C21 INVESTMENTS INC. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 (Expressed in U.S. dollars, except as noted)

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

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 170-601 West Cordova Street, Vancouver, BC, V6B 1G1.

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.

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 the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority for trading on the OTC Markets platform under the U.S. trading symbol CXXIF. On September 28, 2020, the Company began trading on the OTCQB® Venture Market.

The Company initially operated in two segments: recreational cannabis in Oregon, USA and recreational and medical cannabis in Nevada, USA (Note 16). During the year ended January 31, 2022, the Company made the strategic decision to exit operations in Oregon. Operating results of the Oregon segment are presented as discontinued operations. The Nevada segment remains engaged in the cultivation of and manufacturing of cannabis flower products, vape products and extract products for wholesale and retail sales.

As at April 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital deficit of $6,138,307 (January 31, 2023 - $6,231,895) and an accumulated deficit of $69,942,757 (January 31, 2023 - $69,471,712). However, for the three months ended April 30, 2023, the Company generated positive operating cash flows from continuing operations.

At the federal level, however, cannabis currently remains a Schedule I controlled substance under the Federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970. 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 status. A change in its enforcement policies could impact the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

2.BASIS OF PREPARATION

a)Basis of presentation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 ("consolidated financial statements") are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical costs, except for certain financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss.

b)Functional and reporting currency

The functional currency of C21 Investments Inc. is Canadian dollars ("C$"), and the functional currency of the Company's subsidiaries is U.S. dollars. C21 has determined that the U.S. dollar ("USD") is the most relevant and appropriate reporting currency as the Company's operations are conducted in U.S. dollars and its financial results are prepared and reviewed internally by management in U.S. dollars. The consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

c)Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the accounts of the Company and all the entities in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. 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 from the date of acquisition. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

3.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for the years ended January 31, 2023 and 2022. There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies.

a)Significant accounting estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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.

Areas requiring a significant degree of estimation and judgment relate to the determination of recoverability of goodwill, recoverability of intangible assets, fair value less costs to sell of assets classified as held for sale, estimates used in valuation and costing of inventory, impairment of long-lived assets and inventory, fair value measurements, useful lives, depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and intangible assets, the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, share-based compensation, and fair value of derivative liability.

3.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

b)Recently issued accounting pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") did not or are not believed by management to have a material effect on the Company's present or future financial statements.

4.DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

a)Sales-type lease and disposal of licenses

In January 2022, the Company entered into a lease-to-own arrangement with a lessee for certain licenses, land and equipment in Oregon, USA, representing its outdoor growing operation. The Company determined that the arrangement should be accounted for as a sales-type lease and concluded that it is not probable that all required payments will be made such that title will transfer at the end of the term. As such, in accordance with ASC 842, the land and equipment are not derecognized, and payments received are recorded as a deposit liability until such time that collectability becomes probable.

During the three months ended April 30, 2023, the Company executed a settlement agreement to terminate the lease-to-own arrangement. In the period preceding the settlement agreement date, the Company collected a cumulative $100,000 in connection with the lease-to-own arrangement and $75,000 for a separate sale of three licenses in Bend, Oregon (contingent upon State regulatory approval) to the same lessee, which were recorded as a deposit liability. Under the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to transfer certain licenses with a carrying value of $32,250, in exchange for $400,000, which was paid by the lessee. In addition, the Company retained the cumulative $100,000 lease-to-own arrangement payments made to date. As a result, the Company recognized a gain on termination of sales-type lease and disposal of licenses of $467,750. The remaining deposit liability of $75,000 (January 31, 2023 - $175,000) relates to the separate sale of licenses in Bend, Oregon, which remain pending State regulatory approval.

b)Oregon reporting unit

As a result of non-profitable operations in the Oregon reporting unit, the Company began to wind down operations in Oregon beginning in the year ended January 31, 2021. By January 31, 2022, the Company made the decision to cease all growing, manufacturing, and processing activities in Bend, Oregon. As the Oregon reporting unit comprises the assets of multiple components in distinct geographic locations, management anticipates completing the sale on a piecemeal basis. Management is engaged in an active program to seek buyers for the major classes of assets and liabilities in Oregon in order to complete a sale.

Prepaid expenses classified as held for sale primarily relate to the renewal of licenses that may be transferred in the event of a sale and prepaid insurance. During the three months ended April 30, 2023, the Company terminated all operating lease agreements in Oregon and paid a settlement payment of $151,350. As a result, security deposits with a carrying amount of $43,796 were written off and the Company recognized a loss on lease termination of $13,419.

Long-term debt comprises equipment and vehicle loans and a building mortgage. The mortgage was entered into on February 1, 2015 and matures on February 1, 2035 (20 years). The mortgage bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.5% with payments made monthly. The equipment and vehicle loans consist of three loans with maturity dates ranging from June 1, 2021 through May 15, 2023 and interest rates ranging from 5.59% to 19.9% with payments made monthly. During the three months ended April 30, 2023, other expenses included interest expense of $4,745 (2022 - $5,037) incurred on this long-term debt. During the three months ended April 30, 2023, an amount of $11,388 (2022 - 23,986) was repaid in connection with the long-term debt.

14.SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

As at April 30, 2023 and January 31, 2023, outstanding and exercisable stock options had intrinsic values of $nil and $nil, respectively.

During the three months ended April 30, 2023, the Company recorded a share-based compensation of $5,507 (2022 - $102,786).

A summary of the Company's assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock options granted during the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

		2023			2022
Stock price		-			C$0.61
Exercise price		-			C$0.70
Risk-free rate		-			1.60%
Expected life of options		-			3 years
Annualized volatility		-			80%
Dividend rate		-			0%

The Company has computed the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected term used for options issued to non-employees is the contractual life and the expected term used for options issued to employees and directors is the estimated period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company utilizes the "simplified" method to develop an estimate of the expected term of "plain vanilla" employee option grants. The Company is utilizing an expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, equivalent to the expected life of the instrument being valued, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument being valued.

19.EARNINGS PER SHARE

A summary of the Company's calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

		2023			2022
Net income (loss) from continuing operations after income taxes	$	(387,154	)	$	1,037,145
Net loss from discontinued operations after income taxes	$	(83,891	)	$	(730,325	)
Net income (loss)	$	(471,045	)	$	306,820
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding		120,047,814			120,047,814
Dilutive effect of warrants and stock options outstanding		2,833,093			2,833,093
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding		122,880,907			122,880,907
Basic income (loss) per share, continuing operations	$	(0.00	)	$	0.01
Diluted income (loss) per share, continuing operations	$	(0.00	)	$	0.01
Basic loss per share, discontinued operations	$	(0.00	)	$	(0.01	)
Diluted loss per share, discontinued operations	$	(0.00	)	$	(0.01	)
Basic income (loss) per share	$	(0.00	)	$	0.00
Diluted income (loss) per share	$	(0.00	)	$	0.00

The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the effect of the potential exercise of warrants and stock options when the average market price of the common stock is lower than the exercise price of the respective warrant or stock option and when inclusion of these amounts would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, the number of warrants excluded from the computation was 1,200,000 and 1,200,000, respectively. For the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, the number of stock options excluded from the computation was 4,609,999 and 4,003,331, respectively. In addition, for the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022, the computation of diluted earnings per share excludes the potential issuance of 1,207,200 remaining earn out shares (Note 13) as the market price of the common shares has not been high enough to trigger an earn out event.

20.CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is involved in various litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of its business. Management is of the opinion that disposition of any current matter will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or the ability to carry on any of its business activities.

a)Legal proceedings

Oregon Action: A complaint was filed in the Oregon State Circuit Court for Clackamas County, on April 29, 2019, by two current owners of Proudest Monkey Holdings, LLC (the former sole member of EFF) (the "Plaintiffs"), alleging contract, employment, and statutory claims, alleging $612,500 in damages (as amended), against the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries 320204 US Holdings Corp, EFF, Swell Companies Limited, and Phantom Brands LLC, in addition to three directors, two officers, and one former employee (the "Oregon Action"). The Company and the other defendants wholly denied the allegations and claims made in the lawsuit and is defending the lawsuit. On June 21, 2019, the Company filed Oregon Rule of Civil Procedure ("ORCP") 21 motions to dismiss all of the Plaintiffs' claims against it, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and other defendants. On December 30, 2019, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint dismissing the Company (and some of its directors and subsidiaries) from the case and reducing the amount in controversy in the Oregon Action. On May 6, 2020, the court granted the Company's ORCP 21 motions in its entirety to dismiss all of Plaintiffs' claims against the remaining defendants. The judgment of dismissal was entered by the Clackamas County court on or about October 14, 2020.

On October 22, 2020, the Company submitted a petition to recover the costs and attorney fees incurred by the Company as the prevailing party in the Oregon Action. On January 20, 2021, the Court ruled in the Company's favor, awarding the Company and its subsidiaries $68,195 in attorney's fees, $1,252 in costs, and a statutory prevailing party fee of $640, through a supplemental judgment, entered on February 2, 2021. The judgment in favor of the Company remains unpaid and continues to collect interest at the statutory rate of 9% per annum.

20.CONTINGENCIES (continued)

On November 12, 2020, the plaintiffs appealed the order dismissing the claims alleged in their amended complaint. On March 2, 2021, the plaintiffs amended their appeal to appeal the award of attorney fees and costs.

On October 26, 2022, the Court of Appeals issued its decision, reversing the general and supplemental judgments in favor of the Company and remanding the case to the trial court for further proceedings. The Company filed a petition for reconsideration of the Court of Appeals decision on December 7, 2022, which was denied.

On April 19, 2023, the Company filed a petition for review in the Oregon Supreme Court. The petition for review is pending. The Company cannot predict if the Oregon Supreme Court will grant certiorari to hear the appeal, and if so, the likely resolution of the appeal.

British Columbia Action: On or about September 13, 2019, the Company delivered a notice to the above-mentioned Plaintiffs of alleged breach and default under the EFF purchase and sale agreement, due to alleged unlawful, intentional acts and material misrepresentations by the Plaintiffs before and after the completion of the purchase. As a result of such breach, the Company denied the Plaintiffs' tender of their share payment notes in connection with the agreement. On or about October 14, 2019, Proudest Monkey Holdings, LLC and one of its current owners, sued the Company in the Supreme Court of British Columbia to compel the issuance and delivery of the subject shares, including interests and costs (the "British Columbia Action").

On November 8, 2019, the Company responded and counterclaimed for general, special and punitive damages, including interest and costs, related to breach of contract, repudiation of contract, breach of indemnity and fraudulent and negligent misrepresentation by the Plaintiffs. The Plaintiffs filed a response to the Company's counterclaims on or about June 5, 2020, and the parties stipulated to a form of amended pleading which included the joinder of additional parties, an owner of Proudest Monkey Holdings, LLC and EFF, and additional contract and equitable claims and damages, partially duplicative to those alleged by the Plaintiffs in the Oregon Action (breach of contract, indemnity, unjust enrichment and wrongful termination claims). Plaintiffs allege $2,774,176.05 in damages (as amended), plus unquantified additional damages, interest and costs, of which amounts are partially duplicative of the Oregon Action. This action remains in the discovery stage, and the trial date is scheduled for February 2024. It is too early to predict the resolution of the claims and counterclaims.

Settled and Dismissed Action: On or about May 30, 2019, Wallace Hill Partners Ltd. ("Wallace Hill") filed a civil claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia alleging breach of contract and entitlement to 1,800,000 Common Shares of the Company, fully vested by March 1, 2019, and damages due to the lost opportunity to sell those shares after such date for a profit. On June 23, 2019, the Company circulated a letter to Wallace Hill terminating the agreement and accepting Wallace Hill's repudiation of the agreement based on Wallace Hill's previously published defamatory comments and termination of the agreement. On June 23, 2019, the Company filed its response to the civil claim denying all claims and filed counterclaims alleging breach of contract, a declaratory judgment of termination of the agreement, defamation and an injunction from further defamatory comments.

On March 23, 2022, the Company and Wallace Hill entered into a mutual release agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, all parties agreed to dismiss their respective claims and to release one another from any further causes of action in connection with the subject matter of the original claims. On April 23, 2022, the parties filed a Notice of Discontinuance in the Supreme Court of British Columbia formally dismissing the civil action.

21.INCOME TAXES

The following table summarizes the Company's income tax expense and effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 2023 and 2022:

A summary of the components of the Company's income taxes payable is as follows:

		April 30, 2023			April 30, 2022
Net income from continuing operations before income taxes	$	205,272		$	1,535,408
Income tax expense	$	592,426		$	498,263
Effective tax rate		289%			32%

The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and Canada. The Company has computed its provision for income taxes based on the actual effective tax rate for the quarter as management believes this is the best estimate for the annual effective tax rate. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's uncertain tax position and determining the provision for income taxes.
