(Expressed in Canadian dollars, except share amounts)

1. Corporate information

a) Corporate information

KWESST Micro Systems Inc. (the "Company", "KWESST", "we", "our", and "us") was incorporated on November 28, 2017, under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. Our registered office is located at 550 Burrard Street, Suite 2900, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and our corporate office is located at Unit 1, 155 Terrence Matthews Crescent, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. We have representative offices in the following foreign locations: Washington, DC (United States), London (United Kingdom), and Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates).

We develop and commercialize next-generation technology solutions that deliver a tactical advantage for military, public safety agencies and personal defense markets.  Our core mission is to protect and save lives.

KWESST's common stock is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V'') under the stock symbol of KWE, on the Nasdaq Capital Market ("Nasdaq") under the stock symbol of KWE and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the stock symbol of 62U.  Additionally, warrants issued in the United States are also listed on the Nasdaq under the stock symbol of KWESW.  Effective May 1, 2023, the warrants issued in Canada are listed on the TSX-V under the stock symbol of KWE.WT.U.

b) 2024 Reverse Stock Split

On October 23, 2024, KWESST effected a ten for one (10-for-1) reverse stock split of its common stock (the "2024 Reverse Split"). Accordingly, all shareholders of record at the opening of business on October 23, 2024, received one issued and outstanding common share of KWESST in exchange for ten outstanding common shares of KWESST. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the 2024 Reverse Split. All fractional shares created by the 2024 Reverse Split were rounded to the nearest whole number of common shares, with any fractional interest representing 0.5 or more common shares entitling holders thereof to receive one whole common share.

Effective on the date of the 2024 Reverse Split, the exercise price and number of common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants were proportionately adjusted to reflect the 2024 Reverse Split. All information respecting outstanding common shares and other securities of KWESST, including net loss per share, in the current and comparative periods presented herein give effect to the 2024 Reverse Split.

2. Basis of preparation

(a) Going concern

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. The going concern basis of presentation assumes we will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and can realize our assets and discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

As an early-stage company, we have not yet reached significant revenue levels for most of our products and have incurred significant losses and negative operating cash flows from inception that have primarily been funded from financing activities.  We have incurred a $3.5 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of $3.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 (2023 - $0.4 million net loss and negative operating cash flows of $2.9 million). At December 31, 2024, we had $2.8 million in working capital (September 30, 2024 - negative $1.1 million) and $46.1 million in accumulated deficit (September 30, 2024 - $42.7 million).

Our ability to continue as a going concern and realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon closing timely additional sales orders, timely commercial launch of new products, and the ability to raise additional debt or equity financing, when required. There are various risks and uncertainties affecting our future financial position and our performance including, but not limited to:


KWESST MICRO SYSTEMS INC.
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
Three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023
(Expressed in Canadian dollars, except share amounts)
  • The market acceptance and rate of sales of our product offerings;
  • Ability to successfully execute our business plan;
  • Ability to raise additional capital at acceptable terms;
  • General local and global economic conditions, including the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the global disruption from Russia's invasion of Ukraine; and
  • Instability in Canada's elected leadership and the threatened tariffs from President Donald Trump.

Our strategy to mitigate these material risks and uncertainties is to execute on a timely basis a business plan aimed at continued focus on revenue growth, product development and innovation, improving overall gross profit, managing operating expenses and working capital requirements, and securing additional capital, as needed.

Failure to implement our business plan could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and/or financial performance. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital should it be required in the future. Accordingly, there are material risks and uncertainties that may cast substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities and reported expenses that may otherwise be required if the going concern basis was not appropriate.

(b) Statement of compliance

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, ("IAS 34") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee.  They do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and should be read in conjunction with our annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended September 30, 2024 ("Annual Financial Statements"). However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are material to an understanding of the changes in our financial position and performance since the last annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended September 30, 2024.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on February 14, 2025.

(c) Basis of consolidation

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements incorporate the financial statements of KWESST and the entities it controls.

Control is achieved where we have the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities, are exposed to, or have rights to, variable returns from our involvement with the entity and have the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to us until the date on which control ceases. Profit or loss of subsidiaries acquired during the year are recognized from the date of acquisition or effective date of disposal as applicable. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

While each of the Company's subsidiaries has its own functional currency, the functional currency of the parent company, KWESST Micro Systems Inc., is CAD as this is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company operates.

(e) Basis of measurement

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments measured at fair value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

(f) Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income, expenses, and disclosure of contingent liabilities.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.

Judgments

Information about judgments made in applying accounting policies that have the most material effects on the amounts recognized in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as disclosed in Note 2(f) of the Annual Financial Statements for the year ended September 30, 2024.

Estimates

Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties at December 31, 2024, that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year are the same as disclosed in Note 2(f) of the Annual Financial Statements for the year ended September 30, 2024.

3. Material accounting policies

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the accounting policies in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Annual Financial Statements.

U.S. Public Offering (April 2024)

On April 9, 2024, we closed an underwritten U.S. public offering for gross proceeds of CAD$1.4 million (US$1 million) (see Note 11(a)). In this offering, 80,350 pre-funded warrants with an exercise price of US$0.01 per share for US$6.49 per pre-funded warrant were issued.

Refer to Note 11(a) for further information on the offering.

Under IFRS, the above securities are classified as financial liabilities (referred herein as "warrant liabilities") because the exercise price is denominated in U.S. dollars, which is different from our functional currency (Canadian dollars). Accordingly, the ultimate proceeds in Canadian dollars from the potential exercise of the above securities are not known at inception. These financial liabilities are classified and measured at FVTPL (see Note 3(c) of the Annual Financial Statements). Gains on revaluation of the warrant liabilities are presented in other income (expenses) on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

Warrant liabilities

All 80,350 warrants were subsequently exercised at a weighted average exercise price of US$0.01 and we recognized a loss of $104,227 in fair value of warrant liabilities during the year ended September 30, 2024, which was reported in the consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

U.S. Registered Direct Offering (August 2024)

On August 13, 2024, we closed a direct offering for the purchase and sale of 471,500 common shares at a purchase price of US$2.00 per common share for gross proceeds of CAD$1.3 million (US$0.9 million) (see Note 11(a)). In a concurrent private placement, we issued unregistered warrants to purchase up to 471,500 common shares at an exercise price of US$2.50. This was a unit offering consisting of a share and a warrant. The fair value of the warrants attached to the units are valued based on the Black-Scholes model and the difference between the proceeds raised and the value assigned to the warrants is the residual fair value of the shares.

Refer to Note 11(a) for further information on the offering.

Under IFRS, the above securities are classified as financial liabilities (referred herein as "warrant liabilities") because the exercise price is denominated in U.S. dollars, which is different from our functional currency (Canadian dollars). Accordingly, the ultimate proceeds in Canadian dollars from the potential exercise of the above securities are not known at inception. These financial liabilities are classified and measured at FVTPL (see Note 3(c) of the Annual Financial Statements). Gains on revaluation of the warrant liabilities are presented in other income (expenses) on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

Warrant liabilities

At December 31, 2024, we remeasured the fair value of these warrants using the following assumptions:

    2024 Warrants (1)  
Number of securities   471,500  
Exercise price (in USD) $ 2.50  
Nasdaq closing price (in USD) $ -  
Black Scholes fair value (in USD) $ 0.04  
Volatility   103%  
Risk free rate   2.92%  
Exchange rate (USD/CAD) $ 1.4389  
       
Fair value per warrant
$ 0.06  

(1) Fair value is based on the Black Scholes model on December 31, 2024, for the warrants.

We recognized a gain of $461,340 (2023 - nil) in fair value of warrant liabilities during the three months ended December 31, 2024, which was reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated net loss and comprehensive loss.

U.S. Public Offering (November 2024)

On November 1, 2024, the Company announced the closing of a public offering of 80,000 Common Shares and 3,809,000 pre-funded warrants (“PFW”) at a public offering price of $1.25 (US$0.90) per Common Share. The gross proceeds from the offering were $4.9 million (US$3.5 million). The fair value of the pre-funded warrants on initial recognition was 1.249, which is the purchase price less the exercise price of $0.001.

Refer to Note 11(a) for further information on the offering.

Under IFRS, the pre-funded warrants are classified as financial liabilities (referred herein as "warrant liabilities") because the exercise price is denominated in U.S. dollars, which is different to our functional currency (Canadian dollars). Accordingly, the ultimate proceeds in Canadian dollars from the potential exercise of the above securities are not known at inception. These financial liabilities are classified and measured at FVTPL. Gains on revaluation of the warrant liabilities are presented in other income (expenses) on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

Warrant liabilities

639,000 pre-funded warrants were subsequently exercised at a weighted average exercise price of US$0.01. On November 12, 2024, we converted the remaining 3,170,000 pre-funded warrants to CAD denomination which led to the transfer of pre-funded warrants to equity and extinguishing the warrant liability. On November 12, 2024, we recognized a gain of $693,328 in the change in fair value of warrant liabilities, before reclassifying the pre-funded warrants to equity, which was reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

U.S. Public Offering (November 2024)

On November 1, 2024, the Company announced the closing of a public offering of 80,000 Common Shares and 3,809,000 pre-funded warrants ("PFW") at a public offering price of $1.25 (US$0.90) per Common Share (the "November 2024 Offering"). The gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $4.9 million (US$3.5 million), before deducting placement agent fees of $0.094 (US$0.0675) per Common Share (being an aggregate of $365,726 (US$262,508) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities). In addition, the Company issued to the placement agent as compensation for its services 194,450 common share purchase warrants with an exercise price of $1.567 (US$1.125) per share.

On November 12, 2024, we amended the PFWs whereas the exercise price of the warrants, along with all the other settlement amounts, were amended to be denominated in CAD currency, which is consistent with the Company's functional and presentation currency. As a result, we reclassified the remaining unexercised PFW's as equity instruments under IAS 32. This resulted in a transfer of $3,301,925 from warrant liabilities to equity warrants. The amendments effectively remove the cashless exercise option and ensure settlement in CAD, thereby meeting the criteria for equity classification. We also applied IFRIC 19 to appropriately derecognize the liabilities and recognize the equity effective November 12, 2024.

Accounting Treatment

Refer to Note 10 for the accounting of the warrants issued in the November 2024 Offering accounted for as warrant liabilities up to November 11, 2024.

The remaining 3,170,000 PFWs were subsequently exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $1.04, for proceeds of $3,301,925, during the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Brokers' Compensation and Share Offering Costs

In connection with the August 2024 Offering, Wainwright was also granted a tail obligation resulting in earning 7.5% on any equity financing raised from investors introduced to the Company as part of the offering. The November 1, 2024 financing fell entirely within the scope of the tail obligation and resulted in a payment of $362,618 (US$260,661), representing 7.5% of the $4.9 million (US$3.5 million) gross proceeds to Wainwright upon closing of the transaction.

ThinkEquity acted as the sole placement agent for the November 2024 Offering. As compensation for services rendered, the placement agent fees were $365,725 (US$262,508) or 7.5% of the public offering price of the securities). In addition, the Company issued to the placement agent as compensation for its services 194,450 common share purchase warrants with an exercise price of $1.567 (US$1.125) per share. The warrants are exercisable upon issuance and have an expiry date of November 1, 2029. The shares offered as Brokers' Compensation related to the November 2024 Offering were recognized in equity.

Debt Settlement (November 2024)

On November 11, 2024, we issued 119,047 common shares at a deemed price per Common Share of CAD$0.84 per share, representing a 20% discount on the closing price of the Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange on the last trading day prior to this news release, for settlement of business expenses incurred while representing the Company in an aggregate amount of $100,000 owed to a company controlled by Mr. David Luxton, Chairman of the Company.

Private Placement (November 2024)

On November 12, 2024, we closed a brokered private placement offering to an institutional accredited investor for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.4 million (approximately US$2.5 million) (the "November 2024 PP").

As a part of the November 2024 PP, the Company issued 4,145,200 pre-funded warrants to acquire one common share of the Company, no par value per share at a price of $0.824 (US$0.592) per pre-funded warrant, inclusive of the exercise price of $0.001 per Common Share. Each pre-funded warrant was bundled with one common share purchase warrant ("Common Warrant") of the Company. Each Common Warrant is immediately exercisable and entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price of $1.03 (US$0.74) per Common Share for a period of 60 months following the closing of the November 2024 PP. Although the pre-funded warrants are each bundled with a Common Warrant, each security is issued separately. Since the instruments were bundled, the Company uses the bifurcation method to determine the fair value of each security. The Black Scholes model was used to determine the fair value of the underlying Common Warrant and the remainder of the purchase price was allocated to the pre-funded warrant, resulting in a fair value of the Common Warrants of $0.765 and a fair value of $0.06 for the pre-funded warrants.

c) Contributed Surplus

Contributed surplus consists of issued broker compensation options at fair value, the cumulative amortized fair value of share-based compensation grants since inception, less amounts transferred to share capital for exercises. If outstanding options expire or are forfeited, there is no reversal of contributed surplus.

Share-based compensation

On August 26, 2024, KWESST shareholders approved the renewal of the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"). The number of RSUs, PSUs, deferred share units ("DSUs"), and stock appreciation rights ("SARs") (collectively "Share Units") authorized for issuance pursuant to the LTIP is 40,727 Share Units. Accordingly, we have 18,166 Share Units available for future grants.

Further, the disinterested shareholders (shareholders that are not directors, officers, or other insiders of the Company) of KWESST approved to revise the exercise price of 50,981 stock options to $36.00, the closing price of KWESST common shares on the TSX-V on March 31, 2023. In accordance with IFRS 2, this resulted in an immediate fair value increase of $77,001 included in share-based compensation, with an offset to contributed surplus.

We did not grant any stock options, RSUs, PSUs, and SARs, pursuant to our LTIP during the three months ended December 31, 2024. Accordingly, we had 22,561 outstanding stock options at December 31, 2024, we have 766,161 stock option units available for future grants.

          Weighted  
    Number of     average  
    options     exercise price  
Outstanding at September 30, 2024   25,811   $ 26.44

Options exercisable at December 31, 2024   12,436   $ 27.45  

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded share-based compensation of $51,055 (2023 - $63,489).

12. Loss per share

As disclosed in Note 1(b), the 2024 Reverse Split has been applied retrospectively herein.

The following table summarizes the calculation of the weighted average basic number of basic and diluted common shares to calculate the loss per share as reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of net loss and comprehensive loss:

    Three months     Three months  
    ended     ended  
    December 31,     December 31,  
    2024     2023  
Issued common shares, beginning of period   1,579,176     561,678  
Effect of shares issued from:            
November 2024 U.S. Public Offering (Note 11(a))   52,174     -  
Debt settlements   64,699     -  
Exercise of warrants   1,336,119     -  
Weighted average number of dilutive common shares   3,032,168     561,678  

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, all dilutive securities, being warrants, pre-funded warrants and stock options, were anti-dilutive because we incurred a net loss for the above periods.

15. Financial instruments

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, there were no material changes to our financial risks as disclosed in Note 23 of the Annual Financial Statements, except for the following:

Foreign currency risk

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, we raised grossed proceeds of $4.9 million (US$3.5 million) in a November US Public Offering (see Note 11(a)), including the issuance of warrants with exercise price denominated in U.S. dollar in the November U.S. Public Offering (see Note 10). Warrants exercised in the three months ended December 31, 2024 resulted in proceeds of $0.8 million (US$0.6 million). On November 12, 2024, the warrants were subsequently converted to CAD denomination and extinguished from liabilities as they were transferred to equity. We also raised gross proceeds of $3.4 million (US$2.5 million) in a November CAD Private Placement (see Note 11(a)), including the issuance of warrants with exercise price denominated in CAD dollar in the November Private Placement (see Note 10). Although the financing was denominated in CAD, the terms of the deal allowed for the proceeds to be sent to the Company in the U.S. dollar currency for convenience. Also, certain of our revenues were denominated in U.S. dollars and we also procure certain raw materials denominated in U.S. dollars for product development. Accordingly, we are exposed to the U.S. dollar currency. Where a natural hedge cannot be achieved, a significant change in the U.S. dollar currency could have a significant effect on our financial performance, financial position and cash flows. Currently, we do not use derivative instruments to hedge the U.S. dollar exposure. Throughout the year we maintained the majority of our cash assets in the U.S. dollar currency and converted to CAD as needed as we primarily raise our funds in the U.S. dollar currency.

At December 31, 2024, we had the following net U.S. dollar exposure:

    Total USD  
Net assets in U.S. subsidiary $ -  
       
US denominated from other:      
Assets $ 1,701,754  
Liabilities   (543,004 )
    1,158,750  
       
Net US dollar exposure  $ 1,158,750  
       
Impact to profit or loss if 5% movement in the US dollar $ 57,938  

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a foreign exchange gain of $113,283 (2023 - gain of $91,710).

At December 31, 2024, we had $2.9 million in cash and $2.8 million in working capital (current assets less current liabilities).

16.   Supplemental cash flow information

The following is a summary of non-cash items that were excluded from the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended December 31, 2024:
