Urban Barns Foods Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 21, 2007 as HL Ventures Inc. The Company is an urban produce production company that aims to be the supplier of choice for fresh and high-quality organic and conventional fruits and vegetables for urban consumers.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As at April 30, 2015, the Company had not generated significant revenues, had a working capital deficit of $776,569, and had an accumulated deficit of $5,823,161. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to generate future cash flows from operations or obtain additional financing. Management is obtaining working capital through debt or equity financing until such time that the Company’s operations generate positive operating cash flow. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and are expressed in United States dollars. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Urban Barns Foods (Canada) Inc., and Non-Industrial Manufacture Inc. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company’s fiscal year-end is July 31.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts and amounts receivable, valuation of inventory, useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, valuation of convertible debentures, assumptions used to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, and deferred income tax valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

F-5

Accounts receivable represents invoiced amounts to customers for the sale of agricultural products. Amounts are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical experience and current economic conditions. The Company reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on a regular basis. As at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had no allowances for doubtful accounts.

Inventory is comprised of seeds for growing agricultural products and packaging materials, and is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in first-out basis. The Company establishes inventory reserves for estimated obsolete or unsaleable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future and market conditions.

Property and equipment consists of production equipment and is stated at cost and amortized straight-line over five years.

Intangible assets consist of patent development costs. Intangible assets acquired are initially recognized and measured at cost and amortized over its expected useful life once the patents are in use. Impairment tests are conducted annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. The impairment test compares the carrying amount of the intangible asset with its fair value, and an impairment loss is recognized in income for the excess, if any. The amortization methods and estimated useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed annually.

In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

The Company derives revenue from the sale of agricultural products. In accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

F-6

ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had no items that affected comprehensive loss.

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities of integrated operations and other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the period, except for amortization, which is translated on the same basis as the related asset. The resulting exchange gains or losses are recognized in income.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

As of April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As at April 30, 2015, the Company had 31,473,472 (July 31, 2014 - 12,237,027) potentially dilutive shares outstanding.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

F-7

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, amounts due to related parties, and note payable. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations, with the exception of derivative liabilities which is a “Level 2” input.

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Certain financial statement captions have been reclassified from the prior year to conform to the current year presentation.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

F-8

Production equipment includes machinery with a carrying value of $177,499 (July 31, 2014 - $95,190) which was not available for use as at April 30, 2015. As a result, no depreciation of these assets has been recorded.

As at April 30, 2015, the Company had not yet obtained the patents. As a result, no amortization of these assets has been recorded.

F-9

The conversion options of the convertible debentures payable, as disclosed in Note 5, are required to be recorded as derivatives at their estimated fair values on each balance sheet date with changes in fair value reflected in the statements of operations.

The fair value of the derivative liabilities for the March 23, 2015 convertible debenture for $115,000 and the March 23, 2015 convertible debenture for $27,500 were $163,154 and $39,015 on vesting, respectively. The fair values as at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014 are as follows:

During the period ended April 30, 2015, the Company recorded a loss on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $59,669 (2014 - $140,048).

The fair value of the derivative financial liabilities was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

As at April 30, 2015, the Company owed $184,054 (Cdn$223,000) for a promissory note that was issued on October 29, 2014. The note is secured against the Company's net assets, bears interest at a rate of 12.68% per annum, and due the earlier of: (i) the Company raising Cdn$1,000,000 or more through issuance of equity or debt; or (ii) October 29, 2015. As at April 30, 2015, $11,212 (Cdn$13,585) (2014 - $nil) is owed for accrued interest, which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

The Company has adopted a stock option plan pursuant to which options may be granted to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company to a maximum of 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class A common stock at the time of the grant exercisable for the period of up to ten years. The exercise price and the vesting terms of each option are determined by the Board of Directors, or a committee appointed by the Board of Directors.

The following table summarizes the continuity of the Company’s stock options:

Additional information regarding stock options as of April 30, 2015, is as follows:

The fair values for stock options granted have been estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model assuming no expected dividends and the following weighted average assumptions:

The fair value of stock options vested during the period ended April 30, 2015 was $285,981 (2014 - $60,811) which was recorded as stock-based compensation and charged to operations. The weighted average fair value of stock options granted during the nine months ended April 30, 2015 was $0.03 (2014 - $0.03) per option.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Forward Looking Statements

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of this report, including any projections of earnings, revenues or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operation; any statements concerning proposed new products, services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; statements of belief; and any statement of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Such forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the following: competition, promotional costs and the risk of declining revenues. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this filing, and the Company assumes no obligation to update such forward-looking statements. The following discusses the Company’s financial condition and results of operations based upon its consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. It should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended April 30, 2015 and 2014

During the three months ended April 30, 2015, following the opening of the Company’s first growing facility, revenues of $17,052 were generated with a cost of sales of $18,572, resulting in a negative gross margin of $1,520. During the three months ended April 30, 2015, the Company experienced severe water issues with its artesian well and lost a significant amount of production during the quarter as a result. The remedial action taken was to source and install a state of the art ozone water purification system. Since installation, water quality has been excellent for plant growth. Additionally, the Company experienced several broken cables on its Generation 3 growing machines which resulted in numerous production challenges during the period with lost produce and lost production time. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company did not generate any revenue.

The Company incurred operating expenses of $463,796 for the three months ended April 30, 2015, compared with $522,056 during the three months ended April 30, 2014. This decrease was due to lower general and administrative expenses and professional fees offset by higher research and development costs and depreciation expense, resulting from the opening of the Company’s first growing facility.

The Company incurred a net loss of $574,030 for the three months ended April 30, 2015, compared with a net loss of $618,887 during the three months ended April 30, 2014. The decrease in the net loss was due to lower operating costs and lower accretion of discounts on convertible debentures offset by higher charges incurred for changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities, and higher interest expense when compared to the three months ended April 30, 2014.

For the Nine Months Ended April 30, 2015 and 2014

During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, following the opening of the Company’s first growing facility, revenues of $58,388 were generated with a cost of sales of $31,464, resulting in a gross margin of $26,924. During the nine months ended April 30, 2014, the Company did not generate any revenue.

The Company incurred operating expenses of $1,605,059 for the nine months ended April 30, 2015, compared with $1,156,097 during the nine months ended April 30, 2014. This increase was due to higher research and development expenses, higher general and administrative expenses, higher depreciation resulting from the opening of the Company’s first growing facility, and a higher foreign exchange loss.

The Company incurred a net loss of $1,686,849 for the nine months ended April 30, 2015, compared with a net loss of $1,474,139 during the nine months ended April 30, 2014. The increase in the net loss was due to an increase in operating expenses as the Company’s first growing facility was opened during the nine months ended April 30, 2015, offset by lower interest expense and a lower loss on the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table provides selected financial data about the Company for the quarter ended April 30, 2015:

As of April 30, 2015, the Company had cash of $40,931, total current assets of $243,239, total current liabilities of $1,019,808 and a working capital deficit of $776,569, compared to cash of $75,969, total current assets of $201,176, total current liabilities of $244,300, and a working capital deficit of $43,124 as of July 31, 2014. The increase in the Company’s working capital deficit is the result of the issuance of a promissory note in the amount of $180,631 to the Company’s majority shareholder, the issuance of two promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $94,370 to one of the Company’s directors, the issuance of convertible debentures in the amount of $142,500, the issuance of a promissory note in the amount of $166,000, and the recording of the derivative liability pertaining to the conversion option of the convertible debentures. The proceeds of the three promissory notes and convertible debentures were used to support the operating costs of the Company’s recently opened first growing facility.

Cash flows from Operating Activities

During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company used $1,014,042 of cash for operating activities compared to $434,707 for the nine months ended April 30, 2014. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was attributed to operating costs that were incurred for the growing facility in the Montreal area during the current fiscal year, as the Company commenced operations in this new facility.

Cash flows from Investing Activities

During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company used cash of $143,144 for investing activities compared to $434,707 during the nine months ended April 30, 2014. The decrease in the cash used for investing activities was attributed to a decrease in the amount of cash spent on property and equipment, as the Company incurred costs to complete the development of the growing facility during the prior year.

Cash flows from Financing Activities

During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company received cash proceeds of $1,122,148 from financing activities compared to $1,349,144 during the nine months ended April 30, 2014. During the current period, the Company received $102,380 from related parties; $540,499 from the issuance of common stock; $200,269 in exchange for the issuance of a note payable that is secured against the Company’s assets, bears interest at 12.68% per annum, and is due on the earlier of the Company raising Cdn$1,000,000 in financing or October 29, 2014; and $308,500 from the issuance of convertible debentures. During the nine months ended April 30, 2014, the Company received $1,420,000 in financing from the issuance of common stock net of finders’ fees of $80,000, $48,424 from related parties and $32,500 from the issuance of convertible debentures offset by a repayment of $151,780 to related parties.

As at April 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,823,161. The Company is dependent on funds raised through its equity or debt financings, and revenue generated through the sales of the Company’s products to fund its operations.

The Company anticipates that it will meet its ongoing cash requirements by generating revenues as well as through equity or debt financing. It plans to cooperate with various individuals and institutions in order to acquire the necessary financing required to produce and distribute the Company’s products and anticipates this will continue until it accrues sufficient capital reserves to be able to finance all of its operations independently.

Plan of Operations

The Company’s 2015 operating plan is focused on revenue generation, product line development and machine design refinement. It recently completed its first growing facility in the Montreal area and has begun commercial scale operations and sales. The Company will continue research and development activities in Montreal with McGill University.

The growing facility, with only 50% of the available production space being used, consists of 13 machines and, although small, has considerable production capacity. This new facility is fully operational and has permitted the Company to apply for and receive Canada GAP Food Safety Certification as a Producer and Packer of Lettuce, Basil and MicroGreens, with the third-party auditor noting that Urban Barns’ quality control system goes above and beyond the requirements of the Canada GAP Standard. In addition, the Company recently received the MK Kosher certification for its Oak Leaf lettuce and three types of MicroGreens. The current additions will add to the currently approved Romaine and Butterhead lettuce that obtained Kosher certification in December 2014. The Company’s Montreal area growing facility has commenced shipping product to multiple 4 and 5-star restaurants and hotels, some Kosher retail markets and caterers, as well as large wholesale distributors.

In addition to the commercial barn operation, the Company has been collaborating with McGill University’s McDonald campus to research the optimization of the variables of controlled environment agriculture (CEA) and apply those improvements within its growing facility. McGill has set up one of the Company’s growing machines on its campus and will conduct research in conjunction with its recent NSERC Collaborative Research & Development grant with industry support from Urban Barns.

The Company estimates that its expenses over the next 6 months will be approximately $1,540,000 as summarized in the table below. These estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of its future business activities and its ability to raise capital from investors or other sources.

The Company’s general and administrative expenses for the year will consist of professional fees, office maintenance, communication expenses (cellular, internet, fax and telephone), bank charges, courier and postage costs, office supply costs and fees related to its website. The professional fees will include legal, accounting and auditing fees related to its regulatory filings throughout the year.

Based on its planned expenditures, the Company will require additional funds of approximately $1,500,000 to proceed with its business plan over the next 6 months. If it is not able to obtain additional financing on a timely basis, the Company will be unable to conduct its operations as planned, and will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. In such event, the Company will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease its operations.

Inflation

The amounts presented in the Company’s financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on its operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of April 30, 2015, the Company had one off balance sheet transaction that will have or is reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in its financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. In collaboration with McGill University researcher Dr. Mark Lefsrud of the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, the Company will further develop an indoor plant growth system aimed at expanding locally grown food. With industrial support from the Company, McGill University was awarded an NSERC Collaborative Research & Development (CRD) grant in the amount of $240,000 in order to continue the development of this important project. The grant will run for an initial period of two years with the aim of optimizing light emitting diodes to assess photosynthetic efficiency of horticultural plants. The project is focused on the refinement of the photo synthetically active radiation efficiency (PAR curve) of plants using light emitting diodes (LEDs), and the basic science research will be used to optimize the lighting in the Company’s cubic farming system to maximize production and reduce energy costs.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of these policies are included in note 2 of the Notes to the Financial Statements. The Company has identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and which require the application of significant judgment by the Company’s management.

Inventory

Inventory is comprised of seeds, growing medium, fertilizers for growing agricultural products and packaging materials and is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in first-out basis. The Company establishes inventory reserves for estimated obsolete or unsaleable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future and market conditions.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of patent development costs. Intangible assets acquired are initially recognized and measured at cost and amortized over its expected useful life once the patents are in use. Impairment tests are conducted annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. The impairment test compares the carrying amount of the intangible asset with its fair value, and an impairment loss is recognized in income for the excess, if any. The amortization methods and estimated useful lives of intangible assets are reviewed annually.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represents invoiced amounts to customers for the sale of agricultural products. Amounts are presented net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical experience and current economic conditions. The Company reviews the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts on a regular basis.

Revenue

The Company derives revenue from the sale of agricultural products. In accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

6

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities of integrated operations and other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the period, except for amortization, which is translated on the same basis as the related asset. The resulting exchange gains or losses are recognized in income.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not required.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by it in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of April 30, 2015. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
