The Company values cannabis plants at cost, which approximates fair value from the date of initial clipping from mother plants until half-way through the flowering cycle of the plants. Measurement of the biological transformation of the plant at fair value less costs to sell begins in the fourth week prior to harvest and is recognized evenly until the point of harvest. The number of weeks in the growing cycle is between twelve and sixteen weeks from propagation to harvest. The Company has determined the fair value less costs to sell of cannabis to be between $2.50 and $3.00 per gram, upon harvest for greenhouse produced cannabis (May 31, 2020 – $3.00 per gram) and between $3.50 and $4.00 per gram (May 31, 2020 - $4.00 per gram), upon harvest for indoor produced cannabis. The Company has determined the fair value increment on cannabis trim to be $nil per gram (May 31, 2020 - $0.01 per gram).
The effect of the fair value less cost to sell over and above historical cost was an increase in non-cash value of biological assets and inventory of $59,150 during the three months ended August 31, 2020 (2019 - $25,153).

Aphria Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019
(Unaudited - in thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts)
The fair value of biological assets is determined using a valuation model to estimate expected harvest yield per plant applied to the estimated price per gram less processing and selling costs. Only when there is a material change from the expected fair value used for cannabis does the Company make any adjustments to the fair value used. During the period, the Company amended the fair value based on an expected lower average selling price with the release of the Company’s economy brands, which the Company is using to create demand for lower potency harvested cannabis.
In determining the fair value of biological assets, management has made the following estimates in this valuation model:
· The harvest yield is between 20 grams and 60 grams per plant;
· The selling price is between $1.50 and $6.50 per gram of cannabis;
· Processing costs include drying and curing, testing, post-harvest overhead allocation, packaging and labelling costs between $0.30 and $0.80 per gram;
· Selling costs include shipping, order fulfilment, patient acquisition and patient maintenance costs between $0.00 and $1.50 per gram;
Sales price used in the valuation of biological assets is based on the average selling price of all cannabis products and can vary based on different strains being grown as well as the proportion of sales derived from wholesale compared to retail. Selling costs vary depending on methods of selling and are considered based on the expected method of selling and the determined additional costs which would be incurred. Expected yields for the cannabis plant is also subject to a variety of factors, such as strains being grown, length of growing cycle, and space allocated for growing. Management reviews all significant inputs based on historical information obtained as well as based on planned production schedules.
Management has quantified the sensitivity of the inputs and determined the following:
· Selling price per gram – a decrease in the average selling price per gram by 5% would result in the biological asset value decreasing by $490 (May 31, 2020 - $682) and inventory decreasing by $12,639 (May 31, 2020 - $9,895)

As at August 31, 2020, the fair value of the Company’s secured convertible debentures was $5,018 (May 31, 2020 - $4,728), which includes $323 (May 31, 2020 - $216) of accrued interest.

On April 10, 2019, Aphria purchased $4,500 in unsecured convertible debentures of High Tide Inc. (“High Tide”).

In addition to the debentures, the Company received 6,000,000 warrants in High Tide as part of the purchase of the unsecured convertible debentures (Note 12).
As at August 31, 2020, the fair value of the unsecured convertible debentures was $3,957 (May 31, 2020 - $3,898), which resulted in a fair value gain (loss) for the three months ended August 31, 2020 of $59 (2019 - $78).
Convertible notes receivable
The unrealized gain (loss) on convertible notes receivable recognized in the results of operations amounts to $(758) for the three months ended August 31, 2020 (2019 - $1,155).

The unsecured convertible debentures were entered into in April 2019, in the principal amount of $350,000 USD, are due in five years from issuance (the “Notes”). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.25% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2019. The Notes are an unsecured obligation and ranked senior in right of payment to all indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes. The Notes will rank equal in right of payment with all liabilities that are not subordinated. The Notes are effectively junior to any secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.
Holders of the Notes may convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1 USD principal amount, at their option at any time between December 1, 2023 to the maturity date. The initial conversion rate for the Notes will be 106.5644 common shares of Aphria per $1 USD principal amount of Notes, which will be settled in cash, common shares of Aphria or a combination thereof, at Aphria’s election. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $9.38 per common share, subject to adjustments in certain events. In addition, holders of the Notes may convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1 USD principal amount, at their option at any time preceding December 1, 2023, if:
(a) the last reported sales price of the common shares for at least 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;
(b) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1 USD principal amount of the Notes for each trading day of the measurement period is less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common shares and the conversion rate on each such trading day;
(c) the Company calls any or all of the Notes for redemption or;
(d) upon occurrence of specified corporate event.

Financial instruments
The Company has classified its financial instruments as described in Note 3 of the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2020.
The carrying values of accounts receivable, prepaids and other current assets, bank indebtedness and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short periods to maturity.
The Company’s long-term debt of $26,340 is subject to fixed interest rates. The Company’s long-term debt is valued based on discounting the future cash outflows associated with the long-term debt. The discount rate is based on the incremental premium above market rates for Government of Canada securities of similar duration. In each period thereafter, the incremental premium is held constant while the Government of Canada security is based on the then current market value to derive the discount rate. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt in repayment as at August 31, 2020 was $26,112.

Fair value hierarchy
Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements. Cash and cash equivalents are Level 1. The hierarchy is summarized as follows:
Level 1 | quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities |
Level 2 | inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) from observable market data |
Level 3 | inputs for assets and liabilities not based upon observable market data |

Financial risk management
The Company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: credit; liquidity; currency rate; and, interest rate price.
(a) | Credit risk |
The maximum credit exposure at August 31, 2020 is the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaids and other current assets, promissory notes receivable and convertible notes receivable. All cash and cash equivalents are placed with major financial institutions.
Total | 0-30 days | 31-60 days | 61-90 days | 90+ days | |
Trade receivables | 82,532 | 70,456 | 9,195 | 77 | 2,804 |
86% | 11% | 0% | 3% |
(b) | Liquidity risk |
As at August 31, 2020, the Company’s financial liabilities consist of bank indebtedness and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which have contractual maturity dates within one-year, long-term debt, and convertible debentures which have contractual maturities over the next five years.
Aphria maintains a debt service charge covenant on certain loans secured by its Aphria One facilities that is measured at year-end only. The Company believes that it has sufficient operating room with respect to its financial covenants for the next fiscal year and does not anticipate being in breach of any of its financial covenants.
The Company manages its liquidity risk by reviewing its capital requirements on an ongoing basis. Based on the Company’s working capital position at August 31, 2020, management regards liquidity risk to be low.
(c) | Currency rate risk |
As at August 31, 2020, a portion of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities held in United States Dollars (“USD”) and Euros consist of cash and cash equivalents, convertible notes receivable, and long-term investments. The Company’s objective in managing its foreign currency risk is to minimize its net exposure to foreign currency cash flows by transacting, to the greatest extent possible, with third parties in the functional currency. The Company is exposed to currency rate risk in other comprehensive income, relating to foreign subsidiaries which operate in a foreign currency. The Company does not currently use foreign exchange contracts to hedge its exposure of its foreign currency cash flows as management has determined that this risk is not significant at this point in time.
The Company is exposed to unrealized foreign exchange risk through its cash and cash equivalents. As at August 31, 2020, approximately $275,000 USD ($360,000 CAD) of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents was in United States dollars. A 1% change in the foreign exchange rate would result in an unrealized gain or loss of approximately $3,500.
(d) | Interest rate price risk |
The Company manages interest rate risk by restricting the type of investments and varying the terms of maturity and issuers of marketable securities. Varying the terms to maturity reduces the sensitivity of the portfolio to the impact of interest rate fluctuations.
(e) | Capital management |
The Company’s objectives when managing its capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, to meet its capital expenditures for its continued operations, and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the cost of capital within a framework of acceptable risk. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, issue new debt, or acquire or dispose of assets. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There have been no changes to the Company’s capital management approach in the year. The Company considers its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as capital.
29. | Commitments and contingencies |
The Company has committed purchase orders outstanding at August 31, 2020 related to capital asset expansion of $14,058, all of which are expected to be paid within the next year.
The following table presents the future undiscounted payment associated with capital asset expansion and lease liabilities as of August 31, 2020:

From time to time, the Company and/or its subsidiaries may become defendants in legal actions arising out of the ordinary course and conduct of its business.
As of August 31, 2020, the Company was served statements of claims in class action lawsuits against the Company and certain of its officers and former officers. These claims relate to alleged misconduct in connection with the Company’s acquisitions of LATAM Holdings Inc. ("LATAM") and Nuuvera Inc., and the Company’s June 2018 securities offering. At the present time, the representative claimants have been identified and selected in both the U.S. and Canada. The U.S. claims include alleged violations of Section 10(b) of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Rule 10b-5 under the Exchange Act and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. The Canadian claims include alleged statutory and common law misrepresentation and oppression. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in each of these actions. With respect to the cases commenced in the U.S., the Company pursued a motion to dismiss the U.S. claim. The Company’s motion was denied and the claim was maintained against the Company and certain of its former and current senior officers. In the U.S. action, the Company is self-insured for the costs associated with any award or damages arising from such actions and has entered into indemnity agreements with each of the directors and officers and, subject to certain exemptions, will cover any costs incurred by them in connection with any of the class action claims. Canadian insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover any judgments against the Company. As at August 31, 2020, the Company has not recorded any uninsured amount related to this contingency.
As of July 20, 2020, a proposed class action has been commenced against a number of Canadian licensed producers including the Company and its subsidiary, Broken Coast (collectively, the “Defendants”) by Lisa Marie Langevin (the “Plaintiff”) on behalf of all persons in Canada who purchased cannabis products that were manufactured, sold, promoted, or distributed by the Defendants and consumed prior to the labelled expiry date of such products on or after June 16, 2010, if such products were used for medicinal purposes and on or after October 17, 2018, if such products were used for recreational purposes (the “Proposed Class”). The Plaintiff specifically alleges that (i) the Defendants marketed medicinal and recreational cannabis products with an advertised content of TCH and CBD that was “drastically different” (higher and lower percentages) from the actual amount in the cannabis products and (ii) The Plaintiff suggests that the plastic bottles or caps used to store the cannabis products may have absorbed or degraded the THC or CBD content. The Plaintiff seeks recovery of the money the Proposed Class spent on the Defendants’ products that did not contain what they were advertised to contain and compensatory damages for those who suffered physical or mental injuries as a result of the Defendants’ mislabelling of the products. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in each of these actions. Canadian insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover any judgments against the Company. As at August 31, 2020, the Company has not recorded any uninsured amount related to this contingency.

30. | Segment reporting |
Information reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance focuses on the nature of the operations. The Company operates in three segments. 1) cannabis operations, which encompasses the production, distribution and sale of both medical and adult-use cannabis, 2) distribution operations, which encompasses the purchase and resale of products to customers. The distribution operations are carried out through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries ABP, FL Group and CC Pharma, and 3) businesses under development which encompass operations in which the Company has not received final licensing or has not commenced commercial sales from operations. Factors considered in determining the operating segments include the Company’s business activities, the management structure directly accountable to the CODM, availability of discrete financial information and strategic priorities within the organizational structure.
