MCI Onehealth Technologies Inc.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following is a discussion of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of MCI Onehealth Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries (together, the “Company”) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 (the “MD&A”). The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 (the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements were prepared in accordance International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this MD&A, constitute “forward-looking information” and "forward looking statements" (collectively, "forward looking statements") within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws and are based on assumptions, expectations, estimates and projections as of the date of this MD&A. Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to projected revenues, earnings, growth rates, targets, revenue mix and product plans and the Company’s future growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities. The words “plans”, “expects”, “projected”, “estimated”, “forecasts”, “anticipates”, “intend”, “guidance”, “outlook”, “potential”, “prospects”, “seek”, “aim”, “strategy”, “targets” or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain future conditions, actions, events or results “will”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “can”, or negative versions thereof, “occur”, “continue” or “be achieved”, and other similar expressions, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon management’s perceptions of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as a number of specific factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date of such statements, are outside of the Company's control and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies which could result in the forward-looking statements ultimately being entirely or partially incorrect or untrue. Forward looking statements contained in this MD&A are based on various assumptions, including, but not limited to the following: the overall Network Policy Control market including reliance on major customers; adoption of virtual series solutions; the requirement for increasingly innovative product solutions; the Company's ability to achieve its growth strategy; the demand for the Company’s products and fluctuations in future revenues; sufficiency of current working capital to support future operating and working capital requirements; the stability of general economic and market conditions; currency exchange rates and interest rates; equity and debt markets continuing to provide the Company with access to capital; the Company's ability to comply with applicable laws and regulations; the Company’s continued compliance with third party intellectual property rights; and that the risk factors noted below, collectively, do not have a material impact on the Company's business, operations, revenues and/or results. By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties that may be general or specific and which give rise to the possibility that expectations, forecasts, predictions, projections, or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, that assumptions may not be correct, and that objectives, strategic goals and priorities will not be achieved.

Known and unknown risk factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, could cause the actual results of the Company to differ materially from the results, performance, achievements, or developments expressed or implied by such forwardlooking statements. Such risk factors include but are not limited to those factors which are discussed in the Company’s annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “ AIF ”), a copy of which is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The risk factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect the Company and the reader is cautioned to consider these and other factors, uncertainties, and potential events carefully and not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purpose

1

of providing information about management’s expectations and plans relating to the future. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law. All the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are qualified by these cautionary statements.

NON-IFRS MEASURES

Earnings Before Interest and Other, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) is not a recognized measure under IFRS, and investors are cautioned that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) or cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of the Company’s performance or cash flows.

The Company’s method of calculating EBITDA may differ from other companies’ methods and may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. Management uses EBITDA to assist in identifying underlying operating trends and allows for a comparison of the Company’s operating performance on a consistent basis. Investors may also use EBITDA, amongst other financial measures, to assist in the valuation of the Company.

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with IFRS. This MD&A also includes certain measures which have not been prepared in accordance with IFRS such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA per share used to evaluate the Company’s operating performance as a complement to results provided in accordance with IFRS.

The term “Adjusted EBITDA” refers to net income (loss) before adjusting for share-based payment expense, depreciation and amortization, deferred share unit expense, restructuring costs, foreign exchange (gain) loss, finance income, finance costs and income taxes. The company believes that the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are not connected to and does not represent the operating performance of the Company. “Adjusted EBITDA margin” refers to the percentage that Adjusted EBITDA for any period represents as a portion of total revenue for that period.

“Adjusted EBITDA per share” refers to Adjusted EBITDA divided by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding, which the Company calculate on a basic and diluted basis.

The Company believe that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA per share are useful supplemental information as they provide an indication of the results generated by the Company’s main business activities prior to taking into consideration how those activities are financed and taxed as well as expenses related to share-based payment expense, impairment charge on non-financial assets, impairment of loan receivable and shared services, deferred share unit expense and the other items listed above. Accordingly, the Company believes that these measures may also be useful to investors in enhancing their understanding of the Company’s operating performance. See “ Results of Operations – Adjusted EBITDA ”.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA per share are not measures recognized by IFRS and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Adjusted EBITDA per share may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with IFRS.

CORPORATE BACKGROUND

The Company was incorporated on July 18, 2012 under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and was continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act on January 4, 2021. The principal activities of the Company are the operation of primary care medical clinics in the provinces of Alberta and Ontario, Canada.

GLOBAL PANDEMIC – COVID-19 UPDATE

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a disease caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus (COVID19) to be a pandemic. This pandemic has had widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global societies, economies, financial markets, and business practices. Federal and state governments have implemented measures to contain the virus, including physical distancing, travel restrictions, border closures, limitations on public gatherings, work from home, supply chain logistical changes and closure of non-essential businesses.

Epidemic and pandemic diseases, such as the outbreak of COVID-19, may have a significant impact on MCI. The Group continues to adapt to the impacts of COVID-19 on the business, with the health and safety of employees, patients, and communities as the highest priority. Since the World Health Organization’s declaration of the global pandemic in March 2020, we successfully expedited our business continuity program, however, a risk of this nature may still have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

In response to the negative economic impact of COVID-19, various government programs were announced to provide financial relief to affected businesses. The Government of Canada introduced the CEWS program, which subsidizes a portion of employee wages (up to a specified maximum) for Canadian employers whose businesses have met eligibility criteria. The program is intended to help employers rehire previously laid off workers, prevent further job losses, and better position Canadian businesses to resume normal operations. The Government of Canada also introduced the and Canada's Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance Program (“CECRA”) to provide rent and other relief to businesses, non-profits and charities that have experienced revenue declines during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has obtained approximately $2,967 in assistance from the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS) and Canada's Emergency Commercial Rent Assistance Program (CERCA) which has been recorded as reduction of the total General and administrative expenses.

The Company has considered the significant impact of COVID-19 on the business in 2020 with all but one clinic remaining open for the entire year. One clinic has remained closed since the second quarter due to the closure of the building. The Company has two other clinics within 1 kilometer of the closed location, which have enabled it to mitigate some of the impact of the closed location. The Company expects a return to full operations in all medical clinics by the end of 2021, with a growth in revenue for 2022.

Due to the fluidity of the COVID-19 pandemic and the uncertainty of its magnitude, outcome and duration, the Company is unable to definitively quantify its potential impact. The Company has taken measures to manage costs, including a reduction of operating expenses.

Business Overview

The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiaries provides healthcare and healthcare related services to patients and the employees of corporate customers through its network of 25 brick and mortar clinics (20 in Ontario and 5 in Alberta), complemented by telehealth, MCI Connect virtual platform rolling out, as well as on-site services for its corporate customers.

The Company performs approximately 850,000 healthcare and healthcare related consultations annually to individual consumers and the employees of 250 corporate customers through a team of 280 contracted physicians, 340 employees and other third-party healthcare contractors.

The Company’s mission is to empower patients and physicians with advanced technologies intended to increase access, improve quality and consistency of health services. MCI believes that this will improve the affordability of government-funded and privately funded primary care services. Industry statistics show 70% of all adverse medical events are estimated to be preventable. The Company believes that advanced technologies will play a key role in MCI’s ability to expand its healthcare and healthcare-related service offerings.

To this end, MCI is scaling development of its patient and doctor-facing applications to support new health services it intends to deliver through its proprietary virtual care platform MCI Connect. MCI Connect is currently offered through computer browsers

available on most computing platforms. Mobile versions of MCI Connect for mobile phones, connected wearables such as Apple’s iWatch are expected to be broadly available in 2021.

MCI is further scaling development of its data analytics platform BrightOS, which is expected to become available to MCI’s physicians as a tool to aid in their daily operations as well as to external customers in the later half of calendar 2021.

Currently MCI’s revenue consists primarily of provincially funded medical consultations delivered through the Company’s 25 brick and mortar clinics, telehealth and virtual care platform in Ontario and Alberta as well as privately paid for health services delivered to corporate customers at the customer’s workplace.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

Key performance indicators that the Company uses to manage its business and evaluate its financial results and operating performance include revenue, expenses, gross profit, gross margin, adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA per share, and net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share. The Company evaluates its performance on these metrics by comparing its actual results to management budgets, forecasts, and prior period performance.

The weighted average number of shares outstanding and basic and diluted loss per share at December 31, 2019 were restated to reflect the recapitalization of the Company on December 23, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2020 was a loss of $1,819, as compared to an adjusted EBITDA income of $744, in the comparative period in 2019, due to bonuses and TSX listing related expenses.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, adjusted EBITDA was $ 2,204, as compared to $3,773 for the comparative period in 2019. The decrease was due to reduced revenues, incremental expenses related to $1,501 special bonuses and $638 in TSX listing related expenses. This was offset by CERS and CEWS subsidies received during the year.

Summary of quarterly results:

The Company’s quarterly operating results have historically fluctuated within in a narrow band with modestly positive seasonality in the fourth and first fiscal quarters due to the cough and cold season. The COVID pandemic drove significant fluctuation during fiscal 2020 due to the lockdowns that negatively impacted patient volumes. The Company believes COVID will continue to cause wider than historic quarterly fluctuations going forward and is unable to predict their impact.. Therefore, the Company believes that past operating results and period- to-period comparisons should not be relied upon as an indication of the Company’s future performance.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

In the normal course of its business, the Company engage in operating and financing activities that generate risks in the following primary areas:

a) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company's main credit risks relate to its accounts receivable and net investments in sublease. The Company's accounts receivable does not represent a significant concentration of credit risk because the largest part of the accounts is collected from branches of provincial governments (2020 - 66%; 2019 - 90%). The credit risk related to receivables from branches of provincial governments is considered to be low due to strong provincial credit ratings, lowering the risk of default. The Company's remaining accounts receivable and net investment in subleases are diversified among a range of corporations and individual patients and tenants. There has been no change in the assessment of credit risk from the prior year.

b) Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk, and price risk. The Company is mainly exposed to 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. As described in Note 10, the Company is exposed to interest rate risk with respect to its credit facilities. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019 no amounts were drawn on these facilities.

The following table summarizes the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments:

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized on the consolidated statement of financial position at fair value in a hierarchy that is based on significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The levels in the hierarchy are:

  • Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

15

  • Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices)

  • Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e., unobservable inputs)

Due to the short-term maturities of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, related party loans, other liabilities, accrued liabilities, and the promissory note the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate fair value at the respective balance sheet date.

There were no financial instruments measured or disclosed categorized as level 1, 2 or 3 fair value within the hierarchy as at December 31, 2020 and 2019. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between levels during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. The reported amounts of net investment in subleases and lease liabilities approximates fair value due to the application of a market rate of interest when initially recognizing the financial assets or financial liability.

c) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is exposed to this risk mainly with respect to its accounts payable and accrued liabilities and promissory note payable. The Company manages this risk by managing its working capital, ensuring that sufficient credit is available and by generating sufficient cash flow from operations. The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as of December 31, 2020:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

General

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the annual consolidated financial statements are disclosed.

Significant accounting estimates, judgements and assumptions include the following:

  • a) Leases

16

Management uses judgment and estimates in the determination of the lease term for some lease contracts in which the Group is a lessee including whether the Group is reasonably certain to exercise lessee options. Management uses judgment and estimates in the determination of the incremental borrowing rate used to measure lease liabilities.

b) Estimated useful lives of property and equipment.

Management estimates the useful lives of property and equipment based on the period during which the assets are expected to be available for use. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for depreciation of property and equipment for any period are affected by these estimated useful lives. The estimates are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations change as a result of physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limits to use. It is possible that changes in these factors may cause significant changes in the estimated useful lives of the Group's property and equipment in the future.

c) Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm’s length, for similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs of disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model. The cash flows are derived from the budget for the next five years and do not include restructuring activities that the Company is not yet committed to or significant future investments that will enhance the performance of the assets of the cash generating unit being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the DCF model as well as the expected future cash-inflows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes. Changes in these assumptions could result in impairment being recorded.

d) Accounts Receivable

The Company evaluates the collectability of the trade receivables at both a specific and collective level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. All individually significant receivables found not to be specifically impaired, together with receivables that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together receivables with similar risk characteristics.

SHARE CAPITAL

Outstanding Share Data

The Company has authorized an unlimited number of Class A Subordinate Voting Shares, an unlimited number of Class B Multiple Voting Shares and an unlimited number of Preferred Shares (2019 – unlimited number of common share and preference shares). As at December 31, 2020, there were 40,000,000 Class A Subordinate Voting Shares and 36,000,000 Class B Multiple Voting Shares issued and outstanding (2019 – 200 common shares).

17

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures:

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures as defined under National Instrument 52-109. At December 31, 2020, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective and that material information relating to the Company was made known to them and was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified under applicable securities legislation.

Internal controls over financial reporting:

Management is responsible for designing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting (“ICFR”) as defined under National Instrument 52-109. At December 31, 2020, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these internal controls and procedures was effective in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS using the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) Framework (2013).

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have evaluated, or caused to be evaluated under their supervision, whether there were changes to its ICFR during the quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s ICFR. No such changes were identified through their evaluation.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that its objectives are met. Due to inherent limitations in all systems, no evaluations of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Accordingly, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting are effective in providing reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of its control systems have been met.

CONTINGENCIES

In October 2019, a claim was lodged against MCI Medical Clinics Inc. asserting that the subsidiary had breached a lease agreement for a clinic. The matter is currently being considered by the courts, and the Group expects judgment before the end of 2021. The Group considers it to be too early to make a determination as to its probability of the outcome and has therefore not recognized a provision in relation to this claim. The potential undiscounted amount of the total payments that the Group could be required to make, if there was an adverse decision related to the lawsuit, is estimated to be approximately $3,000,000.

In October 2017, a claim was lodged against MCI Medical Clinics Inc. asserting medical malpractice. The matter is currently being considered by the courts, and the Company expects judgment before the end of 2022. The Company considers it to be too early to make a determination as to its probability of the outcome and has therefore not recognized a provision in relation to this claim. The potential undiscounted amount of the total payments that the Company could be required to make, if there was an adverse decision related to the lawsuit, is estimated to be approximately $5,250,000.

Subsequent Events

18

On January 5, 2020, the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of an aggregate of 6,000,000 Class A Subordinate Voting Shares at a price of $ 5.00 per share for aggregate proceeds of $30,000,000.
