PART I
Item 1. Business
Historical background
Target Group Inc. (“Target Group” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 2, 2013, under its original name of River Run Acquisition Corporation. Effective May 13, 2014, the Company changed its name to Chess Supersite Corporation. On July 3, 2018, the Company filed an amendment in its Certificate of Incorporation to change its name to Target Group Inc.
Effective July 1, 2025, the Company’s common stock is quoted on the Pink Limited Market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc, under the symbol “CBDY”.
Cannabis Business-Canada
The Company is engaged in the cultivation, processing and distribution of curated cannabis products for the medical and adult-use recreational cannabis market in Canada and continues to evaluate opportunities, where legalized by state legislation or related to rescheduling, in the United States. There continues to be a shift in the public’s perception of cannabis from a state of prohibition to a state of legalization across North America. In October 2018, Canada became the first major industrialized nation to legalize adult-use cannabis at the national federal level. Cannabis is still heavily regulated, however, the medical use of cannabis is now permitted in up to 29 countries and many more countries have reformed, or are considering reforming, their cannabis related laws to permit the medical and/or recreational production, distribution, sale and use of cannabis.
In the 2016 publication by Deloitte, Insights and Opportunities Recreational Marijuana, the project size of the Canadian adult-use market ranged from CDN$4.9 billion to CDN$8.7 billion annually. In the 2018 publication by Deloitte, A Society in Transition, an Industry Ready to Boom, the projected size of the Canadian adult-use market in 2019 ranged from CDN$1.8 billion to CDN$4.3 billion. According to a 2025 report published by the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS) in collaboration with Deloitte Canada, the Canadian legal cannabis industry generated CDN$28.7 billion in cumulative nationwide sales from October 2018 through 2024, primarily driven by recreational products. The Canadian medical cannabis industry experienced substantial growth since 2014.
The Company is positioning itself with a core emphasis on wholesale and co-packaging services to accommodate all consumer-packaged goods intended for the sophisticated cannabis market and consumer in Canada and internationally. This strategy integrate cannabinoid research, analytical testing, product development and manufacturing.
Target Group’s product manufacturing includes, will include, but will not be limited to the following:
As of the date of this report, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have any operations, employees or corporate offices based in United States.

Acquisitions
Capitalizing on the opportunity resulting from the legalization of adult-use cannabis in Canada, the Company completed the following strategic acquisitions and entered into the following agreements as follows:
Visava Inc./Canary Rx Inc.
On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (“Visava Exchange Agreement”) with Visava Inc., a private Ontario, Canada corporation (“Visava”). Visava owns 100% of Canary Rx Inc, a Canadian corporation (“Canary”) that operates a 44,000 square foot facility located in Ontario’s Garden Norfolk County for the production of cannabis. Canary is a Canadian Licensed Producer under Health Canada’s Cannabis Act (“Bill C-45”). Canary expects to grow up to 4 million grams of cannabis annually out of its Simcoe facility once it is at full capacity. The Company is now growing premium cannabis in indoor grow rooms and each 2,200 square feet room gets up to 5.4 turns annually.
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Visava in exchange for the issuance of 25,500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and issued to the Visava shareholders, pro rata Common Stock Purchase Warrants (“Visava Warrants”) purchasing an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price per share of $0.10 for a period of two years following the issuance date of the Visava Warrants. As a result of this transaction, Visava became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the former shareholders of Visava owned approximately 46.27% of the Company’s shares of Common Stock. The transaction was closed effective August 2, 2018. During the year ended, December 31, 2020, all of the Visava Warrants expired, none were exercised.
CannaKorp Inc.
Pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange dated January 25, 2019 (“Cannakorp Exchange Agreement”), on March 1, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Massachusetts –based CannaKorp Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CannaKorp”). CannaKorp developed a single-use pre-measured pod and vaporizer system for consumers interested in vaporizing natural herbs, including cannabis. The patent-pending system is known as The Wisp™ and Wisp Pods™. The Wisp™ vaporizer system extracts the medically beneficial compounds more efficiently while simultaneously offering a much safer and more enjoyable experience than other alternatives.
Under the terms of the Cannakorp Exchange Agreement, we the Company issued 30,407,712 shares of its common stock to the exchanging CannaKorp stockholders in exchange for 99.8% of the outstanding common stock held by the CannaKorp stockholders. CannaKorp will continue to operate as a subsidiary. During the year ended, December 31, 2021, all of the warrants expired, none were exercised.
Agreements
Serious Seeds B.V.
Effective December 6, 2018, the Company and Canary entered into a Distribution, Collaboration and Licensing Agreement (“Serious Agreement”) with Serious Seeds B.V. (“Serious Seeds”), incorporated in the Netherlands, and Simon Smit (“Smit”), President of Serious Seeds. Under the Agreement, Canary was appointed the exclusive distributor in Canada and all other legal markets globally of Serious Seeds’ proprietary cannabis seed strains and Serious Seeds’ cannabis cuttings, dried flowers, extracts and seeds. In addition, under the Serious Agreement, Canary and Serious Seeds will develop certain “Collaborative Products” (defined in the Serious Agreement as cannabis seed strains created collaboratively using Serious Seeds’ intellectual property. During the term of the Serious Agreement, Canary owns all of the intellectual property related to the Collaborative Products.
Under the Serious Agreement, Smit granted Canary an exclusive license in Canada and all legal markets globally to Serious Seeds’ intellectual property including the right to use the service mark of Serious Seeds and all of the names of Serious Seeds’ proprietary cannabis seed strains including but not limited to Chronic, AK-47, White Russian, Bubble Gum, Kali Mist, Warlock, Double Dutch, Biddy, Early, Motavation and Strawberry-AKeil.
5
The initial term of the Serious Agreement is five (5) years and will be automatically renewed for consecutive five (5) terms subject to rights of termination upon one hundred and eighty (180) days prior notice. In consideration of the intellectual property rights granted by Smit to Canary, the Company will issue to Smit 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on the effective date of the Agreement. In addition, on the thirteenth (13) month following the effective date of the Agreement of the initial term, the Company will issue to Smit 5,208 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of Target common stock at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. Thereafter, from the fourteenth (14) month following the effective date of the Agreement and continuing through the sixtieth (60) month of the initial term, the Company will issue Smit 5,208 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 16,667 shares of Target common stock, each month, at varying exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $0.35 per share. All of the above warrants must be exercised on or before the two (2) year anniversary date of each of the warrant issuance dates.
In consideration of Canary’s appointment as Serious Seeds’ exclusive distributor in Canada, Canary will pay Serious Seeds certain royalties as follows:
| | 1st year: | | 2.00% of gross sales |
| 2nd year: | 2.25% of gross sales | ||
| 3rd year: | 2.50% of gross sales | ||

These Standard Licenses enable Canary to produce approximately 3,600kg of dried cannabis flower per year. Canary has curated a bank of 3,500 seeds, comprised of more than 125 strains, including the entire Serious Seeds collection. The Company has the capacity to grow 8 different strains at a time, within the facility’s eight (8) separate indoor flower rooms.
CL Investors Debt Purchase and Assignment Agreement
On June 15, 2020, the Company, its first-tier subsidiaries Visava CannaKorp Inc, and the Company’s second-tier subsidiary, Canary, entered into a Debt Purchase and Assignment Agreement (“Debt Agreement”) with CL Investors Inc. (“CLI”), a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. June 15, 2020 was the preliminary date of the Debt Agreement, and the Debt Agreement was not finalized until the later date as indicated below.
The CEO (and also a director) of the Company is the secretary and a shareholder of CLI plus the CEO’s brother is the President and sole director of CLI therefore the loan from CLI is classified under related party transactions.
CLI purchased from the Company for the sum of $2,115,840 (CAD 2,900,000) a debt obligation owing from Canary to the Company in the principal balance of $7,367,000 (CAD 10,600,000 (“Canary Debt”)). Upon receipt of the consideration, the Company loaned the full sum to Canary under terms of an unsecured, non-interest-bearing promissory note, subject to a covenant by the Company not to take any collection action so long as the Canary Debt remains unpaid to CLI. As of December 31, 2025, $3,648 (CAD 5,000) is still outstanding from CLI which is presented as other receivable on the consolidated balance sheet.
As a condition of the closing of the Debt Agreement, the terms of the Canary Debt were amended to provide for interest at 5% per annum with a maturity date of 60 months from the date of the Debt Agreement (“Term”). The Canary Debt will be repaid according to the following schedule:
6
For the purposes of this Note, “Net Revenue” will mean any and all revenue generated from Canary’s Licensed Facility (hereinafter defined) to which it is entitled net of applicable taxes and third-party expenses.
The repayment of the Canary Debt, as amended, is guaranteed by Visava and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary CannaKorp Inc. and secured by (i) a general security interest in the assets of the Company, Canary, Visava and CannaKorp, respectively; and (ii) a pledge by the Company of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Canary, Visava and CannaKorp. held by the Company. In addition to the foregoing guarantees, security interest and stock pledge, CLI has been granted an option, in lieu of repayment of the amended Canary Debt, to demand, in its sole and absolute discretion the transfer, assignment and conveyance of 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary.
Furthermore, the President and sole director of CLI has been granted an option to acquire the remaining 25% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary.
Effective August 14, 2020, the Debt Agreement was amended (“Amendment”) to provide that CLI will purchase from Rubin Schindermann, a director of the Company, 500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of the payment by CLI to Rubin Schindermann of $72,960 (CAD 100,000) and the issuance to Schindermann of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In consideration of the foregoing, Mr., Schindermann resigned as a director of the Company and from any and all administrative and executive positions with the Company’s subsidiaries Visava, Canary Rx. and CannaKorp, respectively. In addition, the Company issued Common Stock Purchase Warrant for 10,000,000 shares of Target common stock to CLI as consideration for the Debt Agreement. Refer to Note 19 for additional details on warrants. The combined impact of both transactions resulted in debt issuance cost of $251,518. This debt issuance cost will be amortized over the term of the debt on a straight-line basis.
The transactions contemplated by the Debt Agreement and the Amendment closed on August 14, 2020.

Item 1A Risk Factors.
In addition to all other information set out in this Report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report, our business is subject to a number of risks that are uniquely applicable to the cannabis business generally and specifically in the cannabis business in Canada. Other risks and uncertainties that we do not presently consider material, or of which we are not presently aware, may become important factors that affect our future financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Cannabis Business and the Cannabis Industry in the United States
As of the date of this report, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have any operations, employees or corporate offices based in United States.
Our business is dependent on state laws pertaining to the marijuana industry, which are uncertain and subject to change
Our business depends on the continued legalization and regulation of marijuana at the state level through legislation, rulemaking and voter-approved ballot measures. The marijuana industry is subject to evolving laws, regulations and enforcement priorities, and there can be no assurance that current state-law protections and regulatory regimes will remain in place. Any repeal, amendment, delay in implementation, adverse regulatory development or change in enforcement priorities could restrict or eliminate our ability to conduct business in one or more jurisdictions, reduce demand for our products, increase compliance costs and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law.
The possession and use of marijuana are illegal under U.S. federal and certain states’ laws, which may negatively impact our business. The use of marijuana is regulated by both the U.S. federal government and state governments and state and U.S. federal laws regarding marijuana are often in conflict. Federal law criminalizing the use of marijuana pre-empts state laws that legalize the possession and use of marijuana for medical and recreational purposes. Any such changes in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws could adversely affect our ability to possess or cultivate marijuana. Marijuana is a Schedule 1 controlled substance under the Controlled Substance Act (“CSA”) meaning that it has a high potential for abuse, has not currently “accepted medical use” in the United States, lacks accepted safety for use under medical supervision, and may not be prescribed, marketed or sold in the United States. No drug product containing natural cannabis or naturally-derived cannabis extracts have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in the U.S. or obtained registration from the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”) for commercial production and the DEA may never issue the registrations required of the commercialization of such products. We will continue to assess potential strategic acquisitions of existing or new businesses in the cannabis industry, should we determine that such activities are in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. Any such pursuit would involve additional risks with respect to the regulation of cannabis, particularly, if the federal government determines to actively enforce all federal laws applicable to cannabis.
Laws and regulations affecting the cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our business.
Local, state and federal marijuana laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which require us to incur potentially substantial costs associated with compliance and could alter our business plans. In addition, violations of these laws or allegations of such violations could disrupt our business and materially affect our operations. In addition, it is possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. We cannot predict the nature of any such future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business.
Any potential growth in the cannabis industry continues to be subject to new and changing state and local laws and regulations.
Continued development of the cannabis industry is dependent upon continued legalization of cannabis at the state level and a number of factors could curtail or halt progress in this area, even where there is public support for legislative action. Any delay or halt in the passing or implementation of legislation legalizing cannabis use, its sale and distribution, or the re-criminalization or restrictions on cannabis use at the state level could negatively impact our business. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws and regulations or their interpretations or applications. It is possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be materially adverse to our business.
8
Our potential customers, clients and companies with which we may elect to invest directly may have difficulty accessing the services of U.S. banks which may make it difficult for them to operate.
On February 14, 2014, the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCen”) issued rules allowing banks to legally provide financial services to state-licensed cannabis businesses consistent with the Bank Secrecy Act obligations. A memorandum issued by the U.S. Justice Department to federal prosecutors reiterated the guidance previously given, this time to the financial industry that banks can do business with legal marijuana businesses and “may not” be prosecuted. However, the FinCen guidelines fall short of the explicit legal authorization that the banking industry had requested the government provide. To date, it is not clear if any banks have relied on the FinCen guidelines to take on legal cannabis companies as clients. Because the use, sale and distribution of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law, many banks will not accept deposits from or provide other bank services to a business involved with cannabis. The inability to open bank accounts may make it difficult for our existing and potential customers to operate.
Operational risks of the cannabis industry.
Companies involved in the cannabis industry face intense competition, may have limited access to services of banks, may have substantial burdens on company resources due to litigation, complaints or enforcement actions and are heavily dependent on receiving necessary permits and authorization to engage in the cultivation, possession or distribution of cannabis. Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operational histories, significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources and larger client bases than us and there can be no assurances that we will be able to successfully compete against these or other companies.
Rescheduling Uncertainty
On May 21, 2024, DOJ published a proposed rule to reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III. On December 18, 2025, President Trump signed an Executive Order directing the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) to expedite the rescheduling of cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III under the CSA. The rescheduling process, which requires formal rulemaking under the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”), is expected to include a public comment period and may be subject to legal challenge. There can be no assurance as to the timing or outcome of the rulemaking.
If finalized, rescheduling to Schedule III would not constitute federal legalization of cannabis, nor would it resolve the fundamental conflict between federal and state cannabis laws. The continued classification of cannabis as a controlled substance—even under Schedule III—means that cannabis operations in the United States remain subject to federal enforcement risk.
Rescheduling could lower barriers to entry for well-capitalized institutional competitors in both the United States and in Canada, including pharmaceutical and consumer-goods companies that have historically been unable or unwilling to participate in the cannabis industry due to its Schedule I status. Increased competition from such entrants could adversely affect our market share, pricing, and profitability in Canada, or in any future operations in the United States.
Hemp More Narrowly Defined
Impactful to licensees in the United States, on November 12, 2025, President Trump signed H.R. 5371, the Continuing Appropriations, Agriculture, Legislative Branch, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Extensions Act, 2026, into law. Section 781, effective 365 days after enactment, amends Section 297A of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 and narrows the federal definition of “hemp.” As amended, “hemp” is defined using a total tetrahydrocannabinols standard, including tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (“THCA”), rather than the prior delta-9 THC-only standard. In addition, the amended law excludes certain intermediate and final hemp-derived cannabinoid products from the definition of hemp, including final hemp-derived cannabinoid products containing more than 0.4 milligrams combined total per container of total tetrahydrocannabinols (including THCA) and other cannabinoids that have similar effects, or are marketed to have similar effects, as tetrahydrocannabinol, as determined by the Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Risks Related to Our Cannabis Business and the Cannabis Industry in Canada
The Canadian cannabis market is subject to an evolving and complex regulatory framework that may adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The Cannabis Act (S.C. 2018, c. 16) has governed the legal production, distribution, and sale of cannabis for recreational adult use in Canada since October 17, 2018, and was amended effective October 17, 2019 to permit the sale of cannabis edibles, extracts, and topicals. Since legalization, the Canadian cannabis industry has experienced significant market maturation, including persistent oversupply conditions, sustained wholesale and retail price compression, consolidation among licensed producers, and ongoing competition from the illicit market, which continues to capture a material share of total cannabis sales in Canada.
The Cannabis Act imposes significant restrictions on the marketing, branding, packaging, product formats, potency, and distribution channels for cannabis products. Health Canada administers the federal regulatory framework and retains broad authority to modify the conditions of cultivation, processing, and sale licenses, impose additional compliance requirements, or amend the regulations under the Cannabis Act. Licensees are subject to ongoing inspection, audit, and compliance monitoring by Health Canada, which has enhanced its inspection capacity and enforcement focus as the industry has matured. Individual provinces and territories maintain separate regulatory frameworks governing retail distribution, pricing, and market access, resulting in a fragmented national market with varying competitive dynamics across jurisdictions. The Government of Canada has completed the legislative review required under the Cannabis Act, and any resulting amendments to the Cannabis Act, its regulations, or other applicable laws and policies could adversely affect our business.
The Canadian federal excise duty framework, which imposes the greater of a flat-rate duty or an ad valorem duty on cannabis products, has been a persistent source of margin pressure for licensed producers. Industry participants have advocated for reform of the excise duty structure, and the federal government has announced plans to explore a transition to a single national excise stamp to reduce administrative burden. However, no excise duty relief has been enacted for cannabis products.
Additionally, we are subject to the risk that our Canadian licenses may not be renewed on acceptable terms, that Health Canada may impose additional conditions on our licenses, or that regulatory enforcement actions may result in fines, penalties, suspension, or revocation of our licenses. Compliance with the evolving Canadian regulatory framework requires significant ongoing investment in regulatory affairs, quality assurance, and operational processes, and any failure to maintain compliance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The recreational adult-use cannabis market in Canada may experience periods of oversupply, which could adversely affect pricing, sales and profitability
The Canadian adult-use cannabis market is highly competitive and may, at times, experience excess production relative to consumer demand. If licensed producers cultivate or manufacture more cannabis than the market can absorb, and we are unable to redirect that supply to export or other permissible channels, the available supply of cannabis may exceed demand. Any such imbalance could result in lower market prices, increased price competition, inventory write-downs, higher storage or disposal costs, and reduced margins. In addition, our ability to export excess inventory is limited by applicable laws and regulations in Canada and in foreign jurisdictions, and there can be no assurance that export opportunities will be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If oversupply occurs and persists, our revenues, results of operations and ability to achieve or maintain profitability could be materially adversely affected.
We are required to comply with federal, state or provincial and local laws in each jurisdiction where we conduct our business
Various federal, state or provincial and local laws and regulations govern our business in the jurisdictions in which we operate and propose to operate. These laws and regulations include those relating to health and safety and the production, management, transportation and storage of cannabis. Compliance with these laws and regulations requires concurrent compliance with complex federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations. Compliance with these laws and regulations requires significant financial and managerial resources. A determination that we are not in compliance with these laws and regulations could harm our business. It is impossible to predict the cost or effect of such laws and regulations on our current and future business.
10
We may seek to enter into strategic alliances or acquisitions with third parties that we believe will have a beneficial impact on our business and there are risks that such alliances or acquisitions will not enhance our business in the desired manner.
We may expand, or in the future enter into, alliances or acquisitions with third parties that we believe will complement or enhance our existing business. Our ability to take advantage of existing or new alliances or acquisitions is dependent upon a number of factors such as the availability of suitable candidates and working capital. Future strategic alliances or acquisitions could result in the incurrence of debt, costs and contingent liabilities. In addition, there can be no assurances that future alliances or acquisitions will achieve the expected benefits to our business or that we will be able to consummate future strategic alliances or acquisitions on satisfactory terms, or at all.
We may not be able to identify and execute future acquisitions or to successfully manage the impact of such transactions on our business.
Acquisitions and/or other strategic business combinations involve many risks including (i) disruption of our existing business; (ii) the distraction of management away from the ongoing oversight of our existing business operations; (iii) incurring additional indebtedness; and (iv) increasing the scope and complexity of our operations. A strategic transaction may result in unforeseen obstacles or costs in implementing the transaction or integrating any acquired business into our existing operations.
Our cannabis cultivation business is subject to risks associated with an agricultural business.
One of the major aspects of our business operations is cultivating cannabis which is an agricultural process. As such, that part of our business is subject to the risks associated with the agricultural business, including crop failure presented by weather, plant diseases, and similar agricultural risks. Although we will grow our cannabis products indoors under climate-controlled conditions, there can be no assurances that natural elements, such as insects and plant diseases, will not disrupt our production activities or have an adverse effect on our business.
We may not be able to attract or retain key personnel with sufficient experience in the cannabis industry and we may not be able to attract, develop and retain additional employees required for our development and future success.
Our success is dependent to a great extent on the performance of our management team and certain key employees and our ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly qualified and skilled employees who are in high demand. The loss of the services of any key personnel, or an inability to attract other suitably qualified persons when needed, could prevent us from executing our business plan and we may not be able to find adequate replacements on a timely basis, if at all. Currently, we do not maintain any key-person insurance on the lives of any of our key personnel. Furthermore, each director and officer of a company that holds a license is subject to the requirement to obtain and maintain a security clearance from Canada Health under the Cannabis Act. A security clearance is valid for not more than five years and must be renewed before the expiration of the current security clearance. There is no assurance that any of our existing personnel who presently or may in the future require a security clearance will be able to obtain or renew such clearance or that new personnel who require a security clearance be able to obtain one. A failure by an individual in a key operational position to maintain or renew a security clearance could result in a reduction or complete suspension of our operations.
Industry Consolidation and Counterparty Risk
In recent years, a number of companies across the Canadian cannabis supply chain have sought creditor protection or other insolvency relief under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (R.S.C. 1985, c. C-36) (“CCAA”) or the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (R.S.C. 1985, c. B-3) (“BIA”). This trend reflects persistent structural challenges in the industry, including oversupply, wholesale price compression, elevated excise duty burdens, limited access to capital, and a timeline to profitability that has exceeded the expectations of many market participants.
We are exposed to counterparty credit risk through our third-party relationships in the industry, some or all of which may be experiencing financial distress or may file for creditor protection. In the event that a material customer, distribution partner, or supplier becomes insolvent, we may experience losses on accounts receivable, disruption to our supply chain or distribution channels, or inability to recover prepayments or deposits. In addition, continued industry consolidation and court-supervised sale processes may enable existing or new competitors to acquire assets, licenses, or production capacity on attractive terms, which could increase competitive pressure in our markets.

There can be no assurance that market conditions will not deteriorate further or that the failure of one or more significant counterparties will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Employees
As of December 31, 2025, we had 40 employees which include Anthony Zarcone, Chief Executive Officer.
We have contracted several independent contractors and consultants to provide a range of information technology and marketing services who do not receive cash compensation but receive shares of our common stock as compensation. This mitigates any need for full or part-time employees for these services.

Once management has completed their assessment, the Company will proceed accordingly and advance in that determined direction moving forward.

Cybersecurity Risk
In recent years there has been an increased risk of information and security risks due to increased sophistication and activities of perpetrators of cyber attacks. The computers are used for our everyday business operations including mobile devices and other online means of activities to connect with our customers, employees, suppliers and other parties. This extensive use give rise to cybersecurity risks such as system disruption, theft and the release of confidential information. There are numerous sensitive information stored in the system and intellectual property, including employees, customers and other financial information.
In the future we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to enhance information security measures to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities. We can provide no assurances that the measures we have implemented to prevent security breaches and cyber incidents will be effective in the event of a cyber-attack.
Item 2. Properties
We do not own any properties at this time and do not have presently any agreements to acquire any properties.
Our principal executive office is located at 20 Hempstead Drive, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Our subsidiary, Canary, leases a 44,000 square foot facility located in Norfolk County, Ontario to produce medical and recreational cannabis.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
During the year ended December 31, 2019, a terminated employee of Canary has filed a lawsuit against the Company amounting to approximately $1,529,414 (CAD $2,100,000) in Ontario, Canada. Currently, the Company is defending its position and believes that the ultimate decision will be in favor of the Company.
A complaint for damages of $150,000 was lodged against CannaKorp by the former Chief Financial Officer of CannaKorp for outstanding professional fees. No claim has been registered. The management is of the view that no material losses will arise in respect of the legal claim at the date of these consolidated financial statements.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, a claim for damages of approximately $95,245 (CAD $130,778) was lodged against Canary by a vendor for breach of contract. The management is of the view that no material losses will arise in respect of the legal claim at the date of these consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2025, $100,795 (CAD 138,150) has been recorded in the Canary’s payable based on past accruals. Due to the uncertainty of timing and the amount of estimated future cash flows, if any, relating to this claim, no further amount has been recognized.

Our common stock is subject to Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, known as the Penny Stock Rule, which imposes requirements on broker/dealers who sell securities subject to the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, brokers/dealers must make a special suitability determination for purchasers of the securities and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to sale. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) also has rules that regulate broker/dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in that security is provided by the exchange or system. The Penny Stock Rules require a broker/dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker/dealer also must provide the customer with the current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker/dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker/dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. These disclosure requirements have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock. As a result of these rules, investors may find it difficult to sell their shares.
As of the date of this report, we have 617,025,999 shares of common stock issued and outstanding held by 430 stockholders of record.
Dividend Policy
To date, we have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock. It is anticipated that our future earnings will be retained to finance our continuing development. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors has the discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future. Payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and any other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
As of December 31, 2025, the Company generated revenue of $3,881,003 and had loss of $1,359,682. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $11,052,097 and an accumulated deficit of $32,306,526.
The Company’s independent auditors have issued a report raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
At present, the Company is running its operations at its Simcoe Facility cultivating Premium Cannabis and started generating revenue (though its investment in JVCo) within the Canadian wholesale cannabis market. However, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon these operations successfully generating cashflow for the Company, financial support from its stockholders, its ability to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and/or to successfully locate and negotiate with a business entity for the combination of the target company with the Company.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value in accordance with US GAAP. The determination of inventory cost involves significant estimates, primarily related to the cost per gram used to value inventory at the end of the reporting period. Small changes in these underlying assumptions can materially affect the unit cost and, consequently, the total inventory balance reported in the financial statements.
Balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and 2024
Cash and restricted cash
On December 31, 2025, we had cash of $100,410 (excluding restricted cash of $8,390) compared to $1,869,767 (excluding restricted cash of $7,992) as of December 31, 2024. The decrease is due to decrease in revenue and the settlement of loans.
The change in restricted cash is due to foreign exchange conversion of balances in Canadian Dollar into United States Dollar.

Sales tax recoverable allowance on December 31, 2025 is $6,750 (December 31, 2024: $5,795).

On October 8, 2019, the Company was granted licenses to cultivate, process and sell cannabis pursuant to the Cannabis Act (Bill C-45). On June 4, 2021, Canary received its Sales License amendment from Health Canada.

The Company generated revenue of $3,881,003 during the current year and $6,591,625 in the comparable year ended in 2024. The revenue represents the sale of cannabis product, and the entire revenue was sold to seventeen customers (2024: seventeen).
Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
Our expenses are classified primarily into advisory and consultancy fees, management fees, salaries and wages, legal and professional fees, and depreciation expense. The decrease in operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024 is due to decrease in office and general, depreciation expense and operating lease expense.
Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 primarily represented consulting fees of $171,237 (2024: $256,206), management fees of $405,316 (2024: $476,994), legal and professional charges of $202,010 (2024: $218,801) comprising legal, review, accounting and Edgar agent fee, travel expenses of $nil (2024: $7,302), operating lease expenses of $193,947 (2024: $217,422) office and general of $418,618 (2024: $515,570) and depreciation expense amounting to $898,403 (2024: $916,213).
Changes in other income and expenses were due to: (1) the revaluation of the warrant and convertible debt liabilities on each quarter-end which reduced significantly in magnitude since a significant number of warrants expired during the current year ended; (2) increase in the principal balance of higher interest rate bearing loans led to increased interest expense; (3) & (4) net income from the joint venture is only for two quarters as the agreement with JV is terminated, as a result, the share of income and other income has decreased significantly; (5) no impairment of goodwill related to Canary’s acquisition and (6) significant decrease in exchange income during the year due to unfavorable exchange rate.
Other income and expenses comprised, change in fair value of derivative and warranty liability amounting to negative $140 (2024: positive $374), gain on settlement of debt amounting to $nil (2024: Gain on settlement of debt $36,511), interest and bank charges amounting to $1,044,219, (2024: $1,153,574), exchange loss of $98,569 (2024: income of $172,564), interest income in the amount of $34,062 (2024: $30,821), impairment of goodwill in the amount of $nil (2024: $nil), recovery of sales tax recoverable $653 (2024: $6,089), and debt issuance cost $29,744 (2024: 48,997).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital deficit of $11,052,097 and an accumulated deficit of $32,306,526 (2024: Working capital deficit of $9,994,548 and an accumulated deficit of $30,946,844).

The Company anticipated that its future operations will generate positive cash flows starting in 2026.

Operating activities
Operating activities used cash of $842,425 compared to the cash provided of $2,162,684 during the prior year. This is due to change in accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and inventory.
Investing activities
Investing activities provided cash of $81,379 compared to cash used of $178,978 during the prior year. This was because the company have received the proceeds back from convertible note.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Target Group Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Target Group Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and 2024 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit and a working capital deficit. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
F-2
Valuation of Inventory
Description of the Critical Audit Matter
As discussed in Notes 4 and 8 to the financial statements, the Company’s inventory consists of finished goods and work-in-process. The Company utilizes an average cost methodology which relies on assumptions related to yield estimates, as well accumulated costs including direct labor and materials, and an allocation of indirect labor, material, and overhead costs. The valuation of inventory involves significant complexity and judgment in applying the relevant accounting standards when auditing management’s estimates and conclusions with regard to inventory balances.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our principal audit procedures to evaluate management’s calculation of capitalized inventory costs included, among other procedures, the following:
| ● | We evaluated the appropriateness and consistency of management’s methods and assumptions used in the identification, recognition, and measurement of inventory costs. |
| ● | We tested the completeness and accuracy of inputs entered into the Company’s overhead calculations and performed recalculations of allocation methods utilized. |
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2017. |

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS THEN ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024

As of the date of this report, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have any operations, employees or corporate offices based in United States.
Joint Venture Agreement Termination; Consolidation of JVCo with Canary

2. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Such consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Visava and CannaKorp, and BlueSky Logistics, LLC. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
3. Going Concern
The Company has earned revenue during the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company had a working capital deficit of $
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In order to maintain its current level of operations, the Company will require additional working capital from either cash flow from operations, sale of its equity or issuance of debt. However, the Company currently has no commitments from any third parties for the purchase of its equity. If the Company is unable to acquire additional working capital, it will be required to significantly reduce its current level of operations.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and deposits at banking institutions as well as all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. The Company did not have cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Restricted cash represents deposits made to the Company’s bank as a requirement to use the bank’s credit card which is not available for immediate or general business use.
F-9
Accounts receivable
Account receivable consists of amounts due to the Company from customers as a result of the Company’s normal business activities. Account receivable is reported on the balance sheets net of an estimated allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated uncollectible receivables based on historical experience, assessment of specific risk, review of outstanding invoices, and various assumptions and estimates that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and recognizes the provision as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance after appropriate collection efforts have been exhausted and when it is deemed that a balance is uncollectible. The company records the allowance based on past history and if there are doubts on the recoverability. On December 31, 2025 amounts due from
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined on a weighted average cost basis, and market being determined as the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company records write-downs of inventory that is obsolete or in excess of anticipated demand or market value based on consideration of product lifecycle stage, technology trends, product development plans and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand, and such differences may have a material effect on recorded inventory values. Inventory write-downs are charged to the cost of revenue and establish a new cost basis for the inventory. The cost is determined on the basis of the average cost. Overhead costs are also allocated to inventory including salaries and utilities.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are reported at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets, commencing when the assets become available for productive use, based on the following estimated useful lives:
Depreciation is calculated using the following terms and methods:
Furniture & office equipment | | Straight-line | | |
Machinery & equipment |
| Straight-line |
| |
Software |
| Straight-line |
| |
Leasehold improvements |
| Straight-line |
| Lease period |
An item of equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from the derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying value of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period the asset is derecognized. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
Shipping and Handling Cost
Payments by customers to us for shipping and handling costs are included in revenue on the consolidated statements of operations, while our expense is included in cost of goods sold. Shipping and handling for inventory, if any, are included as a component of inventory on the consolidated balance sheets, and in cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations when the product is sold.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives that are not being amortized, such as trade names, are tested at least annually for impairment and are written down if impaired. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be fully recoverable.
The Company evaluates indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 350. A qualitative assessment is first performed to determine whether it is more likely than not that the asset’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. If this assessment
F-10
indicates potential impairment, a quantitative test is performed by comparing the asset’s carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows. If the carrying amount exceeds the expected cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds fair value.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method after electing to delay the adoption of the accounting standard as the Company qualified as an “emerging growth company”. Since the Company did not have any contracts as of the effective day, therefore, there was no material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption of the new standard. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contracts with our customers are satisfied. Our performance obligation generally consists of the promise to sell our finished products to our customers, wholesalers, distributors or retailers. Control of the finished products is transferred upon shipment to, or receipt at, our customers’ locations, as determined by the specific terms of the contract. Once control is transferred to the customers, and the performance obligation is completed, revenue is recognized. Payment for the Company’s products is generally due upon delivery or as specified in the contract with the customer.
Amounts received in advance of product delivery, including customer prepayments or deposits, are recorded as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue is classified as a liability until the Company satisfies its performance obligations by delivering the related products to the customer.
The Company generated revenue of $
The revenue was concentrated to
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian-based subsidiary is the Canadian dollar, and the US-based parent is the U.S. dollar. In addition, effective April 1, 2019, the Company changed its functional currency from United States Dollar to Canadian Dollar thereby having an impact on additional paid-in capital and accumulated comprehensive income (loss). The presentation currency of the Company has remained unchanged at United States Dollar. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the historical rate on the date of the transaction. All exchange gains or losses arising from the translation of these foreign currency transactions are included in net income (loss) for the year. In translating the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Canadian subsidiaries from their functional currency into the Company’s reporting currency of United States dollars, balance sheet accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using an average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation, if any, are included in cumulative other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high-quality banking institutions. The Company does
F-11
Income Taxes
Under ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2025 there were no deferred taxes due to the uncertainty of the realization of net operating loss or carry forward prior to expiration.
Operating Leases
The Company leases office space and the production facility under operating lease agreements. The lease term begins on the date of initial possession of the leased property for purposes of recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease renewal periods are considered on a lease-by-lease basis and are generally not included in the initial lease term.
Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share provides for calculations of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income (loss) of the Company. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Convertible Notes Payable and Derivative Instruments
In accordance with ASU 2017-11, warrants with a down round feature are treated as equity, with no adjustment for changes in fair value at each reporting period. The Company accounted for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with ASC 815. ASC 815 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments. ASC 815 provides for an exception to this rule when convertible notes, as host instruments, are deemed to be conventional, as defined by ASC 815-40. The Company accounts for convertible notes deemed conventional and conversion options embedded in non-conventional convertible notes which qualify as equity under ASC 815, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, which provides guidance on accounting for convertible securities with beneficial conversion features. Accordingly, the Company records, as a discount to convertible notes, the intrinsic value of such conversion options based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt.
F-12
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based payments in accordance with the provision of ASC 718, which requires that all share-based payments issued to acquire goods or services, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values, net of estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Compensation expense related to share-based awards is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services, as prescribed by ASC 718-10, at either the fair value of the services rendered or the instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more readily determinable. The Company issues compensatory shares for services including, but not limited to, executive, management, accounting, operations, corporate communication, financial and administrative consulting services.
Marketing Expenses
Marketing, advertising and promotion expenditures are expensed in the annual period in which the expenditure is incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company, on a regular basis, reviews the carrying amount of long-lived assets for the existence of facts or circumstances, both internally and externally, that suggest impairment. The Company determines if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is impaired based on anticipated undiscounted cash flows, before interest, from the use of the asset. In the event of impairment, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. Fair value is determined based on the appraised value of the assets or the anticipated cash flows from the use of the asset or asset group, discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| ● | Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. |
| ● | Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. |
| ● | Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. |
The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The derivative liabilities of the promissory convertible notes are valued Level 3, refer to Note 18 for further details.

Segment Reporting
The Company operates as a operating segment in accordance with FASB ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. All financial information is presented on a consolidated basis and reviewed by Chief Executive Officer as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The CODM uses consolidated net loss, as presented in the consolidated statement of operations, to assess segment performance and allocate resources.

The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 and may be applied prospectively for interim reporting periods. The Company has adopted as of the first quarter of 2025 ASU No. 2023-09, which had no impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations and statement disclosures.

Business Acquisition
ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” requires that all business combinations be accounted for using the acquisition method and that certain identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”) requires goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets with indefinite useful lives not be amortized, such as trade names, but instead tested at least annually for impairment (which the Company tests each year end, absent any impairment indicators) and be written down if impaired. ASC 350 requires that goodwill be allocated to its respective reporting unit and that identifiable intangible assets with finite lives be amortized over their useful lives.
Visava/Canary

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company has identified no circumstances which would call for further evaluation of goodwill impairment related to Canary (December 31, 2024 the Company has identified no circumstances which would call for further evaluation of goodwill impairment related to Canary). Only change in goodwill from 2023 to 2025 is due to exchange rate fluctuations.
During the year ended, December 31, 2025, all of the warrants expired,
F-17
Goodwill
The Company tests for impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit level. In assessing whether goodwill is impaired, the Company utilizes the two-step process as prescribed by ASC 350. The first step of this test is qualitative analysis in which it compares the fair value of the reporting unit, to the carrying amount, including goodwill. In this step company assesses the likelihood of impairment by examining factors such as continued revenue growth, favorable regulatory developments, and market growth trends, overall financial performance of the Company. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, no further work is required, and no impairment loss is recognized. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit is potentially impaired then step two that is quantitative analysis of the goodwill impairment test would need to be performed to measure the amount of an impairment loss, if any. In the second step, the impairment is computed by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill is greater than the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss in the amount of the excess is recognized and charged to the statement of operations.

15. Operating Lease Right-Of-Use Assets and Lease Liability
The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective approach and applying the standard’s transition provisions at January 1, 2020, the effective date. The Company made an accounting policy election to exclude from balance sheet reporting those leases with initial terms of 12 months or less. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination generally depends on whether the arrangement conveys to the Company the right to control the use of an explicitly or implicitly identified fixed asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed to the Company if the Company obtains the rights to direct the use of and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from using the underlying asset. The Company has lease agreements which include lease and non-lease components, which the Company has elected to account for as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. Lease expense for variable lease components is recognized when the obligation is probable.
Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ASC 842 requires a lessee to discount its unpaid lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or if that rate cannot be readily determined, its incremental borrowing rate. As an implicit interest rate is not readily determinable in the Company’s leases, the incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor. Options for lease renewals have been excluded from the lease term (and lease liability) for the majority of the Company’s leases as the reasonably certain threshold is not met.
The Company does not own any real property. It currently leases
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company subleased its executive premises to a third party that makes rent payments directly to the landlord. However, if the sub-lessee cancels its sub-lease agreement with the landlord during the Company’s lease term with the landlord (ending on August 30, 2023), the Company will be responsible for making rent payments for the period from the date of cancellation by the sub-lessee to August 30, 2023.
The Company’s subsidiary, Canary, is a party to a lease agreement (initiated in July 2014) with respect to its facility to produce Craft Cannabis at Scale. The lease agreement was amended effective January 1, 2020, where the amended term starts on May 1, 2020 and provides the Company with an option to extend for three (3) additional terms of ten (

Preferred Stock
Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by the board of directors. The board of directors may fix the designation, powers, preferences, and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof without any further vote or action by the stockholders of the Company, except that no holder of preferred stock shall have pre-emptive rights. Any shares of preferred stock so issued would typically have priority over the common stock concerning dividend or liquidation rights. The board of directors does not at present intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized stock unless otherwise required by law.
Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Stock”)
Dividends shall be declared and set aside for any shares of Series A Stock in the same manner and amount as for the Common Stock. Series A Stock, as a class, shall have voting rights equal to a multiple of 2X the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding that are entitled to vote on any matter requiring shareholder approval. The Series A Stockholders shall not vote as a separate class but shall vote together with the common stock on all matters, including any amendment to increase or decrease the authorized capital stock. Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the corporation, the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders shall be distributed to the holders of common stock and the holders of the Series A Stock ratable without any preference to the holders of the Series A Stock. Shares of Series A Stock can be converted at any time into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at the rate of One Hundred (
Common Stock
Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights.
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratable in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors in its discretion from funds legally available therefore.
Holders of common stock have no pre-emptive rights to purchase the Company’s common stock. There are no conversion or redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock. The Company may issue additional shares of common stock which could dilute its current shareholder’s share value.

Deferred tax assets
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
There were no changes in or disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure for the period covered by this report.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 COSO Framework or COSO). Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025.
Management’s Report of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer each concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to lack of overall system of internal controls as communicated by the auditors to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during its fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence
Director Independence
Barry Katzman is not considered independent because he is chairman of the Joint Venture (JVCo)’s board where Canary holds 100% of the voting equity interest in JVCo. Saul Niddam is not considered independent because he is the sole executive officer and director of CannaKorp, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. In determining whether a director is “independent” the Company follows the criteria established by NASDAQ.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
Effective December 20, 2019, Jerry Zarcone, the brother of Anthony Zarcone, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and a director of the Company, entered into a loan agreement with the Company pursuant to which Jerry Zarcone agreed to loan the Company up to
20
$2,032,943 (CAD 2,786,380) for working capital purposes. The loan was provided in two tranches with one bearing an annual interest rate of 16% while the other bearing an annual interest rate of 43.26%. The loan is secured by all assets owned by the Company and its subsidiaries including leasehold improvements and matures on August 31, 2026, or such earlier date as demanded by lender. Additional detail is provided in Note 16. The full text of the loan agreement is included in this report as Exhibit 10.20, 10.21, 10.22, 10.23, 10.29, 10.30, 10.31, 10.32, 10.33, 10.34, 10.35 and 10.36.
On June 15, 2020, the Company, and its subsidiaries, entered into a Debt Purchase and Assignment Agreement (“Agreement”) with CL Investors Inc. (“CLI). June 15th was the preliminary date of the agreement, and the agreement was not finalized until the later date as indicated below. The CEO of the Company is a director of the Company, the Secretary of CLI, a shareholder of CLI and the brother of the CEO is the President and sole director of CLI therefore the loan from CLI is classified under related party transactions.
Pursuant to the Agreement, CLI purchased from the Company for the sum of $2,115,840, (CAD 2,900,000) a debt obligation owing from Canary to the Company in the principal balance of $7,733,760 (CAD 10,600,000 (“Canary Debt”)). Upon receipt of the consideration, the Company loaned the full sum to Canary under terms of an unsecured, non-interest-bearing promissory note, subject to a covenant by the Company not to take any collection action so long as the Canary Debt remains unpaid to CLI.
The Canary debt owed to CLI from Canary bears an interest rate of 5% per annum and matures on August 14, 2025. The repayment of the debt is guaranteed by the Company and its subsidiaries plus secured by a general security interest in the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and a pledge by the Company of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Canary, Visava and CannaKorp Inc. held by the Company. In addition to the above, CLI has been granted an option, in lieu of repayment of the amended Canary Debt, to demand, in its sole and absolute discretion the transfer, assignment and conveyance of 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary. Furthermore, the President and sole director of CLI has been granted an option to acquire the remaining 25% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary.
Effective August 14, 2020, the Agreement was amended (“Amendment”) to provide that CLI will purchase from Rubin Schindermann, a director of the Company, 500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of the payment by CLI to Rubin Schindermann of $72,960 (CAD 100,000) and the issuance to Mr. Schindermann of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In consideration of the foregoing, Mr., Schindermann resigned as a director of the Company and from any and all administrative and executive positions with the Company’s subsidiaries. In addition, the Company issued Common Stock Purchase Warrant for 10,000,000 shares of Target common stock to CLI as consideration for the Agreement.
