Forward Looking Statements

 

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “Village Farms”, “Village Farms International”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” and similar references refer to Village Farms International, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries, and the term “Common Shares” refers to our common shares, no par value. Our financial information is presented in U.S. dollars and all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “$” means U.S. dollars and all references to “C$” means Canadian dollars.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and is subject to the safe harbor created by those sections. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q also contains "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. We refer to such forward-looking statements and forward-looking information collectively as "forward-looking statements". Forward-looking statements may relate to the Company's future outlook or financial position and anticipated events or results and may include statements regarding the financial position, business strategy, budgets, expansion plans, litigation, projected production, projected costs, capital expenditures, financial results, taxes, plans and objectives of or involving the Company. Particularly, statements regarding future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities for the Company, the greenhouse vegetable or produce industry, the cannabis industry and market and our energy segment are forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking information can be identified by such terms as "can", "outlook", "may", "might", "will", "could", "should", "would", "occur", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "intend", "try", "estimate", "predict", "potential", "continue", "likely", "schedule", "objectives", or the negative or grammatical variation thereof or other similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to risks that may include, but are not limited to: our limited operating history in the cannabis and cannabinoids industry, including that of Pure Sunfarms, Inc. (“Pure Sunfarms”), Rose LifeScience Inc. (“Rose” or “Rose LifeScience”) and Balanced Health Botanicals, LLC (“Balanced Health”); the limited operational history of the Delta RNG Project in our energy segment; the legal status of the cannabis business of Pure Sunfarms and Rose and the hemp business of Balanced Health and uncertainty regarding the legality and regulatory status of cannabis in the United States; risks relating to the integration of Balanced Health and Rose into our consolidated business; risks relating to obtaining additional financing on acceptable terms, including our dependence upon credit facilities and dilutive transactions; potential difficulties in achieving and/or maintaining profitability; variability of product pricing; risks inherent in the cannabis, hemp, CBD, cannabinoids, and agricultural businesses; our market position and competitive position; our ability to leverage current business relationships for future business involving hemp and cannabinoids; the ability of Pure Sunfarms and Rose to cultivate and distribute cannabis in Canada; existing and new governmental regulations, including risks related to regulatory compliance and regarding obtaining and maintaining licenses required under the Cannabis Act (Canada), the Criminal Code and other Acts, S.C. 2018, C. 16 (Canada) for its Canadian operational facilities, and changes in our regulatory requirements; legal and operational risks relating to expected conversion of our greenhouses to cannabis production in Canada and in the United States; risks related to rules and regulations at the U.S. Federal (Food and Drug Administration and United States Department of Agriculture), state and municipal levels with respect to produce and hemp, cannabidiol-based products commercialization; retail consolidation, technological advances and other forms of competition; transportation disruptions; product liability and other potential litigation; retention of key executives; labor issues; uninsured and underinsured losses; vulnerability to rising energy costs; inflationary effects on costs of cultivation and transportation; recessionary effects on demand of our products; environmental, health and safety risks, foreign exchange exposure, risks associated with cross-border trade; difficulties in managing our growth; restrictive covenants under our credit facilities; natural catastrophes; rising interest rates; and tax risks.

The Company has based these forward-looking statements on factors and assumptions about future events and financial trends that it believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based upon assumptions that management believes are reasonable based on information currently available to management, there can be no assurance that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements necessarily involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company's control, which may cause the Company's or the industry's actual results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities in future periods to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things, the factors contained in the Company's filings with securities regulators, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K.

When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on these statements, as forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties and should not be read as guarantees of future results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities. The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (our "Annual Report on Form 10-K"). This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements about our plans and expectations of what may happen in the future. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and our actual results could differ materially from the results anticipated by our forward-looking statements. We encourage you to review the risks and uncertainties described in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or implied by our forward-looking statements contained in this report. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this management’s discussion and analysis, and we do not intend, and do not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Village Farms International, Inc. (“VFF”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “Village Farms”, “we” “us” or “our”) is a corporation existing under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries are Village Farms Canada LP ("VFCLP"), Village Farms LP ("VFLP"), Pure Sunfarms Corp. (“Pure Sunfarms” or "PSF"), Balanced Health Botanicals, LLC (“Balanced Health”), Rose LifeScience Inc. ("Rose LifeScience” or “Rose”), and VF Clean Energy, Inc. (“VFCE”).

The Company’s vision is to be recognized as an international leader in consumer products developed from plants, whereby we produce and market value-added products that are consistently preferred by consumers. To do so, we leverage decades of cultivation expertise, investment, and experience in fresh produce into branded and wholesale cannabis products within markets with legally permissible opportunities.

In Canada, we converted two produce facilities to grow cannabis for the Canadian legal adult use (recreational) market. Our focus for our Canadian Cannabis segment is to produce high quality cannabis, leveraging our low-cost production to provide preferred products at an attractive price that address the preferred consumer segments in the market. This market positioning, combined with our cultivation expertise, has enabled us to evolve into the second best-selling producer nationally and one of the few Canadian LPs with consistently strong operating results.

Additionally, through organic growth, exports and/or acquisitions, we have a strategy to participate in other international markets where cannabis attains legal status. In September 2021, our Canadian Cannabis business began exporting cannabis products to Australia for that country’s medical market. In March 2022, our Canadian Cannabis business received European Union Good Manufacturing Practice (“EU GMP”) certification for Pure Sunfarms’ 1.1 million square foot Delta 3 cannabis facility located in Delta, British Columbia (“B.C.”) which permits Pure Sunfarms to export EU GMP-certified medical cannabis to importers and distributors in international markets that require EU GMP certification. In late 2022, Pure Sunfarms commenced exports to Israel and in 2023, Pure Sunfarms began exporting cannabis products to Germany and the United Kingdom for the medical markets in those countries. As a result of the typically higher margins in international medical markets, we expect international expansion to enhance our profitability while expanding our brand and experience into emerging legal cannabis markets. Through our 85% ownership of Leli Holland, we hold one of ten licenses to cultivate cannabis legally in the Netherlands under that country’s Closed Supply Chain Experiment program, with production targeted to start in the fourth quarter of 2024.

In the U.S., Balanced Health is our industry-leading cannabinoid business, extending our portfolio into cannabidiol (“CBD”) consumer products.

We also operate a large, well-established, produce business (primarily tomatoes) under the Village Farms Fresh (“VF Fresh”) brand which sells to food distribution companies and mass retail stores. We own and operate produce cultivation assets in Texas and Delta, B.C. and source produce from our growing partners, in Mexico and Canada.

Our intention is to use our assets, expertise and experience (across cannabis, CBD and produce) to participate in the U.S. Cannabis market subject to compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state laws and applicable stock exchange rules.

Our Operating Segments

Canadian Cannabis Segment

Our Canadian Cannabis segment is comprised of Pure Sunfarms and 70% owned Rose LifeScience.

---

Pure Sunfarms is one of the single largest cannabis cultivation and processing operations in the world, one of the lowest-cost greenhouse producers and has developed four of the best-selling flower brands in Canada. Pure Sunfarms leverages our 30 years of experience as a vertically integrated greenhouse grower to grow, produce and sell cannabis products throughout Canada and for export to markets where permissible by law.

Rose is the second best-selling licensed producer of cannabis in the Province of Quebec, as well as a prominent cannabis products commercialization expert in Quebec, acting as the exclusive, direct-to-retail sales, marketing and distribution entity for some of the best-known brands in Canada, as well as Quebec-based micro and craft growers.

Our long-term objective for our Canadian Cannabis segment is to garner and sustain the leading retail market share in Canada stemming from our leading position as the low-cost, high-quality cannabis producer in Canada and expand our Canadian success into the growing foreign cannabis medicinal markets across the globe.

U.S. Cannabis Segment

Our U.S. Cannabis segment is comprised of Balanced Health.

Balanced Health is one of the leading cannabinoid brands and e-commerce platforms in the United States. Balanced Health develops and sells high-quality CBD and hemp-based health and wellness products, distributing its diverse portfolio of consumer products through its top-ranked e-commerce platform, CBDistillery™ and third-party retailers.

Produce Segment

Our Produce segment is comprised of VF Fresh, which currently consists of Village Farms LP and Village Farms Canada LP.

VF Fresh, grows, markets and distributes premium-quality, greenhouse-grown produce in North America. These premium products are grown in sophisticated, highly intensive agricultural greenhouse facilities located in British Columbia and Texas. We also market and distribute premium tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers produced under exclusive and non-exclusive arrangements from our greenhouse supply partners located in Mexico, B.C. and Ontario. We primarily market and distribute under our Village Farms® brand name to retail supermarkets and dedicated fresh food distribution companies throughout the United States and Canada.

Energy Segment

Our Energy segment is comprised of VF Clean Energy Inc.

VFCE, which has partnered with Terreva Renewables (formerly Mas Energy) for the Delta RNG Project based on VFCE’s 20-year contract (including a five-year option to extend) with the City of Vancouver to capture landfill gas at the Delta, B.C. landfill site (the "Delta RNG Project"). The Delta RNG Project, which commenced operations in 2024, converts VFCE’s previous landfill gas-to-electricity business into a state-of-the-art landfill gas to high-demand renewable natural gas ("RNG") facility. Terreva Renewables sells the renewable natural gas and VFCE receives a portion of the revenue in the form of a royalty. The facility also provides food-grade CO2 that can be used in both our cannabis and produce growing operations in Delta.

CANADIAN CANNABIS SEGMENT RESULTS

The Canadian Cannabis segment consists of Pure Sunfarms and Rose LifeScience. The comparative analysis for Canadian Cannabis is based on the consolidated results of Pure Sunfarms and Rose LifeScience for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Sales

Canadian Cannabis net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $37,446 compared with $25,112 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of 12,334, or 49%, was due primarily to a 39% increase in net branded sales and a 181% increase in non-branded sales. The increase in Canadian Cannabis branded sales was primarily due to higher sales of large format flower, pre-rolls and milled products. The increase in non-branded sales resulted from taking advantage of improved supply conditions and pricing created by the shift of many producers to asset light models, including sales of non-brand-spec inventory. International sales decreased by (11%) due primarily to lower sales to Australia.

---

The Canadian Cannabis business continues to pay a burdensome excise duty (also known as an excise tax) on its branded sales (provincial sales). For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred excise duties of $15,222 (C$20,523) versus $13,758 (C$18,602) for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase of ($1,464) (C$1,921) in excise duties was due to an increase in kilograms sold in the provincial (branded) channel in the first quarter of 2024 versus the first quarter of 2023. The Canadian excise duty is our single largest cost of participating in the adult-use (branded) market in Canada.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, 77% of net sales were generated from branded flower, pre-rolls and cannabis derivative products compared with 83% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Non-branded, international, and other sales accounted for 23% of Canadian Cannabis net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared with 17% for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The following table presents sales by Canadian Cannabis revenue stream, together with the impact of the excise tax, in U.S. dollars and Canadian dollars, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

		For the Three Months Ended March 31,

Gross Profit/Margin

Canadian Cannabis gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $9,508 compared with $8,454 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Canadian Cannabis gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was 25% compared with 34% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, with the decrease due to a significant volume of non-brand-spec inventory within non-branded sales, as well as higher sales of our lower margin Fraser Valley brand, in the 2024 quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Canadian Cannabis selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 increased ($856) to $7,704, or 21%, of sales compared with $6,848, or 27%, of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Cost of Sales

U.S. Cannabis cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1,842 compared with $1,739 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The 6% increase was primarily due to a shift in product mix as consumers moved to gummies and away from the higher margin tincture products.

Gross Profit/Margin

U.S Cannabis gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased ($543) to $2,695, or a 59% gross margin, compared with $3,238, or a 65% gross margin, for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

PRODUCE SEGMENT RESULTS – VF FRESH

The produce segment, VF Fresh, consists of Village Farms LP and Village Farms Canada LP. VF Fresh’s comparative analysis are based on the consolidated results of Village Farms LP and Village Farms Canada LP for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Sales

VF Fresh sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 were $36,094, compared with $34,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in sales of $1,527, or 4%, was primarily due to an increase in supply partner average selling price, partially offset by a decrease in sales from Company-owned greenhouses due to the Permian Basin facility not being used for production.

The average selling price for all produce sold during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2023 was as follows: tomatoes increased 6%, peppers increased 51%, cucumbers decreased (13%) and mini cucumbers decreased (8%). The price changes are due primarily to product mix and higher market pricing in 2024 versus 2023.

---

Cost of Sales

VF Fresh cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased by ($1,168), or (3%), to $32,784 compared with $33,952 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in cost of goods sold is primarily due to an improvement of VF Fresh-owned greenhouses of $2,801 and lower freight expense of $707, partially offset by an increase in supply partner costs of ($2,340). The decrease in VF Fresh-owned greenhouses cost of goods is due to a 10% improvement in cost per pound and a (5%) decrease in pounds sold due to not cultivating at the Permian Basin facility. The decrease in freight cost is due to increased available drivers and decreases in fuel prices. The increase in supply partner cost of goods is due to an increase of 5% in product volume.

Gross Profit/Margin

VF Fresh gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $3,310 compared with $615 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was 9% compared with 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The improvements in both gross profit and gross margin percentage were due to a decrease in our per pound cost of sales at the Company's own greenhouses, a decrease in freight costs and an increase in supply partner sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

VF Fresh selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 decreased by $223, or 8%, to $2,693 (7% of sales), compared with $2,916 (8% of sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA

VF Fresh Adjusted EBITDA increased to $2,028 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared with ($995) for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to improvements in gross margin for the reasons identified above. See the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income in “Non-GAAP Measures—Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA”.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources

At March 31, 2024, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $31,685 and working capital was $78,177 , compared with $35,291 in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $79,612 of working capital at of December 31, 2023.

Operating Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, cash used in operating activities were ($50) and ($3,668), respectively. The operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 consisted of ($3,290) in changes in non-cash working capital items and $3,240 in changes before non-cash working capital items, while operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted of ($1,580) in changes in non-cash working capital items and $2,088 in changes before non-cash working capital items. The improvement when comparing the change in before non-cash working capital items for 2024 with 2023 was primarily due to improvements in VF Fresh gross margin in 2024 compared with 2023.

Investing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, cash used in investing activities were ($1,876) and ($1,076), respectively. The increase in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to capital expenditures to support the build out of our first Netherlands-based cannabis production facility. Additional capital expenditures were made to support VF Fresh, Canadian Cannabis, and U.S. Cannabis operations in the quarter.

Financing Activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash used in financing activities were ($1,442) and cash flows provided by financing activities were $18,630 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash used in financing activities consisted of debt repayments of ($1,442). For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash flows provided by financing activities consisted of $23,335 in net proceeds from the issuance of Common Shares, $83 in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and net repayments of debt of ($4,788) due to repayment of PSF's revolving line of credit.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

We expect to meet our contractual obligations and commitments using our working capital and our other resources described under “Capital Resources” above. Other than with respect to our long-term debt described above, we currently do not have any material cash requirements in the near future.

Non-GAAP Measures

References in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis to “Adjusted EBITDA” are to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), as further adjusted to exclude foreign currency exchange gains and losses on translation of long-term debt, share-based compensation, gains and losses on asset sales and the other adjustments set forth in the table below. In addition, we present below and “Adjusted EBITDA – Constant Currency” which excludes the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. See “—Constant Currency” below. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA - Constant Currency are measures of operating performance that are not recognized under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that our non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss determined in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our performance. Our non-GAAP measures are used as additional measures to evaluate the operating and financial performance of our segments. Management believes that our non-GAAP measures are important measures in evaluating the historical performance of the Company because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect our business performance.

Adjusted EBITDA – Constant Currency

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we have presented constant currency adjusted financial measures for sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative, other income (expense), operating (loss) income, loss from consolidated entities, net loss, and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which are considered non-GAAP financial measures. We present constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying operations performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present this information, current and comparative prior period income statement results in currencies other than U.S. dollars are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates from the three month comparative periods in 2023 rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect during the respective current periods. All growth comparisons relate to the corresponding period in 2023. We have provided this non-GAAP financial information to aid investors in better understanding the performance of our segments without taking into account the effect of exchange rate fluctuations. The non-GAAP financial measures presented in this Quarterly Report should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The table below sets forth certain measures of consolidated results from continuing operations on a constant currency basis for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2023 on an as reported and constant currency basis (in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

No accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

As described in Note 4, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company considered qualitative factors in assessing for impairment indicators for the Company’s U.S. and Canadian Cannabis segments. As part of this assessment, the Company considered both external and internal factors, including overall financial performance and outlook. At March 31, 2024, the Company concluded that no impairment indicators existed as no events or circumstances occurred that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the goodwill and intangible assets for its reporting units to be below their carrying amounts. At March 31, 2024, the carrying value of goodwill associated with our Cannabis – U.S. segment and our Cannabis – Canada segment was $10.0 million and $44.9 million, respectively, and the carrying value of intangible assets associated with our Cannabis – U.S. segment and our Cannabis – Canada segment was $1.9 million and $24.0 million, respectively.

We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying our critical accounting policies. We are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

As of March 31, 2024, our variable interest rate debt was primarily related to our Credit Facilities and Term Loans. Outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility and Term Loans bear interest at either the (a) Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or (b) Canadian Prime Rate, as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin. As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately $4,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding revolving loans under our Operating Loan with an interest rate of 7.1% and we had approximately $46,083 in aggregate principal amounts of our Term Loans with a weighted average interest rate of 9.1%. The current interest rates for outstanding revolving loans under our Credit Facility and Term Loans reflect basis point increases of approximately 0.9% over the comparable period in 2023.

Our interest expense is affected by the overall interest rate environment. Our variable rate interest debt subjects us to risk from increases in prevailing interest rates. This risk increases in the current inflationary environment, in which the Federal Reserve has increased interest rates, resulting in an increase in our variable interest rates and related interest expense. An additional 50 basis point increase in the applicable interest rates under our Credit Facility and Term Loan would have increased our interest expense by approximately $59 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $66 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

While we cannot predict our ability to refinance existing debt or the significance of the impact that interest rate movements will have on our existing debt, management evaluates our financial position on an ongoing basis.

Foreign Exchange Risk

As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Canadian/U.S. foreign exchange rate was C$1.00 = US$0.7383 and C$1.00 = US$0.7390, respectively. If all other variables remain constant, an increase of $0.10 in the Canadian dollar would have the following impact on the ending balances of certain statements of financial position items at March 31, 2024 and 2023 with the net foreign exchange gain or loss directly impacting net income (loss):

		March 31, 2024				March 31, 2023
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents		$	2,244			$	1,182
Trade receivables			3,968				2,660
Inventories			7,397				7,827
Prepaid and deposits			503				971
Financial liabilities
Trade payables and accrued liabilities			(4,793	)			(5,345	)
Loan payable			(3,286	)			(3,757	)
Net foreign exchange gain		$	6,033			$	3,538

Our exposure to foreign exchange risk and the impact of foreign exchange rates are monitored by the Company’s management but generally the Company tries to match its sales (trade receivables) and vendor payments (trade payables) such that the net impact is not material.

Other than the interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk discussed above, there have been no material changes to our market risks from those disclosed in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective at a reasonable assurance level due to the material weakness described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

---

Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

As of December 31, 2023, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control –Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to errors in the calculation of the fair value of its goodwill and intangible assets, which was subsequently modified, resulting in no change in management’s determination of the fair value of its goodwill and intangible assets but, based on the COSO criteria, has been deemed to be a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

Remediation Plan and Status

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company implemented remediation to improve the operation of its controls over the review of the determination of the recoverable amount of its goodwill and intangible assets. The Company will continue to review, optimize and enhance its financial reporting controls and procedures to ensure the remediation measures are effective and controls are operating effectively. The Company expects implementation of its remediation plan by December 31, 2024.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has reviewed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), other than to address the material weakness described in management's report on internal control over financial reporting, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 (as described above) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Business, Basis Of Presentation And Significant Accounting Policies	1. BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Business Village Farms International, Inc. (“VFF” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a corporation existing under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. VFF’s principal operating subsidiaries as of March 31, 2024 are Village Farms Canada Limited Partnership, Village Farms, L.P., Pure Sunfarms Corp. (“Pure Sunfarms”), and Balanced Health Botanicals, LLC (“Balanced Health”) and VF Clean Energy, Inc. ("VFCE"). VFF also owns a 70% interest in Rose LifeScience Inc. (“Rose”) and an 85% interest in Leli Holland B.V. ("Leli"). The address of the registered office of VFF is 4700-80th Street, Delta, British Columbia, Canada, V4K 3N3. The Company’s shares are listed on Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “VFF”. Village Farms owns and operates sophisticated, highly intensive agricultural greenhouse facilities in British Columbia and Texas, where it produces, markets and sells premium-quality tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumbers. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Pure Sunfarms, is a vertically integrated Licensed Producer ("LP") and supplier of cannabis products sold to customers throughout Canada and internationally. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Balanced Health, develops and sells high-quality, cannabidiol (“CBD”) based products including ingestible, edible and topical applications within the US. Through its 70% ownership of Rose, the Company has a substantial presence in the Province of Quebec as a cannabis supplier, producer and commercialization expert. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2023 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date. Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 contained in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In management’s opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. When necessary, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. Interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The Company believes that the disclosures made in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading. Principals of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include Village Farms International, Inc. and its subsidiaries and include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Other parties’ interests in entities that the Company consolidates are reported as non-controlling interests within equity, except for mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests, which are recorded within mezzanine equity. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is reported as a separate line item below net income or loss. The Company applies the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities for which it does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which it has the ability to exert significant influence. For equity investees in which the Company has an undivided interest in the assets, liabilities and profits or losses of an unconsolidated entity, but does not exercise control over the entity, the Company consolidates its proportional interest in the accounts of the entity. Translations of Foreign Currencies The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, with resulting translation gains or losses included within other comprehensive income or loss. Revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange during the applicable period. Substantially all of the Company’s foreign operations use their local currency as their functional currency. For foreign operations for which the local currency is not the functional currency, the operation’s non-monetary assets are remeasured into U.S. dollars at historical exchange rates. All other accounts are remeasured at current exchange rates. Gains or losses from remeasurement are included in foreign exchange loss, net. Currency gains or losses resulting from transactions executed in currencies other than the functional currency are included in foreign exchange gain (loss). In these condensed consolidated financial statements, “$” means U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted. General Economic, Regulatory and Market Conditions The Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, direct and indirect negative effects on its business and operations from negative economic, regulatory and market conditions, including recent inflationary effects on fuel prices, labor and materials costs, rising interest rates, potential recessionary impacts and supply chain disruptions that could negatively affect demand for new projects and/or delay existing project timing or cause increased project costs. The extent to which general economic, regulatory and market conditions could affect the Company’s business, operations and financial results is uncertain as it will depend upon numerous evolving factors that management may not be able to accurately predict, and, therefore, any future impacts on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations cannot be quantified or predicted with specificity. Recent Accounting Pronouncements No accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes	3 Months Ended

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	8. INCOME TAXES The Company has recorded a provision for income taxes of ($320) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared with a provision for income taxes of ($634) for the same period last year. The Company’s income tax provision is based on management’s estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The tax (provision) benefit in any period will be affected by, among other things, permanent, as well as temporary, differences in the deductibility of certain items, changes in the valuation allowance related to net deferred tax assets, in addition to changes in tax legislation. As a result, the Company may experience significant fluctuations in the effective book tax rate (that is, tax expense divided by pre-tax book income) from period to period. In order to fully utilize the net deferred tax assets, the Company will need to generate sufficient taxable income in future years. The Company analyzed all positive and negative evidence to determine if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not to realize the benefit of the net deferred tax assets. The recognition of the net deferred tax assets and related tax benefits is based upon the Company’s conclusions regarding, among other considerations, estimates of future earnings based on information currently available and current and anticipated customers, contracts, and product introductions, as well as historical operating results and certain tax planning strategies. Based on the analysis of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company has concluded that it does not have the ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the necessary period to utilize the entire benefit for the deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company established a valuation allowance of $40,203 as of March 31, 2024 and $39,530 as of December 31, 2023. The Company cannot presently estimate what, if any, changes to the valuation of its deferred tax assets may be deemed appropriate in the future. If the Company incurs future losses, it may be necessary to record additional valuation allowance related to the deferred tax assets recognized as of March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s net deferred tax assets totaled approximately $4,201 and were primarily derived from net operating loss carryforwards.

Business, Basis Of Presentation And Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2023 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date. Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 contained in the Company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In management’s opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented have been included. When necessary, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. Interim period operating results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The Company believes that the disclosures made in these consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information not misleading.
Principals of Consolidation	Principals of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include Village Farms International, Inc. and its subsidiaries and include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and, when applicable, entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Other parties’ interests in entities that the Company consolidates are reported as non-controlling interests within equity, except for mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests, which are recorded within mezzanine equity. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is reported as a separate line item below net income or loss. The Company applies the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities for which it does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which it has the ability to exert significant influence. For equity investees in which the Company has an undivided interest in the assets, liabilities and profits or losses of an unconsolidated entity, but does not exercise control over the entity, the Company consolidates its proportional interest in the accounts of the entity.
Translations of Foreign Currencies	Translations of Foreign Currencies The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, with resulting translation gains or losses included within other comprehensive income or loss. Revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at average rates of exchange during the applicable period. Substantially all of the Company’s foreign operations use their local currency as their functional currency. For foreign operations for which the local currency is not the functional currency, the operation’s non-monetary assets are remeasured into U.S. dollars at historical exchange rates. All other accounts are remeasured at current exchange rates. Gains or losses from remeasurement are included in foreign exchange loss, net. Currency gains or losses resulting from transactions executed in currencies other than the functional currency are included in foreign exchange gain (loss). In these condensed consolidated financial statements, “$” means U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
General Economic, Regulatory and Market Conditions	General Economic, Regulatory and Market Conditions The Company has experienced, and may continue to experience, direct and indirect negative effects on its business and operations from negative economic, regulatory and market conditions, including recent inflationary effects on fuel prices, labor and materials costs, rising interest rates, potential recessionary impacts and supply chain disruptions that could negatively affect demand for new projects and/or delay existing project timing or cause increased project costs. The extent to which general economic, regulatory and market conditions could affect the Company’s business, operations and financial results is uncertain as it will depend upon numerous evolving factors that management may not be able to accurately predict, and, therefore, any future impacts on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations cannot be quantified or predicted with specificity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements No accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
