Village Farms International Reports Financial Results for First Quarter 2023
Village Farms International, Inc. (“Village Farms” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: VFF) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Management Commentary
“The first quarter was a solid start to 2023 as continued strong growth in our Canadian Cannabis business and steady sequential performance in our US Cannabis business were complemented by another quarter of significantly improved results in our Fresh Produce business,” said Michael DeGiglio, Chief Executive Officer, Village Farms.
“Our Canadian Cannabis business delivered 40% year-over-year growth in Retail Branded sales for the first quarter, once again significantly outpacing overall market growth, as we maintained our number two market share position nationally and were one of just three of the top 10 producers to expand market share from the same period last year1. Combined with our ongoing focus on production efficiency and cost management, we achieved our 18th consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA, with a year-over-year increase of 95%.”
“Canada continues to be an exceptionally difficult environment in which to operate a legal cannabis business profitably, most notably due to the absurd level of taxation relative to all other consumer products, including similarly regulated products like alcohol. The excessive, flat per-gram excise tax is handcuffing the very businesses that can ensure that this historical piece of Canadian legislation is a long-term success. At the same, it is enabling the illicit market to not only survive but flourish. We are disappointed that the federal government has not yet chosen to revisit cannabis taxation in the context of the economic realities of the market, while concurrently choosing to limit proposed tax increases in the already favourably taxed alcohol industry. We implore the federal government to address fair and equitable taxation for the cannabis industry to support safe, regulated product in the hands of adults, and a healthy and competitive legal market that supports profitable investment in jobs and local communities.”
“We continue to focus on, and excel in, what we can control. We are focused on leveraging our commercial, branding and innovation capabilities for additional opportunities in growing, profitable cannabis categories to continue to drive sales growth and market share gains. Importantly, higher margin, rationally taxed export sales from our Canadian Cannabis business grew more than nine-fold year-over-year as we add international markets, including the launch this week of Village Farms-grown products in Germany. We will continue to leverage and exploit our premier unmatched low-cost, high quality Canadian cannabis production, track record of success and reputation to aggressively pursue export and other international opportunities, especially in the face of the challenging Canadian market economics.”
“In our Fresh Produce business, again this quarter we achieved considerable improvement in our operations, which drove a $6.6 million turnaround in adjusted EBITDA. We are benefitting from the first steps in our multi-part plan to return this strategic and important part of our business to profitability. The much improved first quarter, helped by some macro-environment stabilization, continues to support our confidence in substantially improved financial performance from Fresh Produce for this year.”

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 since acquisition.
We caution that our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 may not be indicative of our future performance, particularly in light of global inflation and lingering supply-chain shortages due to the Ukrainian conflict.

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-recurring and other items that do not reflect our business performance.
