Direct exposure to the growing global canola market

  • CTTPP trade agreement set to open new markets to Canadian canola – see https://www.canolacouncil.org/cptpp/
  • Global population expected to rise 30% by 2050 primarily in developing nations
  • Global food output, including consistent growing demand for canola, will need to outpace population growth due to

emerging middle classes in countries such as China, India and Brazil

  • 90% of Canadian canola production is destined for export markets accounting for 70% of global exports + agronomic limits

to greater Canadian production = strong canola price dynamics

  • Current market share of ~85,000 MT1 in 20 million MT market (388 farmers in 50,000 farmer market)

Summary

Investments into streaming contracts provide attractive returns

  • Capital Stream product solves working capital issues; generates gross IRRs in the mid-teens; capital is fully secured

against farm assets (land, equipment, buildings)

  • Marketing Streams added in January 2017; higher cash returns at lower risk, and significantly larger addressable market;

signed up over 270 farmers in first nine months

  • Mortgage Streams added in January 2018; highly suitable for land financing; lends itself to third party funding to

significantly increase ROE; rock solid security; already accounts for >50% of invested assets.

A dividend-paying growth story led by experienced owner-management team

  • Management estimates it could grow a very significant mortgage book within 5 years, generating significant growth in

earnings per share and distributable cash; any debt to be secured against mortgages – no operating debt

  • Currently paying quarterly dividend yielding ~5.0% annually
  • Over the last 20 months, insiders have increased share ownership by 6.85 million shares (from 14.9% to 22.3% basic and

from 22.3% to 26.7% FD)

  • Renewed share buyback launched in December 2018 to buy back up to ~10% of the public float

Historical Multi-Year Results

Previous periods restated for the twelve month periods ended September 30 to reflect trailing twelve month comparisons.

A significant volume of deliveries expected in September 2018 were delayed into Q1 of FY2019 due to heavy unseasonal snow across Alberta and Saskatchewan. As a result, adj. crop revenue, volume, EBITDA and net income were reduced for FY2018. This revenue, cash flow & earnings will be recorded in Q1 of FY2019.

  • Western Canadian grain elevators and crush plants have capacity for

millions of metric tonnes. Input Capital currently moves volume equating to just over 1% of the total capacity of all the delivery locations available across the Western Canadian provinces.

  • Canadian farm real estate makes up over 75% of total farm assets.

Consistent growth in land values has increased the proportion of farm land values on Canadian farmers’ balance sheets while long-term debt levels grow at a similar rate, but remaining under 17% of the value of farm real estate.

Farmland Mortgage Risk Profile

Commercial and residential real estate

  • Almost always involve a depreciable asset
  • Principal repayment on a mortgage helps improve LTV levels over time

Western Canadian agricultural real estate

  • Typically valued based on a bare land valuation, or cultivated acres, meaning no depreciable assets
  • Farmland has a very long track record of capital appreciation offering strong inflation protection
  • Very low default and foreclosure rates
  • The LTV and overall risk profile improves with capital appreciation regardless of principal repayment, gets even better with

principal payments

Steady long-term capital appreciation combined with principal repayments rapidly decreases LTV ratios.

Since 2010, insolvency rates have been less than 1 per every 1,000 businesses in the agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting sector.1

  • There are approximately 400 applications to the Farm Debt Mediation Service annually out of 193,000 farms across

Canada (rate of 0.21%). Of those applications over 60% develop an arrangement to resolve any unpaid debts without the necessity of proceeding to collection, reducing collection action rates to 0.08%.(1)

Capital Stream

  • Multi-year canola marketing

arrangement.

  • Access to better canola pricing
  • pportunities by joining Input

Capital’s canola marketing program.

  • “We are the only grain company

that will write you a cheque today for the right to market your canola tomorrow.”

  • Input Capital buys and sells canola via streaming contracts with

producers across western Canada.

  • Streaming contracts are a new way for producers to market canola

production and access financial solutions that meet their needs. Input Capital offers three types of streams to meet different needs among western Canadian canola farmers.

Marketing Stream

  • Multi-year canola purchase

contract – upfront payment/deposit paid to producers secures future production.

  • Upfront payment/deposit used by

producer as working capital.

  • Geared towards farmers looking

for a cash injection for expansion, succession planning, on-farm projects or as an alternative to expensive trade credit.

Expanded Product Line

  • Multi-year canola purchase

contract combined with first lien conventional mortgage. Unique features:

  • Single annual payment
  • Payable in canola instead of

cash – cash-flow friendly

  • 5 year guaranteed canola

price

  • Input picks up the canola
  • n-farm and manages all

logistics & marketing

Mortgage Stream

Capital Stream

Capital Streams generate highly seasonal results:

  • Revenue is almost entirely recorded during the September to December period;
  • Virtually no revenue recognized during the rest of the year;
  • Contract is subject to IFRS derivative accounting – high MTM volatility;
  • After 5 years, the contract ends with no further obligation by either party.

Example Features:

  • An interest-free form of working capital financing.
  • Input takes all commodity price risk and manages trucking, logistics & grain marketing.
  • The price per metric tonne a farmer receives is broken down into:
  • Significant fixed upfront deposit per metric tonne, paid to the farmer at contract initiation for all metric tonnes in the contract; and
  • Fixed crop payments per metric tonne, paid upon the delivery of annually contracted tonnes of canola.

Features:

  • Farmers gain access to Input Capital’s canola marketing expertise.
  • Input and farmer share commodity price risk pro-rata.
  • The price per metric tonne a farmer receives is broken down into:
  • Small fixed upfront deposit per metric tonne, paid to the farmer at contract initiation for all metric tonnes in the contract; and
  • Variable crop payments per metric tonne based on the declared regional price (DRP), and paid upon the delivery of annually contracted

tonnes.

Declared Regional Price (DRP)

  • Input Capital’s grain marketing team builds this price throughout the year;
  • Determined on August 15th each year, for the current year’s pool of

marketing tonnes;

  • The DRP is an on-farm picked-up price, including freight or trucking costs –

Input keeps a small percentage (typically 5%) of DRP.

Similar to the Capital Stream, revenue recognition is highly seasonal with deliveries during the September to December window.

Mortgage Stream

Example 1 – 25 Year Amortization1 Example 2 – Interest Only1 Features:

  • Mortgage principal is repaid on a straight line amortization schedule with a renewal (or balloon payment) at the end of a 5-

year term. Some mortgages are interest-only for the right counterparties.

  • The principal, the interest rate, and the agreed-upon locked-in canola price determine the number of tonnes required to

service the mortgage payments.

  • A stub year in the first and last years of the mortgage align interest payments to the crop season.

  • Since the 2014 harvest, tonnes due from currently active files

have been materially diversified. Input’s reliance on any single producer has decreased every year – the portfolio has become much more predictable due to smaller volumes from each farmer and higher crop payments.
