Exhibit 99.1
Village Farms Announces $15 Million Registered Direct Equity Investment
from Leading U.S. Institutional Investors
Company believes investment by renowned global firms demonstrates increasing interest in the Company and industry ahead of further regulatory progress
Investment enhances Company’s liquidity position after closing 1Q’26 with $55 million in cash
LAKE MARY, Florida, June 5, 2026 – Village Farms International, Inc. (“Village Farms” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: VFF) today announced it has entered into securities purchase agreements for the purchase and sale of 7,500,000 common shares of the Company in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”). The Offering follows a series of meetings conducted with Village Farms management and two highly selective new institutional capital partners which created considerable interest in a direct investment that was not previously being contemplated.
Michael DeGiglio, President and Chief Executive Officer of Village Farms commented, “We believe that today’s announcement reflects an extraordinary statement of confidence in our future by well renowned U.S. institutional investors who clearly recognized our expanding leadership position and competitive advantages across Europe and North America. While our balance sheet does not require a capital infusion, we took this opportunity as we believe it will enhance the strength of our cap table and welcome institutional capital partners of very high caliber who will support our future growth. We’re proud to see increasing institutional interest ahead of expected further regulatory progress, and believe this represents a tremendous endorsement of Village Farms.”
The Offering is expected to result in gross proceeds of approximately $15 million before deducting placement agent fees and other Offering expenses, enhancing the Company’s strong liquidity position after closing the first quarter of 2026 with $55 million in cash. Net proceeds from the Offering are intended to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, and the Company continues to expect that it will grow its cash balance through positive operating cash flow during the remainder of 2026. Upon closing of the Offering, the Company expects to have a total of 121,811,130 issued and outstanding common shares. Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about June 8, 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners is acting as sole placement agent in connection with the Offering.
The securities described above are being offered pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-280572) which became effective on July 8, 2024. The Offering is being made only by means of a prospectus which is part of the effective registration statement. A prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus relating to the registered direct offering will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and will be available on the SEC's website located at http://www.sec.gov. Additionally, when available, electronic copies of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may be obtained, when available, from A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, 590 Madison Avenue, 28th Floor, New York, NY 10022, or by telephone at (212) 624-2060, or by email at prospectus@allianceg.com.

4933-1757-2018, v.4
