Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

As at and for the period ended March 31, 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

1. The Company and going concern

NXT Energy Solutions Inc. (the "Company" or "NXT") is a publicly traded company based in Calgary, Alberta Canada and listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”).

NXT's proprietary Stress Field Detection ("SFD®") technology is an airborne survey system that utilizes the principles of quantum mechanics to infer stress anomalies of exploration interest. The method can be used both onshore and offshore to remotely identify areas conducive to fluid entrapment in order to recommend areas with commercial hydrocarbon and/or geothermal potential.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of NXT have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America ("US GAAP”).

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect adjustments, all of which are normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect fairly the financial position and results of operations for the respective periods.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that NXT will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

The events described in the following paragraphs highlight that there is substantial doubt about NXT’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been issued. The Company’s current cash position is not expected to be sufficient to meet the Company’s obligations and planned operations for a year beyond the date that these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been issued.

Since 2022, the Company has deferred payment of certain operating costs, including payroll and other general and administrative costs. During 2023 and to date in 2024 the Company completed private placements which resulted in raising an additional net proceeds of $5,079,612 (Notes 7 and 10) and completed an SFD^®^ survey which generated operating funds. Further financing options that may or may not be available to the Company include issuance of new equity, debentures or bank credit facilities. The need for any of these options will be dependent on the timing of securing new SFD^®^ related revenues and obtaining financing on terms that are acceptable to both the Company and the financier.

NXT continues to develop its pipeline of opportunities to secure new revenue contracts. However, the Company’s longer-term success remains dependent upon its ability to convert these opportunities into successful contracts, to continue to attract new client projects, expand its revenue base to a level sufficient to exceed fixed operating costs, and generate consistent positive cash flow from operations. The occurrence and timing of these events cannot be predicted with sufficient certainty.

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern basis was not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate for these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of the assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used. These adjustments could be material.

As at and for the period ended March 31, 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

Use of Estimates and Judgements

In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, NXT was required to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the amount and timing of recording assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses since the determination of these items may be dependent on future events. The Company uses the most current information available and exercises careful judgment in making these estimates and assumptions. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used are based upon management's best estimate as at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period when determined. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Certain estimates and judgments have a material impact where the assumptions underlying these accounting estimates relate to matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate or judgment is made or are subjective. In 2024 and 2023, the estimates and judgments included the assessment of impairment indicators of intellectual property and recognition of SFD^®^ related revenue.

The Company reviews intellectual property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company considers both internal and external factors when assessing for potential indicators of impairment of its intellectual property, including the consideration of historical and forecasted SFD^®^ related revenues, market capitalization, control premiums, and the SFD^®^ related revenue multiples compared to industry peers. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company first compares the total of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows or the estimated sale price to the carrying value of an asset. If the carrying value exceeds these amounts, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the intellectual property.

Other accounting estimates and judgments that may have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include: the forward-looking assumptions related to the going concern assumption, the estimated useful lives of intellectual property and property, plant and equipment, lease interest rates and terms, and the assumptions used to measure stock-based compensation expense.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2024 have been prepared by management in accordance with US GAAP and by applying the same accounting policies and methods as used in preparing the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. There are no new policies that were adopted on January 1, 2024.

| | | 3,582,747 | | 2,917,617 | | 665,130 |

On March 22, 2024 the Company extended its Aircraft lease for three years, until March 28, 2027. The Company will own the aircraft at the end of the lease term. Terms of the lease extension include an interest rate of 12%, and monthly payments of US$40,189. The Company has an early purchase option to acquire the aircraft on any of the following date, March 28, 2025, September 28, 2025, March 28, 2026 or September 28, 2026. The purchase price would be the amortized value of the lease liability, plus a four-month interest penalty. The lease is being treated as a finance lease. As a result of the lease extension the Right of Use Assets and lease obligations have been increased as follows:

| | | 25,546,610 | | 14,076,615 | | 11,469,995 |

SFD^®^ Hydrocarbon Right

During 2015, NXT acquired the rights to the SFD^®^ technology for use in the exploration of hydrocarbons (“Hydrocarbon Right”) from Mr. George Liszicasz, the former President and CEO of NXT (“CEO”), and recorded the acquisition as an intellectual property asset on the balance sheet. The asset was recorded at the fair value of the consideration transferred, including the related tax effect of approximately $25.3 million.

The Hydrocarbon Right is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 15 years. The annual amortization expense expected to be recognized is approximately $1.7 million per year for a five-year aggregate total of $8.5 million.

As at and for the period ended March 31, 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

SFD^®^ Geothermal Right

The Company acquired the SFD^®^ technology rights for geothermal resources (“Geothermal Right”) from the former CEO on April 18, 2021. One portion of the consideration deliverable by the Company in connection with the acquisition of the Geothermal Right is still outstanding. A US$200,000 payment will become due in the event that the Company's cash balance exceeds CDN$5,000,000 due to receipt of specifically defined funds from operations. The cost of this milestone will be recognized when it is deemed probable that the milestone will be achieved, by a special committee of the board of directors (the “Board”) comprised entirely of independent directors. As of March 31, 2024 the remaining milestone is still deemed not probable of being achieved.

The current book value of the Geothermal Right is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 20 years. The annual amortization expense expected to be recognized is approximately $13,781 per year for a 5-year aggregate total of approximately $68,902.

On November 8, 2023 the Company issued the first tranche of a multi-tranche unsecured convertible debenture (the "November Debentures"). The November Debentures bear interest at 10.0% per annum, paid quarterly in arrears, and are due and payable two years after issuance of the November Debentures. The November Debentures are convertible into common shares in the capital of NXT at a fixed conversion price of US$0.1808 (CDN$0.25).

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

As at and for the period ended March 31, 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

On January 12, 2024, the Company closed the final tranche of the November Debentures for an additional US$722,000 (approximately CDN$966,036). Including the final tranche, the Company issued a total of US$1,872,000 (approximately CAD$2,543,636) of the November Debentures, which will allow the subscribers to obtain an aggregate of up to 10,353,982 common shares. Insiders which include MCAPM, LP and Michael P. Mork (“Mork Capital”) and all of the directors of NXT, were issued November Debentures valued, in the aggregate principal amount, at US$1,522,000 (approximately CDN$2,076,776).

Subject to shareholder approval at the next annual general meeting of shareholders, Mork Capital will have the right to own, after conversion of all of their November Debentures, 22,526,321 common shares. This represents approximately 28.8% of the issued and outstanding common shares as of the date of these financial statements (after giving effect to the conversion of the full amount of November Debentures). In addition, the Company has agreed to appoint a representative from Mork Capital to its Board in the near future.

On May 31, 2023 the Company issued a two-year term convertible debenture for US$1,200,000 (CDN$1,631,954) to Ataraxia Capital and an additional US$200,000 (CDN$265,560) on July 10, 2023. The terms of the convertible debenture include an annual interest rate of 10%, paid quarterly in arrears, a fixed conversion price of US$0.143 per common share. The debenture may also be converted into voting preferred shares with an annual dividend rate of 10% paid per quarter. The preferred shares are not transferable, but may be converted on a one-to-one basis into common shares. The convertible debenture is payable on demand and is secured by a general security agreement, subordinate to the long-term debt.

The DSUs plan is a long-term incentive plan that permits the grant of DSUs to qualified directors. DSUs granted under the DSUs plan are to be settled at the retirement, resignation or death of the Board member holding the DSUs

Restricted Stock Units:

RSUs entitle the holder to receive, at the option of the Company, either the underlying number of shares of the Company's common shares upon vesting of such units or a cash payment equal to the value of the underlying shares. The RSUs vest at a rate of one-third at the end of each of the first three years following the date of grant. Historically the Company settled the RSUs that vested with shares and cash.

On February 21, 2024 the Company granted 1,035,000 RSUs to employees and officers which will vest each year for three years.

A continuity of the number of RSUs, including fair value (“FV”) which are outstanding at the end of the current period and as the end of the prior fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 are as follows:

For the three months ended							For the year ended

Employee Share Purchase Plan:

The ESP Plan allows employees and other individuals determined by the Board to be eligible to contribute a minimum of 1% and a maximum of 10% of their earnings to the plan for the purchase of common shares in the capital of the Company, of which the Company will make an equal contribution. Common shares contributed by the Company may be issued from treasury or acquired through the facilities of the TSX. Historically, the Company has elected to issue common shares from treasury.

A continuity of the number of commons shares under the ESP Plan which are outstanding at the end of the current period and as at the prior fiscal year ended December 31, 2023:

Compensation Expense:

On October 1, 2023 the Company entered into a service agreement with a marketing consultant to provide sales and market services to introduce potential customers to the SFD^®^ technology, attend trade shows, and update the Company’s market systems. The consultant agreed to be compensated in Common Shares only for approximately US$16,000 per month, based on the five-day volume average price at the end of each month until February 29, 2024. Issuance of any shares is subject to approval by the TSX. If the TSX does not approve the share issuance, the marketing consultant will be paid in cash. As of March 31, 2024, 634,439 common shares, less withholding taxes, are due to the marketing consultant (360,139 common shares at December 31, 2023).

13. Financial instruments

Non-derivative financial instruments:

The Company's non-derivative financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, deposits, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, long-term debt and convertible debentures. The carrying value of these financial instruments, excluding lease obligations and long-term debt, approximates their fair values due to their short terms to maturity.

Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from the potential that the Company may incur a loss if counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its obligation in accordance with agreed terms. The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable reflects management’s assessment of maximum exposure to credit risk. At March 31, 2024, cash and cash equivalents included balances in bank accounts placed with financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and Accounts Receivable. The Company manages Accounts Receivable credit risk by requiring advance payments before entering into certain contract milestones and when possible, accounts receivable insurance.

Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk in relation to its holding of significant US$ balances in cash and cash equivalents, deposits, accounts payables, accrued liabilities, and lease obligations, and entering into United States dollar revenue contracts. The Company does not currently enter into hedging contracts, but to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange the Company uses strategies to reduce the volatility of United States Dollar assets including converting excess United States dollars to Canadian dollars. As at March 31, 2024, the Company held net U.S. dollar liabilities totaling US$3,670,788. Accordingly, a hypothetical 10% change in the value of one United States dollar expressed in Canadian dollars as at March 31, 2024 would have had an approximately $496,878 effect on the unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss for the year.

NXT’s accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company has consistently used US GAAP for the eight most recently completed quarters.

This MD&A includes references to net working capital, which does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures being presented by other entities. Net working capital is the net result of the difference between current assets and current liabilities. It is composed of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible debentures, the current portion of long-term debt and the current portion of the Company’s lease obligations. Net working capital can be used by investors and management to assess liquidity at a particular point in time. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Net Working Capital” for further information.

Description of the Business

NXT is a Calgary-based technology company whose proprietary airborne SFD^®^ survey system (“SFD^®^”), applied in numerous basins around the world, uses the principles of quantum mechanics to infer stress anomalies of exploration interest. The method can be used both onshore and offshore to remotely identify areas conducive to fluid entrapment in order to recommend areas with commercial hydrocarbon and/or geothermal potential. The SFD^®^ survey system enables our clients to focus their exploration decisions concerning land commitments, data acquisition expenditures and prospect prioritization on areas with the greatest potential. SFD^®^ is environmentally friendly and unaffected by ground security issues or difficult terrain and is the registered trademark of NXT.

Discussion of Operations

SFD^®^ Survey in Türkiye

On September 5, 2023, NXT announced that it has executed a contract to provide an SFD^®^ survey to an independent oil and gas exploration company in Türkiye, which is strategically located at the junction of Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Middle East (the “Turkish SFD^®^ Survey”). NXT delivered the final SFD^®^ survey results to its Turkish customer and performed the integration of SFD^®^ data with the customers’ existing geological and geophysical data in March 2024. The Company’s Turkish customer and one of its partners had requested NXT to add additional line kilometers to the original Turkish SFD^®^ Survey. All flight operations related to the data acquisition survey phase were completed in January 2024. As part of NXT’s SFD^®^ services, recommendations with rankings are provided to the customer identifying their highest value prospects for exploration.

Strategic Investment

On May 24, 2023, the Company entered into a ten-year strategic alliance and associated financing with Synergy E&P Technologies Limited (“Synergy”) which grants Synergy an exclusive license to use, distribute, sub-license, market and sell NXT’s SFD^®^ solutions in Africa. In addition, on September 30, 2023, NXT extended the exclusive license to include Ataraxia Capital (“Ataraxia”), an affiliate of Synergy.

PE Energy Limited, an affiliate of Synergy and Ataraxia, has performed several commercial projects with NXT in Africa in the past.

Synergy and Ataraxia, with this new arrangement, will be advancing the SFD^®^ technology to address energy security in and transition in the African continent for both oil and gas and geothermal sources. Synergy, Ataraxia and NXT will work closely together to train local technical teams and regulatory authorities on the patented SFD^®^ technology.

Building upon a record of successful collaborations underpinned by the continued market demand in Africa, Ataraxia executed a subscription agreement pursuant to which Ataraxia agreed to subscribe for an aggregate of US$2.3 million convertible debentures (collectively, the “Ataraxia Debentures”), with a subscription price to be advanced in instalments, of which it completed US$1.4 million during Q3-23. In May 2024 Ataraxia indicated to the Company it will not fund the remaining balance of US$900,000. Please see the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Ataraxia Debentures” for further information on the Ataraxia Debentures.

Geothermal Rights

The Company acquired the SFD^®^ technology rights for geothermal resources (“Geothermal Right”) from the NXT’s former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer (the “Former CEO”) on April 18, 2021. One portion of the consideration deliverable by the Company in connection with the acquisition of the Geothermal Right is still outstanding. A US$200,000 payment will become due in the event that the Company's cash balance exceeds CDN$5,000,000 due to receipt of specifically defined funds from operations. The cost of this milestone will be recognized when it is deemed probable that the milestone will be achieved, by a special committee of the Board comprised entirely of independent directors. As of March 31, 2024 the remaining milestone is still deemed not probable of being achieved.

| MD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |

Progress continues with respect to the development of the SFD-GT geothermal sensor technology. The Company’s first project related to such technology tested, identified, and analyzed the desired elements of the SFD^®^ geothermal sensor response over known geothermal areas, with the ultimate goal of providing a green upstream geophysical service for advancing renewable power initiatives in Canada and abroad. The agreed project work was completed in November 2021 with total funding of $50,000 from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (“NRC IRAP”). During Q1-23, the Company submitted a proposal for up to approximately $200,000 to NRC IRAP for a funding and research plan for the next phase to support the research and development of the SFD^®^ technology for geothermal applications. As of the date of this MD&A, the Company funding for the next phase of research has not been finalized.

Patents

In Q1-22, NXT announced its patent application in Brazil has been allowed. As of the date of this MD&A, NXT has been granted SFD^®^ patents on its SFD^®^ technology in forty-seven jurisdictions, including Brazil (February 2022), India (July 2021), Russia (January 2017), Japan (July 2017), Canada (August 2017), Mexico (September 2017), the United States (two patents were granted in November 2017 and September 2018, respectively), China (April 2018), and Europe (January 2020). These patents protect our proprietary SFD^®^ technology and serve as independent third-party recognition of our technological invention.

| Total SFD^®^-related costs, net | | 730,520 | | 301,634 | | 428,886 | | 142 |

SFD^®^-related costs include aircraft charter costs (net of charter hire reimbursements), lease expenses, and aircraft operation and maintenance costs. In Q1-24, Aircraft operations were $180,236 higher as maintenance and repairs were performed before the aircraft after the Turkish SFD^®^ Survey. Survey projects were $248,456 higher due to direct costs to complete the Turkish SFD^®^ Survey in Q1-24.

On March 22, 2024 the Company extended its aircraft lease for three years, until March 28, 2027. The Company will own the aircraft at the end of the lease term. Terms of the lease extension include an interest rate of 12%, and monthly payments of US$40,189. The Company has an early purchase option to acquire the aircraft on any of the following date, March 28, 2025, September 28, 2025, March 28, 2026 or September 28, 2026. The purchase price would be the amortized value of the lease liability, plus a four-month interest penalty. The lease is being treated as a finance lease.

All values are in US Dollars.

G&A expenses increased $159,952, or 19%, in Q1-24 compared to Q1-23 for the following reasons:

·	salaries, benefits, and consulting charges increased $135,945 or 35%, due to commissions accrued for the Turkish SFD^®^ Survey and one additional headcount;
·	board and professional fees and public company costs decreased $12,293, or 6%, as audit fees are lower due to the change of auditor;
·	premises and administrative overhead costs increased $11,015, or 5%, due to spending for SFD^®^ related software upgrades and increased utility costs;
·	business development costs increased 51,331 or >100%. In Q1-24 the Company travelled to the middle east and Asia to pursue opportunities; and
·	SBCE’s were lower in Q1-24 versus Q1-23 by $26,046 or 36% as director fees were paid via SBCE during Q1-23, but none in Q1-24. This was partially offset by services performed by a marketing consultant during Q1-24 which is intended to be paid in shares only. Please see the next section “Discussion of Operations– Stock-based Compensation Expenses” for further information on the SBCE.

| Total SBCE | | 46,196 | | 72,242 | | (26,046 | ) | | (36 | ) |

SBCE varies in any given quarter or year as it is a function of several factors, including the number of units of each type of stock-based compensation plan issued in the period and the amortization term based on the number of years for full vesting of the units.

SBCE is also a function of periodic changes in the inputs used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model, such as volatility in NXT’s trailing common share price. For cash-settled stock-based compensation awards variability will occur based on changes to observable prices.

Stock options granted generally expire, if unexercised, five years from the date granted and entitlement to exercise them generally vests at a rate as determined by the Board. On January 6, 2023 the Company granted 2,050,000 incentive stock options at a price of $0.216 to employees, officers and directors. These incentive stock options will vest upon receipt of cash for SFD^®^ services performed: one-third upon collection of US$6.5 million, one-third upon the collection of the next US$7.0 million and the final one-third upon collection of an additional US$7.5 million.

The deferred share unit (“DSUs”) plan (the “DSU Plan”) is a long-term incentive plan that permits the grant of DSUs to qualified directors. DSUs granted under the DSU Plan are to be settled at the retirement, resignation, or death of the Board member holding the DSUs. No DSUs were granted in either Q1-24 or Q1-23. Currently 37,354 DSUs are outstanding.

Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) entitle the holder to receive, at the option of the Company, either the underlying number of shares of the Company’s common shares upon vesting of such RSUs or a cash payment equal to the value of the underlying shares. The RSUs vest at a rate of one-third at the end of each of the first three years following the date of grant. The Company has settled the RSU vesting with common shares and cash. On February 21, 2024 the Company granted 1,035,000 RSUs to employees and officers which will vest over a three-year period. At March 31, 2024 915,000 RSUs are outstanding.

The Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “ESP Plan”) allows employees and other individuals determined by the Board to be eligible to contribute a minimum of 1% and a maximum of 10% of their earnings to the plan for the purchase of common shares in the capital of the Company, of which the Company will make an equal contribution. Common shares contributed by the Company may be issued from treasury or acquired through the facilities of the TSX. During 2023 and to date in 2024 the Company has elected to issue common shares from treasury.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.	page	9

On October 1, 2023, the Company entered into a five-month service agreement with a marketing consultant to provide sales and market services to introduce potential customers to the SFD^®^ technology, attend trade shows, and update the Company’s market systems. The consultant agreed to be compensated in common shares only for approximately US$16,000 per month, based on the five-day volume average price at the end of each month. Issuance of any shares under such agreement is subject to prior approval from the TSX. If the TSX does not approve the share issuance, the marketing consultant will be paid in cash. As of March 31, 2024, 634,439 common shares (or equivalent of US$80,000), less withholding taxes, per the agreement, are due to the marketing consultant.

SBCE in Q1-24 was lower compared to Q1-23 by $26,046 or 36% as director fees were paid via SBCE during Q1-23, but none in Q1-24. This was partially offset by services performed by the marketing consultant during Q1-24 which is intended to be paid in shares only.

Property and equipment and related depreciation expense. Property and equipment depreciation was higher in Q1-24 compared to Q1-23 as the Company acquired new SFD Survey assets between the periods.

Intellectual property and related amortization expense. NXT acquired specific rights to utilize the proprietary SFD^®^ technology in global hydrocarbon exploration applications from the inventor of the SFD^®^ technology, the Former CEO, on August 31, 2015. The value attributed to the acquired IP assets was $25.3 million. The IP assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a fifteen-year period (future amortization expense of $1,685,000 per year).

The Company acquired the SFD^®^ technology for the Geothermal Rights from the Former CEO on April 18, 2021. The Geothermal Right is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 20 years. The annual amortization expense expected to be recognized is approximately $13,781 per year for a five-year aggregate total of $68,902.

IP is subject to ongoing assessment of potential indicators of impairment of the recorded net book value. No impairments were recognized in Q1-24 or YE-23.

Interest expense, net. This category of other expenses includes interest expense from long-term debt, the Ataraxia Debentures and the November Debentures netted by interest income earned on short-term investments.

Interest expense increased in Q1-24 versus Q1-23 due the Company issuing the two debentures in during 2023 and Q1-24.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.	page	10

| MD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |

Foreign exchange loss (gain). This category includes losses and gains caused by changes in the relative currency exchange values of US$ and CDN$. The Company held a net US$ liability at both March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 which included accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, accrued liabilities, convertible debentures (2024 only), US$ lease obligations, and the security deposit for the aircraft, all of which have an effect on the unrealized foreign exchange gain and loss. For Q1-24 the exchange loss was the result of (i) the 2.3% weaker CDN$ to US$ between March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and (ii) the Company having a significant net liability in US$ of US$3,670,788. For Q1-23 the exchange gain was the result of the stronger CDN$ to US$ exchange rate between December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023 and the Company having a net liability in US$.

The Company does not currently enter into hedging contracts, but does, however, use alternative strategies to reduce the volatility of US dollar liabilities including holding excess US dollars before converting to CDN dollars.

IP and other. This category of other expenses primarily includes costs related to IP filings and research & development activity related to the SFD^®^ technology.

In Q1-24 and Q1-23, the Company’s IP and other expenses were associated with periodic patent maintenance and renewal fees required during these time periods.

Loss on disposal of assets & lease modifications. In Q1-24, the Company extended its Aircraft lease for three years, until March 28, 2027. As a result of the extension, the Company recognized a loss of $31,686 on the lease modification.

Income Tax Expense

There was no income tax expense in Q1-24 or Q1-23.

Competition

NXT’s SFD^®^ airborne survey service is based upon a proprietary technology, which is capable of remotely identifying, from a survey aircraft, subsurface anomalies associated with potential hydrocarbon traps with a resolution that it believes is technically superior to other airborne survey systems. To the Company’s knowledge, there is no other company employing technology comparable to its SFD^®^ survey system for oil and natural gas and geothermal exploration.

Seismic is the standard technology used by the oil and gas industry to image subsurface structures. It is our view that the SFD^®^ survey system is highly complementary to seismic analysis. NXT’s system may reduce the need for seismic in wide‑area reconnaissance but will not replace the role of seismic in verifying structure, closure, and selecting drilling locations. The seismic industry is competitive with many international and regional service providers.

The SFD^®^ system can be used as a focusing tool for seismic. With an SFD^®^ survey, a large tract (that is, a tract over 5,000 square kilometers) of land can be evaluated quickly to identify locations with indications of reservoir potential. Seismic surveys, although effective in identifying these locations, are much more expensive, require significantly more time, and impose a much greater negative impact on local communities and the environment. An SFD^®^ survey deployed first can provide necessary information to target a seismic program over a limited area of locations selected by SFD^®^. This approach can result in a more effective seismic program and reduce the overall cost, time, community resistance, and environmental impact required to locate and qualify a prospect.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.	page	11

| MD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |

The energy industry uses other technologies for wide area oil and natural gas reconnaissance exploration, such as aeromagnetic and gravity surveys. These systems can provide regional geological information, such as basement depth, sedimentary thickness and major faulting, and structural development.

Risk and Uncertainties

Hydrocarbon and geothermal exploration operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may affect the consolidated financial statements and are reasonably likely to affect them in the future. These risks and uncertainties are discussed in detail in the NXT Annual Information Form (“AIF”) for the Year Ended December 31, 2023, “Section 5 Risk Factors”, dated March 27, 2024 and available as an electronic copy on NXT’s website at www.nxtenergy.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

We caution that the factors referred to in the AIF and those referred to as part of particular forward-looking statements may not be exhaustive and that new risk factors emerge from time to time in the rapidly changing business environment.

Summary of Quarterly Results

A summary of operating results for each of the trailing eight quarters (including a comparison of certain key categories to each respective prior quarter) follows:

( Figures are given in “$”)	Q1-24			Q4-23			Q3-23			Q2-23

| SFD^®^-related revenue | $ | 602,072 | | $ | 2,145,716 | | $ | - | | $ | - | |

( Figures are given in “$”)	Q1-23			Q4-22			Q3-22			Q2-22

| SFD^®^-related revenue | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | - | |

| Net loss | | (1,614,647 | ) | | (1,469,549 | ) | | (1,647,988 | ) | | (1,774,671 | ) | | Loss per share – basic | $ | (0.02 | ) | $ | (0.02 | ) | $ | (0.03 | ) | $ | (0.03 | ) |

| Loss per share – diluted | $ | (0.02 | ) | $ | (0.02 | ) | $ | (0.03 | ) | $ | (0.03 | ) |

In Q1-24, SFD^®^ related-revenues were from the Turkish SFD^®^ survey. Net loss reflected higher SFD^®^-related costs, net due to the Turkish SFD^®^ Survey an additional headcount, sales commissions and higher business development travel costs as well as interest expense due to the debentures issued during 2023 and Q1-24. In Q4-23 the Company earned SFD^®^-related revenue and incurred SFD^®^-related costs due to the Turkish SFD^®^ Survey, which reduced its net loss versus the previous six quarters. During Q3-23 the Company decreased G&A spending due to less professional fees as there was minimal incremental financing during the quarter. This was offset by costs incurred to plan for the upcoming Turkish SFD^®^ Survey and foreign exchange losses due to the weakening CDN$. In Q2-23 the Company incurred G&A costs due to increased business development activity and professional fees related to the Ataraxia Debentures. In Q1-23 the Company incurred lower SFD^®^-related costs as there was no unplanned maintenance on the aircraft, and lower G&A as the Company reduced its headcount by one. During Q4-22 costs were reduced primarily due to lower vacation accruals due to vacation timing, and SBCE. In Q3-22 the Company incurred lower SFD^®^-related costs as the aircraft had early completed its required maintenance. In Q2-22 the Company recorded unrealized foreign exchange gains as the CDN$ weakened versus the US$. In each quarter between Q2-22 and Q3-23, the Company incurred net losses due to incurred SFD^®^-related costs related to aircraft lease and aircraft maintenance costs, G&A expenses, and non-cash items such as SBCE, which can be a significant expense in any given quarter. More details are provided below:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Going Concern

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for Q1-24 have been prepared on a going concern basis. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that NXT will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

The events described in the following paragraphs highlight that there is substantial doubt about NXT’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the audited consolidated financial statements have been issued. The Company’s current cash position is not expected to be sufficient to meet the Company’s obligations and planned operations for a year beyond the date that the audited consolidated financial statements have been issued.

Since 2022, the Company has deferred payment of certain operating costs, including payroll and other general and administrative costs. During 2023 and to date in 2024 the Company completed private placements which resulted in raising an additional net proceeds of $5,079,612 and completed an SFD^®^ survey which generated operating funds. Further financing options that may or may not be available to the Company include issuance of new equity, debentures or bank credit facilities. The need for any of these options will be dependent on the timing of securing new SFD^®^ related revenues and obtaining financing on terms that are acceptable to both the Company and the financier.

| MD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern basis was not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate for the audited consolidated financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary in the carrying value of the assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used. These adjustments could be material.

NXT’s cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2024 totaled $0.53 million. Net working capital totaled $(2.64) million. See the information in the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Net Working Capital” for further information.

Risks related to having sufficient ongoing net working capital to execute survey project contracts are mitigated through NXT’s normal practice of obtaining advance payments and progress payments from customers throughout the course of the projects, which often span three to four months. In addition, where possible, risk of default on client billings has been mitigated through the use of export insurance programs offered by Export Development Canada.

The Company does not have provisions in its leases, contracts, or other arrangements that would trigger additional funding requirements or early payments except that if the Company were to default on its office lease, the current month rent, plus the next three months, become immediately due. If the Company were to default on the aircraft lease, the Company would be required to deliver the aircraft back to the Lessor.

The Ataraxia Debentures are for a term of two years, payable on demand. The Ataraxia Debentures are secured by a general security agreement, subordinate to the long-term debt. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Ataraxia Debentures” for more information.

Off- Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements as of the date of this MD&A other than office premise non-lease operating costs as per the office lease agreement with its landlord. If the Company were to default on its office lease, the current month rent including operation costs plus the next three months become immediately due. Operating cost amounts are disclosed in the section “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Contractual Obligations.”

NXT pays an estimated operating cost during the current year but has the obligation to pay the actual operating costs incurred as defined in the office lease in the first quarter of the following year if the estimate was low. Conversely, it will receive a refund if the estimate was too high. Currently, the Company believes that the operating cost estimate is reasonable and is consistent with discussions with the landlord under the Company’s office lease.

Critical Accounting Estimates

In preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, NXT is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the amount and timing of recording assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses since the determination of these items may be dependent on future events. The Company uses the most current information available and exercises careful judgment in making these estimates and assumptions. In the opinion of management, the Q1-24 unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions used are based upon management’s best estimate as at the date of the March 31, 2024 unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period when determined. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.	page	20

| MD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |

The Company reviews IP for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company considers both internal and external factors when assessing for potential indicators of impairment of its IP, including the consideration of historical and forecasted SFD^®^ related revenues, market capitalization, control premiums, and the SFD related revenue multiples compared to industry peers. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company first compares the total of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows or the estimated sale price to the carrying value of an asset. If the carrying value exceeds these amounts, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value of the IP.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of NXT for Q1-24 have been prepared by management in accordance with US GAAP. The Company has consistently used US GAAP for the eight most recently completed quarters. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those outlined in NXT’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, available on NXT’s website at www.nxtenergy.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments

The Company’s non-derivative financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, long-term debt and convertible debentures. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair values due to their short terms to maturity. NXT is not exposed to significant interest rate fluctuations arising from these financial instruments, but is exposed to significant credit risk with accounts receivable. For accounts receivable, where possible, NXT requests advance payments and utilizes risk mitigation products offered by entities such as Export Development Canada including, for example, insurance coverage of contract accounts receivable, guarantee support for contract performance bonds, and wrongful call insurance for such bonds.

NXT is exposed to foreign exchange risk as a result of holding foreign denominated financial instruments. Any unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arising on such holdings are reflected in earnings at the end of each period.

As at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company held no derivative financial instruments. For more information relating to risks, see the section titled “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Net Working Capital”.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures (“ DCPs ”) and

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”)

NXT’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) (together the “Responsible Officers”) are responsible for establishing and maintaining DCPs, or causing them to be designed under their supervision, for NXT to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the Company is made known to the Responsible Officers by others within the organization, particularly during the period in which the Company’s year-end consolidated financial statements and MD&A are being prepared.

DCPs and other procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed is recorded, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the relevant securities regulatory authorities in either Canada or the United States of America. DCPs include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports is communicated to management, including our Responsible Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.	page	22

| MD&A for the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |

The Company has established and maintains ICFR using the criteria that were set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). The control framework was designed or caused to be designed under the supervision of the Responsible Officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP.

In evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s DCPs, as defined under the rules adopted by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company’s Responsible Officers concluded that there are material weaknesses in the Company’s ICFR that have a direct impact on the Company’s DCPs:

due to the limited number of staff, it is not feasible to achieve adequate segregation of incompatible duties. NXT partially mitigates this deficiency by adding management and Audit Committee review procedures over the areas where inadequate segregation of duties are of the greatest concern; and

NXT does not have a sufficient level of staff with specialized expertise to adequately conduct separate preparation and a subsequent independent review of certain complex or highly judgmental accounting issues. NXT partially mitigates this deficiency by preparing financial statements with their best judgments and estimates of the complex accounting matters, and relies on reviews by management, external consultants, and the Audit Committee.

From time to time, to reduce these risks and to supplement a small corporate finance function, the Company engages various outside experts and advisors to assist with various accounting, controls, and tax issues in the normal course.

Given the small size of the Company’s finance team, management has established a practice of increased engagement of external consultants, legal counsel, the Company’s Disclosure Committee and Audit Committee in reviewing the public disclosure.

The Responsible Officers concluded that, as at March 31, 2024, its ICFR **** is not effective and as a result, its DCPs are not effective. NXT reached this conclusion based upon its assessment that there is a more than remote likelihood that its ICFR will not prevent or detect material misstatements if they should exist in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. The Responsible Officers continue to take certain actions to mitigate these material weaknesses including:

·	the implementation of controls with regards to the review procedures surrounding its disclosure; and
·	engagement of third-party experts used above.

In addition, the CFO engages subject matter consultants as the need arises.

There were no changes to the Company’s ICFR in Q1-24.

It should be noted that a control system, including the Company’s DCPs and ICFR, no matter how well conceived, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met, and it should not be expected that the DCPs and ICFR will prevent all errors or fraud.
