TerrAscend Corp.
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020
(Amounts expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except for per share amounts)
1. Nature of operations
TerrAscend Corp. (“TerrAscend” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Ontario Business Corporations Act on March 7, 2017. TerrAscend is a leading North American cannabis operator with vertically integrated operations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and California, licensed cultivation and processing operations in Maryland, and licensed production in Canada. TerrAscend operates a chain of Apothecarium dispensary retail locations, as well as scaled cultivation, processing, and manufacturing facilities on both the East and West coasts of the United States. TerrAscend’s cultivation and manufacturing practices provide industry-leading product selection to both the medical and legal adult-use market. TerrAscend operates a number of synergistic businesses, including The Apothecarium (“Apothecarium”); Arise Bioscience Inc., a manufacturer and distributor of hemp-derived products; Ilera Healthcare (“Ilera”), Pennsylvania’s medical cannabis cultivator, processor and dispenser; HMS Health, LLC and HMS Processing, LLC (collectively “HMS”), a medical cannabis cultivator and processor based in Maryland; Valhalla Confections, a manufacturer of cannabis-infused edibles; and State Flower a California-based cannabis producer operating a licensed cultivation facility in San Francisco.
The Company was listed on the Canadian Stock Exchange effective May 3, 2017, having the ticker symbol TER and effective October 22, 2018, the Company began trading on OTCQX under the ticker symbol TRSSF. The Company’s registered office is located at PO Box 43125, Mississauga, Ontario, L5C 1W2.
2. Basis of presentation
(a) Statement of compliance
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 of the Company were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The Company followed the same accounting policies and methods of application as those disclosed in the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2020 audited annual consolidated financial statements and were authorized for issue by the Board of the Directors on August 18, 2021.
(b) Basis of measurement
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis which assumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. In accordance with the going concern basis, these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value and biological assets that are measured at fair value less costs to sell, as detailed in the Company’s accounting policies.
(c) Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of the Company and its Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar (“CAD”). The functional currency of the Company’s US subsidiaries is the US dollar (“USD”). The Company’s presentation currency is in USD. All amounts are presented in USD unless otherwise specified. Certain items presented in these financial statements are expressed in Canadian dollars (“CAD”) and are identified as such.
Change in presentation currency
On March 31, 2021, the Company changed its presentation currency from the CAD to USD to better reflect the Company’s business activities (Note 23). In making this change in presentation currency to USD, the Company followed the guidance in IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates and have applied the change retrospectively as if the new presentation currency had always been the Company’s presentation currency, as follows:

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020
(Amounts expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except for per share amounts)
2. Basis of presentation (continued)
-
Assets and liabilities have been translated into USD at the rate of exchange prevailing at the respective reporting dates;
-
The statements of loss and comprehensive loss were translated at the average exchange rates for the respective reporting periods, or at the exchange rates prevailing at the applicable transaction date;
-
Equity transactions have been translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transactions; and
-
Exchange differences arising on translation were recorded in cumulative translation adjustment in shareholders’ equity.
(d) Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly and indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity and be exposed to the variable returns from its activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
All intercompany balances and transactions were eliminated on consolidation.
(e) Use of significant estimates and judgments
The preparation of unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are consistent with those disclosed in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
3. Significant accounting policies
The same accounting policies are applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as those disclosed in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
New standards, amendments and interpretations adopted
All recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to have a material effect on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

5. Acquisitions
Acquisition of KCR
Upon the acquisition of Ilera on September 16, 2019, the Company acquired a $1,000 investment in GuadCo LLC and KCR Holdings LLC (collectively “KCR”). KCR holds a permit from the Pennsylvania Department of Health which grants the right to operate three dispensaries in the state of Pennsylvania. The Company’s investment represented a 10% equity share in KCR. The Company had significant influence over KCR as the Company’s Ilera business supplies a significant portion of inventory, and therefore, the investment in KCR was accounted for using the equity method and was included in investment in associate on the Company’s Statement of Financial Position. The acquisition was adjusted for earnings and cash distributions. On April 30, 2021, the investment had a carrying value of $1,223. The fair value of the investment on April 30, 2021 was estimated to be $7,101, which was implied based on the overall purchase price. A gain of $5,878 was recorded as an unrealized gain on investment in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.
On April 30, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 90% of equity of KCR for total consideration of $69,847, comprised of $34,427 in common shares, $20,506 in cash, $7,101 related to the fair value of previously owned shares, and a $6,750 note which bears 10.0% annual interest, due April 2022. The transaction added three retail dispensaries located in Bethlehem, Allentown and Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania to complement the Company’s existing retail footprint in Southeastern Pennsylvania. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination as KCR met the definition of a business combination under IFRS 3, Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”).
The Company will pay up to $6,300 in shares if (i) within two years of the closing date, legislation is enacted into law by the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which permits the cultivation, processing and/or sale of adult use cannabis; and (ii) the legislation provides that any Pennsylvania medical marijuana dispensary permit holder existing on the date of enactment of the legislation may be issued an additional adult-use dispensing organization permit (or similar permit) to operate at least three locations to serve adult use purchasers in Pennsylvania; and (iii) if as a result of the legislation, within three years of the date the legislation is enacted and effective, the Company commences retail sales at an additional two dispensaries under, through or on account of the GuadCo license or any other Pennsylvania license acquired from a third-party after the closing date. The total value of the potential purchase consideration payable by the Company under the terms of the agreement is approximately $75,084, and the fair value of the contingent consideration was $1,063 at acquisition.
On a standalone basis, had the Company acquired the business on January 1, 2021, sales estimates would have been $22,907 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and net income estimates would have been $3,978.

Contingent consideration
Contingent consideration recorded relates to the Company’s business acquisitions. Contingent consideration is based upon the potential earnout of the underlying business unit and is measured at fair value using a projection model for the business and the formulaic structure for determining the consideration under the terms of the agreement. The determination of the fair value of the contingent consideration payable is primarily based on the Company’s expectations of the amount of revenue to be achieved by the underlying business units within a specified time period based on the agreement. Refer to Note 22 for further discussion surrounding the fair value of the contingent consideration.
The balance of contingent consideration is as follows:
| KCR Carrying amount, December 31, 2019 $ — Amount recognized on acquisition of State Flower — |

6. Biological assets
The Company’s biological assets consist of 81,943 cannabis plants at September 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020 - 91,080). The reconciliation of biological assets is as follows:
| September 30, 2021 | December 31, 2020* | |
|---|---|---|
| Opening amount | $17,816 | $4,222 |
| Increasein fairvalue due to biologicaltransformation | 75,789 | 81,225 |
| Additions onbusiness acquisitions | 936 | 61 |
| Capitalized costs | 17,551 | 16,649 |
| Transferred toinventories upon harvest | (99,514) | (84,766) |
| Effect of movements in foreign exchange | — | 425 |
| Ending balance | $12,578 | $17,816 |
The fair value measurements for biological assets have been categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to the valuation technique used. The fair value was determined using an expected cash flow model which assumes the biological assets at the balance sheet date will grow to maturity, be harvested and converted into finished goods inventory and sold in the retail recreational or medical cannabis market. 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 the flowering stage to the point of harvest and assumes that the value of clones is nominal. The Company also deducts a distribution margin of 10% along with the excise and cultivation tax when estimating the fair value of biological assets.
The Company’s estimates, by their nature, are subject to changes that could result from volatility of market prices, unanticipated regulatory changes, harvest yields, loss of crops, changes in estimates and other uncontrollable factors that could significantly affect the future fair value of biological assets.

| Estimated selling price (pergram) | $3.96 | $4.59 |
| Post-harvest cost to complete and sell (per gram) | $0.18 | $0.25 |
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 in future periods.
The following table presents the potential effect of a 10% change on the fair valuation of biological assets at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 which would be reported as part of the gross profit (loss) on the statement of loss and comprehensive loss:
| 10% change at | 10% change at |

7. Inventory (continued)
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, management wrote down its inventory by $1,087 (September 30, 2020- $100) related to unsaleable disposable vape pens with faulty batteries as well as inventory in Canada deemed unsaleable.
The inventory change is mainly due to an increase in distillate being held for the processing of manufactured products in Pennsylvania. In addition, in New Jersey, the Company has made a strategic decision to build up inventory for its own dispensaries in advance of expected adult-use transition.
The inventory acquired through business combinations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is $4,776.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company capitalized $7,500 related to two success fees payable to an entity controlled by the minority shareholders of TerrAscend NJ. The first success fee payment of $3,750 was due upon TerrAscend NJ being granted an alternative treatment center license in the state of New Jersey. The first success fee payment was settled in shares on March 25, 2020 at a fair value determined on the date TerrAscend NJ received the license. The second success fee payment of $3,750 was due upon TerrAscend NJ making its first sale of medical cannabis to a patient in compliance with the New Jersey Compassionate Use Marijuana Act, which occurred during the fourth quarter of 2020. On July 16, 2021, the Company amended the original agreement and will now make the second success fee payment on the earlier of (i) March 31, 2023, and (ii) fifteen days after TerrAscend NJ shall have made distributions to one or more of its members totaling at least $15,000 in aggregate. The second success fee payment is included in other non-current liabilities at September 30, 2021. The payments were capitalized as an intellectual property intangible asset as costs to obtain the ATC license. The useful life of the assets is based on the ATC license.
At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there were events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that a Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) or group of CGUs were impaired. The Company considers external and internal factors, including overall financial performance and relevant entity-specific factors, as part of this assessment.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company made the decision to undertake a strategic review process to explore, review, and evaluate potential alternatives for its Arise business. The Company also determined that the estimated future cash flows for the business did not support the carrying value of the intangible assets and goodwill, and therefore the intangible assets and goodwill were written down to $nil. The Company recorded impairment of goodwill of $5,007 and impairment of intangible assets of $3,633.

If the Company completes a qualified financing for gross proceeds in excess of $30,000 at a price that in the good faith determination of the Company’s board of directors is less than the average price paid in the private placement, the Company’s board of directors may increase the conversion ratio of the preferred shares to an amount that it considers equitable in the circumstances to provide equivalent value to participants in the private placement. This price protection will be in effect until May 22, 2021.
Each warrant can be used to acquire one preferred share at an exercise price of $3,000, subject to customary antidilution provisions. Warrants have a term of 3 years and can be exercised cashless.

Stock Options
The Company’s Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) effective March 8, 2017 provides for the granting of stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. Share options are granted for a term not to exceed ten years at an exercise price, which is the greater of the closing market price of the shares on the CSE on the trading day immediately preceding the date the options are granted and on the same day of the option grant, in accordance with CSE policy. The options are not transferrable. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, which determines individual eligibility under the Plan, number of shares reserved for optioning to each individual (not to exceed 5% of issued and outstanding shares to any one individual) and the vesting period. The maximum number of shares of the Company that are issuable pursuant to the Plan is limited to 10% of the fully diluted shares of the Company as at the date of the grant of options.
The stock options outstanding noted below consist of service-based options granted to employees, directors, officers, and consultants to purchase common stock, which vest over a one to four-year period and have a five to ten-year expiry term. These awards are subject to the risk of forfeiture until vested by virtue of continued employment or service to the Company.
The fair value of the various stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: Stock price volatility – 81.51% (September 30, 2020- 83.00%); risk-free interest rate – 0.90% to 1.46% (September 30, 2020- 0.35%); dividend yield – 0% (September 30, 2020- 0%); forfeiture rate – 23.21% (September 30, 2020- 26.1%); and expected lives – 4.57 to 10.00 years (September 30, 2020- 4.78 to 5.31 years). The expected volatility of the Company’s equity instruments was estimated based on the historical volatility.

As the operations of the Company are predominantly US based, the Company has prepared the tax rate table for nine months ended September 30, 2021 using the US Federal tax rate of 21.0%. The Company’s combined Canadian federal and provincial statutory rates are at 26.5% (September 30, 2020 – 26.5%).
As many of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries operate in the cannabis industry and are subject to the limitations of the United States Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 280E, the impact results in a permanent tax difference as a disallowed tax deduction. Therefore, the US effective tax rate can be highly variable and may not necessarily correlate with pre-tax income or loss due to the material impact of Section 280E. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was reduced by a $3,908 recovery resulting from the Apothecarium tax audit settlement for tax years ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2015 and statute expirations. A corresponding reduction to the indemnification asset related to the Apothecarium tax audit settlement and statute expirations in the amount of $3,891 is included in finance and other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

16. Income taxes (continued)
The Company’s current tax liability of $10,924 as of September 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020 – $27,739) includes a liability related to the application of IRC Section 280E prior to the acquisition of Apothecarium by the Company. Under Section 280E, all ordinary and necessary business deductions are disallowed if the taxpayer’s trade or business is “trafficking” in a Schedule I or II Controlled Substance under the Controlled Substances Act. Cannabis remains a Schedule I controlled substance. While the Company cannot predict the outcome and timing of these matters, it has recorded a liability of $4,581 related to the pre-acquisition periods of Apothecarium as of September 30, 2021 (December 31, 2020- $11,500). On the acquisition of the Apothecarium, the seller set aside cash in an escrow account to be used on future tax indemnifications. As of September 30, 2021, an indemnification asset of $4,581 (December 31, 2020 - $11,500), has been recorded on the statement of financial position.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020
(Amounts expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except for per share amounts)
22. Financial instruments and risk management (continued)
There were no transfers between the levels of fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 or the year ended December 31, 2020.
The carrying values of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost approximate their fair values due to their short periods to maturity.
Fair Value of Warrant and Derivative Liabilities
The preferred share warrant liability has been remeasured to fair value at September 30, 2021 using the Black Scholes model. In addition, warrants were exercised during the quarter. The combined impact resulted in a gain of fair value of warrants of $43,715 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 related to the warrant liability of the USD denominated Preferred Share Warrants described in Note 13 .
Key inputs and assumptions used in the Black Scholes valuation at September 30, 2021 were as follows:
| September 30, 2021 | |
|---|---|
| CommonStock Price of TerrAscend Corp. | $7.04 |
| Warrant exercise price | $3,000 |
| Warrant conversion ratio | 1,000 |
| Annualvolatility | 63.9% |
| Annual risk-freerate | 0.3% |
| Term | 1.64 years |
Contingent Consideration Payable
Note 5 Acquisitions describes the nature of contingent consideration liabilities. The fair value of contingent consideration at September 30, 2021 was determined using a probability weighted model based on the likelihood of achieving certain revenue and EBITDA scenario outcomes. A discount rate of 12.2% (December 31, 2020 – 12.3% to 12.9%) was utilized to determine the present value of the liabilities, resulting in a loss on revaluation of contingent consideration of $2,652 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 (September 30, 2020- $14,667).
The illustrative variance of the total contingent consideration at September 30, 2021 based on reasonably possible changes to one of the significant unobservable inputs, holding other inputs constant, would have the following effects:
| Discount rate sensitivity | KCR |
|---|---|
| Increase100 basis points | $1,017 |
| Increase 50 basis points | 1,093 |
| Decrease 50 basis points | 1,138 |
| Decrease 100 basis points | 1,162 |
| Revenue sensitivity | State Flower |
|---|---|
| Increase100 basis points | $7,610 |
| Increase 50 basis points | 7,530 |
| Decrease 50 basis points | 7,390 |
| Decrease 100 basis points | 7,320 |
The contingent consideration for Ilera was calculated based on fiscal year 2019 and 2020 performance and the final earn out has been calculated as of September 30, 2021 (Note 5).

24. Commitments and Contingencies
On October 15, 2018, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary TerrAscend Canada entered into a multi-year cultivation agreement (the “PharmHouse Agreement”) with PharmHouse Inc. (“PharmHouse”), a joint venture between Canopy Rivers Inc. and 2615975 Ontario Inc., the operators of a leading North American greenhouse produce company (“261”). Under the terms of the PharmHouse Agreement, it was expected that PharmHouse would grow and supply cannabis to TerrAscend Canada from its existing 1.3 million square foot greenhouse located in Leamington, Ontario. Once fully licensed, the production of flower, trim and clones from up to 20% of the dedicated flowering space planted at the greenhouse was expected to be made available to TerrAscend Canada. To date, PharmHouse has not yet delivered product in accordance with the terms of the PharmHouse Agreement. On September 11, 2020, the Company and TerrAscend Canada were informed that a statement of claim was issued on August 31, 2020 in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice by 261 against Canopy Rivers Inc., Canopy Growth Corporation, the Company and TerrAscend Canada (the “261 Claim”). In the 261 Claim, 261 seeks damages from the defendants in the amount of $500 million and alleges certain causes of action, including bad faith, fraud, civil conspiracy, breach of the duty of honesty and good faith in contractual relations and breach of fiduciary duty. The 261 Claim, as against the Company and TerrAscend Canada, is completely baseless and without merit, and the Company will vigorously defend itself, if necessary, in the appropriate forum. On September 16, 2020, PharmHouse obtained an order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granting PharmHouse creditor protection under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”). Pursuant to the CCAA order, the 261 Claim has been stayed. During a CCAA hearing in November, 261 objected to the stay of the 261 Claim. The judge presiding over the CCAA process agreed to allow 261 to discontinue the 261 Claim against the defendants ‘without prejudice’ to its right to recommence the 261 Claim against all parties except PharmHouse Inc., provided that such recommenced claim can only be brought after January 1, 2021. This does not affect any of the defendants’ ability to move for a stay of the recommenced 261 Claim. On February 10, 2021, 261 served the Issuer and TerrAscend Canada with the recommenced 261 Claim. On March 11, 2021, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice approved a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) between the Company, TerrAscend Canada and PharmHouse. The Settlement Agreement provides that the Company make a one-time purchase of a specific quantity of cannabis that was grown under the PharmHouse Agreement for a set price per gram, and for a one-time cash payment to PharmHouse for full and final satisfaction of any claims or obligations between the Company, TerrAscend Canada and PharmHouse. Both payments are immaterial to the Company and the Company plans to monetize the purchased cannabis. The Settlement Agreement does not affect the recommenced 261 Claim issued on February 10, 2021, which the Company believes is completely baseless and without merit.
On October 20, 2018, Investments International Inc. (“Investments”) signed a lease agreement with the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, 2627685 Ontario Inc. and 2151924 Alberta Inc. On February 8, 2019, Investments filed a statement of claim under the Court of Alberta against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, for breach of the lease agreement. The amount claimed is $2,764 plus interest from and after the termination date of an unexecuted lease. The Company has paid initial lease deposits in addition to submitting a statement of defence. The Company does not expect the claim to have a material adverse impact on the Company and no amount has been accrued in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2021, there were no pending lawsuits other than those disclosed that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

25. Subsequent events
On November 12, 2021, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary WDB Holding MD, Inc. completed the acquisition of a property in Hagerstown, Maryland.

The value of Jason Ackerman’s interest in the transaction is $401, the value of Greg Rochlin’s interest in the transaction is $401, and the value of the interests of funds controlled directly or indirectly by Jason Wild in the transaction is $401.
