2.     ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

 

Statement of compliance with IFRS as issued by IASB

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, have been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all notes of the type normally included in an annual financial statement. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022.

 

Authorization for the issue of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group as of September 30, 2022, June 30, 2022 and for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were authorized by the Board of Directors of Bioceres Crop Solutions Corp. on November 29, 2022.

 

Basis of measurement

 

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared using:

 

        Going Concern Basis of Accounting, considering the conclusion of the assessment made by the Management about the ability of the Group and its subsidiaries to continue as a going concern, in accordance with the requirements of paragraph 25 of IAS 1, “Presentation of Financial Statements”.

 

        Accrual Basis of Accounting (except for cash flows information). Under this basis of accounting, the effects of transactions and other events are recognized as they occur, even when there are no cash flows.

 

Functional currency and presentation currency

 

a)         Functional currency

 

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic market in which the entity operates (i.e., “the functional currency”).

 

IAS 29 “Financial reporting in hyperinflationary economies” requires that the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy, whether these are based on the historical cost method or the current cost method, be stated in terms of the measuring unit current at the closing date of the reporting period. For such purpose, the inflation produced since the acquisition date or the revaluation date, as applicable, must be computed in non-monetary items. The standard details a series of factors to be considered for concluding whether an economy is hyperinflationary, including, but not limited to, a cumulative inflation rate over a three-year period that approaches or exceeds 100%. The accumulated inflation in three years, as of June 30, 2018, was over 100%. It was for this reason that, in accordance with IAS 29, the Argentine economy was considered as hyperinflationary since July 1, 2018. Consequently, the Group has applied IAS 29 to these financial statements.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

(Amounts in US Dollars, except otherwise indicated)

 

In an inflationary period, any entity that maintains an excess of monetary assets over monetary liabilities, will lose purchasing power, and any entity that maintains an excess of monetary liabilities over monetary assets, will gain purchasing power, provided that such items are not subject to an adjustment mechanism.

 

Briefly, the restatement mechanism of IAS 29 establishes that monetary assets and liabilities will not be restated because they are already expressed in a current unit of measurement at the end of the reporting period. Assets and liabilities subject to adjustments based on specific agreements, will be adjusted according to those agreements. Non-monetary items measured at their current values at the end of the reporting period, such as the net realizable value or others, do not need to be restated. The remaining non-monetary assets and liabilities will be restated according to a general price index. The loss or gain for the net monetary position will be included in the net result of the reporting period, listed in a separate line item.

 

From July 1, 2022 the main Argentinian subsidiaries of the Group have changed their functional currency from Argentine Pesos to United States Dollars as a result of changes in events and conditions relevant to their business operations. These include a macroeconomic context with high inflation and depreciation of the Argentine peso, and inorganic growth at the close of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, which led to a global unification of management and commercial strategy whereby integration of the businesses was done by business units, regardless of the legal entities.

 

The effect of the functional currency change was recorded prospectively as of July 1, 2022, in accordance with IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. As a result, from July 1,2022 there are no longer effects of inflation adjustments for the above mentioned subsidiaries.

 

b)         Presentation currency

 

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group are presented in US Dollars.

 

c)         Foreign currency

 

Transactions entered into by Group entities in a currency other than their functional currency are recorded at the relevant exchange rates as of the date upon which such transactions occur. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the prevailing exchanges rates as of the final day of each reporting period. Exchange differences arising from the retranslation of unsettled monetary assets and liabilities are recognized immediately in profit or loss, except for foreign currency borrowings qualifying as a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation for which exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the foreign exchange reserve along with the exchange differences arising from the retranslation of the foreign operation. Upon the disposal of a foreign operation, the cumulative exchange differences recognized in the foreign exchange reserve relating to such operation up to the date of disposal are transferred to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of the gain or loss recognized upon such disposal.

 

Changes in accounting policies

 

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those adopted for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022.

 

3.     NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BY THE IASB

 

a) The following new standards became applicable for the current reporting period and adopted by the Group.

 

F-13

 

BIOCERES CROP SOLUTIONS CORP.

 

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

(Amounts in US Dollars, except otherwise indicated)

 

Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020

 

The following improvements were finalized in May 2020:

 

• IFRS 9 Financial Instruments – clarifies which fees should be included in the 10% test for derecognition of financial liabilities.

 

• IFRS 16 Leases – amendment of illustrative example 13 to remove the illustration of payments from the lessor relating to leasehold improvements, to remove any confusion about the treatment of lease incentives.

 

• IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards – allows entities that have measured their assets and liabilities at carrying amounts recorded in their parent’s books to also measure any cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by the parent. This amendment will also apply to associates and joint ventures that have taken the same IFRS 1 exemption.

 

• IAS 41 Agriculture – removal of the requirement for entities to exclude cash flows for taxation when measuring fair value under IAS 41. This amendment is intended to align with the requirement in the standard to discount cash flows on a post-tax basis.

 

The new standard is effective for financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2022.

 

Amendments to IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before intended use

 

The amendment to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E) prohibits an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of PP&E any proceeds received from selling items produced while the entity is preparing the asset for its intended use. It also clarifies that an entity is ‘testing whether the asset is functioning properly’ when it assesses the technical and physical performance of the asset. The financial performance of the asset is not relevant to this assessment.

 

Entities must disclose separately the amounts of proceeds and costs relating to items produced that are not an output of the entity’s ordinary activities.

 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.

 

These amendments are not expected to have material impact on the Group.

 

Amendments to IFRS 3 - Reference to the Conceptual Framework

 

Minor amendments were made to IFRS 3 Business Combinations to update the references to the Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting and add an exception for the recognition of liabilities and contingent liabilities within the scope of IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and Interpretation 21 Levies. The amendments also confirm that contingent assets should not be recognized at the acquisition date.

 

The amendments are effective for financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2022.

 

These amendments are not expected to have material impact on the Group.

 

Amendments to IAS 37 - Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract

 

The amendment to IAS 37 clarifies that the direct costs of fulfilling a contract include both the incremental costs of fulfilling the contract and an allocation of other costs directly related to fulfilling contracts. Before recognizing a separate provision for an onerous contract, the entity recognizes any impairment loss that has occurred on assets used in fulfilling the contract.

 

The amendments are effective for financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2022.

 

These amendments are not expected to have material impact on the Group.

 

b) The following new standards are not yet adopted by the Group.

(Amounts in US Dollars, except otherwise indicated)

 

Amendments to IFRS 16- Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback

 

The amendment requires a seller-lessee to subsequently measure lease liabilities arising from a leaseback in a way that it does not recognise any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. The new requirements do not prevent a seller-lessee from recognising in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of lease.

 

These amendments are not expected to have material impact on the Group.

 

The amendments are effective for financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted.

 

4.     IMPACT OF COVID-19

 

The Group’s operations, which involve agricultural production and commercialization activities, have been mostly exempted from the disruptions caused by covid-19. Consequently, our financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations have not been materially impacted as we have been allowed to continue with our operations.

 

The eventual scope of covid-19 pandemic and its impact on the countries and global economy are unknown, with governments being able to implement stricter containment measures, which are not predictable in this instance. It cannot be reasonably quantified to what extent covid-19 will affect the Group’s business and the results of its operations in the future if this situation is prolonged. The Board of Directors and senior management are closely monitoring the pandemic and taking all necessary measures at their disposal to protect human life and the Group’s operations and financial condition.

 

5.     SEASONALITY

 

The Group revenues fluctuate depending on the timing of orders from our distributors and customers and on prevailing seed market prices, which influence the purchase decisions of growers, the end-users of seed and integrated products, crop protection products and crop nutrition products. Given the cyclicality of crop planting and harvesting and South America’s planting and growing seasons, which vary from year to year, our business is highly seasonal. This results in substantial fluctuations in quarterly sales and profitability. Generally, the Group sales are concentrated in the third and fourth quarters of each calendar year, when demand for seed and integrated products, crop protection products and crop nutrition products increases as South American growers begin planting their fields. Regarding the seed and integrated products business, the Group contracts with growers and seed suppliers based upon anticipated market demand that we forecast. Generally, in the seed and integrated products business we stock the seed during the harvest season and ship from inventory throughout the year, with the objective of selling most of the inventory from the current year’s harvest before the next year’s, with crop protection and crop nutrition business following a cycle similar to the seed cycle. The impact of seasonality and the resulting fluctuations in quarterly results may be lessened as we achieve our international expansion plans for the seed and integrated products business in geographies with complementary seasons and climates.

The amounts of revenue and net loss of the acquiree since the merger date included in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the three- month period ended September 30, 2022, were $5.5 million and ($4.6) million, respectively.

 

The pro-forma revenue and net profit of the combined entity for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022 as though the date for the merger had been as of the beginning of the quarter reporting period amount to $127.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

 

Syngenta Seedcare agreement

 

On September 12, 2022, we entered into a 10-year agreement with Syngenta Crop Protection AG (“Syngenta”), pursuant to which Syngenta will be the exclusive global distributor of certain of Bioceres’ biological solutions for seed care applications. Products included within the scope of the agreement are the nitrogen-fixing Rhizobia seed treatment solutions (inoculants), and other biological seed and soil treatment solutions currently in the portfolio or pipeline of Rizobacter. The products in the agreement will be sold under the trademarks owned by Bioceres or its affiliates, or any other trademark approved by Bioceres.

 

Pro Farm’s biological solutions are not included within the scope of the current agreement. Bioceres retains global rights for use of products included in the agreement on HB4® crops and, in the United States, Syngenta rights will be non-exclusive for upstream applications.

 

The exclusive commercial collaboration is global, except for Argentina where both parties will continue to work under the existing framework. Implementation will be staggered, commencing in January 2023 for territories in the first phase, and in January 2024 for territories in the second phase, and subject to regulatory clearances.

 

The agreement establishes a joint R&D program to accelerate the development and registration of Bioceres’ pipeline products and new solutions for seed treatment, foliar and other applications, globally. Funding for R&D platform will be shared, with Syngenta contributing 70% of the investment.

 

In consideration for the rights granted to Syngenta under the distribution agreement and the R&D collaboration, Syngenta made an upfront payment of $50 million to Bioceres on October 6th, 2022. Additionally, for the duration of the agreement, Bioceres will receive 50% to 30% of the profits generated by sales conducted by Syngenta, depending on the geography and the year. The agreement sets global minimum targets for profits to be received by Bioceres, that amount to a total of $230 million for the life of the agreement. If Bioceres fails to receive the minimum profit targets set for any rolling two calendar year period, it will have the option to terminate Syngenta’s exclusivity. Syngenta may opt to retain exclusivity by compensating the shortfall in cash or other economic consideration. Syngenta will cover all operating expenses incurred in connection with the marketing and sale in exclusive territory. Bioceres’ subsidiary Rizobacter will act as the exclusive supplier to Syngenta for products under the agreement.

 

The agreement has not yet entered in force until the initial payment was made. Therefore the transaction has no impact as of September 30, 2022. Parties involved are working on the implementation process.

7.12.Secured Notes

 

Secured Guaranteed Notes

 

On August 5, 2022 the 25% of the outstanding capital of the convertible note that we had issued in 2020 and which the 75% was already converted into shares on March 16, 2022, were converted into 1.5 million shares. Bioceres has repurchased such shares for $24 million issuing the “The Secured Guaranteed Notes”.

 

The Secured Guaranteed Notes due 2026 mature 48 months after the issue date and bear interest at 9.0% from the issue date through 24 months after the issue date, 13.0% from 25 through 36 months after the issue date and 14.0% from 37 through 48 months after the issue date. Interest is payable semi-annually. The Secured Guaranteed Notes due 2026 have no conversion rights into our ordinary shares.

 

The carrying value of the Secured Guaranteed Notes as of September 30, 2022 measured at amortized cost does not differ significantly from their fair value.

 

Secured Convertible Guaranteed Notes

 

On August 8, 2022, we issued the Secured Guaranteed Convertible Notes for a total principal amount of $55 million. The notes have a 4- year maturity and accrue interest at an annual interest rate of 9%, of which 5% is payable in cash and 4% in-kind. At any time up to maturity the note holders might opt to convert the outstanding principal amount into common shares of Bioceres at a strike price of $18 per share. The Company can repurchase the notes voluntarily 30 months after the issue date.

 

At inception, the fair value of the liability component of the Secured Convertible Guaranteed Notes was measured using a discount rate of 13.57%.

 

The carrying value of Secured Convertible Guaranteed Notes as of September 30, 2022 measured at amortized cost does not differ significantly from their fair value.

 

The Secured Guaranteed Notes and the Secured Convertibles Guaranteed Notes are secured by substantially all of the assets located in the United States of Pro Farm Group, Inc. and its U.S. subsidiaries and are guaranteed by BCS Holding Inc., Bioceres Crops do Brasil Ltda., Bioceres Crops S.A., Bioceres Semillas S.A.U., Verdeca LLC, Rasa Holding LLC, Rizobacter Argentina S.A., Rizobacter del Paraguay S.A., Rizobacter do Brasil Ltda., Rizobacter South Africa, Rizobacter Uruguay, Rizobacter USA, LLC, Pro Farm Group, Inc., Pro Farm Michigan Manufacturing LLC, Pro Farm, Inc., Pro Farm Technologies Comércio de Insumo Agrícolas do Brasil Ltda., Glinatur S.A. and Pro Farm OU.

10.EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)

 

The numerators and denominators used in the calculation of basic EPS and diluted EPS are presented below:

 

   09/30/2022   09/30/2021 
Numerator          
Profit for the period (basic EPS)   498,297    874,137 
Profit for the period (diluted EPS)   498,297    874,137 
Denominator          
Weighted average number of shares (basic EPS)   60,537,110    41,104,088 
Weighted average number of shares (diluted EPS)   61,736,679    42,376,794 
           
Basic profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent   0.0082    0.0213 
Diluted profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent   0.0081    0.0206 

 

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential shares. The Group has two categories of dilutive potential shares, share-based incentives and Secured Convertible Guaranteed Notes.

 

The stock options were included in the diluted EPS calculation for the period ended Septiember 30, 2022 only for the tranches in which the average market price of ordinary shares during the periods was higher than the assumed proceeds per option.

 

Secured Convertible Guaranteed Notes outstanding were not included in the diluted EPS calculations for the year ended September 30, 2022 because its interest (net of tax and other changes in income or expense) per ordinary share obtainable on conversion exceeds basic earnings per share.

 

11.INFORMATION ABOUT UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED COMPONENTS OF EQUITY

 

In consideration of payment of Pro Farm Merger, we have issued 16.4 million shares. See Note 6.

 

See Note 7.12 in reference to the issuance of 1.5 million shares in connection with the conversion of the convertible note that we had issued in 2020.

 

The Secured Convertibles Guaranteed Notes mentioned in Note 7.12 were classified as compound instruments, a non-derivative financial instrument that contains both a liability and an equity component. The equity consideration was included in the “Convertible instruments” column.

 

As of September 30, 2022, we had (i) 100,000,000 ordinary shares ($0.0001 par value) authorized, (ii) 63,311,012 ordinary shares issued and outstanding, (iii) 1,000,000 preferred shares ($0.0001 par value) authorized, (iv) no preferred shares issued and outstanding, (v) 2,496,209 ordinary shares reserved for our equity compensation plans. Of the total issued shares, we have repurchased 2,003,409 shares of our own.

 

Holders of the ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each ordinary share.

Estimation of fair value

 

The fair value of mutual funds and other investments is calculated using the market approach, which use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The quoted marked price used for financial assets held by the Group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in level 1.

 

The Group’s financial liabilities and other investments, which were not traded in an active market, were determined using valuation techniques that maximize the use of available market information, and thus rely as little as possible on specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instruments are included in level 2.

 

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instruments are included in Level 3.

 

The Group’s policy is to recognize transfers between different categories of the fair value hierarchy at the time they occur or when there are changes in the circumstances that cause the transfer.

 

There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. There were no changes in economic or business circumstances affecting fair value.

 

Financial instruments not measured at fair value

 

The financial instruments not measured at fair value include cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, other accounts receivable, trade payables and other debts, borrowings, financed payments and convertible notes.

 

The carrying value of financial instruments not measured at fair value does not differ significantly from their fair value, except for borrowings (Note 7.11).

 

Management estimates that the carrying value of the financial instruments measured at amortized cost approximates their fair value.

 

Currency risk

 

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rate. Currency on foreign exchange risk arises when the Group enters into transactions denominated in a currency other than its functional currency.

 

The table below sets forth our net exposure to currency risk as of September 30, 2022.

 

Net foreign currency position   09/30/2022
Amount expressed in US$   21,375,336

 

The main Argentinian subsidiaries of the Group have changed their functional currency from Argentine Pesos to US Dollar (See note 2).

 

Considering only this net currency exposure as of September 30, 2022 if an US Dollar revaluation or depreciation in relation to other foreign currencies with the remaining variables remaining constant, would have a positive or a negative impact on comprehensive income as a result of foreign exchange gains or losses. We estimate that a devaluation or an appreciation of the US Dollar other currencies of 10% during the period ended September 30, 2022 would have resulted in a net pre-tax loss or gain of approximately $2.1 million.
