Management Commentary
"Our successful first full quarter with recreational sales in Canada reinforces our long held strategy of making meaningful investments early in order to secure market share," said Bruce Linton, Chairman & Co-CEO, Canopy Growth. "With a strong cash position, we added strategic assets and IP through acquisitions to accelerate the sophistication of our inputs with ebbu, and our consumer-facing outputs with Storz and Bickel."
"The Canadian recreational cannabis market will be dominated in the long term by businesses delivering excellent products and consumer experiences. Sales from the first wave of products and retail environments launched in the third quarter demonstrate that we are capturing consumers' attention."
Concluded Linton, "We have developed an unprecedented and unparalleled fully integrated platform at scale and will continue to expand by making strategic production investments in regions with federally permissible paths to market for our cannabis and hemp offerings. We believe this strategy will develop a significant and sustained return on invested capital over the long-term."
Product & Production Summary
Oils, including the Company's Softgel capsules, accounted for 33% of product revenue (reported net revenue excluding other revenue) in the three months ended December 31, 2018, up from 23% of product revenue in the same period last year, demonstrating an increased demand for value-added formats. During the third quarter of fiscal 2019, approximately 30% and 42% of recreational and medical sales, respectively, were comprised of oils, including Softgel capsules.
To position Canopy Growth to supply the significant quantities of cannabis oil that the Company expects will be required to meet the needs of future value added products including vape pens and beverages, the Company took steps during the quarter to augment its owned current and planned extraction capacity by entering into extraction supply related agreements with Valens GroWorks Corp., Medipharm Labs Corp., and POS Holdings Inc. ("POS Holdings"). In addition, during the quarter, the Company completed the terms of a financing related agreement with POS Holdings to lock in dedicated extraction support to Canopy Growth.
In the transition from a "medical marijuana" business to a business producing clinically proven cannabinoid therapies, the Company experienced a decline in its Canadian medical market demand in the quarter. The decline may be attributed to the initial adjustment to the available legal recreational market which patients can also access. Additionally, medical revenues reflected a migration to a tighter medical product range as well as elevating and re-focusing Spectrum Cannabis to a more pure medical/pharma focused brand proposition.
International medical revenues in the three months ended December 31, 2018, consisting primarily of sales in Germany, increased by 170 percent over the same quarter in the prior year to $2.7 million.
Other revenue for the quarter was $7.5 million, coming from partner clinic revenue, merchandise sales, and device sales by the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Storz & Bickel following the close of its acquisition on December 6, 2018.
Canadian Regulated Adult Use Market – Cannabis Sales
The Company placed significant focus on shipping core products, backed by deep inventory levels, into physical retail store networks across the country. In the face of strong product demand and overall sector supply shortages, the inventory levels have served to improve the availability of the Company's products on retail store shelves. Also, at the end of the quarter, the Company began shipping value-added Softgel capsules and pre-rolled joint products in recreational channels across the country.
Canadian Regulated Adult Use Market – Retail Footprint
Canopy Growth finalized its acquisition of HIKU during the second quarter, adding the Tokyo Smoke retail channel to complement its Tweed banner stores. Offering two distinct customer experiences will allow the Company to appeal to various consumer demographics without saturating any single segment. Tokyo Smoke operates four corporate owned retail cannabis stores and an e-commerce platform in Manitoba. Tweed retail now has 10 corporate owned locations selling cannabis across Newfoundland & Labrador and Manitoba, plus a licensed store in Saskatchewan and an e-commerce presence in Manitoba and Nunavut. The Company plans to add, in provinces with private retail models, 20 additional Tweed stores and 20 additional Tokyo Smoke stores. In the province of Ontario, the company is exploring partnership opportunities to ensure consumers in that market can experience the distinct Tweed and Tokyo Smoke retail experiences while working within the provincial framework.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2019 Gross Margin1 Summary
The Company is in the final stages of completing its Canadian production and extraction platform. The cost of sales includes the impact of operating costs of cannabis cultivation subsidiaries not fully commissioned, including our Delta greenhouse and a number of zones at the Aldergrove greenhouse facility, both going through fit-ups, as well as Edmonton and Fredericton, also in construction during the quarter. Vert Mirabel also initiated its first pilot grow cycle, which combined with the other non-producing assets to result in higher non-recurring overheads. Cost of sales also included costs associated with developing edible and beverage products for which markets will be available later in calendar 2019. Excluding the costs associated with these non-cultivating subsidiaries totaling approximately $13.1 million and absorbing medical excise taxes of $2.1 million in order to ease the burden imposed on patients, the gross margin2 before the fair value impacts in cost of sales and other inventory charges would have been $33.5 million or 40% of sales. Gross margin was also impacted by lower average recreational business to business prices, as compared to historic direct to consumer medical sales.
Greenhouse facilities operate in zones. Aldergrove, Delta and Mirabel have been planted in a manner that allows for ongoing harvests, rather than one large harvest, to increase the utilization of assets such as post harvest processes and provide for a steady supply of product going forward. The Aldergrove greenhouse began its third harvest earlier in the current quarter and the Delta facility is expected to begin its next harvest later in the current quarter.
The Company believes gross margins will expand in the coming quarters when all of its cultivation facilities reach full utilization and cycle through initial pilot harvests to be high performing assets. In addition, margins are expected to expand when edibles and beverages are introduced later in calendar 2019 with lower costs of active ingredients per serving.

Businesses built on top quality product and customer service require upfront investment. Management believes foundational investment is required to build the Company's significant and diversified production platform, flexible distribution capability, world-leading brands, retail capabilities, medical and recreational sales and customer support capabilities. Canopy Growth also requires robust information technology infrastructure, international business development and operations. These investments directly impacted profitability in the quarter but represent prudent long term investments to strengthen the Company's global leadership position. Both sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses were up significantly relative to the same period last year. Management expects these expenses to level off in the near term in its Canadian operations.
The Company's Applied Science team is researching a variety of intellectual property opportunities including those relating to growth patterns under different environmental scenarios and the genetics of various strains, the development of patent pending technology related to equipment that the Company has engineered specifically for the cannabis industry to be incorporated in Canopy Growth's operations and ongoing R&D work being performed in the Company's Dealers License Area that is expected to lead to the development of new cannabis-based product form factors that will enter the market when permitted. With the acquisition of Canopy Health Innovations, the additional scope of R&D being undertaken and additional resourcing necessary, R&D expenses were up significantly over the same period last year. Applied Science expenses will continue to increase as the Company aggressively pursues IP. Advancing scientific understanding through plant science, technological applications, and clinical trials is the fastest path to developing sustainable high margin products.
Acquisition-related expenses in the third quarter period ended December 31, 2018 were primarily related to the acquisitions of the assets of ebbu Inc. and Storz & Bickel and the financing of POS Holdings. In addition, costs were incurred due to the ongoing evaluation of potential acquisitions performed during the period and increased legal, accounting and strategic business consulting services required to complete or evaluate the transactions. The Company is likely to acquire additional strategic assets in the future as it pursues its business strategy.
In respect of the recorded stock compensation expense, in practice, all employees of the Company receive stock options as part of their compensation package. Acquisition-related milestone payments based on future performance and related criteria have been treated as stock compensation expense instead of being allocated to the purchase price.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2019 Adjusted EBITDA Summary (Non-GAAP measure)2
Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter fiscal 2019 amounted to a loss of $75.1 million compared to a loss of $5.7 million in the same period last year.
Year-to-date, Adjusted EBITDA amounted to a loss of $69.0 million compared to a loss of $14.4 million in the same period last year.
The Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled and explained in the Management's Discussion & Analysis under "Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP Measure)" a copy of which will be filed on SEDAR and EDGAR after financial markets close today. The Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled in a table elsewhere in this press release.
Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2019 Other Income and Net Earnings Summary
Other income of $235.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily made up of fair value changes on financial assets and financial liabilities. The amount includes a fair value gain of $185.8 million arising from the decrease in the fair value of the senior convertible notes from the end of the second quarter to the end of the third quarter and a fair value gain of $36.4 million on financial assets, principally the TerrAscend and Slang warrants.
The Company also had interest income of $18.6 million on cash and marketable securities. This income was partly offset by a loss of $6.3 million as a result of the TerrAscend restructuring which resulted in the exchange of the TerrAscend shares and warrants for the non-voting, non-participating exchangeable shares.
The Company recorded an income tax expense of $1.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018. In the comparative period last year, the Company recorded income tax expense of $7.6 million.
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $74.9 million compared to a net income of $11.0 million in the comparative period last year.
Other income of $63.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 is primarily made up of fair value changes on financial assets and financial liabilities, and a gain on the acquisition of the Company's unowned interest in CHI.
The Company recorded an income tax recovery of $1.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2018. In the comparative period last year, the Company recorded income tax expense of $9.6 million.
Net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 was $346.7 million compared to net income of $227 thousand in the comparative period last year.
Update on Intellectual Property Development
During the third quarter, Canopy Animal Health ("CAH") completed certain pre-clinical studies related to the treatment of anxiety in companion animals using CBD. In addition, CAH completed certain cannabis consumption safety trials which produced data critical to validating the safety of cannabis-based therapeutic products for animals.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Canopy Health Innovations began Phase IIb "in‑human" clinical trials to evaluate the use of medical cannabis in the treatment of insomnia. The trials are being conducted in collaboration with a leading Canadian research institution.
During the quarter, the Company acquired the assets, including over 40 cannabis-related patent applications filed representing over 1,500 invenctions, of Colorado-based hemp researcher, ebbu. Intellectual property and R&D advancements achieved by ebbu's team apply directly to Canopy Growth's hemp and THC-rich cannabis genetic breeding program. The Company believes applying ebbu's IP has the potential to reduce the cost of CBD production. In addition, ebbu's IP portfolio will contribute to the clinical formulations program being executed by Canopy Health Innovations.
The Company's Intellectual Property portfolio includes 32 issued patents and over 140 patent applications covering hardware, product formulation, genetics, production innovation and medical treatments.
Update on Branding and Market Activities
The Company adheres to a disciplined approach to portfolio expansion as it continues to identify new market opportunities by identifying the needs that brands could satisfy for adults in the legalized cannabis market and assessing both the economic appeal of meeting these needs and their fit with the positioning of existing brands. Canopy Growth has built a portfolio of belief-led and purpose-driven brands, with authentic origin stories and distinct points of view on the world, spanning both local and global provenance.
The Company brought Tweed, the Company's core brand, to the recreational market. As part of the national launch strategy, Tweed has had a strong focus on building awareness through exclusive media partnerships, experiential activations, and proprietary responsibility programs like the "Don't Drive High" program undertaken in collaboration with Uber & MADD Canada. The focus to engage and educate consumers across the country both pre and post-launch, along with Tweed's retail store network has resulted in Tweed securing aided awareness of 20% amongst cannabis consumers and intenders. In addition to its core consumer brand, Tweed, Canadian adults also saw the successful recreational launch of Tokyo Smoke and DOJA, as well as partner brands LBS and DNA Genetics.
During the quarter, Canopy Growth also launched new and improved product offerings like oral cannabis sprays and pre-rolled joints made by our custom-built, proprietary automated cannabis joint rolling machines right in the heart of our Smiths Falls headquarters. The Company also unveiled its one-of-a-kind custom packaging - a unique and proprietary child-resistant, air-tight tin. Canopy Growth's strategic approach to supply and distribution allowed the Company to provide Canadian adults from coast-to-coast with a diverse offering of high-quality cannabis products.
The Company is also developing product line extensions and format-specific brands for value-added product categories including vape, beverage and other products that are expected to be permitted for sale in the fourth quarter of calendar 2019.
Investing to Capitalize on Hemp and CBD Product Opportunities
The Company has built on decades of experience of its world-class hemp team to develop proprietary and patent-pending technological solutions to optimize the speed and efficiency of harvest, post-harvest, and storage processes required to run field-scale hemp operations. In the third quarter, Canopy Growth's hemp division harvested thousands of acres of CBD-rich hemp genetics in Saskatchewan. Once extracted, the Company expects a yield of thousands of kilograms of hemp-derived CBD.
In the United States, the Agricultural and Nutrition Act, H.R. 2 (the "Farm Bill") passed on December 20, 2018. The passage of the Farm Bill,which included the language of the Hemp Farming Act of 2018, expands opportunities related to the cultivation and processing of Hemp to produce CBD-based products in the United States. On January 14, 2019, Canopy Growth announced that it had been granted a hemp processing and production license by New York State and its commitment to invest in the state of New York to establish a Hemp Industrial Park. The Hemp Industrial Park will be home to large-scale production capabilities focused on hemp extraction and product manufacturing to serve the New York state market as well as markets around the United States as permitted by regulations. Canopy Growth intends to invest between $100 million USD and $150 million USD in its New York operations. Canopy Growth is developing a broad portfolio of CBD product offerings, to be broadly distributed across multiple channels, with a view to establishing category leadership in each CBD vertical market. The Company will look to leverage strategic acquisitions and partners to accelerate growth in the CBD consumer product market in the United States.
CFO Transition
Canopy Growth's EVP & Chief Financial Officer Tim Saunders has informed the Company and its Board of Directors of his decision to retire as CFO in mid to late calendar 2019. Tim will continue to serve as CFO until his successor has transitioned into the role. The search for Tim's replacement is already in process, with candidates identified, and the Company expects to announce his successor in the next few months. Following the transition, Tim will continue to serve the executive team and Board of Directors of Canopy Growth as a strategic advisor in areas of mergers and acquisitions, corporate financing, and business transformation. The Board of Directors, co-CEOs Bruce Linton and Mark Zekulin, along with the whole Canopy family, thank Tim for his dedication and leadership. Having championed the financial health of the Company through an aggressive phase of M&A growth, multiple financing rounds, and historic listings on the TSX and NYSE, both firsts for cannabis companies, Tim's mark on Canopy Growth is permanent and sincerely appreciated.
