MANAGEMENT COMMENT

“The loss at January 31, 2021 is significant due to factors affecting the fair value changes of the biological assets and inventory. The fair values of the biological assets and inventory were revised downward. As the market matures and the business moves to profitability, our assessment of the biological assets and inventory needed to be refined to reflect real-time values,” said THC BioMedPresident andCEO, John Miller. “Going forward, we intend on concentrating on the edibles market and specifically our THC Beverage Shot and our THC Kiss Gummies which will improve our gross margin and subsequent bottom line.”

Q2 2021 Summary of Quarterly Results

For the quarter ended January 31, 2021, we produced185.5 kilograms of dried cannabis and sold 300.3 kilograms at an average net selling price of $3.00 per gram.
