2. Basis of preparation
A. Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements ("annual consolidated financial statements") of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2024 which are available on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.ca and with the SEC at www.sec.gov.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March 17, 2025.
B. Basis of measurement
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently by the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries for the periods presented.
C. Currencies and foreign exchange
The Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company and its Canadian subsidiaries. The functional currency of the Company’s United States (“U.S.”) subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar (“USD”), of the Company’s European subsidiaries is the Euro (“EUR”), and of the Company’s United Kingdom subsidiaries is the British Pound Sterling (“GBP”). Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the rate prevailing at the date of transaction.

D. Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by High Tide Inc. Control is achieved when the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statements of loss and other comprehensive income (loss) from the effective date of acquisition and up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the annual consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Company. Intra‐group balances and transactions, and any unrealized gains or losses or income and expenses arising from intra‐group transactions are eliminated in preparing the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

4. Significant accounting judgement, estimates and assumptions
The estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions in accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years. Significant judgements, estimates, and assumptions within these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent as those applied to and presented in note 4 of the annual consolidated financial statements for the period ended October 31, 2024.
5. Business combinations
In accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations, these transactions meet the definition of a business combination and, accordingly, the assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed have been recorded at their respective estimated fair values as of the acquisition date.
A.    Cantopia (Millcreek) acquisition (Prior year)
On June 25, 2024, the Company closed the acquisition of 100% of one retail cannabis store previously operated by Cantopia at 6400 Millcreek Drive, Mississauga, Ontario. Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement, the consideration was comprised of $600 in cash with 25% of the purchase price withheld in escrow for one year after the date of the agreement to cover potential post-closing adjustments.
In accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”), the substance of this transaction constituted a business combination. The purchase price was allocated based on the Company’s estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired on the acquisition date. Management finalized its purchase price allocation for the fair value of identifiable intangible assets, income taxes and the allocation of goodwill. The goodwill is primarily related to the opportunities to grow the business, expanded access to capital and greater financial flexibility. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. For the year ended October 31, 2024, Cantopia accounted for $450 in revenues and $70 in net loss. If the acquisition had been had been completed on November 1, 2023, the Company estimates it would have been recorded an increase of $158 in revenue and increase of $25 in net loss for the year ended October 31, 2024.

18. Share-based compensation
(a) Stock option plan
On April 19, 2022, the directors of the Company approved the 2022 equity incentive plan of the Company (the “Omnibus Plan”), which was effective upon the Company receiving disinterested shareholder approval at the annual general meeting and special meetings of shareholders of the Company on June 2, 2022.
The maximum number of common shares available and reserved for issuance, at anytime, under the Omnibus Plan, together with any other security-based compensation arrangements adopted by the Company, including the Predecessor Plans, has been updated to 20% of the issued and outstanding common shares as at June 2, 2022. The maximum share options that can be issued is 12,617,734 Common Shares.
It is the Company's intention for the stock options it grants, to generally vest one-fourth on each of the first, second, third and fourth, six-month anniversaries of the grant date. All options that are outstanding will expire upon maturity, or earlier, if the optionee ceases to be a director, officer, employee or consultant. The maximum exercise period of an option shall not exceed 10 years from the grant date.

During the three months ended January 31, 2025, the Company reported a net loss. In the computation of the diluted loss per share, common share equivalents are not considered, as the inclusion of the common shares equivalents are anti-dilutive for the year.
21. Financial Instruments and risk management
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The Company is exposed to credit, liquidity, interest and market risk due to holding certain financial instruments. This note presents information about changes to the Company’s exposure to each of these risks, its objectives, policies, and processes for measuring and managing risk, and its management of capital during the year. Further quantitative disclosure is included throughout these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.
(a) Fair value
The Company classifies fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
-Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
-Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 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 for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs)
The Company assessed that the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value:
-Marketable securities (excluding long term GIC's) are determined based on level 1 inputs, as the prices for the marketable securities are quoted in public exchanges.
-The Secured Debentures are evaluated by the Company based on level 2 inputs such as the effective interest rate and the market rates of comparable securities. The Secured Debentures are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost and at each reporting period accretion incurred in the period is recorded to transaction costs in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk arises when a party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the counter party by failing to fulfill its obligation. The maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value (net of allowances) of the financial assets. The objective of managing credit risk is to prevent losses on financial assets. The Company assesses the credit quality of counterparties, considering their financial position, past experience, and other factors. Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances. Credit risk associated with cash is minimized substantially by ensuring that these financial assets are held in highly rated financial institutions. The Company holds all cash and cash equivalents with large commercial banks or credit unions, which minimizes credit risk.
The following table sets forth details of the aging profile of accounts receivable and the allowance for expected credit loss:

Accounts receivable consist primarily of accounts receivable from invoicing for products and services rendered. The Company’s credit risk arises from the possibility that a customer which owes the Company money is unable or unwilling to meet its obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions in the contracts with the Company, which would result in a financial loss for the Company. This risk is mitigated through established credit management techniques, including monitoring customer’s creditworthiness, setting exposure limits and monitoring exposure against these customer credit limits.

For the three months ended ended January 31, 2025 $2 (January 31, 2024 $2) in trade receivables were written off against the loss allowance due to bad debts. Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. The remaining accounts receivable are evaluated by the Company based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors, and individual creditworthiness of the customer. Based on this evaluation, allowances are taken into account for the estimated losses of these receivables.
The Company performs a regular assessment of collectability of accounts receivables. In determining the expected credit loss amount, the Company considers the customer’s financial position, payment history and economic conditions.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient readily available reserves in order to meet its liquidity requirements at any point in time. The Company generally relies on funds generated from operations, equity and debt financing to provide sufficient liquidity to meet budgeted operating requirements and to supply capital to expand its operations. The Company continues to seek capital to meet current and future obligations as they come due. The Company’s ability to manage its liquidity risk going forward will require some or all of the following: the ability to continue generate positive cash flows from operations and to secure capital or credit facilities on reasonable terms.
Maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities are as follows:

Balance, January 31, 2025107,61037,08424,78627,96917,771
(d) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in the market interest rate related primarily to the Company’s current credit facility with variable interest rates.
At January 31, 2025, approximately 56% of the Company’s borrowings are at a fixed rate of interest (October 31, 2024: 64%).
At January 31, 2025, assuming all other variables remain constant, a fluctuation of +/- 1.0 percent in the interest rate would impact the annual interest payment by approximately +/- $120 (October 31, 2024 : $129).

(e) Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is defined as the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company maintains cash balances and enters into transactions denominated in foreign currencies, which exposes the Company to fluctuating balances and cash flows due to variations in foreign exchange rates. The Canadian dollar equivalent carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities as at January 31, 2025 was as follows:

Assuming all other variables remain constant, a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between USD and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $6 (October 31, 2024 - $19). Maintaining constant variables, a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between the EUR and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $7 (October 31, 2024 - $2), and a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between GBP and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $30 (October 31, 2024 - $28). To date, the Company has not entered into financial derivative contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
22. Segmented information
The accounting policies used for segment reporting are consistent with the accounting policies used for the preparation of the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements. The comparative information has been prepared in accordance with the current reporting segments noted above. There have been no changes to the underlying data used to prepare the comparative reporting segments for the prior year.

25. Capital management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital resources are to:

High Tide Inc.
Management's Discussion and Analysis
For the three months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024
(In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts or otherwise stated)
Corporate update:
High Tide’s wholly owned subsidiary, Canna Cabana, is the second-largest cannabis retail brand globally with 194 current operating locations. The Company's objective remains to add another 20-30 locations during calendar 2025, while generating positive free cash flow, as was the case in the previous year. The Company reiterates its long-term goal to reach 300 locations across Canada.

The Company’s Cabana Club loyalty program continues to expand at a rapid pace across Canada, currently exceeding 1.76 million members, which is up 33% over the past year. Given this trajectory, the Company is raising its long-term target to exceed 2.5 million members in Canada, up from the Company’s previous target of 2 million. ELITE, the paid membership tier, continues to break quarterly growth records and now exceeds 81,000 members with additional members being onboarded daily. ELITE members tend to shop more frequently and in larger quantities than base tier members.

Following the successful launch of its innovative discount club model in its core business of bricks-and-mortar cannabis stores in Canada, in late 2024, the Company expanded the Cabana Club across all its global e-commerce businesses, offering disruptive three-tier pricing. The Company is encouraged by the initial trajectory of members signing up to its loyalty plan—and maintains its expectation that this initiative will be revenue neutral approximately six months from launch and EBITDA neutral approximately 12 months from launch. The Company is pleased to report that 4,500 members in the U.S. and Europe have signed up to ELITE. With 3.9 million total Cabana Club members in U.S. and Europe, the community has grown to a global base of 5.66 million today.

On January 13, 2025, the Company announced its intention to enter into the German medical cannabis market by acquiring a 51% interest in Purecan GmbH for approximately €4.8 Million. During ongoing due diligence, the Company reassessed the optimal structure for this transaction and is now exploring alternative arrangements to allow High Tide to maintain its planned commercial exposure into the German market. Given that approximately half of all German medical cannabis imports come from Canada, the Company continues to be committed to the German medical cannabis market and is exploring both alternative structures with Purecan GmbH and other opportunities for entry into Germany.

As expressed by the Company previously, the quantum of free cash flow generated can vary significantly in any given quarter. In the first fiscal quarter, changes in non-cash working capital represented a use of cash of $4.0 million, which was the highest level in the past seven quarters and resulted in negative free cash flow in the quarter. The Company notes that over the past four quarters, it has generated $16.5 million in free cash flow, and it expects to remain free cash flow positive for the fiscal year.

The Company’s balance sheet remains healthy with total debt of $26.4 million as of today, representing just 0.8x Adjusted EBITDA generated during the past 12 months, and with no maturities for over two years. As a result, the Company believes it can continue to fund future store growth with cash generated from existing locations.

The key factors affecting the results of the three months ended January 31, 2025, were:

Free cash flow - Free cash flow decreased by $5,508 year-over-year due to a $3,346 reduction in Adjusted EBITDA and $1,471 in working capital investments.

Revenue – Revenue increased $14,393 year-over-year. Organic growth of same-store sales contributed $7,782 increase in revenue whereas new stores accounted for $8,590 accompanied with an increase to data analytics, advertising and other revenue for $3,700. This has been offset by a $5,679 reduction in revenue related to e-commerce.
Total Expenses – Total expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased 1% year-over-year, dropping to 25% during the year compared to 26% in the prior year. The decrease in total expenses as a percentage of revenue is driven by the Company's various initiatives to reduce expenditures and implement more efficient cost-saving solutions without impacting revenue and also decrease of depreciation and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA – The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue is primarily driven by 3% decrease in gross profit margin on account of change in the Company's international pricing strategy to expand Cabana Club across all its global E-commerce business and new stores taking longer to ramp up to maturity.

(i)Total expense excluding depreciation and amortization as a percentage of revenue - a non-IFRS financial measure is calculated by dividing total expenses excluding depreciation and amortization by revenue.

Total expenses excluding depreciation and amortization remained consistent at 21% of revenue during the three months ended January 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. General and administration and professional fees combined together for the three months ended January 31, 2025 remained consistent at 6% of revenue, compared to the same period in 2024. This reflects the Company's continued focus on maintaining an efficient cost structure while delivering revenue growth.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $1,001 for the three months ended January 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, primarily due to the full amortization of business licenses acquired as part of the META Growth Corp acquisition in prior years. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $789 in amortization on right-of-use assets for the stores.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
The Company defines EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as per the table below. It should be noted that these performance measures are not defined under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other entities. The Company believes that these measures are useful financial metrics as they assist in determining the ability to generate cash from operations. Investors should be cautioned that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings or cash flows as determined under IFRS. Management defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as the net (loss) income for the period, before income tax (recovery) expense, accretion and interest expense, depreciation and amortization, and adjusted for foreign exchange (gain) losses, transaction and acquisition costs, (gain) loss on revaluation of put option liability, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debenture, impairment loss, share-based compensation, (gain) loss on revaluation of marketable securities and (gain) loss on extinguishment of financial liability.

Free cash flow
The Company defines free cash flows as net cash provided by operating activities, minus sustaining capex, minus lease liability payments. Sustaining Capex is defined as leasehold improvements and maintenance spend required in the existing business. The most directly comparable financial measure is net cash provided by operating activities, as disclosed in the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows. It should not be viewed as a measure of liquidity or a substitute for comparable metrics prepared in accordance with IFRS.
For the three months ended January 31, 2025, interest paid on right-of-use lease liabilities ($936) has been classified as a component of cash flow from operating activities within the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in line with the entity’s accounting policy. Prior periods include interest paid on right-of-use lease liabilities ($751) in cash used in financing activities. Prior periods have not been adjusted as the amounts are not material.

The Company continues to operate primarily in Canada with a focus on increasing its footprint across the Canadian provinces that it operates in. During the year, the Company expanded its footprint in Canada by opening 28 stores. As a result of the continued expansion and growth of same-store sales, revenues for the Canadian operations increased by 17% for the three months ended January 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2024.
During the three months ended January 31, 2025, the Company has seen a decrease in revenue from USA operations by 45% which is being driven primarily the change in company's international pricing strategy to expand Canna Cabana across all its global E-commerce business. Management launched a global e-commerce discount loyalty pricing model in December 2024 in order to capture more market share.
Within the international space, the Company has seen the entrance of many new competitors, in addition to an overall softening in the CBD sector which has impacted revenue growth leading to the decline in revenue from international sales by 48% for the three months ended January 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2024. Management launched a global e-commerce discount loyalty pricing model in December 2024 in order to capture more market share.
Canadian operations closely aligns with the bricks and mortar segment while USA and international operations closely aligns with the e-commerce segments. Differences between the geographic regions and the segments is related to corporate overhead allocation which is incurred in Canada and allocated to each segment proportionally based on a percentage of revenues generated by each segment.

Key highlights include:
Period-over-period revenue growth of 11% driven by increase in brick & mortar store count and continued organic same-store revenue growth. This was partially offset by revenue decline in the significantly smaller e-commerce segment.
Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow differences are primarily driven by gross profit margin decrease of 3% on account of change in company's international pricing strategy to expand Canna Cabana across all its global E-commerce business and new stores taking longer to ramp up to maturity.

Financial position, liquidity and capital resources:
Assets
As of January 31, 2025, the Company had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $33,341 (October 31, 2024: $47,267).
Working capital including cash and cash equivalents as of January 31, 2025, was a surplus of $27,904 (October 31, 2024: surplus $24,309). Working capital is a non-IFRS measure and is calculated as the difference between total current assets and total current liabilities. The change is primarily due to $4,500 net cash proceeds received from the issuance of secured debentures.
Total assets of the Company were $235,663 on January 31, 2025, compared to $246,208 on October 31, 2024.
Liabilities
Total liabilities decreased to $90,563 as at January 31, 2025, as compared to $100,696 as of October 31, 2024, primarily due to $13,000 repayment of note payable on maturity on December 31, 2024. This was partially offset by net cash proceeds of $4,500 from secured debentures issued in the quarter.
During three months ended January 31, 2025 the Company issued an additional $5,000 of bond debentures at a 10% discount, for net cash proceeds of $4,464 ($4,500 cash proceeds net of $36 in issuance costs), with a 12% coupon rate. The bonds were issued and cash received by the Company on November 13, 2024 with a maturity of July 31, 2029.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended January 31, 2025 was $2,741 (January 31, 2024: $2,076) primarily due to the opening of 28 new stores since Q1 2024.

Disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting:
The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have designed or caused to be designed under their supervision, disclosure controls and procedures which provide reasonable assurance that material information regarding the Company is accumulated and communicated to Management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a timely manner. Under the supervision and with the participation of Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Canada by NI 52-109 and in the United States by the rules adopted by the SEC). In addition, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company are responsible for designing internal controls over financial reporting or causing them to be designed under their supervision in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to the material weakness identified in our internal control over financial reporting, as further described below.
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2025, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013 Framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, Management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) was not effective as of January 31, 2025, due to a material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following internal control deficiency that constitutes a material weakness in the Company’s ICFR as of January 31, 2025.
Consistent with previous periods the Company did not effectively design, implement, and operate effective process-level control activities related to various processes or engage an adequate number of accounting personnel to allow for a detailed review of significant and non-routine accounting transactions that would identify errors in a timely manner, including business combinations, impairment testing and financing arrangements. As of January 31, 2025, a material weakness continues to exist in the operating effectiveness of controls over significant and non-routine accounting transactions as a result of insufficient capacity in its financial reporting function to identify and detect material misstatements. Management continues to hire qualified resources to increase capacity. Further remediation efforts are required for the Company to fully remediate this material weakness.

Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Although Management believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable in light of, among other things, its perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, as well as other factors that Management believes to be relevant and reasonable in the circumstances at the date that such statements are made, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, as forward-looking statements may prove to be incorrect. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from a conclusion, forecast or projection contained in the forward-looking statements. Importantly, forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A and in documents incorporated by reference are based upon certain assumptions that Management believes to be reasonable based on the information currently available to Management.
By their very nature forward-looking statements 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 the forward-looking statements. Although Management believes that the expectations reflected in, and assumptions underlying, such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for Management to predict all of those factors or to assess in advance the impact of each such factor on the Business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
Readers are cautioned that the foregoing is not exhaustive. The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A and the documents incorporated by reference herein are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking statements contained in this document speak only as of that date of this document and the Company does not assume any obligation to publicly update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances, except as may be required pursuant to Applicable Securities Laws.
These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this MD&A or as of the date specified in the documents incorporated by reference into this MD&A. The actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this MD&A: counterparty credit risk; access to capital; limitations on insurance; changes in environmental or legislation applicable to our operations, and our ability to comply with current and future environmental and other laws; changes in income tax laws or changes in tax laws and incentive programs relating to the cannabis industry; and the other factors discussed under “Financial Instruments” in this MD&A.
Additional risk factors that can cause results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements in this MD&A are discussed in greater detail in the “Non-Exhaustive List of Risk Factors” section in Schedule A to our current annual information form, and elsewhere in this MD&A, as such factors may be further updated from time to time in our periodic filings, available at www.sedarplus.com and www.sec.gov, which risk factors are incorporated herein by reference.
Cautionary note regarding FOFI:

This MD&A, and documents incorporated by reference herein, may contain FOFI within the meaning of Applicable Securities Laws and analogous U.S. securities Laws, about prospective results of operations, financial position or cash flows, based on assumptions about future economic conditions and courses of action, which FOFI is not presented in the format of a historical balance sheet, income statement or cash flow statement. The FOFI has been prepared by Management to provide an outlook of the Company’s

activities and results and has been prepared based on a number of assumptions including the assumptions discussed under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information” and assumptions with respect to the costs and expenditures to be incurred by the Company, capital expenditures and operating costs, taxation rates for the Company and general and administrative expenses. Management does not have, or may not have had at the relevant date, firm commitments for all of the costs, expenditures, prices or other financial assumptions which may have been used to prepare the FOFI or assurance that such operating results will be achieved and, accordingly, the complete financial effects of all of those costs, expenditures, prices and operating results are not, or may not have been at the relevant date of the FOFI, objectively determinable.
Importantly, the FOFI contained in this MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein are, or may be, based upon certain additional assumptions that Management believes to be reasonable based on the information currently available to Management, including, but not limited to, assumptions about: (i) the future pricing for the Company’s products, (ii) the future market demand and trends within the jurisdictions in which the Company may from time to time conduct the Business, (iii) the Company’s ongoing inventory levels, and operating cost estimates, and (iv) the Company’s net proceeds from the ATM Program and Credit Facility. The FOFI or financial outlook contained in MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein do not purport to present the Company’s financial condition in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing the FOFI will prove accurate. The actual results of operations of the Company and the resulting financial results will likely vary from the amounts set forth in the analysis presented in any such document, and such variation may be material (including due to the occurrence of unforeseen events occurring subsequent to the preparation of the FOFI). The Company and Management believe that the FOFI has been prepared on a reasonable basis, reflecting Management’s best estimates and judgments as at the applicable date. However, because this information is highly subjective and subject to numerous risks including the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Assessment”, FOFI or financial outlook within this MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein, should not be relied on as necessarily indicative of future results.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the FOFI, or financial outlook contained in this MD&A, and in documents incorporated by reference herein. Except as required by Applicable Securities Laws, the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update such FOFI.
Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Throughout this MD&A, references are made to non-IFRS financial measures, including free cash flow, gross profit margin, sustaining capex, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. These measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Non-IFRS measures provide investors with a supplemental measure of the Company’s operating performance and therefore highlight trends in Company’s core Business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. Management uses non-IFRS measures in measuring the financial performance of the Company.
Risk Assessment
Management defines risk as the evaluation of probability that an event might happen in the future that could negatively affect the financial condition, results of operations and/or reputation of the Company. Risks facing our business, and that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectation, may include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties that are discussed in greater detail in Schedule A to our current Annual Information Form (AIF) for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, and elsewhere in this MD&A, and may be further updated from time to time in our periodic filings, available at www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov which risk factors are incorporated herein by reference.
The Company's brick and mortar business which accounts for 95.3% of revenue is domestically sourced thus having no US tariff impact. The remaining 4.7% of e-commerce business includes mostly domestic products with less than 1% of our total products being sourced through a broker who imports products both domestically and internationally. Given this, the Company expects the impact of US tariffs on its e-commerce business to be immaterial.
