Notes to the Condensed interim consolidated financial statements
for the Three and six Months ended september 30, 2018 and 2017
(Expressed in CDN $000's except share amounts)
Canopy Growth Corporation ("Canopy Growth") 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".
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements ("interim financial statements") as at and for the three and six months ended September 30, 2018, and 2017, include Canopy Growth and its subsidiaries (together referred to as "the Company") and the Company's interest in other entities.
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 On October 17, 2018, the ACMPR was superseded by The Cannabis Act which regulates the production, distribution, and possession of cannabis for both medical and adult recreational access in Canada.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 including subsidiaries which operate in Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean. Through its partially owned subsidiary Canopy Rivers Corporation ("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.
Statement of compliance
The interim financial statements have been prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, except as described in Note 3 to the interim financial statements, the Company followed the same accounting policies and methods of application as those disclosed in the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").
These interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 13, 2018.
Basis of measurement
These interim financial statements have been prepared in Canadian dollars on a historical cost basis except for biological assets and certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value.
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 the 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 measurements are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
Level 3 - valuation techniques using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market inputs whenever such inputs exist.
Further information on fair value measurements is available in Notes 5 and 24.
Classification of expenses
The expenses within the condensed interim consolidated statements of operations ("statements of operations") and comprehensive loss ("statements of comprehensive loss") are presented by function. Refer to Note 20 for details of expenses by nature.
Notes to the Condensed interim consolidated financial statements
for the Three and six Months ended september 30, 2018 and 2017
(Expressed in CDN $000's except share amounts)
(a) Change in accounting policies
Effective April 1, 2018, the Company has changed its accounting policy with respect to production and fulfillment related depreciation. Prior to this change the Company expensed all depreciation and amortization costs as operating expenses. The Company now capitalizes production related depreciation and amortization to biological assets and inventory and expenses this depreciation to costs of goods sold as inventory is sold. In addition, depreciation and amortization associated with shipping and fulfillment will be recorded to cost of goods sold as incurred. Previously this depreciation and amortization was grouped with other depreciation and amortization on the statements of operations. The Company believes that the revised policy and presentation provides more relevant financial information to users of the financial statements.
The Company's amended policy is as follows:
The Company's biological assets consist of cannabis plants. 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, quality and testing costs, and production related depreciation. The Company then measures the biological assets at fair value less cost to sell up to the point of harvest, which becomes the basis for the cost of finished goods inventories after harvest. Cost to sell includes post-harvest production, shipping and fulfillment costs. The net unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in fair value less cost to sell during the period are included in the results of operations of the related period. Seeds are measured at fair value.
Inventories of harvested work-in-process and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventories of harvested cannabis are transferred from biological assets at their fair value less cost to sell up to the point of harvest, which becomes the initial deemed cost. All subsequent direct and indirect post-harvest costs are capitalized to inventory as incurred, including labour related costs, consumables, materials, packaging supplies, utilities, facilities costs, quality and testing costs, and production related depreciation. 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. Inventories for resale and supplies and consumables are valued at the lower of costs and net realizable value, with cost determined using the weighted average cost basis.
The line item "Inventory production costs expensed to cost of sales" in the statements of operations is comprised of the cost of inventories expensed in the period and the direct and indirect costs of shipping and fulfillment including labour related costs, materials, shipping costs, customs and duties, royalties, utilities, facilities costs, and shipping and fulfillment related depreciation.
The change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively. The Company has restated the comparative figures in the statements of operations and the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows ("statements of cash flows"). The following tables summarize the effects of the change described above.

(b) New or amended standards effective April 1, 2018
The Company has adopted the following new or amended IFRS standards for the interim and annual period beginning on April 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 periods or transitional adjustments required as a result of the adoption of this standard. The Company's accounting policy for revenue recognition under IFRS 15 is as follows:

(Expressed in CDN $000's except share amounts)
To determine the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized, the Company follows a 5-step process:
Revenue from the direct sale of cannabis to medical customers for a fixed price is recognized when the Company transfers control of the good to the customer upon delivery.
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments ("IFRS 9")
IFRS 9 was issued by the IASB on July 24, 2014 and replaced IAS 39. IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value, replacing the multiple rules in IAS 39. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. Financial liabilities are classified in a similar manner as under IAS 39.
Under IFRS 9, financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit and loss ["FVTPL"], transaction costs. Financial assets are subsequently measured at:
The classification is based on whether the contractual cash flow characteristics represent "solely payment of principal and interest" [the "SPPI test"] as well as the business model under which the financial assets are managed. Financial assets are required to be reclassified only when the business model under which they are managed has changed. All reclassifications are to be applied prospectively from the reclassification date.
The Company has elected to measure investments in equity instruments of AusCann, JWC, HydRx, Vapium, Good Leaf, Solo Growth and LiveWell which are included in Other financial assets on the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Financial Position ("statements of financial position"), at FVOCI on transition or initial recognition as these investments are long-term and strategic in nature, and net changes in fair value are more suited to be presented in other comprehensive income.
Debt investments are recorded at amortized cost for financial assets that are held within a business model with the objective to hold the financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the SPPI test.
The assessment of the Company's business models for managing the financial assets was made as of the date of initial application of April 1, 2018. The assessment of whether contractual cash flows on debt instruments meet the SPPI test was made based on the facts and circumstances as at the initial recognition of the financial assets.
Consistent with IAS 39, all financial liabilities held by the Company under IFRS 9, other than convertible debentures, are initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost. The convertible debenture issued by the Company in June 2018 has been designated at FVTPL upon initial recognition as permitted by IFRS 9 as the debenture contains multiple embedded derivatives.

(Expressed in CDN $000's except share amounts)
The following table summarizes the original measurement categories under IAS 39 and the new measurement categories under IFRS 9 for each class of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities:
Financial assets IAS 39 Classification IFRS 9 Classification
Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables Amortized cost
Accounts receivables Loans and receivables Amortized cost
Interest receivable Loans and receivables Amortized cost
Restricted investments Loans and receivables Amortized cost
Other financial assets Available for sale, loans and receivables and FVTPL FVOCI and FVTPL
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Other liabilities Other liabilities
Long-term debt Other liabilities Other liabilities
Convertible debentures Not applicable FVTPL
BC Tweed and Vert Mirabel put liability FVTPL FVTPL
Acquisition consideration related liabilities FVTPL FVTPL
The Company's investments in James E. Wagner Cultivation Ltd ("JWC") royalty interest, Agripharm Corporation ("Agripharm") royalty interest and Radicle Medical Marijuana Inc. ("Radicle") repayable debenture (Note 14) were classified as loans and receivables and measured at amortized cost under IAS 39. Under IFRS 9, these investments are classified and measured at FVTPL as these investments fail the SPPI test. The change in classification of these investments did not impact the carrying amounts of these investments on the transition date.
Under IFRS 9, the Company is required to apply an expected credit loss ["ECL"] model to all debt financial assets not held at FVTPL, where credit losses that are expected to transpire in futures years are provided for, irrespective of whether a loss event has occurred or not as at the balance sheet date. For trade receivables, the Company has applied the simplified approach under IFRS 9 and has calculated ECLs based on lifetime expected credit losses taking into considerations historical credit loss experience and financial factors specific to the debtors and general economic conditions. The Company has assessed the impairment of its amounts receivable using the expected credit loss model, and no difference was noted. As a result, no impairment loss has been recognized upon transition and at April 1, 2018.
(c) New and revised IFRS in issue but not yet effective
IFRS 16 Leases ("IFRS 16")
IFRS 16 was issued by the IASB in January 2016 and specifies the requirements to recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. IFRS 16 is effective for the Company for its annual period ending March 31, 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the impact of this new standard on its financial position and financial performance.
Notes to the Condensed interim consolidated financial statements

(Expressed in CDN $000's except share amounts)
Amounts receivable was comprised of:
September 30, March 31,
2018 2018
Accounts receivable $ 6,368 $ 5,863
Indirect tax receivable 24,250 15,262
Interest receivable 796 300

Total amounts receivable $ 45,807 $ 21,425
Other receivables includes $11,267 owed to the Company by a service provider in connection with the exercise of options under the Employee Stock Option Plan.
The Company's biological assets consists of seeds and cannabis plants. The continuity of biological assets for the six months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended March 31, 2018 was as follows:
September 30, March 31,
2018 2018
Balance, beginning of period $ 16,348 $ 14,725
Purchases (use) of seeds (7 ) 271
Acquisition / (disposal) of biological assets due to acquisition / disposal of consolidated entity 184 (1,430 )
Unrealized gain on changes in fair value of biological assets 68,233 100,302
Increase in biological assets due to capitalized costs 44,163 17,309
Net write-off of biological assets (15,703 ) -
Transferred to inventory upon harvest (92,498 ) (114,829 )
Balance, end of period $ 20,720 $ 16,348
Biological assets are valued in accordance with IAS 41 and are presented at their fair values less costs to sell up to the point of 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).
The valuation of biological assets is based on a market approach where fair value at the point of harvest is estimated based on future selling prices less the costs to sell at harvest. 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 September 30, 2018, on average, the biological assets were 25% complete as to the next expected harvest date, compared to a 12% average stage of completion as at March 31, 2018.

The significant unobservable inputs and their range of values are noted in the table below:
Unobservable Inputs Range Sensitivity
Estimated Yield per Plant - varies by strain and is obtained through historical growing results (trailing 6-months moving average) or grower estimate if historical results are not available. 15 grams/plant to 478 grams/plant A slight increase in the estimated yield per plant would result in a significant increase in fair value, and vice versa.
Listed Selling Price of Dry Cannabis - varies by strain and is obtained through listed selling prices or estimated future selling prices if historical results are not available. $4.80 to $12/gram A slight increase in the estimated selling price per strain would result in a significant increase in fair value, and vice versa.
