MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS




---

Managements Discussion & Analysis For the years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018 (In
thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts, and where otherwise noted) This managements discussion and analysis
(MD&A) of the financial condition and results of operations of HEXO Corp. (formerly The Hydropothecary Corporation) and our wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, we or us or our or
Company or HEXO) is for the year ended July 31, 2019 and 2018. HEXO is a publicly traded corporation, incorporated in Ontario, Canada. The common shares of HEXO trade under the symbol HEXO on both the Toronto
Stock Exchange (TSX) and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). This MD&A is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, our audited annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2019 and
2018. Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. All amounts presented herein are stated in Canadian
dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Notice to ReaderAs described in Note 34 of the restated the audited annual consolidated financial
statements for the year ended July 31, 2019, the Company has corrected the identified errors below. The deferred tax liability was overstated
as at July 31, 2019, as it was not offset by a deferred tax asset relating to a tax loss generated in one subsidiary against a deferred tax liability generated by a separate subsidiary. Due to the two tax positions existing in two separate
entities, the Companys original position was that they could not be offset or reduce one another. The applicable subsidiaries were amalgamated on August 1, 2019. The correction of this error resulted in a reduction of the deferred tax
liability and deficit, by $14,373, as at July 31, 2019. Additionally, net loss for the year ended July 31, 2019 was overstated by $14,373. In assessing the financial impact of subsequent events, the Company also determined additional write-down of its cannabis trim based inventory based on the
estimated fair market value due to new and available third party information resulting in an increased impairment loss on inventory of $2,417. This MD&A has been prepared by reference to the MD&A disclosure requirements established under National Instrument
51-102, Continuous Disclosure Obligations, of the Canadian Securities Administrators. Additional information regarding the Company is available on our websites at hexocorp.com/investors or through the SEDAR

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Company Overview HEXO is helping shape an entirely new legal cannabis market  in Canada and abroad. We are working to change the world; and we are just getting started. Just six years ago, two entrepreneurs set out to corner the cannabis market in Canada. Laying roots in the province of Quebec, the Company was
influential in stimulating market acceptance and support, raising significant capital in the public markets since the beginning of fiscal year 2018. We have agreements and arrangements in place to supply cannabis in nine provinces, including a
five-year supply contract with Quebecs Société québécoise du cannabis (SQDC). In total, we have governmental or private retail distribution agreements covering most major Canadian markets, reaching over
95% of the Canadian population. Our brands  HEXO and Up  are available to Canadians across the country. Today, HEXO is a consumer-packaged
goods (CPG) cannabis technology company that has increased its focus globally. We believe that building a brand comes primarily from a strong distribution system and product quality, and from making a meaningful commitment to
sustainability. Through our Hub and Spoke strategy, we are centralizing our intellectual property and branding it powered by HEXO and as we have done with Molson Coors Canada (Molson) we plan to partner with Fortune 500
companies in different facets of the CPG market, to participate in the cannabis market beginning in Canada and around the world. Fundamentally, we bring our brand value, cannabinoid isolation, formulation and delivery technology, licensed
infrastructure and regulatory expertise to established companies, and in turn, we plan to leverage their international distribution, base products and their deep understanding of consumer markets. We aim to provide a clear, legal regulatory path into worldwide markets and best in class technology to our current and future partners. We believe the U.S.
represents a significant market in the evolution of the cannabis industry, and that to establish global cannabis brands, our goal is to be successful there. As the U.S. market continues to develop, we intend to bring American consumers innovative,
consistent, and high-quality hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) infused products powered by HEXO. Through these partnerships, we plan to focus on large-scale CBD extraction from hemp, providing high quality ingredients to our
current and future Fortune 500 partners, as well as hemp derivative wholesaling. We have a history of innovation driven by our experienced management
team. Under their leadership, we are building a robust research and development team to deliver the cannabis experiences sought by the market. We are among the cannabis industrys top innovators, with award-winning products such as Elixir,
Canadas first line of cannabis peppermint oil sublingual sprays, and decarb, an activated cannabis powder designed for oral consumption. We are also pioneering a line of sexual health products with Fleur de Lune and have won top awards for the
quality of our pre-rolled cannabis products. Our ability to develop consistent advanced cannabis formulations for use in world-renowned brands  beverages, food, cosmetics, and more  has already
garnered the attention of Molson and resulted in the creation of Truss, an exclusive venture to develop non-alcoholic, cannabis-infused beverages. Our Innovation team is structured across three pillars,
Clinical Evaluation, Advanced Research and Applied Research. We employ researchers and PHDs from extensive product development backgrounds driving the execution of better, scientifically supported, cannabis-based experiences. Our goal is to become a top global cannabis company with top market share in Canada.After establishing a strong presence within our home market of
Quebec, we are expanding nationally on a larger scale. Our objective is to execute on our existing supply agreements and arrangements with entities across nine provinces, and to successfully manage our distribution centre responsible for all SQDC
online sale cannabis distribution. We also possess a strategic relationship with the private cannabis retailer Spirit Leaf. This private retail presence will allow us to expand our expected distribution presence within these provinces.  4

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

During the period we completed the acquisition of Newstrike Brands Ltd (Newstrike). This
acquisition further strengthens HEXOs presence within Canada by adding Up, a reputable brand already established within the cannabis adult-use market, to HEXOs house of brands. Along with the
brand, HEXO acquired several supply agreements and an additional private retail partnership to its national distribution network. Ultimately, we know
that if we want to achieve our goals, we need to think about more than just our products and prices. We must also examine the way our operations impact the natural and social environment on a local, provincial and national level. HEXO is monitoring
and reporting on its greenhouse gas emissions, setting targets to reduce them, and offsetting its footprint. As members of the Global Cannabis Partnership, we will also be reporting on other Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) impact areas
based on Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI) standards. The global cannabis market is estimated to reach $250 billion in the next ten years.1 HEXO believes that in a few years, a handful of companies will control 70% of global market share and we believe HEXO is poised to be one of those companies.2 To date, we have sold over 10.8 million grams of adult-use
and medical cannabis to thousands of Canadians who count on us for safe and reputable, high-quality products. We have developed an extensive and award-winning product range, and gained valuable experience and knowledge, while serving our customers. We currently hold approximately 1.3 million sq. ft. of operating space at our home base Gatineau campus. In addition, we have leased 579,000 sq. ft.
of industrial real estate for manufacturing, distribution and product research and development needs in Belleville, Ontario, with rights of first offer and first refusal to lease the remaining space in the 1.5 million sq. ft. facility; another
58,000 sq. ft. of leased distribution space in Montreal, Quebec, and an additional 469,000 sq. ft. in Brantford and Niagara once fully retrofitted. Once licensed, HEXO also plans to operate a 14,200 sq. ft. food research laboratory in Vaughan,
Ontario and a 19,600 sq. ft. laboratory in Montreal, Quebec. We are currently dual listed on the TSX and the NYSE and in doing so have increased
HEXOs access to the United States and global investors. We do not, and do not intend to, engage in direct or indirect business with any business
that derives revenue, directly or indirectly, from the sale of cannabis, cannabis products or cannabinoid-containing products in any jurisdiction where the sale of cannabis is unlawful under applicable laws. HEXO does not currently engage in any
unlawful U.S. marijuana-related activities as defined in Canadian Securities Administrators Staff Notice 51-352, and will only do so in the future to the extent fully legal under all applicable U.S. federal
and state laws. Strategic Priorities Since
inception, we have laid the foundation to be a world leader that serves both adult-use and medical cannabis markets. In everything we do  innovation, cultivation, production, product development,
distribution  we exercise rigor in order to offer adult-use consumers and medical cannabis patients uncompromising quality and safety. We believe that we can leverage our demonstrated success in Canada
as we expand to global cannabis markets. Our strategy sees us becoming part of the top three global cannabis companies, with a top two market share in
Canada. Our strategy is built on three pillars: operational scalability, innovative products and brand leadership. To achieve brand leadership, we will set up the legal, physical, and human capital infrastructure to participate in legal
markets across the globe. We plan to invest in even better, science-backed cannabis experiences, and we look to partner with Fortune 500 companies to leverage their base products, international distribution platforms and deep understanding of the
consumer occasion in their respective verticals. Given the different regulations governing the sale of adult-use
cannabis across Canada, the number of large-scale licensed producers and todays limited but growing cultivation capacity, among other factors, we believe the initial years following legalization will be the most critical in determining the
future shape of the cannabis industry in Canada, and that early distribution and financial performance will be critical to securing a market leader position. For this and other reasons, we have deliberately set out to build a strong position in our initial jurisdiction, Quebec, while making strategic inroads in
select other markets across the country through provincial supply agreements and private retail partnerships. Now having entered the adult-use market as one of the largest producers and suppliers by market
capitalization, we are looking beyond the Canadian border to take HEXO international, where regulations permit. We are making continuous efforts to assess global opportunities in current and future medical and
adult-use markets.   1

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

We have positioned ourselves to meet the smokeless cannabis demand through our venture with Molson, our
first partner within our Hub and Spoke business model. We expect to launch a full line of beverage products in partnership with Molson through our venture, Truss. We currently expect regulations to allow these products to be made available for
consumption during the first six months of calendar 2020. We continue to explore other opportunities for analogous ventures to introduce into the cannabis market. Even as we continue to execute on our business plans in Quebec, Ontario and across the
country, we believe we have established ourself as a desirable business partner for cannabis control authorities, private retail, and potential Fortune 500 joint-arrangement partners in Canada.3 As the cannabis and cannabis derivative markets evolve, we are constantly assessing and implementing ways to integrate our quality products with the
product offerings of Fortune 500 companies and become a premium branded partner for CPG companies. We will seek to accomplish this through several means: by providing our prospective partners regulatory access to legal markets as well as
distribution infrastructure and delivery systems across most provinces; by offering best in class technology through innovative product development and a strong IP portfolio. HEXO CORP HUB AND SPOKE BUSINESS MODEL  LOGO We have taken significant steps to ensure that we are prepared to meet the future demand of the CBD derivative product
markets within Canada and globally. This includes having secured a large and steady supply of quality hemp for product transformation at our Belleville Centre of Excellence once the facility is fully licensed and completed. During the period, we established the joint entity Keystone Isolation Technologies Inc. (KIT) of which HEXO holds a 60% interest. Through KIT we
have obtained high capacity, top echelon technology for cleaning outdoor field hemp of harmful pesticides, which we believe gives us an edge in bringing quality extracts to the U.S. We believe KIT will provide the Company with high quality
extraction technology to facilitate an efficiently processed and consistent supply of CBD and THC to supply the Canadian and U.S. markets for cannabis derivatives. We have eight high CBD hemp strains in tissue culture in partnership with the University of Guelph as we are preparing the groundwork to evolve to a field
sourced, forward contract supply model in the U.S., applying our strong quality assurance, control protocols, and hemp genetics to our farming partnerships.   3
Based on: (i) the Companys relationship with the SQDC including its management of the warehouse and
distribution centre for Quebec adult-use webstore orders for the SQDC with Metro Supply Chain Group Inc.; (ii) the Companys products being present in sales channels across all provinces in both public
and private retail channels; (iii) the Companys joint venture with Molson Coors; and (iv) the nature of the Companys Belleville, Ontario facility, the capacity and production capabilities of which enable the flexible and
scalable manufacturing of advanced cannabis products, including cosmetics, vapes, non-alcoholic beverages and other edibles that would be required for potential joint-ventures, as evidenced by the conduct of
the joint venture with Molson Coors at the facility.  6

Our commitment to quality and safety is supported by our compliance with Health Canadas stringent
quality control requirements, our top of the line production system, full seed-to-sale traceability, third party independent testing and an online system to post our
product testing results. HEXO U.S. The U.S.
cannabis market represents the Companys next significant growth opportunity. During the period the Company established its wholly owned U.S.
based entity HEXO USA Inc on May 19, 2019, to be a leading partner for CPG expansion. KIT will allow HEXO to supply future American CPG partners
with powered by HEXO hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD) experiences and enter the market in a strategic position to begin generating revenues by leveraging the Companys experience in cannabis. KITs purpose is to
provide a scalable, efficient, cost effective and reliable extraction and isolation of CBD from hemp to fulfil demand for our powered by HEXO emulsifications. We believe that strategic partners will be able to benefit from HEXOs innovative product development, advanced research and development, intellectual
property portfolio (pending patent approvals), low production cost, licensed infrastructure and regulatory know-how. These same strategic partnerships will provide the Company with established global
distribution platforms and product expertise. The Company is aiming to enter select U.S. states over the course of the next fiscal year and is taking
important strides to offer its powered by HEXO products through KIT and our future partners, to the U.S. CBD markets, to the extent that such activities fully comply with applicable U.S. federal and state laws, including U.S. Food and
Drug Administration requirements. THREE STRATEGIC PILLARS  LOGO Scalability We have
been cultivating cannabis for five years under the Cannabis Act of 2018 regulatory regime and its predecessor (Cannabis Regulations), growing and producing high-quality cannabis with consistent yields. We are constantly evaluating and
updating our cultivating practices and technology to further drive efficiencies.  7

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

We chose to initially locate in Gatineau, Quebec, because we believe the province offers the ideal
conditions for cannabis production: is an abundant supply of renewable electricity at competitive rates, combined with abundant water resources and the availability of skilled people. We have expanded our cultivation footprint into Ontario through
the acquisition of Newstrike. On the border of Canadas two largest consumer markets, Quebec and Ontario, our main campus in Gatineau positions us
in close proximity to two of the countrys major urban areas, Greater Montreal and the National Capital Region. Furthermore, our 579,000 sq. ft. Belleville Centre of Excellence, which is currently undergoing leasehold retrofitting and Health
Canada licensing, is ideally situated in Belleville, Ontario between the National Capital Region and Toronto. Our Gatineau campus includes several
facilities representing a total of 1,310,000 sq. ft. The Gatineau campus includes our original 7,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a 35,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a 250,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a warehouse, two stand-alone laboratories, two modular buildings for
final packaging and customer service, and our 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse all located on our 143-acre land parcel. Our Newstrike campuses located in Brantford and Niagara Ontario contribute 14,000 sq. ft. and 455,000 sq. ft. (once fully retrofitted) respectively, across
17.6 acres of land. We have expanded into Europe through HEXO MED S.A. (HEXO MED), a venture with our partner QNBS P.C. HEXO MED will result
in potential additional production capacity and a Eurozone foothold to serve the legal cannabis markets in the United Kingdom, France and other jurisdictions where regulations permit. HEXO MEDs plans include the development of a 350,000 sq.
ft. licensed facility in Greece. HEXO currently holds a 51% interest in the venture. We have accumulated a strong and skillful workforce, as well as a
top management group which provides cannabis-specific industry expertise and other relevant business knowledge derived from a variety of industries and markets.  8

HEXOS FACILITIES The following provides information about HEXOs facilities:  Gatineau, Quebec

HEXOs Gatineau, Quebec facility is its main cultivation facility, featuring 1,292,000 sq. ft. of greenhouse cultivation space and
10,000 sq. ft. of advanced automated manufacturing space on a 143-acre campus. The greenhouse space is comprised of a 7,000 sq. ft. greenhouse, a 35,000 sq. ft. greenhouse completed in 2016, a 250,000 sq. ft.
greenhouse completed in June 2018 and a 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse completed in December 2018, known as Building 9 or B9. Except as noted below, the facility is fully licensed by Health Canada (Standard Cultivation, Standard Processing, Sale
for Medical Purposes and Research) and fully operational.  When construction on B9
started in January 2018, the initial budget for the facility was approximately $157,000 in construction costs and acquisition of production and transformation equipment for operations. It was expected construction of the facility would be completed
in December 2018 and that it would be licensed by Health Canada and become operational soon thereafter in phases as internal fit up of various zones in the facility was completed post-construction and following inspections by Health Canada and
subject to its then prevailing processing times. Construction of the facility was substantially completed and a first phase of the facility was licensed in December 2018, while work continued in completing the fit up of additional zones and
obtaining additional phased licensing. A first harvest in this facility was completed in Aril 2019. As of October 31, 2019, the fit up of the facility was substantially complete subject to ongoing work on a final 5th phase additional
cultivation zone, additional fit up of shipping and packaging areas, administrative space and front of house space and ongoing and evolving modifications to the facilitys infrastructure for constant yield and production improvement. As of
July 31, 2019, the Company had spent approximately $103,258, and the budget had been revised down to approximately $143,318 through scaling back ancillary capital needs and equipment in order to help reduce capital spending within the first
quarter of fiscal 2020. Accordingly, as at July 31, 2019, budgeted expenditures of approximately $40,060 remained to complete the final 5th phase, additional fit up of shipping and packaging
areas, administrative space and front of house space and ongoing and evolving modifications to the facilitys infrastructure for constant yield and production improvement.
 Activities in 200,000 sq. ft. comprising the final 5th phase additional cultivation zone
of B9 were suspended by the Company in October 2019 as part of the Companys cost-cutting measures. Activities in this phase may be recommenced when warranted by market conditions, and if they are recommenced in this phase, the remaining budget
specific to its completion is expected to be approximately $5 million (within the overall remaining budgeted expenditures of approximately $40,060).Brantford, Ontario

HEXOs Brantford, Ontario facility is an additional cultivation facility, featuring 14,000 sq. ft. of indoor growing space on 1 acre of land, which was acquired through HEXOs acquisition of Newstrike. The facility was
designed and engineered to permit pharmaceutical-quality management standards utilized by Canadas pharmaceutical manufacturers to be used in the production of cannabis in all acceptable forms. The facility is fully licensed by Health Canada
(Standard Cultivation, Standard Processing and Sale for Medical Purposes) and fully operational.Niagara, Ontario

HEXOs Niagara, Ontario facility is an additional cultivation facility, featuring 455,000 sq. ft. of greenhouse cultivation space (once
retrofitted) on 16.6 acres of land, which was acquired through HEXOs acquisition of Newstrike. The facility was previously a fully automated, modern Dutch-Tray 200,000 sq. ft. facility, and is undergoing retrofitting and expansion
to 455,000 sq. ft. The facility is fully licensed by Health Canada (Standard Cultivation, Standard Processing and Sale for Medical Purposes). The facility is not currently operational.
 Operations at the facility were suspended by the Company in October 2019 as part of the
Companys cost-cutting measures to rightsize its operations given current market conditions and over-capacity in the market and with a view to profitability and sustainability.4 The
retrofitting and expansion of the facility, which was previously expected to be completed by the end of January 2020, was not completed prior to the suspension of operations at the facility. In the event that operations at the facility are
recommenced, the retrofitting and expansion will need to be completed. The Company is forecasting expenditures in the amount of approximately $1.5 million to complete the retrofitting and expansion.  4
Suspension of the Companys operations at the facility was not related to the discovery by the Company
following its acquisition of Newstrike that cannabis being grown in Block B of the facility was not adequately licensed, as announced by the Company on November 15, 2019. This clarifying disclosure is being provided by the Company at the
request of the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) in connection with the continuous disclosure review by the OSC of the Companys disclosure record.  9

Belleville, Ontario

HEXOs Belleville, Ontario facility is its planned Belleville Centre of Excellence for advanced processing and manufacturing,
distribution and product research and development, featuring 579,000 sq. ft. of leased commercial space within a larger 2,004,000 sq. ft. industrial facility, with rights of first offer and first refusal to lease the remaining space in the facility.
The facility is planned to be the Companys main production facility for processing, extraction and packaging, research and development and the manufacture of ancillary cannabis products. It is also planned to serve as the Companys Centre
of Excellence for joint ventures. The Companys Truss venture with Molson Coors Canada is planned to operate at this facility, including under HEXOs license until Truss obtains a separate license from Health Canada. The facility is owned
by Belleville Complex Inc., 25% of which is owned by the Company and the balance of which is owned by Olegna Holdings Inc., a company affiliated with a director of the Company, Vincent Chiara.
 When construction on the Belleville facility started in January 2019, the initial budget
for the facility was approximately $188,000 in improvements and acquisition of production and transformation equipment for operations. It was expected construction of the facility would be completed in phases, with substantial completion being
achieved in April 2019, and that it would be licensed by Health Canada and become operational in phases soon thereafter as additional phases of construction work for internal fit up of various zones in the facility was completed and following
inspections by Health Canada and subject to its then prevailing processing times. In October 2019, construction of the facility was substantially completed, the facility was licensed by Health Canada (Standard Processing and Sale for Medical
Purposes) and operations commenced at the facility for certain packaging activities permitted by this licence. HEXO has applied for an amendment to the licence to include additional non-medical sales
activities, including derivative products. This amended licensing of the facility by Health Canada is dependent on completion of certain additional construction work for additional fit-ups required for the
activities associated with this licensing and Health Canada inspection and is subject to then prevailing Health Canada processing times. HEXO expects to obtain this amendment in or around April 2020, following which final phases of the
facilitys fit up and equipment installation and modification will occur, which is expected to be completed in the later half of fiscal 2020. 
As at July 31, 2019, approximately $54,000 had been incurred and the budget was revised to approximately $128,396 as the Company scaled back the
facilitys receiving/storage space, processing rooms and staff support/office area for savings of about $55,000. An additional, $5,000 was added to the budget to accommodate the new strategy of Truss operating under HEXOs license within
the facility until Truss obtains a separate license. Accordingly, as at July 31, 2019, budgeted expenditures of approximately $74,396 remained to bring the facility to a position for non-medical sales and
derivative product sales licensing, as well as operational efficiency and improvement needs which do not necessarily correlate to the licensing timeline of the facility.Montreal, Quebec (distribution)

HEXOs Montreal Quebec distribution facility is a warehouse and distribution centre, featuring 58,000 sq. ft. of leased commercial space. The facility serves as a warehouse and distribution centre for Quebec adult-use webstore orders for the SQDC, which are managed for the SQDC by HEXO and Metro Supply Chain Group Inc. It houses product from all the licensed producers who have contracts with the SQDC and serves as the
sole distribution point for all direct-to-consumer shipments within the Province of Quebec for orders placed through the SQDC online webstore. This facility is fully
operational, having commenced operations in October 2018. This facility is regulated by the SQDC and does not require licensing by Health Canada.Vaughan, Ontario

HEXOs Vaughan, Ontario facility is its planned food research laboratory for the development of edible products and related intellectual property, featuring 14,200 sq. ft. of leased commercial space. The build out of this
facility, which includes a sensory testing area and a complete commercial kitchen, is expected to be completed in March 2020 and is close to completion. Total estimated construction costs for the facility are approximately $1.1 million. The
facility is not yet licensed by Health Canada. Licensing of the facility by Health Canada is dependent on completion of construction and Health Canada inspection and is subject to then prevailing Health Canada processing times. As at July 31,
2019, material fit up construction activities were yet to commence.Montreal, Quebec (research)

Product Innovation Empowering the world to have safe and pleasurable cannabis experiences powered by HEXO technology. Our strategic priorities reflect our belief that companies that achieve large-scale distribution and high brand awareness will drive long-term shareholder
value in our industry. We aim to be the best partner for provincial cannabis distribution and retail authorities, while being recognized for delivering our powered by HEXO experiences across the full spectrum of products, price points
and delivery methods. As we develop our consumer-focused product innovation plan, we continue to build on our cannabis experience concepts such as
sleep, sport, focus, diet, sex and fun, which will deliver fast on-set response and reliable off-set timing. These experience concepts will provide a valuable
resource for consumers selecting appropriate products for their respective needs. Sleep  to relax and quiet the mind Sport  to be active and energetic, recover quicker and reduce inflammation Focus  to be alert, concentrated and more productive Diet
 to help curb desire for food Sex  to bring intimacy and arousal Fun  to enjoy social gatherings We continue to prepare to
take advantage of opportunities in the edibles market, which is expected to launch in Canada in late calendar 2019 or early 2020. Products that we intend to introduce include, but are not limited to vapes, edibles such as confectionary and baked
goods, cosmetics, and non-alcoholic beverages through our venture with Molson Coors Canada. Our focus on
research, innovation and product development also reflects our strategic priorities. Our Chief Innovation Officer who benefits from 25 years of experience in CPG innovation and her team are actively exploring ways to increase our expertise related
to cannabis applications and forms of delivery, and to expand our product range and brand portfolio. Activities include current and potential partnerships, ventures and strategic acquisitions of intellectual property and related transactions. To date the Company has filed 38 patent applications related to various formulations, vape devices, beverages, cultivation and extraction technologies as well
as other areas. During the period, we acquired two new research facilities to further strengthen our IP portfolio and produce unique value-added products
to the cannabis derivative market. Once licensed and completed, the new 14,200 sq. ft facility in Vaughan, Ontario will serve as the Companys food laboratory in which confectionary and edible product research and development will take place.
The second additional facility in Montreal, Quebec will also house general research and development activity in the 19,600 sq. ft. space when licensed and completed. The cannabis industry has already recognized us as an innovative leader, as demonstrated by our award-winning products Elixir and decarb. We also offer Fleur
de Lune, one of Canadas first intimate-use cannabis oils. Beyond the funds required for our currently
planned investments in cultivation, distribution and processing capacity, we expect to allocate the majority of our capital to branding, product innovation, international expansion and production, while remaining alert for strategic transactions
that create shareholder value. An element of this focus is the development of our Belleville, Ontario facility, which, once fully licensed and completed will house manufacturing, distribution and product research and development activities for the
Company and its future products, as well as the operations of our Truss venture. Full licensing of this facility is dependent on completion of construction and Health Canada inspection and is subject to then prevailing Health Canada processing
times. This approach will directly support our continued leadership position in the Canadian cannabis market  as both a distributor and a product innovator. Brand Leadership Striving to create a sustainable,
notable and beloved brand. HEXO shares the broad industry view that brands will win long term; however, we have a controversial view that brands
dont exist today in the cannabis industry. Our companies have logos but little brand recognition in our markets, due in great part to highly restrictive marketing rules as set out by our regulators. The best brands have achieved less than 10%
spontaneous awareness, based on the Companys analysis of third-party research data. HEXO tracks consumer awareness of all the major cannabis brands and, although we believe HEXO is in the top tiers of awareness compared to peers, all cannabis
companies are completely underrecognized relative to large CPG global brands. We believe that HEXO can build a global house of brands, but we will only declare success once we have 80% spontaneous awareness in select markets.  11

LOGO The goal of HEXO is to continue to offer a diverse house of brands, representing innovation, quality and consistency of
experience, and become a top two Canadian market share brand with a top three global market share position. We believe that the key to doing this is by creating brands that resonate with consumers across market segments.  LOGO Original Stash ADULT-USE Subsequent to the end of fiscal 2019, HEXO broadened its house of brands to include Original Stash, a mass
market brand that goes back to why we consume cannabis: for the simple pleasure it gives us. Original Stash is focused on frequent Canadian cannabis consumers, who want quality cannabis, but are conscious of legal market premiums. PRODUCT OFFERINGS Under our Original Stash brand, HEXO
continues to disrupt the market with our first product offering of OS.210, a 28-gram blend of cannabis flower. This volume format is the first of its kind in the legal Canadian market, and HEXO is proud to be
able to bring it to Canadian consumers.  12

cannabis that the market has come to expect from its former medical sister brand, Hydropothecary. The former Hydropothecary medical brand has integrated under the HEXO brand name.  13

PRODUCT OFFERINGS Currently, HEXO offers 37 product offering variations of its dried cannabis and cannabis-derived products under two product types: dried  flower, milled
and pre roll; and oils  Elixir and Fleur de Lune. Flower, Milled and Pre Roll The HEXO
adult-use brand offers a relatively wide spectrum of CBD and THC levels, through sativa, hybrid and indica plant strains. HEXO offers flower products and milled cannabis products in 3.5g and 15g formats. HEXO
also carries pre roll products. Elixir and Fleur de LuneElixir, a cannabis oil sublingual spray product line, includes both a high
tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), high CBD and 1:1 content, and is Canadas only peppermint-based cannabis oil product. All three products are also available in an MCT carrier oil. Fleur de Lune is one of Canadas first
cannabis-based THC intimate oils. Both products provide alternative, smokeless methods to consume cannabis. HEXO offers six oil-based spray products as well as an
intimate-use oil product. HEXO recently was the winner of the 2019 OCannabiz Industry Awards for best
sativa for its pre-rolls and Helios dried flower. HEXOs Elixir won the Cannabis Product of the Year and Innovation of the Year awards at the 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards. HEXO
was also nominated for Brand of the Year. Our decarb product was voted Top New Product at the 2017 Canadian Cannabis Awards.  LOGO UP ADULT-USE During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company added the Up brand to its suite of offerings. The Up
brand lives within HEXOs house of brands portfolio, and is rapidly establishing itself as a prominent player in the adult-use cannabis market. With a strong connection to music, its premium quality
products are grown on tunes, a unique growing methodology that runs through the entire plants lifecycle. That, together with a strategic partnership with the Tragically Hip, provides a solid foundation for clear market
differentiation. PRODUCT OFFERINGS Currently, Up
offers 12 dried flower and pre-roll products across 8 provinces. Similar to the HEXO offerings, the Up adult-use brand offers a spectrum of CBD and THC levels, through
its sativa, hybrid and indica plant strains. These products are offered in a range of 1g, 3.5g and 7g formats.  14

LOGO Distribution Processing and distribution capacity has significantly increased over the past fiscal year, with the activation and full licensing of our 250,000 sq. ft.
greenhouse and a new 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse, each at our Gatineau campus. Additionally, through our acquisition of Newstrike, we acquired a
state-of-the-art greenhouse and an indoor production facility with production and distribution capabilities currently being
retrofitted and estimated to be completed for the end of Q1 to early Q2 of fiscal 2020. The Company has acquired an interest in a 2.0 million sq.
ft. facility in Belleville, Ontario, through the venture Belleville Complex Inc. established with a related party. The Company received the renewal of its Health Canada licensing for the Gatineau facilities on October 16, 2019 and continues to
retrofit the Belleville Centre of Excellence ahead of licensing for the purposes of manufacturing value-added cannabis products, increasing capacity for distribution and storage and research and development activities. The Company currently holds a
lease to 579,000 sq. ft. of the Belleville facility and has rights of first offer and first refusal to lease the remaining space in the building. Once licensed and completed, the Belleville Centre of Excellence will act as the main research,
development and processing facility for HEXOs cannabis derivative products. The process of licensing the full 1.5 million sq. ft Belleville
Centre of Excellence in phases and ensuring it meets the requirements of the Cannabis Regulations may impact the initial operational timeline of the facility. However, this will provide the Company with the opportunity to offer its prospective
partners with turn-key access to a cannabis sector ready facility. The centralized location of the facility, the Companys first outside of Quebec is ideally situated along primary shipping routes to
distribute our products and fulfill commitments across Canada. This facility further delivers on our national expansion strategy and ensures necessary capacity for the manufacture of advanced cannabis products, including vapes, non-alcoholic beverages, other edible cannabis products and cosmetics. The Company has also bolstered its distribution
capacity with the establishment of a distribution and storage centre in Montreal, Quebec formed with Metro Supply Chain Inc. This 58,000 sq. ft. facility was strategically acquired for logistical purposes. Through it, we supply cannabis for all direct-to-customer sales placed in Quebec through the SQDCs online store. Additionally, we house, supply and distribute direct-to-customers the cannabis products of all licensed producers who have contracts with the SQDC through this distribution centre.  15

Canadian Cannabis Market On October 17, 2018, Canada became the largest nation in the world to offer medical and non-medical, adult-use cannabis nationally. The legalization of the adult-use market on this date resulted in $43 million of sales within the first two weeks according to Statistics
Canada. In the 10 weeks between October 17th and December 31, 2018, Canadians purchased more than 20,650 kg of dried cannabis and 20,096 liters of cannabis oil according to Statistics
Canada. As demand continues to grow, public and private distribution channels become fully established and with the legalization of the edibles market on the horizon, HEXO believes it is strategically positioned to serve these markets through our
partnerships, production capacity and supply contracts. All provinces and territories have established their respective cannabis market retail approach,
ranging from private entities to government-owned retail, as well as a combined approach in several jurisdictions. We have positioned ourselves through supply agreements and arrangements for distribution within Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia,
Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Quebec, where we hold Canadas largest single supply agreement. We have also made strategic investments in the private cannabis retail sector. The result: our
award-winning and innovative products are available in nine provinces in Canada. Retail distribution channels by province and territory:  LOGO RETAIL DISTRIBUTION BY PROVINCE  LOGO  17

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

QUEBEC In Quebec, which has a population of 8.4 million, or approximately 23% of the Canadian population, the SQDC operates the sale and distribution of adult-use cannabis. The SQDC has established 21 retail locations throughout the province, for in-store cannabis sales. It expects to increase this number to 43 locations by
March 2020. It also sells cannabis online. The Company has a five-year supply contract with SQDC. During the first year post-legalization, HEXO sold
approximately 10 tonnes of cannabis under this contract, achieving an estimated 33% market share in Quebec based on volume sold and sell through data provided by the SQDC, in line with our market share goal. Although total sales for the first year
did not reach the 20 tonnes originally expected under the contract, our actual sales relative to expectations were proportionate to total sales by the SQDC, which only had initial sell-through in year one of roughly half of the total amount it had
expected to purchase from all licensed producers. While the Company had a right under the contract to require the SQDC to purchase the full 20 tonnes during the first year of the agreement,5 the
Company did not seek to enforce this right on the belief that it would be short sighted given the general results in the industry and the SQDCs initial sell-through and from the perspective of its overall business relationship with the SQDC
and its position in Quebec. While HEXO did not achieve the expected volume for year 1, it met its goal of achieving a premiere market share in Quebec and remains a preferred supplier to the SQDC. While we continue to strive towards maximizing our annual sales with the SQDC, as of the date of this MD&A, based on current market conditions, which
include, but are not limited to, a continuation of fewer brick and mortar SQDC stores than originally scheduled for initial rollout and evolving and more restrictive provincial regulation over cannabis consumption, we no longer expect to achieve the
previously anticipated 35 tonnes in the second year of legalization under our contract with the SQDC, and if these conditions continue, we expect we will not likely achieve the previously anticipated 45 tonnes in the third year of legalization under
our contract with the SQDC either. As previously disclosed by the Company, both of these amounts are non-binding targets and there are no requirements for the SQDC to purchase these amounts. Until there is
greater clarity and stability of market conditions, it is difficult for the Company to predict with any degree of certainty what sales levels may be expected or achieved. In any event, we remain a preferred supplier of the SQDC as we continue to
expand our product offerings and achieve maximum sales based on the demands of consumers and current and evolving market conditions. We currently supply the SQDC with HEXOs Elixir, THC and CBD formulas, and dried cannabis products. In addition, and separate from the five-year supply contract we have with the SQDC, we have a distribution agreement with the SQDC under which we manage, with
Metro Supply Chain Group Inc., the warehouse and distribution of products from all licensed producers who have contracts with the SQDC for all direct-to-consumer
shipments within the Province of Quebec for Quebec adult-use orders placed through the SQDCs online webstore. In consideration for its services in managing the warehouse and distribution of these
products under the agreement, the Company earns management fees from the SQDC, which are reflected as ancillary revenue in our financial statements. ONTARIO In Ontario, which has a population of
14.4 million, or approximately 39% of the Canadian population, the government currently offers consumers a variety of cannabis products through online sales by the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS). The province also allows privately
owned retail including 23 initially licensed locations that serve the adult-use market. Initial product listings include dried cannabis, oil and capsule products,
pre-rolled, and clones and seeds. We currently hold supply agreements with the OCS, in which we supply the
province with HEXOs Elixir, THC and CBD formulas and Fleur de Lune, and dried cannabis products, as well as a variety of dried flower products under the Up brand. HEXO and Up also are currently present within over 23 private retailers
throughout the province. This approach will allow us to serve the diverse market demand of Ontario with a variety of combustible and smokeless cannabis products. BRITISH COLUMBIA British Columbia, which has a
population of 5.0 million, or approximately 13% of the Canadian population, serves the adult-use cannabis market through a dual privategovernment approach. The British Columbia Liquor Distribution
Branch (BCLDB) manages the distribution of cannabis and cannabis-based products. We hold supply agreements with the BCLDB, in which we supply our HEXO THC and CBD oil-based Elixir and HEXO Fleur de
Lune products and Up brand products.   5

ALBERTA The Company has received cannabis representative status with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Board to supply it with products offered online and in
stores. This will allow HEXO to supply our award-winning THC and CBD oil-based Elixir products as well as nine dried flower cannabis products. HEXO and Up products will be made available to the
4.3 million residents or approximately 12% of the total Canadian population. OTHER OBTAINED CANADIAN MARKETS We currently have established distribution channels within 5 additional provincial markets including Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Manitoba and
Prince Edward Island which represent 12% of the Canadian population. These channels include both supply agreements and supplier arrangements with provincial governments and private retailers. Canadian Adult-Use Market 2.0 Canadian legalization of additional cannabis derivative product categories occurred in October 2019, and distribution is expected to commence during the first
six months of calendar 2020. The Company is working to ensure it meets expected market demands and continues to prepare for its edibles market product offerings. Initially, HEXO intends to meet the cannabis derivative market with our premium vapes
and beverage products, followed by the roll out of our gummies and chocolate product offerings. We plan to add product offerings to the portfolio over time. Through HEXOs proven innovation capability and quality cannabis that the current adult-use market has come to expect, this new platform for cannabis derivative products offers us the ability to target curious new adult-use clientele and attract consumers
who may otherwise purchase cannabis from unlicenced dispensaries and black market participants. We will do this by offering legal, safe, consistent, tested and appealing new product options. Having previously announced its intention to focus on research, development and innovation, HEXO took another step towards this goal in establishing two new
laboratory and development centres in Montreal, Quebec and Vaughan, Ontario. Once licensed and complete, the locations will serve as global research and development hubs for the Companys Innovation, Development and Engineering (IDE) led by
HEXOs Chief Innovation Officer, Veronique Hamel. The team brings together extensive experience in research and development, sensory science, clinical evaluation, biotechnology and food engineering. The HEXO IDE team has sweeping experience in the food, pharma and CPG industries with accumulated career experience with Coca Cola, Altria Group, Mondelez
International, Kelloggs, Unilever, Church and Dwight, Shoppers Drugmart, Loblaws, Kerrs Bros. and Campbells Soup Company. For example, the teams Director of Research & Development  Edibles, Trina Farr,
has more than 20 years of experience in food innovation and product development and was most recently the Director of Research and Development at Smuckers Foods of Canada. HEXO is also proud to have its own
in-house cannabis-infused chocolates expert. Focused on creating a cannabis chocolates experience, Canna Chocolatier Todd Neault is working on formulating fast-acting, consistent and delectable chocolates. HEXO is focused on developing a product portfolio that is guided by a deep understanding of consumer needs. To better understand these needs, a variety
of research methodologies have been deployed by a third-party research provider in select markets in Canada and the U.S. These methodologies include, but are not limited to:  

Segmentation: A way of viewing the market as a series of sub-groups
rather than a whole. Members of each sub-group had similar traits but were distinct from other sub-groups.  

Qualitative Research & Ethnographies: A methodology of collecting consumer insights which involves face-
to-face interaction and the observation (and questioning) of behaviours to better understand the person. Leveraging the insights weve collected  and will continue to collect  HEXO is committed to developing products and formulations that not
only meet, but exceed, the evolving needs of consumers. Recognizing that innovation is always evolving, HEXO will make significant investments in
fine-tuning our technologies to enhance consistency, predictability, and safety across our range of cannabis products and experiences. To ensure it can
bring an expanded offering to market, the Company boasts a multi-year extraction agreement with Valens GroWorks Corp. Once licensed and completed, the Company will also have mass-scale extraction capabilities at its Belleville Centre of Excellence.
HEXO also recently announced the appointment of Donald Courtney as Chief Operating Officer, who has extensive experience with several global food and beverage organizations including Mars Inc, Pepsi Bottling Group and Vincor International.  19

LOGO Acquisition of Newstrike Brands Ltd. THE TRANSACTION On May 24, 2019, the Company
acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Newstrike through a plan of arrangement. Under the arrangement, each former Newstrike common share was exchanged for 0.06332 of a HEXO common share (the Exchange Ratio), subject
to certain exceptions. In addition, all issued and outstanding stock options of Newstrike were replaced with stock options of HEXO having the same terms but adjusted for the Exchange Ratio, and all issued and outstanding common share purchase
warrants of Newstrike became exercisable for HEXO common shares adjusted for the Exchange Ratio. Following the acquisition, the Newstrike shares were
delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV) as at the close of trading on May 29, 2019. Certain classes of Newstrike warrants which were listed for trading on the TSXV under the symbol HIP.WT and HIP.WT.A will continue to trade on
the TSXV until the earliest to occur of their exercise, expiry or delisting. As a result of the acquisition, the Company issued a total of 35,394,041
common shares to the former shareholders of Newstrike, and reserved an additional 2,002,365 and 7,196,164 common shares for issuance to the former holders of the Newstrike options and the holders of the Newstrike warrants, respectively. INTRODUCTION Newstrike is the parent company of Up
Cannabis Inc (Up), a licensed producer of cannabis based out of Ontario that is licensed under the Cannabis Regulations to both cultivate and sell cannabis in all acceptable forms. Newstrike, through Up and together with select strategic
partners, including Canadas iconic musicians The Tragically Hip, has established of a diverse network of high-quality cannabis brands. ACQUISITION HIGHLIGHTS Facilities &
Cultivation Boost The acquisition of Newstrike added two additional facilities to the HEXO group, one in Niagara, Ontario and the other in Brantford,
Ontario. The Niagara facility is a 240,000 sq. ft fully automated, modern Dutch-Tray facility, consisting of 186,400 sq. ft licensed for
production and cultivation, with the remaining space allocated to administration, packaging and shipping/receiving areas. The facility is currently capable of producing up to 20,000 kg of dried cannabis annually. This facility is situated on
approximately 16.6 acre of land and received its cultivation licence under the Cannabis Act on March 29, 2018.The Niagara facility is currently undergoing a retrofit which is expected to be completed during the end of Q1 to early Q2, fiscal
2020. Once completed, the retrofit will add approximately 215,000 sq. ft. of additional space and will bring the total Niagara campus to approximately 455,000 sq. ft. of cultivation, production, packaging, shipping and administrative space. On October 24, 2019, the Company announced that it has taken steps to reduce its workforce. The Company is rightsizing its operations to adjust to a
changing market and regulatory environment with a view towards profitability and long-term stability. The actions taken are intended to rightsize the organization to the revenue the Company expects to achieve in fiscal 2020. As part of the changes
to its operations, activities been suspended by the Company at the Niagara facility acquired from Newstrike and in 200,000 sq. ft. comprising the final 5th phase of B9 at the Gatineau facility.
The Company determined that this cultivation space is not required at this time given the current market conditions in Canada. HEXO continues to drive improvements in yields and processing facilities. Operations in the suspended areas can be
recommenced when required.  20

The Brantford facility is fully operational and licensed with an annual estimated production capacity of
2,000 kg of dried cannabis. It was designed and engineered to permit the application of the same pharmaceutical-quality management-standards utilized by Canadas pharmaceutical manufacturers, to the production of cannabis in all acceptable
forms. The Brantford facility has one mothering room; five grow-rooms used for propagation, vegetation and flowering; one trimming room; one drying room; one packaging room; one extraction room and two discrete shipping rooms, a level-8 vault for the storage of dried and finished product and, if required, an aggregate of approximately 1,800 sq. ft. that can be repurposed for manufacturing, packaging and/or additional production
facilities, all of which are supported and monitored by state-of-the-art automated hydroponic cultivation, climate, security and
control systems with additional layers of redundancy and back-up to mitigate the impact of systems or power failure. Each area within the Brantford facility is independently controlled and monitored, and each
strain of cannabis produced in the Brantford Facility is subjected to rigorous and ongoing analytical testing. Once retrofitting is completed and
efficiencies of scale are reached across both of the Newstrike facilities, the total boost to HEXOs production is estimated at 42,000 kg of annual dried cannabis, bringing HEXOs total anticipated annual production capacity to 150,000 kg.
Total consolidated facility space across HEXOs five campuses will amount to approximately 2.4 million sq. ft. following licensing and completion Domestic Distribution Channels Newstrike has secured
supply agreements with entities in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Ontario. Saskatchewan selected Newstrike to be a registered cannabis supplier for the province and Newstrike has received orders for products from the Nova
Scotia Liquor Corporation and the Prince Edward Island Cannabis Management Corporation. In addition, Newstrike has entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Spirit Leaf, a private cannabis retailer. These additional established distribution channels provide HEXO with domestic market penetration within nine provinces. Up Brand Within the Canadian cannabis market, Newstrike
has developed a unique platform through its Up suite of products and partnership with the iconic band The Tragically Hip. This has been instrumental to its growth to date as an independent company. The Up brand has proven its concept through its
presence across nine provincial markets in both public and private retailers. The acquisition of Newstrike provides HEXO the opportunity to implement Up brand products within its branding strategy and product offerings hierarchy as well as the
flexibility to increase the variety of products it offers to the adult-use market.  21

Other Corporate Highlights Supply Agreements of Hemp Secured for CBD Extraction During the quarter, the Company entered into several hemp supply agreements/arrangements which are expected to provide a sufficient supply of hemp to meet the
Companys needs during fiscal 2020. These arrangements were established to facilitate a consistent and reliable supply of top-quality hemp for CBD extraction purposes. We believe such a supply will become
increasingly important as the CPG industry trends towards hemp-derived CBD infused products. This positions the Company to help meet the expected demand of the edibles and concentrates market. Executive Appointments On May 22, 2019, the Company
further strengthened its leadership team by appointing Donald Courtney as its Chief Operating Officer.Mr. Courtney has over 20 years of experience in senior operations positions across several industries, including the cannabis
industry. He brings extensive experience with several global food and beverage organizations including Mars Incorporated, Pepsi Bottling Group and Vincor International and experience in the technology sector with Christie Digital and LG Electronics.
Most recently, Mr. Courtney served as the Chief Operating Officer for MedReleaf. HEXO MED Secures Medical Cannabis License in Europe On June 12, 2019, the Companys European subsidiary HEXO MED received its medical cannabis installation license. The license, issued by the Greek
government, will allow HEXO MED to establish cultivation, processing and manufacturing facilities in the region of Thessaly, Greece. The future world-class facilities will be based on a 67,000 square meter (or 721,182 sq. ft.) plot in Larissa,
Greece. On August 22, 2019, HEXOs ownership in HEXO MED was increased to 51%, through an additional investment by HEXO in HEXO MED of 500, completed on September 27, 2019. HEXO MEDs board of directors comprises 5 members,
2 of which are appointed by HEXO and the remaining 3 are appointed by QNBS. Opportunities for HEXO MED are being considered and discussions between HEXO and its Greek partner, QNBS, remain ongoing. Going forward, HEXO and QNBS have agreed to fund
its operations through third party debt or capital participation. Transfer of NYSE-A listing to NYSE Effective July 16, 2019, the Company began trading on the NYSE after receiving approval to transfer the listing of the common shares from the NYSE-A on July 10, 2019. Concurrently, the Company voluntarily delisted its shares from the NYSE-A. HEXOs common shares continue to trade under the symbol HEXO on
both the TSX and the NYSE. HEXO launches new cannabis value brand, Original Stash, with 1 oz product On October 16, 2019, the Company announced the launch of its new value brand Original Stash which became publicly available in Quebec on October 17,
2019. Original Stash is the Companys low-cost product line, aiming to attract consumers who may otherwise purchase cannabis from unlicenced dispensaries and black market participants. Original stash will
be offered in 28 gram (1 oz) quantities at black market prices. Truss announces first product offering  Flow Glow On October 17, 2019, Truss announced its first partnership with Flow Glow Beverages Inc.  the team behind Flow Alkaline Spring Water  to
manufacture and distribute a CBD-infused spring water. Flow Glow Beverages flavoured CBD-infused spring water will be one of six cannabis beverage brands within
the Truss product portfolio. Expected to be launched during the first six months of calendar 2020, Flow Glow will be available in two flavours: Goji+Grapefruit and Raspberry+Lemon. Each unit will contain 10mg of CBD. Flow Glow is sourced from
natural spring water and natural ingredients and is packaged in nearly 70% renewable-resource-based, 100% recyclable paperboard containers. Flow Glow will be manufactured and distributed at HEXOs Belleville Centre of Excellence. As of the date of this MD&A, Truss is working towards the launch of its cannabis infused beverages into the cannabis 2.0 market, focusing on the
development of its formulations and product branding initiatives, and working with the Company to put in place the infrastructure required to bring its operations online at the Belleville facility. Truss will operate out of a separate space at the
Belleville facility in which it will create infused beverages, while HEXO will run production and transformation operations for the cannabis infusion of the beverages in its separate space in the Belleville facility. Truss operations will be
conducted under HEXOs license for the facility until Truss obtains its own separate license. Truss did not have active operations during the period. $70 Million Private Placement On October 23, 2019,
the Company announced it has entered into subscription agreements with a group of investors pursuant to which the investors have agreed to purchase, on a private placement basis, $70,001 million principal amount of 8.0% unsecured debentures of
the Company (the Debentures). The Debentures will bear interest from the date of closing at 8.0% per annum payable quarterly and will mature
on the date which is three years from issuance. Following the date, which is one year from issuance, the Debentures will be convertible at the option of the holder into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price
of $3.16 per share, subject to adjustment in certain events.  23

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS




---

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the private placement for working capital and general
corporate purposes. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about November 15, 2019. The private placement is subject to certain
conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals, including the approvals of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange. Reduction of Cost Structure On October 24, 2019,
the Company announced it has taken steps to reduce its workforce. The Company is rightsizing its operations to adjust to a changing market and regulatory environment with a view towards profitability and long-term stability. The actions taken are
intended to rightsize the organization to the revenue Company expects to achieve in fiscal 2020. As part of the changes to its operations, the Company has eliminated approximately 200 positions across its departments and locations. Niagara Facility Licensing Issue On November 15,
2019, the Company announced that following its acquisition of Newstrike, it had discovered that cannabis being grown in Block B of the Niagara facility was not adequately licensed. Following this discovery, which occurred on
July 29, 2019 as a result of the Companys application to Health Canada requesting the designation of a new alternate quality assurance person at the facility6, it was promptly reported
to Health Canada, and the Company ceased cultivation and production activities in Block B and took other appropriate corrective actions, with which Health Canada was satisfied. Health Canada eventually renewed the licence for the facility in
November 2019, including Block B. While operations at the facility were suspended in October 2019 due to the Companys cost-cutting measures, it is fully licensed. The deficiencies in the licensing of Block B were not considered by the Company
to have a material impact on its operations and business. The Company did not file a material change report with respect to this matter on the basis that it did not consider this matter to be a change in its business or operations that would
reasonably be expected to have a significant effect on the market price or value of any of its securities in the particular circumstances. The Company regards the Block B licensing issue as a technical matter that is not and was not material. Block
B was only one section of the Niagara facility, representing approximately 17% of the facility (i.e., 77,000 sq. ft. of 455,000 sq. ft.), or approximately 4% of the Issuers total cultivation facilities (i.e., 77,000 sq. ft. of 1,779,000 sq.
ft.). Changes in Chief Financial Officer On
January 17, 2019, the Company announced that it was working on a transition plan with its Chief Financial Officer, Ed Chaplin, who would remain as Chief Financial Officer until April 30, 2019. The Company was in the process of undergoing a
search process for Mr. Chaplins replacement, and wished to find an individual with global CPG company experience for the position. On
May 1, 2019, the Company announced the appointment of Steve Burwash, the Companys Vice President, Strategic Finance, as interim Chief Financial Officer following Mr. Chaplins scheduled departure on April 30, 2019, and
pending the conclusion of the Companys search process for an individual with global CPG company experience for the position. On May 28, 2019,
the Company announced the appointment of Michael Monahan as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Monahan was based in the United States and had more than 20 years of finance and operations experience with both public and privately held companies,
including CPG companies, as the Company was starting to consider options for entering the United States market with the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill to allow CBD extraction from hemp. On October 4, 2019, the Company announced that Mr. Monahan had resigned as Chief Financial Officer because of family-related reasons and that it had
become apparent the position was requiring him to spend the majority of his time in Canada. Stephen Burwash, who was previously Vice-President of Strategic Finance for the Company and had also acted as interim Chief Financial Officer following
Mr. Chaplins departure until Mr. Monahans appointment, was appointed as Chief Financial Officer effective October 4, 2019. The
Company did not file material change reports with respect to these changes in the individuals serving as Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation, all of which were generally disclosed on a timely basis by the Company as noted above, on the basis
that it did not consider these changes to be changes in its business or operations that would reasonably be expected to have a significant effect on the market price or value of any of its securities in the particular circumstances.  6
During the review of this application, Health Canada noted that the rooms in the facility that were approved
under the licence for the Niagara facility, which had been issued to Up Cannabis Inc. (Up Cannabis), a subsidiary of Newstrike, were not included within the site details portion in Health Canadas Cannabis Tracking and Licensing
System (the CTLS). As this information was required, Health Canada provided the Issuer with a chart to be filled out by it identifying the rooms in the facility and the activities applicable to each of them. Upon completing the chart on
July 29, 2019, HEXO discovered that the Block B cultivation space appeared to be missing from the site details submitted to Health Canada. Having become aware of a potential licensing gap with the Block B cultivation space, the Issuer notified
Health Canada of the situation on July 30, 2019 and started an investigation into the matter. It was determined this was due to confusion about the phase in of various rooms in the Niagara facility as it was being retrofitted and how it related
to various amendments being made to its licence for the various phases. From February 5, 2019 to February 7, 2019, while it was operated by Newstrike, Health Canada inspectors inspected the Niagara facility. During this visit, the
inspectors toured Block B and no comments or concerns were brought up about cultivation in this space, which further reinforced the assumption that it was included as a cultivation space under the facilitys licence. Health Canada subsequently
inspected the facility on August 21, 2019. The inspection report noted that the Block B licensing issue had been identified by the Issuer and reported to Health Canada, the Issuer was working with Health Canada on next steps and had submitted
an amendment to include Block B in the licence, and no activities were observed in the room at the time of inspection. The facility was given a compliant compliance rating in the Inspection Report.  24

Key Operating Performance Indicators We have included certain key operating performance indicators within this MD&A, as defined in this section. We utilize these metrics internally for a range of purposes such as critical inputs in fair valuation techniques to evaluating the operating performance
results in a given period. EXPECTED PLANT YIELD The
expected plant yield is utilized in the valuation of biological assets on hand as at the period end. This represents an unobservable input to a level 3 fair value estimate and is derived from the Companys historical harvests as well as the
expertise of the appropriate personnel. A sensitivity analysis over this input was performed and included in the Biological Assets  Fair Value Measurement section below. PRODUCTION CAPACITY The production capacity disclosed
throughout this MD&A represents managements best estimate and is derived from the historical actual output of production as well as the use of cultivation expertise existing within the Company. KILOGRAMS PRODUCED The kilograms harvested during the
period representing the amount of dried gram and dried gram equivalents harvested and produced from biological assets but not necessarily sold during the period. Additional IFRS Measure We have included the below additional
IFRS measure as this represents a cannabis industry financial statement line item and is present within the Companys statement of loss and comprehensive loss for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019. GROSS MARGIN BEFORE FAIR VALUE ADJUSTMENTS we utilize
this measure to provide a representation of performance in the period by excluding non-cash fair value measurements as required by IFRS. We believe this measure provides useful information as it represents the
gross margin for management purposes based on cost to produce, package and ship inventory sold, exclusive of any fair value measurements as required by IFRS. The metric is calculated by removing all amounts related to biological asset fair value
accounting under IFRS, including gains on transformation of biological assets and the cost of finished harvest inventory sold, which represents the fair value measured portion of inventory cost (fair value cost adjustment) recognized as
cost of goods sold.  25

Total gross revenue in the quarter increased approximately 13x to $20,517 when compared to total gross revenue of
$1,410 for the same quarter of fiscal 2018.  

Adult-use grams and gram equivalents sold increased 45% to 4,009 kg from
2,759 kg in the previous quarter as the Company continues to deliver on its existing supply agreements.  

During the quarter ended July 31, 2019, the Company produced approximately 16,824 kg of dried cannabis, a
72% increase from approximately 9,804 during the previous quarter. This is attributable to higher yields in the 250,000 sq. ft. B6 facility, the additional harvests of the 1 million sq. ft. B9 greenhouse and the contribution of the acquired
Newstrike greenhouses. FINANCIAL POSITION  

As at July 31, 2019, the Company held cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $139,505 and
working capital of $259,451.  

The Company obtained a $65,000 credit facility with a syndicate of Canadian chartered banks. This consists of
$50,000 available term credit and a $15,000 revolving line of credit which will be used in part to finance the continuing expansion of the Gatineau campus as well as the leasehold improvements at the Belleville Centre of Excellence without diluting
the shareholders of HEXO.  26

Revenue outside of the primary operations of the Company. Total net revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 increased to $15,424 from $1,410 in the same period of fiscal 2018. The main contributor is the
addition of adult-use sales which the Company is realizing in its first fiscal year of legalization in Canada. Adult-use sales in the quarter accounted for 91% of total
revenue. Adult-use and wholesale revenues were reduced by sales provisions incurred in the quarter. These provisions are derived from managements estimates based upon price concessions and expected returns
(see Note 3 of the audited annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended July 31, 2019 and 2018). Non-cannabis ancillary sales which began in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 decreased to $29 from $61 in the previous
quarter. This revenue is derived from a management agreement held by the Company with arms-length partners. OUTLOOK The Company expects net revenue for the first quarter to fiscal year 2020 to be $14,000 to $18,000, subject to retroactive adjustments required on inventory
held by provinces, which is subject to price adjustments as the result of a re-evaluating of pricing strategy. Furthermore, the Company expects to be EBITDA positive in calendar 2020, subject to certain
assumptions regarding store count, operational improvements and cost saving initiatives. ADULT-USE SALES During the period, adult-use gross sales increased to $18,997 in the three months ended July 31, 2019.
Contributing to the increase is the additional sales for the stub period of May 24, 2019 to July 31, 2019 from the acquired Newstrike during the period. This contributed $2,770 in additional gross cannabis sales in the period. HEXO also
began to realize sales to the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis agency (AGLC) in the quarter which contributed $4,828. This represented an increase of $4,390 or 30% when compared to the $14,607 in sales in the prior quarter and an
increase of $17,587 relative to the same period of fiscal 2018, which included medical sales only during that period.  27

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS




---

The Companys gross adult-use sales for the year ended
July 31, 2019 totaled $53,590, an increase of $48,656 as compared to the total (medical only) sales of $4,934 in fiscal 2018. The increase is due to fiscal 2018 containing medical sales only. Sales volume in the fourth quarter of 2019 increased 45% to 4,009 kg from 2,759 kg equivalents sold in the previous quarter of fiscal 2019. New in the quarter
was the contribution of 971 kg sold to the AGLC and the 396 kg sold through Newstrike. Dried flower and milled products represented 89% of gram equivalents sold during the period, a 4% increase from the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and oil product
sales comprising the balance of the quantity sold. During the quarter, gross adult-use revenue per gram
equivalent decreased by $0.55 or 10% to $4.74 from $5.29 in the prior quarter, reflective of the price concessions and provision for sales returns recorded in the period. The provision is reflective of a general best estimate provision for returns
and price adjustments based on the Companys assessment of sell-through and slow moving inventory. This was partially countered by the addition of the premium brand Up which commands revenue of $6.80 per gram on dried flower. The adult-use net revenue per gram equivalent decreased by $0.79 or 18% to $3.51 from $4.30 in the previous quarter, reflecting the impact of the provision above as well as the 971 kg of sales in Alberta, which imposes
on average a 16% higher exercise tax rate than Ontario and Quebec. In future periods as the sales mix shifts towards oil and other value-added products from lower valued dry flower products, the impact of these excise taxes on revenue per gram is
expected to decrease. MEDICAL SALES Gross medical
revenue in the three months ended July 31, 2019 decreased 19% to $1,142 compared to $1,410 in the same period in fiscal 2018. Grams and gram equivalents sold decreased marginally to 137 kg from 152 kg in the fourth quarter of 2018. The relative
stability in gram and gram equivalents sold with a corresponding decrease in sales is due to increased sales of oil products with sales prices, as well as the decrease to medical sales prices per gram incurred after legalization occurred in Q1 of
the fiscal year. Compared to the prior quarter, the sequential revenue decreased by 14% from $1,323, reflecting lower total dried grams sales, offset by a marginal increase to oil based gram equivalents sold. The Company realized $5,288 of gross medical sales during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 which is an increase of 7% from the $4,934 of gross medical
sales during the comparative fiscal year 2018. This increase is due to 54 kg of additional gram and gram equivalents sold, offset by on average lower dried gram sales prices. Net medical revenues decreased during the quarter by 12% to $957 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019, due to the reasons described above. WHOLESALE SALES New in the fiscal year are the
introduction of wholesale revenues realized in the quarter. These sales pertain to transactions held between the Company and other licensed producers. The characteristics of such sales are generally large quantities at reduced prices per gram and
gram equivalent. These sales are also free of excise taxes as this burden belongs to the acquirer and ultimately the seller of the cannabis products. Wholesale revenues in the quarter contributed $378 to the Companys net revenues. A total of 672 kg of dried cannabis was sold through the wholesale
channel at an average net revenue per gram of $0.56. Prior to the provision for sales returns, the average contribution of wholesale revenue per gram was $4.36. Cost of Sales, Excise Taxes and Fair Value Adjustments Cost of goods sold includes the direct and indirect costs of materials and labour related to inventory sold, and includes harvesting, processing, packaging,
shipping costs, depreciation and applicable stock-based compensation and direct and indirect overhead. Fair value adjustment on sale of inventory
includes the fair value of biological assets included in the value of inventory transferred to cost of sales. Fair value of biological assets represents
the increase or decrease in fair value of plants during the growing process less expected cost to complete and selling costs and includes certain management estimates.  For the three months ended

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS




---

Cost of sales for the quarter ended July 31, 2019 were $10,291, compared to $700 for the same quarter
ended in fiscal 2018. The increase in cost of sales is the result of increased sales volumes due to the legalized adult-use market not present in the comparative period. Also impacting the cost of sales were
higher overhead allocated costs to inventory and increases to transformation costs were incurred as oil and other value-added products production mix has increased from the same quarter of fiscal 2018. For the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019, cost of sales increased to $26,197 from $2,093 from the comparable period of fiscal 2018 for the reasons as
noted above. The fair value adjustment on the sale of inventory for the fourth quarter ended July 31, 2019 was $7,285 compared to $455 for the same
quarter ended July 31, 2018. This variance is due to increased sales volume of inventory sold when compared to the same quarter in fiscal year 2018. Which was offset by the introduction of the adult-use
market which commands a lower fair value per gram when compared to the exclusively medical market-based sales in the three months ended July 31, 2018. Fair value adjustment on biological assets for the current quarter was ($5,322) compared to ($1,171) for the same quarter ended in fiscal 2018. This variance
is due to the increase in the total number of plants on hand as well as increased yields when compared to the comparative period. The increase in plants is due to the fully licensed 250,000 sq. ft. greenhouse which began harvests in Q1 of fiscal
2019 as well as the activation of the 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse during the second and third quarter of fiscal 2019. This results in significantly increased expected gram yields in the quarter and increased production costs of operating newly
in-use facilities. The increase in scale and total plants on hand is the result of meeting the demand of the adult-use market. For the year ended, the fair value adjustments on the sale of inventory and biological assets increased to $16,357 and ($38,856) respectively from $2,289 and
($7,340) respectively in the comparative period of fiscal 2018 for those reasons as noted above. The Company incurred an impairment loss on inventory of
$19,335 during the three months ended July 31, 2019, due to price compression in the market. The impairment loss was realized on cannabis trim and milled inventory in fiscal 2019 to help meet the demands of the
adult-use market in which the cost is now exceeding its net realizable value. This has resulted in part from the circumstances surrounding the ongoing development of the
adult-use cannabis industry including, on the one hand, delays in the rollout of newly legalized derivative products which require the use of distillate, delays in developing the retail environment and
resulting lower than anticipated sales levels for derivative products, and, on the other hand, the extraction and inventory of trim to produce such products in anticipation of a developing market, an oversupply of trim in the market which drove
prices downward, and an oversupply to the Companys inventory as internal demand for the consumption of trim in order to create derivative products was reduced due to these industry factors. The continuing evolution of these market conditions
represent ongoing uncertainties that may affect the Companys future financial results. New in fiscal 2019 are excise taxes associated with the new adult-use revenues and medical sales incurred after October 17, 2018. These taxes totaled $5,122 an increase of 72% from the prior quarter which in part, is consistent with the increase to underlying gross
revenues and gram and gram equivalents sold in the quarter. Further adding to the increase were the approximate $6,871 sales incurred in Alberta which drives on average 16% higher excise tax burden than Quebec and Ontario. Excise taxes are a
function of fixed provincial and territorial rates based upon the gram equivalents sold as well as a variable ad valorem component which is dependent upon the selling price of the products. Operating Expenses  For the three months ended

24,367 Operating expenses include general and administrative expenses, marketing and promotion, stock-based compensation, research
and development, and depreciation/amortization expenses. Marketing and promotion expenses include customer acquisition costs, customer experience costs, salaries for marketing and promotion staff, and general corporate communications expenses.
General and administrative expenses include salaries for administrative staff and executive salaries as well as general corporate expenditures including legal, insurance and professional fees. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE General and administrative
expenses increased to $22,950 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, compared to $4,300 for the same period in fiscal 2018. This increase reflects the significant increase to the scale of our operations, including an increase in management, general,
finance and administrative staff which lead to an increase of $3,149 to wages and payroll related expenses. Total professional and legal expenses increased by $7,557, as a result of merger and acquisition activity, additional corporate development
initiatives and the increased financial reporting and control-based regulatory requirements accompanying public company status and listing on the TSX and NYSE. Increased insurance pertaining to commercial property and directors and officers
increased in total by $3,577 due to increased property, plant and equipment balances and the listing on the NYSE, respectively.  29

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Total general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $45,947
from $9,374 in the same period of fiscal 2018 due to the general growth of the operational scale of the corporation for the same reasons as outlined above. MARKETING AND PROMOTION Marketing and promotion expenses
increased to $9,520 in the current quarter, compared to $3,807 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase reflects the expenses incurred from our adult-use marketing and promotional events undertaken in
the quarter as we build brand recognition and establish HEXO in the adult-use cannabis market. This is inclusive of higher staff and travel-related expenses, increases to printing and promotional materials,
market research efforts as well as advertisement costs. Total marketing and promotion expenses for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 significantly
increased to $31,191 from $8,335 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018. This significant increase reflects the Companys marketing and branding campaign which began in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 as we prepared for the launch of
the adult-use brand HEXO into the legalized Canadian market. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (R&D) The Company realized its first significant quarter of R&D expenses during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The increased R&D is correlated
to the cannabis 2.0 edible cannabis market preparation, including vape formulas, confectionary prototypes and sensory testing. The Company also incurred expenses of $575 in market research and product studies. Additionally, expenses related to the
establishment of the recently announced brand, Original Stash were realized. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Stock-based compensation increased to $10,197 when compared to $1,933 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase is a function of the increased number of
outstanding stock options which has a direct correlation to the increased headcount of the Company. Underlying market prices of those options granted subsequent the third quarter of fiscal 2018 were significantly higher, resulting in an increase to
the expensed value on a per stock option basis during the period. On May 24, 2019, the Company added the unvested outstanding stock options of Newstrike to its outstanding balance. This contributed $981 of additional expenses in the period. Total stock-based compensation for the year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $28,008 from $4,997 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018 for
those reasons as outlined above. DEPRECIATION OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Amortization of property, plant and equipment increased to $581 in the quarter, compared with $421 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase is due to
the additions to office furniture, vehicles and other equipment in which the associated depreciation is not capitalized to inventory. These additions represent the Companys general growth and increase to the scale of the operations. Total depreciation of property, plant and equipment for the year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $1,747 from $896 as compared to the same period of
fiscal 2018 for those reasons as outlined above. AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS Amortization of intangible assets increased significantly to $1,407 in the quarter, compared with $252 for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increase is the
result of amortization incurred on the identified $113,888 cultivation and license intangible asset acquired through the acquisition of Newstrike on May 24, 2019. Total amortization of intangible assets for the year ended July 31, 2019 increased to $1,767 from $765 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2018 for
those reasons as outlined above. Loss from Operations Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was ($63,067), compared to ($10,194) for the same period in fiscal 2018. The increased operating expenses due to
the expanding scale of operations of the Company and increased stock-based compensation expense due to higher cannabis market value. The Company also incurred increased R&D expenditures and an impairment loss on inventory. The higher expenses
were offset by higher revenues and increased biological fair value adjustments as our production capacity continues to increase. Other Income/Expenses Other income/(expense) was $125 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 compared to ($315) in the same period of fiscal 2018. Revaluation of
financial instruments of $543 in the latest quarter reflects the revaluation of an embedded derivative related to USD denominated warrants issued in the prior year. During the period we earned $1,575 of interest and other income on our various
highly liquid interest generating assets as well as the interest earning convertible debenture. Additionally, we incurred ($1,252) of unrealized of equity loss pickups on the ventures HEXO MED and Truss. The unrealized losses on the convertible
debenture revaluation and other investments were ($124) and ($315), respectively. Interest expenses amounted to ($305) in the period. Total other
income/(expense) was ($847) for the year ended July 31, 2019 compared to ($5,383) of the same period of fiscal 2018. The decrease in expenses is primarily due to the Interest income of $5,187 due to increased cash holdings, convertible note
interest and interest earned on a public security investment. The cumulative gain on convertible debenture amounted to $1,737 for the year ended. This was offset by the loss on revaluation of the USD denominated warrant liability of ($3,730) and the
cumulative equity pick up losses from ventures of ($2,964).  30

Acquired through the Newstrike acquisition on May 24, 2019 Our biological assets consist of cannabis plants, from seeds all the way through to mature plants. As at July 31, 2019, the carrying amount of biological
assets consisted of $2 in seeds and $7,369 in cannabis plants ($6 in seeds and $2,326 in cannabis plants as at July 31, 2018). The increase in the carrying amount of biological assets is attributable to an increase in production costs and
offset by the market selling price decrease as a result of the adult-use market. The significant estimates used in determining the fair value of cannabis on plants are as follows:  

yield by plant;  

stage of growth estimated as the percentage of costs incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to the
estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfillment costs) to arrive at an in-process fair value for estimated biological assets which have not yet been harvested;  

percentage of costs incurred for each stage of plant growth;  

fair value selling price per gram less cost to complete and cost to sell; and  

destruction/wastage of plants during the harvesting and processing process. We view our biological assets as Level 3 fair value estimates and estimate the probability of certain harvest rates at various stages of growth. As at
July 31, 2019, it is expected that our biological assets will yield approximately 17,571 kilograms (July 31, 2018  4,374 kilograms). Our estimates are, by their nature, subject to change. Changes in the anticipated yield will be reflected
in future changes in the fair values of biological assets. The valuation of biological assets is based on an income approach in which the fair value at
the point of harvesting is estimated based on selling prices less the costs to sell. For in-process biological assets, the fair value at point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth at period end.
Stage of growth is determined by reference to the plants life relative to the cost incurred as a percentage of total cost as applied to estimated total fair value per gram (less fulfilment costs) to arrive at an
in-process fair value for estimated biological assets, which have not yet been harvested. Managements
identified significant unobservable inputs, their range of values and sensitivity analysis for the period ended July 31, 2019 are presented in the table below:  Unobservable inputs

Input values

Sensitivity analysisAverage selling price Obtained through
actual retail prices on a per strain basis

An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average selling price would result in a change of approximately $480 to the valuation.Yield per plant Obtained through
historical harvest cycle results on a per strain basis

15  123 grams per plant

An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average yield per plant would result in a change up to approximately $344 in valuation.Stage of growth Obtained through the
estimates of stage of completion within the harvest cycle

An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the average stage of growth per plant would result in a change of approximately $1,148 in valuation.WastageObtained through the estimates of stage of
wastage within the cultivation and production cycle

0%30% dependent upon the stage within the harvest cycle

An increase or decrease of 5% applied to the wastage expectation would result in a change of approximately $302 in valuation.  31

(0.01
) The Companys net revenues have increased considerably during the current fiscal year when compared to the previous
fiscal year. This is due to the legalization of adult-use cannabis in Canada and the Companys introduction into this market. As a result, the net loss in the three months ended July 31, 2019
increased primarily due to approximately $23 million in additional operating expenses as discussed in Operating Expenses and the $19,335 impairment loss on inventory discussed in Cost of Sales, Excise Taxes and Fair
Market Value Adjustments. The third quarter of fiscal 19 saw increased general, administrative and stock based compensation expenses due to the growth of scale in the Companys operations. In the second quarter of fiscal 19 a
stabilization in marketing/branding expenses occurred from the previous quarter thus reducing the net loss, offset by increased gross margin due to the Companys first full quarter of adult-use sales. The
Company experienced a ramp up of expenses to prepare for the legalized adult-use market primarily in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and quarter four of fiscal 2018 resulting in increased net losses. The four
quarters of fiscal year 2018 ended July 31, 2018 pertain to the Companys operations within the medical market only and included in the first quarter of fiscal 18 were tremendous scaling efforts to meet the coming demand of the adult-use market which was legalized October 17, 2018.  32

(19,785
) Total Assets Total
assets increased to $878,623 as at July 31, 2019 from $334,998 as at July 31, 2018. The Company raised $53,791 in net proceeds from the January 30, 2019 marketed public offering. Property plant and equipment increased by $204,460 due
to the construction of the 1 million sq. ft B9 facility, leasehold improvements to the Belleville Centre of Excellence and the associated required additional production equipment required within those facilities. The Company also acquired
$46,003 of property, plant and equipment through the Newstrike acquisition. Also due to the aforementioned addition production facilities, there has been a significant increase in scale of operations. Inventory and biological assets increased
$73,439 and $5,039, respectively. New in the fiscal year, also contributing to the variance is the addition of the investment in associate Truss and joint venture HEXO MED which increased total assets by $52,849. Intangible assets increased by
$123,237 primarily due to the acquisition of the Newstrike Up brand and cultivation licenses. Also generated through the acquisition of Newstrike was goodwill of $111,877. Total Liabilities Total liabilities increased to $89,911
as at July 31, 2019 from $12,125 as at July 31, 2018. During the current fiscal year, the Company entered into a term loan with CIBC which contributed $33,374 in net outstanding debt as at July 31, 2019. An increase in trade accounts
payable and accruals of $36,585 due to continued growth in operations and scalability, specifically the retrofitting and leasehold improvement activity underway at the Belleville Centre of Excellence. There exists $3,494 of excise taxes payable due
to the onset of the new taxation policy instituted at the legalization date October 17, 2018. Share Capital Share capital increased to $799,706 as at July 31, 2019 from $347,233 at July 31, 2018, due to the marketed equity financing which contributed
$53,791 in net proceeds to share capital. The acquisition of Newstrike added an additional $322,439 and the remaining balance of the increase was realized from the exercising of warrants, broker warrants and stock options during the fiscal year. Share-Based Payment Reserve The share-based payment
reserve increased to $40,315 as at year end from $6,139 as at July 31, 2018. This increase is due to a full fiscal year of stock-based compensation resulting in an increase of $11,768, as a result from the 5.7 million issued employee stock
options in July 2018. A total of 12,693,118 employee stock options were granted during the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, inclusive of 3,668,785 which were granted during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The acquisition of Newstrike on
May 24, 2019 increased the share-based payment reserve by $7,134. Warrants Reserve The warrant reserve increased significantly to $60,433 as at July 31, 2019 from $12,635 as at July 31, 2018, primarily due to the $42,386 addition of
the fair valued Molson warrants reserve established for the 11,500,000 share purchase warrants issued to an affiliate of Molson Coors Canada as consideration in the Truss venture in early October 2018. The warrants possess a strike price of $6.00
and a term of 3 years. This is offset by warrant exercise activity during the three quarters to date of fiscal 2019. The acquisition of Newstrike on May 24, 2019 increased the warrants reserve by $12,229.  33

cash used in operating activities for the twelve months ended July 31, 2019 was $124,706 as a result of the total net loss for the period ended of $69,608, and a decrease in non-cash working capital of
$71,767, as well as net non-cash expenses of $16,669. In the same prior year period, cash used in operating activities was ($22,185), reflecting the net loss of ($23,350), net
non-cash expenses add back of $8,378, and a decrease in working capital of ($7,213). The change in cash flow reflects ($38,856) of an unrealized change in the fair value of biological assets. Increases to
inventory and biological assets of ($53,640) and an increase to trade receivables of ($17,845). These increases to operating cashflows were offset by the stock-based compensation add back of $28,944. Operating activities reflect the general
increased size and scale of the Companys operations when compared to the same fiscal period of the fiscal year 2018, as well as the additional operations obtained through the acquisition of Newstrike. Financing Activities Net cash received from financing
activities for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 was $146,877. On January 30, 2019, the Company closed the marketed equity financing in which a total of 8,855,000 common shares were issued for net proceeds of $53,731. The additional cash
generated from the exercised warrants in the amount of $56,075 and exercised stock options of $4,293 incurred during the period. The warrant activity was significantly higher in the fourth quarter due to all time high market prices. The
Companys term loan forming part of its syndicated credit facility contributed net $32,778. Investing Activities For the twelve months ended July 31, 2019, $7,645 was used for investing activities. The Company gained net cash of $49,366 through its business
acquisition. Contributing to the increase is cash was the transfer of short-term investments of $119,810 and its reinvestment into high interest generating vehicles. This is offset by the cash consideration and capitalized transaction costs of
($13,427) of the investment in associate and joint ventures. During the period, we continued additions of ($138,034) to our property, plant and equipment as scalability increases as the new 1 million sq. ft. greenhouse was completed and
significant leasehold improvements continue to be made at the Belleville facility. Cash in the amount of ($22,350) was restricted for the purposes of satisfying supply and debt service agreements or held in escrow. Capital Resources As at July 31, 2019, working
capital totaled $261,868. The exercise of all the issued and outstanding warrants, as at July 31, 2019, would result in an increase in cash of approximately $225,394, and the exercise of all stock options would increase cash by approximately
$142,491. During the quarter, the Company realized an increase in cash of $39,932 due to the exercise of 7,130,782 January 2018 warrants which contribute $5.60 per warrant. An additional $3,386 was generated due to the exercise of 2,122,689 options
during the quarter end. On October 23, 2019, the Company announced it had entered into subscription agreements with a group of investors pursuant to
which the investors agreed to purchase, on a private placement basis, $70 million principal amount of 8.0% unsecured debentures of the Company (the Debentures). Closing of the private placement occurred on December 5, 2019. The Debentures bear interest from the date of closing at 8.0% per annum payable quarterly and will mature on the date which is three years from issuance.
Following the date which is one year from issuance, the Debentures will be convertible at the option of the holder into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price of $3.16 per share, subject to adjustment in
certain events. Beginning on the date which is one year from issuance, the Company may force the conversion of all of the principal amount of the then
outstanding Debentures at the conversion price on not less than 30 days notice should the daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company be greater than $7.50 for any 15 consecutive trading days. The Debentures and any common shares of the Company issuable upon conversion thereof are subject to a statutory hold period lasting four months and one day
following the closing date. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the private placement for working capital and general corporate purposes.  34

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

On February 15, 2019, the Company entered into a syndicated credit facility with Canadian chartered
banks for a total of $65,000. This access to capital will provide the Company with additional capital to fund future growth and expansion as well as its strategic initiates without the dilution of current and future shareholders. On January 30, 2019, the Company closed the marketed public offering which generated gross proceeds of $57,500 for the issuance of 8,855,000 common
shares at a price of $6.50 per share. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund general corporate operations, global growth initiatives and research and development activity to further advance the Companys
innovation strategies. The following table provides a comparison of disclosure previously made by the Company about how it was going to use proceeds
(other than working capital) from any financing, an explanation of variances and the impact of variances, if any, on the Companys ability to achieve its business objectives and milestones:  Financing

Discussion of VariancesPublic offering of common shares completed on January 27, 2019 for gross proceeds of $57,500

General corporate purposes, including funding the Companys global growth initiatives and research and development to further advance the Companys innovation strategies.

The proceeds from the financing have been used for general corporate purposes and management has not undertaken new direction over the intended use of these funds. As witnessed in the Companys consolidated statement of cash
flows for the year ended July 31, 2019, a total of $124,706 of cash was utilized for operating activities, inclusive of $2,822 of R&D expenses. This usage is consistent with the original intended use of the financing and it is reasonable to
conclude the financings net proceeds were fully utilized in the fiscal year of 2019.Private placement of 8.0% unsecured convertible debentures on December 5, 2019 for gross proceeds of $70,000

Working capital and general corporate purposes.

The proceeds from the financing have been used for working capital and general corporate purposes and management has not undertaken new direction over the intended use of these funds. Ongoing operating expenses in the period
amounted to $17,280 (excluding share-based compensation, amortization and depreciation). Accounts payable as at the period end contributed to $43,927 to our working capital needs. As of the date of this MD&A, the Company sits on a consolidated cash position of approximately $64,000, exclusive of the
expected cash from the debentures of the recently announced private placement. The primary cash burn activities since the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019 relate to capital expenditures, capital contributions to our joint arrangement partners
and standard operating activities such as payroll. Management believes that current working capital along with the recently completed financings,
sufficiently provides the level of funding required for current expansion projects and meet contractual obligations for the next 12 months. We periodically evaluate the opportunity to raise additional funds through the public or private placement of
equity capital to strengthen our financial position and to provide sufficient cash reserves for growth and development of the business. Our authorized
share capital is comprised of an unlimited number of common shares. The table below outlines the number of issued and outstanding common shares, warrants and options as at July 31, 2018, July 31, 2019 and December 31, 2019.  December 31, 2019

of up to$50,000 and a revolver of up to$15,000. The amount of the revolver is based on a formula that considers a percentage of accounts receivable reduced by priority payables. Currently, the company has drawn $35,000 of its term loan, leaving another $15,000 available to draw on. The additional capacity available on the term loan of
$15,000 expires on December 31, 2019, if not drawn on or before that date. The companys revolver capacity is currently at $14,900 and is being used exclusively as security for letters of credit issued to certain vendors. We have certain contractual financial obligations related to service agreements and construction contracts for the construction in progress shown in Note 9 of
the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019. Commitments are inclusive of $99,652 related to the 20-year anchor rental commitment regarding the
Belleville facility. These contracts have optional renewal terms that we may exercise at our option. The annual minimum payments payable under these
contracts over the next five years are as follows:  Capital Projects1

Inclusive of contractually and non-contractually committed capital
expenditures which contribute to the estimated remaining budget of a capital project. Of the $176,448 in commitments due in 2020,
$116,256 relates to capital projects in progress. Approximately $40,060 relates to the Gatineau, Quebec facility, $74,396 relates to the Belleville, Ontario facility, $1,100 relates to the Vaughan, Ontario facility, and $700 relates to the Montreal
facility. Note, the total commitments listed for 2020 are $176,448, whereas, the amount included in the MD&A dated December 31, 2019 was
$93,647. The reason for the difference is that the December 31, 2019 MD&A did not include certain amounts relating to capital projects. The Company did not include capital projects at the time because its strategy was being reassessed in
response to slower than expected market growth. In hindsight, the Company has been better able to estimate costs to complete these projects and as result is disclosing the amounts in this updated release. Litigation As of the date of this MD&A, the Company
is named as a defendant in a securities class action that was filed in the Superior Court in the Province of Quebec and in two securities class actions that were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. One or more of
the Companys current and/or former officers are also named as defendants in these actions. The lawsuits assert causes of action under Canadian and U.S. securities legislation, in connection with statements made by the defendants that are
alleged to have been materially false and/or misleading statements and their alleged failure to disclose material adverse facts. The alleged misrepresentations relate to, among other things, the Companys forward-looking information, including
but not limited to the Companys forecast revenues for Q4 2019 and fiscal 2020, its inventory, channel stuffing, the Companys supply agreement with the SQDC, and issues relating to the Companys acquisition of Newstrike.
As at the date of this MD&A, the amounts claimed for damages in each of these actions have not been quantified. These actions are in a preliminary stage and have not yet been certified as class actions.  36

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

While the Company cannot predict the outcome of the actions discussed above, it intends to assert all
available defences and vigorously defend these proceedings. Defending litigation, whether or not meritorious, is time-consuming for our management and detracts from our ability to fully focus our internal resources on our business activities. In
addition, legal fees and costs incurred in connection with such activities may be significant and we could, in the future, be subject to judgments or enter into settlements of claims for significant monetary damages. A decision adverse to our
interests could result in the payment of substantial damages and could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow, results of operations and financial position, and the limits of available insurance may be insufficient to cover our eventual
liability. Financial Risk Management We are exposed
to risks of varying degrees of significance which could affect our ability to achieve our strategic objectives for growth. The main objectives of our risk management process are to ensure that risks are properly identified and that the capital base
is adequate in relation to these risks. The principal financial risks to which we are exposed are described below. Interest Risk The Company has exposure to interest rate risk related to any investments of surplus cash. The Company may invest surplus cash in highly liquid investments
with short terms to maturity that would accumulate interest at prevailing rates for such investments. The Company also has exposure to interest rate risk related to the outstanding balance of the term loan. The fluctuation of the interest rate may
result in a material increase to the associated interest. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had short term investments and a convertible debenture of $517 and a long term loan of $33,374. All interest rates are fixed. An increase or decrease of
5% to the applicable interest rates would not result in a material variance. Price Risk Price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity or market prices. The Companys investments are susceptible to price risk
arising from uncertainties about their future outlook, future values and the impact of market conditions. The fair value of marketable securities and derivatives held in publicly traded entities are based on quoted market prices which the shares of
the investments can be exchanged for. If the fair value of these financial assets were to increase or decrease by 10% as of July 31, 2019, the
Company would incur an associated increase or decrease in comprehensive loss of approximately $188 (2018$Nil). The price risk exposure as at July 31, 2019 is presented in the table below.  $Financial assets

Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and
arises principally from the Companys trade receivables, promissory note receivable and convertible debenture receivable. As at July 31, 2019, the Company was exposed to credit related losses in the event of
non-performance by the counterparties. The Company provides credit to its customers in the normal course of
business and has established credit evaluation and monitoring processes to mitigate credit risk. Since the majority of the medical sales are transacted with clients that are covered under various insurance programs, the Company has limited credit
risk. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are held by some of the largest cooperative financial groups in Canada. Since the inception of
the Company, no losses have been incurred in relation to cash held by the financial institution. The majority of the trade receivables balance are held with crown corporations of Quebec, Ontario and Alberta as well as one of the largest medical
insurance companies in Canada. Credit worthiness of a counterparty is evaluated prior to the granting of credit. The Company has estimated the expected credit loss using a lifetime credit loss approach. The current expected credit loss for the year
ended July 31, 2019 is $37 (July 31, 2018 - $94). In measuring the expected credit losses, the adult-use
cannabis trade receivables have been assessed on a per customer basis as they consist of a low number of material contracts. Medical trade receivables have been assessed collectively as they possess share credit risk characteristics. They have been
grouped based on the days past due. Credit risk from the convertible debenture receivable arises from the possibility that principal and/or interest due
may become uncollectible. The Company mitigates this risk by managing and monitoring the underlying business relationship. The carrying amount of cash
and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, trade receivables and convertible debentures receivable represents the maximum exposure to credit risk and as at July 31, 2019; this amounted to $194,902. The following table summarizes the Companys aging of receivables as at July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018:  July 31, 2019

644 Economic Dependence Risk Economic dependence risk is the risk of reliance upon a select number of customers which significantly impact the financial performance of the Company. The
Company recorded sales from three crown corporations representing 81% (July 31, 2018  Nil%) of total sales in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019. The Company holds trade receivables from three crown corporations representing 79% of total trade receivables as of July 31, 2019 (July 31, 2018 
Nil%). Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk
that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by reviewing on an ongoing basis its capital requirements. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had $139,505 of cash and
cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company is obligated to pay accounts payable and accrued liabilities, excise taxes payable and current
portions of the term loan and other liabilities with total carrying amounts and contractual cash flows amounting to $52,685 due in the next 12 months. The carrying values of cash, trade receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short term to maturity. Critical Accounting Assumptions Our financial
statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management makes estimates and assumptions and uses judgment in applying these accounting policies and reporting the amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements relate to the valuation of biological assets and inventory, stock-based compensation, warrants, the estimated useful lives of property, plant and
equipment, and intangible assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting assumptions are presented in Note 3 of the Companys annual audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended
July 31, 2019, which is available under HEXOs profile on SEDAR and EDGAR.  38

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

Adopted and Upcoming Changes in Accounting Standards IFRS 15,Revenues from Contracts with Customers IFRS 15 was issued by the IASB in May 2014 and specifies how and when revenue should be recognized based on a five-step model, which is applied to all
contracts with customers. On April 12, 2016, the IASB published final clarifications to IFRS 15 with respect to identifying performance obligations, principal versus agent considerations, and licensing. The Company has applied IFRS 15 retrospectively and determined that there is no change to the comparative period or transitional adjustments required as a
result of the adoption. The Companys accounting policy for revenue recognition under IFRS 15 is as follows:  1.
Identifying the contract with a customer;  2.
Identifying the performance obligation(s) in the contract;  3.
Determining the transaction price;  4.
Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and  5.
Recognizing revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s). Revenue from the direct sale of cannabis to customers for a fixed price is recognized when the Company transfers the control of the good(s) to the customer
upon delivery and acceptance by the customer, the timing of which is consistent with the Companys previous revenue recognition policy under IAS 18. IFRS 9,Financial Instruments The
Company adopted IFRS 9 retroactively and determined that there is no change to the comparative period or transitional adjustments required as a result of the adoption. IFRS 9 was issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) in November 2009 and October 2010 and will replace IAS 39. IFRS 9 uses a
single approach to determine whether a financial asset is classified and measured at amortized cost or at fair value. The classification and measurement of financial assets is based on the Companys business models for managing its financial
assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI). Financial assets under IFRS 9 are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at either amortized cost; fair
value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) or; fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). AMORTIZED COST Financial assets classified and measured at amortized cost are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets
in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI. Financial assets classified at amortized cost are measured using the effective interest method. FVTOCI Financial assets classified and measured at
FVTOCI are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI. This classification includes certain equity instruments where IFRS 9 allows an entity to make an irrevocable election to classify the equity instruments,
on an instrument-by-instrument basis, that would otherwise be measured at FVTPL to present subsequent changes in FVTOCI. FVTPL Financial assets classified and measured at FVTPL
are those assets that do not meet the criteria to be classified at amortized cost or at Fair Value through Other Comprehensive Income (FVTOCI). This category includes debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics are not SPPI or are
not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell the financial asset.  39

Amortized cost The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have a material impact to the Companys classification and measurement of financial assets
and liabilities. IFRS 9 uses an expected credit loss impairment model as opposed to an incurred credit loss model under IAS 39. The impairment model is
applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost where any expected future credit losses are provided for, irrespective of whether a loss event has occurred as at the reporting date. For trade receivables, the Company has measured the
expected credit losses based on lifetime expected credit losses taking into consideration historical credit loss experience and financial factors specific to the debtors and other factors. The carrying amount of trade receivables is reduced for any
expected credit losses through the use of an allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income. At the point when the Company is satisfied that no recovery of the
amount owing is possible, the amount is considered not recoverable and the financial asset is written off. The adoption of the new expected credit loss impairment model had a negligible impact on the carrying amounts of financial assets at amortized
cost. CLASSIFICATION AND MEASUREMENT OF FINANCIAL LIABILITIES Accounting for financial liabilities remains largely the same under IFRS 9 and subsequently the Companys liabilities were not significantly impacted by
the adoption. Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Company
designates a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which
are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments). IFRS 16,Leases In January 2016,
the IASB issued IFRS 16 Leases, which will replace IAS 17 Leases. This standard introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases with a term greater than twelve months, unless the
underlying assets value is insignificant. A lessee is required to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset and a lease
liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. Lessors will continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with lessor accounting remaining substantially unchanged from the preceding guidance under IAS 17, Leases. The Company is currently executing its implementation plan and has completed the initial scoping phase to identify material lease contracts. The analysis of
such contracts to quantify the transitional impact is ongoing. The most significant impact of IFRS 16 will be our initial recognition of the present value of future lease payments as
right-of-use assets under property, plant and equipment and the corresponding recognition of a lease liability on the consolidated statement of financial position. All
material, long-term property leases, which are currently treated as operating leases, are expected to be impacted by the new standard which will result in lower rent expense, higher depreciation expense and higher finance costs related to accretion
and interest expense of the lease liability. IFRS 16 will also impact the presentation of the consolidated statement of cash flows by decreasing
operating cash flows and increasing financing cash flows. The standard will be effective for the Company for the fiscal year commencing August 1, 2019. The Company will be adopting the standard using the modified approach by recognizing the
cumulative impact of initial adoption in opening retained earnings (i.e. the difference between the right-of-use asset and the lease liability). The Company will measure
the right-of-use asset at an amount equal to the lease liability on the commencement date, apply a single discount rate to leases with similar remaining lease terms for
similar classes of underlying assets and will not separate non-lease components from lease components for certain classes of underlying assets. Consistent with the guidance, the Company will not apply this
standard to short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value.  40

in full during the third quarter of fiscal 2019. These transactions are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount, which
is the amount of consideration established and agreed by the related parties. Internal Controls over Financial Reporting In accordance with National Instrument 52-109 Certification of Disclosure in Issuers Annual and Interim
Filings(NI 52-109),the establishment and maintenance of Disclosure Controls and Procedures (DCP) and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (ICFR) is the
responsibility of management. The DCP and ICFR have been designed by management based on the 2013 Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) to provide
reasonable assurance that the Companys financial reporting is reliable and that its financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.  41

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS




---

Regardless of how well the DCP and ICFR are designed, internal controls have inherent limitations and can
only provide reasonable assurance that the controls are meeting the Companys objectives in providing reliable financial reporting information in accordance with IFRS. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, human error and
circumvention of controls and as such, there can be no assurance that the controls will prevent or detect all misstatements due to errors or fraud, if any. The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be publicly disclosed
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. An evaluation of the design of Disclosure Controls was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer. Based upon this evaluation, the material changes to the control environment and the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as at July 31, 2019, are set forth below. Business Acquisition On May 24, 2019, the Company
finalized the acquisition of Newstrike. Under NI 52-109, the Company is permitted to limit the scope of its design of DCP and ICFR for a business that was acquired not more than 365 days before the end of the
financial period to which the certificate relates. Therefore, the Company will continue to assess the design of controls, evaluate the controls and work to implement the established control structure within the operations of Newstrike and certify
such once in a position to do so. The above acquisition contributed net revenue of $2,770 and a net loss of ($13,699) to the Companys consolidated
results for the fiscal year ended since the date of acquisition. Material Changes to the Control Environment During the period the Company continued to embark on a transformation project, enabled by a new end to end Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
system. When completed, the project will provide an integrated system for inventory tracking and valuation from seed to sale. The project was launched in November 2017 to standardize and automate business processes and controls across the
organization. As at July 31, 2019, the systems Finance, Sales and Procurement processes were functional. It will continue to be rolled out for inventory tracking and processing throughout the fiscal year. The project is a major
initiative that is utilizing third party consultants, and a solution designed specifically for the cannabis industry. The new ERP is intended to facilitate improved reporting and oversight and enhance internal controls over financial reporting. Also, during the period were changes made to the Companys inventory count process, procedures and estimate approach. Due to the significant
increase in volume as the Companys production levels rise, there were additional complexities added to this process. Additional resources were required to complete the inventory count including the reallocation of personnel from other
departments and the use of third-party services. This inherently creates an increased risk environment in that less experienced personnel were involved in the process. Identified Material Weaknesses and Remediation Plan A
material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a
companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the companys internal controls. Management has performed a detailed risk assessment to identify key account and business processes and related controls, which was informed by process flow
mapping with key control owners. As of the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019, management has identified the following material weaknesses in the
Companys internal control over financial reporting and implemented the associated remediation activity as outlined below. COMPLEX SPREADSHEET
CONTROLS Management concluded that the Company did not implement and maintain effective controls surrounding complex spreadsheets. Spreadsheets are
inherently prone to error due to the manual nature and increased risk of human error. The Companys controls related to complex spreadsheets did not address all identified material risks associated with manual data entry, documentation and
review of assumptions, processes and estimate methodology, completeness of data entry, and the accuracy of formulas. The Company has engaged a third
party to aid in the identification, assessment and remediation over the design and implementation effectiveness of complex spreadsheet internal controls over financial reporting. The Company intends to move towards an ERP which possesses specific
functionality to remove the manual nature and usage of complex spreadsheets in future periods. IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ERP The Company did not have effective information technology (IT) general controls over all operating systems, databases, and IT applications supporting financial
reports. Accordingly, process-level automated controls and manual controls that were dependent upon the information derived from IT systems were also determined to be ineffective. The Company has engaged a third party to aid in the identification, assessment and remediation over the design and implementation effectiveness of IT related
internal controls over financial reporting. The Company intends to fully implement the ERP during fiscal 2020 and will only take reliance upon such controls once the appropriate level of testing is reached.  42

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

INVENTORY COUNT The Company did not have effective controls around its year-end inventory count procedures, specifically with respect
to its reconciliation of the ERP system, due to the details outlined in the previous change to control environment section. To further strengthen
controls surrounding inventory, management has initiated or enhanced the following procedures;  

Segregation of duties to initiate work, production orders and inventory adjustments will be strengthened;  

Work, production orders and inventory adjustments will be reviewed and approved by the relevant supervisor;  

Further enhancements to the ERP inventory processing, tracking and reporting functionality and supporting work
procedures in order to ensure their sustainability;  

Additional training, guidance and communications to internal teams and third-party inventory count providers
regarding inventory management, count and reconciliation procedures. PROCUREMENT The Company did not maintain effective controls over the purchasing of capital goods and services, including the authorization of purchases, processing and
payment of vendor invoices, the classification of various expenses and capitalization of assets. To strengthen the controls surrounding the procurement
process, management has initiated or enhanced the following procedures;  

Enhancements to the ERPs purchasing functionality; including segregation of duties to initiate and release
purchase orders;  

Additional training, guidance and communications to internal teams regarding the Companys procurement
policies and required adherence to the Governance Authority Matrix. FINANCIAL REPORTING The Company did not maintain effective process level and management review controls over manual financial reporting processes and the application of IFRS and
accounting measurements related to certain significant accounts and non-routine transactions. To strengthen the
controls surrounding the financial reporting process, management has initiated the following;  

Assessing the financial and accounting resources in order to identify the areas and functions that lack
sufficient personnel and other resources.  

Hiring additional personnel, to be dedicated to the implementation, maintenance and monitoring of disclosure and
financial controls, including our current efforts to recruit a Director of Finance; and,  

Engaging third-party advisors with appropriate expertise to assist in the application of complex accounting
measurements and non-routine transactions. Risk Factors Our overall performance and results of operations are subject to various risks and uncertainties which could cause actual performance, results and achievements
to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements and forward-looking information, including, without limitation, the following factors, some of which, as well as other factors, are discussed in our Annual
Information Form dated October 28, 2019 available under our profile on www.sedar.com, which risk factors should be reviewed in detail by all readers:  

Our business operations are dependent on our licence under the Cannabis Regulations. The license must be renewed
by Health Canada. Our current license expires on April 15, 2021. Failure to comply with the requirements of the license or any failure to renew the license would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating
results.  

Achievement of our business objectives is contingent, in part, upon compliance with regulatory requirements
enacted by these governmental authorities and obtaining all regulatory approvals, where necessary, for the production and sale of our products. We cannot predict the time required to secure all appropriate regulatory approvals for our products, or
the extent of testing and documentation that may be required by governmental authorities.  

While to the knowledge of our management, the Company is currently in compliance with all laws, regulations and
guidelines relating to the marketing, acquisition, manufacture, management, transportation, storage, sale and disposal of cannabis as well as including laws and regulations relating to health and safety, the conduct of operations and the protection
of the environment, changes to such laws, regulations and guidelines due to matters beyond our control may cause adverse effects to our operations.  

We operate in a dynamic, rapidly changing environment that involves risks and uncertainties, and as a result,
management expectations may not be realized for a number of reasons.  

Reliance on managements and key persons ability to execute on strategy. This exposes us to
managements ability to perform, as well as the risk of management leaving the Company.  43

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS




---



We face intense competition from licensed producers and other companies, some of which may have greater financial
resources and more industry, manufacturing and marketing experience than we do.  

The number of licenses granted, and the number of licensed producers ultimately authorized by Health Canada could
have an impact on our operations. We expect to face additional competition from new market entrants that are granted licences under the Cannabis Regulations or existing license holders which are not yet active in the industry.  

We may be subject to growth-related risks including capacity constraints and pressure on our internal systems and
controls. Our ability to manage growth effectively will require it to continue to implement and improve our operational and financial systems and to expand, train and manage our employee base.  

Given the nature of our business, we may from time to time be subject to claims or complaints from investors or
others in the normal course of business which could adversely affect the publics perception of the Company.  

We are currently a party to certain class action lawsuits as discussed elsewhere in this MD&A and we may
become party to additional litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business which could adversely affect our business.  

Failure to adhere to laws and regulations may result in possible sanctions including the revocation or imposition
of conditions on licenses to operate our business; the suspension or expulsion from a particular market or jurisdiction or of our key personnel; and the imposition of fines and censures.  

International operations will result in increased operational, regulatory and other risks.  

There may be a risk of corruption and fraud in the emerging markets in which the Company operates.  

The Companys operations in emerging markets international markets may pose an increased inflation risk on
the business.  

The development of our business and operating results may be hindered by applicable restrictions on sales and
marketing activities imposed by Health Canada.  

Our activities and resources are currently primarily focused on our facilities on the Gatineau, Belleville and
Newstrike campuses, and we will continue to be focused on this facility for the foreseeable future. Adverse changes or developments affecting the Gatineau campus would have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
prospects.  

We expect to derive a significant portion of our future revenues from the legalized adult-use cannabis industry and recently legalized edible cannabis 2.0 market in Canada, including through our agreements various provincial governing bodies do not contain purchase commitments or otherwise obligate
the purchaser to buy a minimum or fixed volume of products from HEXO.  

We expect to derive a significant portion of our future revenues from the sale of future products of which are
still being actively developed and put into production. Failure to adequately meet market demand for edible product in a timely fashion may adversely impact the Companys profitability.  

The adult-use cannabis industry is encountering price compression, which
may adversely impact the Companys profitability. In addition, such price compression, as well as, or together with, oversupply of certain types of inventory in the industry, may result in the Company incurring additional impairment losses on
inventory in the event the cost of our inventory exceeds its net realizable value. The continuing evolution of these market conditions represent ongoing uncertainties that may affect the Companys future financial results.  

We have incurred operating losses since commencing operations and may incur losses in the future and may not
achieve profitability.  

Our growth strategy contemplates outfitting the Companys multiple facilities with additional production
resources. There is a risk that these additional resources will not be completed on time, on budget, or at all.  

A key aspect of our business is growing cannabis, and as such we are exposed to the risks inherent in any
agriculture business, such as disease spread, hazards, pests and similar agricultural risks that may create crop failures and supply interruptions for our customers.  

Our cannabis growing operations consume considerable energy, making us vulnerable to rising energy costs.
Volatility of energy costs and the loss of preferred rate status may adversely impact our business and our ability to operate profitably.  

We believe the cannabis industry is highly dependent upon consumer perception regarding the safety, efficacy and
quality of the cannabis produced. Consumer perception of our products can be significantly influenced by scientific research or findings, regulatory investigations, litigation, media attention and other publicity regarding the consumption of
cannabis products. There can be no assurance that future scientific research, findings, regulatory proceedings, litigation, media attention or other research findings or publicity will be favourable to the cannabis market or any particular product,
or consistent with earlier publicity.  

As a manufacturer and distributor of products designed to be ingested or inhaled by humans, we face an inherent
risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action and litigation if our products are alleged to have caused significant loss or injury. In addition, the manufacture and sale of our products involve the risk of injury or loss to
consumers due to tampering by unauthorized third parties, product contamination, unauthorized use by consumers or other third parties.  44



Manufacturers and distributors of products are sometimes subject to the recall or return of their products for a
variety of reasons, including product defects, such as contamination, unintended harmful side effects or interactions with other substances, packaging safety and inadequate or inaccurate labelling disclosure.  

Our business is dependent on a number of key inputs and their related costs including raw materials and supplies
related to our growing operations, as well as electricity, water and other local utilities. Any significant interruption or negative change in the availability or economics of the supply chain for key inputs could materially impact our business,
financial condition and operating results.  

We must rely largely on our own market research to forecast sales as detailed forecasts are not generally
obtainable from other sources at this early stage of the medical marijuana industry in Canada.  

Conflicts of interest may arise between the Company and its directors.  

We may not pay any dividends on our common shares in the foreseeable future.  

Our common shares are listed on the TSX and NYSE; however, there can be no assurance that an active and liquid
market for the common shares will be maintained, and an investor may find it difficult to resell such shares.  

There is no assurance the Company will continue to meet the listing requirements of the TSX and the NYSE.  

The Company is subject to restrictions from the TSX and NYSE which may constrain the Companys ability to
expand its business internationally.  

The market price for our common shares may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous
factors, including governmental and regulatory regimes, community support for the cannabis industry, variations in our operating results, changes in our business prospects, as well as many other factors that are beyond our control.  

An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk and uncertainty.  

We may issue additional common shares in the future, which may dilute a shareholders holdings in the
Company.  

The Company may not be successful in the integration of the acquired Company into our business.  

The Company may be unable to successfully achieve the objectives of our strategic alliances.  

The Companys operations are subject to increased risk as a result of international expansion.  

We maintain various types of insurance such as, but not limited to, errors and omissions insurance;
directors and officers insurance; property coverage; and general commercial insurance, recall insurance, cyber security insurance, warehouseman insurance and cargo insurance. A judgment against any member of the Company in excess of
available coverage could have a material adverse effect on us in terms of damages awarded and the impact on our reputation.  

Based upon the nature of the Companys current business activities, the Company does not believe it is
currently an investment company (IC) under the United States (U.S.) Investment Company Act of 1940. However, the tests for determining IC status are based upon the composition of the assets of the Company and its
subsidiaries and affiliates from time to time, and it is difficult to make accurate predictions of future assets. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will not become an IC in the future. A corporation generally will be considered
an IC if; more than 40% of the value of its total assets excluding cash and U.S. government securities are comprised of investment securities, which generally include any securities of an entity the corporation does not control. If the Company were
to become an IC, it would not be able to conduct public offerings of securities in the U.S.  

Our operations are subject to environmental and safety laws and regulations concerning, among other things,
emissions and discharges to water, air and land, the handling and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous materials and wastes, and employee health and safety. We will incur ongoing costs and obligations
related to compliance with environmental and employee health and safety matters. Failure to comply with environmental and safety laws and regulations may result in additional costs for corrective measures, in penalties or in restrictions on our
manufacturing operations.  

In the fiscal year 2018, the Company initiated the implementation of new ERP systems. The implementation is
expected to be completed in the fiscal year ended July 31, 2020. Upon full commencement of the implementation, the scoping, requirements definition, business process definition, design and testing of the integrated ERP system could result in
problems which could, in turn, result in disruption, delays and errors to the operations and processes within the business and/or inaccurate information for management and financial reporting.  

We are exposed to the risk that our employees, independent contractors and consultants may engage in fraudulent
or other illegal activity. Misconduct by these parties could include intentional, reckless and/or negligent conduct or disclosure of unauthorized activities to the Company that violates: (i) government regulations; (ii) manufacturing
standards; (iii) federal and provincial healthcare fraud and abuse laws and regulations; or (iv) laws that require the true, complete and accurate reporting of financial information or data.  

The Company is subject to continuous evolving corporate governance, internal controls and disclosure regulations
that may increase the risk of non-compliance, which could adversely impact the Company, its market perception and valuation.  45



With the recently acquired credit facility, which could include risks that the Companys cash flows could be
insufficient to satisfy required payments of principal and interest, exposure of the Company to the risk of increased interest rates as certain of the Companys borrowings would likely be at variable rates of interest, and enforcement risk in
the event of default.  

The credit facility contains covenants that will require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. If the
Company does not maintain such ratios, it could have consequences for the availability of credit under the credit facility or result in repayment requirements that the Company may not be able to satisfy.  46
