Cansortium Inc. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 (Amounts expressed in thousands of United States Dollars unless otherwise stated)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Cansortium Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada pursuant to the Ontario Business Corporations Act. (“OBCA”) on August 31, 2018. The Company’s registered office is located at 295 The West Mall, Suite 600, Toronto, Ontario, M9C 4Z4 and its head office is located at 82 North East 26th Street, Suite 110, Miami, Florida, United States, 33137.

On March 22, 2019, the Company acquired all shares of Cansortium Holdings LLC, (“Cansortium Holdings”), in connection with the Company's initial public offering (“IPO”) and listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange. The Company’s shares are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") under the trading symbol “TIUM.U” and on the OTCQB Venture Market under the trading symbol “CNTMF”.

The Company, through its subsidiaries, is licensed to produce and sell medical cannabis in Florida and Texas and is licensed to sell medical cannabis in Pennsylvania.

The Company’s medical cannabis products are offered in oral drops, capsules, suppositories, topicals, syringes, dried flower, pre-rolls and cartridges. All of its products are marketed under the Fluent™ brand name, which was launched in May 2019. Prior to the launch of the Fluent brand the Company had operated under the Knox Medical™ brand. In Pennsylvania, the Company’s product portfolio includes a variety of thirdparty branded medical cannabis products.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company discontinued its operations in Puerto Rico, Canada and Colombia and, as a result, classified the assets and liabilities associated with these operations as held for sale, measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, and has disclosed such assets separately in the statement of financial position. Discontinued operations are excluded from the results of continuing operations and are presented as a single amount in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company completed the sale of its Puerto Rican business on April 28, 2020 and completed the sale of its Canadian business on May 29, 2020. Additionally, on January 22, 2020, the Company reduced its ownership of Cansortium Colombia to 50% (see Notes 7 and 15) and classified its Cansortium Colombia investment held for sale separately in the statement of financial position as of June 30, 2020.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Cansortium Brazil Ltda. (“Cansortium Brazil”), obtained a permit for a Pharmaceutical Industry and Distribution License in Brazil, issued by the National Health Surveillance Agency (“ANVISA”), and has an exclusive distribution agreement with a pharmacy supply company in Brazil, Distribuidora de Medicamentos Santa Cruz Ltda.

The Company, through its subsidiary Cansortium Australia Pty. Ltd, (“Cansortium Australia”) obtained a cultivation and manufacturing license from the Office of Drug Control in Australia on February 5, 2020 and submitted an application to the New South Wales Biosecurity License to be able to grow industrial hemp and process seeds.

All of the Company’s operations are in one segment, the production and sale of medical cannabis. All revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were generated in the United States.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they become due for the foreseeable future.

Cansortium Inc. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 (Amounts expressed in thousands of United States Dollars unless otherwise stated)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

The Company has recorded a net loss of $19,379 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and, as of that date, had an accumulated deficit in the amount of $130,717. These events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

To date, the Company has been successful in obtaining enough funding for operating and capital requirements primarily through equity and debt financings. Further, the Company recorded a positive cash flows from operations of $2,329 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations and renegotiate existing financings. While the Company has been effective in raising financing in the past, there is no assurance that it will be able to successfully obtain additional financing as needed. These financial statements do not reflect any adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of expenses and classifications on the statement of financial position that would be necessary if the going concern assumption was not appropriate.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Preparation

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, following the same accounting policies and methods of application as those disclosed in the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, including the accompanying notes thereto.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors of the Company on August 26, 2020.

(b) Basis of Measurement

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, under the historical cost convention except for certain financial debt instruments and biological assets that are measured at fair value.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(c) Functional and Presentation of Foreign Currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of United States (“U.S.”) dollars unless otherwise stated. The functional currency of the Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of the Brazilian subsidiary is the Brazilian Reais. The functional currency of the Australian subsidiary is the Australian dollar. The functional currency of the Colombian subsidiary is the Colombian peso.

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at period end exchange rates. Income and expenses, and cash flows of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using average exchange rates. Exchange differences resulting from the translation of foreign operations are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity.

(d) Basis of Consolidation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Subsidiaries over which the Company has control are fully consolidated from the date control commences until the date control ceases. Control exists when 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 power over the entity. In assessing control, potential voting rights that are currently exercisable are considered. Non-controlling interests in the equity of consolidated subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated statement of operations and in the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders’ equity. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation. The information below lists the Company’s subsidiaries that are included in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the ownership interest held as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

(e) Critical Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(e) Critical Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions (C ontinued)

Critical judgments, estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized on these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been set out in Note 2 of the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

(f) COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company’s business could be materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of a widespread epidemic of pandemic or other public health crisis, including the COVID-19 pandemic.

Beginning in February 2020, various U.S. States began to implement progressively restrictive guidelines on social interactions and business operations in an effort to slow the spread of the global COVID-19 pandemic, including the closure of non-essential business. Such restrictive guidelines did not materially impact the Company’s operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as medical cannabis was deemed one of several essential businesses and all the Company’s dispensaries, cultivation and production facilities remained open.

Due to the rapid developments and uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, it is difficult to reliably measure the potential impact of this uncertainty on the Company’s future financial position and operating results.

3. INVENTORY

As of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, inventories consisted of the following:

June 30, December 31, December 31,

4. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

The Company’s biological assets consist of cannabis plants. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of biological assets for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and year ended December 31, 2019 is as follows:

as follows:
June 30, December 31,
2020 2019
Balance at beginning of period $ 3,845
$ 2,549
Cost incurred until harvest 4,114 5,791
Effect of unrealized change in fair value of biological assets 19,682 9,735
Transferred to inventoryupon harvest (21,895) (14,230)
Balance at end ofperiod $ 5,747 $ 3,845

As of June 30, 2020, all biological assets were live plants.

The Company measures its biological assets at their fair value less costs to sell. This is determined using a model which estimates the expected harvest yield in grams for plants currently being cultivated, and then adjusts that amount for the expected selling price less costs to sell per gram.

The fair value measurements for biological assets have been categorized as Level 3 in the IFRS 13 fair values hierarchy as there is no actively traded commodity market for plants or dried product. The significant unobservable inputs used to assess the fair value of biological assets during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019 include the following assumptions:

  • (a) Expected yields of the average grams of dried flower and trim per plant of 21 grams for both periods.

  • (b) Expected 84 growing days for both periods.

  • (c) Weighted average number of growing days completed as percentage of total growing days at the period end of 43% and 44%, respectively.

  • (d) Expected weighted average selling price in the retail market of $12.63 and $12.86 per gram, respectively.

  • (e) Estimated weighted average costs to complete and sell of $7.16 for both periods.

  • (f) Expected loss of plants until harvest of 24% and 27%, respectively.

These estimates are subject to volatility in market prices and a number of uncontrollable factors, which could significantly affect the fair value of biological assets which will affect the amount reflected in the gain or loss on biological assets in future periods.

The Company’s method of accounting for biological assets attributes value accretion on a straight-line basis throughout the life of the biological asset from initial cloning to the point of harvest.

The Company has quantified the sensitivity of the unobservable inputs in relation to the biological assets for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019 and determined the following:

  • (a) A 10% increase or decrease on the expected yield of dry flower and trim per plant would increase or decrease the fair value of biological assets by $548 and $382, respectively.

  • (b) A 10% increase or decrease on the weighted average of growing days completed as a percentage of total estimated growing days would increase or decrease the fair value of biological assets by $548 and $382, respectively.

4. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS (Continued)

  • (c) A 10% increase or decrease in the expected selling price per gram of dried flower or trim would increase or decrease the fair value of biological assets by $619 and $862, respectively.

  • (d) A 10% increase or decrease in the expected costs to complete and sell per gram would increase or decrease the fair value of biological assets by $229 and $480, respectively.

  • (e) A 10% increase or decrease on the expected loss of plants until harvest would increase or decrease the fair value of biological assets by $90 and $136, respectively.

The Company estimates the harvest yields for cannabis at various stages of growth. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, it is expected that the Company’s biological assets will yield approximately 1,792,611 and 1,510,148 grams of dry cannabis when harvested, respectively.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31 2019, the Company had 112,108 and 98,094 plants that were classified as biological assets, respectively.

5. NOTE RECEIVABLE

In connection with the Company’s agreement entered in October 2018 with Green Standard Holdings LLC, Green Standard Cultivation LLC and Green Standard, Inc. (collectively, “Green Standard”) to acquire the assets of Green Standard (see Notes 10 and 15), the Company entered into a line of credit note with Green Standard, Inc. (“Green Standard Note”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to make advances to Green Standard in connection with the Michigan cultivation and operational expenses in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any one time outstanding balance of $14,700.

The Green Standard Note bears interest of 2.7% per annum and Green Standard shall pay the entire principal amount and all unpaid accrued interest to the Company not later than the earlier than 3 years of the Green Standard Note issuance date or earlier, based on certain triggering events.

On May 19, 2020, the Company amended the terms of the Green Standard note to reduce the principal amount available not to exceed at any one time outstanding balances of $7,500 and to increase the interest rate to 5% per annum.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of note receivable for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019 is as follows:

If during that time period, the holder of the Equity Price Guarantee elects to sell some or all of its shares and the purchase price is less than $2.75 per share, then the Company shall have the obligation to pay the holder the difference between $2.75 and the actual sale price of shares in cash or additional shares at the election of the Company. The Equity Price Guarantee shall be cancelled if the value of the shares of the Company close at $4.13 per share for more than twenty consecutive trading days while maintaining a trading volume of at least three million shares each trading day of such period.

12. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY (Continued)

  • (a) Equity Price Guarantees (Continued)

Fluent Servicing Acquisition (Continued)

Price Guarantees are recorded as a liability measured at fair value on the consolidated statement of financial position. In determining the fair value of the price guaranty, these liabilities are marked–to–market each quarter with the change in fair value recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

On January 16, 2020, the Company completed the restructuring of its existing promissory note issued in connection with the acquisition of Fluent Servicing (see Note 13), as well as the terms pertaining to the Equity Price Guarantee, reducing the price floor from $2.75 to $0.65 per share for the 4,400,000 common shares originally issued and agreeing to transfer to the seller an additional 14,215,385 common shares (or equivalent proportionate voting shares) that were previously returned by the Company’s founders, subject to a price floor of $0.65 per share.

The new Equity Price Guarantee expires on May 31, 2023. If during that time period, the holder of the Equity Price Guarantee elects to sell some or all of its shares and the purchase price is less than $0.65 per share, then the Company shall have the first right to purchase all or any portion of the contemplated common shares to be sold for $0.65 per common share. Alternatively, the Company may elect to pay the holder the difference between $0.65 and the actual sale price of shares in cash or additional shares at the election of the Company. The Equity Price Guarantee shall be cancelled if the value of the shares of the Company close at $4.13 per share for more than twenty consecutive trading days while maintaining a trading volume of at least three million shares each trading day of such period.

The Company used a Monte-Carlo simulation model to estimate fair value of the Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability. This is a Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. The key Level 3 inputs used by management to determine the fair value are the expected future volatility in the price of the Company’s shares and the expected life of the Equity Price Guarantee and recorded the fair value of the derivative liability of $5,129 in the consolidated statement of operations at the original issuance date and a subsequent fair value of $8,782 on January 16, 2020, date of the Equity Price Guarantee terms amendment. The Company believes that a 1 % difference in the inputs used for this fair value measurement would not cause a material difference to the fair value amount.

The following range of assumptions were used to value the Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability during the periods ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020, January 16, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Fluent Servicing Acquisition (Continued)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a (gain) loss of ($640) and $850 on revaluation of the Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded a loss of $145 and $2,078 on revaluation of the Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability, respectively.

Green Standard

In connection with the agreement to buy the shares of Green Standard performed on October 5, 2018 (see Note 15) and amended on January 1, 2019, the Company issued 2,727,273 of shares of Cansortium Inc. valued at $2.75 dollars per unit and subject to a price floor of $2.75 (“GSI Equity Price Guarantee”).

The GSI Equity Price Guarantee shall expire on December 31, 2020. As at the maturity date, if the total valuation of the Consortium Inc. shares issued is less than $10.0 million, the Company shall pay additional consideration in an amount equal to the $10.0 million minus the Company’s share valuation as of the maturity date. If the Company’s share valuation as of the maturity date is at least $10.0 million, there shall be no additional consideration paid. If during that time period, the holder of the GSI Equity Price Guarantee elects to sell, redeem, transfer, or otherwise dispose of twenty percent (20%) or more, of the stock they hold, any rights they hold to receive the additional compensation shall expire.

The Company used a Monte-Carlo simulation model to estimate fair value of the Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability. This is a Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. The key Level 3 inputs used by management to determine the fair value are the expected future volatility in the price of the Company’s shares and the expected life of the GSI Equity Price Guarantee and recorded the fair value of the derivative liability of $2,597 in the consolidated statement of operations at issuance date. The Company believes that a 1 % difference in the inputs used for this fair value measurement would not cause a material difference to the fair value amount.

The following range of assumptions were used to value the Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability during the periods ended June 30, 2020, March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019:

June 30, March 31, December 31,

12. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY (Continued)

(b) Bridge Loan Agreement

On February 8, 2019, the Company completed a brokered private placement financing by issuing convertible notes payable (the “Bridge Loan Agreement”) in the amount of $1,830 bearing interest of 3% per month (see Note 13).

The Bridge Loan Agreement, when repaid on the IPO Closing Date, had a conversion feature that the Lender could exercise for a period of no more than 30 days from the IPO Closing Date to convert the loan amount into common shares of the Company at a price per common share equal to a 25% discount on the IPO closing price, which was exercised on April 22, 2019 (see Note 13).

In accordance with IFRS, a contract to issue a variable number of equity shares fails to meet the definition of equity and must instead be classified as a derivative liability and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations at each period-end. The derivative liability will ultimately be converted into the Company’s equity when the convertible notes payable is converted or will be extinguished on the repayment of the convertible notes payable and will not result in the outlay of any additional cash by the Company.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value of the derivative liability at each reporting date. This is a Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. The key Level 3 inputs used by management to determine the fair value are the expected future volatility in the price of the Company’s shares and the expected life of the convertible debentures. The Company believes that a 1 % difference in the inputs used for this fair value measurement would not cause a material difference to the fair value amount.

Upon initial recognition, the Company recorded a derivative liability and debt discount of $1,630 in relation to the derivative liability portion of the Bridge Loan Agreement (see Note 13). The Bridge Loan Agreement was converted into equity during the year ended December 31, 2019.

Pursuant to the above Bridge Loan Agreement, each subscriber was entitled to one-fourth of a share purchase warrants for each $1 dollars of the Bridge Loan Agreement at the IPO closing price.

(c) Convertible Debentures - $10M Convertible Note

On February 15, 2019, the Company completed a brokered private placement financing by issuing convertible notes payable (the “$10M Convertible Note”) in the amount of $10,000 bearing interest of 12% per annum (see Note 13), which contained a conversion feature with variability in the number of common shares issuable on conversion, as the conversion price was based on the IPO closing price. Pursuant to the $10M Convertible Note, each subscriber was entitled to one-half of a share purchase warrants for each $1 of the $10M Convertible Note at a price 30% above the IPO closing price

In accordance with IFRS, a contract to issue a variable number of equity shares fails to meet the definition of equity and must instead be classified as a derivative liability and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations at each period-end. The derivative liability will ultimately be converted into the Company’s equity when the convertible notes payable is converted or will be extinguished on the repayment of the convertible notes payable and will not result in the outlay of any additional cash by the Company.

(c) Convertible Debentures - $10M Convertible Note (Continued)

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value of the derivative liability at each reporting date. This is a Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. The key Level 3 inputs used by management to determine the fair value are the expected future volatility in the price of the Company’s common shares and the expected life of the convertible notes payable. The Company believes that a 1 % difference in the inputs used for this fair value measurement would not cause a material difference to the fair value amount.

Upon initial recognition, the Company recorded a derivative liability and debt discount of $5,210 in relation to the derivative liability portion of the $10M Convertible Note. See Note 13 for further details. During the year December 31, 2019, the Company recorded a gain of $4,951 on revaluation of the $10M Convertible Note derivative liability. Upon the IPO transaction, this derivative liability was reclassified to equity.

Furthermore, the Company reduced from $2.75 to $0.65 the Equity Price Guarantee per share associated with the 4,400,000 common shares originally issued by agreeing to transfer to the seller an additional 14,215,385 common shares that were returned by the Company’s founders (see Note 15), subject to a price floor of $0.65 per share.

In connection with the January 16, 2020 promissory note restructuring, the Company recorded a loss of debt restructuring of $8,065 in the consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

On January 15, 2019, the Company entered into a note payable agreement in the amount of $1,100 in exchange for cash receipts of $1,000 maturing the earlier of March 25, 2019 or 30 days after the Go Public Transaction.

The holders of the $10M Convertible Note may convert, in whole or in part, the principal and any outstanding accrued interest into shares of the Company at the IPO price. The $10M Convertible Note automatically lose the conversion privilege twenty-four months from issue. The terms of $10M Convertible Note are subject to an accelerator clause, whereby if four months have elapsed after the date of the IPO and the Company has 10 straight trading days at a price that is 50% greater than the IPO price, the Company may elect to convert the principal into shares of the Company at the IPO price and convert the accrued interest into shares of the Company at a price equal to the closing trading price on the day prior to the conversion.

Upon closing of the IPO, the conversion price of the debenture became fixed at $2.00. Accordingly, as the settlement of the debenture will only occur in a fixed number of shares, the conversion feature met the fixedfor-fixed criteria, and accordingly was reclassified to equity.

In connection with the issuance of the $10M Convertible Note, the Company paid cash of $600 for debt issuance fees. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded interest expense of $436 and $736 and accretion expense of $1,023 and $1,927, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recorded interest expense of $150 and $300 and accretion expense of $586 and $950, respectively.

May 2019 Convertible Debentures (Continued)

The Agent received a cash fee equal to 4% of the gross receipt of the debenture issued in the offering. The Agent received 478,933 shares at an exercise price of $2.10 any time until the 24th month anniversary of the issuance of the Secured Convertible Debentures. Each broker warrant entitles the holder to acquire one conversion unit at an exercise price of $2.10 any time until the 24th month anniversary of the issuance of the Secured Convertible Debentures (see Note 15).

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value of the agent option, embedded warrant and conversion feature of loan. The inputs used by management to determine the fair value are the expected future volatility in the price of the Company’s shares and the expected life of the Secured Convertible Debentures.

The conversion features, embedded warrants and agent option require a fixed number of shares to settle, therefore, they meet the criteria of fixed to fixed under IFRS, and hence classified as equity. Accordingly, the fair values of these were deducted from the gross proceeds and were accreted over the term of the note.

The following range of assumptions were used to value the equity components during the period ended December 31, 2019.

ber 31, 2019.

Volatility 100.00%
Risk-free interest rate 1.59%

(b) Contingencies

The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulation. Failure to comply with one or more of those regulations could result in fines, restrictions on its operations, or losses of permits that could result in the Company ceasing operations. While management of the Company believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulation as of June 30, 2020, medical marijuana regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, note receivable, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, derivative liability, lease obligations and notes payable.

Financial Assets

  • (i) Cash is comprised of deposits held in financial institutions and cash on hand.

Financial Liabilities

  • (i) Loans are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the end of the reporting period, which are classified as non-current assets.

  • (ii) Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible notes payable that are convertible to share capital at either the option of the holder or upon consummation of a qualifying go-public transaction. The liability component of the compound financial instruments is initially recognized as the difference between the fair value of the derivative liability (i.e., conversion feature) and the fair value of the convertible notes payable. Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method and the derivate liability is re-measured with subsequent changes in fair market value.

  • (iii) Other financial liabilities include the Company's accounts payable and accrued expenses, notes payable and lease obligations. The effective interest method is used to calculate the amortized cost of a financial liability and allocates interest income over the corresponding period. The effective interest rate is the rate that is used to discount estimated future cash receipts or payments over the expected life of the financial asset or liability.

Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs to fair value measurements. The three levels of hierarchy are:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

  • Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

There have been no transfers between fair value levels during the year.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)

Financial Risk Management

The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board mitigates these risks by assessing, monitoring and approving the Company’s risk management processes:

(a) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of a potential loss to the Company if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The maximum credit exposure at June 30, 2020 is the carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and note receivable. All cash is placed with major U.S. financial institutions. Credit risk from due from accounts receivable and note receivable arises from the possibility that amounts due become uncollectible.

(b) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to settle obligations and liabilities when due.

In addition to the commitments outlined in Note 15 and Note 18, the Company had the following contractual obligations as of June 30, 2020:

As of June 30, 2020, and December 31 2019, the Company had no hedging agreements in place with respect to foreign exchange rates. The Company has not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible currency risks at this time.

(ii) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s financial debts have fixed rates of interest and therefore expose the Company to a limited interest rate fair value risk.

(iii) Price Risk

Price risk is the risk of variability in fair value due to movements in equity or market prices.

(d) Banking Risk

Notwithstanding that most of the states have legalized medical marijuana, there has been no change in U.S. federal banking laws related to the deposit and holding of funds derived from activities related to the marijuana industry. Given that U.S. federal law provides that the production and possession of cannabis is illegal, there is a strong argument that banks cannot accept for deposit funds from businesses involved with the marijuana industry. Consequently, businesses involved in the marijuana industry often have difficulty accessing the U.S. banking system and traditional financing sources. The inability to open bank accounts with certain institutions may make it difficult to operate the businesses of the Company and leaves their cash holdings vulnerable.

(e) Asset Forfeiture Risk

Because the cannabis industry remains illegal under U.S. federal law, any property owned by participants in the cannabis industry which are either used in the course of conducting such business, or are the proceeds of such business, could be subject to seizure by law enforcement and subsequent civil asset forfeiture. Even if the owner of the property was never charged with a crime, the property in question could still be seized and subject to an administrative proceeding by which, with minimal due process, it could be subject to forfeiture.

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through August 26, 2020, which is the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

On July 20, 2020 the Company signed a Management Agreement (the "Management Agreement") with Freedom Town Holdings, LLC ("FT"), a multi-state operator that specializes in the production of high end cannabis flower, products, genetics and extraction, pursuant to which FT will provide management and operational consulting services for the Company's newly secured Florida cultivation and production facility in Zolfo Springs, Florida. The Management Agreement has a term of 7 years and compensates FT based on facility production.

On July 24, 2020 MXY Holdings, LLC and its affiliates (collectively "MXY") filed suit in California claiming breach by the Company of the Management Services Agreement ("MSA"). The terms of the MSA provided MXY with a fee for management consulting services, which services were supposed to include the creation and implementation of management plans and solutions, the provision of MXY personnel with industry expertise, and intellectual property. MXY's refusal or inability to materially deliver on its obligations prompted the Company to consider termination of the MSA and the Company sent MXY a default notice on July 8, 2020. The Company is aware of MXY lawsuit, seeking amounts it claims it is due under the MSA and denies all of MXY's claims and has a valid defense to such claims, and is vigorously defending the suit.
