For example, one of the following could have a significant impact on revenue levels forecast for the fourth quarter of Aphria: (i) the government of the United Kingdom or any EU the government of a country that materially supplies CC Pharma, closes its border to exports; (ii) the Government of Alberta or Ontario implements a more restrictive “on-site shelter program” or materially adjusts its planned sales orders; (iii) the current loading of the pantry ‘the levels of sales in Quebec reverse the levels of sales before the pandemic; (iv) the government of Alberta, Ontario or Quebec eliminates or reduces delivery methods for retail sales as part of a “reinforcement” “in place” program; (v) the company’s facilities in Leamington or Densborn are experiencing employee absence levels higher than the current levels associated with COVID-19; and / or (vi) the Company’s supply chain partners significantly increase their prices or experience unforeseen major disruptions in their business or have chosen to implement policy changes affecting Aphria in light of the ‘shelters on site’. Without clarity on the expected income levels of the Company, it is improbable to forecast with precision the EBITDA levels on these revised income levels. For all the factors surrounding the growing uncertainty and the short-term financial impact of the pandemic, the Company is suspending its previously announced revenue forecasts, namely $ 575 million at $ 625 millionand adjusted EBITDA of $ 35 million at $ 42 million, for fiscal year 2020. The company intends to restore its annual forecast after the pandemic stabilizes, which may not happen until a point in its fiscal year 2021.
