Proxy contest costs were related to a dissident shareholder's challenge of the Company's 2019 annual general meeting proxy.

Previously, interest income and finance costs were labeled on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as other expenses. In 2019 they have been disaggregated and re-labeled as interest income and finance costs.
