Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

for the three-month ended March 31, 2020 and 2019
(In Canadian dollars)

(Unaudited)

1 - GOVERNING STATUTES, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GENERAL INFORMATION (cont'd)

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (the ''consolidated interim financial statements'') are in compliance with the International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (''IAS 34''). Since they are condensed financial statements, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (''IFRS'') as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (''IASB''), have been voluntarily omitted or summarized.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements have been set out in note 5 of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. There has not been any significant change in judgments, estimates or assumptions since then. These consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The consolidated interim financial statements were prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those used in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The interim consolidated financial statements for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 (including comparative figures) were approved by the Board of Directors on June 29, 2020.

2 - GOING CONCERN ASSESSMENT

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the going concern assumption meaning the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.

The level of revenue currently being generated is not presently sufficient to meet the working capital requirements. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional financing. Even if the Company has been successful in the past in doing so, there is no assurance that it will manage to obtain additional financing in the future. Also, the Company incurred a net loss of $805,695 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 ($568,779 for 2019), it has an accumulated deficit of $24,516,684 as at March 31, 2020 ($23,623,950 as at December 31, 2019) and it has not yet generated positive cash flows from operations on a regular basis. Until that happens, the company will continue to assess its working capital needs and undertake whatever initiative it deems necessary to ensure that it continues to be in a position to meet its financial obligations. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments or disclosures that may be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern. If this were the case, these adjustments could be material.

3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3.1 New Standards adopted as at January 1, 2020

Some accounting pronouncements which have become effective from January 1, 2020, and have therefore been adopted do not have a significant impact on the Company financial results or position.

4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited interim consolidated statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted by the Company most recent audited statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

5 - BUSINESS COMBINATION

On January 1, 2019, the Company through its subsidiary called Asia Synergy Credit Solutions ("ASCS") transferred certain assets and personnel from Wuxi Wenyi Financial Services Co.. Wenyi offers turn-key credit outsourcing services to banks and other lending institutions in China. The asset transfer was made to enhance the Company position in the commercial lending market in China. The assets acquired are intangible assets consisting of loan-servicing agreements. The assets acquired were determined to constitute a business combination and, accordingly, the acquisition will be accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting.

The maximum purchase price for this acquisition was estimated at $2,000,000, and the fair value of the consideration transferred at $489,000. The purchase price will be settled with the issuance of a maximum of 20,000,000 shares of the Company if certain financial performance of ASCS is achieved during the first 18 months of operations. In the event that 20,000,000 shares are issued after the 18-month period and the listed common shared price of the Company is less than $0.10 at that time, the Company will issue additional shares to obtain an aggregate consideration value of $2,000,000.

The fair value of the consideration transferred was estimated at $489,000, based on management financial projection of ASCS over the first 18 months of operations. The Company used a probability-weighted estimate to determined the number of shares to be issued based on certain financial performance targets. The number of shares estimated to be issued represents management estimate of an 80% probability that the financial performance will be achieved.

The market price ($0.03) at which the share will be issued used in the model was estimated using the average historical price from the 6 months prior to the acquisition and the historical volatility over the payment term. The payment where then discounted using the Chinese risk-free rate (4.8%). The Company consider that the risk of the projection being realized was already taken into account through the probability-weighted estimated result.

Fair value of consideration transferred      
Issuance between 14,000,000 and 17,000,000 shares of the Company at a market price ranging from $0.03 to $0.06   489,000

5 - BUSINESS COMBINATION (cont'd)

As at December 31, 2019, the Company revised its estimation of the fair value of the contingent compensation. The re-evaluation process performed after the first year of operations of ASCS indicates that the financial performance criteria were achieved at 77.1% of the agreed target. As per the asset transfer agreement, the Company should have issued a total of 12,328,611 shares as a purchase price in 2019. Following administrative delay, it was agreed by both parties to postpone the issuance of the shares to 2020. Management initial financial projections for 2020 were maintained, based on the results obtained in 2019. The market share price used for the estimation of the fair value as at December 31, 2019 was established at $0.05 based on the current market price and the historical volatility of the Company.

The initial conditional compensation liability of $489,000 was re-evaluated on December 31, 2019, at a fair value of $748,000 considering the past performance, forecasted results and projected market share price at issuance. The difference of $259,000 between the re-evaluated fair value of the remaining conditional compensation and the previously accounted amount was recognized as a change in fair value of the contingent compensation payable in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss of the period.

The contingent liability relating to the 2019 shares that should have been issued, was classified as shares to be issued in the consolidated statements of changes in equity. The value of those shares was determined by using the

market price as at December 31, 2019. The difference of $254,586 between the value of shares to be issued ($493,414) and the fair value of the contingent liability ($748,000) is presented as a short-term liability in the

consolidated statements of financial position.

The Company's valuation of intangible assets has identified loan servicing agreements which are amortized on a straight-line basis with a useful life of 10 years. Significant assumptions used in the determination of intangible assets, as defined by management, include month over month loan renewals, discount rate and operating income before depreciation and amortization margin.

There were acquisition-related costs which amounted approximately to $10,000 with respect to consulting and professional fees. These costs were not included as part of the consideration transferred and have been recognized as an expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 12 - DEBENTURES

a)i) Debenture issuance of December 15, 2017

On December 15, 2017, the Company placed a total of 1,200 units of debentures at $10,000 par unit for a gross proceeds of $12,000,000. Each unit sold is comprised of $10,000 face value debentures plus 200,000 common share purchase warrants.

Debentures are secured by a pledge on the aggregate assets of the Company, maturing on December 15, 2019, bearing interest at a nominal rate of 8% payable monthly. The Company used the residual value method to allocate the principal amount of the debenture between the liability and the contributed surplus. Under this method, an amount of $2,721,260 (net of transaction costs) related to the warrants issued was applied to the contributed surplus. The fair value of the liability component was $9,005,148 computed as the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at a rate of 25%. The debentures allow their subscribers to surrender part or all of the amount invested in the debentures to exercise their warrants and purchase common shares of the Company any time prior to maturity, subject to certain terms and conditions, at a price of $0.05 per common share. The units contain a ''forced warrant conversion'' feature under which 50% of the face value of the debenture will automatically be surrendered to exercise 50% of the warrants if the Company common shares trade at $0.15 or more for 3 consecutive trading days, and 100% if the Company's common shares trade at $0.20 or more for 3 consecutive days.

 a)ii)Debenture issuance of December 15, 2017, extended to December 2020

On or before the maturity date of December 15, 2019, the company reached an agreement with holders of the debenture to extend the maturity of the debenture on December 15, 2020, at the same terms and conditions. At that time, the remaining face value of debentures was $3,540,000.

The remaining 70,800,000 remaining warrants at maturity accompanying the debenture were replaced by new warrants with the same attributes, except that they will expire on December 15, 2020, to coincide with the new maturity date of the debenture. For each warrant that is tied to the debenture, debenture holders will also receive an additional warrant that will allow them to acquire common shares of the Company at a price of $0.08 per share at any time for a period of 24 months from their date of issuance.

An exchange between an existing borrower and lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms shall be accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability. Similarly, a substantial modification of the terms of an existing financial liability or a part of it (whether or not attributable to the financial difficulty of the debtor) shall be accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the recognition of a new financial liability.

The renegotiation created a debt extinction for accounting purposes. The initial debt was derecognized and a new debt recognized at fair value, creating a loss on extinction of debt of $816,793.

The Company used the residual value method to allocate the principal amount of the debenture between the liability and the equity component. Under this method, an amount of $1,388,688 related to the conversion features and the warrants issued were applied to contributed surplus only as the debenture is non-convertible. The fair value of the liability component was $2,968,124 computed as the present value of future principal and interest discounted at a rate of 30%.

b) Debenture issuance of December 19, 2018

On December 19, 2018, the Company placed 51 units of unsecured convertible debentures at $10,000 per unit for a gross proceeds of $510,000. Each unit sold is comprised of $10,000 face value debentures, maturing on December 19, 2020, bearing interest at a nominal rate of 8% payable monthly, plus 10,000 purchase warrants exercisable into Company common share at $0.10 per share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

The debentures allow their subscribers to convert them into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity, subject to certain terms and conditions, at a price of $0.05 per common share.

The units contain a "forced warrant conversion" feature under which the debenture will automatically be surrendered and converted into common shares of the Company should the shares of the Company trade at $0.20 or more for 3 consecutive trading days.

The Company used the residual value method to allocate the principal amount of the debentures between the liability, equity component of debentures and the contributed surplus. Under this method, an amount of $93,940 and $3,578 (net of transaction costs) related to the conversion features and the warrants issued was applied to equity component of debenture and contributed surplus (respectively). The fair value of the liability component was $396,672 computed as the present value of future principal and interest discounted at a rate of 22%.
