Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the Six Months Ended November 30, 2018

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN

 

NexTech AR Solutions Corp. (the “Company” or “NexTech”) was incorporated in the province of British Columbia on January 12, 2018. The Company’s principal business activities are the acquisition and development of augmented reality technology for purpose of generating advertising revenue and sale of its Applications (“Apps”). The Company’s registered office is located at 501 – 543 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1X8.

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to generate advertising revenue to establish profitable operations and to obtain the necessary equity or debt financing to fund operations as required. These factors indicate the existence of uncertainty on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2.BASIS OF PREPARATION

 

Basis of Measurement and Presentation

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the same accounting policies and methods of application as the most recent audited financial statements for the period ended May 31, 2018, except that they do not include all the information required for the annual audited financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the period ended May 31, 2018.

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

On October 3, 2018, the Company incorporated NexTech AR Solutions USA LLC in the state of Delaware, USA (“NexTech USA”). NexTech USA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of NexTech. Management has determined that the functional currency of NexTech USA is the US dollar.

 

Accounting pronouncements not yet effective

 

The following standard has been issued by the IASB and has not yet been adopted by the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

2.BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

 

IFRS 16 Leases was issued in January 2016 (effective for NexTech on June 1, 2019) and provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard on its financial statements.

6.CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

 

On February 12, 2018, the Company issued convertible debentures (the "Debentures") for proceeds of $250,000. The debentures are unsecured, non-interest bearing and mature twelve months from the date of issue. The debenture holders are entitled at their sole discretion to convert the unpaid principal balance into common shares at a conversion rate of $0.05 per share and will convert automatically and without further action of the holders immediately prior to the Company completing a going public transaction or the listing of its shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange. The debenture holders were also issued a total of 5,000,000 warrants, which have an exercise price of $0.05 per share and which expire on February 11, 2019. These convertible debentures are accounted for according to the substance of the transaction and include both a liability component and an equity component. The initial liability component of $205,676 was calculated at the present value of interest payments and expected return of capital at a rate of 20% representing the interest rate that would have been charged for a nonconvertible debenture. The equity component of $44,324 was measured based on the residual value of the instrument taken as a whole after deducting the amount determined separately for the liability component. On October 31, 2018, NexTech began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange. This event triggered the automatic conversion of the convertible debentures into 5,000,000 shares.

 

The following table summarizes the continuity of the liability components of the Company’s convertible debentures:

 

As at May 31, 2018  $218,024

9.FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

 

Financial Risk Management

 

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, which include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, and interest rate risk.

 

Credit Risk

 

Credit risk arises from cash as well as credit exposures to counterparties of outstanding receivables and committed transactions. There is no significant concentration of credit risk other than cash deposits and receivables. The Company’s cash deposits are primarily held with a Canadian chartered bank and receivables are due from the distributor of the Company’s Apps.

 

Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient cash resources to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company’s main source of cash resources is through equity financings and from convertible debentures. The Company’s financial obligations are limited to its current liabilities which have contractual maturities of less than one year. The Company manages liquidity risk as part of its overall “Management of Capital” as described below.

9.FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

 

Currency Risk

 

The Company is exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Canada and a portion of the Company’s expenses are incurred in U.S. dollars (“USD”). A significant change in the currency exchange rates between the Canadian dollar relative to the USD could affect the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations. As at November 30, 2018 the Company is exposed to currency risk through cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable denominated in USD with a net asset amount of US$325,000.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

As at November 30, 2018 the Company did not have any interest-bearing loans or interest-bearing investments. Accordingly, the Company does not have significant interest rate risk.

 

Management of Capital

 

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to pursue the development of its technologies. The Company relies mainly on equity issuances to raise new capital. In the management of capital, the Company includes the components of equity. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its cash in savings accounts or highly liquid short-term deposits with terms of one year or less and which can be liquidated after thirty days without penalty. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. Management believes that the Company may have to raise additional capital to sustain its operations for the next twelve months.

 

10.FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS BY CATEGORY

 

Fair Values

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value with subsequent measurement depending on classification as described below. Classification of financial instruments depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were acquired or issued, their characteristics, and the Company’s designation of such instruments. As at November 30, 2018, the Company’s financial instruments were classified as amortized at cost. The carrying values of cash, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

11.SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO CASH FLOWS

 

For the six months ended November 30, 2018, the Company recorded $120,000 of consulting fees related to the release of 480,000 common shares from escrow, with the offsetting amount credited to share capital (Note 7). On October 31, 2018 the Company issued 5,000,000 common shares upon the conversion of the convertible debentures.

 

During the period ended November 30, 2018, no cash was paid for income taxes or interest.
