C21 Investments (CWLXF) grows revenue but posts Q3 2025 net loss
C21 Investments Inc. reports Q3 results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, showing modest growth but continued net losses. Quarterly revenue reached $8.14 million, up from $7.91 million a year earlier, driven mainly by Nevada retail sales and the new South Reno dispensary. For the nine-month period, revenue rose to $25.16 million from $22.01 million, while income from operations improved to $1.79 million from $0.44 million.
Despite stronger operations, heavy interest, accretion, and especially income taxes kept the company in the red, with a Q3 net loss of $0.61 million and a nine-month loss of $1.86 million. The effective tax rate reached 299% year-to-date due to U.S. cannabis tax rules, and an uncertain tax position was recorded. C21 generated $0.96 million of operating cash from continuing operations over nine months and ended with cash of $2.42 million and a working capital surplus of $2.01 million.
During the period, C21 closed a $3.5 million South Reno dispensary asset acquisition funded by a C$4 million convertible debenture financing, expanded its Nevada lease portfolio, and continued normal course issuer bid share repurchases. It also settled long-running Eco Firma Farms litigation with a $2.4 million cash obligation and agreement to issue 555,793 shares, offset by extinguishing $1.77 million of related liabilities.
Positive
- Revenue and operating income growth: Nine-month revenue increased to $25.16 million from $22.01 million, while income from operations improved to $1.79 million from $0.44 million, indicating stronger underlying performance.
- Consistent positive cash flow: Continuing operations generated $959,966 in operating cash over nine months, and free cash flow remained positive after relatively low capital expenditures.
- Expansion of Nevada retail footprint: The $3.5 million South Reno dispensary acquisition and opening of a third Silver State Relief store added new retail capacity with growing monthly sales.
- Balance sheet improvement: The company moved from a working capital deficiency of $452,928 at March 31, 2025 to a $2,007,350 surplus at December 31, 2025, supported by cash flow and debt repayments.
Negative
- Persistent net losses despite growth: C21 posted a Q3 net loss of $610,740 and a nine‑month loss of $1,856,215, extending its accumulated deficit to $78,677,158.
- Very high tax burden: Income tax expense of $2,775,700 on $927,869 of pre‑tax income produced a 299% effective tax rate, significantly eroding profitability.
- Cash obligations from litigation settlement: The $2,400,000 Eco Firma Farms settlement requires an initial $500,000 payment and 19 monthly $100,000 installments, creating sizable near‑term cash commitments.
- Lease and related‑party exposure: Total undiscounted lease liabilities are $15,373,039, including substantial payments to entities controlled by the CEO, adding fixed obligations and concentration of counterparty risk.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
(Unaudited - Expressed in U.S. dollars, except as noted)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
C21 Investments Inc. (the "Company" or "C21") was incorporated January 15, 1987, under the Company Act of British Columbia. The Company is a publicly traded company with its registered office is 170-601 West Cordova Street, Vancouver, BC, V6B 1G1. The Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol CXXI and on the OTCQB® Venture Market under the symbol CXXIF.
The Company is a cannabis operator in Nevada, USA and is engaged in the cultivation of and manufacturing of cannabis flower products, vape products and extract products for wholesale and retail sales. The Company initially had operations in the state of Oregon. During the year ended January 31, 2022, the Company made a strategic decision to cease operations in Oregon. The results of the Company's Oregon operations are presented as discontinued operations.
As at December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital surplus of $2,007,350 (March 31, 2025 - working capital deficiency of $452,928) and an accumulated deficit of $78,677,158 (March 31, 2025 - $76,820,943). During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company generated $959,966 in cash from operating activities, compared to $836,012 during the same period in 2024.
At the federal level, cannabis currently remains a Schedule I controlled substance under the Federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970. Under U.S. federal law, a Schedule I drug or substance has a high potential for abuse, no accepted medical use in the United States, and a lack of accepted safety for the use of the drug under medical supervision. As such, even in those states in which marijuana is legalized under state law, the manufacture, importation, possession, use or distribution of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law. This has created a dichotomy between state and federal law, whereby many states have elected to regulate and remove state-level penalties regarding a substance which is still illegal at the federal level. There remains uncertainty about the US federal government's position on cannabis with respect to cannabis-legal status. A change in its enforcement policies could impact the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
a) Basis of presentation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 ("consolidated financial statements") are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical costs, except for certain financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due.
Failure to arrange adequate financing on acceptable terms and/or achieve profitability may have an adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, cash flows and prospects of the Company. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments to assets or liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.
b) Functional and reporting currency
The functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars ("C$"), and the functional currency of the Company's subsidiaries is U.S. dollars ("US$"). C21 has determined that the US$ is the most relevant and appropriate reporting currency as the Company's operations are conducted in US$ and its financial results are prepared and reviewed internally by management in US$. The consolidated financial statements are presented in US$ unless otherwise noted.
c) Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the accounts of the Company and all the entities in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. All consolidated entities were under common control during the entirety of the periods for which their respective results of operations were included in the consolidated statements from the date of acquisition. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 as of April 1, 2025. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements and disclosures.
a) Significant accounting judgement, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments.
Areas requiring a significant degree of judgement and estimation relate to the assessment of the transactions as business combinations or asset acquisitions, the determination of recoverability of goodwill, recoverability of intangible assets, fair value less costs to sell of assets classified as held for sale, estimates used in valuation and costing of inventory, impairment of long-lived assets and inventory, fair value measurements, useful lives, depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, share-based compensation, and fair value of derivative liability.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2024-03 ("ASU 2024-03"), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosure (Subtopic 220-40): update required disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company has not early adopted this standard. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this amendment.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-05, Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The objective of this update is to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the current expected credit loss model (CECL) to short-term accounts receivable and contract assets. ASU 2025-05 addresses these challenges by introducing a practical expedient that allows entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change over the remaining life of the asset. ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that adoption of this amendment will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
4. ACQUISITION
On June 7, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of a 6,500 square-foot, purpose-built, operational retail cannabis dispensary located in South Reno, Nevada. The dispensary acquisition was completed pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement with Deep Roots Harvest, Inc. The acquisition involved the purchase of certain assets including applicable licenses. The purchase price in connection with the dispensary acquisition was $3,500,000 paid in cash to Deep Roots Harvest, Inc. on June 7, 2024. On June 26, 2024, the South Reno dispensary opened for business under the Silver State branding.
The acquisition of the new dispensary is accounted for as an asset acquisition due to the absence of identifiable processes and the inability of the acquired assets alone to operate as a business. The allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets is as follows:
| $ | |||
| Total consideration transferred | 3,500,000 | ||
| Assets acquired: | |||
| Property and equipment | 86,353 | ||
| Licenses | 3,413,647 | ||
| 3,500,000 |
Acquired property and equipment consisted of fixtures and leasehold improvements and have an assessed useful life of 5 years. Licenses consist of two licenses which permit the Company to sell retail cannabis products in the State of Nevada and City of Reno, respectively. The licenses each have a useful life of 10 years.
5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Oregon reporting unit
As a result of non-profitable operations in the Oregon reporting unit, the Company began to wind down operations in Oregon beginning in the year ended January 31, 2021. By January 31, 2022, the Company made the decision to cease all growing, manufacturing, and processing activities in Bend, Oregon. As the Oregon reporting unit comprised the assets of multiple components in distinct geographic locations, management completed the sale on a piecemeal basis. By March 31, 2024, the Company's remaining assets and liabilities held for sale consisted of a building and associated mortgage. The mortgage carried a fixed interest rate of 4.5% and required monthly payments. On December 10, 2024, the Company paid out the remaining mortgage balance of $371,089. As such, net loss from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 contains no activity related to the mortgage. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024, interest expense on the mortgage was $4,237 and $12,933 and repayments totaled $11,388 and $34,164 respectively.

Each stock option entitles the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of C$0.53, expiring on May 13, 2027. Of the options granted, one-third vests immediately, with the remaining two-thirds vesting in equal parts every twelve months thereafter. The fair value of these options was $1,129,810 (C$1,544,676).
A summary of the Company's stock options outstanding and exercisable as at December 31, 2025, is as follows:
| Expiry date | Exercise price | Number of options outstanding |
Number of options exercisable |
Weighted average remaining life |
||||||||
| C$ | # | # | Years | |||||||||
| May 13, 2027 | 0.53 | 5,425,000 | 3,616,667 | 1.36 |
As at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, outstanding and exercisable stock options had intrinsic values of $nil and $nil, respectively.
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense on vesting of stock options of $49,817 and $194,211 (2024 - $143,493 and $712,802).
The Company used the following inputs in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of options granted during the year ended March 31, 2025:
| Stock price | C$0.53 | ||
| Exercise price | C$0.53 | ||
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.37% | ||
| Expected life | 2.00 years | ||
| Expected volatility | 100.09% | ||
| Expected annual dividend yield | 0.00% |
For non-employee options, the expected term is the contractual life, while for employees and directors, it is the estimated period the options are expected to be outstanding, using the 'simplified' method for 'plain vanilla' employee options. Expected volatility is based on historical volatilities of similarly positioned public companies over a period equivalent to the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the Treasury zero-coupon bond yields with a term matching the expected life of the options.

17. SEGMENTED INFORMATION
The Company defines its major geographic operating segments as Oregon and Nevada. Due to the ever-present jurisdictional cannabis compliance issues in the industry, each state operation is by nature operationally segmented.
The CODM is the Company's CEO, Sonny Newman. The CODM's review consists of revenue, cost of sales, and gross profit as the primary measures of segment performance. The CODM reviews key categories of operating expenses including general and administration expenses, sales, marketing, and promotion expenses, and operating lease costs. The Corporate segment does not conduct income generating activities and its results are reviewed for cost management. As the Company continues to expand via acquisition, the segmented information will expand based on management's agreed upon allocation of costs beyond gross margin.

20. EARNINGS PER SHARE
A summary of the Company's calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:
| Nine months ended December 31, |
||||||
| 2025 | 2024 | |||||
| $ | $ | |||||
| Net loss from continuing operations after income taxes | (1,847,831 | ) | (2,227,144 | ) | ||
| Net loss from discontinued operations after income taxes | (8,384 | ) | (161,101 | ) | ||
| Net loss | (1,856,215 | ) | (2,388,245 | ) | ||
| Weighted average number of common shares outstanding | 117,874,964 | 120,047,814 | ||||
| Dilutive effect of commitment to issue shares | 555,793 | 793,093 | ||||
| Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding | 118,430,757 | 120,840,907 | ||||
| Basic and diluted loss per share, continuing operations | (0.02 | ) | (0.02 | ) | ||
| Basic and diluted loss per share, discontinued operations | (0.00 | ) | (0.00 | ) | ||
| Basic and diluted loss per share | (0.02 | ) | (0.02 | ) | ||
The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of warrants and stock options when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the respective warrant or stock option and when inclusion of these amounts would be anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the number of warrants excluded from the computation was 4,000,000 and 4,000,000, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the number of outstanding stock options excluded from the computation was 5,425,000 (exercisable - 3,616,667) and 6,025,000 (exercisable - 2,408,333) respectively. In addition, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the potential issuance of 1,207,200 remaining earn out shares (Note 14) as the market price of the common shares has not been high enough to trigger an earn out event.
21. SETTLEMENT OF LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On September 4, 2025, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the "EFF Settlement Agreement") with respect to certain actions filed in the Oregon State Circuit Court for Clackamas County and the Oregon Court of Appeals by two owners (each, a "Vendor") of Proudest Monkey Holdings, LLC ("Proudest Monkey"), an entity that was previously the sole owner of EFF (the "Oregon Actions") and an action filed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by Proudest Monkey and one of its owners (the "BC Action", and together with the Oregon Actions, the "Litigation"). The Company acquired all the membership units of EFF from Proudest Monkey pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated January 19, 2018 (the "EFF Agreement").
Pursuant to the Oregon Actions, two Vendors made claims related to contract, employment and statutory damages against the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries 320204 US Holdings Corp, EFF, Swell Companies Limited, and Phantom Brands LLC,
and three directors, two officers, and one former employee of the Company. The Company alleged breach and default under the EFF Agreement in connection with certain conduct by the Vendors which occurred prior to and after the completion of the acquisition of EFF. As a result, the Company withheld issuing certain equity consideration payable to the Vendors pursuant to the terms of the EFF Agreement, as a result of which Proudest Monkey and one of the Vendors launched the BC Action, to which the Company filed counterclaims.
In addition to such other terms and conditions as agreed to among the parties, pursuant to the EFF Settlement Agreement, the parties to the Litigation agreed to (a) fully and finally settle all claims between them, have each action dismissed with respect to all remaining claims on a with prejudice basis and to mutually release each other from all claims asserted in the BC Action and Oregon Actions, (b) the Company agreed to pay to the plaintiffs under the Litigation (the "Plaintiffs") the total cash sum of $2,400,000 (the "Settlement Amount") as follows: (i) $500,000 payable on or before September 12, 2025 (the "Initial Payment Date") (paid); (ii) $100,000 per month payable over a period of 19 months commencing one month after the Initial Payment Date ($300,000 paid to December 31, 2025), and (c) pursuant to the terms of the EFF Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to certain of the Vendors an aggregate of 555,793 (reduced from 793,093) common shares of the Company (the "Share Consideration").

21. SETTLEMENT OF LEGAL PROCEEDINGS (continued)
The Settlement resulted in the cash liability in respect of the payment of the Settlement Amount being offset by the extinguishment of convertible notes of $1,156,259 and the accounts payable Litigation related accrual of $612,500. The recognition of the $2,400,000 settlement liability, extinguishment of liabilities totaling $1,768,759, and reduction of the commitment to issue shares possessing a value of $188,698 (C$260,950) resulted in a loss on settlement of legal proceedings of $442,543. The Share Consideration remains unpaid as of the date of the consolidated financial statements.

| Effective tax rate | 372% | 113% | 299% | -623% | ||||||||
The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and Canada. The Company has computed its provision for income taxes based on the actual effective tax rate for the quarter as management believes this is the best estimate for the annual effective tax rate. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's uncertain tax position and determining the provision for income taxes.
23. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A summary of the Company's financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss and their classification in the fair value hierarchy is as follows:

The fair value of the derivative liability associated with the earn out shares was derived using a Monte Carlo simulation using non-observable inputs and therefore represents a Level 3 measurement.
24. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
During January 2026, the Company repurchased 51,500 common shares under its Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB) program through open market transactions. The shares were acquired at an average price of $0.30 (CAD $0.40) per share, for a total cost of $15,242 (CAD $20,600). The repurchased shares were subsequently cancelled. The NCIB program as authorised under Form 17A, allows the Company to repurchase up to 5,898,596 common shares, and as of February 10, 2026, 5,847,096 shares remain available for repurchase under the program.

The Company will also issue 555,793 shares in share consideration (which was recorded in 2018 as a commitment to issue shares).
- The Company has taken the position that it does not owe taxes attributable to the application of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, including the planned refiling of amended U.S. federal income tax returns in the next few months. The refiling of tax returns will be for the years ended January 31, 2022, January 31, 2023, January 31, 2024, and the two months ended March 31, 2024, based on legal interpretations that challenge its tax liability under Section 280E of the Code. Management exercises significant judgment when assessing the probability of successfully sustaining the Company's tax filing positions, and in determining whether a contingent tax liability should be recorded and, if so, estimating the amount. See disclosure of Risks Factors later in this document.
- On February 19, 2025 the Company announced that it has completed a repurchase for cancellation of 2,051,000 of its common shares (the "Purchased Shares"), representing approximately 1.7% of the outstanding common shares ("Common Shares") of the Company, in a private transaction (the "Transaction"). The Purchased Shares were repurchased at a discount to the closing price of the Company's shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") on February 14, 2025. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. "We are pleased to announce the purchase for cancellation of over 2 million outstanding Common Shares of C21 as we believe our current market valuation does not reflect the inherent value of our company given our growth trend, and proven track record of generating free cashflow over the last 5 years. Consistent with our strategy, this transaction represents the Company once again taking advantage of an opportunity that we believe will be accretive to our shareholders, " said Sonny Newman, Chief Executive Officer. "We continue to strive to be thoughtful stewards of capital and remain focused on pursuing additional accretive growth opportunities."
- On November 26, 2024 the Company announced that it intends to commence a normal course issuer bid (NCIB) under which it may purchase up to 6,002,390 common shares of the Company representing approximately 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. The Company may purchase common shares for a period of 12 months ending on December 2, 2025. All shares will be purchased on the open market at the prevailing market prices. The Company has not repurchased any shares to date.
- On June 26, 2024, the Company opened the South Reno Dispensary, its third Silver State Relief retail store in Nevada. Sales from this new store have grown from $1,090,000 in Q2 to $1,475,000 in Q3. The Google rating of the new store continues to be excellent at 4.8 (out of 5) with 82 reviews. This is particularly gratifying to the Silver State team.
- On June 7, 2024, the Company closed the acquisition of a cannabis dispensary in Reno, Nevada from Deep Roots Harvest. The Company acquired all the assets related to the operation of its 6,500 square foot, purpose-built, operational retail cannabis dispensary located in South Reno Nevada (the "South Reno Dispensary"). This acquisition will allow C21 to expand its retail footprint in Nevada, a pivotable step in its growth strategy. This store is being integrated and rebranded under the Silver State Relief banner. President and CEO of C21, Sonny Newman commented: "With the dispensary's desirable location in a high traffic, flourishing area of South Reno, we anticipate strong revenue growth from this acquisition, along with the added benefit of allowing us to expand the portion of our cultivation capacity sold through our retail channel."
p.3
- On May 6, 2024, the Company closed a private placement of C$4 million from the issuance of convertible debentures units (the "May 2024 Private Placement"). The proceeds will be used to fund the acquisition of the South Reno Dispensary. The convertible debenture units are comprised of a "Convertible Debenture" convertible into common shares at C$0.45, and a "Warrant" entitling the holder to exercise into common shares at C$0.55. The maximum shares issuable from the Convertible Debenture is 8,888,889 common shares, and from the Warrant, 4,000,000 common shares. The outstanding principal amount owing under the Convertible Debenture will accrue interest from the issue date at 12% per annum payable quarterly in cash. Repayment of the Convertible Debenture will be made in 25 equal monthly installments beginning on the last day of the 6th month from issuance. The Convertible Debenture matures 30 months after issuance. See the news release and public filings of this issuance for further information.
The Company's strategic Initiatives over the next 12 months include: (i) extending our Nevada retail footprint where we have a proven track record of success and (ii) continuing our disciplined approach to growth and financing.
As the Company has discontinued its Oregon operations, the discussion in this MD&A focusses primarily on the Company's Nevada operations.
NEVADA
The Company acquired Silver State Relief and Silver State Cultivation ("Silver State") on January 1, 2019. The Nevada business operates in Reno, Sparks and Fernley, Nevada.
Cultivation, Processing and Wholesale
Through Silver State in Nevada, the Company operates its indoor cultivation and processing out of a 104,000 square foot facility now with 37,000 square feet of cultivation and 1,200 square feet dedicated to volatile extraction. Silver State completed a $3 million expansion of its grow facility in April 2022, more than doubling capacity to 11,500 pounds of biomass with 8,100 pounds of flower and 3,300 pounds of trim annually.
The Company's extraction processing supports branded CPG in both captive retail and wholesale channels. Silver State manufactures Hood Oil cartridges, Phantom Farms pre-rolls, and flower strains, together with the Silver State branded products which include Flower, pre-rolls, and concentrates. These in-house brands make up 26% of sales in the dispensaries. With the addition of our third dispensary, more production has been allocated to our own stores, and wholesale sales fell to $1.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2025 ($3.0 million in year ended January 31, 2024).
Retail
The Company operates three dispensaries with the acquisition of the third, the South Reno Dispensary, finalized on June 7, 2024, with its grand opening occurring on June 26, 2024. It is a 6,500 square foot, purpose-built, retail cannabis dispensary. With the dispensary's desirable location in a high traffic, flourishing area of Southern Reno, the Company anticipates strong revenue growth from this acquisition, along with the added benefit of allowing it to expand the portion of its cultivation capacity sell through.
Our two established stores, an 8,000-square foot retail dispensary, located in Sparks, Nevada, and a 6,000-square foot dispensary located in Fernley, Nevada. Silver State Relief had total retail sales of $28.7 million during the year ended March 31, 2025 as compared to $25.3 million in the year ended January 31, 2024. The three stores now collectively service a total of more than 180,000 recreational and medical cannabis customers per quarter, with over 700 SKUs in each store.

"Revenue" includes retail revenues from our three stores and wholesale revenue from our cultivation operations. The Q3 total revenues were up 3% at $8.1 million versus the Prior Year Quarter of $7.9 million and decreased by 4% sequentially from the Prior Quarter of $8.5 million. Retail revenues in Q3 were $7.9 million, up 4% versus Prior Year Quarter of $7.6 million, and down sequentially 4% versus Prior Quarter of $8.2 million. Wholesale revenues in Q3 of $0.29 million were down on the Prior Year Quarter of $0.33 million and up sequentially on the Prior Quarter of $0.27 million.
The increases in retail revenue are due to the third Silver State Relief dispensary starting operations on June 26, 2024. Monthly revenues for this new South Reno Store have ramped up from $273,000 in July 2024 to an average of over $600,000 monthly.
"Cost of Sales" includes the costs directly attributable to cultivating and processing cannabis plus the cost of product purchases from third parties, for sale in our stores. We use an average costing model which captures and averages costs over several quarters.
"Gross profit" Q3 gross profit margin % has decreased to 38.2% from 46.0% in the Prior Year Quarter and decreased sequentially from 50.4% in the Prior Quarter. The decrease sequentially reflects decreased margins in Q3 and seasonal factors and weakness in the markets.
p.5
"Income from operations" for Q3 is $0.4 million down versus the Prior Year Quarter of $1.0 million and down sequentially versus Prior Quarter $1.2 million. This decrease is due to the decrease in gross profit.
Expenses
"General and administration" includes all overhead costs that have not otherwise been allocated to cost of sales. These include salaries and wages, professional fees including legal and accounting, insurance and some local taxes. Q3 costs of $2.0 million was up versus the Prior Year Quarter of $1.8 million, and down $286,166 versus the Prior Quarter.
"Operating lease cost" is the cost of leases not included in cost of sales and was $208,605 for Q3 versus $208,605 in Prior Year Quarter.
"Depreciation and amortization" include provisions for fixed assets and intangibles not included in cost of sales. The total depreciation and amortization in Q3 was $0.44 million versus $0.45 million in the Prior Year Quarter.
"Share based compensation" is a non-cash item and reflects the issuance of stock options to employees, officers, and directors. This expense of $49,817 in Q3 is down from $143,493 in the Prior Year Quarter due to the vesting of most of the costs of the last option issuance.
Other Items
"Interest expense" in Q3 was $41,525 versus $82,953 in the Prior Year Quarter. This interest is for the Convertible Debentures issued during the Quarter ending June 30, 2024. The reduction in costs is due to the continued paydown of the principal of the convertible debentures.
"Accretion expense" in Q3 was $84,620 versus $148,405 in the Prior Year Quarter. This accretion is due to the issuance of the C$4 million Convertible Debentures during the Quarter ending June 30, 2024.
"Change in fair value of derivative liabilities" is a periodic revaluation of the earn out shares outstanding to vendors of businesses purchased by the Company. These earn-out shares are revalued using a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value of this liability will increase with an increase in the stock price of the Company and vice versa. The change in fair value must be recorded through the Company's profit or loss statement. As a result, a share price increase period-over-period will result in a reduction in net income and vice versa. In February and March 2023, the Company entered into cancelation agreements with the majority of the Swell Vendors who had rights to Swell Earn-Out shares, canceling those rights for a one-time cash payment. Of the 6.0 million original Swell Earn-Out shares, 1.2 million remain outstanding which expire May 24, 2026. Of the original 10.5 million of earn out shares to both Phantom and Swell, 1.2 million remain.
"Provision for income taxes" in Q3 of $0.8 million is up versus Prior Year Quarter of $0.7 million due to accrual of penalties and interest accrued on the Uncertain tax position.
"Other comprehensive income (loss)," specifically the cumulative translation adjustment, comes about in GAAP when translating the balances between the parent company (investments made in C$) and the US subsidiaries (US$). These foreign exchange gains or losses at each reporting date result from the translation of C$ amounts to US$ (which is our reporting currency).
"Net income (loss) from discontinued operations" the Company has classified all of its Oregon operations to 'discontinued operations'. The revenues and expenses pertaining to the Oregon operations are shown in this line item. We have had no active business in Oregon since early 2022. The effect of this treatment is to lower our revenues (Q3 -$nil, Prior Year Quarter -$nil) and increase our gross profit (Q3-$nil, Prior Year Quarter -$nil) and decrease our income from operations and net income (Q3-$1,540, Prior Year Quarter- increase of $49,663). There is no effect of discontinuing the Oregon operations on our Nevada operations as the cannabis business in each state is unique and separate, which is due to the regulation of the cannabis industry. In the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2025 the Company sold the remaining real property in central and southern Oregon.

Operations
Inventory balance at December 31, 2025 has increased since June 30, 2024 mainly due to the opening of our third store, the South Reno dispensary on June 26, 2024.
Adjusted EBITDA for quarter ended December 31, 2025 decreased compared to the prior quarter ended December 31, 2024 due to decreased margins and to market weakening. See the previous page under "Gross Profit" and the discussion of general and administration expenses. Also see Non-GAAP measures below. Federal corporate income taxes are very high in the cannabis industry due to the restrictions of Section 280E of the tax code. Therefore, the measure of income before these taxes is a useful measure. In the table above we calculate income from continuing operations, adding back share-based compensation, in the Quarterly table above, as a useful measure.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
"Adjusted EBITDA" is supplemental, non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before depreciation and amortization, depreciation and interest in cost of sales, income taxes, and interest. Additionally, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA presented above excludes accretion, loss from discontinued operations, one-time transaction costs and all other non-cash items. The Company has presented "Adjusted EBITDA" because its management believes it is a useful measure for investors when assessing and considering the Company's continuing operations and prospects for the future. Furthermore, "Adjusted EBITDA" is a commonly used measurement in the financial community when evaluating the market value of similar companies. "Adjusted EBITDA" is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, and these metrics should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the measurement of the Company's performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. "Adjusted EBITDA," as calculated and reconciled in the table above, may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements used by other issuers and is not necessarily a measure of the Company's ability to fund its cash needs. Figures have been restated to match the current presentation.

"Free Cash Flow" is defined as Cash Provided by Operating Activities from Continuing Operations adding back income tax expense and before changes in working capital, minus capital expenditures. Management believes that Free Cash Flow, which measures our ability to generate cash from our continuing business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance. Free Cash Flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, consolidated net income as a measure of our performance and net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On September 4, 2025, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the "EFF Settlement Agreement") with respect to certain actions filed in the Oregon State Circuit Court for Clackamas County and the Oregon Court of Appeals by two owners (each, a "Vendor") of Proudest Monkey Holdings, LLC ("Proudest Monkey"), an entity that was previously the sole owner of Eco Firma Farms LLC ("EFF"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Oregon Actions") and an action filed in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by Proudest Monkey and one of its owners (the "BC Action", and together with the Oregon Actions, the "Litigation"). The Company acquired all the membership units of EFF from Proudest Monkey pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated January 19, 2018 (the "EFF Agreement").
Pursuant to the Oregon Actions, two Vendors made claims related to contract, employment and statutory damages against the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries 320204 US Holdings Corp, EFF, Swell Companies Limited, and Phantom Brands LLC, and three directors, two officers, and one former employee of the Company. The Company alleged breach and default under the EFF Agreement in connection with certain conduct by the Vendors which occurred prior to and after the completion of the acquisition of EFF. As a result, the Company withheld issuing certain equity consideration payable to the Vendors pursuant to the terms of the EFF Agreement, as a result of which Proudest Monkey and one of the Vendors launched the BC Action, to which the Company filed counterclaims.
p.9
In addition to such other terms and conditions as agreed to among the parties, pursuant to the EFF Settlement Agreement, the parties to the Litigation agreed to (a) fully and finally settle all claims between them, have each action dismissed with respect to all remaining claims on a with prejudice basis and to mutually release each other from all claims asserted in the BC Action and Oregon Actions, (b) the Company agreed to pay to the plaintiffs under the Litigation (the "Plaintiffs") the total cash sum of U.S.$2,400,000 (the "Settlement Amount") as follows: (i) US$500,000 payable on or before September 12, 2025 (the "Initial Payment Date"); and (ii) U.S.$100,000 per month payable over a period of 19 months commencing one month after the Initial Payment Date, and (c) pursuant to the terms of the EFF Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to certain of the Vendors an aggregate of 555,793 common shares of the Company (the "Share Consideration"). The Settlement will result in the cash liability in respect of the payment of the Settlement Amount being offset by the extinguishment of the U.S.$1,156,259 convertible notes accrual and U.S.$612,500 accounts payable Litigation related accrual. The Share Consideration remains unpaid as of the date of this Prospectus.
For a summary of the historical legal proceedings, please refer to the Company's MD&A for the years ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024 for detailed disclosure in this regard.

MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Company's financial statements and the other financial information included in this MD&A are the responsibility of the Company's management and have been examined and approved by the Board. The accompanying audited financial statements are prepared by management in accordance with GAAP, and include certain amounts based on management's best estimates using careful judgment. The selection of accounting principles and methods is management's responsibility.
Management recognizes its responsibility for conducting the Company's affairs in a manner that complies with the requirements of applicable laws and established financial standards and principles and maintains proper standards of conduct in its activities. The Board supervises the financial statements and other financial information through its audit committee, which is comprised of a majority of non-management directors.
p.10
The audit committee's role is to examine the financial statements and recommend that the Board approve them, to examine the internal control and information protection systems, and all other matters relating to the Company's accounting and finances. To do so, the Audit Committee meets annually with the external auditors, with or without the Company's management, to review their respective audit plans and discuss the results of their examination. The Audit Committee is responsible for recommending the appointment of the external auditors or the renewal of their engagement.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes of the Company, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:
CREDIT RISK
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts. The Company's cash is deposited in bank accounts held with a major bank in Canada, a credit union in Washington, Nevada and Colorado.
LIQUIDITY RISK
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management of the Company and the Board are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.
The Company's consolidated financial statements for nine and three months ended December 31, 2025 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue its operations and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
At December 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $2,418,561, a working capital surplus of $2,007,350.
The Company has generated significant positive cash flow for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024. The Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended December 31, 2025, shows cash flow from continuing operations of $1.0 million ($1.4 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, and $3.3 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024).
The Company acquired, for $3.5 million, a third retail dispensary as of June 7, 2024. This store located in South Reno, Nevada opened for business on June 26, 2024. The acquisition was paid for with cash on hand generated by the Company and a C$4.0 million financing completed in May 2024. The Company has commenced repaying C$160,000 per month plus interest on this debt. The Company is also making periodic payments against its corporate income tax payable, totaling $1.9 million in the nine months ending December 31, 2025.
The Company does not have any other significant capital expenditure plans in the next 12 months. We expect to continue to generate positive operations cash flow, and the addition of the third dispensary has improved our cash flow.
On September 4, 2025, the Company settled an outstanding lawsuit which includes a cash cost of $2.4 million payable over 19 months. This settlement eliminated payable amounts in current liabilities by $1.8 million. Additionally, as at December 31, 2025, the Company had current income taxes payable of $1,544,415, and an uncertain tax position of $11,988,073. See income tax discussion below. To manage liquidity risk, the Company endeavors to ensure it has sufficient cash resources to meet its financial obligations. The Company's ability to service its debt depends on sustaining the profitability of its operations and obtaining sufficient financing on acceptable terms.
p.11
There remains uncertainty about the U.S. federal government's position on cannabis with respect to cannabis-legal states. A change in its enforcement policies could impact the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and have a material adverse impact on the business.
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, especially given the uncertain interest rate environment since the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company is not subject to any interest rate volatility as its long-term debt instruments and convertible notes are carried at a fixed interest rate throughout their term.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company's objectives when managing its capital are to ensure there are enough capital resources to continue operating as a going concern and maintain the Company's ability to ensure sufficient levels of funding to support its ongoing operations and development. The purpose of these objectives is to provide continued returns and benefits to the Company's shareholders. The Company's capital structure includes items classified in debt and shareholders' equity.
The Board does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business considering changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the Company's underlying asset.
The Company works with its capital advisors, CB1 Capital based in New York, to identify the best strategic options to execute our corporate growth plans, as well as increasing financial flexibility in managing our debt.
U.S. INDUSTRY BACKGROUND AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND AND TRENDS
The emergence of the legal cannabis sector in the United States, both for medical and adult use, has been rapid as more states adopt regulations for its production and sale. Today 73% of Americans live in a state where cannabis is legal in some form and 48% of the population lives in states where it is fully legalized for adult use.
The use of cannabis and cannabis derivatives to treat or alleviate the symptoms of a wide variety of chronic conditions has been generally accepted by a majority of citizens with a growing acceptance by the medical community as well. A review of the research, published in 2015 in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found evidence that cannabis can treat pain and muscle spasms. The pain component is particularly important, because other studies have suggested that cannabis can replace patients' use of highly addictive, potentially deadly opiates - meaning cannabis legalization literally improves lives.
Polls throughout the United States consistently show overwhelming support for the legalization of medical cannabis, together with strong majority support for the full legalization of recreational adult-use cannabis. According to an October 2022 Pew Research Center survey, around nine-in-ten Americans favor some form of cannabis legalization, with roughly 10% saying cannabis should not be legal in any form. In that survey, 88% of U.S. adults support legalizing cannabis either for medical and recreational use (59%) or medical use only (30%). These views have held steady since April 2021 polling from the Pew Research Center. These are large increases in public support over the past 40 years in favor of legalized cannabis use.
Notwithstanding that 40 states and the District of Columbia have now legalized adult-use and/or medical cannabis (with 21 states and the District of Columbia allowing adult-use cannabis), cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law with cannabis listed as a Schedule I drug under the U.S. Federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970 ("CSA").
Currently the Company only operates in the state of Nevada. The Company may expand into other states within the United States that have legalized cannabis use either medicinally or recreationally.
FEDERAL REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
For a complete summary of the Federal regulatory environment, please refer to the Company's MDA for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, for detailed disclosure in this regard.
p.12
NEVADA REGULATORY UPDATE
For a summary of the Nevada regulatory environment, please refer to the Company's MDA for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024 for detailed disclosure in this regard.
RISK FACTORS
For a comprehensive list of the risk factors relating to the business and securities of the Company, please refer to the Company's MDA for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024 for detailed disclosure in this regard. The Company will face a few challenges and significant risks in the development of its business due to the nature of and present stage of its business. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or currently deemed immaterial by the Company, may also impair the operations of or materially adversely affect the securities of the Company. If any such risks occur, the Company's shareholders could lose all or part of their investment and the business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects of the Company could be materially adversely affected. Some of the risk factors previously disclosed are interrelated and, consequently, readers should read such risk factors in connection with one another.
The acquisition of any of the securities of the Company is speculative, involving a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by persons whose financial resources are enough to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. An investment in the securities of the Company should not constitute a major portion of a person's investment portfolio and should only be made by persons who can afford a total loss of their investment.
In the event of a federal rescheduling of marijuana under the CSA, short of removal from the CSA (i.e., descheduling), there is the risk that FDA takes a more hands on approach to marijuana regulation, in addition to existing state-based regulations.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This MD&A includes "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Canadian securities laws and United States securities laws. All information, other than statements of historical facts, included in this MD&A that addresses activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future is forward-looking information. Forward-looking information includes, among other things, information regarding: statements relating to the business and future activities of, and developments related to, the Company, including such things as capital expenses and revenues, future business strategy, competitive strengths, goals, expansion and growth of the Company's business, operations and plans, ramping of Sales at the Company's third store, including information concerning the completion and timing of the completion of contemplated acquisitions or dispositions, expectations whether such proposed transactions will be consummated on the current terms or otherwise and contemplated timing, expectations and effects of such proposed transactions, including the potential number and location of cultivation and production facilities and dispensaries or licenses therefor to be acquired or sold and markets to be entered into or exited by the Company as a result of completing such proposed transactions, the ability of the Company to successfully achieve its business objectives as a result of completing such proposed acquisitions or dispositions, estimates of future cultivation, manufacturing and extraction capacity, expectations as to the development and distribution of the Company's brands and products, the expansion into additional U.S. and international markets, any potential future legalization of adult-use and/or medical cannabis under U.S. federal law, expectations of market size and growth in the United States and the states in which the Company operates or contemplates future operations and the effect such growth will have on the Company's financial performance, expectations for other economic, business, regulatory and/or competitive factors related to the Company or the cannabis industry generally, and other events or conditions that may occur in the future.
Readers are cautioned that forward-looking information and statements are based on reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management of the Company at the time they were provided or made in light of their experience and their perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking information and statements.
p.13
Forward-looking information and statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions of management at the date the statements are made including among other things assumptions about: the contemplated acquisitions and dispositions being completed on the current terms and current contemplated timeline; development costs remaining consistent with budgets; ability to manage anticipated and unanticipated costs; favorable equity and debt capital markets; the ability to raise sufficient capital to advance the business of the Company; favorable operating and economic conditions; political and regulatory stability; obtaining and maintaining all required licenses and permits; receipt of governmental approvals and permits; sustained labor stability; favorable production levels and costs related to the Company's operations; the pricing of various cannabis products; the level of demand for cannabis products; the availability of third party service providers and other inputs for the Company's operations; the Company's ability to conduct operations in a safe, efficient and effective manner; the ability of the Company to restructure and service its secured debt; the availability of securitized debt financing on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. While the Company considers these assumptions to be reasonable, the assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, social, economic, political, regulatory, competitive and other risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors that could cause actual performance, achievements, actions, events, results or conditions to be materially different from those projected in the forward-looking information and statements. Many assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of the Company and there is no assurance they will prove to be correct.
Risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking information and statements include, among others, risks relating to U.S. regulatory landscape and enforcement related to cannabis, including governmental and environmental regulation, public opinion and perception of the cannabis industry, risks related to the ability to consummate any proposed acquisitions or dispositions on the proposed terms and the ability to obtain requisite regulatory approvals and third party consents and the satisfaction of other conditions, risks related to reliance on third party service providers, the limited operating history of the Company, risks inherent in an agricultural business, risks related to proprietary intellectual property, risks relating to financing activities, risks relating to the management of growth, increasing competition in the cannabis industry, risks associated to cannabis products manufactured for human consumption including health risks, potential product recalls, reliance on key inputs, reliance on a healthy global supply chain, suppliers and skilled labor (the availability and retention of which is subject to uncertainty), cyber-security risks, ability and constraints on marketing products, fraudulent activity by employees, contractors and consultants, risk of litigation and conflicts of interest, and the difficulty of enforcement of judgments and effecting service outside of Canada, risks related to future acquisitions or dispositions, limited research and data relating to cannabis, risks and uncertainties related to the lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continued impact it may have on the global economy and the retail sector, particularly the cannabis retail sector in the states in which the Company operates, as well as those risk factors discussed elsewhere herein, including under "Risk Factors".
Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information and statements. The Company may elect to update such forward-looking information and statements at a future time, it assumes no obligation for doing so except to the extent required by applicable law.
