Management’s Discussion & Analysis
For the year ended August 31, 2025

1.1 Introduction

Corporate structure and background

The following management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A"), prepared as of December 24, 2025, is a review of operations, current financial position and outlook for AI Artificial Intelligence Ventures Inc. (the "Company"). Additional information relevant to the Company's activities can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2025. Those consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS"). Amounts are reported in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise specified.

The Company was incorporated on February 10, 2010, pursuant to the Canada Business Corporation Act and on February 17, 2017, the Company was continued into British Columbia under the British Columbia Business Corporation Act. The Company completed its initial public offering on December 7, 2010. On July 22, 2023 the Company changed its name to "AI Artificial Intelligence Ventures Inc.", and is listed on the TSX-V as a Tier 2 Investment Issuer under the symbol "AIVC". The Company's stated business goal is to build a portfolio of investments, with a view to participating in income and capital growth from the ultimate sale or other disposal of those investments.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in the following MD&A constitute forward-looking statements. When used in this document, the words "may", "would", "could", "will", "intend", "plan", "propose", "anticipate", "believe", used by any of the Company's management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Company does not intend and does not assume any obligation, to update any such factors or to publicly announce the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future results, events or developments, except as required by law.

Risks and Uncertainties

Liquidity Risk

Due to market conditions beyond its control, including investor demand, resale restrictions, general market trends and regulatory restrictions, the Company may not be able to liquidate investments without a listed market for their securities, when it would otherwise desire to do so in order to operate in accordance with its investment policy and strategy. Such lack of liquidity could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Company's investments and, consequently, the value of the shares of the Company.

Diversification Risk

The aggregate returns realized by the Company may be substantially and adversely affected by the unfavourable performance of even a single investment. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to reduce its investment risk by diversifying its portfolio. The resulting lack of diversification may adversely impact the ability of the Company to achieve its desired investment returns.


2

Capital Risk

If the Company is unable to raise additional investment capital either through investment returns or new financing through securities offerings, then it will be limited in its ability to fulfill its investment objectives. This may adversely affect its long-term viability. To raise additional capital, the Company may have to issue additional shares which may dilute the interests of existing shareholders

Volatility Risk

In recent years, the securities markets in Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many junior companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price. The market price of the Shares may be volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations due to a number of factors. Broad market fluctuations, as well as economic conditions generally and in the technology industry specifically, may adversely affect the market price of the common shares.

Additional Risk Factors

As described in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements, although the Company's active investments are comprised mostly of publicly traded shares, there is no guarantee that the market would be able to absorb sale of the number of shares held by the Company without a drop in the share price, should the Company attempt to realize its investments within a very short timeframe. The reported fair value does not necessarily reflect the value that would be obtained should the Company sell its investments in an arm's-length transaction.

1.2 Overall Performance

The Company was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on February 10, 2010. On December 7, 2010, the common shares of the Company began trading on the TSX-V under the ticker symbol "EXC.P". On July 15, 2011, the Company completed its Qualifying Transaction and is now listed on the TSX-V as a Tier 2 Investment Issuer. Pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction, the Company entered into agreements to acquire debt and equity securities of various companies. On February 14, 2017 the Company was continued into British Columbia under the British Columbia Corporations Act. On April 22, 2020 the company changed its name to "AI Artificial Intelligence Ventures Inc." and is listed on the TSX-V under the symbol "AIVC".

During the year ended August 31, 2025, the Company continues to make strategic investments on behalf of the shareholders of the Company.

  • The Company incurred professional fees of $65,675 (2024 - $39,007) as there were greater audit fees incurred as costs associated with carrying out audit engagements have gotten more complex from a regulatory perspective.

During the year ended August 31, 2025, the Company recorded a net gain of $1,735,344 compared to net loss of $1,205,738 during the year ended August 31, 2024.
