EDEN EMPIRE INC. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Eden Empire Inc. (formerly Rosehearty Energy Inc.) (“Eden Empire” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Province of Ontario on September 1, 2000, under the name Phoenix Matachewan Mines Inc. Effective December 30, 2008, the Company changed its name to Galahad Metals Inc., effective July 31, 2014, changed its name to Rosehearty Energy Inc. and effective May 14, 2020, changed its name to Eden Empire Inc. and continued into the Province of British Columbia. The records office of the Company is located at 408 – 150 24th Street, West Vancouver, British Columbia, V7V 4G8. The Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol “EDEN”.

The Company is in the business of investments and operations in the cannabis sector and engaging in retail and activities in respect of cannabis in Canada and the United States. It is the intention that the Company becomes a fully integrated cannabis product retailer company in Canada and the United States. The Company has registered certain trademark brands and has entered into an agreement to acquire dispensary locations currently under licensing process (Note 6). The Company has commenced retail operations at its location in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) on a going concern basis, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

The Company reported a loss of $859,550 for the three months ended October 31, 2021, and had an accumulated deficit of $10,857,560 and non-controlling equity interest of $152,773 as at October 31, 2021. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise funds primarily through the issuance of shares or achieve profitable operations. The achievement of profitable operations is dependent on successful licensing of its storefront operations. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing, management may be required to curtail certain expenses. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. The pandemic has not had a drastic impact on the Company’s operations. Management continues to monitor the situation.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

The accounting policies and methods of computation applied by the Company in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2021.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont’d…)

Basis of consolidation and presentation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments measured at fair value. In addition, these consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries as follows:

Subsidiary Date of Incorporation Location Ownership
Eden Empire Inc. (formerly Rosehearty) September 1, 2000 Canada -
1194360 B.C. Ltd. January 17, 2019 Canada 100%
1268495 B.C. Ltd. October 2, 2020 Canada 50%
Eden Empire Ontario One Ltd. April 28, 2020 Canada 100%
Eden Empire Manitoba One Ltd. June 3, 2020 Canada 100%
King Edward & Cambie Operations Ltd. January 9, 2019 Canada 100%
Peaceful Park Inc. August 12, 2018 Canada 100%
Actium Botanicals, Incorporated May 15, 2018 United States 100%
Eden Empire US, Inc. August 7, 2019 United States 100%
Eden Empire Michigan, LLC August 7, 2019 United States 100%
Eden EmpireBattle Creek RE,LLC August7,2019 United States 100%

All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its current ability to direct the entity’s relevant activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

Use of judgments and estimates

The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the actual results. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

The key areas of judgment applied in the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are as follows:

  • Going concern

The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to raise sufficient funds to pay its ongoing operation expenditures and to meet its liabilities for the ensuing year, involves significant judgment based on historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

  • Deferred income tax

The value of deferred tax assets is evaluated based on the probability of realization; the Company has assessed that it is improbable that such assets will be realized and has accordingly not recognized a value for deferred taxes.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont’d…)

Use of judgments and estimates (cont’d…)

  • Right-of-use assets and lease liability

The Company applies judgement in determining whether the contract contains an identified asset, whether they have the right to control the asset, and the lease term. The lease term is based on considering facts and circumstances, both qualitative and quantitative, that can create an economic incentive to exercise renewal options. Management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option.

  • Business combinations

Judgment is used in determining whether an acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition.

  • Held for sale

The Company used judgement in estimating the classification of assets or a disposal group as assets held for distribution to owners when management is committed to immediately distributing the asset or disposal group in its present condition, and this distribution is highly probable and expected to be completed within one year.

The key areas of estimates applied in the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are as follows:

  • Intangible assets – impairment

The application of the Company’s accounting policy for intangible assets requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. The calculations for impairment testing of the Company’s indefinite life intangible assets involve significant estimates and assumptions. Items estimated include cash flows, discount rates and assumptions on revenue growth rates. These estimates could affect the Company’s future results if the current estimates of future performance and fair values change. Judgment is also exercised to determine whether an indication of impairment is present that would require the completion of an impairment test in addition to the annual testing.

 Right-of-use assets and lease liability

The Company uses estimation in determining the incremental borrowing rate used to measure the lease liability, specific to the asset, underlying currency, and geographic location. Where the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the discount rate of the lease obligations is estimated using a discount rate similar to the Company’s specific borrowing rate. This rate represents the rate that the Company would incur to obtain the funds necessary to purchase the asset of a similar value, with similar payment terms and security in a similar environment.

  • Share-based payments and compensation

The Company applies estimates with respect to the valuation of shares issued for non-cash consideration. Shares are valued at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the date the Company receives the goods or services for share-based payments made to those other than employees or others providing similar services. As a private entity, the Company relies on concurrent or recent financings to provide guidance with respect to prevailing share prices.

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted for share-based payments made to employees or others providing similar services. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the fair value of the underlying common shares, the expected life of the share option or warrant, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them.

During the period ended October 31, 2021, the Company recognized $64,787 (2020 - $Nil) of cash costs expensed to costs of sales.

5. ACQUISITION OF B.C. DISPENSARIES

On May 16, 2019, as amended March 13, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of seven private companies, each holding a retail lease for a dispensary location, from 1175579 B.C. Ltd. (“1175579 B.C.”), a private company. Each one of the seven private companies is identified as a “Retail Subsidiary”.

Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will acquire the Retail Subsidiaries from 1175579 B.C. upon the issuance of a license to operate a private non-medical cannabis retail store under the Cannabis Control and Licensing Act (“License”). Each Retail Subsidiary will be acquired for $65,000 payable in the form of cash or common shares at a price of $0.30, escalating to $0.90 over 6 months following a Retail Subsidiary acquisition (at a rate of $0.10 per month), per share at the option of 1175579 B.C. and an amount not exceeding $15,000 for expenses in connection with certain allowable expenses incurred by 1175579 B.C. in connection with the Retail Subsidiary. Four of the seven Retail Subsidiaries are subject to a cash payment of $350,000 on acquisition. Should a Retail Subsidiary not be successful in obtaining a License, the Company will not be required to purchase that entity.

Additionally, on execution of the agreement, the Company extended a bridge loan to 1175579 B.C. for the general working capital purposes to pursue Licenses and maintain operations of the Retail Subsidiaries (“Bridge Loan”). The Bridge Loan had a facility of up to $1,100,000, which is advanced and was subject to an interest rate of 8%. On February 11, 2021, the Company acquired and concurrently disposed of substantially all assets of the first Retail Subsidiary and upon closing, the principal and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Bridge Loan of $763,352 was forgiven pursuant to the terms of the underlying agreement with 1175579 B.C.

On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into agreement with 1175579 B.C. which permitted a Retail Subsidiary to dispose of substantially all of its assets to an unrelated third party for gross proceeds of $750,000. As described above, the Company completed this transaction with respect to the first Retail Subsidiary on February 11, 2021, and partial proceeds of $575,000 were received during the year ended July 31, 2021, with the balance remaining of $175,000 being received during the three months ended October 31, 2021. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company also reimbursed 1175579 B.C. for the associated legal fees, paid $65,000 to 1175579 B.C., and accrued an amount payable of $350,000 which 1175579 B.C. would otherwise have been entitled to under a Retail Subsidiary purchase within 14 months as the balance of funds are paid to the Company. The accumulated balance under the Bridge Loan for this Retail Subsidiary of $213,873 was forgiven and reflected as a reduction of the gain on the sale of the retail subsidiary and the Company has recorded a net gain on sale of this retail subsidiary of $121,127. In connection with this transaction, the Company has recorded an amount payable to 1175579 B.C. of $350,000 included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities as at October 31, 2021 (July 31, 2021 - $350,000).

6. OPTION AGREEMENT

Option Agreement for the Acquisition of Actium Botanicals

On October 7, 2019, the Company entered into an option agreement (the “Michigan Option”) to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Actium Botanicals, Incorporated (“Actium”). Actium is in the process of applying for facility licenses at two locations: its Battle Creek facility and its Stronach facility in Michigan, USA. Pursuant to the Actium Option, the seller agrees to use reasonable best efforts for Actium to obtain the required licenses, consents, and approvals to initiate the operations of the facilities.

The Company paid a non-refundable deposit of USD$25,000 with respect to the Michigan Option, which may be applied against future payments due under the option. On September 20, 2021, the Michigan Option was exercised. For accounting purposes, the acquisition is considered to be outside the scope of IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) since Actium, prior to acquisition, did not constitute a business. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized $26,015 in prospective location costs in profit and loss for the three months ended October 31, 2021.

Pursuant to the Michigan Option, the Company is also required to make payments in an amount equal to 4% of the amount of all gross receipts received by Actium at the Battle Creek and Stronach facilities, due within 45 days after each calendar quarter. The Company may terminate its obligation to make payments on gross receipts by making a one-time payment of US$5,000,000.

The Michigan Option provides that, concurrently with its execution, the Company and Actium enter into a service agreement and a lease for the real estate owned by the Company and an affiliate of the vendor, on which the Stronach Facility is situated. Pursuant to the service agreement, the Company will provide certain services to support Actium’s operation of the Battle Creek and Stronach facilities.

7. LEASE INDUCEMENTS

King Edward & Cambie Operations Ltd.

On August 21, 2019, entered into a lease agreement for a retail space through its wholly-owned subsidiary King Edward & Cambie Operations Ltd. (“Cambie”). The lease is for a period of 5 years, subject to extension. The Company will pay a monthly rent charge of $20,000 for the initial 5 years. Additionally, the Company must pay 3% of the gross sales of all goods or products legally sold from the leased premises up to $5,000,000 annually. The Company must also pay $110,000 in four non-refundable payments upon satisfaction of the following conditions:

  • a) $20,000 upon acceptance of the lease offer (paid);

At July 31, 2021, the Company reclassified property and equipment with a cost of $2,153,151 and accumulated depreciation of $623,133 to assets to held for sale. The Company recognized additional deprecation of $119,536 with respect to held for sale assets in the period ended October 31, 2021. The assets consisted primarily of a right-of-use asset as well as leasehold improvements pertaining to the right-of-use asset. Management estimates that the fair value of these assets less costs to sell exceeds the carrying value and therefore the assets are measured at their carrying values.

During the three months ended October 31, 2021, the Company disposed of leasehold improvements for proceeds of $1,010 and recorded a gain on disposal of asset of $195.

During the year ended July 31, 2021, the leasehold improvements and office equipment were written off due to a fire at the Cambie premises, resulting in a loss on disposal of assets of $114,332. In addition, the Company disposed of office equipment for proceeds of $2,680 and recorded a gain on disposal of asset of $780.

16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and loan payable are carried at amortized cost. The Company considers that the carrying amount of these financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost to approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of the financial instruments.

  • 17 -

EDEN EMPIRE INC. NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2021 AND 2020

16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d…)

Financial instruments (cont’d…)

Fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values. Although the Company believes its estimates of fair value are appropriate, the use of different methodologies or assumptions could lead to different measurements of fair value.

Financial risk factors

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its liquid financial assets, including cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company limits exposure to credit risk on liquid financial assets through maintaining its cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. The Company considers the risk of financial loss on cash and cash equivalents to be remote. The Company’s receivables consist materially of GST input tax credits recoverable from the government of Canada. The Company considers credit risk with respect to these amounts to be low.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at October 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,584,544. The Company’s financial liabilities mature within 30 days, with the exception of the lease liabilities, which are payable over several years (Note 11), and the Notes, which are due in February 2022 (Note 12).

Market risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity and equity prices. The Company does not have a practice of trading derivatives.

a) Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk through its of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by its banking institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its banks. Management believes the interest rate risk is low given the current low global interest rate environment.

The interest rate applied to the Company’s loan payable is fixed and reduces interest rate liability risk.

b) Foreign currency risk

The Company holds an investment property (Note 8) and an option agreement (Note 6) in the United States (“US”). The investment in the US could increase the Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk in the future.

As at October 31, 2021, the Company’s net foreign denominated financial assets and liabilities are as follows:

US Dollars

Accounts payable
Net liabilities (US Dollars)

b) Foreign currency risk (cont’d…)

Based on the balances held as at October 31, 2021, a 10% increase (decrease) in the Canadian dollar to US dollar exchange rate on this date would have resulted in a decrease (increase) in the net loss for the period of approximately $23,570.

17. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company’s capital management policy is to maintain a strong but flexible capital structure that optimizes the cost of capital, creditor and market confidence while sustaining the future development of the business.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions. The Company’s capital structure includes shareholders’ equity. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may from time-to-time issue shares, seek debt financing and adjust its capital spending to manage current and working capital requirements. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In addition, the Company also reimbursed 1175579 B.C. for costs incurred in connection with the two Retail Subsidiaries totaling $195,000, which were settled in common shares of the Company at a price of $0.054 per share.
