DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Our Business

We are a leading Canadian consumer packaged goods company in the cannabis products market, headquartered in Toronto, Canada. Our focus is on developing, manufacturing and distributing branded cannabis products that delight wellness and recreational consumers.

Our vision is to be a global leader in branded cannabis products that deliver on our consumer promise of quality, safety and efficacy.

Canadian Market

On October 17, 2018, the Cannabis Act came into force, initially permitting the recreational sale of certain classes of cannabis products, including dried cannabis, fresh cannabis, cannabis plants, cannabis seeds, and cannabis oil (collectively referred to as "Cannabis 1.0 Products"). On October 17, 2019, edible cannabis, cannabis extracts and cannabis topicals were added to the authorized classes of cannabis (collectively referred to as "Cannabis 2.0 Products", and together with Cannabis 1.0 Products, collectively referred to as "Cannabis Products") and such Cannabis

2.0 Products were first available for sale on December 16, 2019. Since 2019, Health Canada undertook a consultation, established a Scientific Advisory Committee, and has been engaged in discussions regarding the possible legalization of Cannabis Health Products, which would permit the making of health claims in respect of cannabis products without the required oversight of a practitioner such as a doctor but such products are not currently permitted.

Canadian Strategy and Capabilities

Brand Portfolio and Product Offering

We have created a portfolio of brands designed for a broad market of cannabis consumers, with differentiation in price points across targeted consumer segments.

4

Based upon consumer insights, Auxly has developed a broad portfolio of Cannabis Products to meet the evolving needs and preferences of Canadian cannabis consumers. Our initial focus has been on the development of Cannabis 2.0 Products and we were one of the first cannabis companies to distribute and sell Cannabis 2.0 Products across Canada following their legalization.

We were the top-selling licensed producer of Cannabis 2.0 Products nationally in 2020 and continue to be a leader in the Cannabis 2.0 Product segment in 2021, the Company has also begun introducing additional Cannabis 1.0 Products to the market and is now the #6 licensed producer in Canada by total market revenue as of the date of this MD&A as reported by Headset1.

Our Cannabis Products available during the second quarter of 2021 are described below by brand and product format:

Our Cannabis Products have been well received by consumers. We plan to further strengthen our brand recognition and use consumer insights to drive innovation as we continue to introduce new Cannabis Products to the Canadian market, with an emphasis on expanding our dried flower and pre-roll offerings over the course of 2021.
