring costs incurred. These expenses are the result of the restructuring efforts as discussed in the section – Corporate Restructuring. These costs amounted to $3.7M, primarily comprised of severance and other payroll related termination costs. These expenses are deemed non-operating related as they are not result of the Company normal operating activities and therefore, have not been included in the net operating loss.
Block B
As previously disclosed on November 15, 2019, upon discovery of the licensing issue in Block B of the Company’s Niagara facility, inventory from Block B was quarantined and held back from sales. The inventory was kept on the books and although destruction was a possible outcome, the Company has reassessed any risks related to such inventory and concluded that it is cleared for sale and will not be subject to destruction. Note that Block B is now fully Licensed by Health Canada.
Financial Position As at October 31, 2019, the Company held cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $73.5M. The Company has a $65M credit facility with a syndicate of Canadian chartered banks. This consists of $50M term credit and a $15M revolving line of credit which will be used in part to finance the continuing expansion of the Gatineau campus as well as the leasehold improvements at the Belleville facility without diluting the shareholders of HEXO. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company closed a $70M private placement of 8% unsecured convertible debentures, maturing on December 5, 2022.
Operational Update
As previously announced, during the first quarter fiscal 2020, the Company is improving its cost structure and operational efficiencies. HEXO continues to drive improvements in yields and processing facilities. Operations in the suspended areas can be recommenced when required. Current annualized production run rate is approximately 90,000 kgs of dried cannabis equivalents, comprised of approx. 50% dried flower, with the balance comprised of trim, which can be used for a variety of value-added products. The Company continues to ramp up production towards over 100,000 kg per year.
In order to achieve its cost and operational efficiency goals, management is focusing on the following priorities:
Reservation of Opinion
The Company’s auditors have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the quarter ended October 31, 2019. In such review, they have expressed a reservation of opinion as it relates to an identified error related to the deferred tax liability in the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019. As described in Note 32 of the interim statements, the Company identified an error related to the deferred tax liability as at July 31, 2019 which resulted from the Company not netting a tax loss generated in one subsidiary against a deferred tax liability generated by a different subsidiary. Because these two tax positions existed in two separate entities, the Company’s original position was that they could not be offset or reduce one another. However, the two subsidiaries were amalgamated and consolidated on August 1, 2019, and on that basis the Company should have anticipated the amalgamation would result in the two tax balances reducing themselves and recognized a reduction of the deferred tax by $14.4M, leaving a deferred tax balance at July 31, 2019 of $6.0M. This error remains in the deferred tax liability in both the interim financial statements for the quarter ended October 31, 2019 and the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019. The Company will restate and refile both sets of financial statements correcting for this error.
The management’s discussion and analysis for the period and the accompanying financial statements and notes are available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on its website at www.hexocorp.com.

The company had expected to establish itself in early 2024 and had aimed to produce 150,000 tons of bioplastic annually.
Asia-Pacific is the fastest growing region in bioplastic packaging market with its large population as a contributor and its rapidly increasing industrial sector. The packed food consumption and the boom of e-commerce also gave preference to sustainable packaging due to strict regulations and subsidies provided to promote the compostable packaging. According to Department of Biotechnology, Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India, the usage of single-use plastic (SUPs) was intended to stop by December 2022. The policy of Government of India (GOI) was changed to promote the development of biodegradable plastic products instead of single-use plastic.
The method used for testing substances should be able to demonstrate biodegradability as per national and international standards and should also be interim approved and receive provisional certification of biodegradability. China having a large industrial production had signed the Paris agreement to reduce carbon footprint and oil dependency as well.
Although the National Development and Reform Commission and Ministry of Ecology and Environment had plans to reduce plastic garbage, the limited infrastructure for recycling and manufacturing biodegradable plastic came as a challenge. The Chinese Government had implemented ban on plastic recycled and prohibition of non-biodegradable single-use plastic.
- In February 2024, Balrampur Chini Mills Limited (BCML), which is a leading integrated sugar mill Kolkata-based company had announced a project with integration of ₹2,000 crore and it was going be the first industrial bioplastic plant in India. The company also stated that it had well-aligned sustainable goals to combat the climate change.
Driver
Government regulations drive the bioplastic packaging market
The major driving factor is the environmental regulations due to increasing plastic waste production which is a problem for the eco-system. The growing concern for climate change, increasing plastic pollution and landfill waste has led to the utilization of bioplastic packaging which is reliable and bio-degradable. The government policies promote the use of biodegradable and bioplastic packaging as it reduces the use of plastic and also its generation.

Dublin, Sept. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “New York Legal Cannabis Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Source (Hemp, Marijuana), By Derivatives (CBD, THC, Others), By Cultivation (Indoor Cultivation, Greenhouse Cultivation), By End-use, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 – 2030” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The New York legal cannabis market size is expected to reach USD 3.22 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 15.3% from 2024 to 2030
Factors such as the legalization of medicinal cannabis, rising consumer disposable income, increasing consumer awareness of the health benefits of cannabis, growing demand for cannabis from the pharmaceutical industry, and the approval of the U.S. Farm Bill are expected to boost market growth.
Cannabis is utilized for managing a range of ailments, including mental health issues, cancer, nausea, and pain, and for adult use purposes. The increasing prevalence of cancer is expected to significantly contribute to the increasing acceptance of medical marijuana over the forecast period. For instance, according to data published by the Government of New York, annually 116,000 New Yorkers are diagnosed with cancer.
The growing awareness among people regarding the therapeutic benefits of cannabis and the rise in cannabis certification educational and training programs fuel market growth. For instance, the travelling training program is a part of the New York State Cannabis Workforce Initiative. It’s a collaboration between Cornell University’s School of Industrial & Labor Relations and the non-profit Workforce Development Institute, which is partly funded by the state. This program has successfully educated hundreds of individuals in the fundamental aspects of the cannabis industry.
Moreover, the increase in research activities related to cannabis is driving the market growth. In August 2023, regulations for Cannabis Research Licenses were implemented. These regulations allow licensed researchers to cultivate, process, purchase, and possess cannabis for the purpose of testing its composition levels and chemical potency, studying the safety and effectiveness of cannabis as a medical treatment, conducting agricultural or genomic research, as well as carrying out clinical studies of cannabis-derived drug products.
