INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF KELSO TECHNOLOGIES INC.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Kelso Technologies Inc., which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2013, four months ended December 31, 2012, and years ended August 31, 2012 and 2011, and changes in equity for the year ended December 31, 2013, four months ended December 31, 2012 and year ended August 31, 2012, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Kelso Technologies Inc. as at December 31, 2013 and 2012, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2013, four months ended December 31, 2012, and years ended August 31, 2012 and 2011, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

     

Kelso Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) designs, engineers, markets, produces and distributes various proprietary pressure relief valves and manway securement systems designed to reduce the risk of environmental harm due to non-accidental events in the transportation of hazardous commodities via railroad tank cars. The Company trades on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) under the symbol “KLS”, and the US over-the-counter market (“OTCQX”) under the symbol “KEOSF”. The Company’s head office is located at 7773 118A Street, Delta, British Columbia, V4C 6V1.

     

Effective December 31, 2012, the Company changed its fiscal year-end to December 31.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

     
(a)

Statement of compliance

     

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

     

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as available-for-sale (“AFS”) and fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

     
(b)

Basis of presentation and consolidation

     

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its integrated wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kelso Technologies (USA) Inc. and Kelso Innovative Solutions Inc.; both are Nevada, USA, corporations. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

     
(c)

Functional and presentation currency

     

The functional and presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the US dollar (“USD”).

     
(d)

Significant management judgment and estimation uncertainty

     

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Company’s management to undertake a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. Actual amounts may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions. The Company reviews its estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and may impact future periods.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

     
(d)

Significant management judgment and estimation uncertainty (Continued)

     

Significant management judgments

     

The following are significant management judgments in applying the accounting policies of the Company that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses:


  (i)

Recognition of deferred tax assets

     
 

The extent to which deferred tax assets can be recognized is based on an assessment of the probability of the Company’s future taxable income against which the deferred tax assets can be utilized. In addition, significant judgment is required in assessing the impact of any legal or economic limits or uncertainties in various tax jurisdictions.

     
  (ii)

Functional currency

     
 

The functional currency for the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The Company has determined the functional currency of its subsidiary is the USD. Determination of functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment and the Company reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions that determined the primary economic environment.

Estimation uncertainty

Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual results may be substantially different.

  (i)

Impairment of long-lived assets

     
 

In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash generating unit based on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate. To date, the Company has not recognized any impairment losses of long-lived assets.

     
  (ii)

Useful lives of depreciable assets

     
 

The Company reviews its estimate of the useful lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date, based on the expected utilization of the assets. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to technical obsolescence that may change the utilization of certain intangible assets and equipment.

Significant management judgment and estimation uncertainty (Continued)

     

Estimation uncertainty (Continued)


  (iii)

Inventories

     
 

The Company estimates the net realizable values of inventories, taking into account the most reliable evidence available at each reporting date. The future realization of these inventories may be affected by future technology or other market-driven changes that may reduce future selling prices. A change to these assumptions could impact the Company’s inventory valuation and impact gross margins.

     
  (iv)

Share-based payments

     
 

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled share-based transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model, including the expected life of the stock option, volatility and dividend yield, and assumptions.

     
  (v)

Allowance account for credit losses

     
 

The Company provides for bad debt by analyzing the historical default experience and current information available about customer’s credit worthiness on an account by account basis. Uncertainty relates to the actual collectivity of customer balances that can vary from the Company’s estimation.


 

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

     
  (e)

Approval of the consolidated financial statements

     
 

The consolidated financial statements of Kelso Technologies Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2013 were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March 28, 2014.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

     
(f)

New accounting standards issued but not yet effective

     

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (2009)

     

IFRS 9 introduces new requirements for classifying and measuring financial assets, as follows:


 

Debt instruments meeting both a “business model” test and a “cash flow characteristics” test are measured at amortized cost (the use of fair value is optional in some limited circumstances)

 

Investments in equity instruments can be designated as “fair value through other comprehensive income” with only dividends being recognized in profit or loss

 

All other instruments (including all derivatives) are measured at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss

 

The concept of “embedded derivatives” does not apply to financial assets within the scope of the standard and the entire instrument must be classified and measured in accordance with the above guidelines.

The IASB has indefinitely postponed the mandatory adoption date of this standard.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (2010)

This is a revised version incorporating revised requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities, and carrying over the existing de-recognition requirements from IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.

The revised financial liability provisions maintain the existing amortized cost measurement basis for most liabilities. New requirements apply where an entity chooses to measure a liability at fair value through profit or loss; in these cases, the portion of the change in fair value related to changes in the entity's own credit risk is presented in other comprehensive income rather than within profit or loss.

The IASB has indefinitely postponed the mandatory adoption date of this standard.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (Hedge Accounting and amendments to IFRS 9, IFRS 7 and IAS 39) (2013)

     

A revised version of IFRS 9 which:


 

Introduces a new chapter to IFRS 9 on hedge accounting, putting in place a new hedge accounting model that is designed to be more closely aligned with how entities undertake risk management activities when hedging financial and non-financial risk exposures

 

Permits an entity to apply only the requirements introduced in IFRS 9 (2010) for the presentation of gains and losses on financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss without applying the other requirements of IFRS 9, meaning the portion of the change in fair value related to changes in the entity's own credit risk can be presented in other comprehensive income rather than within profit or loss

 

Removes the mandatory effective date of IFRS 9 (2010) and IFRS 9 (2009), leaving the effective date open pending the finalization of the impairment and classification and measurement requirements. Notwithstanding the removal of an effective date, each standard remains available for application.

This standard has no stated effective date.

Investment Entities (Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27)

Amends IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities and IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements to:

 

provide “investment entities” (as defined) an exemption from the consolidation of particular subsidiaries and instead require that an investment entity measure the investment in each eligible subsidiary at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments or IAS 39

 

require additional disclosure about why the entity is considered an investment entity, details of the entity's unconsolidated subsidiaries, and the nature of relationship and certain transactions between the investment entity and its subsidiaries

 

require an investment entity to account for its investment in a relevant subsidiary in the same way in its consolidated and separate financial statements (or to only provide separate financial statements if all subsidiaries are unconsolidated).

Applicable to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.

Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets (Amendments to IAS 36)

Amends IAS 36 Impairment of Assets to reduce the circumstances in which the recoverable amount of assets or cash-generating units is required to be disclosed, clarify the disclosures required, and to introduce an explicit requirement to disclose the discount rate used in determining impairment (or reversals) where recoverable amount (based on fair value less costs of disposal) is determined using a present value technique.

Applicable to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies.

     
(a)

Cash equivalents

     

Cash equivalents include short-term liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less, are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant changes in value.

     
(b)

Inventory

     

Inventory components include raw materials and supplies used to assemble valves and manway covers, as well as finished valves and manway covers. All inventories are recorded at the lower of cost and net realizable value on a weighted average basis. The stated value of all inventories includes raw materials and supplies purchase and assembly costs, and attributable overhead and amortization. A regular review is undertaken to determine the extent of any provision for obsolescence.

     
(c)

Intangible assets

     

The Company’s intangible assets include manway patents and eduction tube line rights with a finite useful life. The patents are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their thirteen-year protective term. The rights are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over their two-year useful life. Intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis or when events occur that may indicate impairment. If any such indications of impairment exist, the Company will estimate the recoverable amount of the asset and record any impairment on the carrying amount to profit or loss in the period.

     
(d)

Property and equipment

     

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Amortization is calculated over the estimated useful life of the property and equipment on a declining- balance basis at the following rates:


Building –   4%
Leasehold improvements – 20%
Production equipment – 20%
Vehicles – 30%

  (e)

Research and development

     
 

Research costs are expensed as incurred. Product and technology development costs, which meet the criteria for deferral and are expected to provide future benefits with reasonable certainty are deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the products or technology. In 2011, the Company commenced deferring development costs associated with the manway securement systems. In the year of deferral of product costs, the Company does not record amortization.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

     
(f)

Revenue recognition

     

Revenues are recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer based on the terms of the sale, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Risks and rewards of ownership pass to the customer upon shipment. Provisions for sales discounts, returns and miscellaneous claims from customers are made at the time of sale.

     
(g)

Income taxes

     

Income tax expense, consisting of current and deferred tax expense, is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period-end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regard to previous years.

     

Deferred tax assets and liabilities and the related deferred income tax expense or recovery are recognized for deferred tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income (loss) in the period that substantive enactment occurs.

     

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that a deferred tax asset will be recovered, the deferred tax asset is reduced. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

     
(h)

Foreign currency translation

     

The accounts of foreign operations are translated into USD as follows:


  (i)

Monetary assets and liabilities, at the rate of exchange in effect at the consolidated statement of financial position date;

     
  (ii)

Non-monetary assets and liabilities, at the exchange rates prevailing at the time of the acquisition of the assets or assumption of the liabilities; and

     
  (iii)

Revenue and expense items (excluding amortization, which is translated at the same rate as the related asset), at the rate of exchange prevailing at the transaction date.

Gains and losses arising from translation of foreign currency are included in the determination of net income.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

     
(i)

Earnings (loss) per share

     

The Company presents basic earnings (loss) per share data for its common shares, calculated by dividing the earnings/loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The Company uses the treasury stock method for calculating diluted earnings (loss) per share. Under this method the dilutive effect on earnings per share is calculated on the use of the proceeds that could be obtained upon exercise of options, warrants and similar instruments. It assumes that the proceeds of such exercise would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. However, the calculation of diluted loss per share excludes the effects of various conversions and exercise of options and warrants that would be anti-dilutive.

     
(j)

Share-based payments

     

The Company grants share options to acquire common shares of the Company to directors, officers, employees and consultants. The fair value of share-based payments to employees is measured at grant date, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and is recognized over the vesting period for employees using the graded vesting method. Fair value of share-based payments for non-employees is recognized and measured at the date the goods or services are received based on the fair value of the goods or services received. If it is determined that the fair value of goods and services received cannot be reliably measured, the share-based payment is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

     

For both employees and non-employees, the fair value of share-based payments is recognized as an expense with a corresponding increase in share-based payments reserve. The amount recognized as expense is adjusted to reflect the number of share options expected to vest. Consideration received on the exercise of stock options is recorded in capital stock and the related share-based payment in share-based payments reserve is transferred to capital stock.

     
(k)

Capital stock

     

Proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants are recorded as capital stock in the amount for which the option or warrant enabled the holder to purchase a share in the Company. Any previously recorded share-based payment included in the share-based payments reserve is transferred to capital stock on exercise of options. Capital stock issued for non-monetary consideration is valued at the closing market price at the date of issuance. The proceeds from the issuance of units are allocated between common shares and warrants based on the residual value method. Under this method, the proceeds are allocated first to capital stock based on the fair value of the common shares at the time the units are priced and any residual value is allocated to the warrants reserve. Consideration received for the exercise of warrants is recorded in capital stock, and any related amount recorded in warrants reserve is transferred to capital stock.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


  (l)

Financial instruments

       
  (i)

Financial assets

       
 

The Company classifies its financial assets into one of the following categories, depending on the purpose for which the asset was acquired. The Company’s accounting policy for each category is as follows:

       
 

Fair value through profit or loss

       
 

This category comprises derivatives, or assets acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing it in the near term. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through profit or loss.

       
 

Loans and receivables

       
 

These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are carried at cost less any provision for impairment. Individually significant receivables are considered for impairment when they are past due or when other objective evidence is received that a specific counterparty will default.

       
 

Held-to-maturity investments

       
 

These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. These assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired, determined by reference to external credit ratings and other relevant indicators, the financial asset is measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows. Any changes to the carrying amount of the investment, including impairment losses, are recognized through profit or loss.

       
 

Available-for-sale

       
 

Non-derivative financial assets not included in the above categories are classified as available-for-sale. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized directly in equity. Where a decline in the fair value of an available-for- sale financial asset constitutes objective evidence of impairment, the amount of the loss is removed from equity and recognized through profit or loss.

       
 

All financial assets, except for those at fair value through profit or loss, are subject to review for impairment at least at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied for each category of financial assets, which are described above.

Financial instruments (Continued)

       
  (ii)

Financial liabilities

       
 

The Company classifies its financial liabilities in the following categories: as FVTPL or other financial liabilities.

       
 

Fair value through profit or loss

       
 

Financial liabilities classified as FVTPL include financial liabilities held-for-trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL. Fair value changes on financial liabilities classified as FVTPL are recognized in profit or loss.

       
 

Other financial liabilities

       
 

Other financial liabilities are non-derivatives and are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and are subsequently stated at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Any difference between the amounts originally received, net of transaction costs, and the redemption value is recognized in profit or loss over the period to maturity using the effective interest method. Other financial liabilities are classified as current or non-current based on their maturity date.

       
 

Other financial liabilities are classified as current or non-current based on their maturity date.

       
  (iii)

Fair value hierarchy

       
 

Fair value measurements of financial instruments are required to be classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:


Level 1:

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

     
Level 2:

Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

     
Level 3:

Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data.


4.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

   

The Company considers its capital to be comprised of shareholders’ equity.

   

The Company’s objectives in managing its capital are to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern and to further develop its business. To effectively manage the Company’s capital requirements, the Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to meet its strategic goals.

4.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT (Continued)

   

In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions. Management reviews the capital structure on a regular basis to ensure the above objectives are met. There have been no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the year. There are no externally-imposed restrictions on the Company’s capital.

   
5.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

   

Financial instruments are agreements between two parties that result in promises to pay or receive cash or equity instruments. The Company classifies its financial instruments as follows: cash is classified as a financial asset at FVTPL, accounts receivable is classified as loans and receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost. The carrying value of these instruments approximates their fair values due to their short term to maturity.

   

The Company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:


  Credit risk;
  Liquidity risk; and
  Market risk.

  (a)

Credit risk

     
 

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Cash and cash equivalents are placed with major Canadian and US financial institutions and the Company’s concentration of credit risk for cash and cash equivalents and maximum exposure thereto is $4,462,531 (2012 - $1,421,053).

     
 

With respect to its accounts receivable, the Company assesses the credit rating of all customers and maintains provisions for potential credit losses, and any such losses to date have been within management’s expectations. The Company’s credit risk with respect to accounts receivable and maximum exposure thereto is $1,259,340 (2012 - $1,055,778). The Company’s concentration of credit risk for accounts receivable with respect to Customer A is $342,650 (2012 - $465,802), while Customer B is $638,777 (2012 - $309,795) (note 16).

     
  (b)

Liquidity risk

     
 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquid funds to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. At December 31, 2013, the Company has $4,462,531 (2012 - $1,421,053) of cash and cash equivalents to settle current liabilities of $486,147 with the following due dates: trade accounts payable of $201,300 (2012 - $270,795) are due within three months; management bonus payable of $269,434 (2012 - $Nil) are due within five and one half months and; due to related party balance of $15,413 (2012 - $12,247) is due on demand.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

       
(c)

Market risk

       

The significant market risks to which the Company is exposed are interest rate risk and currency risk.

       
(i)

Interest rate risk

       

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in bank accounts and short-term liquid investments that earn interest at variable rates. Due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments, fluctuations in market rates of interest do not have a significant impact on the estimated fair value or future cash flows.

       
(ii)

Currency risk

       

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent expenditures incurred or funds received and balances maintained by the Company are denominated in Canadian dollars (“CAD”). The Company does not manage currency risk through hedging or other currency management tools.

       

As at December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s net exposure to foreign currency risk is as follows (in USD):


      December 31,     December 31,  
      2013     2012  
               
  Net assets $  3,319,501   $  824,251  

 

Based on the above, assuming all other variables remain constant, an 10% weakening or strengthening of the USD against the CAD would result in approximately $330,000 (2012 - $13,000) foreign exchange loss or gain in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

     
  (iii)

Other price risk

     
 

Other price risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk. The Company is not exposed to other price risk.

  Estimated forfeitures 0.00% 0.00% 0.00%
  Grant date fair value per option $ 0.85 $ 0.54 $ 0.39

Option pricing models require the use of highly subjective estimates and assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Changes in the underlying assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates.
