Microrem Technologies Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018
(Expressed in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted)
 

1.

Reporting entity and nature of business

Microrem Technologies Inc. (“Microrem” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Microrem is a publicly traded company with its head office located at 121 Richmond Street West, Suite 304, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The Company’s common shares are currently listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the trading symbol “MRM” and on the Over the Counter Venture Market under the trading symbol “MMTIF”.

The Company develops, based upon proprietary technology, customized sensor applications for companies (referred to as “development partners”) operating internationally in various industry segments. The Company has not generated commercial revenues through January 31, 2019 and is devoting substantially all its efforts to securing commercial revenue opportunities.

2.

Going concern

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

There are material uncertainties related to conditions and events that cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and ultimately on the appropriateness of the use of the accounting principles applicable to a going concern. During the three months ended January 31, 2019, the Company reported a net loss and comprehensive loss of $1,110,303 (2018 - $2,291,691) and negative cash flow from operations of $327,981 (2018 - $287,299). The Company’s working capital deficiency as at January 31, 2019 was $4,488,643 (October 31, 2018 – $3,828,503).

The Company’s success depends on the profitable commercialization of its proprietary sensor technology. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in the profitable commercialization of its technology. Based upon its current operating and financial plans, management of the Company believes that it will have sufficient access to financial resources to fund the Company’s planned operations through fiscal 2019; however, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to secure additional financing and/or profitably commercialize its technology. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the statement of financial position classifications used; in such cases, these adjustments would be material.

3.

Basis of presentation

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim financial reporting. The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2018. The Company applied, as of November 1, 2018, International Financial Reporting Standard ("IFRS") 9 Financial instruments. As required by IAS 34, the nature and effect of those changes are disclosed in Note 4. The Company has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance and release by the Company’s Board of Directors on March 26, 2019.

(a)

Basis of presentation (continued)


(a)

Basis of consolidation (continued)

     

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries include:

     
(i)

Microrem Applied Sensors Technology Inc. (“MAST”) which was incorporated in November 2007 and is domiciled in Delaware, United States. MAST has the primary responsibility for the exploitation of the Company’s technologies in conjunction with various strategic partners and customers.

     
(ii)

7070179 Canada Inc. which was incorporated in October 2008 under the Canada Business Corporations Act in Ontario, Canada. The Company has assigned to this entity its rights, title and interests in certain patents, which it previously held, directly, in exchange for common shares of this entity.

     
(iii)

Matich International Inc. domiciled in the Bahamas; Matich International (USA) Inc. domiciled in Delaware, United States; Pageant Technologies (USA) Inc. domiciled in the United States; Pageant Technologies Inc. domiciled in Barbados; and Microrem Holdings (Barbados) Inc. domiciled in Barbados. All of these entities are inactive.

     
(b)

Basis of measurement

     

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or loss which are measured at their fair value.

     
(c)

Functional and presentation currency

     

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“USD”), which is the functional currency of the Company and all of its subsidiaries.

     
(d)

Use of estimates and judgments

     

The preparation of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are reviewed periodically and adjustments are made as appropriate in the reporting period they become known. Items for which actual results may differ materially from these estimates are described in the following section.


  (I)

Fair value of options and conversion features

   

The Company makes estimates and utilizes assumptions in determining the fair value for stock options and derivative liabilities based on the application of the Black-Scholes option pricing model or the binomial option pricing model, depending on the circumstances. These pricing models require management to make various assumptions and estimates that are susceptible to uncertainty, including the volatility of the share price, expected dividend yield, expected term, expected risk- free interest rate, and exercise price in the binomial option pricing model.

   

  (ii)

Useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets

   

Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment and patents. Amortization is dependent upon estimates of useful lives and impairment is dependent upon estimates of recoverable amounts. These are determined through the exercise of judgment and are dependent upon estimates that take into account factors such as economic and market conditions, frequency of use, anticipated changes in laws, and technological improvements.

   

 

  (iii)

Income taxes

   

Income taxes and tax exposures recognized in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect management's best estimate of the outcome based on facts known at the reporting date. When the Company anticipates a future income tax payment based on its estimates, it recognizes a liability. The difference between the expected amount and the final tax outcome has an impact on current and deferred taxes when the Company becomes aware of this difference.

Basis of presentation (continued)


(d)

Use of estimates and judgments (continued)

     
(iii)

Income taxes (continued)

     

In addition, when the Company incurs losses for income tax purposes, it assesses the probability of taxable income being available in the future based on its budgeted forecasts. These forecasts are adjusted to take into account certain non-taxable income and expenses and specific rules on the use of unused credits and tax losses. When the forecasts indicate that sufficient future taxable income will be available to deduct the temporary differences, a deferred tax asset is recognized for all deductible temporary differences.

     
(iv)

Going concern assumption

     

The Company applies judgment in assessing whether material uncertainties exist that would cause doubt as to the whether the Company could continue as a going concern.

     
(v)

Expected credit losses on financial assets

     

Determining an allowance for expected credit losses ("ECLs") for all debt financial assets not held at fair value through profit or loss requires management to make assumptions about the historical patterns for the probability of default, the timing of collection and the amount of incurred credit losses, which are adjusted based on management’s judgment about whether economic conditions and credit terms are such that actual losses may be higher or lower than what the historical patterns suggest.


4.

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements


(a)

Amendments to IFRS 2 Share-based payments

   

IFRS 2 clarifies how to account for certain types of share-based payment transactions. The amendments provide requirements on the accounting for the effects of vesting and non-vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, share- based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, and a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equity-settled. The effective date of these amendments is for annual periods beginning January 1, 2018. The Company has adopted these amendments as of the effective date and has assessed no significant changes as a result of the adoption of these amendments.

   
(b)

IFRS 9 Financial instruments

   

IFRS 9 addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories: amortized cost, and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments and such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"). The effective date of this standard is for annual periods beginning January 1, 2018. The Company has adopted this new standard as of its effective date on a retrospective basis with the exception of financial assets that were derecognized at the date of initial application, November 1, 2018. There was no significant impact on the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as a result of the adoption of this new standard. The new classification and measurement of the Company's financial assets are as follows:


  (I) Amortized cost
     

This category includes financial assets that are held within a business model with the objective to hold the financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that meet the solely principal and interest ("SPPI") criterion. Financial assets classified in this category are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

   

  (ii)

Fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL")

   

This category includes derivative instruments as well as quoted equity instruments which the Company has not irrevocably elected, at initial recognition or transition, to classify at FVOCI. This category would also include debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics fail the SPPI criterion or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell. Financial assets in this category are recorded at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss.

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements (continued)


(b)

IFRS 9 Financial instruments (continued)

     
(iii)

Impairment of financial assets

     

Critical to the determination of ECLs is the definition of default and the definition of a significant increase in credit risk. The definition of default is used in measuring the amount of ECLs and in the determination of whether the loss allowance is based on a 12-month or lifetime ECLs. The Company considers the following as constituting an event of default: the borrower is past due more than 90 days on any material credit obligation, or the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full. The Company monitors all financial assets that are subject to the impairment requirements to assess whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. If there has been a significant increase in credit risk, the Company will measure the loss allowance based on lifetime rather than 12-month ECLs. In assessing whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial asset at the reporting date based on the remaining maturity of the instrument with the risk of a default occurring that was anticipated for the remaining maturity at the current reporting date when the financial asset was first recognized.

The assessment of the Company's business models was made as of the date of initial application, November 1, 2018, and then applied retrospectively to those financial instruments that were not derecognized before November 1, 2018. There was no adjustment to opening accumulated deficit resulting from the retrospective application of IFRS 9 to these financial instruments.

5.

New and revised standards and interpretations issued but not yet effective


(a)

IFRS 16 Leases

   

IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and replaces the previous guidance on leases. This standard provides a single recognition and measurement model to be applied by lessees to leases, with required recognition of assets and liabilities for most leases. This standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted if the Company is also applying IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new standard on its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

   
(b)

IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over income tax treatments

   

IFRIC 23 clarifies the application of recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12, Income Taxes, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. It specifically addresses whether an entity considers each tax treatment independently or collectively, the assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities, how an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, and how an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances. IFRIC 23 will be effective for the annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted. The Company will adopt this interpretation as of its effective date. The Company has performed a preliminary analysis and has not assessed any significant impacts as a result of the adoption of this standard.

Loss per share

Basic and diluted loss per share are calculated using the following numerators and denominators:

    Three months ended January 31,  
Numerator   2019     2018  
Loss attributable to common shareholders $  (1,110,303 ) $  (2,291,691 )
Loss used in computation of basic and diluted loss per share $  (1,110,303 ) $  (2,291,691 )
             
Denominator            
Weighted average number of common shares for computation of basic and diluted loss per share   267,841,754     229,201,276  

For the three months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, all stock options and conversion features were anti-dilutive and, therefore, are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.

12.

Income taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes.

As at January 31, 2019, the Company has non-capital losses of approximately $29.1 million, $24.3 million in Canada and $4.8 million in other foreign jurisdictions, available to reduce future taxable income. Non-capital losses expire commencing in 2026. In addition, the Company has available capital loss carry forwards of approximately $1.3 million to reduce future taxable capital gains. Capital losses carry forward indefinitely.

As at January 31, 2019 and October 31, 2018, the Company assessed that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to use deferred income tax assets based on operating losses in prior years; therefore, there are no balances carried in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position for such assets.

Contingencies


(a)

The Company has agreed to indemnify its directors and officers and certain of its employees in accordance with the Company’s by- laws. The Company maintains insurance policies that may provide coverage against certain claims.

   
(b)

On October 7, 2018, the former President of MAST, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary), Mr. Steven Van Fleet, filed a lawsuit against Microrem and MAST in New York State Supreme Court, Duchess County. In the action, Mr. Van Fleet is seeking payment of $214,574 plus interest relating to alleged remuneration and expense reimbursements due to him prior to his resignation as an officer and director of Microrem and MAST on August 17, 2018. The Company answered the complaint on December 7, 2018 by denying the material allegations in Mr. Van Fleet’s claims. In addition, the Company interposed 7 counterclaims against Mr. Van Fleet seeking, among other things: (I) damages of not less than $2.75 million, (ii) specific performance to compel Mr. Van Fleet to comply with his contractual obligations which were required for the period of time that he served as an officer and director through to his resignation date; (iii) repayment of certain salary and expenses paid to Mr. Van Fleet; (iv) a direction for Mr. Van Fleet to turn over all Company property in his possession or control; (v) an accounting to determine all money and property belonging to the Company and/or MAST. On January 24, 2019, the Company amended its original answer and counterclaims to include, among other things, a demand for additional damages based on new information that has come to light. On February 8, 2019 Mr. Van Fleet, through his counsel, replied to and denied the material allegations in Microrem's counterclaims. The Company reports an accrual of $205,788 at January 31, 2019 with respect to alleged remuneration and expense reimbursements claimed by Mr. Van Fleet but, nonetheless, has denied the allegations in Mr. Van Fleet’s claims. This matter remains as a contingency at March 26, 2019.

Financial risk management


(a)

Currency risk

   

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of, or future cash flows from, the Company's financial instruments will significantly fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that it incurs expenses and issues convertible debentures denominated in Canadian dollars. The Company manages currency risk by monitoring the Canadian position of these monetary financial instruments on a periodic basis throughout the course of the reporting period.

   

As at January 31, 2019, balances that are denominated in Canadian dollars are as follows:


    CDN  
Cash $  96,259  
Prepaid expenses and other receivables $  37,080  
Convertible debentures $  1,991,940  
Trade payables and other liabilities $  292,218  
Derivative liabilities $  622,438  

A 10% strengthening of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar would increase accumulated deficit by $190,736 as at January 31, 2019 (October 31, 2018 - increase accumulated deficit by $158,836). A 10% weakening of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar would have had the opposite effect of the same magnitude.

   
(b)

Interest rate risk

   

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of, or future cash flows from, the Company's financial instruments will significantly fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its interest-bearing convertible debentures. This exposure is limited due to the short-term nature of the convertible debentures.

   
(c)

Liquidity risk

   

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company's policy is to review liquidity resources and ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet financial obligations as they become due. Further, the Company's management is responsible for ensuring funds exist and are readily accessible to support business opportunities as they arise. The Company's funding is provided in the form of capital raised through the issuance of shares on conversion of convertible debentures. All financial liabilities are due within 1 year as at January 31, 2019.

Credit risk

     

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s cash, development costs receivable, and other receivables. The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of these financial assets, which amounted to $78,056 as at January 31, 2019 (October 31, 2018 - $294,034). The Company reduces its credit risk by assessing the credit quality of counterparties, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors.

Fair value hierarchy

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. There are no assets or liabilities in this category in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. In these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, derivative liabilities are included in this category.

Level 3 - valuation techniques using the inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data. There are no assets or liabilities in this category in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

The Company's policy for determining when transfers between levels of fair value hierarchy occur is based on the date of the event or changes in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the three months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no transfers between levels.

Capital risk management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to (I) maintain its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, (ii) ensure it has sufficient cash resources to further develop and market its technologies and (iii) maintain its ongoing operations. The Company defines its capital as its net assets, total assets less total liabilities. In order to secure the additional capital necessary to pursue these objectives, the Company may attempt to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity and warrants or by securing strategic partners. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and there has been no change with respect to the overall capital risk management strategy during the three months ended January 31, 2019.
