1. Nature of operations
High Tide Inc. (“High Tide” or the "Company") is a retail-focused cannabis company with diversified operations spanning bricks-and-mortar retail, European importation, wholesale of medical cannabis, and global e-commerce platforms. The Company’s shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “HITI”, the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) under the symbol “HITI”, and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FSE”) under the securities identification code ‘WKN: A2PBPS’ and the ticker symbol “2LYA”. The address of the Company’s corporate and registered office is # 112 – 11127 15 Street NE, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T3K 2M4. High Tide does not engage in any U.S. cannabis-related activities as defined by the Canadian Securities Administrators Staff Notice 51-352.
2. Basis of preparation
A. Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value.
They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements ("annual consolidated financial statements") of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2025, which are available on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.ca and with the SEC at www.sec.gov.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on September 14, 2026.
B. Reclassification of equity presentation
During the period, the Company revised the presentation of equity award-related amounts in the condensed interim consolidated statements of changes in equity by separately presenting the RSU-related amount within share capital and the stock option exercise-price amount within contributed surplus. These amounts were previously presented on a net basis within “Equity awards related costs” in share capital. The revision is a presentation reclassification within equity only and has no impact on total equity, net income (loss), or cash flows.
C. Currencies and foreign exchange
The Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company and its Canadian subsidiaries. The functional currencies of the Company’s U.S., European and United Kingdom subsidiaries are the U.S. dollar (“USD”), euro (“EUR”) and British pound sterling (“GBP”), respectively. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the rate prevailing at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate prevailing at each reporting date. Income and expense amounts are translated at the dates of the transactions.
In preparing the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries are translated into Canadian dollars. The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Canadian dollars using exchange rates at the reporting date. Revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars using average foreign exchange rates. Translation gains and losses resulting from the consolidation of operations into the Company’s functional currency are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) and as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

D. Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by High Tide Inc. Control is achieved when the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements relating to consolidation are consistent with those applied in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2025. Intra‐company balances and transactions, and any unrealized gains or losses or income and expenses arising from intra‐company transactions are eliminated in preparing the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

3. Material accounting policies
The material accounting policies and methods of computation applied in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2025.
Restricted cash
Restricted cash primarily consists of guaranteed investment certificates (“GICs”) that have been pledged as collateral in support of certain loan facilities. These balances are subject to contractual restrictions and are not available for unrestricted use by the Company until the relevant lending arrangements are extinguished or the collateral restrictions are released.
The classification of restricted cash as current or non-current is determined based on the expected timing of the release of the associated restrictions.

| Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
| For the three months and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 |
| (Stated — In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts) |
There were no new or amended IFRS Accounting Standards effective November 1, 2025 that had a material impact on the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
Accounting standards issued but not yet effective are consistent with those disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2025. The Company has not early adopted any new standards or amendments during the period.
4. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions in accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years.
In preparing these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were consistent with those applied in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2025.
During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, the Company reviewed its accounting estimates and judgments, including those described in the notes below.
5. Business combinations
In accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations, these transactions meet the definition of a business combination and, accordingly, the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed have been recorded at their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.
A. Northern Helm
On July 29, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of J. Supply Holdings Inc., operating as Northern Helm (“Northern”), pursuant to a share purchase agreement dated June 12, 2026. Northern Helm operates four retail cannabis stores located in Bowmanville, Kingston, Courtice and Oshawa, Ontario. The acquisition further expands the Company’s retail presence in Ontario.
The following table summarizes the consideration transferred and the preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

(i)The vendor loan had an aggregate principal amount of $3,057 and an acquisition-date fair value of $2,885. The vendor loan notes are repayable in monthly installments over their respective remaining contractual terms of up to 48 months and may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time without notice to, or consent of, the vendors and without bonus or penalty. Refer to Note 12.
(ii)The total consideration was $7,413, consisting of (i) a vendor loan with a fair value of $2,885; (ii) cash consideration of $1,884; and (iii) 921,486 common shares of the Company valued at $2,644.

| Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
| For the three months and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 |
| (Stated — In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts) |
The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired resulted in goodwill primarily attributable to the expected benefits from the expansion of the Company’s retail footprint, anticipated synergies and the assembled workforce. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.
Northern's statutory year-end is December 31. For consolidation purposes at quarter-end July 31, 2026, the Company included Northern’s financial information through July 31 to align with the Company’s quarter-end.
The fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional as at July 31, 2026 and may be adjusted during the measurement period as additional information becomes available about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The measurement period will not exceed one year from the acquisition date.
Had the acquisition occurred on November 1, 2025, management estimates that consolidated revenue and EBITDA for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 would have been $6,454 and $1,188 respectively.
B. Remexian Pharma GmbH
On September 2, 2025, the Company, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of Remexian Pharma GmbH (“Remexian”), a company in the business of importation and wholesale of medical cannabis, for a total purchase price of $46,867 (EUR 29,188).

(i)The long-term contract asset was recognized at its estimated fair value of $1,285 (EUR 800) at the acquisition date, based on management’s assessment of the likelihood of the specified change in law occurring and its expected impact on Remexian’s EBITDA. As at July 31, 2026, the conditions required for the purchase price adjustment had not been satisfied. Accordingly, the Company remeasured the long-term contract asset to nil and recognized a fair value loss of $1,285 in the condensed interim consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) during the nine months ended July 31, 2026.
(ii)Total consideration was $46,867 (EUR 29,188), and consisted of: (i) cash consideration of $12,289 (EUR 7,654); (ii) 5,864,373 common shares of the Company issued as consideration with a value of $26,856 (EUR 16,725); (iii) a vendor loan with a fair value of $9,007 (EUR 5,609) (see Note 12); and (iv) a long-term contract asset of $1,285 (EUR 800) arising from a contingent purchase price adjustment under the Remexian share purchase agreement.
Under the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company was entitled to a return of consideration transferred, up to a maximum of 29% of the final purchase price, if a substantive amendment to the German Medical Cannabis Act (“MedCanG”) occurred by July 31, 2026

and, as a result of such amendment, Remexian’s EBITDA deteriorated by more than 30%. The arrangement was accounted for as contingent consideration receivable.
Under the Remexian Agreement, the Company has a call option with a 5-year life starting September 2, 2027, to purchase the remaining 49% of the shares from the non-controlling shareholders in Remexian. The call option is exercisable at an exercise price determined as a multiple of 4 times or 3.64065 times trailing annual EBITDA. The Company analyzed the value of the call option and considered it to be fair value, and therefore no amount has been recognized in the financial statements in respect of the call option.
The non-controlling interest recorded represents 49% of Remexian shares held by the Sellers and is initially measured as the proportionate share of the recognized assets and liabilities. Under the Agreement, the non-controlling interests are subject to a call and put option. Refer to note 16 for further details on the derivative liability related to the put option.
The excess of the purchase price over the net identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed resulted in goodwill of $31,260 which is largely attributable to the assembled workforce acquired and the synergies from combining operations. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
Remexian’s statutory year-end is December 31. For consolidation purposes at year-end October 31, 2025, the Company included Remexian’s financial information through October 31 to align with the Company’s year-end.
The fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed remain provisional as at July 31, 2026 and may be adjusted during the measurement period as additional information becomes available regarding facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The measurement period will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, no material measurement-period adjustments were recognized.
For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, Remexian contributed revenue of $38,229 and $94,847, respectively, and income from operations of $3,876 and $3,908, respectively.

6. Revenue from contracts with customers
Effective February 1, 2026, the Company combined its bricks-and-mortar retail and e-commerce segments into a single bricks-and-mortar segment, reflecting the manner in which the chief operating decision maker reviews operating performance and allocates resources.

(i)In connection with the acquisition of Remexian, the Company entered into a vendor financing arrangement pursuant to which a portion of the purchase consideration was deferred and recorded as a note payable by the Company to the vendors. The vendor loan has a principal amount of $12,290. The vendor loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 7% per annum on the outstanding principal, with interest accruing annually and payable in January of the following calendar year. The Company may repay the vendor loan in whole or in part, at its discretion, subject to minimum repayment amounts of EUR 100,000 or multiples thereof, and provided that 60 days’ prior written notice is given to the vendor in the case of early repayment. The vendor loan is unsecured and is governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. There are no financial covenants attached to the vendor loan.
In accordance with IFRS 3 – Business Combinations, the vendor loan was initially recognized at its fair value of $9,007 at the acquisition date, with the difference between the principal amount and fair value included as part of the acquisition accounting. Subsequent to initial recognition, the vendor loan is measured in accordance with IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments, at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Accrued interest of $500 was recognized within trade and other payables. No principal repayments were made during the nine months ended July 31, 2026 (July 31, 2025: nil).
(ii)In connection with the acquisition of Northern Helm, the Company assumed three vendor take-back (“VTB”) promissory notes that had been issued in connection with prior acquisitions undertaken by the acquired entities. The VTB notes are repayable in monthly installments over their respective remaining contractual terms of up to 48 months and may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time without notice to, or consent of, the vendors and without bonus or penalty. The notes are secured by pledges of shares of the respective acquired entities and are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the applicable laws of Canada.
The notes have an aggregate principal amount of $3,057 at the time of acquisition and bear interest at a fixed rate of 2% per annum. In accordance with IFRS 3 – Business Combinations, the VTB loans were recognized at $2,885 as liabilities assumed at their acquisition-date fair values. Subsequent to initial recognition, the VTB loans are measured in accordance with IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments at amortized cost using the effective interest method. As at July 31, 2026, outstanding balance was $2,885, of which $828 was classified as current and $2,057 as non-current. No principal repayments were made during the nine months ended July 31, 2026 (July 31, 2025: nil).
(iii)Remexian, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a fixed-rate installment term loan with an unrelated party bank on March 31, 2025, with an original principal of $3,885 (EUR 2.5 million) and final maturity on March 31, 2030. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.82% per annum, calculated using a 360-day year, with quarterly repayments of principal $200 (EUR 0.125 million) and accrued interest, commencing June 30, 2025; contractual interest accrues over the term of the loan and is payable at maturity. The loan is denominated in Euros and translated into Canadian dollars using the closing exchange rate at the reporting date in accordance with IAS 21 and is measured at amortized cost under IFRS 9. The loan is secured by a transfer of ownership of inventory and an assignment of related insurance claims and is further supported by maximum amount guarantees of $932 (EUR 0.6 million) provided by the two largest non-controlling interest owners of Remexian. Following the acquisition of Remexian, the Company placed $488 (EUR 0.3 million) in escrow with a notary in respect of potential security claims. Financial covenants include a minimum equity ratio of 25% and a maximum net debt ratio of 3.0, all of which were met as at July 31, 2026.

On July 16, 2025, the Company entered into a non-revolving $30,000 junior secured term loan with a subsidiary of Cronos Group Inc. (the “Lender”). The loan is guaranteed by designated subsidiaries and is junior in priority to the Company’s prior-ranking senior secured indebtedness.
An original issue discount (“OID”) of 16% ($4,800) was retained by the Lender, resulting in a funded amount of $25,200 received by the Company. Interest accrues at 4% per annum on the full $30,000 principal amount (inclusive of OID) and is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each quarter. Principal repayment is due in full when the loan matures on July 16, 2030; early repayments may be made at the Company’s option without penalty. In connection with this convertible debt, the Company issued detachable warrants to purchase common shares of High Tide Inc. to the Lender, which is recorded as a derivative liability (refer to note 16).
The loan includes a conversion feature that permits the Lender, while the loan is outstanding, to deliver a conversion offer to convert all or a portion of the funded amount (principal net of OID) into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of
$4.20 per share. The Company has ten business days to accept or reject each conversion offer; if not accepted, the offer is deemed rejected. A 10% beneficial ownership cap applies unless applicable TSX Venture Exchange approvals are obtained.
The Company was in compliance with all covenants as at July 31, 2026.

The 3,836,317 detachable warrants were issued concurrently with the advance of the convertible debt and are exercisable into common shares at a fixed exercise price of $3.91, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments. Warrants are exercisable for cash or, at the Company’s option, on a cashless basis. The detachable warrants are freestanding financial instruments and do not meet the criteria for equity classification under IAS 32 – Financial Instruments: Presentation. Accordingly, the detachable warrants are accounted for as a derivative liability. Transaction costs of $212 allocated to the warrants were expensed on initial recognition of the derivative liability.
The Black-Scholes model was used to determine the fair value of the warrants, which was $1.08 as at July 31, 2026 ($2.59 - October 31, 2025). The primary inputs include expected share price volatility of 54% at July 31, 2026 (68% - October 31, 2025), risk-free rate of return of 3.16% at July 31, 2026 (2.63% - October 31, 2025), expected life of the warrants of 3.96 years at July 31, 2026 (4.71 - October 31, 2025), closing market price of the stock of $2.97 at July 31, 2026 ($4.38 - October 31, 2025).
On initial recognition, the detachable warrant liability of $7,299 was recognized as a derivative liability in the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position. As at July 31, 2026, the detachable warrant liability was remeasured to $4,136 ($9,951 - October 31, 2025), and the resulting fair value change of $5,815 ($2,652 – October 31, 2025) was recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

The Company issued a put option to the 49% non-controlling interest shareholders in Remexian, exercisable at any time after September 2, 2027 for a term of 5 years. The put option allows the non-controlling interest shareholders to sell all the remaining shares at an exercise price of 3.64065 times the trailing annual EBITDA.
The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the put option's fair value. At July 31, 2026, the significant level 3 estimates in the valuation were management's multi-year EBITDA forecast, an internal rate of return of 15% (15% - October 31, 2025), an annualized EBITDA volatility of 85% (82% - October 31, 2025) and risk-free rate of 3.40% (3.40% - October 31, 2025).
On initial recognition, the put option liability of $35,797 was recorded as derivative liability - equity in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. As at July 31, 2026 the put option liability was remeasured as $48,385 ($56,954 - October 31, 2025) and the resulting fair value change of $8,496 ($20,907 - October 31, 2025) was recorded in the interim condensed interim consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

(ii)Remexian has a credit framework with German bank that may be utilized as an overdraft facility (line of credit), money market loans, bank guarantees and import letters of credit, with an aggregate limit of $9,436 (EUR 6,000), of which money market utilization is subject to a sub-limit of $7,863 (EUR 5,000). The overdraft facility bears interest at a variable rate linked to three-month average EURIBOR, with interest payable monthly in arrears, and is subject to a provision fee of 0.10% per annum plus VAT on the unused portion; the facility has no stated maturity and amounts drawn are repayable on demand. As at July 31, 2026, there was an outstanding balance of $3,868 (EUR 2,396) under the overdraft facility (line of credit) which is included in cash and cash equivalents on the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position. Money market loans are short-term drawings repayable at the end of their term and bear interest at EURIBOR plus a margin of 2.50% per annum (EURIBOR floored at zero), calculated using a 360-day year. As at July 31, 2026, the variable interest rate applicable to the overdraft facility was 5.248%, and the rate applicable to the money market loan was 4.747%. The facilities are denominated in Euros.
A money market loan of $4,851 was fully repaid on December 15, 2025. On January 15, 2026, the Company drew $7,264 (EUR 4,500) under the credit facility, which was repaid on April 30, 2026. On July 22, 2026, the Company drew $7,265 (EUR 4,500), which remained outstanding as at July 31, 2026 and was classified as current. No amounts were outstanding under bank guarantees or import letters of credit as at July 31, 2026.
The credit framework is secured by Remexian’s inventory and related insurance claims and is further supported by maximum amount guarantees of $970 (EUR 600) provided by two non-controlling shareholders of Remexian; in addition, the Company placed $485 (EUR 300) in escrow with a notary in respect of potential security claims. Accrued interest relating to these facilities is recognized separately within trade and other payables. There are no financial covenants attached to this loan. During the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, the Company incurred interest of $36 and $158, respectively (July 31, 2025: nil and nil, respectively), on the money market loan.
(iii)Remexian entered into a procurement pre-financing arrangement with a German lender, under which the German lender pays approved supplier invoices on Remexian’s behalf and Remexian reimburses the German lender at the end of an agreed payment deferral period. During the year, Remexian selected a four-month payment deferral for all transactions, with the applicable transfer fee determined at the time each invoice was submitted. Amounts outstanding under the arrangement are repayable within twelve months and are therefore classified as current. The arrangement is secured by collateral over the financed goods and related claims. On November 26, 2025, the German lender provided notice to terminate the arrangement, following which no new supplier invoices are being financed; this did not affect the carrying amount of the balance outstanding at the reporting date. There are no financial covenants attached to this loan. As at July 31, 2026, the balance outstanding was nil.

24. Financial Instruments and risk management
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The Company is exposed to credit, liquidity, interest and market risk due to holding certain financial instruments. This note presents information about changes to the Company’s exposure to each of these risks, its objectives, policies, and processes for measuring and managing risk, and its management of capital during the year. Further quantitative disclosure is included throughout these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.
(a) Fair value
The Company classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
-Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
-Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
-Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
| | | | | |
| High Tide Inc. |
| Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
| For the three months and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 |
| (Stated — In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts) |
The Company assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable, interest bearing loans and borrowings, current portion of notes payable, and current portion of lease liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value:
-Marketable securities (excluding long-term GICs) are determined based on level 1 inputs, as the prices for the marketable securities are quoted in public exchanges.
-The Secured Debentures are evaluated by the Company based on level 2 inputs such as the effective interest rate and the market rates of comparable securities. The Secured Debentures are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost and at each reporting period accretion incurred in the period is recorded to transaction costs in the condensed interim consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).
-The Junior Secured Convertible Loan is evaluated by the Company based on level 2 inputs such as the effective interest rate and the market rates of comparable securities. The Loan is initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost, and at each reporting period, accretion incurred during the period is recorded in the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). The Warrants issued with the Junior Secured Convertible Loan are valued by the Company based on level 3 inputs and the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model for financial instruments (i.e. spot price determined as 30-day VWAP, risk-free rate as per the Bank of Canada, stock price volatility). A 1% change in expected volatility would change the warrant liability by approximately $83.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk arises when a party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the counterparty by failing to fulfill its obligation. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value (net of allowances) of the financial assets. The objective of managing credit risk is to prevent losses on financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of counterparties, considering their financial position, past experience, and other factors. Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances. Credit risk associated with cash is minimized substantially by ensuring that these financial assets are held in highly rated financial institutions. The Company holds all cash and cash equivalents with large commercial banks or credit unions, which minimizes credit risk.
The following table sets forth details of the aging profile of accounts receivables and the allowance for expected credit loss:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| As at | | July 31, 2026 | | October 31, 2025 |
| | $ | | $ |
| Current (for less than 30 days) | | 9,334 | | 3,989 |
| 31 – 60 days | | 237 | | 99 |
| 61 – 90 days | | 137 | | 101 |
| Greater than 90 days | | 2,083 | | 2,355 |
| Less allowance | | (1,592) | | (929) |
| | 10,199 | | 5,615 |
Accounts receivables consist primarily of accounts receivables from invoicing for products and services rendered. The Company’s credit risk arises from the possibility that a customer that owes the Company money is unable or unwilling to meet its obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions in the contracts with the Company, which would result in a financial loss for the Company. This risk is mitigated through established credit management techniques, including monitoring customers' creditworthiness, setting exposure limits and monitoring exposure against these customer credit limits.
For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 net amounts of $466 and $663, respectively (July 31, 2025: $261 and $223, respectively), in trade receivables were written off against the allowance due to bad debts and $492 and $892, respectively (July 31, 2025: $259 and $263, respectively), were written off directly to bad debts. Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. The remaining accounts receivables are evaluated by the Company based on parameters

| Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |

| (Stated — In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts) |
such as interest rates, specific country risk factors, and individual creditworthiness of the customer. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the estimated losses of these receivables.
The Company performs a regular assessment of the collectability of accounts receivables. In determining the expected credit loss amount, the Company considers the customer’s financial position, payment history and economic conditions.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient readily available reserves in order to meet its liquidity requirements at any point in time. The Company generally relies on funds generated from operations, equity and debt financing to provide sufficient liquidity to meet budgeted operating requirements and to supply capital to expand its operations. The Company may access capital to meet current and future obligations as they come due. The Company’s ability to manage its liquidity risk going forward will require some or all of the following: the ability to continue to generate positive cash flows from operations and to secure capital or credit facilities on reasonable terms.
Maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Contractual Cash Flows | 2026 | 2026 | | 2027-2028 | | 2029-2030 | | 2031 and beyond |

Total | | 246,970 | | 74,928 | | 45,324 | | 89,215 | | 37,503 |
(d) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in the market interest rate primarily relates to the Company’s current credit facility with a variable interest rate.
As at July 31, 2026, approximately 78% of the Company’s borrowings are at a fixed rate of interest (77% - October 31, 2025). Assuming all other variables remain constant, a fluctuation of +/- 1.0 percent in the interest rate would impact the annual interest payment by approximately +/- $133 ($139 - October 31, 2025).
(e) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is defined as the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company maintains cash balances and enters into transactions denominated in foreign currencies, which exposes the Company to fluctuating balances and cash flows due to variations in foreign exchange rates. The Canadian dollar equivalent carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities as at July 31, 2026 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Assuming all other variables remain constant, a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between USD and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $4 ($9 - October 31, 2025). Maintaining constant variables, a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between the EUR and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $999 ($1,049 - October 31, 2025), and a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between GBP and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $8 ($10 - October 31, 2025). To date, the Company has not entered into financial derivative contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

28. Capital management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital resources are to:
(i)Explore profitable growth opportunities;
(ii)Deploy capital to provide an appropriate return on investment for shareholders;
(iii)Maintain financial flexibility to preserve the ability to meet financial obligations; and
(iv)Maintain a capital structure that provides financial flexibility to execute on strategic opportunities.
The Company’s strategy is formulated to maintain a flexible capital structure consistent with the objectives stated above as well as to respond to changes in economic conditions and to the risks inherent in its underlying assets. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather promotes year‐over‐year sustainable profitable growth. The Company’s capital structure consists of debt, equity and working capital. To maintain or alter the capital structure, the Company may adjust capital spending, take on new debt or issue share capital. The Company anticipates that it will have adequate liquidity to fund future working capital commitments and forecasted capital expenditures through a combination of cash flow, cash‐on‐hand and financing, as required.
29. Contingent liability
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries may become defendants in certain employment claims and other litigation. The Company records a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company is not involved in any legal proceedings other than routine litigation arising in the normal course of business, none of which the Company believes will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. There have been no material changes in contingent liabilities or contingent assets since those disclosed in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2025.

About this MD&A:
This management’s discussion and analysis (this “MD&A”) of High Tide Inc. (“High Tide”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”) for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 is dated September 14, 2026. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 together with the notes thereto and the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 (hereafter the “Financial Statements”). The financial information presented in this MD&A has been derived from the Financial Statements, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The Company’s continuous disclosure materials, including interim filings, audited annual consolidated financial statements, annual information form and annual report on Form 40-F can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, with the Company’s filings with the SEC at www.sec.gov/edgar.
This MD&A refers to the Company’s two reportable operating segments (refer to "segmented operations"): (i) the “bricks-and-mortar” segment, which comprises the Company’s physical retail locations and its U.S. and international subsidiaries; and (ii) the “medical cannabis distribution” segment, which comprises the medical cannabis distribution operations acquired through the Remexian acquisition.
The Company’s shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “HITI”, the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) under the symbol “HITI”, and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (“FSE”) under the securities identification code ‘WKN: A2PBPS’ and the ticker symbol “2LYA”. The address of the Company’s corporate and registered office is # 112 – 11127 15 Street NE, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T3K 2M4. High Tide does not engage in any U.S. cannabis-related activities as defined by the Canadian Securities Administrators Staff Notice 51-352.
Basis of Comparison
Unless otherwise indicated, the management discusses changes in the results of operations on (i) a year-over-year (“YoY”) basis, comparing the current quarter to the corresponding quarter of the prior year (i.e., the same quarter last year), and (ii) a quarter-over-quarter (“QoQ”) or sequential basis, comparing the current quarter to the immediately preceding quarter. Year-over-year comparisons can help mitigate the impact of seasonality and provide insight into underlying performance trends, while sequential comparisons highlight recent operational momentum but may be more sensitive to seasonality, timing of transactions, and other short-term factors. For ease of reference throughout this MD&A, “YoY” refers to current quarter versus the same quarter last year, and “QoQ” (or “sequential”) refers to current quarter versus the immediately preceding quarter.
Company overview:
Founded in 2009, High Tide, through its subsidiary Canna Cabana is the largest cannabis retail chain in Canada. As of July 31, 2026, the Company operates 229 branded retail cannabis stores across Canada represented by 92 locations in Alberta, 104 locations in Ontario, 13 locations in Saskatchewan, 8 locations in British Columbia, and 12 locations in Manitoba. Included within the 229 stores, the Company has a 50% interest in a partnership that operates a branded retail Canna Cabana location in Sudbury, Ontario, and a 49% interest in two joint ventures operating under the Meta Cannabis Supply Co. brand in Manitoba.
Canna Cabana sells cannabis and consumption accessories in Canada through its innovative discount club model. The Company sells hemp-derived products through its e-commerce platforms, including NuLeaf Naturals, FAB CBD and Blessed CBD, and sells consumption accessories through its e-commerce platforms, including Grasscity, Smoke Cartel, Daily High Club and DankStop. High Tide imports and distributes medical cannabis to pharmacies in Germany through its 51%-owned subsidiary Remexian Pharma GmbH, which is one of the largest wholesalers of medical cannabis products in Germany and is commanding a significant share of the market.
Company outlook:
Bricks-and-Mortar Retail
High Tide’s wholly owned subsidiary, Canna Cabana, is the largest cannabis retail chain in Canada with 232 locations. Canna Cabana also owns and operates a location in Berlin, Germany, selling consumption accessories. As previously communicated, the Company reiterates its long-term goal of surpassing 350 locations across Canada and opening over 20 locations in calendar 2026, mostly through organic growth, while also evaluating supplemental M&A opportunities of varying sizes.

White Label Initiatives
The Company continues to expand its white label cannabis product portfolio under its flagship Queen of Bud and Cabana Cannabis Co. brands, increasing from 41 to 48 SKUs sequentially. The Company is also developing several new offerings to further grow its white label portfolio. Currently, white label cannabis SKUs represent approximately 1.9% of the Company’s total bricks-and-mortar cannabis sales. Over the long term, the Company anticipates significant growth in its white label portfolio.
Cabana Club & ELITE
The Company’s Cabana Club and ELITE loyalty programs, which remain the largest such cannabis loyalty programs in the world, continue to expand at a rapid pace across Canada. Cabana Club membership has now surpassed 2.73 million members in Canada, which is up 27% in the past year. Over the long term the Company anticipates exceeding 3 million Cabana Club members in Canada. ELITE, the paid membership tier now exceeds 186,000 members in Canada—after growing by 62% compared to last year—with additional members being onboarded daily.
Europe
High Tide’s German medical cannabis subsidiary, Remexian Pharma GmbH, has continued to gain momentum since the Company’s acquisition of a majority stake, with market share increasing from 6.5% to 10.5% in the first six months post-transaction. The Company notes that while industry data is not available, Remexian’s shipments have increased 44% since the three months ended March 31, 2026. Management is encouraged by this strong and increasingly bullish trajectory and believes the Company is well positioned to sustain, and potentially grow, its share of the German medical cannabis market, supported by its unmatched Canadian supply relationships and the continued growth of Germany’s medical cannabis sector. The record tonnage distributed by Remexian during the third fiscal quarter provides further evidence of this positive momentum and, assuming the current regulatory framework remains materially unchanged, could be indicative of the scale and growth potential of the business in the quarters ahead. The Company continues to assess potential opportunities in other European jurisdictions and is committed to being strategic on any entry with the aim of maximizing shareholder value.
United States
The Company's conviction in the long-term opportunity for its U.S. hemp-derived CBD subsidiaries continues to be reinforced by an evolving federal policy environment. Consistent with the rationale behind their becoming founding members of the U.S. National Compassionate Care Council, the Company and its subsidiary, NuLeaf Naturals, remain focused on helping to shape thoughtful federal and state medical cannabis policy while supporting efforts to expand patient access to cannabinoid therapies.
Federal reform in the U.S. has continued to accelerate. On April 23, 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) moved FDA-approved cannabis drug products and cannabis subject to a state medical marijuana license from Schedule I to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act, the most significant shift in U.S. federal cannabis regulation in decades. Building on that order, the DEA conducted an administrative hearing between June 29 and July 15, 2026, to consider the broader rescheduling of cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III.
The Company believes that broader rescheduling, if ultimately implemented, could have significant implications for the U.S. cannabis industry, including the listing policies of major North American capital markets exchanges. High Tide is actively assessing whether broader rescheduling could create a pathway for exchange-listed companies to participate directly in the U.S. state-legal adult-use cannabis market while maintaining their existing listings. The Company has initiated outreach to the Nasdaq Stock Exchange and the TSX Venture Exchange to better understand how broader federal rescheduling could impact their respective listing policies and, ultimately, High Tide's ability to pursue opportunities in the U.S. adult-use cannabis sector.
The Company continues to engage with multiple counterparties in the U.S. to explore potential opportunities.

The key factors affecting the results for the three months ended July 31, 2026, were:
•Revenue – The revenue increased by 33%, or $49,128, compared with the same period of 2025, driven by growth across both operating segments, including a $38,229 contribution from the medical cannabis distribution segment and a $10,899 increase in revenue from the bricks-and-mortar segment.
•Gross margin – The gross margin remained consistent compared with the same period of 2025, while gross profit increased by 32% to $52,746 for the three months ended July 31, 2026, from $40,091 in the comparative period.
•Operating expense – Operating expense increased, but at a lower rate than revenue growth, primarily reflecting the addition of Remexian’s cost base following its acquisition and continued cost discipline in the bricks-and-mortar segment. Operating expense as a percentage of revenue improved by 2 percentage points during the three months ended July 31, 2026, compared with the same period of 2025.
•Adjusted EBITDA margin – Adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 1% compared with the same period of 2025, primarily reflecting higher gross profit combined with disciplined cost management.
•Free cash flow – Despite increased working capital requirements associated with new store openings and international expansion, the Company continued to generate positive free cash flow, reflecting disciplined capital management and the strength of its underlying operations. The free cash flow was $7,017, compared with $7,682 in the same period of 2025.

•Growth in the bricks-and-mortar segment contributed an additional revenue of $10,899 and $31,641 for the three- and nine-month periods, respectively, primarily driven by revenue generated from new store openings.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as per the table below. It should be noted that these performance measures are not defined under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other entities. The Company believes that these measures are useful financial metrics as they assist in determining the ability to generate cash from operations. Investors should be
cautioned that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings or cash flows as determined under IFRS. Management defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as the net income (loss) for the period, before income/deferred tax (recovery) expense, accretion and interest expense, depreciation and amortization, inventory fair value, foreign exchange gain (loss), transaction and acquisition costs, other (gain) loss, impairment loss, share-based compensation, loss (gain) on fair value change in derivative liability, and loss on fair value change in the long term contract asset.
The reconciling items between net income (loss), EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are as follows:

Free cash flow
The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less sustaining capex and lease liability payments, as presented in the table below. Sustaining capex represents leasehold improvements and maintenance capital expenditures required to support the existing business which excludes growth capex. Free cash flow is a non-IFRS financial measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other entities. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is net cash provided by operating activities, as presented in the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows. Free cash flow should not be viewed as a measure of liquidity or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The increase was primarily attributable to a full quarter of trading without the headwind from fewer operating days experienced in Q2 2026, together with continued new store openings. Gross margin decreased slightly to 27% from 28% in Q2 2026. Adjusted EBITDA margin remained consistent at 7%, as continued cost discipline largely offset the lower gross margin.

YoY
Following the acquisition of Remexian on September 2, 2025, the nine months ended July 31, 2026 represent the first full nine-month reporting period for the medical cannabis distribution segment. Accordingly, the segment’s results are not directly comparable with the corresponding periods in 2025.
For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, the segment generated revenue of $38,229 and $94,847, respectively. The segment achieved adjusted gross margin of 26% and 23%, respectively, primarily driven by supply-chain leverage, favorable vendor pricing and continued optimization of the product mix.
QoQ
The 21% increase in revenue to $38,229 for the three months ended July 31, 2026, compared with $31,639 in Q2 2026, was primarily driven by higher sales volumes and increased tonnage sold during the quarter. Adjusted gross margin decreased slightly to 26% from 27% in Q2 2026, while the segment continued to generate a strong profitability profile.

Performance by geographical market:
Geographical markets reflect revenue based on the geographical locations of the customers generating the revenue. The following provides an overview of the above-mentioned geographical markets. The Company's geographic markets are characterized as follows:
Canada: Within Canada, the Company operates retail cannabis stores under the Canna Cabana banner and maintains warehouse operations that primarily support and supply its retail locations. During the three months ended July 31, 2026, the Company expanded its Canadian retail presence through the acquisition of Northern Helm, comprising of four retail cannabis stores in Ontario.
USA: The Company operates a consumption accessories warehouse in Las Vegas and a CBD manufacturing facility in Denver, which services its e-commerce platforms within the USA, including Smoke Cartel, Grasscity, Daily High Club, DankStop, NuLeaf Naturals and FAB CBD.
International: Within the International market, the Company operates its Blessed CBD e-commerce platform, which primarily serves the UK market. On September 2, 2025, the Company expanded its international presence through the acquisition of Remexian, which added medical cannabis distribution operations in Germany.
Geographic markets vs. operating segments
The Canada and USA geographic markets generally correspond to the bricks-and-mortar operating segment. The International geographic market primarily includes the medical cannabis distribution segment. Variances between geographic market and operating segment results primarily reflect differences in the allocation of corporate overhead, which is assigned to operating segments based on revenue but recorded by geographic market based on the location where costs are incurred, primarily in Canada.

Operating expenses were $36,514 for the three months ended July 31, 2026, compared to $35,267 in Q2 2026, primarily due to higher salaries and wages associated with additional operating days in the quarter. As a percentage of revenue, operating expenses improved to 18% from 20% in Q2 2026, primarily due to fixed operating expenses being spread over a larger revenue base.

Financial position - total assets
Current assets increased by $9,126 to $146,011, primarily driven by an increase in trade and other receivables and prepaid expenses and deposits, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents.

Financial position - total liabilities
Current liabilities decreased by $2,350 to $97,569, primarily due to decreases in derivative liabilities and interest-bearing loans and borrowings, partially offset by higher accounts payable and accrued liabilities and income taxes payable. Non-current liabilities increased by $5,495 to $151,851, primarily due to higher lease liabilities and notes payable, partially offset by a decrease in derivative liabilities.
Financial position - shareholders' equity
Shareholders’ equity increased by $17,142 to $119,929 for the nine months ended July 31, 2026, primarily driven by net income for the period.
Financial position - working capital

Cash flow overview
The following table presents a summary of the Company’s cash flow for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 and July 31, 2025.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| July 31, 2026 | July 31, 2025 | Change |
| Net cash provided by operating activities | 20,384 | 19,588 | 796 |
| Net cash used in investing activities | (8,536) | (6,877) | (1,659) |
| Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities | (12,529) | 4,263 | (16,792) |
| Effect of foreign exchange on cash | (80) | (432) | 352 |
| Net (decrease) increase in cash | (761) | 16,542 | (17,303) |
| Cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash, beginning of period | 47,883 | 47,267 | 616 |
| Cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash, end of period | 47,122 | 63,809 | (16,687) |
During the nine months ended July 31, 2026, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash decreased by $761 to $47,122 (October 31, 2025: $47,883). The decrease was primarily driven by net cash used in financing activities and investing activities, partially offset by cash generated from operations. In comparison, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash increased by $16,542 in the corresponding period of 2025, primarily due to proceeds from convertible debt of $24,790.
Cash flow overview - net cash provided by operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $20,384 for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 (July 31, 2025: $19,588). The $796 increase was primarily driven by improved operating performance.
Cash flow overview - net cash used in investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 was $8,536 (July 31, 2025: $6,877). Net cash used in investing activities increased by $1,659, primarily due to cash used for business combinations and acquisition of retail store leases, partially offset by lower purchases of property and equipment.
Cash flow overview - net cash used in financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended July 31, 2026 was $12,529 (July 31, 2025: $4,263 of net cash provided), primarily due to the absence in 2026 of proceeds from convertible debt ($24,790 in 2025) and secured debentures ($4,360 in 2025), together with higher repayments of interest-bearing loans and borrowings of $17,437 compared with $2,804 in the corresponding period of 2025. These impacts were partially offset by proceeds from interest-bearing loans and borrowings, net of issue costs, of $14,530 in 2026 and lower repayments of notes payable of $977 compared with $14,172 in the corresponding period of 2025.
Capital management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital resources are to:
(i)Explore profitable growth opportunities;
(ii)Deploy capital to provide an appropriate return on investment for shareholders;
(iii)Maintain financial flexibility to preserve the ability to meet financial obligations; and
(iv)Maintain a capital structure that provides financial flexibility to execute on strategic opportunities.
The Company’s strategy is to maintain a flexible capital structure consistent with the objectives stated above as well as to respond to changes in economic conditions and to the risks inherent in its underlying assets. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather promotes year-over-year sustainable profitable growth. The Company’s capital structure consists of debt, equity and working capital. To maintain or alter the capital structure, the Company may adjust capital spending, take on new debt and issue share capital. The Company anticipates that it will have adequate liquidity to fund future working capital, commitments, and forecasted capital expenditures through a combination of cash‐on‐hand and financing, as required.

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and cash from debt and equity financings. As at July 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $47,122 (October 31, 2025: $47,883). Management believes its liquidity is sufficient to meet working capital requirements, capital commitments, and debt obligations for at least the next twelve months.

Derivative put option liability
The carrying value of the derivative liability, as at July 31, 2026, amounting to $48,385, represents the fair value estimate of the put option liability related to the 49% non-controlling interest in Remexian. Refer to note 16 of condensed interim consolidated financial statements. The fair value may differ from the ultimate settlement amount.
Management continues to monitor and review the key assumptions used in the valuation of the derivative liability on a regular basis consistent with the Company’s established financial reporting processes. This includes assessing the sensitivity of the valuation to changes in significant inputs, including forecasted operating results, discount rates, and other relevant assumptions. Given the judgment involved, management evaluates whether updated forecasts or changes in facts and circumstances during the quarter indicate that revisions to the derivative liability measurement are required. Any resulting changes in fair value are recognized in the period identified in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
Off balance sheet transactions
The Company does not have any financial arrangements that are excluded from the financial statements as of July 31, 2026, nor are any such arrangements outstanding as of the date of this MD&A.

Transactions between related parties:
As of July 31, 2026, the Company had the following transactions with related parties as defined in IAS 24 – Related Party Disclosures, except those pertaining to transactions with key management personnel in the ordinary course of their employment and/or directorship arrangements and transactions with the Company’s shareholders in the form of various financing arrangements.
Operational transactions
An office and warehouse unit (27,000 sq ft) has been developed by Grover Properties Inc., a company that is related through a common controlling shareholder and the President & CEO of the Company. The office and warehouse space were leased to High Tide to accommodate the Company’s operational expansion. The lease was established by an independent real estate valuation services company at prevailing market rates and has annual lease payments of $386 per annum. The current lease term is 5 years and ends on December 31, 2028, with one additional five-year extension option exercisable by the Company.
Following the acquisition of a controlling interest in Remexian on September 2, 2025, Remexian continued to receive facilities and operational support services from INOPHA under an existing service agreement, including seconded personnel support and the provision of services by Remexian’s managing director through INOPHA. INOPHA is considered a related party of the Company as it shares common key management personnel with Remexian, including the Chief Executive Officer, Stefan Adomeit. For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026, the Company recognized $513 and $1,234 of expense in respect of these services, respectively (2025: nil and nil, respectively).
Financing transactions
On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into a $19,000 demand term loan with connectFirst Credit Union (the “Credit Facility”), with Tranche 1 of $12,100, available in a single advance, and Tranche 2 of $6,900, available through multiple draws subject to specified pre-disbursement conditions. In connection with the Credit Facility, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company provided a limited recourse guarantee secured by $5,000 of High Tide Inc. shares held by the CEO and affiliates in favour of the Credit Union. The guarantee was available only after all collection efforts against High Tide Inc. had been exhausted, including the sale of High Tide Inc. Following the repayment and termination of the Credit Facility on August 7, 2026, the guarantee was discharged.
Financial instruments:
Please refer to Note 24 of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 for details on measurement, carrying value, fair value and related risks of financial instruments, which is hereby incorporated by reference into this MD&A. For the nine months ended July 31, 2026, the Company did not engage in hedging activities.
Disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting:
The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have designed or caused to be designed under their supervision, disclosure controls and procedures which provide reasonable assurance that material information regarding the Company is accumulated and communicated to Management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a timely manner. Under the supervision and with the participation of Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Canada by NI 52-109 and in the United States by the rules adopted by the SEC). In addition, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company are responsible for designing internal controls over financial reporting or causing them to be designed under their supervision in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to the material weakness identified in our internal control over financial reporting, as further described below.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

| Management's Discussion and Analysis |
| For the three and nine months ended July 31, 2026 and 2025 |
| (In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts or otherwise stated) |
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2026, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013 Framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, Management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) was not effective as of July 31, 2026, due to a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following internal control deficiencies that constitute material weaknesses in the Company’s ICFR as of July 31, 2026.
The Company did not effectively design, implement, and operate effective controls over user access and change management for certain financial reporting systems, which affected the reliability of system-generated information used in financial reporting. In addition, controls over the preparation and review of financial information and related disclosures, primarily related to complex and non-routine transactions, were not designed or operating at a level sufficient to prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis. As of July 31, 2026, material weaknesses continue to exist in the operating effectiveness of IT general controls and controls over significant and non-routine accounting transactions because of insufficient capacity and expertise in its financial reporting function to identify and detect material misstatements.
Management has initiated remediation efforts to enhance IT general controls and to hire qualified resources to increase capacity and strengthen review procedures over non-routine and certain period-end accounting matters; however, these actions were not fully implemented or operating effectively as of July 31, 2026.

Although Management believes that the expectations reflected in, and assumptions underlying, such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for Management to predict all of those factors or to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing is not exhaustive. The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A and the documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking statements contained in this document speak only as of the date of this MD&A and the Company does not assume any obligation to publicly update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances, except as may be required pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws.
These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this MD&A or as of the date specified in the documents incorporated by reference into this MD&A. The actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this MD&A: counterparty credit risk; access to capital; limitations on insurance; changes in environmental or other legislation applicable to our operations, and our ability to comply with current and future environmental and other laws; changes in income tax laws or changes in tax laws and incentive programs relating to the cannabis industry; and the other factors discussed under “Financial Instruments” in this MD&A.

Additional risk factors that can cause results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements in this MD&A are discussed in greater detail in the “Non-Exhaustive List of Risk Factors” section in Schedule A to our current annual information form, and elsewhere in this MD&A, as such factors may be further updated from time to time in our periodic filings, available at www.sedarplus.ca and www.sec.gov/edgar, which risk factors are incorporated herein by reference.
Cautionary note regarding FOFI:
This MD&A, and documents incorporated by reference herein, may contain FOFI within the meaning of Applicable Securities Laws and analogous U.S. securities laws, about prospective results of operations, financial position or cash flows, based on assumptions about future economic conditions and courses of action, which FOFI is not presented in the format of a historical balance sheet, income statement or cash flow statement. The FOFI has been prepared by Management to provide an outlook of the Company’s activities and results and has been prepared based on a number of assumptions including the assumptions discussed under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information” and assumptions with respect to the costs and expenditures to be incurred by the Company, capital expenditures and operating costs, taxation rates for the Company and general and administrative expenses. Management does not have, or may not have had at the relevant date, firm commitments for all of the costs, expenditures, prices or other financial assumptions which may have been used to prepare the FOFI or assurance that such operating results will be achieved and, accordingly, the complete financial effects of all of those costs, expenditures, prices and operating results are not, or may not have been at the relevant date of the FOFI, objectively determinable.
Importantly, the FOFI contained in this MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein is, or may be, based upon certain additional assumptions that Management believes to be reasonable based on the information currently available to Management, including, but not limited to, assumptions about: (i) the future pricing for the Company’s products, (ii) the future market demand and trends within the jurisdictions in which the Company may from time to time conduct the Business, (iii) the Company’s ongoing inventory levels, and operating cost estimates, and (iv) the Company’s net proceeds from its financings. The FOFI or financial outlook contained in MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein do not purport to present the Company’s financial condition in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing the FOFI will prove accurate. The actual results of operations of the Company and the resulting financial results will likely vary from the amounts set forth in the analysis presented in any such document, and such variation may be material (including due to the occurrence of unforeseen events occurring subsequent to the preparation of the FOFI). The Company and Management believe that the FOFI has been prepared on a reasonable basis, reflecting Management’s best estimates and judgments as at the applicable date. However, because this information is highly subjective and subject to numerous risks including the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Assessment”, FOFI or financial outlook within this MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein, should not be relied on as necessarily indicative of future results.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Throughout this MD&A, references are made to non-IFRS financial measures, including free cash flow, gross margin, Sustaining capex, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Non-IFRS measures provide investors with a supplemental measure of the Company’s operating performance and therefore highlight trends in the Company’s core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. Management uses non-IFRS measures in measuring the financial performance of the Company.
Risk Assessment
Management defines risk as the evaluation of probability that an event might happen in the future that could negatively affect the financial condition, results of operations and/or reputation of the Company. Risks facing our business, and that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectation, may include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties that are discussed in greater detail in Schedule A to our current Annual Information Form (AIF) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2025, and elsewhere in this MD&A, and may be further updated from time to time in our periodic filings, available at www.sedarplus.ca and www.sec.gov/edgar, which risk factors are incorporated herein by reference.
The Company's bricks-and-mortar business, which accounts for 81% of revenue, is domestically sourced and therefore has no US tariff impact. The Company’s e-commerce platforms, which represent 2% of consolidated revenue, consist predominantly of domestically sourced products, with less than 1% of total products sourced through a broker that imports products both domestically and internationally. In addition, the Company’s medical cannabis distribution business, which represents 17% of consolidated revenue, is currently not exposed to U.S. tariff risk. Based on the Company’s current sourcing profile, management expects the impact of U.S. tariffs on consolidated operations to be immaterial.
