Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Pyxus International, Inc. (the "Company" or "Pyxus") is a global agricultural company with 150 years of experience delivering value-added products and services to businesses and customers. The Company is a trusted provider of responsibly sourced, independently verified, sustainable, and traceable products and ingredients. As the context requires, the "Company" and "Pyxus" also includes the consolidated subsidiaries of Pyxus International, Inc. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to annual reporting on Form 10-K. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Equity Method Investments The Company’s equity method investments and its cost method investments are non-marketable securities. When not required to consolidate its investment in another entity, the Company uses the equity method if it (i) can exercise significant influence over the other entity, and (ii) holds common stock and/or in-substance common stock of the other entity. Under the equity method, investments are carried at cost, plus or minus the Company’s equity in the increases or decreases of the investee’s net assets after the date of acquisition. The Company continually monitors its equity method investments for factors indicating other-than-temporary impairment. The Company's proportionate share of the net income or loss of these entities is included in income from unconsolidated affiliates, net within the consolidated statements of operations. Dividends received from the investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Distributions from equity method investees are accounted for based on the cumulative earnings approach to determine whether they represent a return of investment, or a return on investment. Variable Interest Entities The Company holds variable interests in multiple variable interest entities, which primarily procure or process inventory on behalf of the Company or are securitization entities. These variable interests relate to equity investments, receivables, guarantees, and securitized receivables. The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the majority of these entities as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities, due to the entities’ management and board of directors’ structure. As a result, the majority of these variable interest entities are not consolidated. Creditors of the Company’s variable interest entities do not have recourse against the general credit of the Company. The Company's investments in unconsolidated variable interest entities are classified as investments in unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company's receivables with variable interest entities are classified as notes receivable, related parties and accounts receivable, related parties. See " Note 25. Related Party Transactions " for additional information. The Company's maximum exposure to loss in these variable interest entities is represented by the investments, receivables, guarantees, and the deferred purchase price on the sale of securitized receivables. Use of Estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company 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. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from the Company's estimates and assumptions. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, revenue recognition, pension and postretirement health care benefits, inventory reserves, credit loss reserves, bank loan guarantees to suppliers and unconsolidated subsidiaries, advances to suppliers reserves, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, deferred tax assets an d uncertain income tax positions, intrastate tax credits in Brazil, fair value determinations of financial assets and liabilities, including derivatives, securitized beneficial interests, and counterparty risk. Reclassifications Certain prior-period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Certain prior-period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation in the reconciliation between income tax expense based on income before income taxes, equity in net income of investee companies, and minority interests and the amount computed by applying the U.S. statutory federal income tax rate to income. Certain prior-period amounts were reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation of deferred tax assets (liabilities). See " Note 6. Income Taxes " for additional information. 40 Segment Information During the year ended March 31, 2022, the Company reevaluated its operating and reportable segments under ASC Topic 280 - Segment Reporting . Based on our reevaluation, the Company concluded that the economic characteristics of our five Leaf region operations in North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa were similar. Each geographic region derives its revenues mainly from shipping processed tobacco to manufacturers of cigarettes and other consumer tobacco products around the world, with a smaller percentage of revenue in each region being derived from performing third-party tobacco processing services. The three product category operating segments other than Leaf do not individually or in the aggregate meet the quantitative and qualitative thresholds to be individually reportable and have been combined and reported in an "All Other" category. The one Leaf reportable segment is consistent with information used by the chief operating decision maker to assess performance, make operating decisions, and allocate resources. The Company evaluates the operating performance of its one segment based upon information included in management reports. Corporate general expenses are allocated to the segments based upon segment selling, general, and administrative expenses. As a result of this reevaluation, effective during the fourth quarter of the year ended March 31, 2022, the Company has eight operating segments organized by geographic area and product category that are aggregated into one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Leaf. The All Other category is included for purposes of reconciliation of respective balances for the Leaf segment to the consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition The Company's revenue consists primarily of the sale of processed tobacco and fees charged for processing and related services to the manufacturers of tobacco products. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when the transfer of control of the distinct product or service to the customer occurs. For products, control is transferred and revenue is recognized at a point in time, in accordance with the shipping terms of the contract. For services, control is transferred and revenue is recognized over time using the input method based on a kilogram of packed tobacco. A kilogram of processed tobacco (or tobacco processing services resulting in a kilogram of processed tobacco) is the only material and distinct performance obligation for the Company’s tobacco revenue streams. Consideration is attributed to the performance of this obligation. The Company does not disclose information related to its unsatisfied performance obligations with an expected duration of one year or less. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Contract costs primarily include labor, material, shipping and handling, and overhead expenses. Contract Balances The Company generally records a receivable when revenue is recognized as the timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment from customers. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 60 days. The Company's trade receivables do not bear interest, and they are recorded at the invoiced amount less an estimated allowance for expected credit losses. In addition to estimating an allowance based on specific identification of certain receivables that have a higher probability of not being paid, the Company also records an estimate for expected credit losses for the remaining receivables in the aggregate using a loss-rate method that considers historical bad debts, age of customer receivable balances, and current customer receivable balances. Additionally, the Company considers future reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions to adjust historical loss rate percentages, as necessary. Balances are written-off when determined to be uncollectible. T he provision for expected credit losses is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Significant Judgments The Company identified two main forms of variable consideration in its contracts with customers: warehousing fees for storing customer-controlled tobacco until the customer requests shipment and claims resulting from tobacco that does not meet customer specifications. Warehousing fees are either included in the price of tobacco based on the customers' best estimate of the date they will request shipment or separately charged using a per-day storage rate. When the Company enters into a contract with a customer, the price communicated is the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive. Price adjustments for tobacco not meeting customer specifications for shrinkage, improper blend, or chemical makeup, etc. are handled through a claims allowance that is assessed quarterly. Since the Company has a large number of customer contracts with similar characteristics, the volume of tobacco sold each year is substantial, and the Company has historical data related to claims, the Company is able to estimate the amount of expected claims using the expected value method. Taxes Collected from Customers Certain subsidiaries are subject to value-added taxes on local sales. Value-added taxes on local sales are recorded in sales and other operating revenues and cost of goods and services sold in the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and Handling The Company elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill its performance obligations, regardless of when control transfers. Shipping and handling fees that are billed to customers are recognized in sales and other operating 41 revenues and the associated shipping and handling costs are recognized in cost of goods and services sold in the consolidated statements of operations. Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the expected future tax consequences of events that are recognized in the consolidated financial statements in different periods than they are recognized for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which these items are expected to reverse. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income in the appropriate jurisdiction prior to the expiration of the carryforward periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. When assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers carryback potential, historical earnings, future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences (including liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits), forecasted operating profits and tax planning strategies. The Company’s provision for income taxes is based on pre-tax income, statutory tax rates, and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertainties if it believes it is more-likely-than-not it will be sustained based on the technical merits. Penalties and interest related to income taxes, if incurred, are included in income tax expense. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. Inventories, Net Costs in inventory include processed tobacco inventory, unprocessed tobacco inventory, and other inventory. Costs of unprocessed tobacco inventories are determined by the average cost method, which include the cost of green tobacco. Costs of processed tobacco inventories are determined by the average cost method, which include both the cost of unprocessed tobacco, as well as direct and indirect costs related to processing the product. Costs of other inventory are determined by the first-in, first-out method, which include costs of packing materials, non-tobacco agricultural products, and agricultural supplies including seed, fertilizer, herbicides, and pesticides. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value ("LCM"). The Company evaluates its inventories for LCM adjustments by country and type of inventory. Processed tobacco and unprocessed tobacco are evaluated separately for LCM purposes. The Company compares the cost of its processed tobacco to net realizable value based on the estimated selling price of similar grades when evaluating those balances for LCM adjustments. The Company also considers whether its processed tobacco is committed to a customer, whereby the expected sales price is utilized in determining the net realizable value for committed tobacco. In addition, the Company writes-down inventory balances for estimates of obsolescence. LCM and obsolescence inventory write-downs are recorded in cost of goods and services sold within the consolidated statements of operations. Advances to Tobacco Suppliers, Net The Company purchases seeds, fertilizer, pesticides, and other products related to growing tobacco and advances them to tobacco suppliers to assist in crop production. These seasonal advances are short term, represent prepaid inventory, and are recorded as advances to tobacco suppliers. Upon delivery of tobacco, part of the purchase price to the supplier is paid in cash and part through a reduction of the advance balance. The advances applied to the delivery are reclassified from advances to unprocessed inventory. The Company also has noncurrent advances, which generally represent the cost of advances to tobacco suppliers for infrastructure, such as curing barns, recovered through the delivery of tobacco to the Company by the tobacco suppliers. Tobacco suppliers may not be able to settle the entire amount of advances due in a given year. In these situations, the Company may allow the farmers to deliver tobacco over future crop years to recover its advances. Noncurrent advances to tobacco suppliers are recorded in other noncurrent assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company accounts for its advances to tobacco suppliers using a cost accumulation model, which reports advances at the lower of cost or recoverable amounts exclusive of the mark-up and interest. The mark-up and interest on its advances are recognized upon delivery of tobacco as a decrease in the cost of the current crop. Unrecovered advances are recorded in cost of goods and services sold in the consolidated statements of operations for abnormal yield adjustments or unrecovered advances from prior crops. Normal yield adjustments are capitalized into the cost of the current crop and are recorded in cost of goods and services sold as that crop is sold. 42 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill is allocated to each reporting unit. A reporting unit is an operating segment, or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The components within the Company’s operating segments are aggregated into eight reporting units due to their similar economic characteristics. Goodwill is not subject to amortization and is tested for impairment annually, on the first day of the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, or whenever events and circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. The Company's annual goodwill impairment test performed for the year ended March 31, 2022 resulted in goodwill being fully impaired. See " Note 13. Goodwill and Other Intangibles, Net " for additional information. The Company utilizes a qualitative assessment to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the Company's qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, no further analysis is performed. Otherwise, the Company performs a quantitative assessment using the discounted cash flow ("DCF") method of the income approach. The future cash flows of the Company’s reporting units are projected based on estimates of future revenues, gross margins, operating income, excess net working capital, capital expenditures, and other factors. The Company utilizes estimated revenue growth rates and cash flow projections. The discount rates utilized in the DCF method are based on a weighted-average cost of capital determined from relevant market comparisons and adjusted for specific reporting unit risks, country risk premiums, and capital structure. A terminal value estimated growth rate is applied to the final year of the projected period and reflects the Company’s estimate of perpetual growth. The Company then calculates a present value of the respective cash flows for each reporting unit to arrive at an estimate of fair value under the income approach. The Company has intangible assets with definite useful lives. These intangible assets are assessed annually and tested for impairment whenever factors indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The trade name, customer relationship, and technology intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over fourteen , nine to twelve years , and eight years , respectively. The amortization period is the term of the contract or, if no term is specified in the contract, management’s best estimate of the useful life based on past experience. Technology includes internally developed software, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over three to five years once the software testing is complete. Events and changes in circumstance may either result in a revision in the estimated useful life or impairment of an intangible. Amortization expense associated with finite-lived intangible assets is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Leases The Company has operating leases for land, buildings, automobiles, and other equipment that expire at various dates through 2040. The Company does not have material finance leases. Leases for real estate generally have initial terms ranging from 2 to 15 years, excluding renewal options. Leases for equipment generally have initial terms ranging from 2 to 5 years excluding renewal options. Most leases have fixed rentals, with many of the real estate leases requiring additional payments for real estate taxes. These lease terms may include optional renewals, terminations or purchases, which are considered in the Company’s assessments when such options are reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company measures right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities based on the present value of remaining lease payments, including in-substance fixed payments, the current payment amount when payments depend on an index or rate (e.g., inflation adjustments, market renewals), and the amount the Company believes is probable to be paid to the lessor under residual value guarantees, when applicable. Lease contracts may include fixed payments for non-lease components, such as maintenance, which are included in the measurement of lease liabilities for certain asset classes based on the Company’s election to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company does not recognize short-term leases, those lease contracts with durations of twelve months or less, in the consolidated balance sheets. As applicable borrowing rates are not typically implied within the lease arrangements, the Company discounts lease payments based on its estimated incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement, or modification, which is based on the Company’s estimated credit rating, the lease term at commencement, and the contract currency of the lease arrangement. Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings are depreciated over a range of nine to forty years . Machinery and equipment are depreciated over a range of two to nineteen years . Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The cost of major improvements are capitalized. Upon sale or disposition of an asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in o ther expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The evaluation is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows at which the asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties and may be estimated using a number of techniques, including 43 quoted market prices or valuations, present value techniques based on estimates of cash flows, or multiples of earnings or revenue performance measures. Guarantees The Company's guarantees are primarily related to bank loans to suppliers for crop production financing. The Company guarantees bank loans of certain unconsolidated subsidiaries in Asia and South America. Under longer-term arrangements, the Company may guarantee financing on suppliers’ construction of curing barns or other tobacco production assets. Guaranteed loans are generally repaid concurrent with the delivery of tobacco to the Company. The Company is obligated to repay guaranteed loans should the supplier default. If default occurs, the Company has recourse against its various suppliers and their production assets. The fair value of the Company's guarantees are recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and included in crop costs, except for the joint venture in Brazil, which are included in other receivables. In Brazil, certain suppliers obtain government subsidized rural credit financing from local banks that is guaranteed by the Company. Upon delivery of tobacco, the Company remits payments to the local banks on behalf of the suppliers before paying the supplier. Amounts owed to suppliers are recorded in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheets. Rural credit financing repayment is due to local banks based on contractual due dates. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company uses forward or option currency contracts to manage risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates on foreign operations. These contracts are for green tobacco purchases, processing costs, and selling, general, and administrative expenses. The Company does not hold derivatives contracts for speculative or trading purposes. Derivative financial instruments are recorded in other current assets and other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings, unless the derivative is designated and qualifies to be in a hedge accounting relationship. For derivatives designated in a hedge accounting relationship, the Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at inception and on an ongoing basis. If a hedge relationship is no longer expected to be effective, the derivative in that relationship is de-designated and hedge accounting is discontinued. Changes in fair value of foreign currency derivatives designated in cash flow hedging relationships are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets and reclassified to earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. Cash flows from derivatives are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows in the same category as the cash flows from the underlying hedged items. The Company has elected not to offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Retirement Benefits The Company maintains various excess benefit and supplemental plans that provide additional benefits to certain individuals in key positions and individuals whose compensation and the resulting benefits that would have actually been paid are limited by regulations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, a Supplemental Retirement Account Plan defined contribution plan is maintained. Additional non-U.S. plans sponsored by certain subsidiaries cover certain of the full-time employees located in Germany, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. Postretirement Health and Life Insurance Benefits The Company provides certain health and life insurance benefits to retired U.S. employees (and their eligible dependents) who meet specified age and service requirements. The plan excludes new employees after September 2005 and caps the Company’s annual cost commitment to postretirement benefits for retirees. The Company retains the right, subject to existing agreements, to modify or eliminate these postretirement health and life insurance benefits in the future. The Company provides certain health and life insurance benefits to retired Brazilian directors and certain retirees located in Europe including their eligible dependents who meet specified requirements. Plan Assets The Company's policy is to contribute amounts to the plans sufficient to meet or exceed funding requirements of local governmental rules and regulations. The Company's investment objectives for plan assets are to generate consistent total investment return to pay anticipated plan benefits, while minimizing long-term costs and portfolio volatility. The financial objectives underlying this policy include maintaining plan contributions at a reasonable level relative to benefits provided and assuring unfunded obligations do not grow to a level that would adversely affect the Company's financial health. Portfolio performance is measured against investment objectives and objective benchmarks, including but not limited to: FTSE 90 Day Treasury Bill, Bloomberg Intermediate Govt/Credit, Bloomberg Aggregate, Russell 1000 Value, Russell 1000 Growth, Russell 2500 Value, Russell 2500 Growth, MSCI EAFE, HFR Absolute Return, and HFR Equity Hedge. The portfolio objective is to 44 exceed the actuarial return on assets assumption. The Company is exploring partial risk transfer and or full plan terminations. Management and the plan's consultant regularly review portfolio allocations and periodically rebalance the portfolio to the targeted allocations according to the guidelines set forth in the Company's investment policy. Equity securities do not include the Company's common stock. The Company's diversification and risk control processes serve to minimize the concentration and experience of risk. There are no significant concentrations of risk, in terms of sector, industry, geography, or individual company or companies. The Company’s plan assets primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, equity and fixed income funds, real estate investments, and diversified investments. Plan assets are measured at fair value annually on March 31, the measurement date. The following are descriptions, valuation methodologies, and inputs used to determine the fair value of each major category of plan assets: • Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investment funds, primarily in diversified portfolios of investment grade money market instruments that are valued using quoted market prices or other valuation methods, and classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. • Investments in equity and fixed income mutual funds are publicly traded and valued primarily using quoted market prices and generally classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Investments in commingled funds used in certain non-U.S. pension plans are not publicly traded, but the underlying assets held in these funds are traded in active markets and the prices for these assets are readily observable. Holdings in these commingled funds are generally classified as Level 2 investments. • Real estate investments include those in private limited partnerships that invest in various domestic and international commercial and residential real estate projects and publicly traded REIT securities. The fair values of private real estate assets are typically determined by using income and/or cost approaches or comparable sales approach, taking into consideration discount and capitalization rates, financial conditions, local market conditions, and the status of the capital markets, and are generally classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Publicly traded REIT securities are valued primarily using quoted market prices and are generally classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. • Diversified investments include mutual funds with an absolute return strategy. Mutual fund investments with absolute return strategies are publicly traded and valued using quoted market prices and are generally classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement The Company translates assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiaries from their respective functional currencies to USD using exchange rates in effect at period end. The Company's results of operations and its cash flows are translated using average exchange rates for each reporting period. Resulting currency translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated balance sheets. The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries, for which the USD is the functional currency and which have certain transactions denominated in a local currency, are remeasured into USD. The remeasurement of local currencies into USD results in remeasurement adjustments that are included in net income. Exchange gains (losses) from remeasurement are recorded in cost of goods and services sold and o ther expense, net within the consolidated statements of operations. Securitized Receivables The Company sells trade receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under multiple accounts receivable securitization facilities. Under the facilities, the receivables sold for cash are removed from the consolidated balance sheets. Under some of the facilities, a portion of the purchase price for the receivables is paid by the unaffiliated financial institutions in cash and the balance is a deferred purchase price receivable, which is paid as payments on the receivables are collected from account debtors. The net cash proceeds received by the Company in cash at the time of sale (cash purchase price) are disclosed as an operating activity in the statements of consolidated cash flows. The deferred purchase price receivable represents a continuing involvement and a beneficial interest in the transferred financial assets and is recognized at fair value as part of the sale transaction. The deferred purchase price receivables are included in trade and other receivables, net in the consolidated balance sheets and are valued using unobservable inputs (i.e., Level three inputs), primarily discounted cash flow. The net cash proceeds received by the Company as deferred purchase price are disclosed as an investing activity in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Additionally, beneficial interests received for transferring trade receivables in a securitization transaction are disclosed as a noncash investing activity in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The difference between the carrying amount of the receivables sold under these facilities and the sum of the cash and fair value of the other assets received at the time of transfer is recognized as a loss on sale of the related receivables and recorded in o ther expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. Program costs are recorded in o ther expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. 45 Stock-Based Compensation The Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2020 Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan") on November 18, 2020. The 2020 Plan provides the Company the flexibility to grant a variety of stock-based awards including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance share awards, and incentive awards to its officers, directors, and employees. For stock-based awards without performance conditions, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. For stock-based awards with performance conditions, the Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period when the Company determines it is probable that the performance condition will be satisfied. The Company estimates forfeitures of stock-based awards using historical experience. Stock-based compensation expense, if any, is included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. 2. New Accounting Standards Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . ASU 2019-12 eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocations, the methodology for calculating income taxes during interim periods when there are changes in tax laws or when year-to-date losses exceed anticipated losses, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences in foreign investments. This guidance also simplifies aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes that are partially based on income, separate financial statements of legal entities not subject to tax, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The guidance became effective for the Company on April 1, 2021. The adoption of this new accounting standard did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures. In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance . This ASU created ASC Topic 832, Government Assistance , and requires certain information be disclosed regarding assistance received from a government entity when either a grant or contribution accounting model is applied. The new disclosures are required for annual periods for transactions with a government entity that are within the scope of the Topic. The guidance became effective for the Company on April 1, 2022. The adoption of this new accounting standard did not have a material impact on the Company's disclosures for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. 3. Revenue Recognition Product revenue is primarily processed tobacco sold to the customer. Processing and other revenues are mainly contracts to process customer-owned green tobacco. During processing, ownership remains with the customers. All Other revenue is primarily composed of revenue from the sale of e-liquids and non-tobacco agriculture products. The following disaggregates sales and other operating revenues by major source, with the All Other category being included for purposes of reconciliation of the respective balances below of the Leaf segment (the Company's sole reportable segment) to the consolidated financial statements : Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Leaf: Product revenue $ 1,812,170 $ 1,531,805 Processing and other revenues 88,388 95,433 Total sales and other operating revenues 1,900,558 1,627,238 All Other: Total sales and other operating revenues 14,323 12,624 Total sales and other operating revenues $ 1,914,881 $ 1,639,862 46 Significant Judgments The following summarizes activity in the claims allowance: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Balance, beginning of period $ 1,130 $ 1,830 Additions 4,680 1,586 Payments ( 3,460 ) ( 2,286 ) Balance, end of period $ 2,350 $ 1,130 Contract Balances The following summarizes activity in the allowance for expected credit losses: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Balance, beginning of period $ ( 24,541 ) $ ( 20,900 ) Additions ( 2,316 ) ( 4,212 ) Write-offs 2,127 571 Balance, end of period ( 24,730 ) ( 24,541 ) Trade receivables 210,081 272,218 Trade receivables, net $ 185,351 $ 247,677 Taxes Collected from Customers Value-added taxes were $ 28,302 and $ 27,274 for the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. 4. Other Expense, Net The following summarizes the significant components of other expense, net: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Losses on sale of receivables (1) $ ( 10,434 ) $ ( 5,833 ) Foreign currency gains (losses) 1,057 ( 2,776 ) Note receivable write-off ( 2,050 ) — Gain on sale of fixed assets 1,389 3,818 Miscellaneous (expense) income, net ( 985 ) 1,689 Total $ ( 11,023 ) $ ( 3,102 ) (1) See " Note 17. Securitized Receivables " for additional information. 5. Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges The Company continued its focus on cost saving initiatives. The employee separation and asset impairment charges for the period ended March 31, 2023 were primarily related to the restructuring of certain non-leaf agriculture operations. The employee separation and asset impairment charges for the periods ended March 31, 2022 were primarily related to the write-off of the Company's remaining industrial hemp cannabidiol ("CBD") extraction equipment and the continued restructuring of certain leaf operations. The following summarizes the Company's restructuring and asset impairment charges: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Employee separation charges $ 650 $ 2,292 Asset impairment and other noncash charges 4,035 5,739 Total restructuring and asset impairment charges $ 4,685 $ 8,031 47 6. Income Taxes Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes The following summarizes the changes to unrecognized tax benefits and related interest and penalties : Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Balance at April 1 $ 17,725 $ 18,358 Increase (decrease) for prior year tax positions 1,449 ( 660 ) Increase for current year tax positions 634 — Reduction for settlements ( 3,480 ) — Impact of changes in exchange rates ( 243 ) 27 Balance at March 31 (1) $ 16,085 $ 17,725 Accrued interest 1,753 1,777 Accrued penalties 1,447 831 Balance at March 31 (1) $ 19,285 $ 20,333 (1) As of March 31, 2023, $ 11,177 would impact the Company's effective tax rate, if recognized. The Company recognized $( 24 ) and $ 303 of interest (benefit) expense, net as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recognized $ 616 and $ 61 of penalties expense as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Due to the Company’s global operations, numerous tax audits may be ongoing throughout the world at any point in time. The Company's income tax liabilities are based on estimates of potential income taxes due upon the conclusion of such audits and are updated to reflect changes in facts and circumstances, as they become known. Due to the uncertain and complex application of tax regulations, it is possible that the resolution of audits may result in liabilities which could be materially different from these estimates. In such an event, the Company will record additional income tax expense or benefit in the period in which such resolution occurs or if estimates or judgments change. The Company does not expect to settle material uncertain tax positions in the next twelve months. The Company and its subsidiaries file a U.S. federal consolidated income tax return as well as returns in several U.S. states and a number of foreign jurisdictions. As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s earliest open tax year for U.S. federal income tax purposes was its year ended March 31, 2020. Open tax years in state and foreign jurisdictions generally range from three to six years. In applicable jurisdictions, the Company’s tax attributes from prior periods remain subject to adjustment. Income Tax Provision The components of (loss) income before income taxes and other items consisted of the following: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 U.S. $ ( 43,874 ) $ ( 68,489 ) Non-U.S. 21,252 ( 10,875 ) Total $ ( 22,622 ) $ ( 79,364 ) 48 The details of the amount shown for income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations are as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Current: Federal (1) $ 16,353 $ 12 State 337 — Non-U.S. 17,593 16,515 Total Current 34,283 16,527 Deferred: Federal ( 592 ) ( 243 ) State 2 — Non-U.S. 434 ( 3,644 ) Total Deferred ( 156 ) ( 3,887 ) Income tax expense $ 34,127 $ 12,640 (1) Primarily due to the Debt Exchange Transactions (as defined below). Refer to " Note 16. Debt Arrangements " for further details regarding the Debt Exchange Transactions. The difference between income tax expense based on (loss) income before income taxes and other items and the amount computed by applying the U.S. statutory federal income tax rate to income are as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2023 Year Ended March 31, 2022 Tax benefit at U.S. statutory rate $ ( 4,750 ) $ ( 16,666 ) Effect of non-U.S. income taxes ( 3,418 ) ( 961 ) U.S. taxes on non-U.S. earnings 6,389 205 Increase (decrease) in reserves for uncertain tax positions 2,397 ( 315 ) Withholding tax expense 3,058 1,488 Tax credits ( 3,853 ) ( 1,150 ) Tax incentives ( 2,280 ) — Nondeductible interest 2,559 2,610 Waived intercompany interest expense — 3,960 Exchange effects and currency translation 3,101 4,344 Goodwill impairment — 7,148 Change in valuation allowance (1) 30,412 8,053 Other, net 512 3,924 Income tax expense $ 34,127 $ 12,640 (1) The change in valuation allowance, which is presented without exchange effects and currency translation, for the year ended March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by $ 20,823 of deferred tax assets generated by the Debt Exchange Transactions for which the Company is not likely to realize a future benefit. Refer to " Note 16. Debt Arrangements " for further details regarding the Debt Exchange Transactions. 49 The following summarizes deferred tax assets (liabilities): March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 Deferred tax assets: Non-deductible interest carryforward $ 24,331 $ 23,074 Original issue discount (1) 20,326 — Reserves and accruals 25,734 21,896 Tax loss carryforwards 15,886 13,728 Other 5,686 9,573 Gross deferred tax assets 91,963 68,271 Valuation allowance (1) ( 59,506 ) ( 32,641 ) Total deferred tax assets $ 32,457 $ 35,630 Deferred tax liabilities: Unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries $ ( 29,045 ) $ ( 27,918 ) Derivative transactions ( 1,318 ) ( 2,790 ) Intangible assets ( 1,884 ) ( 2,776 ) Other ( 3,448 ) ( 7,318 ) Total deferred tax liabilities $ ( 35,695 ) $ ( 40,802 ) Net deferred tax liability $ ( 3,238 ) $ ( 5,172 ) (1) The increase in valuation allowance as of March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by $ 20,823 of deferred tax assets generated by the Debt Exchange Transactions for which the Company is not likely to realize a future benefit. Refer to " Note 16. Debt Arrangements " for further details regarding the Debt Exchange Transactions. The following summarizes the breakdown between deferred tax assets (liabilities): March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 Noncurrent asset $ 6,662 $ 6,498 Noncurrent liability ( 9,900 ) ( 11,670 ) Net deferred tax liability $ ( 3,238 ) $ ( 5,172 ) The following summarizes the change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets: Balance at March 31, 2021 $ 25,273 Changes to expenses 8,624 Changes to other comprehensive income ( 1,256 ) Balance at March 31, 2022 32,641 Changes to expenses (1) 27,598 Changes to other comprehensive income ( 733 ) Balance at March 31, 2023 $ 59,506 (1) The increase in valuation allowance as of March 31, 2023 was primarily driven by $ 20,823 of deferred tax assets generated by the Debt Exchange Transactions for which the Company is not likely to realize a future benefit.

The following summarizes the gross amount and expiration dates of our operating loss carryforwards at March 31, 2023: Expiration Date Amounts Non-U.S. net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards 2024-2028 $ 20,927 Non-U.S. net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards Thereafter 5,170 Non-U.S. net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards Indefinite 31,899 Total $ 57,996 50 Under current U.S. tax regulations, in general, repatriation of foreign earnings to the U.S. can be completed without incurring material incremental U.S. tax. However, repatriation of foreign earnings could subject the Company to U.S. state and non-U.S. jurisdictional taxes (including withholding taxes) on distributions or sales of minority owned investments. The Company has not recorded a deferred tax liability for U.S. federal, U.S. state, or foreign tax from foreign subsidiary unremitted earnings and profits where an indefinite reinvestment assertion was made on the basis that this group of foreign subsidiaries does not expect to have available excess cash and cash equivalents to remit in the foreseeable future or has specific needs for available excess cash. The unrecorded tax liability associated with indefinitely reinvested foreign subsidiary earnings is not practicable to estimate due to the inherent complexity of the Company's global operations. 7.

The remaining $ 31,814 of impairment occurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. Goodwill During the year ended March 31, 2022, the Company performed its annual assessment of goodwill for its reporting units. The assessment of qualitative factors indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of each reporting unit was less than its carrying value primarily due to a sustained decline in the implied value of the Company's long-term debt and equity based on public trading as well as uncertainty in the Company's estimate of timing for future operating results due to the recent economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including related variants. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The fair value for each reporting unit was determined using the DCF method of the income approach. The quantitative impairment test conducted for each reporting unit concluded that the fair value of each reporting unit was less than its carrying value. The excess of carrying value over fair value for each reporting unit exceeded the amount of goodwill that was allocated to the reporting unit, leading the Company to record a full impairment of goodwill at each reporting unit as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2022 Leaf - Africa $ 8,341 Leaf - Asia 6,311 Leaf - Europe 5,566 Leaf - North America 3,901 Leaf - South America 5,730 E-liquids 1,965 Total $ 31,814 53 Other Intangible Assets, Net The following summarizes the estimated intangible asset amortization expense for the next five years and beyond: For Fiscal Years Ended Customer Relationships Technology (1) Trade Names Total 2024 $ 2,175 $ 1,659 $ 807 $ 4,641 2025 2,175 1,585 807 4,567 2026 2,175 1,465 807 4,447 2027 2,175 1,490 807 4,472 2028 2,175 1,543 807 4,525 Thereafter 9,607 1,133 5,180 15,920 Total $ 20,482 $ 8,875 $ 9,215 $ 38,572 (1) Estimated amortization expense for technology is based on costs accumulated as of March 31, 2023.

("Pyxus Holdings"), certain subsidiaries of Pyxus Holdings (together with Pyxus Holdings, the "Borrowers"), and the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pyxus Parent, Inc. ("Pyxus Parent"), as guarantors, entered into an ABL Credit Agreement (as amended, the "ABL Credit Agreement"), dated as of February 8, 2022, by and among Pyxus Holdings, as Borrower Agent, the Borrowers and parent guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto, and PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, to establish an asset-based revolving credit facility (the "ABL Credit Facility"), the proceeds of which may be used to provide for the ongoing working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrowers, the Company, Pyxus Parent, and their subsidiaries. The ABL Credit Facility may be used for revolving credit loans and letters of credit from time to time up to an initial maximum principal amount of $ 100,000 , subject to the limitations described below in this paragraph. The ABL Credit Facility includes a $ 20,000 uncommitted accordion feature that permits Pyxus Holdings, under certain conditions, to solicit the lenders under the ABL Credit Facility to provide additional revolving loan commitments to increase the aggregate amount of the revolving loan commitments under the ABL Credit Facility not to exceed a maximum principal amount of $ 120,000 . The amount available under the ABL Credit Facility is limited by a borrowing base consisting of certain eligible accounts receivable and inventory, reduced by specified reserves, as follows: • 85 % of eligible accounts receivable, plus • the lesser of (i) 85 % of the book value of Eligible Extended Terms Receivables (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) and (ii) $ 5,000 , plus • 90 % of eligible credit insured accounts receivable, plus • the lesser of (i) 70 % of eligible inventory valued at the lower of cost (based on a first-in first-out basis) and market value thereof (net of intercompany profits) or (ii) 85 % of the net-orderly-liquidation value percentage of eligible inventory, minus • applicable reserves. At March 31, 2023, $ 75,000 was available for borrowing under the ABL Credit Facility, after reducing availability by the aggregate borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility of $ 25,000 outstanding on that date and the $ 20,000 of Domestic Availability (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) required to be maintained. Weighted average borrowings outstanding under the ABL Credit Facility during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 were $ 70,247 . The ABL Credit Facility permits both base rate borrowings and borrowings based upon the Bloomberg-Short-Term Bank Yield Index rate ("BSBY"). Borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to one, three, or six-month reserve-adjusted BSBY Rate plus 300 basis points or 200 basis points above base rate, as applicable, with a fee on unutilized commitments at an annual rate of 37.5 basis points. The ABL Credit Agreement was amended on May 23, 2023, which extended the maturity of the ABL Credit Facility to February 8, 2027. The outstanding amount under the ABL Credit Facility is recorded as noncurrent as of March 31, 2023, and the long-term debt repayment schedule in the table above reflects the ABL Credit Facility's extended maturity. Refer to " Note 27. Subsequent Events " for additional information. The ABL Credit Facility may be prepaid from time to time, in whole or in part, without prepayment or premium, subject to a termination fee upon the permanent reduction of commitments under the ABL Credit Facility of 300 basis points for terminations in the first year after entry into the ABL Credit Agreement, 200 basis points for terminations in the second year and 100 basis points for termination in the third year. In addition, customary mandatory prepayments of the loans under the ABL Credit Facility are required upon the occurrence of certain events including, without limitation, outstanding borrowing exposures exceeding the borrowing base, certain dispositions of assets outside of the ordinary course of business in respect of certain collateral securing the ABL Credit Facility and certain casualty and condemnation events. With respect to base rate loans, accrued interest is payable monthly in arrears and, with respect to BSBY loans, accrued interest is payable monthly and on the last day of any applicable interest period. The Borrowers’ obligations under the ABL Credit Facility (and certain related obligations) are (a) guaranteed by Pyxus Parent, and the Company and all of Pyxus Holdings’ wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, and each of Pyxus Holdings’ future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries is required to guarantee the ABL Credit Facility on a senior secured basis (collectively, the "ABL Loan Parties") and (b) secured by the collateral, as described below, which is owned by the ABL Loan Parties. Cash Dominion. Under the terms of the ABL Credit Facility, if (i) an event of default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) excess borrowing availability under the ABL Credit Facility (based on the lesser of the commitments thereunder and the borrowing base) (the "Excess Availability") falls below 10 % of the total commitments under the ABL Credit Facility at such time, or (iii) Domestic Availability (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) being less than $ 20,000 , the ABL Loan Parties will become subject to cash dominion, which will require daily prepayment of loans under the ABL Credit Facility with the cash deposited 57 in certain deposit accounts of the ABL Loan Parties, including concentration accounts, and will restrict the ABL Loan Parties’ ability to transfer cash from their concentration accounts to their disbursement accounts. Such cash dominion period (a "Dominion Period") shall end when (i) if arising as a result of a continuing event of default, such event of default ceases to exist, (ii) if arising as a result of non-compliance with the Excess Availability threshold, Excess Availability shall be equal to or greater than 10 % of the total commitments under the ABL Credit Facility for a period of 30 consecutive days and no event of default is continuing, or (iii) if arising as a result of Domestic Availability being less than $ 20,000 , Domestic Availability is greater than $ 20,000 for a period of 30 consecutive days and no event of default is continuing. Covenants. The ABL Credit Agreement governing the ABL Credit Facility contains (i) a springing covenant requiring that the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio be no less than 1.10 to 1.00 during any Dominion Period and (ii) a covenant requiring Domestic Availability greater than $ 20,000 at all times until audited financial statements for fiscal year ending March 31, 2023 are delivered under the ABL Credit Agreement. The ABL Credit Agreement governing the ABL Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants (subject, in each case, to exceptions and qualifications) and events of defaults, including covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things: • incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified stock or preferred stock; • make investments; • pay dividends and make other restricted payments; • sell certain assets; • create liens; • enter into sale and leaseback transactions; • consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; • enter into transactions with affiliates; and • designate subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement).

The Initial DDTL Facility Credit Agreement established a $ 120,000 delayed-draw term loan credit facility (the "Initial DDTL Facility") under which the full amount has been drawn (the "Initial DDTL Loans") by March 31, 2022. The proceeds of the Initial DDTL Loans were used to provide working capital and for other general corporate purposes of Intabex, the guarantors of the Initial DDTL Loans and their subsidiaries. Amounts prepaid or repaid in respect of Initial DDTL Loans were not permitted to be reborrowed under the Initial DDTL Facility. Interest on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Initial DDTL Loans accrued at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 9.0 %, subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.5 %, for LIBOR loans or, for loans that are not LIBOR loans, at an annual rate of an alternative base rate (as specified in the Initial DDTL Facility Credit Agreement) plus 8.0 %.

Foreign Seasonal Lines of Credit Excluding its long-term credit agreements, the Company has typically financed its non-U.S. operations with uncommitted short-term seasonal lines of credit arrangements with a number of banks. These operating lines are generally seasonal in nature, typically extending for a term of 180 to 365 days corresponding to the tobacco crop cycle in that location. These facilities are typically uncommitted in that the lenders have the right to cease making loans and demand repayment of loans at any time or at specified dates. These loans are generally renewed at the outset of each tobacco season. Certain of the foreign seasonal lines of credit are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. At March 31, 2023, the total borrowing capacity under individual foreign seasonal lines of credit range up to $ 131,840 . At March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company was permitted to borrow under foreign seasonal lines of credit up to a total $ 716,080 and $ 673,288 , respectively, subject to limitations under the ABL Credit Agreement and the agreements governing the New Secured Debt.

Securitized Receivables The Company sells trade receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under four accounts receivable securitization facilities, two of which are subject to annual renewal. Under the first facility, the Company continuously sells a designated pool of trade receivables to a special purpose entity, which sells 100 % of the receivables to an unaffiliated financial institution. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the special purpose entity, the receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and effective control of the receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which has all rights, including the right to pledge or sell the receivables. The first facility requires a minimum level of deferred purchase price be retained by the Company in connection with the sales of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution. The Company continues to service, administer, and collect the receivables on behalf of the special purpose entity and receives a servicing fee of 0.5 % of serviced receivables per annum. As the Company estimates the expected fee it receives in return for its obligation to service these receivables is at fair value, no servicing assets or liabilities are recognized. Servicing fees are recorded as a reduction of selling, general, and administrative expenses within the statements of consolidated operations. As of March 31, 2023, the investment limit of this facility was $ 100,000 of trade receivables. Under the second facility, the Company offers trade receivables for sale to an unaffiliated financial institution, which are then subject to acceptance by the unaffiliated financial institution. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution, the receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and effective control of the receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which has all rights, including the right to pledge or sell the receivables. Although the Company continues to service, administer, and collect the receivables on behalf of the unaffiliated financial institution, the Company does not receive a servicing fee, and as a result, has established a servicing liability based upon unobservable inputs, primarily discounted cash flow. As of March 31, 2023, the investment limit under the second facility was $ 110,000 of trade receivables. As servicer for the first and second facilities, the Company may receive funds that are due to the unaffiliated financial institutions which are net settled on the next settlement date. As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, trade receivables, net in the consolidated balance sheets has been reduced by $ 3,193 and $ 1,872 as a result of the net settlement, respectively. Refer to " Note 20. Fair Value Measurements " for additional information. Under the third and fourth facilities, the Company offers trade receivables for sale to unaffiliated financial institutions, which are then subject to acceptance by the unaffiliated financial institutions. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution, the receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and effective control of the receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which has all rights, including the right to pledge or sell the receivables. As of March 31, 2023, the investment limits under the third and fourth facilities were variable based on qualifying sales. The following summarizes the Company's accounts receivable outstanding in the securitization facilities, which represents trade receivables sold into the program that have not been collected from the customer, and related beneficial interests, which represents the Company's residual interest in receivables sold that have not been collected from the customer: March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 Receivables outstanding in facility $ 173,979 $ 131,092 Beneficial interest 19,522 28,072 Cash proceeds from the sale of trade receivables is comprised of a combination of cash and a deferred purchase price receivable.

Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level valuation hierarchy, which is comprised of observable and non-observable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's market assumptions. These three levels of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: • Level 1 inputs - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 inputs - Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and observable inputs (other than quoted prices) for the assets or liabilities. • Level 3 inputs - Unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities. The following summarizes assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis: March 31, 2023 March 31, 2022 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets / Liabilities at Fair Value Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets / Liabilities at Fair Value Financial assets Derivative financial instruments $ 3,970 $ — $ 3,970 $ 9,867 $ — $ 9,867 Securitized beneficial interests — 19,522 19,522 — 28,072 28,072 Total assets $ 3,970 $ 19,522 $ 23,492 $ 9,867 $ 28,072 $ 37,939 Financial liabilities Long-term debt (1) $ 523,758 $ 514 $ 524,272 $ 447,843 $ 246 $ 448,089 Guarantees — 5,262 5,262 — 2,956 2,956 Total liabilities $ 523,758 $ 5,776 $ 529,534 $ 447,843 $ 3,202 $ 451,045 (1) This fair value measurement disclosure does not affect the consolidated balance sheets. 65 Level 2 measurements • Debt: The fair value of debt is based on the market price for similar financial instruments or model-derived valuations with observable inputs. The primary inputs to the valuation include market expectations, the Company's credit risk, and the contractual terms of the debt instrument. • Derivatives: The fair value of derivatives is based on the discounted cash flow analysis of the expected future cash flows. The primary inputs to the valuation include forward yield curves, implied volatilities, LIBOR rates, and credit valuation adjustments. Level 3 measurements • Guarantees: The fair value of guarantees is based on the discounted cash flow analysis of the expected future cash flows or historical loss rates. The historical loss rate was weighted by the principal balance of the loans. • Securitized beneficial interests: The fair value of securitized beneficial interests is based on the present value of future expected cash flows. The discount rate was weighted by the outstanding interest. Payment speed was weighted by the avera ge days outstanding. • Debt: The fair value of debt is based on the present value of future payments. The primary inputs to this valuation include treasury notes interest and borrowing rates . The borrowing rates were weighted by average loans outstanding. Reconciliation of Change in Recurring Level 3 Balances The following summarizes the changes in Level 3 instruments measured on a recurring basis. Securitized Beneficial Interests Long-Term Debt Guarantees Beginning balance at March 31, 2021 $ 19,370 $ 3,162 $ 1,740 Sales of receivables/issuance of guarantees 205,517 — 3,151 Settlements ( 192,141 ) ( 2,918 ) ( 1,749 ) Additions — 2 — Losses recognized in earnings ( 4,674 ) — ( 186 ) Ending balance at March 31, 2022 $ 28,072 $ 246 $ 2,956 Sales of receivables/issuance of guarantees 166,165 6,187 Settlements ( 164,679 ) ( 37 ) ( 1,864 ) Additions — 305 — Losses recognized in earnings ( 10,036 ) — ( 2,017 ) Ending balance at March 31, 2023 $ 19,522 $ 514 $ 5,262 The amount of total losses included in earnings for the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are attributable to the change in unrealized losses relating to assets still held at the respective dates was $ 659 and $ 1,148 on securitized beneficial interests.

Contingencies and Other Information Brazilian Tax Credits The government in the Brazilian State of Parana ("Parana") issued a tax assessment on October 26, 2007 with respect to local intrastate trade tax credits that result primarily from tobacco transferred between states within Brazil. At March 31, 2023, the assessment for intrastate trade tax credits taken is $ 2,599 and the total assessment including penalties and interest is $ 10,104 . On March 18, 2014, the government in Brazilian State of Santa Catarina also issued a tax assessment with respect to local intrastate trade tax credits that result primarily from tobacco transferred between states within Brazil. At March 31, 2023, the assessment for intrastate trade tax credits taken is $ 2,243 and the total assessment including penalties and interest is $ 6,457 . The Company believes it has properly complied with Brazilian law and will contest any assessment through the judicial process. Should the Company lose in the judicial process, the loss of the intrastate trade tax credits would have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company. The Company also has local intrastate trade tax credits in the Brazil State of Rio Grande do Sul. This jurisdiction permits the sale or transfer of excess credits to third parties, however approval must be obtained from the tax authorities. The Company has an agreement with the state government regarding the amounts and timing of credits that can be sold. The tax credits have a carrying value of $ 17,210 . The intrastate trade tax credits are monitored for impairment in future periods based on market conditions and the Company’s ability to use or sell the tax credits. Other Matters In addition to the above-mentioned matters, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are involved in other litigation or legal matters incidental to their business activities, including tax matters. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted 72 with certainty, they are being vigorously defended and the Company does not currently expect that any of them will have a material adverse effect on its business or financial position. However, should one or more of these matters be resolved in a manner adverse to its current expectation, the effect on the Company’s results of operations for a particular fiscal reporting period could be material. 23.

Stock–Based Compensation On November 18, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Pyxus International, Inc. 2020 Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan"), which was approved at the 2021 annual meeting of shareholders on August 19, 2021. The Incentive Plan permits the grant of options, stock appreciation rights (or SARs), stock awards, stock unit awards, performance share awards, and incentive awards. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock eligible to be issued under the Incentive Plan is 2,200 shares. The awards outstanding at March 31, 2023 under the Incentive Plan are restricted stock units for an aggregate of 706 shares that become eligible for vesting, subject to continued employment in equal annual increments generally on March 31 of each year, performance-based restricted stock units for an aggregate of 1,064 shares at the target performance level and stock units awarded to non-employee directors for an aggregate of 117 shares. The performance-based restricted stock units provide for the issuance of shares based of satisfaction of performance criteria over a three-year measurement period ending March 31, 2024, subject to continued employment, with payouts at 50 % of the target level upon satisfaction of threshold performance levels, 100 % of the target level upon satisfaction of target performance levels and 150 % of the target level upon performance equaling or exceeding the maximum performance levels, with payouts interpolated for performance between these levels. Each of such time-vesting and performance-based restricted stock units is subject to an additional condition to vesting that the Company’s common stock be listed for trading on a national securities exchange or an approved foreign securities exchange by a specified date. As of March 31, 2023, the vesting requirements for these awards were not probable to occur. As a result, no stock-based compensation expense was recognized in the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. 73 25.

Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pyxus International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (loss) income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended March 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Income Taxes — Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — Refer to Note 1 and Note 6 to the financial statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company’s annual tax rate is based on its pre-tax income by jurisdiction, statutory tax rates, and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and respective governmental taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required in determining tax expense and in evaluating tax positions, including evaluating uncertainties. The Company records unrecognized tax benefits in multiple jurisdictions and evaluates the future potential outcomes of tax positions, based upon interpretation of the country-specific tax law and the likelihood of future settlement. As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s recorded unrecognized tax benefits totaled $19.3 million. Conclusions on recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions involved significant management estimates and judgment and included complex considerations of local tax laws and related regulations in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. We identified uncertain tax positions as a critical accounting matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions involved in recording uncertain tax positions. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our tax specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates. 77 How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures related to management’s estimates and assumptions utilized in the Company’s determination of uncertain tax positions included the following, among others: • With the assistance of our income tax specialists, we read and evaluated management’s documentation, including relevant accounting policies, relevant authoritative tax literature, and information obtained by management from outside tax specialists and attorneys, that detailed the basis of the uncertain tax positions. • With the assistance of our income tax specialists, we evaluated management’s judgement of the appropriate unit of account for the unrecognized tax benefits and audited the measurement calculations and the interest and penalties balances, as applicable. • We challenged the reasonableness of management’s judgments regarding the future resolution of the uncertain tax positions, through evaluating the technical merits of the uncertain tax positions by considering how tax law, including statutes, regulations, and case law, impacted management’s judgments and through consideration of the Company’s history of settlements. For those uncertain tax positions that had not been effectively settled, we evaluated whether management had appropriately considered new information that could significantly change the recognition, measurement, or disclosure of the uncertain tax positions through review of correspondence with taxing authorities and evaluation of changes to issued guidance. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP Raleigh, North Carolina June 6, 2023 We have served as the Company’s auditor since its fiscal 2006. 78 Item 9.
