Operating Highlights for the Quarter

Just like most businesses operating in China, the Company's operations were dramatically impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020. With the country's strict public health confinement rules coming on the heels of the annual business shutdown for the Chinese New Year holiday, the Company's subsidiaries were only able to operate for the equivalent of about one full month during the quarter. But despite the shortened period, the Company was able to nearly match its revenue for all of Q4 2019 and make considerable strides towards the planned expansion of its services in 2020. The embrace by the city of Jiangyin of the Company's supply- chain related financing services helped the Company's ASSC subsidiary continue to lead the way in terms of revenue by subsidiary for the fourth consecutive quarter. The city elected to use the Company's Cubeler Lending Hub platform to help distribute low-interest loans to the city's COVID- 19 affected SMEs. The Company's relationship with the Jiangyin municipal government during the quarter led to tri-lateral talks between the Company, city officials and a number of high-profile local lenders on the possible creation of a city-wide financial credit centre. The credit centre, which would be backed by the government, would allow the city's business owners to register their businesses on the centre's website to qualify for loans and credit from participating lenders, with the centre's entire system of data collection and analysis powered by the Company's technology platforms.

The popularity of the Company's supply-chain services, which helps to extend credit to businesses specifically for the purpose of acquiring products and materials, confirmed to the Company that investing the necessary capital to adapt its Gold River product procurement platform to help facilitate the product purchase transactions for which credit is often required, would pay dividends in both the long and short-term. To that end, the Company spent some time during the quarter on the adaptation of the Gold River platform to facilitate procurement transactions of not only supply- chain related materials but also transactions related to other verticals such as the purchase of vehicles for transportation related businesses, an industry that began to seen explosive growth in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The desire to expand the Company's offering to service that vertical led to a partnership during the quarter between the Company and Midai Group, a well- established Shanghai-based financial group whose offering includes providing financing and leasing services to the automotive industry.

When it comes to the expansion of the Company's services, the Jinxiaoer platform provided a preview during the quarter of the reason why the Company expects it to be the single most important element to allow the Company's services to be offered in at least 20 cities by the end of 2020. Two prominent and well-established Shanghai based loan brokerage companies agreed to convert their operations into Jinxiaoer Service Centres during the quarter, giving the Company a physical presence in China's largest commercial credit market of over 26 million residents. Shanghai is one of 31 cities in which Jinxiaoer has relationships with loan brokerage companies and the Company plans to leverage those relationships to gain entry into other markets in the future. In addition to accessing the Shanghai market, a constant increase in the number of new reps who downloaded the Jinxiaoer mobile app during the quarter led to a proportionate increase in the number of loan requests submitted through the platform in Q1, further reinforcing the Company's belief that Jinxiaoer will be instrumental to its expansion plans.

Business plan and outlook for 2020

The Company's business plan and outlook for 2020 is all about expansion. That expansion is expected to come in the form of: 1) the vertical markets the Company serves, 2) the replication of the financial credit centre concept being developed in collaboration with the city of Jiangyin, 3) the geographic expansion of the Company's core services through the establishment of Jinxiaoer Service Centres in cities across the country, and 4) the continuous expansion of the number of banks, lenders, small and micro businesses, loan brokerage companies, loan sales reps, and strategic partners who join the Company's commercial lending ecosystem.

One of the most popular ways of extended credit to businesses in China is to finance the businesses' purchases of products and materials. The success the Company has had in playing a role to facilitate the financing of purchase orders of supply-chain participating businesses has led the Company to explore playing a similar role in other verticals, including the automotive industry.

Peak Positioning Technologies Inc. - MD&A, March 31, 2020

Page 3 of 16


Leveraging a revamped version of its Gold River product procurement platform working in concert with the Lending Hub, the Company will look to diversify its offering in 2020 by working with automobile dealers and financial institutions to bring the same level of efficiency to that vertical that it was able to bring to the supply-chain vertical in 2019. The same can also eventually be done for virtually any vertical where the purchase of high-ticket-item products or materials may require financing.

Although the financial credit centre concept being discussed between the Company and the city of Jiangyin, whereby a city's small and micro enterprises could register to qualify for loans and credit from a variety of banks and lenders and backed by a government fund, had not yet seen the light of day as of the date of this MD&A, the Company is fairly confident that the concept will catch on and lead to opportunities to work with other municipalities to create similar centres. In fact, while the details of the Jiangyin credit centre were still being hammered out, the Company was approached by representatives of a neighboring city to inquire about the concept.

While the replication of the financial credit centre concept in a perhaps a handful of cities and catering to new verticals are expected to make important contributions to the expansion of the Company's services, the Company expects that it is the establishment of multiple Jinxiaoer Service Centres in various cities throughout China and the continued proliferation of the use of the Jinxiaoer mobile app by loan sales reps that will account for the lion's share of the Company's expansion activity in 2020. Of course, as the Company expands its services to new markets and new verticals, so too will its commercial lending ecosystem of lenders, businesses and strategic partners.

Finally, 2020 is also expected to be the year in which the Company makes a concerted effort to expand its shareholder base by dramatically increase its number of US-based shareholders. As of the date of this MD&A, the Company had already began discussions with strategic investors, taken concrete steps to have the Company's securities listed on a US stock exchange that would allow for the securities to be much more easily traded by US investors and to promote the Company to potential US investors.

The Company generated $3,949,395 in revenue during the three-months period ended March 31, 2020 compared to $949,511 for the same period in 2018.

Expenses for the Three-month ended March 31, 2020

Outsourcing service costs of $2,104,150 in the first quarter of 2020 (compared to none in the first quarter of 2019) relate to the outsourcing of supply-chain-related services that ASSC is not yet in a position to provide on its own. They include logistics services (transportation and warehousing) related to material purchased by ASSC clients on credit, which credit was extended as a result of credit analysis services provided by ASSC through the Lending Hub platform.

Salaries and fringe benefits amounted to $323,809 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 ($402,026 for the same period in 2019). Except for the Company's CEO, CFO and the Vice-President, international operations, all salaries are paid out to employees working for the Company's subsidiaries in China. The decrease in salary expense for the period is attributed to the temporary reduction of the workforce in China of the Company's ASFC and ASCS subsidiaries following the COVID-19 outbreak in the first quarter of 2020. The share-based remuneration is included within this caption, which amounted to $33,808 in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $40,915 in the same period of 2019.

Board remuneration refers to share-based remuneration received by members of the Company's board of directors and amounted to $9,569 in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $16,794 for the same period in 2019.

Service fees related to consulting and business development services provided to the Company's ASFC and ASCS subsidiaries by third-party companies amounted to $131,633 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, compared to $27,434 for the corresponding period of 2019. The increase is attributable to the fact that there was no such expense in the first quarter of 2029 for ASCS, who was in transition mode at that time.

Royalty expenses of $30,873 for the first quarter of 2020 relate to royalty on software payable to Canadian software company Cubeler Inc., a related company. The royalty expense is calculated on revenue primarily generated by ASDS. There was no such expense in the corresponding period of 2019.

Consulting fees totaling $325,716 incurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 ($114,701 for the same period in 2019), mainly relate to corporate financing consulting. The majority of consulting expenses was paid through the issuance of Company shares. Share-based remuneration received by consultants amounted to $18,504 in the first quarter of 2020 compared to $Nil for the same period of fiscal 2019.

Management fees of $21,544 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, relate to services rendered to the Company in Canada and to its subsidiaries in China (compared to $35,906 for the same period in 2019). The share-based portion of the management fees amounted to $7,319 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $15,386 for the same period of 2019.

Peak Positioning Technologies Inc. - MD&A, March 31, 2020

Page 7 of 16


Administrative and indirect costs of $236,111 in the first three-month period of 2020 (compared to $59,100 for the same period of 2019) relate to administrative support expenses and other indirect costs for the Company's ASFC subsidiary in China. ASFC incurred nonrecurring support expense in the first period of 2020.

Depreciation of right-of use assets of $106,753 in the first period of fiscal 2020 (compared to $52,791 for the same period of fiscal 2019) follows the adoption of IFRS 16 on January 1, 2019, and relates to the depreciation of right-of-use assets associated with new office lease agreements of the Company's operating subsidiaries in China.

Finance costs include mainly interest charges and accretion of debentures. Those costs amounted to $206,571 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, compared to $207,741 for the same period in 2019. Also included in that caption is interest paid to third parties for providing security deposits as guarantors for loans serviced by ASCS and for advances made to ASSC representing $47,353 in the first period of fiscal 2020 compared to $15,926 in the corresponding period of fiscal 2019.

Expected credit loss of $361,525 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 ($4,467 for the same period in fiscal 2019) relates to the allowance for a credit loss provision on ASFC's loan balance for the period as described in Note 6 of the Company's Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended March 31, 2020. The increase is attributed to the potential repayment delays by borrowers that the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to create during the quarter. Management is of the opinion that repayment terms will return to the pre-pandemic levels before year-end 2020. It should be noted that despite the increased expected credit loss amount, ASFC had not written off any loans as of March 31, 2020.

Travel and entertainment expenses amounted to $46,832 in the first period of fiscal 2020 compared to $105,223 for the same period in 2019. These expenses are mainly attributed to travel expenses incurred by the Company's Chinese management related to business development initiatives and operations in China. It is to be noted that the global COVID-19 situation prevented the Company's Canadian management team to travel to China during the quarter as planned.

Amortization of intangible assets amounted to $81,805 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, compared to $187,147 for the same period in 2019. This decrease is due to the modification in the amortization period of the loan service agreements that accompanied the acquisition by ASCS of Wenyi Financial Services Co. Ltd.'s ("Wenyi") business operations on January 1, 2019, and the reduction of the amortization of the Gold River platform following the impairment of the platform in 2018 and 2019.

The Company accounted for a one-time loss on expiration of deferred financing cost of $353,377 in the first period of fiscal 2020 ($Nil in the corresponding period of 2019) following the decision by the Company to not trigger the financing mechanism associated with a share subscription facility agreement signed on June 14, 2017, that was set to expire on June 14, 2020. The amount of deferred financing cost of 353,377 represents the residual value of the warrants issued at the signing of the agreement less the amortization on previously issued shares during the agreement.

The Company reported a currency translation adjustment gain of $1,267,000 for the three-month ended March 31, 2020 (compared to a gain of $74,207 for the same period in 2019) reflecting the appreciation of the Chinese renminbi against the Canadian dollar during the period. This adjustment represents a theoretical gain that would only be realized in the event of a material transaction involving the underlying assets to which the gain is attributed, in this case, if the Company's subsidiaries were sold or otherwise disposed of.

Net Results.

The Company incurred a net loss of $805,695 in the first period of fiscal 2020 (compared to a net loss of $568,779 in the corresponding period of 2019).

Liquidity

The level of revenue currently being generated by the Company is not presently sufficient to meet its working capital requirements and investing activities. Until that happens, the Company will continue to use financing means to help meet its financial obligations. As of June 29, 2020, the cash available to operate the Company, including cash at ASFC for loan purposes, amounted to approximately $2,400,000. The Company's cash flow position is expected to improve significantly as its operating subsidiaries grow their revenue and generate new revenue streams and eventual profits for the Company. This is expected to eventually allow the Company to meet its working capital needs. However, until that happens, the Company will continue to assess its capital needs and undertake whatever initiative it deems necessary to ensure that it continues to be in a position to meet its financial obligations. In the opinion of management, the Company's current cash position, its access to additional capital and the possibility of negotiating the terms of its debt commitments, will be sufficient to meet its current obligations and allow it to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months.

Page 14 of 16

During the three month period of fiscal 2020, the Company incurred interest expense on debentures from officers of $200, compared to $200 for the same period in fiscal 2019.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the Company incurred $30,873 of royalty expense for the usage of the Cubeler software, compared to nil for the same period of 2019. Also, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, advances to the same related company, Cubeler Inc., increase from $17,758 to $30,744. The advance is payable back to the Company at its request. The advance is in the form of a promissory note bearing interest since July 1, 2019, at an annual rate of 8.5%. As security, in the event that the principal and interest is not fully paid on December 16, 2019, by the debtor to the Company, the Company had the option to have the debtor execute and deliver a hypothec on the universality of the present and future movable assets of the debtor to the Company. During the first 3 months period of fiscal 2020, interest was billed to the debtor for an amount of $859. As of June 29, 2020, the Company elected not to execute the hypothec considering the low value remaining of the advance.

Financial Instruments

The Company has classified its financial instruments as described in the note 4.10 of the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ending December 31, 2019. The Company is exposed to various risks as described in the note 19.3 of the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2019.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Risk factors that may adversely affect or prevent the Corporation from carrying out all or portions of its business strategy are discussed in the Corporation's Filing Statement dated January 6, 2011, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Other risks include:

Liquidity Risk

The Company does not have a long history of operations, is in the early stage of development and has just begun to generate operational revenue through its subsidiaries. As such, it is subject to many risks common to such enterprises, including under-capitalization, cash shortages, limitations with respect to personal, financial and other resources and the lack of revenue. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving a return on shareholders' investment and the likelihood of success must be considered in light of its early stage of operations.

Peak Positioning Technologies Inc. - MD&A, March 31, 2020

Page 15 of 16


Additional Financing

The Company may require additional financing in order to repay its creditors or other debts, make further acquisitions, investments or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. The ability of the Company to arrange such financing in the future will depend upon prevailing capital market conditions, and the business success of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to arrange additional financing on satisfactory terms. If additional financing is raised by the issuance of shares from the treasury, control of the Company may change and shareholders may suffer additional dilution. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of opportunities, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures and remain in business.

Patents

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company had no patents granted or pending. It should be noted, however, that being granted patent protection on its technology is not a prerequisite to the

commercialization of the Company's product offerings, and should have no material impact on the

Company's short-term performance.

Foreign Jurisdiction Risks

The Company has made significant investments in the pursuit of business opportunities in China, which exposes it to different considerations and other risks not typically associated with companies in Canada.
