Notes to the Amended and Restated Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2021 and 2020

Unaudited - Expressed in United States Dollars, unless otherwise indicated

(together with its subsidiaries, “GRIN” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries. The registered office of GRIN is located at 340 Richmond Street West, Toronto, Ontario, M5V 1X2.

2.Basis of Presentation

 

Statement of Compliance and Going Concern

 

The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business as they become due.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, but not limited to, its ability to raise financing necessary to discharge its liabilities as they become due and generate positive cash flows from operations. For the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $915,000, and as of that date, the Company’s accumulated deficit was approximately $20.3 million, and its working capital deficit was approximately $1.9 million. These conditions have resulted in material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and to meet its obligations will be dependent upon successful sales of product and generating positive cash flows from operations as well as obtaining suitable financing. The accompanying Financial Statements do not reflect any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the going concern assumption is not used, then the adjustments required to report the Company’s assets and liabilities at liquidation values could be material to these Financial Statements.

 

These Financial Statements do not include all disclosures required by IFRS for annual audited consolidated financial statements and accordingly should be read in conjunction with our annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2020. These unaudited condensed interim financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on April 16, 2021 (“Financial Statement Date”).

For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2021 and 2020

Basis of Measurement

 

These Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments and biological assets, which are measured at fair value, as described herein.

 

Functional and Presentation Currency

 

The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar and the functional currency of its subsidiaries is the United States (“U.S.”) dollar. These Financial Statements are presented in U.S. dollars.

 

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency using exchange rates in effect at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. All exchange gains and losses are included in the statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

 

For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company are expressed in U.S. Dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuated significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange differences arising, if any, are recognized in other comprehensive loss and reported as currency translation reserve in shareholders’ equity.

 

Foreign exchange gains or losses arising from a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation, the settlement of which is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future and which, in substance, is considered to form part of the net investment in the foreign operation, are recognized in other comprehensive loss.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The subsidiaries are those companies controlled by the Company, as the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiaries and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiaries by way of its ownership and rights pertaining to the subsidiaries. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in these Financial Statements from the date that control commences until the date control ceases. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Restatement of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The Company has restated its consolidated statement of financial position as at January 31, 2021; its consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss, consolidated statement of cash flows, and consolidated statement of changes in equity for the three months ended January 31, 2021.

 

As part of a review of its condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Company determined the following restatements.

Estimation Uncertainty due to COVID-19

 

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus) to be a pandemic, which has had a significant impact on businesses through the restrictions put in place by the federal, state, provincial and municipal governments regarding travel, business operations and isolation/quarantine orders in Canada and the United States. Government measures imposed to limit the spread of COVID-19 did not have a material impact on the Company’s operations during the three months ended January 31, 2021, and the Company has not observed any material impairments, or significant changes in the fair value of its assets as a result of COVID-19.

 

At this time, it is unknown the extent of the impact the COVID-19 outbreak may have on the Company as this will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and that cannot be predicted with confidence. These uncertainties arise from the inability to predict the duration of the outbreak, including the duration of travel restrictions, business closures or disruptions, and quarantine/isolation measures that are currently, or may be put in place by Canada, the United States and other countries to fight the virus. While the extent of the impact is unknown, it remains possible that this outbreak may cause reduced customer demand, supply chain disruptions, staff shortages, and increased government regulations, all of which may negatively impact the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. The Company will continue to evaluate the situation with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic as it develops and will implement any such changes to its business as may deemed appropriate to mitigate any potential impacts to its business.

3.Significant Accounting Policies and Significant Judgements

 

The preparation of these Financial Statements requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses. Areas that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2020. The accounting policies applied in these Financial Statements are consistent with those used in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2020.

 

4.Biological Assets

 

Biological assets consist of cannabis plants, which reflect measurement a fair value less costs to sell (“FVLCTS”). Changes in the carrying amounts of biological assets for the three months ended January 31, 2021 are as follows:

 

   January 31,
2021
   October 31,
2020
 
Beginning balance  $250,690   $156,589 
Purchased cannabis plants   185,059    724,878 
Allocation of operational overhead   243,194    1,130,712 
Change in FVLCTS due to biological transformation   (186,806)   1,515,492 
Transferred to inventory upon harvest   (271,156)   (3,276,981)
Ending balance  $220,981   $250,690 

 

FVLCTS is determined using a model which estimates the expected harvest yield for plants currently being cultivated, and then adjusts that amount for the expected selling price and also for any additional costs to be incurred, such as post-harvest costs.

 

The following significant unobservable inputs, all of which are classified as level 3 on the fair value hierarchy, were used by management as part of this model:

 

-Expected costs required to grow the cannabis up to the point of harvest

 

-Estimated selling price per pound

 

-Expected yield from the cannabis plants

 

-Estimated stage of growth – The Company applied a weighted average number of days out of the 60-day growing cycle that biological assets have reached as of the measurement date based on historical evidence. The Company assigns fair value according to the stage of growth and estimated costs to complete cultivation.

7.Other Investment

 

On February 6, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for an option to acquire a 60% controlling interest (the “Option”) of a fully-licensed Michigan based operator, Golden Harvests, LLC (“Golden Harvests”). In addition to the payments described below, the Company must receive certain regulatory approvals in order to exercise the Option. Subsequent to January 31, 2021, the Option was terminated, and a materially similar new option agreement was signed between Canopy Management LLC (“Canopy”) and Golden Harvests (the “New Option”). Under the Option, the Company agreed to pay $810,000 in cash and issue 800,000 common shares of the Company under the following schedule:

 

7.1Payment of $150,000 within five days of signing the Option and the issuance of 200,000 common shares of the Company within 60 days after signing the Option (during the year ended October 31, 2020, the cash amount of $150,000 was paid and 200,000 common shares were issued with a fair value of $12,812).

 

7.2Payment of $200,000 and the issuance of 200,000 common shares of the Company on the sixth-month anniversary of signing the Option. The Company paid $25,000 and issued 25,000 shares (Note 13.3) to extend this payment for six-months. Subsequent to January 31, 2021, under the New Option, a cash payment of $100,000 was made, and a 12-month note payable for $100,000 was issued to fulfill the $200,000 payment. The note payable bears interest at $2,000 per month.

 

7.3Payment of $260,000 and the issuance of 200,000 common shares of the Company on the twelve-month anniversary of signing the Option. The Company could elect to extend the due date of this tranche of the purchase consideration for an additional six months by payment of $25,000 and issuance of 25,000 shares.

 

7.4Payment of $200,000 and the issuance of 200,000 common shares of the Company due upon exercise of the Option, pending Municipal and State regulatory approval.

 

The Company has a contract to provide operations management services to Golden Harvests. Under this agreement, during the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Company earned revenues of $176,361 (2020 - $Nil) and costs for those revenues were $84,153 (2020 – $Nil).

 

The aggregate invested into Golden Harvests under the Option, as at January 31, 2021, included the following:

 

Investment  January 31,
2021

Cash payments against the Option   -    175,000 
Share payments against Option   2,103    12,812 
Ending balance  $189,915   $187,812 

 

Subsequent to January 31, 2021, and concurrent with the timing of the New Option, the Company obtained an option to acquire an 87% membership interest in Canopy (the “Canopy Option”) from GRIN’s CEO, who is the majority owner of Canopy and who has a fiduciary responsibility to the Company. Exercise of the Canopy Option will ultimately provide identical economic rights as the Company originally had from the Option. In order to exercise the Canopy Option, the Company must: (1) make payments to Canopy, described below, such that Canopy can fulfill the option payments required for Canopy to acquire Golden Harvests under the New Option, and (2) for the Company to have all licensing and other regulatory or governmental approvals from the state of Michigan necessary to operate, or to own an equity interest in an entity that operates, a cannabis business in the state of Michigan.

11.5Debt issuance by GR Michigan, LLC

 

On March 20, 2020, debt with a principal amount of $600,000 was received under a secured debt investment of $600,000 (the “Michigan Debt”). The Michigan Debt carries a two-year term, with monthly payments of principal commencing June 15, 2020, and with payments calculated at 1% of cash sales receipts of Golden Harvests (Note 7). Once the principal is repaid, each investor will receive a monthly royalty of 1% per $100,000 invested based upon cash sales receipts of Golden Harvests (see Note 7) (the “Royalty”). The Royalty commences on the date that repayments equal to principal have been made, and continues for a period of two years. The Royalty maximum is two times the amount of principal invested, and the Royalty minimum is equal to the principal loaned; the Company expects to pay the Royalty maximum by July 2023. The Company has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the Royalty from any lender by paying an amount equal to the original principal invested by such lender. The debt is reported at the carrying value of the probability-weighted estimated future cash flows of all payments under the Michigan Debt agreement at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest accreted during the three months ended January 31, 2021 was $113,107 (year ended October 31, 2020 - $260,940), calculated using an effective interest rate of approximately 73%. During the three months ended January 31, 2021 $62,197 was repaid against this debt (year ended October 31, 2020 - $75,126).

 

Principal amounts of the Michigan Debt of $50,000 and $100,000 (a total of $150,000), were loaned by officers of the Company. Principal of $150,000 was loaned by a director of the Company.

19.3Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will have difficulties in paying its financial liabilities.

 

The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when they become due. At January 31, 2021, the Company’s working capital accounts were as follows:

 

   January 31,
2021
   October 31,

Total current assets   2,788,363    1,834,775 
Current liabilities   4,714,398    1,799,104 
Working capital (deficit)  $(1,926,035)  $35,671 

 

The contractual maturities of the Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debt, leases, unearned revenue, and derivative liabilities occur over the next three years as follows, excluding the redemption liabilities of $375,000, which do not have a scheduled maturity, and derivative liabilities of $930,195, which are not cash-settled:

19.4Fair Values

 

The carrying amounts for the Company’s cash, accounts receivable, prepaid and other assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, current portions of debt and debentures payable, unearned revenue, and interest payable approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these items.

 

19.5Fair Value Hierarchy

 

A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair valued for both financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The Company has an established framework, which includes team members who have overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values. When measuring the fair value of an asset or liability, the Company uses observable market data as far as possible. The Company regularly assesses significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows:

 

Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

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

 

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
