VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Village Farms International, Inc. (“Village Farms” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: VFF) today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Management Commentary
“We delivered continued strong improvement in our financial results in the third quarter, building on the first half of the year,” said Michael DeGiglio, President and Chief Executive Officer, Village Farms. “Solid, profitable performance from each of our Canadian and U.S. Cannabis businesses, together with another quarter of significant year-over-year improvement in our Fresh Produce operations, is proving out our strategic decision to build upon our unmatched expertise in controlled environmental agriculture to deliver positive cash flow and profitability as we pursue growth in each of our businesses. The combined performances of our businesses in the third quarter were reflected in positive consolidated adjusted EBITDA, as well as consolidated cash generation, with positive contributions from each of our operating segments.”
“Our leadership in the Canadian Cannabis industry is undisputed as we delivered another quarter of positive cash flow and adjusted EBITDA, while continuing to rank among the largest Licensed Producers nationally1,” continued Mr. DeGiglio. “Notably, year-to-date Canadian dollar adjusted EBITDA has increased 37%, driven by our focus on operational excellence. Our competitive advantage in cultivation is enabling innovative investment in other critical functions, such as commercialization, to generate sustainable, profitable market share expansion. We are seeing encouraging results as we evolve and improve “newness” at the shelf and continuously focus on quality, which is resonating with consumers and resulted in a return to the number two market share position nationally in October1 from number four in July1.”
“Our stabilized U.S. Cannabis business generated positive net income, adjusted EBITDA and cash flow,” added Mr. DeGiglio. “Building on the strength of our product launches in the Synergy+ line of products, we recently launched a new visual brand for CBDistillery, including a revamped web site, focused on the wellness attributes of our products.”
“Our Fresh Produce business is progressing towards our goal of a return to profitability. We delivered another quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA and a $22.5 million year-over-year improvement year-to-date to positive $1.1 million. We also generated positive cash flow and remain firmly on track toward our goal of achieving positive adjusted EBITDA for this year. With the continued progress we have made in managing the Brown Rugose virus, including the implementation of virus-tolerant, and, increasingly, virus resistant strains, as well as investments in new technology, the Fresh Produce business is positioned for continued improvement next year.”

Strategic Growth and Operational Highlights
Canadian Cannabis
- Maintained market share leadership, with recently launched brands and geographies increasingly contributing:
- A top-three Licensed Producer nationally for 2023 year to date1, returning to the number two position in October1 and, in Quebec, the number two Licensed Producer and fastest growing Licensed Producer for the third quarter of 20231, with market share expanding from the second quarter of 20231;
- A top-two ranked Licensed Producer in the dried flower category nationally in the third quarter of 2023 (held number one position prior to acquisition of market share by a competitor) 1;
- Pure Sunfarms was the top-selling brand of dried flower in the core price category nationally for the year to date1;
- The Original Fraser Valley Weed Co. was the fastest growing dried flower brand in the value category in Canada’s largest provincial market, Ontario, for the third quarter of 20231;
- Shortly after its launch, the Soar brand rapidly became a top three premium dried flower cannabis brand in Canada1. Much of the brand's success to date can be credited to Pineapple God, one of Soar’s exclusive cultivars. In the third quarter of 2023, this cultivar was one of the best-selling premium dried flower products, nationally;
- Launched new form factors to address the evolving preferences of Canadian consumers, including:
- The Super Toast brand, which is a line of ready to smoke products intended for consumers who are looking for easy ways to select and experience fresh and potent cannabis; and,
- An entirely new product line, the High THC, 1g Vape offering, featuring new hardware and formulations to maximize flavour, potency and consumer experience. The new 1g cartridges are optimized to deliver flavour and balanced vaporization, allowing consumers to enjoy their vape from start to finish; and,
- In September, Village Farms was named the Best Canadian Cannabis Company for the second consecutive year at the 2023 Benzinga Cannabis Awards.

U.S. Cannabis
- Balanced Health Botanical’s CBDistillery recently unveiled a new visual brand featuring the same great ingredients and benefits. Products can now be found in five different categories, each with their own wellness benefit; and,
- The Company filed an application for a Texas Medicinal license in late April 2023. The Company is hopeful that its application will be awarded the highest or one of the highest marks, putting it in a good position, should the State of Texas award additional medicinal cannabis licenses. If awarded, the Company plans to work with its listing authority to structure an acceptable ownership structure.
VF Fresh (Produce)
- A regulatory change, improvements in the Company’s cannabis yields and the Company’s focus on supply-demand dynamics in all businesses support the decision to dedicate the unused half of the Delta 2 facility to produce for the 2024 calendar year. The Company expects this to contribute incremental cash flow and profitability to its VF Fresh business.

2 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standard meaning prescribed in by GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect our business performance. Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s 70% interest in Rose LifeScience. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Total Net Sales.

Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company because it excludes non-recuring and other items that do not reflect our business performance. Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s 70% interest in Rose LifeScience. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we previously included an adjustment for $2,284 of obsolete inventory associated with winding down of the Village Fields Hemp (“VFH”) joint venture (the “JV exit”) that is now being excluded in response to comments from and discussions with the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
We caution that our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 may not be indicative of our future performance, particularly in light of the ongoing global Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV), the potential impact of inflation and/or the potential impact of supply-chain shortages due to conflicts abroad.

1 Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company because it excludes non-recuring and other items that do not reflect our business performance. Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company’s 70% interest in Rose LifeScience.
2 For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we previously included an adjustment for $2,284 of obsolete inventory associated with the JV exit that is now being excluded in response to comments from and discussions with the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
A detailed discussion of our consolidated and segment results can be found in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 (the "Third Quarter 10-Q”), which will be filed on EDGAR at www.sec.gov, on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.com and can also be found on the Village Farms website under Financial Reports (https://villagefarms.com/financial-reports/) within the Investors section.

(1) Represents impairments to goodwill of ($25,159) and intangible assets of ($4,630) that were triggered by inflationary effects on consumer spending, decreases in market capitalization of CBD companies and the continued federal regulation lack of clarity with respect to CBD.
(2) Represents exit related costs incurred due to the winding down of the VFH joint venture. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we previously included an adjustment for $2,284 of obsolete inventory associated with the JV exit that is now being excluded in response to comments from and discussions with the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
(3) The purchase price adjustment primarily reflects the non-cash accounting charge resulting from the revaluation of Pure Sunfarms’ inventory to fair value at the acquisition date on November 2, 2020, Pure Sunfarms' intangible amortization and Rose intangible amortization resulting from the September 30, 2022 finalization of the Rose purchase price accounting.
(4) Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized earnings measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA presented for these segments may not be comparable to similar measures presented for comparable segments by other issuers. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of the Company’s segments because it excludes non-recurring and other items that do not reflect the business performance of our segments. Adjusted EBITDA for Canadian Cannabis includes the 70% interest in Rose LifeScience and Adjusted EBITDA for “Corporate” and “Total” includes our 65% interest in VFH.
