and Uncertainties

COVID-19 pandemic and related economic repercussions created significant volatility and uncertainty impacting the Company’s results

for the period.

As part of our Content & Entertainment business, the Company sells DVDs and Blu-ray discs at brick-and-mortar stores.

With the closure of non-essential retail stores beginning in the spring of 2020, the sale of physical discs through our retail partners

declined although this was partially offset by digital rentals and purchases.

part of our Cinema Equipment business, the Company earns revenue when movies are exhibited in theatres.

As vaccines became readily available

and COVID-19 cases decreased, major studios resumed releasing blockbusters in the theatrical venues during the quarter ended June 30,

Films released during the summer period saw an uptick in box office revenue compared to the previous 12 months;

however, box office

results remained below pre-COVID expectations due to limited seating capacities and shortened windows for release on streaming platforms

such as premium video on demand (“PVOD”) and subscription video on demand (“SVOD”).

To the extent films are not

shown in theatres, we do not earn revenue.

term, there may be a shift in consumer preference towards digital consumption over theatrical viewing.

Studios may reduce their theatrical

slates to tentpoles and certain genres releasing other content directly on their own streaming services.

If fewer movies are released

theatrically, this shift to digital viewing reduces revenue opportunities for virtual print fees and sales of digital cinema equipment.

closures, which impact the Cinema Equipment business.

connection to the CEG business, if larger branded companies choose to make their content available earlier on their own streaming

platforms, this could limit our ability monetize this content on a transactional digital basis, as consumers can access it via the company’s

own streaming platform such as Hallmark Movie Now.

However, most content suppliers including filmmakers and producers, do not have their

own streaming platforms and rely on us for distribution through our digital home entertainment business and OTT digital networks.

As a result, this risk is limited, and our digital distribution capabilities and digital networks provide us with the opportunity to

take advantage of this consumer shift towards digital consumption.

the first year and a half of the COVD-19 pandemic, film and TV production slowed-down and independent producers and filmmakers had to

either suspend or delay their productions due to rising infection rates and the high costs of appropriate COVID-19 production protocols.

As a result, there are fewer available films to acquire, so our pipeline for content from completed films and co-productions has been

negatively impacted.

As well, with the rise of new variants, productions may be at risk again of shutting down, being delayed or

having prohibitive COVID-compliant costs which would further limit available content to acquire.

COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in an acceleration of cord-cutting, and, as more consumers move away from cable, this could lead

to a decrease in cable TV VOD revenues, as well as a decrease in licensing fees as Pay One window budgets get shifted from licensing

and towards originals.

However, given the overall shift towards digital consumption, these risks may be offset by increased revenues

from transactional, subscription and ad supported/FAST platforms, including our own owned and operated digital network business.

We have incurred net losses historically and have

an accumulated deficit of $469.3 million and negative working capital of $11.1 million as of September 30, 2021.

We may continue to generate

net losses for the foreseeable future.

In addition, we have contractual obligations related to our business acquisitions as of September

30, 2021 and beyond.

Based on these conditions, the Company entered into the following transactions:

February 2, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with a single institutional investor for the purchase and

sale of 5,600,000 shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at a purchase price

of $1.25 per share, in a registered direct offering, pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 which was declared

effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2020 (File No.

333-239710) (the “2020 Shelf Registration Statement”)

As part of our Cinema Equipment business, the

Company earns revenue when movies are exhibited in theatres.

As vaccines became readily available and COVID-19 cases decreased, major

studios continued to release tentpole films in the theatrical markets as box office results steadily showed improvement in the three

months ending December 31, 2021.

However, the number of wide releases remains below pre-pandemic levels in this quarter as studios

continue to shuffle release dates and test theatrical windows.

The Canadian government tightened Movie Theatre restrictions amid

a Covid surge due to the Omicron variant as well as shuttering all Quebec theatres during this quarter.

Movie theatres in the U.S.

remained open and continued to follow NATO CinemaSafe protocols in an effort to help reinforce consumer confidence in the safety of the

theatrical moviegoing experience

Longer term, there may be a shift in consumer

preference towards digital consumption over theatrical viewing.

Studios may reduce their theatrical slates to tentpoles and certain genres

releasing other content directly on their own streaming services first.

If fewer movies are released theatrically, this shift to digital

viewing reduces revenue opportunities for virtual print fees and sales of digital cinema equipment.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in an

acceleration of cord-cutting, and, as more consumers move away from cable and satellite, this could lead to a decrease in cable/satellite

TV VOD revenues, as well as a decrease in licensing fees as Pay One window budgets shift from licensing and towards originals.

However, given the overall shift towards digital consumption, these risks may be offset by increased revenues from transactional, subscription

and ad supported/FAST platforms, including our own owned and operated digital network business.

In addition, we have had debt-related contractual obligations.

Upon a series of payments between April 30 and July 9, 2021, the

Company paid in full the Prospect Loan (as defined below) non-recourse debt amount by paying an aggregate principal amount of $7.8 million.

As of December 31, 2021 there was $0 million principal outstanding and there was no availability under the Credit Facility which expired

on September 28, 2021.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 was $4.7 million.

On April 10, 2020, the Company entered into another

stock purchase agreement (the “April Starrise Stock Purchase Agreement”) with five (5) shareholders of Starrise – Bison

Global Investment SPC – Bison Global No.

1 SP, Huatai Investment LP, Antai Investment LP, Mingtai Investment LP and Shangtai Asset

Management LP – all of which are related parties to the Company, to buy an aggregate of 223,380,000 outstanding Starrise ordinary

shares from them and for the Company to issue to them an aggregate of 29,855,081 shares of Common Stock as consideration therefor (the

“April Starrise Share Acquisition”).

On April 15, 2020, the April Starrise Share Acquisition was consummated and this transaction

was also recorded as an equity investment in Starrise.

Starrise’s ordinary shares (HK 1616) are listed on the main board

of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Based on the closing price of HKD 0.159 per share on February 11, 2022, calculated at an exchange

rate of 7.8 Hong Kong Dollars to 1 US dollar, the market value of Cinedigm’s ownership in Starrise ordinary shares was approximately

$7.4 million.

On June 22, 2021, the maturity date of the East West Credit Facility

(as defined in Note 5 - Notes Payable) with East West Bank was extended from June 30, 2021 to September 28, 2021 and was not extended.

On April 15, 2020, the Company received $2.2 million

from East West Bank, the Company’s existing lender, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”) of

the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”).

The PPP Loan matures on April 10, 2022 (the “PPP

Maturity Date”), accrues interest at 1% per annum and may be prepaid in whole or in part without penalty.

No interest payments

are due within the initial six months of the PPP Loan.

The interest accrued during the initial six-month period is due and payable, together

with the principal, on the PPP Maturity Date.

The Company used all proceeds from the PPP Loan to retain employees, maintain payroll and

make lease and utility payments to support business continuity throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, which amounts are intended to be eligible

for forgiveness, subject to the provisions of the CARES Act and could be subject to repayment.

On July 7, 2021, the Company received

notification from the Lender that the U.S.

Small Business Administration had approved the Company’s PPP Loan forgiveness application

for the entire PPP Loan amount and accrued interest effective as of June 30, 2021.

The forgiveness of the PPP Loan was recognized as

a gain of $2.2 million during the Company’s fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2021.

Upon a series of payments between April 30 and

July 9, 2021, the Company paid in full the Prospect Loan (as defined in Note 5 – Notes Payable ) outstanding non-recourse

debt amount by paying an aggregate principal amount of $7.8 million.

Pre-payment of the Prospect Loan was permissible without penalty.

Common Stock Purchase Agreement

In October 2021, we entered into a Common Stock

Purchase Agreement (the “Equity Line Purchase Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights

Agreement”) with B.

Riley Principal Capital, LLC (“B.

Riley Principal Capital”).

Pursuant to the Equity Line Purchase

Agreement, the Company has the right to sell to B.

Riley Principal Capital up to the lesser of (i) $50,000,000 of newly issued shares

of Common Stock and (ii) the Exchange Cap (as defined below) (subject to certain conditions and limitations), from time to time during

the 24-month period from and after the October 21, 2021.

Sales of Common Stock pursuant to the Equity Line Purchase Agreement, and the

timing of any sales, are solely at the option of the Company, and the Company is under no obligation to sell any securities to B.

Principal Capital under the Equity Line Purchase Agreement.

As consideration for B.

Riley Principal Capital’s commitment to purchase

shares of Common Stock at the Company’s direction upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Equity Line Purchase

Agreement, upon execution of the Equity Line Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 210,084 shares of Common Stock to B.

Riley Principal

Capital (the “Commitment Shares”).

The purchase price of the shares of Common Stock that we elect to sell to B.

Riley Principal

Capital pursuant to the Equity Line Purchase Agreement will be determined by reference to the volume weighted average price of the Common

Stock (“VWAP”) during the applicable purchase date, less a fixed 5% discount to such VWAP.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights

Agreement, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission

on October 21, 2021 (File No.

333-260210) for the resale by B.

Riley Principal Capital of up to 25,210,084 shares of Common Stock (including

the Commitment Shares) acquired pursuant to the Equity Line Purchase Agreement.

During October and November 2021, we sold 5,300,000 shares

of Common Stock under the Equity Line Purchase Agreement.

Net proceeds from such sales totaled $12.4 million.

We believe the combination of:

(i) our cash and cash equivalent balances

at December 31, 2021 and (ii) expected cash flows from operations, as well as liquidity for our operational and capital needs, for twelve

months from the filing of this report.

Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, and we may need to use capital resources

and obtain additional capital.

Failure to generate additional revenues, obtain additional capital or manage discretionary spending could

have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and liquidity.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared

in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

In connection with

the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments

that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures.

We base our assumptions, estimates

and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated

financial statements are prepared.

On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments

to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP.

However, because future events and their effects

cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

Our significant accounting policies are discussed

in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Financial Statements

and Supplementary Data , of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Management believes that the following accounting policies are the

most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require management’s most difficult,

subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with the Audit Committee of our board of directors.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less

accumulated depreciation and amortization.

Depreciation expense is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful

lives of the respective assets as follows:

Computer equipment and software

Internal use software

Digital cinema projection systems

Machinery and equipment

Furniture and fixtures

Leasehold improvements are being amortized over

the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the improvement.

Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as

Major renewals, improvements and additions are capitalized.

lives are determined based on an estimate of either physical or economic obsolescence, or both.

During the three and six months ended

September 30, 2021 and 2020, we have neither made any revisions to estimated useful lives, nor recorded any impairment charges on our

property, equipment and internal use software.

VALUE ESTIMATES

Finite-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets

evaluate our goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year (as of March 31), or whenever events or changes in circumstances

indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying amount.

The determination of whether or not goodwill has become impaired

involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of our reporting units.

Inherent in the fair value determination for each reporting unit are certain judgments and estimates relating to future cash flows, including

management’s interpretation of current economic indicators and market conditions, and assumptions about our strategic plans with

regard to our operations.

To the extent additional information arises, market conditions change or our strategies change, it is possible

that the conclusion regarding whether goodwill is impaired could change and result in future goodwill impairment charges that could have

a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Company has the option to assess goodwill for possible impairment by performing a qualitative analysis to determine if it is more likely

than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount or to perform the quantitative impairment test.

quantitative test involves comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its respective book value, including goodwill.

If the estimated fair value exceeds book value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired.

If, however, the fair value of the reporting

unit is less than book value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.

In 2021, we elected

to conduct a qualitative goodwill assessment and in 2020 we conducted a quantitative goodwill assessment.

In determining fair value,

we used various assumptions, including expectations of future cash flows based on projections or forecasts derived from analysis of business

prospects, economic or market trends and any regulatory changes that may occur.

We estimated the fair value of the reporting unit using

a net present value methodology, which is dependent on significant assumptions related to estimated future discounted cash flows, discount

rates and tax rates.

in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies .

review the recoverability of our long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets, when events or conditions occur that indicate

a possible impairment exists.

Determining whether impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including

determining which cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur,

their amount and the asset’s residual value, if any.

The assessment for recoverability is based primarily on our ability to recover

the carrying value of its long-lived and finite-lived assets from expected future undiscounted net cash flows.

If the total of expected

future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the total carrying value of the assets the asset is deemed not to be recoverable and

possibly impaired.

We then estimate the fair value of the asset to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

We determine revenue recognition by:

● identifying the contract, or

contracts, with the customer;

● identifying the performance

recognizing revenue when,

or as, we satisfy performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services.

recognize revenue in the amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for the services provided, sales of

physical products (e.g., DVDs and Blu-ray Discs) or when the content is available for subscription on the digital platform or available

on the point-of-sale for transactional and video on demand services which is when the control of the promised products and services is

transferred to our customers and our performance obligations under the contract have been satisfied.

Revenues that might be subject to

various taxes are recorded net of transaction taxes assessed by governmental authorities such as sales value-added taxes and other similar

terms and conditions vary by customer and typically provide net 30 to 90 day terms.

We do not adjust the promised amount of consideration

for the effects of a significant financing component when we expect, at contract inception, that the period between our transfer of a

promised product or service to our customer and payment for that product or service will be one year or less.

We have in the past entered

into arrangements in connection with activation fees due from our System deployments that had extended payment terms.

The outstanding

balances on these arrangements are insignificant and hence the impact of significant financing would be insignificant.

VPF revenue is recognized in the period in which

the digital title first plays on a System for general audience viewing in a digitally equipped movie theatre, as Phase I Deployment’s

II Deployment’s agreements with distributors require the payment of VPFs, according to a defined fee schedule, for ten years from

the date each system is installed;

however, Phase II Deployment may no longer collect VPFs once “cost recoupment,” as defined

in the contracts with movie studios and distributors, is achieved.

Cost recoupment will occur once the cumulative VPFs and other cash

receipts collected by Phase II Deployment have equaled the total of all cash outflows, including the purchase price of all Systems, all

financing costs, all “overhead and ongoing costs”, as defined, and including service fees, subject to maximum agreed upon

amounts during the three-year rollout period and thereafter.

Further, if cost recoupment occurs before the end of the eighth contract

year, the studios will pay us a one-time “cost recoupment bonus.” The Company evaluated the constraining estimates related

to the variable consideration, i.e., the one-time bonus and determined that it is not probable to conclude at this point in time that

a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration

who purchased and own Systems using their own financing in the Cinema Equipment Business paid us an upfront activation fee of approximately

$2.0 thousand per screen (the “Exhibitor-Buyer Structure”).

Upfront activation fees were recognized in the period in which

these Systems were delivered and ready for content, as we had no further obligations to the customer after that time and collection was

reasonably assured.

In addition, we recognize activation fee revenue of between $1.0 thousand and $2.0 thousand on Phase II Deployment

Systems and for Systems installed by CDF2 Holdings, a related party, (See Note 3 - Other Interests ) upon installation and such

which it earns an administrative fee equal to 10% of the VPFs collected.

Cinema Equipment Business earns an administrative fee of approximately 5% of VPFs collected and, in addition, earns an incentive service

fee equal to 2.5% of the VPFs earned by Phase 1 DC.

This administrative fee is related to the collection and remittance of the VPF’s

and the performance obligation is satisfied at that time the related VPF fees are due which is at the time the movies are displayed on

screens utilizing our Systems installed in movie theatres.

The service fees are recognized as a point in time revenue when the corresponding

VPF fees are due from the movie studios and distributors.

Principal Agent Considerations

We determine whether revenue should be reported

on a gross or net basis for each revenue stream based on the transfer of control of goods and services.

Key indicators that we use in

evaluating gross versus net treatment include, but are not limited to, the following:

● which party is primarily responsible

for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified good or service;

● which party has discretion

in establishing the price for the specified good or service.

and handling costs are incurred to move physical goods (e.g., DVDs and Blu-ray Discs) to customers.

We recognize all shipping and handling

costs as an expense in cost of goods sold because we are responsible for delivery of the product to our customers prior to transfer of

control to the customer.

maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable.

We review the composition of accounts receivable and analyze historical

bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate

the adequacy of these reserves.

Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.
