1 Changes in fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”)

 

 

(i)

AusCann Group Holdings Ltd. (“AusCann”), operates in Australia's medical cannabis industry and is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. The Company holds 29,865,000 ordinary shares of AusCann, which represents 11% of the issued and outstanding shares at March 31, 2018, and 7,677,639 options. Of the currently held shares, 27,465,000 have been placed in escrow until February 3, 2019. The options are exercisable at AUD$ 0.20 and expire on January 19, 2020. Any shares received on exercise of the options will also be held in escrow until February 3, 2019.

 

For the year ended March 31, 2017, a gain of $15,900 (net of $2,428 in taxes) was recorded relating to the AusCann shares in fair value changes on available for sale financial assets and a gain of $5,702 was recorded on the AusCann options in other income (expense).

 

(ii)

James E. Wagner Cultivation Ltd. (“JWC”) is an ACMPR applicant. During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, Canopy Rivers acquired 37,000 common shares and 5,000 warrants for $3,975, advanced $2,500 under a repayable debenture and also entered into a royalty agreement with JWC. The repayable debenture bears interest at 8%, payable quarterly in cash, and is due at the earlier of 18 months or the date the applicant receives a sales license and is secured by the assets of the applicant. As JWC received a sales license before maturity, the principal amount drawn under the repayable debenture automatically converted into a royalty interest. Under the terms of the royalty agreement, the Company will receive a royalty per gram of applicable JWC cannabis production for a term of 20 years.

The repayable debenture and royalty agreement is being accounted for as one instrument and is classified as loans and receivables and being measured at amortized cost. The carrying value approximates its fair value.

The common shares represent an 14.7% ownership interest in JWC. JWC is a private company and prior to March 31, 2018, the fair value of the Company’s equity interest could not be reliably measured and the common shares and warrants were carried at their cost of $3,863 and $112, respectively. Subsequent to year end, JWC completed a financing that provided a measure of the fair value of the common shares and warrants and the shares and warrants were adjusted to their fair value of $10,591 and $814, respectively. The difference between their carrying amount of the shares and this fair value was recorded in other comprehensive income and the difference between the carrying amount of the warrants and this fair value for the warrants.

Canopy Growth also entered into agreements with JWC whereby they have committed to sell a specified portion of their output to Canopy Growth.
