These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States (US) dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.

3 Accounting Policy

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the December 31, 2018 annual audited consolidated financial statements except as described below for new accounting standards adopted effective January 1, 2019.

New Accounting Standards Adopted During the Period

IFRS 16— Leases

The Company has adopted IFRS 16 —Leases (IFRS 16) with the date of initial application of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. In accordance with the transitional provisions in IFRS 16 comparative figures have not been restated, rather the reclassifications and adjustments arising from the adoption of this standard are recognized in the opening Statement of Financial Position on January 1, 2019. The impact of adoption of IFRS 16 is disclosed in Note 12.

The following policies are applicable from January 1, 2019. In the comparative period, leases were accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy for leases disclosed in the Company’s December 31, 2018 annual audited consolidated financial statements.

Policy applicable from January 1, 2019:

At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company assesses whether:

• the contract involves the use of an explicitly or implicitly identified asset;

• the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the contract term;

• the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements (Unaudited)

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

(expressed in US dollars, tabular amounts in thousands)

The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date of the lease, the date the underlying asset is available for use. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any re-measurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the initial amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, restoration costs, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentive received, if any.

Unless the Company is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment.

At the commencement date of the lease, the Company recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The lease payments include fixed payments, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees and the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company.

After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.

The Company presents right-of-use assets in the property and equipment line and lease liabilities in the lease liability line on the interim condensed statement of financial position.

Short-term leases and leases of low value assets

The Company has elected to use the practical expedient permitted by the standard and not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option or for leases related to low value assets. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low value assets are recognized as an expense in the interim condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Critical Judgements in determining the lease term

In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated).

4 Contingent consideration

The outstanding fair value of contingent consideration payable to ILJIN an affiliated shareholder and related party, is the result of an Arrangement Agreement (the Agreement) completed on September 20, 2013 between the Company, Aurinia Pharma Corp. and ILJIN. Pursuant to the Agreement, the remaining payments of up to $7,750,000 may be paid dependent on the achievement of pre-defined clinical and marketing milestones.

In the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 a pre-defined milestone for $100,000 was achieved and as result the Company recorded this amount in accounts payable and accrued liabilities with a corresponding reduction to the contingent consideration. This milestone combined with previous payments of $2,150,000 in 2017 has reduced the original contingent consideration from $10,000,000 to $7,750,000 at September 30, 2019.

At September 30, 2019, if all of the remaining milestones are met, the timing of these payments is estimated to occur as follows:

	$
2021	6,625
2022	500
2023	125
2024	500
	7,750

The fair value estimates at September 30, 2019 were based on a discount rate of 10% (December 31, 2018 - 10%) and a presumed payment range between 50% and 67.5% (December 31, 2018 - 50% and 74%). The fair value of this contingent consideration as at September 30, 2019 was estimated to be $4,135,000 (December 31, 2018 - $4,028,000). The increase reflected a $207,000 increase in the revaluation of the contingent consideration expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 offset by the $100,000 milestone achieved reclassified to accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements (Unaudited)

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

(expressed in US dollars, tabular amounts in thousands)

The change in expected timing of milestone payments and passage of time, on revaluation, resulted in an increase in contingent consideration of $127,000 and $207,000 respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to an increase in contingent consideration of $93,000 and $242,000 for the same periods in 2018.

This is a Level 3 recurring fair value measurement. If the probability for success were to increase by a factor of 10% for each milestone, this would increase the net present value (NPV) of the obligation by approximately $636,000 as at September 30, 2019. If the probability for success were to decrease by a factor of 10% for each milestone, this would decrease the NPV of the obligation by approximately $636,000 as at September 30, 2019. If the discount rate were to increase to 12%, this would decrease the NPV of the obligation by approximately $146,000. If the discount rate were to decrease to 8%, this would increase the NPV of the obligation by approximately $155,000.

5 Derivative warrant liabilities

In accordance with IFRS, a contract to issue a variable number of shares fails to meet the definition of equity and must instead be classified as a derivative liability and measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss at each period-end. The derivative liabilities will ultimately be converted into the Company’s equity (common shares) when the warrants are exercised, or will be extinguished on the expiry of the outstanding warrants, and will not result in the outlay of any cash by the Company. Immediately prior to exercise, the warrants are remeasured at their estimated fair value. Upon exercise, the intrinsic value is transferred to share capital (the intrinsic value is the share price at the date the warrant is exercised less the exercise price of the warrant) . Any remaining fair value is recorded through the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as part of the change in estimated fair value of derivative warrant liabilities.

Derivative warrant liability related to December 28, 2016 Bought Deal public offering

On December 28, 2016, the Company completed a $28,750,000 Bought Deal public offering (the Offering). Under the terms of the Offering, the Company issued 12,778,000 units at a subscription price per Unit of $2.25, each Unit consisting of one common share and one-half (0.50) of a common share purchase warrant (a Warrant), exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $3.00. The holders of the Warrants issued pursuant to this offering may elect, if the Company does not have an effective registration statement registering or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of the Warrant Shares to the holder, in lieu of exercising the Warrants for cash, a cashless exercise option to receive common shares equal to the fair value of the Warrants. The fair value is determined by multiplying the number of Warrants to be exercised by the weighted average market price less the exercise price with the difference divided by the weighted average market price. If a Warrant holder exercises this option, there will be variability in the number of shares issued per Warrant.

At initial recognition on December 28, 2016, the Company recorded a derivative warrant liability of $7,223,000 based on the estimated fair value of the Warrants.

Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Statements (Unaudited)

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

(expressed in US dollars, tabular amounts in thousands)

There were no derivative warrant exercises in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 for the December 28, 2016 derivate warrants.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate fair value. The Company considers expected volatility of its common shares in estimating its future stock price volatility. The risk-free interest rate for the life of the Warrants was based on the yield available on government benchmark bonds with an approximate equivalent remaining term at the time of issue. The life of warrant is based on the contractual term.

As at September 30, 2019, the Company revalued the remaining derivative warrants at an estimated fair value of $8,965,000 (December 31, 2018 – $15,475,000). The Company recorded a decrease in the estimated fair value of the derivative warrant liability of $4,512,000 and $6,510,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (September 30, 2018 - increase of $3,076,000 and $6,210,000).

The following assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the derivative warrant liability on September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

	September 30, 2019 $		December 31, 2018 $
Annualized volatility	33	%	55	%
Risk-free interest rate	1.61	%	2.45	%
Life of warrants in years	2.24		2.99
Dividend rate	0.0	%	0.0	%
Market price	5.34		6.82
Fair value per Warrant	2.54		4.39

These derivative warrant liabilities are Level 3 recurring fair value measurements. The key Level 3 inputs used by management to estimate the fair value are the market price and the expected volatility. If the market price were to increase by a factor of 10%, this would increase the estimated fair value of the obligation by approximately $1,761,000 as at September 30, 2019. If the market price were to decrease by a factor of 10%, this would decrease the estimated fair value of the obligation by approximately $1,711,000. If the volatility were to increase by 10%, this would increase the estimated fair value of the obligation by approximately $119,000. If the volatility were to decrease by 10%, this would decrease estimated fair value of the obligation by approximately $104,000 as at September 30, 2019.

Derivative warrant liability related to February 14, 2014 private placement offering

On February 14, 2014, the Company completed a $52,000,000 private placement. Under the terms of the Offering, the Company issued 18,919,404 units at a subscription price per Unit of $2.7485, each Unit consisting of one common share and one-quarter (0.25) of a common share purchase warrant (a Warrant), exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $3.2204. The holders of the Warrants issued pursuant to the February 14, 2014 private placement may elect, in lieu of exercising the Warrants for cash, a cashless exercise option to receive common shares equal to the fair value of the Warrants based on the number of Warrants to be exercised multiplied by a five-day weighted average market price less the exercise price with the difference divided by the weighted average market price. If a Warrant holder exercises this option, there will be variability in the number of shares issued per Warrant.

In the three month period ended March 31, 2019, the 1,738,000 derivative warrants outstanding at December 31, 2018 related to the February 14, 2014 private placement offering, were exercised. Certain holders of these Warrants elected the cashless exercise option and the Company issued 687,000 common shares on the cashless exercise of 1,274,000 Warrants. The remaining 464,000 warrants were exercised for cash, at a price of $3.2204 per common share and the Company received cash proceeds of $1,493,000 upon the issuance of 464,000 common shares. Pursuant to the exercise of these warrants, the Company transfered $5,920,000 from derivative warrant liabilities to equity (common shares) and recorded a net adjustment of $352,000 through the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Dr. Glickman and the Company entered into a transition agreement whereby upon his retirement as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company Dr. Glickman will continue to provide substantive services as an adviser, to the Company for a period of 12 months commencing May 6, 2019. Management applied judgment in assessing if the services to be provided are substantive. Unvested stock options at May 6, 2019 were modified such that they will vest in equal installments over the next 12 months, subject to Dr. Glickman remaining an adviser to the Company at each of the vesting dates.

The transition agreement resulted in 100,000 stock options that would have beenforfeitedat May 6, 2020 vesting on an accelerated timeline. Therefore, the Company considered that the amount expensed for such awards to date should be reversed. The Company recognized these 100,000 stock options as a new grant based on the fair value at the date of the transition agreement which will be expensed as they vest over the transition period. The Company also revised the allocation over the remaining vesting period to reflect the graded nature of the vesting over the transition period, at one twelfth per month.

(expressed in US dollars, tabular amounts in thousands)

Application of the fair value method resulted in charges to stock-based compensation expense of $2,022,000 and $5,586,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (2018 – $1,506,000 and $5,646,000) with corresponding credits to contributed surplus. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, stock compensation expense has been allocated to research and development expense in the amount of $596,000 and $2,207,000 respectively (2018 – $619,000 and $2,173,000) and corporate, administration and business development expense in the amount of $1,426,000 and $3,379,000 (2018 – $887,000 and $3,473,000).

If the stock price volatility was higher by a factor of 10% on the option grant dates in 2019, this would have increased annual stock compensation expense by approximately $266,000. If the stock price volatility was lower by a factor of 10% on the grant date, this would have decreased annual stock compensation expense by approximately $274,000.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options granted in 2019 and 2018.

The Company considers historical volatility of its common shares in estimating its future stock price volatility. The risk-free interest rate for the expected life of the options was based on the yield available on government benchmark bonds with an approximate equivalent remaining term at the time of the grant. The expected life is based upon the contractual term, taking into account expected employee exercise and expected post-vesting employment termination behavior.

The following weighted average assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

	September 30, 2019			September 30, 2018
Annualized volatility	52		%	55		%
Risk-free interest rate	1.61		%	2.04		%
Expected life of options in years	4.0 years			4.0 years
Estimated forfeiture rate	15.7		%	22.4		%
Dividend rate	0.0		%	0.0		%
Exercise price	$	6.16		$	5.28
Market price on date of grant	$	6.16		$	5.28
Fair value per common share option	$	2.57		$	2.33

8 Net loss per common share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In determining diluted net loss per common share, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted for stock options and warrants eligible for exercise where the average market price of common shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 exceeds the exercise price. Common shares that could potentially dilute basic net loss per common share in the future that could be issued from the exercise of stock options and warrants were not included in the computation of the diluted loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 because to do so would be anti-dilutive.

The numerator and denominator used in the calculation of historical basic and diluted net loss amounts per common share are as follows:

	Three months ended				Nine months ended
	September 30, 2019 $		September 30, 2018 $		September 30, 2019 $		September 30, 2018 $
Net loss for the period	(19,037	)	(18,342	)	(47,366	)	(49,527	)
	Number				Number
Weighted average common shares outstanding	92,169		85,321		91,368		84,579
	$		$		$		$
Net loss per common share (expressed in $ per share)	(0.21	)	(0.21	)	(0.52	)	(0.59	)

The outstanding number and type of securities that would potentially dilute basic loss per common share in the future and which were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share, because to do so would have reduced the loss per common share (anti-dilutive) for the periods presented, are as follows:

	Three months ended		Nine months ended

12 Leases

The Company adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective method with the date of initial application of January 1, 2019. Under this method, the standard is applied retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application. The Company also elected to use the practical expedients permitted by the standard for lease contracts that, at the commencement date, have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option and lease contracts for which

(expressed in US dollars, tabular amounts in thousands)

the underlying asset is of low value. The Company has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is, or contains a lease at the date of initial application.

On adoption the Company was required to analyze all current commitments and determine which agreements were within the scope of IFRS 16 Leases. The Company determined that its three facility agreements, previously classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17 Leases, were within the scope of the new standard.

For the lease of our head office facility in Victoria, British Columbia the Company recognized a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability as at January 15, 2019 at which time a modification to an existing, and almost expired, lease agreement was signed. The modification extended the lease term an additional 36 months rendering the practical expedient not applicable to the Victoria facility lease. The right-of-use asset was recognized based on the amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted for any related prepaid and accrued lease payments previously recognized. The lease liability was measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments and was discounted using the Company's estimated incremental borrowing rate as at January 15, 2019, over the term of the lease.

For the two other facility leases identified, the Company was able to apply a practical expedient permitted by the standard, which allowed the Company to account for operating leases with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less as at January 1, 2019 as short term leases. For the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2019, the Company incurred short-term lease expense of $16,000 and $47,000 and variable lease expense of $24,000 and $55,000 respectively.

A reconciliation of the operating lease commitments disclosed applying IAS 17 in the December 31, 2018 annual audited financial statements and the least liability recognized at the date of initial application of IFRS 16 is as follows:

	$
Operating lease commitments disclosed at December 31, 2018	800
Less: adjustment resulting from lease modification made in January 2019	(497	)
Less: operating costs not included in measurement of lease liability	(287	)
Less: short-term leases recognized on a straight-line basis as expense	(16	)
Lease liability recognized as at January 1, 2019	—

On January 15, 2019 the Company recognized a $425,000 right-of-use asset and a $425,000 lease liability. When measuring the lease liability, the Company discounted lease payments using its incremental borrowing rate at January 15, 2019. The incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liability on January 15, 2019 was 10%.

The change in accounting policy resulted in the following adjustments to the Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss:

	$
January 15, 2019 - Recognition of lease liability	425
Lease liability payments	(89	)
Interest expense	30

13 Subsequent Events

Subsequent to September 30, 2019, the Company issued 41,000 common shares upon the exercise of 41,000 stock options for proceeds of $126,000. The Company also granted 315,000 stock options to new employees at a weighted average exercise price of $4.75(CA $6.21) and 21,250 stock options were forfeited.
