CL Investors Debt Purchase and Assignment Agreement
On June 15, 2020, the Company, its first–tier subsidiaries Visava Inc. (“Visava”) CannaKorp Inc. (“CannaKorp”), and the Company’s second-tier subsidiary, Canary Rx Inc. (“Canary”), entered into a Debt Purchase and Assignment Agreement (“Agreement”) with CL Investors Inc. (“CLI”), a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. June 15th was the preliminary date of the agreement and the agreement was not finalized until the later date as indicated below. The CEO (and also a director) of the Company is the secretary and a shareholder of CLI plus the CEO’s brother is the President and sole director of CLI therefore the loan from CLI is classified under related party transactions.
Pursuant to the Agreement, CLI purchased from the Company for the sum of $2,115,840 (CAD 2,900,000) a debt obligation owing from Canary to the Company in the principal balance of $7,733,760 (CAD 10,600,000 (“Canary Debt”)). Upon receipt of the consideration, the Company loaned the full sum to Canary under terms of an unsecured, non-interest-bearing promissory note, subject to a covenant by the Company not to take any collection action so long as the Canary Debt remains unpaid to CLI.

| d) | In the fourth year of the Term, Canary will pay CLI the greater of $2,247,168(CAD 3,080,000) and fifty percent (50%) of the Net Revenue, by way of twelve (12) consecutive monthly installments payable on the 14th day of each month commencing on August 14, 2023, provided that where the latter amount exceeds the former amount, Canary will, within thirty (30) days following the end of such fourth year, pay CLI the balance of such amount owing for such fourth year; and |
| e) | In the fifth year of the Term, Canary will pay CLI the balance owing under this Note, by way of twelve (12) consecutive monthly installments payable on the 14th day of each month commencing on August 14, 2024, for an amount calculated by dividing twelve (12) into the sum of all amounts owing under this Note at the beginning of the fifth year of the Term on account of Principal and Interest, provided that where further amounts are owing under this Note at the end of such fifth year, Canary will pay CLI all such further amounts within five (5) days following the end of such fifth year. |
For this Note, “Net Revenue” will mean all revenue generated from Canary’s Licensed Facility (hereinafter defined) to which it is entitled to the net of applicable taxes and third-party expenses.
The repayment of the Canary Debt, as amended, is guaranteed by Visava and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary CannaKorp Inc. and secured by (i) a general security interest in the assets of the Company, Canary, Visava and CannaKorp Inc., respectively; and (ii) a pledge by the Company of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Canary, Visava and CannaKorp Inc. held by the Company. In addition to the foregoing guarantees, security interest and stock pledge, CLI has been granted an option, in lieu of repayment of the amended Canary Debt, to demand, in its sole and absolute discretion the transfer, assignment and conveyance of 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary. Furthermore, the President and sole director of CLI has been granted an option to acquire the remaining 25% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary.

In consideration of the foregoing, Mr., Schindermann resigned as a director of the Company and from all administrative and executive positions with the Company’s subsidiaries Visava Inc., Canary Rx Inc. and CannaKorp Inc., respectively. In addition, the Company issued Common Stock Purchase Warrant for 10,000,000 shares of Target common stock to CLI as consideration for the Agreement. Refer to Note 11 for additional details on warrants. The combined impact of both transactions resulted in a debt issuance cost of $251,518. This debt issuance cost will be amortized over the term of the debt on a straight-line basis.
The transactions contemplated by the Agreement and the Amendment closed on August 14, 2020.
Going Concern and Management Plans
The Company has earned minimal revenue since inception to date and has sustained operating losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company had a working capital deficit of $5,517,148 and an accumulated deficit of $26,861,862 as of September 30, 2022. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its members or other sources, as may be required.

TARGET GROUP INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern up to at least 12 months from the balance sheet date; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
To maintain its current level of operations, the Company will require additional working capital from either cash flow from operations or the sale of its equity. However, the Company currently has no commitments from any third parties for the purchase of its equity. If the Company is unable to acquire additional working capital, it will be required to significantly reduce its current level of operations.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC and are expressed in US dollars. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022, or for any other interim period. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Visava Inc./Canary RX Inc. and CannaKorp, Inc. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates may include those pertaining to accruals. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined on a weighted average cost basis, and market whichever being determined as the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company records write-downs of inventory that is obsolete or in excess of anticipated demand or market value based on consideration of product lifecycle stage, technology trends, product development plans and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand, and such differences may have a material effect on recorded inventory values. Inventory write-downs are charged to the cost of revenue and establish a new cost basis for the inventory. The cost is determined based on the average cost or first-in, first-out methods.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are reported at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets, commencing when the assets become available for productive use, based on the following estimated useful lives:
F-5
Depreciation is calculated using the following terms and methods:
Furniture & office equipment |
| Straight-line |
| 7 years |
Machinery & equipment |
| Straight-line |
| 3-5 years |
Software | Straight-line | 3 years | ||
Leasehold improvements |
| Straight-line |
| Lease period |
An item of equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from the derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying value of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period the asset is derecognized. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| ● | Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. |
| ● | Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. |
| ● | Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. |
The estimated fair value of cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The derivative liabilities of the promissory convertible notes and warrant liabilities are valued Level 3, refer to Note 10 and 11 for further details.
Revenue recognition
As per guidance under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contracts with our customers are satisfied. Our performance obligation generally consists of the promise to sell our finished products to our customers, wholesalers, distributors or retailers. Control of the finished products is transferred upon shipment to, or receipt at, our customers’ locations, as determined by the specific terms of the contract. Once control is transferred to the customer, we have completed our performance obligation, and revenue is recognized.
The Company did not generate any revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
In addition, Canary generated revenue of $3,177,105 (though its investment in JVCo) during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (period ended September 30, 2021: $1,469,900) and is represented as a share of income (losses) from joint venture on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statement of operations. The revenue was concentrated to five customers which exceeded 5% of total revenue (2021: six). The revenue represents the sale of cannabis products. Since the customers have received the product and there are no further obligations as per the agreement, revenue was recognized. Refer to Note 6 for additional details.

Equity Method Investments
The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments when the Company has the ability to significantly influence, but not control, the operations or financial activities of the investee. As part of this evaluation, the Company considers the participating and protective rights in the venture as well as its legal form. The Company records the equity method investments at cost and subsequently adjust their carrying amount each period for the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of the investee and other adjustments required by the equity method of accounting. Distributions received from the equity method investments are recorded as reductions in the carrying value of such investments and are classified on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows pursuant to the cumulative earnings approach. Under this approach, distributions received are considered returns on investment and are classified as cash inflows from operating activities unless the cumulative distributions received, less distributions received in prior periods that were determined to be returns of investment, exceed the cumulative equity in earnings recognized from the investment. When such an excess occurs, the current period distributions up to this excess are considered returns of investment and are classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
The Company monitors equity method investments for impairment and records reductions in their carrying values if the carrying amount of an investment exceeds its fair value. An impairment charge is recorded when such impairment is deemed to be other than temporary. To determine whether an impairment is other than temporary, we consider our ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying amount is fully recovered. Circumstances that indicate an impairment may have occurred include factors such as decreases in quoted market prices or declines in the operations of the investee. The evaluation of the investment for potential impairment requires us to exercise significant judgment and to make certain assumptions. The use of different judgments and assumptions could result in different conclusions. The Company has recorded no impairment losses related to our equity method investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The FASB recently issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470- 20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, to reduce complexity in applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The guidance in ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. The guidance in ASC 470-20 applies to convertible instruments for which the embedded conversion features are not required to be bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as derivatives. In addition, the amendments revise the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification. These amendments are expected to result in more freestanding financial instruments qualifying for equity classification (and, therefore, not accounted for as derivatives), as well as fewer embedded features requiring separate accounting from the host contract. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 further revise the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share (EPS) for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted (for “emerging growth company” beginning after December 15, 2023). The Company has adopted this standard effective from January 1, 2021, and the adoption of this standard did not have any significant impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
3. Inventory
As of September 30, 2022, the inventory of $99,000 (December 31, 2021: $99,000) consists of finished goods and is held at a third-party location.
In addition, the inventory of $99,000 (December 31, 2021: $99,000) is secured against the loan provided by the Company’s shareholder. Refer to Note 8 for further details.

The Company has recorded $nil (December 31, 2021: $509) of allowance as of September 30, 2022.
5. Fixed Assets

On May 1, 2019, the Company completed the construction of its 44,000 square foot cannabis cultivation facility and on May 14, 2019, the Company submitted a Site Evidence Package to Health Canada as part of the steps to obtain the license to cultivate cannabis at the Company’s facility. On October 8, 2019, the Company was granted licenses to cultivate, process and sell cannabis pursuant to the Cannabis Act (Bill C-45). Canary currently operates as a licensed producer/wholesaler of craft cannabis in Ontario and has since been granted its sales amendment from Health Canada to sell directly to provincial retail boards for consumer products.
Canary has recorded a depreciation expense of $672,503 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (September 30, 2021: $864,866) while CannaKorp has recorded a depreciation expense of $846 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (September 30, 2021: $39,752).

7. Goodwill
Business Acquisition
ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” requires that all business combinations be accounted for using the acquisition method and that certain identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”) requires goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets with indefinite useful lives not be amortized, such as trade names, but instead tested at least annually for impairment (which the Company tests each year end, absent any impairment indicators) and be written down if impaired. ASC 350 requires that goodwill be allocated to its respective reporting unit and that identifiable intangible assets with finite lives be amortized over their useful lives.
CannaKorp Inc.
Effective January 25, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (“Exchange Agreement”) with CannaKorp Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CannaKorp”). Company had previously entered into a Letter of Intent with CannaKorp dated November 30, 2018, which was disclosed in the Company’s report on Form 8-K filed December 4, 2018.
The Exchange Agreement provides that, subject to its terms and conditions, the Company issued to the CannaKorp shareholders an aggregate of 30,407,412 shares of the Company’s common stock, based on a price per share of $0.10, in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of CannaKorp held by the CannaKorp shareholders. In addition, the Company issued Common Stock Purchase Warrants (“Warrants”) in exchange for all outstanding and promised CannaKorp stock options. The Warrants granted the holders thereof the right to purchase up to approximately 7,211,213 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company also assumed all outstanding liabilities of CannaKorp. Upon the closing of the Exchange Agreement, CannaKorp continued its business operations as a subsidiary of the Company. The transaction was closed effective March 1, 2019.
Due to the publicly traded nature of the Company’s shares of the common stock, the equity issuance of the shares was considered to be a more reliable measurement of the fair market value of the transaction compared to having a separate valuation of the net assets. This acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. As of March 1, 2019, the fair value of the net liabilities was $2,534,121 and the purchase consideration was fair valued as $4,062,844, shown below, leading to a goodwill allocation of $6,071,627.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the goodwill was revaluated after the completion of CannaKorp’s audit of the year ended December 31, 2018. This resulted in changing the balance on the acquisition date, March 1, 2019, thereby increasing the goodwill by $369,315 to $6,071,627.
However, during the same year the Company identified circumstances that would call for an evaluation of goodwill impairment and therefore impaired $1,485,925 reducing the goodwill related to the CannaKorp to $4,585,702.
Further, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company identified circumstances that would call for an evaluation of goodwill impairment and therefore the remaining balance of goodwill related to the CannaKorp to $nil.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, all of the warrants expired, none were exercised.
Visava Inc./Canary Rx Inc.
On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (“Exchange Agreement”) with Visava Inc., a private Ontario, Canada corporation (“Visava”). Visava owns 100% of Canary Rx Inc., a Canadian corporation that holds a leasehold interest in a parcel of property located in Ontario’s Garden Norfolk County for the production of cannabis.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Visava Inc. in exchange for the issuance of 25,500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and will issue to the Visava shareholders, prorate Common Stock Purchase Warrants purchasing an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price per share of $0.10 for two years following the issuance date of the Warrants. As a result of this transaction, Visava Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The transaction was closed effective August 2, 2018.
This acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. As of August 2, 2018, the fair value of the net liabilities was $275,353 and the purchase consideration was fair valued as $3,318,842, shown below, leading to a goodwill allocation of $3,594,195.

During the period and year ended September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the Company has identified no circumstances which would call for further evaluation of goodwill impairment related to Canary.
During the year ended, December 31, 2020, all of the warrants expired, none were exercised.
Goodwill
The Company tests for impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit level. In assessing whether goodwill is impaired, the Company utilizes the two-step process as prescribed by ASC 350. The first step of this test compares the fair value of the reporting unit, determined based upon discounted estimated future cash flows, to the carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, no further work is required and no impairment loss is recognized. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit is potentially impaired and step two of the goodwill impairment test would need to be performed to measure the amount of an impairment loss, if any. In the second step, the impairment is computed by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill is greater than the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss in the amount of the excess is recognized and charged to the statement of operations.
8. Related Party Transactions and Balances
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company expensed $102,915 (September 30, 2021: $226,359) in management service fee for services provided by the current key officers of the company.

9. Operating Lease Right-Of-Use Assets and Lease Liability
The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective approach and applying the standard’s transition provisions at January 1, 2020, the effective date. The Company made an accounting policy election to exclude from balance sheet reporting those leases with initial terms of 12 months or less. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination generally depends on whether the arrangement conveys to the Company the right to control the use of an explicitly or implicitly identified fixed asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed to the Company if the Company obtains the rights to direct the use of and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from using the underlying asset. The Company has lease agreements which include lease and non-lease components, which the Company has elected to account for as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. Lease expense for variable lease components is recognized when the obligation is probable.
Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ASC 842 requires a lessee to discount its unpaid lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or if that rate cannot be readily determined, its incremental borrowing rate. As an implicit interest rate is not readily determinable in the Company’s leases, the incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor. Options for lease renewals have been excluded from the lease term (and lease liability) for the majority of the Company’s leases as the reasonably certain threshold is not met.
The Company does not own any real property and it currently leases two locations. For accounting purposes, these leases are treated as operating leases. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized $1,647,591 (CAD $2,258,212) of right-to-use assets as operating leases and operating lease obligations. The right-to-use asset was reduced by $1,524,806 (CAD 2,089,921) due to recognition of the prior deferred rent liability which was eliminated upon adoption of ASC 842. Details of these leases are detailed below:
During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company subleased its executive premises to a third party that makes rent payments directly to the landlord. However, if the sub-lessee cancels its sub-lease agreement with the landlord during the Company’s lease term with the landlord (ending on August 30, 2023), the Company will be responsible for making rent payments for the period from the date of cancellation by the sub-lessee to August 30, 2023.
The Company’s subsidiary, Canary, is a party to a 10-year lease agreement (initiated in July 2014) for its facility to produce Medical Marijuana. The lease agreement was amended effective January 1, 2020, where the amended 10-year term starts on May 1, 2020 and provides the Company with an option to extend for three (3) additional terms of ten (10) years. Additionally, effective January 1, 2020, the amended agreement increased the minimum rent to $25,536 (CAD 35,000) plus applicable taxes per month and on each anniversary date, commencing from January 1, 2021, the minimum rent will increase by 1.00%. Furthermore, only the current 10-year term has been factored into the calculation of the lease liability. Effective May 1, 2020, due to the implementation of the new lease, $721,059 (CAD 988,293) was forgiven by the landlord and one vendor.
F-14
These leases will expire between 2023 and 2030. The weighted average discount rate used for these leases was 16% (average borrowing rate of the Company). Maturities of lease liabilities were:

Below is the reconciliation of the net operating lease presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statement of operations:
As explained in Note 6, the JVCo reimburses a certain percentage of gross expenses incurred by Canary which includes rent and utilities. Due to this unique circumstance and since operating lease expense are related to rent expenses, the Company has decided to group the operating lease expenses, all lease-related expenses and the recoverable amount from JVCo to show a net operating lease expense.
10. Convertible Promissory Notes
Interest amounting to $27 was accrued for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (September 30, 2021: $99).

Warrants
Due to the change in the functional currency of the Company from United States Dollar to Canadian Dollar (which took place during year ended December 31, 2019), any outstanding warrants with an exercise price in United States Dollar no longer meet the scope exception of ASC 815 and therefore, should not be considered indexed to its own stock and as a result, these warrants have been revalued on each period end. The fair value of the warrants was measured on reporting dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

12. Earnings (Loss) Per Share
FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share provides for calculations of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share include no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
For three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, basic and diluted EPS are the same due to net loss position for both periods.
For three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, diluted EPS excludes the change due in fair value of derivative value and gain on forgiveness/settlement of debt which is causing the operating loss to turn into a net income, resulting in the basic and diluted EPS being same for this period.

Covid-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak as a global health emergency. This resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus, including the closure of certain non-essential businesses.
During the period and year ended September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the pandemic did not have a material impact on the Company’s operations. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not observe any material impairment of its assets or a significant change in the fair value of assets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has taken steps to minimize the potential impact of the pandemic including safety measures with respect to personal protective equipment, the reduction in travel and the implementation of a virtual office including regular video conference meetings and participation in virtual customer meetings and other virtual events.
Due to the rapid developments and uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, it is not possible to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on the Company’s business, balance sheet and operating results in the future. In addition, it is possible that estimates in the Company’s financial statements will change in the near term as a result of COVID-19 and the effect of any such changes could be material, which could result in, among other things, impairment of long-lived assets including goodwill. The Company is closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business.

Overview
Target Group Inc. (“Target Group” or “the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 2, 2013, under our original name of River Run Acquisition Corporation. Effective May 13, 2014, the Company changed its name to Chess Supersite Corporation. On July 3, 2018, we filed an amendment in our Certificate of Incorporation to change our name to Target Group Inc.
Effective October 18, 2018, our common stock became eligible for quotation on the OTCQB platform operated by OTC Markets Group Inc, under the symbol “CBDY”.
During the third quarter of 2022, the global spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) continued to have a significant impact on the Canadian and global economy and customer purchasing behavior, while equity markets remained volatile. However, these factors have not impacted the Company’s operations, financial results for the quarter.
Business and Plan of Operations
Cannabis Business-Canada
We are now engaged in the cultivation, processing and distribution of curated cannabis products for the adult-use medical and recreational cannabis market in Canada and, where legalized by state legislation, in the United States. We believe that there is a shift in the public’s perception of cannabis from a state of prohibition to a state of legalization. In October 2018, Canada became the first major industrialized nation to legalize adult-use cannabis at the national federal level. Cannabis is still heavily regulated. However, the medical use of cannabis is now permitted in up to 29 countries and many more countries have reformed, or are considering reforming, their cannabis uses laws to include the recreational use of cannabis.
In the 2016 publication by Deloitte, Insights and Opportunities Recreational Marijuana, the project size of the Canadian adult-use market ranged from CDN$4.9 billion to CDN$8.7 billion annually. In the 2018 publication by Deloitte, A Society in Transition, an Industry
4
Ready to Boom, the projected size of the Canadian adult-use market in 2019 ranged from CDN$1.8 billion to CDN$4.3 billion. The Canadian medical cannabis industry experienced substantial growth since 2014. Health Canada projects the Canadian cannabis market will reach CDN$1.3 billion in annual value by 2024.
We intend to position ourselves with a core emphasis on wholesale & co-packaging services to accommodate all consumer-packaged goods required for the sophisticated cannabis market in Canada and internationally. This will integrate cannabinoid research, analytical testing, product development and manufacturing.
Our product manufacturing will include, but will not be limited to the following:
| ● | Cannabis flower pods for vaporizer use |
| ● | Cannabis extract pods for vaporizer use |
| ● | Cannabis pre-rolls |
| ● | K-Cup infused coffee and tea pods |
| ● | Infused cannabis beverages |
| ● | Infused cannabis edibles |
| ● | Infused topical products and CBD wellness products. |
As of the date of this report, the Company (i.e., Target Group Inc. and its subsidiaries) does not have any operations, employees or corporate offices based in United States.
Acquisitions

Forward Looking Relating to Future Operations of the Company.

Employees

We have contracted several independent contractors and consultants to provide a range of information technology and marketing services who do not receive cash compensation but receive shares of our common stock as compensation. This mitigates any need for full or part-time employees for these services.
Intellectual Property Protection
Our subsidiary CannaKorp Inc. holds the following patents:
International Patent Application No. PCT/US20115/013778

At present, CannaKorp has failed to meet its annuities payments as well as maintenance fees on the 2 referenced patents. Although there has been a lapse and these patents remain unmaintained, there remains the possibility of CannaKorp reinstating these patents if done so in a reasonable amount of time. At this time, management is determining the value maintaining these patents will provide the company. Once management has completed their assessment, the company will proceed accordingly and advance in that determined direction moving forward.

Results of Operations
We have not generated significant revenue to date and consequently, our operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. Our analysis on the performance of the Company is as follows:

10
reflects net recovery of payments of salaries, rent, and other operating expenses of our subsidiary, Canary, and additional loan provided by a related party offset by payments of a loan to a different related party.
The change in restricted cash is due to foreign exchange conversion of balances in Canadian Dollar into United States Dollar.

Recoverable is due to the sales tax paid by the Company on expenses incurred during the year which are recoverable from the government while payable is due to the sales tax received (after deducting sales tax paid on expenses incurred by the Company) during the year which are payable from the government due to sales conducted by the Joint Venture.
Sales tax recoverable allowance on September 30, 2022 is $nil (December 31, 2021: $509).

The switch from using cash to providing cash is due to the JVCo starting to generate sales leading to reduced funding towards JVCo.
Financing activities
Financing activities used cash of $70,413 in 2022 compared to cash provided of $1,293,000 in the year 2021.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), we have carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
