Village Farms International (NASDAQ: VFF) has successfully refinanced its Canadian Cannabis Term Loans, consolidating three previous loans into a single credit facility with two existing lenders. The new facility features a variable interest rate below 8.0%, representing a 50 basis point improvement over the previous rate.
The refinancing includes enhanced financial covenants and extends the maturity date to February 7, 2028, from the previous February 7, 2026 deadline. CEO Michael DeGiglio highlighted that this refinancing, combined with their recently amended FCC produce loan, has significantly improved the company's financial flexibility across all business segments.
Village Farms International (VFF) has received a 180-day extension from Nasdaq to meet the minimum bid price requirement of US$1.00 per share. The extension was granted on April 21, 2025, following the expiration of the initial 180-day compliance period on April 16, 2025.
The company now has until October 13, 2025 to regain compliance. During this period, VFF shares will continue trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Compliance can be achieved if the stock price closes at or above US$1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days before the deadline.
If Village Farms fails to meet these requirements by October 13, 2025, it may face delisting from Nasdaq Capital Market, though the company would have the option to request a review of the delisting determination by a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

The FCC Loan, which matures on May 3, 2027, features a variable interest rate below 8.0%. This modification reflects Village Farms' significant business expansion since the original 2013 credit agreement and acknowledges the company's growing emphasis on its cannabis business. Other material terms of the loan remain unchanged.

The Drachten facility, completed in October 2024, is expected to be fully operational by Q2 2025.

Village Farms International (NASDAQ: VFF) has issued statements regarding delays in the marijuana rescheduling process due to ongoing litigation against the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). This follows a January 13, 2025 Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) order granting an interlocutory appeal request. The ALJ heavily criticized the DEA's conduct, describing it as 'unprecedented,' 'astonishing,' and 'embarrassing.'
CEO Michael DeGiglio characterized the proceedings as an imperative administrative step and a symbolic victory against what the company views as a conflicted government agency. As the only cannabis operator participant in these proceedings, Village Farms expressed commitment to advocate for a fair process and cannabis reform. DeGiglio highlighted that despite majority public support for legalization and positive scientific research, prohibitionist efforts continue to impede progress in cannabis reform.
