  1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

C21 Investments Inc. (the "Company" or "C21") was incorporated on January 15, 1987, under the Company Act of British Columbia. The Company is a publicly traded company with its registered office is 1900-885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3H4.

Pursuant to a change of business announced on January 29, 2018 to the Cannabis industry, the Company commenced acquiring and operating revenue-producing cannabis operations in the USA.

On June 15, 2018, the Company's common shares were delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") at the Company's request and on June 18, 2018 the Company commenced trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE"), completed its change of business to the cannabis industry and commenced trading under the symbol CXXI. The Company registered its common shares in the United States and on May 6, 2019, its shares were cleared by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority for trading on the OTC Markets platform under the U.S. trading symbol CXXIF. On September 28, 2020, the Company was upgraded and began trading on the OTCQB® Venture Market.

As at October 31, 2021, the Company operates in two segments, recreational cannabis in Oregon, USA and recreational and medical cannabis in Nevada, USA (note 17). Both segments are engaged in the cultivation of and manufacturing of cannabis flower products, vape products and extract products for wholesale distribution, while the Nevada segment also has retail sales.

In the United States, 36 states, the District of Columbia, and four out of five U.S. territories allow the use of medical cannabis. The recreational adult-use of cannabis is legalized in 17 states, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, and the District of Columbia. At the federal level, however, cannabis currently remains a Schedule I controlled substance under the Federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970. Under U.S. federal law, a Schedule I drug or substance has a high potential for abuse, no accepted medical use in the United States, and a lack of accepted safety for the use of the drug under medical supervision. As such, even in those states in which marijuana is legalized under state law, the manufacture, importation, possession, use or distribution of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law.

This has created a dichotomy between state and federal law, whereby many states have elected to regulate and remove state-level penalties regarding a substance which is still illegal at the federal level.

There remains uncertainty about the US federal government's position on cannabis with respect to cannabis-legal status. A change in its enforcement policies could impact the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on December 16, 2021 by the directors of the Company.

  1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Statement of compliance

These interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting and in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Company's most recent audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2021 ("annual financial statements"). These interim financial statements do not contain all of the information required for full annual financial statements and is intended to provide users with an update in relation to events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Company since the end of the last annual reporting period. It is therefore recommended that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and Interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee.

Functional and presentation currency

These interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the Company's presentation currency. The functional currency of the Company's subsidiaries is U.S. dollars. The parent company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. All amounts presented are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

Foreign currency translation

Foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rate at the reporting date. All differences are recorded in the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss). Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates and any revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. The resulting exchange differences are recognized in cumulative translation adjustment.

Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in Note 2 to the annual financial statements.

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments.

Areas requiring a significant degree of estimation relate to the measurement of biological assets and inventory, fair value measurements, estimation of recoverable amounts relating to inventory, long-lived assets and goodwill and share-based compensation. Areas requiring a significant degree of judgment relate to the determination of business combinations, indicators of impairment of long-lived assets, useful lives, depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

All of the Company's trade and other receivables have been reviewed for indicators of impairment. At October 31, 2021, the allowance for lifetime expected credit losses of accounts receivable was $nil (January 31, 2021 - $1,975).

  1. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

The Company's biological assets consist of cannabis plants. The continuity for biological assets for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 and year ended January 31, 2021, was as follows:

Balance, January 31, 2020 $ 1,408,271
Increase in biological assets due to capitalized costs 9,504,528
Fair value adjustment on biological assets 1,618,306
Transferred to inventory upon harvest (11,190,323 )
Balance, January 31, 2021 $ 1,340,782
Increase in biological assets due to capitalized costs 4,298,264
Fair value adjustment on biological assets 3,791,921
Transferred to inventory upon harvest (7,241,173 )
Balance October 31, 2021 $ 2,189,794

Biological assets are valued in accordance with IAS 41 - Agriculture ("IAS 41") and are presented at their fair values less costs to sell up to the point of harvest. The Company's biological assets are primarily cannabis plants, and because there is no actively traded commodity market for plants or dried product, the valuation of these biological assets is obtained using valuation techniques where the inputs are based upon unobservable market data (Level 3).

The valuation of biological assets is based on a market approach where fair value at the point of harvest is estimated based on selling prices less the costs to sell at harvest. For in process biological assets, the fair value at point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth. As at October 31, 2021, on average, the biological assets were 54% complete as to the next expected harvest date.

The significant unobservable inputs and their range of values are noted in the table below:

Effect on Fair Value as of <br>October 31:
Significant Inputs and Assumptions Range of Inputs Sensitivity 2021 2020

  1. LEASE LIABILITIES AND RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS

Under IFRS 16 - Leases, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. For contracts that are, or contain, leases, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and lease liability at the commencement date. If the contract does not contain a lease, then the contract is classified as a service that is not reported on the statement of financial position.

For the contracts identified as leases as defined under IFRS 16, the Company applied the lessee accounting model pursuant to IFRS 16 and considered all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the inception of the contract (but not future events that are not likely to occur).  Lease liabilities were calculated with discount rates ranging from 10-20%.

Based on all the facts and circumstances at the inception of the contract, the Company has determined that all identified agreements contain a lease as defined by IFRS 16, including:

Entity Name/Lessee Asset Contains a lease? Useful life (years)
Silver State Cultivation LLC Land/Building Yes 12
Silver State Relief LLC (Sparks) Land/Building Yes 12

  • Incomes taxes paid in the period totaled $3,145,893. Of total income taxes paid, $261,893 pertained to amounts due in connection with amended returns filed for the year ended January 31, 2020 and $2,884,000 pertained to payments made for the year ended January 31, 2021.
  • The Company issued 19,774 common shares valued at $21,787 to the vendors of EFF for a partial settlement of the commitment to issue shares.

Supplemental and non-cash transactions during the nine months ended October 31, 2020

  • There were interest payments of $1,283,544.
  • No income taxes were paid.
  • The Company issued 7,132,041 common shares valued at $2,582,903 to complete the purchase of two parcels of land from SDP Development
  • The Company issued 95,849 common shares value at $38,415 as partial repayment of the $175,000 convertible promissory note related to the Megawood acquisition.
  1. TAXATION

The Company reconciles the expected tax expense at the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% to the amount recognized in the interim condensed statements of income and comprehensive income.

As the Company operates in the cannabis industry in the United States, it is subject to U.S. Internal Revenue Code section 280E for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and therefore, is subject to the disallowance of ordinary and necessary business deductions for income tax purposes pursuant to section 280E. Consequently, the Company is only allowed to deduct 1) direct production costs and indirect production costs incident to and necessary for production and 2) costs incurred to purchase goods that are resold, including transportation or other necessary charges incurred in acquiring possession of the goods. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC section 280E. However, the State of Oregon does not conform to IRC section 280E and thus the Company deducts all operating expenses on its Oregon corporate tax return. Additionally, the State of Nevada does not assess income tax and therefore no income tax provision for Nevada has been calculated.

  1. COMMITMENTS

The Company and its subsidiaries are committed to payments on to third parties on long-term debt and for right-of-use assets with related parties for land, office space, and equipment in Nevada and Oregon. At October 31, 2021, the Company has the following future minimum payments:

  1. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Capital Management

The Company's objectives when managing its capital are to ensure there are sufficient capital resources to continue operating as a going concern and maintain the Company's ability to ensure sufficient levels of funding to support its ongoing operations and development. The purpose of these objectives is to provide continued returns and benefits to the Company's shareholders. The Company's capital structure includes items classified in shareholders' equity.

The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business considering changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the Company's underlying assets.

At October 31, 2021, the Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements, with the exception of restricted cash posted as a deposit.

Fair value

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices 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 that are not based on observable market data.

The following table shows the carrying amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities by category:

**** October 31, 2021 January 31, 2021
Financial assets at amortized cost ^(1)^ $ 3,563,235 $ 6,494,793

On February 12, 2020, the parties agreed to the following modified terms: the Company purchased the two Southern Oregon farms from SDP Development constituting over 60 acres of real property housing the two outdoor cannabis cultivation facilities totaling 80,000 square feet of canopy, rent reduction on the three Phantom properties in Central Oregon, and a release from the obligation to purchase the sixth property in Southern Oregon. In exchange, the SDP vendors received 7,132,041 common shares of the Company with a fair value of $2,582,903. The consideration exceeded the fair market value of the land acquired and as a result, the Company recorded acquisition reorganization costs of $1,204,740. The Company has three remaining leases with SDP Development.

On November 16, 2020, the Company amended the terms of the three Nevada leases with Double G Holdings (a Company controlled by the Company's President and CEO). The term of the two dispensary leases and the warehouse lease was extended to November 30, 2027 with a right to extend for a further five years and with an annual increase to the base rent of 3% commencing January 1, 2022.

During the nine months ended October 31, 2021, 426,100 warrants were exercised by a Director of the Company for 426,100 shares. The warrants had an exercise price of C$1.50 and proceeds totaled $498,246 (C$639,150).

  1. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On November 18, 2021, the Company announced that it had reached an agreement with the vendors of Phantom Farms to extinguish the 4,500,000 'earn out' shares in exchange for 1,300,000 common shares of C21. The shares will be delivered once the Company obtains all necessary shareholder information. The agreement will eliminate the impact and volatility of derivative liabilities associated with the Phantom earn-out shares.

UNITED STATES LEGAL CANNABIS INDUSTRY

The Company operates in the cannabis industry and its operations are located in the United States.  Cannabis operations are regulated at the state level.  While the Company's operations are legal in the states in which it operates, on a Federal level in the United States, cannabis is not legal.  Please refer to the Company's MDA for the years ended January 31, 2021 and 2020 for detailed disclosure in this regard.

COVID-19 GLOBAL PANDEMIC

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. While the ultimate severity of the outbreak, including ongoing variants, and its impact on the economic environment remains uncertain, the Company is monitoring this closely. The Company's priority during the COVID-19 pandemic is the protection and safety of its employees and customers and it is following the recommended guidelines of applicable government and health authorities.

The Company takes all reasonable steps to ensure staff are appropriately informed and trained to promote a culture of health, safety, and continuous improvement, especially during these difficult times for public health and safety due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Wherever possible, the Company will continue to adopt generally accepted health and safety best practices from non-cannabis-related industries and follows all health and safety guidelines issued by the United States Centers for Disease Control and all orders from relevant provincial, state and local jurisdictions and authorities.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The Company is a vertically integrated cannabis company that cultivates, processes, distributes and sells quality cannabis and hemp-derived consumer products in the United States. The Company is focused on value creation through the disciplined acquisition and integration of core retail, manufacturing, and distribution assets in strategic markets, leveraging industry-leading retail revenues together with high-growth potential, multi-market branded consumer packaged goods ("CPG").

Between January 2018 and May 2019, C21 acquired five US-based cannabis businesses, one in Nevada and four in Oregon. Our branded CPGs include Phantom Farms and Hood Oil, both produced in-house in both Nevada and Oregon.  Due to the state-by-state regulations of the legal US cannabis industry, there is no ability to move cannabis product across state borders, therefore production in one state must be sold in that same state.

Strategic Focus and Growth

Our flagship operations in Sparks and Fernley, Nevada under the Silver State Relief brand, continue their strong financial performance generating healthy cash flow and satisfied customers.

The Company previously optimized our Oregon operations by shedding non-core assets, consolidating production, processing, and wholesale operations, and placing the remaining Oregon assets into management agreements to eliminate costs and facilitate future sale agreements.

The Company previously strengthened our financial position by:

  • Terming out the remaining balance on the $30 million secured promissory note for a period of 30 months; and

  • Entering into a debenture backstop agreement, relieving the Company of the obligation to repay the outstanding convertible debentures totaling $6.6 million due on December 31, 2020 and January 30, 2021, which resulted in substantially all the outstanding convertible debentures converting into common shares.

The Company's current strategic initiatives include extending our Nevada retail footprint where we have a proven track record of success, targeting $100 million of annual revenue, continuing our disciplined approach to growth and financing, and internally producing product to expand our Nevada retail footprint, which includes the ongoing expansion of our Nevada cultivation operations.

The Nevada cultivation expansion continues with Phase 1 of the expansion now complete at a cost of $2.4m.  The first harvest from the new rooms took place in October 2021.  This generated an 18% increase in yields over historic levels depending on the strain of flower.  Based on significant yield improvements witnessed in the new grow rooms, C21 will retrofit lighting in its original grow rooms ahead of Phase 2 of the expansion.  The retrofit will begin in January 2022.  After completion of the lighting retrofit we will produce approximately twice as much high grade flower relative to pre-expansion levels.

*Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure, and as such there is no standardized definition for the term.  The Company's adjusted EBITDA included above is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.  See "Non-IFRS measures" below for additional information.  See further discussion below on page 6.

Sequential Revenue for Q3 is down 9.1% with Nevada sales lower by 7.6%.  The State of Nevada public records indicate that cannabis sales in the State fell 20.9% between April 2021 and September 2021 (latest records available). This is believed to be due to more distributed customer discretionary spending while pandemic restrictions and stimulus eased.

Cash SG&A expenses are selling, general and administration expenses, but exclude the non-cash costs of depreciation/amortization and share based compensation.

Net income for the period of $3.3 million, impacted by non-cash items, the largest is the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, which was a gain of $2.4 million for the quarter, discussed below.

Cash balance fell due to catch-up payment of corporate income taxes, slight decrease in the working capital deficit in the quarter to $1.25m from $1.29m.

"Revenue" in the quarter ending October 31, 2021 was down 14% versus prior year Q3, due to a drop in revenue in both Oregon and Nevada operations; Nevada revenues fell by 12%.  For the nine months ended October 31, 2021, Revenues are down 2.6% over the prior year, with Nevada revenues YTD October 31, 2021 increasing by 2.7% over the prior year.

"Gross profit" fell in the current quarter to 54% versus 62% or the prior year Q3 due to FV adjustments. Year to date nine months to October 31, 2021, gross profit has risen to 52% from 49% over the prior year.

Expenses

"General and administration" expenses increased to $1,863,641 (versus prior year Q3 - $1,703,686). The largest item included in this category are Salaries and wages, which fell ($724,403 vs $820,676). Offsetting this is one-time spending on professional fees of $229,069 which were incurred and written off in the quarter.

"Depreciation and amortization" include provisions for fixed assets, intangibles, and amortization of right-of-use assets (leases of buildings, warehouses, and offices). The total depreciation and amortization during Q3 is $698,778, of which $444,839 is included in expenses, with the remainder of $253,939 included in Inventory and therefore is included as part of 'Inventory expensed to cost of Sales'.

"Share based compensation" is a non-cash item and reflects the issuance of stock options to employees and officers and directors.

p. 5

"Interest expenses" increased from $103,342 in the prior year Q3 to $357,006 in the current Q3.  This reflects the effect of two short term liabilities being repaid over the past 12 months offset by adjustments made in prior year Q3. A Promissory note bearing interest at 9.5% has been paid down from $15,800,000 to $9,626,667 in the past 12 months.  Convertible debentures outstanding at prior year Q3 of $6,574,107 and bearing interest at 10% per annum were all converted to common shares or repaid just prior to January 31, 2021.

"Change in fair value of derivative liabilities" is a periodic revaluation of the earn out shares outstanding to vendors of businesses purchased by the Company.  These earn out shares are revalued using a Monte Carlo simulation.  The fair value of this liability will increase with an increase in the stock price of the Company and vice-versa.  The change in fair value must be recorded through the Companies profit or loss statement.  As a result, a share price decrease period over period, will result in a gain, and an increase in net income.  The change in fair value of $2.4m in Q3 and $7.8m YTD is due to a fall in the company's share price since January 31, 2021.

"Current income tax expense" is US federal tax of 21% levied on earnings and subject to Section 280e, which denies the deduction of most expenses, other than cost of goods sold.  Comparative figures for periods ending October 31, 2020 reflect an adjustment for over accrual from the prior year.

"Other comprehensive income (loss)", specifically the cumulative translation adjustment, comes about in IFRS when translating the balances between the parent company (investments made in C$) and the US subsidiaries (US$).  These foreign exchange gains or losses at each reporting date result from translation of the C$ amounts to US$ (which is our reporting currency).

Non-IFRS Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

"Adjusted EBITDA" is a supplemental, non-GAAP financial measure. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before depreciation and amortization (excluding rent classified as lease amortization), income taxes, and interest. Additionally, the Company's Adjusted EBITDA presented above excludes fair value adjustments, accretion, impairment charges, one-time transaction costs and all other non-cash items. The Company has presented "Adjusted EBITDA" because its management believes it is a useful measure for investors when assessing and considering the Company's continuing operations and prospects for the future.  Furthermore, "Adjusted EBITDA" is a commonly used measurement in the financial community when evaluating the market value of similar companies.  "Adjusted EBITDA" is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with IFRS, and this metric should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the measurement of the Company's performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. "Adjusted EBITDA," as calculated and reconciled in the table above, may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements used by other issuers and is not necessarily a measure of the Company's ability to fund its cash needs.  Figures have been restated to match current presentation.

Adjusted EBITDA below has been restated to more align with other issuers in the industry.  This includes a broader disclosure of the costs making up this calculation to enable users to compare performance. Interest expense includes interest costs arising from IFRS recording of Right of Use (ROU) assets and totals for the 3 months ended October 31, 2021- $98,622 and October 31, 2020- $34,549; and 9 months ending October 31, 2021 - $297,868 and October 31, 2020- $79,046. These have not been adjusted in this calculation below. One-time spending on professional fees (Special projects) of $229,069 were incurred and written off in the current quarter and have been added back for purposes of adjusted EBITDA.

NEVADA

The Company acquired Silver State Relief and Silver State Cultivation on January 1, 2019.  The Nevada business operates in Sparks and Fernley, Nevada, and is the flagship operation of C21.  The Silver State Relief dispensary in Sparks, Nevada was the first dispensary in Nevada and opened in July 2015 selling medical cannabis.  In July 2017, the sale of recreational cannabis commenced, and in January 2019 a second dispensary location was opened in Fernley, Nevada.  Silver State operates indoor cultivation and processing which produces our own retail products for sale in our two dispensaries.  We lease 104,075 sq ft in a warehouse separate from the dispensaries, this lease includes an option to buy the whole 158,000 sq ft warehouse.  Construction of the indoor grow facility commenced in 2015 and was completed with production capacity of approximately 5,000 pounds of biomass (3,450 pounds of flower and 1,550 pounds of trim) which was primarily sold within the Company's Silver State Relief dispensaries.  This years' expansion of the facility completed in October 2021 has added a further 3,750 pounds of biomass.  A retrofit of the lighting in the original grow rooms slated to begin in January 2022 will add another 1,500 pounds of biomass.

Almost all this production is sold through the two Silver State dispensaries.  Excess production is sold into the wholesale market.  Wholesale sales amounted to $0.6 million in sales during the year ended January 31, 2021.

Silver State had total sales of $33.5 million during the year ended January 31,2021.  Hood Oil and Phantom Farms brands are two of the brands purchased via the Oregon acquisitions by the Company.  Commencing in the second half of 2019, we started to manufacture and package these branded products at Silver State.  These brands now make up two of the three largest selling brands in our dispensaries.

Our two dispensaries, the 8,000-square foot retail dispensary in Sparks and the 6,000-square foot dispensary located in Fernley, collectively serviced a total of more than 415,000 recreational and medical cannabis customers during the nine months ended October 31, 2021 (prior year 401,000), with over 700 SKUs in each store.

Consistent quality, market-leading pricing, and superior customer service translate to industry-leading sales per square foot ($9,315/sq. ft. for the nine months ending October 31, 2021).  Likewise, because of its substantial purchasing leverage, Silver State consistently offers customers among the lowest prices within the state.

The Sparks dispensary captured 15.6% of Washoe County, Nevada sales during the six months to September 30, 2021 (the latest available data from the State of Nevada).  The two dispensaries captured 3.1% of Nevada cannabis sales during the same period.

Nevada Dispensary Statistics

The table below highlights two metrics for dispensary performance, the average dollars spent by customers in our stores ($/transaction) and the average sales per day (Sales $000/day).

Year ended Jan 31, 2022 Year ended January 31, 2021
Q3 Q2 Q1 Q4 Q3 Q2 Q1 Q4
$/transaction $ 59.4 $ 59.9 $ 61.5 $ 59.7 $ 57.2 $ 63.3 $ 61.7 $ 47.3
Sales $000/day $ 85.5 $ 91.4 $ 98.6 $ 95.2 $ 96.5 92.7 $ 76.8 $ 87.4

The current drop in our sales metrics since April 2021 is consistent with industry trends; the State of Nevada has reported a 20.9% drop in cannabis sales from April to September 2021 (the last month for which data is available), and other Western USA states have seen similar drops. This reflects more distributed customer discretionary spending while pandemic restrictions and stimulus eased.

With the delivery only pandemic restrictions starting in mid-March 2020, spending shot up over $150/transaction on some days.  Customers were increasing their spend due to uncertainty of supply.  As customers became more comfortable with the restrictions this number has receded.  Pandemic restrictions have ended in the dispensaries, except a requirement to wear a mask if staff or customers are not vaccinated.

Currently, delivery and curbside pick-up account for about 21% of transactions and 25% of revenue.

We can see the Nevada dispensary record daily sales for Q1 this year of $98,600/day and a monthly sales record in March 2021 of $102,300/day.  Sales and transactions fell in Q2 and Q3 which is consistent with the Nevada government statistics discussed above.

OREGON

Our restructured Oregon business now operates from the Phantom Farms locations in Central and Southern Oregon.  We operate outdoor and greenhouse active canopy totaling 80,000 square feet.  We also operate a 7,700 square indoor foot grow facility with three grow rooms and a 5,600 square foot warehouse facility which includes an extraction facility and wholesale distribution.  The Company has a total cultivation capacity of approximately 5,100 pounds of cannabis which produces "A" grade Phantom flower and extracts the remainder of its biomass in its CO2 extraction facility.

Divestment of non-core Oregon assets

On January 7, 2021, the Company announced a definitive agreement to sell select non-core Oregon assets for $1.3 million.  After approval by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission to the transfer of the licenses the sale was closed on April 23, 2021.  This sale included the Company's Portland processing and dispensary licenses, some processing equipment, one brand, and the assumption by the buyer of two building leases.

One Oregon location remains under third-party management pursuant to management agreements which commenced June 15, 2020 whereby the management company has assumed all leasehold liabilities and costs at the facility.

Oregon Earn-Out Settlement

Effective November 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement in connection with the entitlement of certain individuals to receive earn-out shares pursuant to the purchase agreement governing the acquisition of Phantom Farms ("Phantom Earn-Out Shares").  Pursuant to the agreement, individuals who were entitled to receive up to 4.5 million Phantom Earn-Out Shares pursuant to the purchase agreement are entitled to 1.3 million common shares of C21 in exchange for their entitlement to receive the Phantom Earn-Out Shares.

MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The Company's financial statements and the other financial information included in this MDA are the responsibility of the Company's management and have been examined and approved by the Board. The accompanying audited financial statements are prepared by management in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and include certain amounts based on management's best estimates using careful judgment. The selection of accounting principles and methods is management's responsibility.

Management recognizes its responsibility for conducting the Company's affairs in a manner that complies with the requirements of applicable laws and established financial standards and principles and maintains proper standards of conduct in its activities. The Board supervises the financial statements and other financial information through its audit committee, which is comprised of a majority of non-management directors.

The audit committee's role is to examine the financial statements and recommend that the Board approve them, to examine the internal control and information protection systems, and all other matters relating to the Company's accounting and finances. To do so, the audit committee meets annually with the external auditors, with or without the Company's management, to review their respective audit plans and discuss the results of their examination. This committee is responsible for recommending the appointment of the external auditors or the renewal of their engagement.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021, were authorized for issuance on December 16, 2021 by the Board.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes of the Company, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

CREDIT RISK

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts, accounts receivable, and its notes receivable from acquisition targets. The Company's cash is deposited in bank accounts held with a bank in Canada, a trust company in Canada, and three credit unions in Nevada, Washington and Colorado; and accordingly, there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using a bank that is a high credit quality financial institution as determined by rating agencies. The Company's notes receivables are placed with acquisition targets that are under definitive agreements, in which closing is based primarily on receipt of regulatory approval. If an unlikely event occurred which delayed regulatory approval for an extended period of time or permanently, the risk of default on these notes would be increased based on the liquidity of the acquisition targets.

LIQUIDITY RISK

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on management's ability to raise required funding through future equity or debt issuances. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management and the Board are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.

p. 11

The Company's consolidated financial statements for three and six months ended July 31, 2021, have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue its operations and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The Company reports an accumulated deficit of $65,240,759, and a working capital deficit of $1,247,898 as at October 31, 2021.

The Company has generated significant positive cash flow for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021, and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2021.  The Statement of Cash Flows for the nine months ended October 31, 2021, shows cash provided by operations of $5.5 million ($8.7 million - nine months ended Oct 31, 2020).

The working capital deficit has fallen from $27.0 million at January 31, 2020, to $1,247,898 as at October 31, 2021.  This strengthening of our financial position has resulted in the removal of going concern disclosure in Note 1 of the financial statements in the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended January 31, 2021, and for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021.

There remains uncertainty about the U.S. federal government's position on cannabis with respect to cannabis-legal states. A change in its enforcement policies could impact the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and have a material adverse impact on the business.

INTEREST RATE RISK

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not subject to any interest rate volatility as its long-term debt instruments and convertible notes are carried at a fixed interest rate throughout their term.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company's objectives when managing its capital are to ensure there are enough capital resources to continue operating as a going concern and maintain the Company's ability to ensure sufficient levels of funding to support its ongoing operations and development. The purpose of these objectives is to provide continued returns and benefits to the Company's shareholders. The Company's capital structure includes items classified in debt and shareholders' equity.

The Board does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business considering changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the Company's underlying asset.

The Company works with its capital advisors, Needham & Company based in California and CB1 Capital based in New York, to identify the best strategic options to execute our corporate growth plans, as well as increasing financial flexibility in managing our debt.

U.S. INDUSTRY BACKGROUND AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

INDUSTRY BACKGROUND AND TRENDS

The emergence of the legal cannabis sector in the United States, both for medical and adult use, has been rapid as more states adopt regulations for its production and sale. Today 60% of Americans live in a state where cannabis is legal in some form and almost a quarter of the population lives in states where it is fully legalized for adult use.

The use of cannabis and cannabis derivatives to treat or alleviate the symptoms of a wide variety of chronic conditions has been generally accepted by a majority of citizens with a growing acceptance by the medical community as well. A review of the research, published in 2015 in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found evidence that cannabis can treat pain and muscle spasms. The pain component is particularly important, because other studies have suggested that cannabis can replace patients' use of highly addictive, potentially deadly opiates - meaning cannabis legalization literally improves lives.

p. 12

Polls throughout the United States consistently show overwhelming support for the legalization of medical cannabis, together with strong majority support for the full legalization of recreational adult-use cannabis. It is estimated that 94% of U.S. voters support legalizing cannabis for medical use. In addition, 66% of the U.S. public supports legalizing cannabis for adult recreational use. These are large increases in public support over the past 40 years in favor of legalized cannabis use.

Notwithstanding that 36 states and the District of Columbia have now legalized adult-use and/or medical cannabis, cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law with cannabis listed as a Schedule I drug under the U.S. Federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970 ("CSA").

Currently the Company only operates in the states of Oregon and Nevada. The Company may expand internally within Nevada or into other states within the United States that have legalized cannabis use either medicinally or recreationally and expand internationally.

FEDERAL REGULATORY UPDATE

On December 7, 2021, U.S. Congressman, Representative Ed Perlmutter (D - Colorado), confirmed the Secured and Fair Enforcement Banking Act of 2019, commonly known as the SAFE Banking Act, was removed from the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the omnibus spending bill pending in Congress, by a conference committee in the U.S. Senate.

For a complete summary of the Federal regulatory environment, please refer to the Company's MDA for the years ended January 31, 2021 and 2020, and the six months ended July 31, 2021, for detailed disclosure in this regard.

NEVADA REGULATORY UPDATE

For a summary of the Nevada regulatory environment, please refer to the Company's MDA for the years ended January 31, 2021, and 2020, for detailed disclosure in this regard.

OREGON REGULATORY UPDATE

For a summary of the Oregon regulatory environment, please refer to the Company's MDA for the years ended January 31, 2021, and 2020 for detailed disclosure in this regard.

RISK FACTORS

For a comprehensive list of the risk factors relating to the business and securities of the Company, please refer to the Company's MDA for the years ended January 31, 2021, and 2020 for detailed disclosure in this regard.  The Company will face a few challenges and significant risks in the development of its business due to the nature of and present stage of its business. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or currently deemed immaterial by the Company, may also impair the operations of or materially adversely affect the securities of the Company. If any such risks occur, the Company's shareholders could lose all or part of their investment and the business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects of the Company could be materially adversely affected. Some of the risk factors previously disclosed are interrelated and, consequently, readers should read such risk factors in connection with one another.

The acquisition of any of the securities of the Company is speculative, involving a high degree of risk and should be undertaken only by persons whose financial resources are enough to enable them to assume such risks and who have no need for immediate liquidity in their investment. An investment in the securities of the Company should not constitute a major portion of a person's investment portfolio and should only be made by persons who can afford a total loss of their investment.

All information, other than statements of historical facts, included in this MDA that addresses activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future is forward-looking information. Forward-looking information includes, among other things, information regarding: statements relating to the business and future activities of, and developments related to, the Company, including such things as the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic with reductions of operating (including marketing) and capital expenses and revenues, future business strategy, competitive strengths, goals, expansion and growth of the Company's business, operations and plans, including the Company's positioning in the United States cannabis industry, including the continued performance of the Company's operations generally, and specifically its Nevada retail operations, including the continued profitability of the Company's Nevada operations, including the Company's ability to continue to service its debt through operating cash flows, including the Company's ability to pursue growth opportunities and generate future growth for the Company by scaling and replicating its profitable model in Nevada, including the Company's ability of to secure non-dilutive debt financing, including the continued performance of the Company's brands and the expectations as to the development and distribution of the Company's brands and products, including the continued demand for cannabis products, including the timing of the completion of any acquisitions or dispositions and expectations of whether such proposed transactions will be consummated on the current terms or otherwise and contemplated timing, expectations and effects of such proposed transactions, estimates of future cultivation, manufacturing and extraction capacity, expectations as to the development and distribution of the Company's brands and products, the expansion into additional U.S. and international markets, any potential future legalization of adult-use and/or medical cannabis under U.S. federal law, expectations of market size and growth in the United States and the states in which the Company operates or contemplates future operations and the effect such growth will have on the Company's financial performance, expectations for other economic, business, regulatory and/or competitive factors related to the Company or the cannabis industry generally, and other events or conditions that may occur in the future.

Readers are cautioned that forward-looking information and statements are based on reasonable assumptions, estimates, analysis and opinions of management of the Company at the time they were provided or made in light of their experience and their perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking information and statements.

Forward-looking information and statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are based upon a number of estimates and assumptions of management at the date the statements are made including among other things assumptions about: the contemplated acquisitions and dispositions being completed on the current terms and current contemplated timeline; development costs remaining consistent with budgets; ability to manage anticipated and unanticipated costs; favorable equity and debt capital markets; the ability to raise sufficient capital to advance the business of the Company; favorable operating and economic conditions; political and regulatory stability; obtaining and maintaining all required licenses and permits; receipt of governmental approvals and permits; sustained labor stability; favorable production levels and costs from the Company's operations; the pricing of various cannabis products; the level of demand for cannabis products; the availability of third party service providers and other inputs for the Company's operations; the Company's ability to conduct operations in a safe, efficient and effective manner; the ability of the Company to restructure and service its secured debt; the availability of the Company to secure a non-dilutive debt financing on terms acceptable to the Company;  and the ability of the Company's operations to continue to perform and continue in the ordinary course in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. While the Company considers these assumptions to be reasonable, the assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, social, economic, political, regulatory, competitive and other risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors that could cause actual performance, achievements, actions, events, results or conditions to be materially different from those projected in the forward-looking information and statements. Many assumptions are based on factors and events that are not within the control of the Company and there is no assurance they will prove to be correct.

p. 14

Risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking information and statements include, among others, risks relating to U.S. regulatory landscape and enforcement related to cannabis, including governmental and environmental regulation, public opinion and perception of the cannabis industry, risks related to the ability to consummate any proposed acquisitions or dispositions on the proposed terms and the ability to obtain requisite regulatory approvals and third party consents and the satisfaction of other conditions, risks related to reliance on third party service providers, the limited operating history of the Company, risks inherent in an agricultural business, risks related to proprietary intellectual property, risks relating to financing activities, risks relating to the management of growth, increasing competition in the cannabis industry, risks associated to cannabis products manufactured for human consumption including potential product recalls, reliance on key inputs, suppliers and skilled labor (the availability and retention of which is subject to uncertainty), cybersecurity risks, ability and constraints on marketing products, fraudulent activity by employees, contractors and consultants, risk of litigation and conflicts of interest, and the difficulty of enforcement of judgments and effecting service outside of Canada, limited research and data relating to cannabis, risks and uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it may continue to have on the global economy and the retail sector, particularly the cannabis retail sector in the states in which the Company operates, as well as those risk factors discussed elsewhere herein, including under "Risk Factors".

Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information and statements.

While the Company may elect to update such forward-looking information and statements at a future time, it assumes no obligation for doing so except to the extent required by applicable law.
