1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
C21 Investments Inc. (the "Company" or "C21") was incorporated January 15, 1987, under the Company Act of British Columbia. The Company is a publicly traded company with its registered office is 1900-885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3H4.
Pursuant to a change of business announced on January 29, 2018 to the Cannabis industry, the Company commenced acquiring and operating revenue-producing cannabis operations in the USA and internationally.
On June 15, 2018, the Company's common shares were delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") at the Company's request and on June 18, 2018 the Company commenced trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE"), completed its change of business to the cannabis industry and commenced trading under the symbol CXXI. The Company registered its Common Shares in the United States and on May 6, 2019, its shares were cleared by FINRA for trading on the OTC Markets platform under the U.S. trading symbol CXXIF. On August 23, 2019 the Company announced it had been upgraded to the OTCQB® Venture Market
As at April 30, 2020, the Company operates in two segments, recreational cannabis in Oregon, USA and recreational and medical cannabis in Nevada, USA (Note 23).
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue its operations and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
The Company reports a net loss for the three months ended April 30, 2020 of $1,789,263, and accumulated deficit of $72,299,647, and a working capital deficit of $26,888,165 as at April 30, 2020. In July 2019, the Company accelerated a restructuring and integration of operations that resulted in significant cash savings. While these efforts have resulted in positive cash flow from operations, they will not be sufficient to fund payments on the short-term debt obligations owing to the Company's CEO (Notes 17, 28 and 29). The Company's working capital deficit position is due primarily to these short-term debt service payments which will require additional funding to satisfy by January 1, 2021 under the Company's current payment schedule. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on either raising additional financing or further restructuring of its current payment schedule with the Company's CEO, Sonny Newman, who is also the Company's majority secured debt holder and largest shareholder. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt upon the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Historically, management has been successful in obtaining adequate funding for operating and capital requirements. The Company takes a disciplined approach to financing and intends to protect shareholder value by raising capital strategically. The Company is assessing various opportunities for additional financing through either debt or equity to be used to satisfy current obligations, for corporate working capital and possible future acquisitions. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing on acceptable terms or at all to cover its current obligations.
In the United States, 34 states, the District of Columbia, and four U.S. territories allow the use of medical cannabis. Alaska, California, Colorado, Illinois Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Vermont, and the District of Columbia legalized the sale and adult-use of recreational cannabis. At the federal level, however, cannabis currently remains a Schedule I controlled substance under the Federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970 ("Federal CSA"). Under U.S. federal law, a Schedule I drug or substance has a high potential for abuse, no accepted medical use in the United States, and a lack of accepted safety for the use of the drug under medical supervision. As such, even in those states in which marijuana is legalized under state law, the manufacture, importation, possession, use or distribution of cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law. This has created a dichotomy between state and federal law, whereby many states have elected to regulate and remove state-level penalties regarding a substance which is still illegal at the federal level.
There remains uncertainty about the US federal government's position on cannabis with respect to cannabis-legal states. A change in its enforcement policies could impact the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN (continued)
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments may adversely affect workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company's business or results of operations at this time.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance on August 12, 2020 by the directors of the Company.
Basis of consolidation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 ("interim financial statements"), incorporate the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as defined in IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements ("IFRS 10"). All consolidated entities were under common control during the entirety of the periods for which their respective results of operations were included in the consolidated statements (i.e., from the date of their acquisition). All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
The following are the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries that are included in these interim financial statements as at and for the period ended April 30, 2020:

Basis of preparation
These interim financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical costs, except for certain financial instruments and biological assets classified as fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted. Amounts in comparative years may have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)
Statement of compliance
These interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting and in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the Company's most recent audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2020 ("annual financial statements"). These interim financial statements do not contain all of the information required for full annual financial statements and is intended to provide users with an update in relation to events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Company since the end of the last annual reporting period. It is therefore recommended that this financial report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").
Functional and presentation currency
We have chosen to present these interim financial statements in U.S. dollars. The functional currency of the Company's subsidiaries is U.S. dollars. The parent company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. All amounts presented are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
Foreign currency translation
Foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rate at the reporting date. All differences are recorded in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined.
Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates and any revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. The resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).
Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in Note 2 to the annual financial statements.
Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management's experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments.

The Company's biological assets consist of cannabis plants. The continuity for biological assets for the three months ended April 30, 2020 and year ended January 31, 2020, was as follows:
Balance, January 31, 2019 | $ | 1,870,540 | |

Balance April 30, 2020 | $ | 1,394,337 | |
Biological assets are valued in accordance with IAS 41 - Agriculture ("IAS 41") and are presented at their fair values less costs to sell up to the point of harvest. The Company's biological assets are primarily cannabis plants, and because there is no actively traded commodity market for plants or dried product, the valuation of these biological assets is obtained using valuation techniques where the inputs are based upon unobservable market data (Level 3).
The valuation of biological assets is based on a market approach where fair value at the point of harvest is estimated based on selling prices less the costs to sell at harvest. For in process biological assets, the fair value at point of harvest is adjusted based on the stage of growth. As at April 30, 2020, on average, the biological assets were 50% complete as to the next expected harvest date.
The significant unobservable inputs and their range of values are noted in the table below:
| | | Effect on Fair Value as of April 30: |
Significant Inputs and Assumptions | Range of Inputs | Sensitivity | 2020 | 2019 |
Selling Price Per | $0.15 to $9.58 | Increase 5% | 69,450 | 78,829 |
Gram | | Decrease 5% | (69,450) | (78,830) |
Estimated Yield Per | 60.59 to 848.11 grams | Increase 5% | 68,711 | 77,988 |
Cannabis Plant | | Decrease 5% | (68,711) | (77,990) |

This one-time non-cash charge is related to the fair value of inventory acquired in the Silver State acquisition which closed January 1, 2019. This inventory was fully sold during the first six months of the year ended January 31, 2020.

In analyzing the identified agreements, the Company applied the lessee accounting model pursuant to IFRS 16 and considered all of the facts and circumstances surrounding the inception of the contract (but not future events that are not likely to occur). Lease liabilities were calculated with discount rates ranging from 10-20%.
Based on all the facts and circumstances at the inception of the contract, the Company has determined that all identified agreements contain a lease as defined by IFRS 16, including:

17. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES AND PROMISSORY NOTES
Convertible debentures and convertible promissory notes are compound financial instruments that are accounted for based on their components of financial liability and equity. The financial liability component represents the Company's future obligation to pay coupon interest and principal. The liability component is initially measured at its net present value and subsequently measured at its amortized cost. After the net present value of the financial liability is determined, any residual amount is reported as an equity instrument at the convertible debentures' issuance date.
Transaction costs related to the issuance of convertible notes are apportioned to their respective financial liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds as a reduction to the carrying amount of each component.
17. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES AND PROMISSORY NOTES (continued)
When valuing the financial liability component of the convertible notes, the Company used specific interest rates assuming no conversion features existed. The resulting liability component is accreted to its face value over the convertible note's term until its maturity date.

25. TAXATION
The Company reconciles the expected tax expense at the U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% to the amount recognized in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.
Since the Company operates in the United States cannabis industry, the Company is subject to U.S. Internal Revenue Code section 280E for U.S. federal income tax purposes; and therefore, is subject to the disallowance of ordinary and necessary business deductions for income tax purposes pursuant to section 280E. Consequently, the Company is only allowed to deduct 1) direct production costs and indirect production costs incident to and necessary for production and 2) costs incurred to purchase goods that are resold, including transportation or other necessary charges incurred in acquiring possession of the goods. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-allowable under IRC section 280E. However, the State of Oregon does not conform to IRC section 280E and thus the Company deducts all operating expenses on its Oregon corporate tax return. Additionally, the State of Nevada does not assess income tax and therefore no income tax provision for Nevada has been calculated.
26. COMMITMENTS
