Cansortium Inc. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020 (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 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, cartridges and edibles. 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 is comprised of a variety of third‐party 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 and investment 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 S.A.S (Cansortium Colombia) to 50% (see Notes 7 and 16 c.) and classified its Cansortium Colombia investment held for sale separately in the statement of financial position.

All of the Company’s operations are in one segment, the production and sale of medical cannabis. All revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, were generated in the United States.

These condensed interim 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.

The Company has recorded a net loss of $22,755 on its consolidated statement of operations, a negative cash flows from operations of $23,193 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and, as of that date, the Company had an accumulated deficit in the amount of $161,363. 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.

Cansortium Inc. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020 (Amounts expressed in thousands of United States Dollars unless otherwise stated)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

To date, the Company has been successful in obtaining enough funding for operating and capital requirements primarily through equity and debt financings. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations. 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, 2020, and 2019. 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, 2020, and 2019, 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 November 29, 2021.

(b) Basis of Measurement

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

(c) Functional and Presentation of Foreign Currency

The condensed interim 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.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(d) Basis of Consolidation

The 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 stakeholders’ 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 September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020.

Cansortium Inc. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020 (Amounts expressed in thousands of United States Dollars unless otherwise stated)

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(e) Critical Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s condensed interim 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.

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, 2020, and 2019.

(f) COVID‐19 outbreak

Since February 2020, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID‐ 19”, has resulted in a widespread international health crisis that has materially affected economies and financial markets, resulting in the rapid onset of an economic downturn. As a result, the Governments of Canada and the U.S. have instituted various recommendation and laws to help limit its spread. The duration and impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic is unknown at this time. The Company continues to monitor COVID‐19 developments and its production facilities have continued operations.

3. INVENTORY

As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, inventories consisted of the following:

**September 30, ** **September 30, ** December 31, December 31,

Finished goods 4,025 2,471
Inventoryreserve (1,738) (1,738)
Balance at end ofperiod $ 9,975
$ 5,006

Inventory material costs included in cost of goods sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, were $2,201 and $6,817, respectively. Inventory material costs included in cost of goods sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, were $1,106 and $2,877, respectively. Salaries and benefits charged to cost of goods sold for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, were $1,946 and $5,307, respectively.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2021, and year ended December 31, 2020 is as follows:

2020 is as follows:
**September 30, ** December 31,
2021 2020
Balance at beginning of period $ 1,914
$ 3,845
Cost incurred until harvest 9,567 6,856
Biological assets reserve - (180)
Effect of unrealized change in fair value of biological assets 11,768 17,516
Transferred to inventoryupon harvest (20,141) (26,123)
Balance at end ofperiod $ 3,108
$ 1,914

As of September 30, 2021, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2021, and the year ended December 31, 2020, used the following assumptions:

  • (a) Expected yields of the average grams of dried flower and trim per plant of 81 grams and 13 grams, respectively.

  • (b) Weighted average number of growing weeks completed as percentage of total growing weeks at the period end of 39% and 50%, respectively.

  • (c) Expected weighted average selling price in the retail market of $13.09 per gram and $10.81 per gram, respectively.

  • (d) Estimated weighted average costs to complete and sell flower and trim $8.59 and $4.83 per gram, respectively.

  • (e) Expected loss of plants until harvest of 26% and 25%, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2021, and the year ended December 31, 2020, 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 $311 and $191, respectively.

4. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS (Continued)

  • (b) A 10% increase or decrease on the weighted average of growing weeks completed as a percentage of total estimated growing weeks would increase or decrease the fair value of biological assets by $311 and $191, respectively.

  • (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 $24 and $94, 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 $6 and $77, 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 $91 and $33, respectively.

The Company estimates the harvest yields for cannabis at various stages of growth. As of September 30, 2021, it is expected that the Company’s biological assets will yield approximately 1,345,701 grams of dry cannabis when harvested.

As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company had 22,558 and 85,268 plants that were classified as biological assets, respectively.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, the Company recorded an allowance of $0 to reflect net realizable value adjustments related to its Texas biological assets. As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, biological assets reserve was $180.

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” or “GSI”) to acquire the assets of Green Standard (see Notes 10 and 16 o.), 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 is payable no later than the earlier of 3 years from 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 nine months ended September 30, 2021, and the year ended December 31, 2020, is as follows:

September 30, September 30, December 31, December 31,

5. NOTE RECEIVABLE (Continued)

The expected loss rate is based on the likelihood of the completion of the acquisition of GSI, the recovery of the note receivable amount against the expected GSI net profit, and any historical credit losses experienced within the period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward‐looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability to settle the note receivable. The note receivable was considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance recognized during the year was therefore limited to 12 months’ expected losses. Management considered an equivalent CCC rating for the note receivable.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded expected credit loss adjustment of $0 and $1,286, respectively, related to the Note Receivable.

Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $65 and $198, respectively. Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $60 and $124, respectively.

As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, accrued interest of note receivable was $440 and $242, respectively and was recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets (See Note 6).

Under the amended terms, Green Standard shareholders will receive $10 million in aggregate consideration to consist of common shares and proportionate voting shares exchangeable into an aggregate of 2,727,269 common shares of the Company, which were escrowed until May 15, 2021, plus cash consideration for the difference between the fair value of a common share (as valued per the agreement) and total purchase price of $10,000,000 to be generated by profits from Green Standard's Michigan business. The same number of shares of the Company that were previously issued to Green Standard shareholders and subject to vesting conditions were returned to treasury for cancellation and removal of the equity price guarantee that existed as through May 19, 2021. The balance of the shares in deposit as of December 31, 2020, representing the amount of restricted shares at $0.39 per share, was $1,050.

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.

Fluent Servicing Acquisition

In connection with the acquisition of the remaining interest of Fluent Servicing on August 15, 2018, the Company issued 4,400,000 membership interest of Cansortium Holdings LLC that were exchanged into 4,400,000 of shares of Cansortium subject to a price floor of $2.75 (“Equity Price Guarantee”), expiring on March 21, 2021.

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 14 (b)), 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 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. 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.

On May 6, 2021, the Company satisfied its obligations under the Amended Note payable dated January 16, 2020 in the principal amount of $12,933 to Can Endeavour LLC ("Can Endeavour"). Pursuant to the terms Can Endeavour elected to convert the principal amount of the Promissory Note into 21,555,483 common shares of the Company at $0.60 per share. The common shares have been issued by the Company to Can Endeavour and all accrued interest on the Promissory Note has been repaid in cash. Accordingly, the Company has satisfied its obligations under the Promissory Note, extinguishing the Equity Price Guarantee.

Green Standard

In connection with the agreement to buy the shares of Green Standard performed on October 5, 2018, (see Note 16 o.) and amended on January 1, 2019, the Company issued 2,727,269 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 agreement was amended and restated on May 19, 2020, to, among other things, eliminate the GSI Equity Price Guarantee.

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 GSI Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability during the period ended May 21, 2020:

during the period end ed May 21, 202

2020
Volatility 100.00%
Risk-free interest rate 0.17%
Expected life (years) 0.61 years

Exercise price $3.67

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a loss of $7 and $164 on revaluation of the GSI Equity Price Guarantee derivative liability, respectively.

Under the Plan, the Board may grant options to acquire common shares of the Company to officers, employees, and consultants, to a limit of 10% of the outstanding common shares of the Company, including proportionate voting shares. The purpose of the Plan is to provide the Company with a share‐related mechanism to attract, retain and motivate qualified Executives, Employees and Consultants to contribute toward the long‐term goals of the Company, and to encourage such individuals to acquire Shares of the Company as long‐term investments.

The term of an option grant is determined by the Board up to a maximum of 5 years from the grant date. Stock options granted generally vest over two to five years.

The following is a summary of the Company’s grant of options to some of its officers, directors, employees and consultants using the Black‐Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used through the periods ended September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, were the following:

Volatility rate for the above options estimated based on review of the historic volatility of publicly traded companies with similar operations. Fair Value is for each option granted.

In connection with the May 5, 2020, grant, the Company signed a Consulting Agreement with Zola Global Investors pursuant to which Zola received one million common shares and three million stock options. The fair value of these options of $446 were measured at the date of grant using the Black‐Scholes option pricing model.

In connection with May 15, 2020, grant, the Company signed Consulting Agreement for services to be rendered in connection with its Michigan cultivation and operation facilities of Green Standard pursuant to which the consultant received 150,000 options. The fair value of these options of $17 were measured at the date of grant using the Black‐Scholes option pricing model.

On January 22, 2021, the Company issued to its Board of Directors members 1,700,000 options as compensation resulting increase to share capital $968 (See Note 19).

On August 31, 2021 the Company issued to its new Board of Directors members 750,000 options as compensation resulting increase to share capital $382 (See Note 19).

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $448 and $1,489 as stock‐ based compensation, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized $73 and $1,171 as stock‐ based compensation, respectively

These expenses were calculated based on the vesting conditions of each grant and recorded as stock‐based compensation in the consolidated statements of operations with corresponding credit to equity (share‐based compensation reserve).

As of September 30, 2021, there were 16,990,940 options outstanding, comprising of 16,146,539 options vested and 844,401 options non‐vested, with remaining contractual lives 0.4 to 5 years.

(b) Contingencies

The Company’s operations are subject to a variety of local and state regulation.

While management of the Company believes that the Company is in compliance with applicable local and state regulation as of September 30, 2021, medical marijuana regulations continue to evolve and are subject to differing interpretations. As a result, the Company may be subject to regulatory fines, penalties, or restrictions in the future.

18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)

(c) Claims and Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2021, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s operations, except for the claims disclosed below. There are also no proceedings in which any of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s interest, except for the claims disclosed below.

On September 3, 2019, the Company and Cansortium Inc., along with certain executives of the Company, were sued in Florida by Querrey Group, LLC, et al., wherein Querrey alleges, among other claims, breach of its consulting contract with Cansortium Inc, LLC and seeks approximately $2,100 in damages. The matter was settled on October 28, 2021.

On April 26, 2021, MXY Holdings, LLC and its affiliates (collectively "MXY") filed suit in Florida claiming breach by the Company of the Management Services Agreement ("MSA") in an amount not less than $2,500. 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.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, note receivable, accounts payable 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

  • (iii) 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.

  • (iv) 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 as of September 30, 2021 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.

In addition to the commitments outlined in Note 18, the Company had the following contractual obligations as of September 30, 2021:

(b) Market Risk

  • (i) Price Risk

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

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)

(b) Market Risk (Continued)

  • (i) Currency Risk

The consolidated operating results and consolidated financial position of the Company are reported in U.S. dollars. Some of the Company’s financial transactions are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The results of the Company’s operations are subject to currency transaction and translation risks.

As of September 30, 2021, and 2020, 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.

(c) 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.

(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 November 29, 2021, which is the date these condensed interim consolidated financial statements were issued.

On November 5, 2021, the Company announced that it has changed its auditor from MNP LLP (“Former Auditor”) to Baker Tilly US, LLP (“Successor Auditor”) effective October 15, 2021. At the request of the Company, the Former Auditor resigned as the auditor of the Company effective October 1, 2021 and the board of directors of the Company appointed the Successor Auditor as the Company’s auditor effective October 15, 2021, to hold office until the next annual meeting of the Company. There were no modified opinions in the Former Auditor’s audit reports for the Company’s two most recent financial years and ending at the date of the resignation of the Former Auditor. There are no “reportable events” (as the term is defined in National Instrument 51‐102: Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI 51‐102”)) between the Company and the Former Auditor.
