In addition, the Company may make or approve certain statements in future filings with Canadian securities regulatory authorities, in press releases, or in oral or written presentations by representatives of the Company that are not statements of historical fact and may also constitute forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements may relate to future financial conditions, results of operations, plans, objectives, performance or business developments. These statements speak only as of and at the date they are made and are based on information currently available and on the then current expectations. Holders of securities of the Company are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but instead are based on reasonable assumptions and estimates of management of the Company at the time they were provided or made and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, as applicable, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, risks and uncertainties related to: legal and regulatory risks inherent in the cannabis industry; financing risks related to additional financing and restricted access to banking; general regulatory and legal risks including risk of civil asset forfeiture; risks relating to anti-money laundering laws and regulations; risks relating to the lack of access to U.S. bankruptcy protections; the risk of heightened scrutiny by regulatory authorities; risk of legal, regulatory or political change; general regulatory and licensing risks; risks relating to limitations on ownership of licenses; risks relating to regulatory actions and approvals from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and risks of litigation; increased costs as a result of being a public company; environmental risks including environmental regulation and unknown environmental risks; general business risks including risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic; risks relating to future acquisitions or dispositions; the Company’s possible failure to complete acquisitions; risks related to service providers; risks relating to the enforceability of contracts; risks relating to the resale of the Company’s subordinate voting shares (“SVS”) on the CSE; the Company’s reliance on the expertise and judgment of senior management of the Company, and its ability to retain such senior management; risks inherent in an agricultural business; risks relating to unfavorable publicity or consumer perception; product liability risks; risks relating to product recalls; risks relating to the results of future clinical research; risks relating to the difficulty of

The purpose of forward-looking statements is to provide the reader with a description of management’s expectations, and such forward-looking statements may not be appropriate for any other purpose. In particular, but without limiting the foregoing, disclosure in this Annual Report as well as statements regarding the Company’s objectives, plans and goals, including future operating results and economic performance may make reference to or involve forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Certain of the forward-looking statements and other information contained herein concerning the cannabis industry, its medical, adult-use and hemp-based cannabidiol markets, and the general expectations of the Company concerning the industry and the Company’s business and operations are based on estimates prepared by the Company using data from publicly available governmental sources as well as from market research and industry analysis and on assumptions based on data and knowledge of this industry which the Company believes to be reasonable. However, although generally indicative of relative market positions, market shares and performance characteristics, such data is inherently imprecise. While the Company is not aware of any misstatement regarding any industry or government data presented herein, the cannabis industry involves risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on various factors.

A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from what is projected in the forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report. Such forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Annual Report. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. The Company’s forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

NOTE TO UNITED STATES READERS – DIFFERENCES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN REPORTING PRACTICES

The Company is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), to prepare this Annual Report in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States.

The annual information form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report and is incorporated by reference herein.

AUDITED ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, including the reports of the independent auditors thereon, are filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Annual Report, and are incorporated by reference herein.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The Company’s Annual MD&A is filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this Annual Report, and is incorporated by reference herein.

TAX MATTERS

Purchasing, holding, or disposing of the Company’s securities may have tax consequences under the laws of the United States and Canada that are not described in this Annual Report.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

At the end of the period covered by this Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation and the material weaknesses in controls outlined below, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate Internal Controls over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”) and for assessing the effectiveness of ICFR. ICFR is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management evaluated the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2022, and concluded that material weaknesses existed as of December 31, 2022, and therefore the Company’s ICFR is not effective as of December 31, 2022. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in ICFR such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of the material weaknesses identified, management performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures.  Identified material weaknesses include:

Control Environment: The control environment, which is the responsibility of senior management, helps set the tone of the organization, influences the control consciousness of its officers and employees, and is an important component affecting how the organization performs risk management, financial analysis, accounting, and financial reporting. The Company did not maintain an effective control environment primarily attributable to the following identified material weaknesses:
oIneffective control environment to ensure adherence by the Company’s employees to the Company’s Business Conduct and Ethics Code. This resulted in communication failures of relevant facts necessary for the accounting group to properly conclude on transactions which led to incorrect accounting treatment of certain wholesale revenue transactions.
oThe Company did not have sufficient personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge, experience, and training commensurate with the complexity of the transactions and the financial reporting requirements.
Controls pertaining to Wholesale Revenue: Controls pertaining to wholesale revenue were not sufficiently designed or implemented to reasonably assure the accurate recording of wholesale revenue in the correct reporting periods, and in accordance with relevant accounting standards.
Information Technology Controls: Certain IT controls for security and administration of key IT systems did not operate effectively throughout the year. Specifically, (i) periodic user access reviews

of roles and permissions were not performed sufficiently throughout the period for certain key IT systems, (ii) certain key IT systems were not logically restricted between business and IT administration access privileges, resulting in improper segregation of duties for certain business processes, and (iii) removal of access that is no longer needed was not performed in a timely manner. 
Inventory Controls: Controls were not effectively documented and maintained to verify that the existence of all inventories subject to physical inventory counts were correctly counted. The Company’s process for compiling and communicating inventory data to ensure accurate reporting in our financial statements was not effective, including inadequate verification for completeness and accuracy of key reports and spreadsheets used to review and monitor inventory balances.

Remediation of Identified Material Weaknesses

Management, with oversight from the Audit Committee, is continuing remediation measures related to material weaknesses identified. The Company has implemented a robust plan, which includes:

Conducting on-going training for operational personnel on physical inventory count processes and procedures and developing centralized monitoring of the completion of these counts.
Implementation of an ERP system that enhances the Company’s inventory management capabilities, mitigating risk for both the inventory process and the IT environment.
Centralizing the provisioning and monitoring of ITGCs within the IT function, including implementation of single sign on capabilities on all capable systems.
Making enhancements to the Service Desk system and user access review processes, inclusive of training security administrators on access provisioning, access removal protocols, and approval protocols.
Conducting on-going training and instruction to accounting, legal and sales staff to enhance their understanding of relevant U.S. accounting principles with regard to, among other things, review and approval of significant revenue transactions.
Beginning a process of independently reviewing wholesale transactions to make sure they are captured and accounted for correctly.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional improvements as necessary and as funds allow.

The previously disclosed material weaknesses led to the restatement of our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021, the three months ended March 31, 2022, the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. As described below, while management has developed and implemented certain remediation actions to address the material weaknesses, further actions are still ongoing or have not been implemented for a sufficient amount of time to test and conclude on the effectiveness of the remediation actions as of December 31, 2022. As a result, the material weaknesses continue to be present as of December 31, 2022. Management has reported to the Audit Committee the status of these remediation actions. These control deficiencies could have resulted in other misstatements in financial statement accounts and disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that might not have been prevented or detected.

PKF O’Connor Davies, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Company’s effectiveness of ICFR for the year ended December 31, 2022, and has issued an adverse opinion.

Changes in ICFR

Other than the material weaknesses identified above, and measures described below to remediate the material weaknesses previously identified, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Remediation Status of Previously Reported Material Weaknesses

The Company previously disclosed material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021.  The Company has implemented various initiatives to address the previously reported material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company completed the testing necessary to conclude as to whether the following material weaknesses were remediated. Some of our key remedial initiatives included:

Material Weakness

Control Enhancement or Mitigant

Remediation Status

Controls over Non-Routine Transactions and Appropriate Segregation of Duties

The Company has implemented organizational enhancements including (i) hiring additional personnel with requisite knowledge and experience to review complex accounting transactions and ensure appropriate segregation of duties, (ii) engaging third-party specialists to assist in evaluating complex accounting transactions when necessary, and (iii) providing training for personnel to enhance their knowledge of U.S.  GAAP and Internal Controls.

Remediated

Information Technology General Controls

The Company has made enhancements to the ITGC environment including (i) hiring additional personnel with requisite knowledge and experience to mitigate risk within the IT environment, (ii) implementation of policies and procedures necessary to mitigate risk in the IT environment, and (iii) began the process of centralizing the management of all IT systems.

The Company recognizes there are inherent limitations to its ability to implement certain controls as it relates to seed-to-sale systems utilized for inventory management and is in the process of implementing an Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system that will mitigate related IT and inventory management risks.

In Process

Complex Spreadsheet Controls – Biological Assets

The Company began accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP for the year ended December 31, 2022. Accordingly, the complex spreadsheets related to the valuation of biological assets are no longer applicable.

Remediated

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

The Company’s disclosure controls or ICFR may not prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of error or fraud, if any, will be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additional controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions in the Company’s business, including increased complexity resulting from the Company’s growth and international expansion, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected on a timely basis, notwithstanding the remediation of the material weaknesses.
