High Fusion Inc. (CSE: FUZN) ("High Fusion" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its financial results for the first quarter ended October 31, 2021.

First Quarter Financial Highlights

• On August 31, 2021 the Company closed the acquisition of the business of OutCo Labs Inc. ("OutCo") through the purchase of substantially all the assets associated with the business including: control and management of all licenced entities; intellectual property; equipment and land. Based in San Diego California, the acquired business specializes in manufacturing and retailing premium quality cannabis flower and extract products under the OutCo name with 2019 and 2020 annual revenues of approximately US $8.6 million and US $8.2 million, respectively. Refer to the press release dated January 4, 2022 and Business Acquisition Report filed on December 1, 2021 including the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 with comparative qualified statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

• On August 27, 2021 the Company announced that in accordance with the previously approved shareholder resolution, its common shares will consolidate on a twenty (20) for one (1) basis with a record and effective date of September 3, 2021. All references to share amounts and share prices herein are on the post-consolidation basis.
• On September 29, 2021 the Company obtained approval from its shareholders to establish a class of multiple voting shares and to change the Common Shares of the Corporation to Subordinate Voting Shares ("Shares"). In addition, approval was obtained to change the name of the Company to "High Fusion Inc.". The Company name change took effect November 15, 2021 and on November 16, 2021 the Shares commenced trading on the CSE under the High Fusion name.

• On November 22, 2021 the Company announced that it intends to complete a financing into a subsidiary of the Company, Neural Therapeutics Inc. The financing will be by way of a non-brokered private placement. It is anticipated that Neural Therapeutics will subsequently undertake a spin-off as a stand-alone business with High Fusion maintaining a minority stake.

• On November 24, 2021 the Company announced that it received recreational licenses for both of the retail dispensaries acquired from OutCo.

"We are very pleased to report our first quarter where we are including the results from our acquisition of the business of OutCo which closed on August 31, 2021," stated John Durfy, CEO of High Fusion. "These reported numbers only include two months of results from OutCo and do not reflect the potential significant upside we expect from the recent county approval for expansion and receipt of recreational licences in November of last year. We believe the Company is poised for significant growth this year in California as well as Colorado and Oregon."

Summary Income Statement

• During the three months ended October 31, 2021 the Company's revenues were $1.3 million representing two months of the OutCo business acquired in August 31, 2021;

• Revenues and cost of goods sold for the quarter ended October 31, 2021 also includes Palo Verde which was acquired on March 12, 2021. Due to a change in management and equipment maintenance the results from Palo Verde have been lower than anticipated. As more working capital is invested into the Palo Verde business, management expects revenues and margins to improve; and

• Operating expenses increased to $1.9 million during the quarter ended October 31, 2021 compared with $1.1 million during the corresponding period of the prior year. This increase was primarily due the inclusion of general, administrative expenses and depreciation expenses associated with the business of OutCo as well as transaction costs associated with the acquisition.

Summary Balance Sheet

The most significant changes to the balance sheet during the first quarter were as follows:

• Increase in current assets and liabilities associated with payables, receivables and inventory acquired with the business of OutCo;

• The addition of leasehold improvements, land and goodwill added to non-current assets as a result of the acquisition of the business of OutCo; and

• Inclusion of a $3.7 million note payable to current liabilities associated with the land acquired as part of the acquisition of the business of OutCo.

Update on Management Cease Trade Order

As a result of the complications of including the business of OutCo acquired during the quarter, the Company experienced a delay in the completion of its first quarter financial statements for the period ending October 31, 2021. On December 16, 2021, the Company applied for and was granted on December 31, 2021 a temporary management cease trade order ("MCTO") under National Policy 12-203 - Management Cease Trade Orders ("NP 12-203")

With the completion and filing of the first quarter financial statements, the Company has met the deadline under the MCTO. The Company will advise if and when the MCTO has been revoked.
