SNDL Inc. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (Unaudited, expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except where otherwise noted)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

SNDL Inc. (“SNDL” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on August 19, 2006. On July 25, 2022, the Company’s shareholders approved a special resolution amending the articles of SNDL to change the name of the Company from “Sundial Growers Inc.” to “SNDL Inc.”.

The Company’s head office is located at 300, 919 11th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

The principal activities of the Company are the retailing of wines, beers and spirits, the operation and support of corporate-owned and franchise retail cannabis stores in Canadian jurisdictions where the private sale of recreational cannabis is permitted, the production, distribution and sale of cannabis in Canada pursuant to the Cannabis Act (Canada) (the “Cannabis Act”), and the deployment of capital to investment opportunities. The Cannabis Act regulates the production, distribution, and possession of cannabis for both medical and adult recreational access in Canada. The Company also owns approximately 63% of Nova Cannabis Inc. (“Nova”) (TSX: NOVC), whose principal activities are the retail sale of cannabis.

SNDL and its subsidiaries currently operate solely in Canada. Through its joint venture, SunStream Bancorp Inc. (note 14), the Company provides growth capital that pursues indirect investment and financial services opportunities in the global cannabis sector, as well as other investment opportunities. The Company also makes strategic portfolio investments in debt and equity securities.

The Company’s common shares trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “SNDL”.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements (“financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These financial statements were prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021.

These financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors (“Board”) on November 14, 2022.

3. BUSINESS ACQUISITION

A) ALCANNA

On October 7, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into an arrangement agreement with Alcanna Inc. (“Alcanna”) pursuant to which the Company would acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alcanna by way of a statutory plan of arrangement (the “Alcanna Transaction”). The Company and Alcanna amended the arrangement agreement in respect of the Alcanna Transaction on January 6, 2022, and the Alcanna Transaction closed on March 31, 2022. Alcanna is a Canadian liquor retailer, operating predominantly in Alberta under its three retail brands, “Wine and Beyond”, “Liquor Depot” and “Ace Liquor”. Alcanna holds an approximate 63% equity interest in Nova, a Canadian cannabis retailer operating stores across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario, under its “Value Buds” retail brand. The Company is deemed to control Nova through its equity interest and Nova’s results are included in the financial statements of the Company with the minority interest shown as non-controlling interest through equity.

Alcanna was acquired to diversify and stabilize cash flows and advance the Company’s vertical integration strategy.

SNDL Inc. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022

(Unaudited, expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except where otherwise noted)

The Alcanna Transaction consideration was comprised of (i) an aggregate $54.3 million cash ($1.50 in cash for each Alcanna common share), and (ii) an aggregate 32.1 million SNDL common shares valued at $287.1 million based on the fair value of each common share of the Company on the closing date (0.885 of a SNDL common share for each Alcanna common share).

The Company has engaged independent valuation experts to assist in determining the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed and related deferred income tax impacts. The purchase price allocation is not final as the Company is continuing to obtain and verify information required to determine the fair value of certain assets and liabilities and the amount of deferred income taxes arising on their recognition.

Due to the inherent complexity associated with valuations and the timing of the acquisition, the amounts below are provisional and subject to adjustment.

The fair value of consideration paid was as follows:

Cash 54,339
Issuance of common shares 287,129
341,468

The preliminary fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired was as follows:

Cash 23,190 23,190
Accounts receivable 1,868
Prepaid expenses and deposits 10,986
Inventory 105,022
Right of use assets 171,866
Property, plant and equipment 86,059
Goodwill 280,243
Accountspayable and accrued liabilities (36,703
)
Long-term debt (10,000
)
Lease liabilities (232,755
)
Derivative warrants (58
)
Non-controllinginterest (58,250
)
341,468

Non-controlling interest has been measured as the fair value of the non-controlling interest in Nova, which at the time was 37%, and was measured by applying a market approach with reference to Nova’s closing share price on the day of the Alcanna Transaction of $2.66.

As new information obtained within one year of the date of acquisition, about facts and circumstances that existed at the date of acquisition, identifies adjustments to the above amounts, the accounting for the acquisition will be revised.

On March 31, 2022, the Company repaid in full the acquired long-term debt balance of $10.0 million.

The financial statements incorporate the operations of Alcanna commencing March 31, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded revenues of $211.4 million and net earnings of $3.8 million from the Alcanna operations. From the date of acquisition on March 31, 2022, to September 30, 2022, the Company recorded revenues of $418.3 million and net earnings of $4.5 million for the Alcanna operations. Had the Alcanna Transaction closed on January 1, 2022, management estimates that for the period January 1, 2022, to March 30, 2022, revenue would have increased by $162.5 million and net loss would have increased by $6.1 million. In determining these amounts, management assumes the fair values on the date of acquisition would have been the same as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2022.

The Company incurred costs related to the Alcanna Transaction of $7.1 million which have been included in transaction costs.

B) INNER SPIRIT

On May 5, 2021, the Company and Inner Spirit Holdings Ltd. (“Inner Spirit”) announced that they had entered into an arrangement agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Inner Spirit (the “Inner Spirit Transaction”). The Inner Spirit Transaction closed on July 20, 2021. Inner Spirit is a retailer and franchisor of Spiritleaf recreational cannabis stores across Canada, with a network that included more than 100 franchised and corporate-owned locations at the acquisition date.

The Company engaged independent valuation experts to assist in determining the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed and related deferred income tax impacts.

The fair value of consideration paid was as follows:

The Company recorded adjustments to the fair value in the third quarter of 2022 to reflect additional information and greater certainty with respect to management estimates pertaining to facts and circumstances that were either unknown or uncertain at the date of acquisition. These adjustments related to changes in preliminary valuation assumptions, including refinement of accounts receivable, inventory, net investment in subleases, lease liabilities and amounts allocated to intangible assets and a deferred tax liability. All measurement period adjustments were offset to goodwill.

The Company made retrospective adjustments to provisional amounts in the comparative period as follows:

  • The carrying amount of intangible assets as at December 31, 2021 was increased by $45.4 million, representing the increase in fair value of $46.0 million less additional amortization from the acquisition date to December 31, 2021 of $0.6 million.

(Unaudited, expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except where otherwise noted)

  • The deferred tax liability of $5.6 million was adjusted to nil with a corresponding adjustment recorded to income tax recovery, on the basis that the Company and Inner Spirit are subject to income tax under the same taxation authority.

  • Amortization expense for 2021 was increased by $0.6 million (Q3 2021 – $0.3 million and Q4 2021 – $0.3 million).

  • – Goodwill was decreased by $42.0 million.

INNER SPIRIT GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSET IMPAIRMENT

At September 30, 2022, the Company recorded impairments to goodwill of $67.9 million and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives of $16.4 million due to changes in circumstances since the date of the acquisition, mainly caused by the continued oversaturation of the cannabis retail market. The goodwill and intangible asset impairments were recognized in the cannabis retail reportable segment. The estimated recoverable amount was determined to be its value in use and was $40.0 million using a discount rate of 19.5%.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s reportable segments are organized by business line, and with the acquisition of Alcanna, are comprised of four reportable segments: liquor retail, cannabis retail, cannabis operations, and investments.

Liquor retail includes the sale of wines, beers and spirits through owned liquor stores. Cannabis retail includes the private sale of recreational cannabis through owned and franchise retail cannabis stores. Cannabis operations include the cultivation, distribution and sale of cannabis for the adult-use and medical markets in Canada. Investments include the deployment of capital to investment opportunities. Certain overhead expenses not directly attributable to any operating segment are reported as “Corporate”.

Biological assets are valued in accordance with IAS 41 and are presented at their fair value less costs to sell up to the point of harvest. 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 produce and sell per gram.

The fair value measurements for biological assets have been categorized as Level 3 fair values based on the inputs to the valuation technique used. 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.

Management believes the most significant unobservable inputs and their impact on fair value of biological assets are as follows:

Assumption Input Weighted average input Weighted average input Effect of 10% change ($000s) Effect of 10% change ($000s)

These assumptions are estimates that are subject to volatility in market prices and several uncontrollable factors. The Company’s estimates are, by their nature, subject to change and differences from the anticipated yield will be reflected in the net change in fair value of biological assets in future periods.

The Company estimates the harvest yields for cannabis at various stages of growth. As at September 30, 2022, it is estimated that the Company’s biological assets will yield approximately 3,274 kilograms (December 31, 2021 – 5,672 kilograms) of dry cannabis when harvested. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company harvested 16,642 kilograms of dry cannabis (nine months ended September 30, 2021 – 11,628 kilograms).

Brands and trademarks consist of intellectual property purchased from Sun 8 Holdings Inc. (“Sun 8”) with a useful life of 15 years, other intellectual property with a useful life of 12 years and intellectual property acquired through the acquisition of Inner Spirit consisting of proprietary rights to brands and trademarks with an indefinite useful life. The Inner Spirit brands and trademarks were determined to have an indefinite useful life due to the fact that there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. Franchise agreements consist of intellectual property acquired through the acquisition of Inner Spirit consisting of franchise relationships with a useful life of 8 years.

INVESTMENTS AT FVTPL

On February 9, 2022, the Company closed on a $5.0 million promissory note with a maturity date of February 9, 2025, and an interest rate of 15% per annum. On August 26, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated promissory note whereby the Company would advance additional funds up to $7.1 million as part of pre-CCAA advances and debtor-in-possession advances and the maturity date was amended such that the full balance of the promissory note plus accrued interest and advances became due August 30, 2022. On August 31, 2022, the Company announced that, in the context of the initial order obtained by Superette Inc., Superette Ontario Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, "Superette") from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on August 30, 2022 pursuant to the CCAA proceedings, it has entered into an agreement of purchase and sale with Superette, pursuant to which it proposes to acquire substantially all of the business and assets of Superette. As at September 30, 2022, the Company has advanced an additional $0.8 million under the amended and restate promissory note. The Company has adjusted the fair value of the promissory note downward by $3.5 million to management’s best estimate of the recoverable value of the collateral underlying the security of the promissory note.

On March 30, 2022, the Company closed on a $10.0 million convertible debenture with Delta 9 Cannabis Inc. with a maturity date of March 30, 2025, and an interest rate of 10% per annum. On August 11, 2022, and again on September 9, 2022, the Company waived compliance under certain covenants in exchange for a requirement to meet additional conditions.

On June 17, 2022, Zenabis Global Inc. (“Zenabis Global”), as well as Zenabis Global’s direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Zenabis Global Group”), filed a petition with the Québec Superior Court for protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”). On June 16, 2022 (and amended on July 5, 2022), the Company entered into a purchase agreement pursuant to which the shares of Zenabis Global and all business and assets of the Zenabis Global Group (the “Zenabis Business”) would be acquired by SNDL. On November 1, 2022, the Company announced the acquisition of certain assets and permitted liabilities of Zenabis Global (note 26).

The Company has adjusted the fair value of the Zenabis Global senior loan downward by $22.1 million (note 22) to management’s best estimate of the fair value of the Zenabis Global senior loan at September 30, 2022, in accordance with the requirements of IFRS. In the event that facts and circumstances change the fair value may be adjusted further.

On August 22, 2022, the Company and The Valens Company Inc. (“Valens”) announced that they had entered into an arrangement agreement (the “Valens Arrangement Agreement”) to combine their businesses. Pursuant to the terms

of the Valens Arrangement Agreement, the Company will acquire, subject to Valens’ shareholder approval and customary closing conditions, all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Valens, other than those owned by SNDL and its subsidiaries, by way of a statutory plan of arrangement (the “Valens Transaction”). In connection with the Valens Arrangement Agreement, the Company and Valens closed a $60.0 million non-revolving term loan facility with a maturity date of December 15, 2023 and an interest rate of 10% per annum. The Valens Transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2023, however, no assurance can be given that this will be the case.

The carrying amount is an estimate of the fair value of the derivative warrants and is presented as a current liability. The derivative warrants are classified as a liability due to the Company’s share price being denominated in USD, which creates variability as to the value in CAD when they are exercised. The derivative warrants are recorded as a current liability, however, the Company has no cash obligation nor is there any cash loss with respect to the derivative warrants, rather it will deliver common shares if and when warrants are exercised.

The following table summarizes outstanding derivative warrants as at September 30, 2022:

(1) The conversion or exercise price, as applicable, is subject to full ratchet antidilution protection upon any subsequent transaction at a price lower than the price then in effect and standard adjustments in the event of any share split, share dividend, share combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction. If the Company issues, sells or enters into any agreement to issue or sell, any variable rate securities, the investors have the additional right to substitute the variable price (or formula) of such securities for the conversion or exercise price, as applicable.

(2) The exercise price of the New Warrants was adjusted from USD $15.00 to $2.29 based on the July 26, 2022 Share Consolidation representing a share combination event.

In connection with the Alcanna Transaction (note 3(a)), the Company acquired warrants previously issued by Nova (the “December 2018 Performance Warrants”) that are classified as a liability.

The December 2018 Performance Warrants became immediately exercisable upon issuance. Each performance warrant includes a performance incentive that entitles the warrant holders to additional common shares of Nova upon exercise provided that the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of Nova’s common shares (the “Market Price”) equals or exceeds $19.27 at any time prior to the expiration date of the warrants. The Market Price condition has not been met. As such, the fair value of the December 2018 Performance Warrants was recognized as a warrant

liability, inclusive of a probability weighting associated with the performance incentive being met. Under the terms of the warrant agreements, each performance warrant can be exercised for 0.05449 to 0.08174 of a Nova common share (depending on whether performance conditions are met) prior to the expiration date of December 18, 2023, at an exercise price of $5.51 per Nova common share. At September 30, 2022, there were 118,067 December 2018 Performance Warrants outstanding.

(A) FINANCIAL GUARANTEE LIABILITY

For franchise operated locations where the Company provided an indemnity for its franchisees, lease payments are made directly to the landlord by the franchisee, and the obligation to make lease payments would only revert to the Company if a franchisee defaulted on their obligations under the terms of the sub-lease or lease. The Company has made an estimate of expected credit losses in the event of default by the franchisees in making lease payments. This amount is recognized as a financial guarantee liability in the consolidated statement of financial position, and changes in the estimated liability are recognized as a financial guarantee liability expense within finance costs in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

(B) DSU LIABILITY

Deferred share units (“DSUs”) are granted to directors and generally vest in equal instalments over one year. DSUs are settled by making a cash payment to the holder, equal to the fair value of the Company’s common shares calculated at the date of such payment, when a director leaves the board. DSUs are accounted for as a liability instrument and measured at fair value based on the market value of the Company’s common shares at each period end. Changes in the fair value are recognized within share-based compensation expense (note 19(d)).

18. SHARE CAPITAL AND WARRANTS

(A) AUTHORIZED

The authorized capital of the Company consists of an unlimited number of voting common shares and preferred shares with no par value.

On July 26, 2022, the Board approved a 1 to 10 share consolidation of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares (the “Share Consolidation”). Each shareholder of record of the Company as of the close of business on the record date of July 25, 2022, received 1 common share for each 10 shares held on such date.

All references to common shares, warrants, simple warrants, performance warrants, stock options, RSUs and DSUs (excluding the Nova RSUs and DSUs) have been fully retrospectively adjusted to reflect the Share Consolidation.

24. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The financial instruments recognized on the consolidated statement of financial position are comprised of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, investments at amortized cost, investments at FVTPL, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and derivative warrants.

A) FAIR VALUE

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The carrying value of investments at amortized cost approximate their fair value as the fixed interest rates approximate market rates for comparable transactions.

At September 30, 2022, a 10% change in the material assumptions would change the estimated fair value of derivative warrant liabilities by approximately $1.3 million.

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 inputs during the period.

26. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

ACQUISITION OF ZENABIS BUSINESS

On November 1, 2022, the Company announced that, in the context of proceedings pursuant to the Zenabis Group’s (as defined below) filing under the CCAA, it had successfully acquired all of the assets of the business of the Zenabis Group, subject to certain exclusions, (the “Zenabis Business”), pursuant to an approval order of the Québec Superior Court (the “Court”).

The Zenabis Business’ core asset is the 380,000-square-foot indoor growing facility in Atholville, New Brunswick, which has an annual production capacity of approximately 46,000 kilograms of dried cannabis and 15,000 kilograms of extraction capacity. The facility previously received EU GMP certification and has exported cannabis shipments to Malta, Israel and Australia. The Company acquired more than 22 million grams of cannabis inventory.

The Zenabis Business’ non-core assets include a 255,000-square foot industrial facility in Stellarton, Nova Scotia, which is under non-binding discussions for sale by SNDL. Certain intellectual property rights for the Zenabis brands and cannabis strains were also acquired.

The order of the Court approved the acquisition by a wholly owned subsidiary of SNDL of all issued and outstanding shares of Zenabis Ltd., a corporation resulting from the amalgamation of select Zenabis entities (collectively, the “Zenabis Group”), as part of the consideration for the senior secured debt of the Zenabis Group due to the SNDL subsidiary. Zenabis Ltd. owns all of the Zenabis Business, free and clear of any encumbrances except certain permitted encumbrances (namely the security of the wholly owned subsidiary of SNDL, which was preserved).
