Independent Auditor's Report
 

To the Shareholders of Small Pharma Inc. (formerly, Unilock Capital Corp.):

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Small Pharma Inc. (formerly, Unilock Capital Corp.) and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at February 28, 2023 and February 28, 2022, and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as at February 28, 2023 and February 28, 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audits of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audits or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We obtained Management's Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor's report. If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audits and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audits.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Ajmer Singh Sran.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the years ended February 28, 2023 and 2022
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Small Pharma Inc. (formerly, Unilock Capital Corp.) (the "Company" or "Small Pharma Inc.") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "BCBCA") on January 23, 2018. Small Pharma Inc is a biotechnology company focused on developing short-duration psychedelic-assisted therapies for the treatment of mental health conditions. The Company's head office is located at 6-8 Bonhill Street, 3rd Floor, London, UK.

Effective April 29, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of all of the issued outstanding ordinary shares of Small Pharma Ltd which constituted the Company's qualifying transaction under TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies. This transaction constituted a reverse acquisition of the Company by Small Pharma Ltd, with Small Pharma Ltd being identified as the accounting acquirer. As a result, these consolidated financial statements are a continuation of Small Pharma Ltd. The Company's results of operations are included from April 29, 2021, onwards, except for capital which has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the capital of the Company. Refer to Note 3.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. The impact on the Company has not been significant, but management continues to monitor the situation.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee issued and outstanding as of February 28, 2023.

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the board of directors on June 28, 2023.

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Small Pharma Ltd, a company incorporated in the UK on February 4, 2015, Small Pharma (US) Inc., a company incorporated in the State of Delaware, USA on July 5, 2022 that does not currently have significant assets and is not currently conducting active business operations and an amalgamated entity ("Amalco") between 1292589 B.C. Ltd. ("Subco") and Small Pharma Financing Inc. ("Finco") until Amalco's dissolution on October 7, 2021. Refer to Note 3.

Subsidiaries are those entities over which the Company has control. Control exists when the company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity and be exposed to the variable returns from its activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control commences until the date that control ceases.

All intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

(b) Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments and equity instruments which are measured at fair value. All monetary references expressed in these notes are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(c) Use of Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") requires the Company's management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include:

Income taxes, research and development expenditures tax credits and recoverability of potential deferred tax assets

In assessing the probability of realizing any income tax assets recognized, management makes estimates related to expectations of future taxable income, applicable tax planning opportunities, expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences and the likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities. In preparing income tax claims submitted to the tax authorities in relation to research and development expenditure, management makes estimates of the percentage of time spent by employees on qualifying research and development projects. Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecasted cash flows from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. Examination by applicable tax authorities is supported based on individual facts and circumstances of the relevant tax position examined in the light of all available evidence. Where applicable tax laws and regulations are either unclear or subject to ongoing varying interpretations, it is reasonably possible that changes in these estimates can occur that materially affect the amounts of income tax assets recognized. Also, future changes in tax laws could limit the Company from realizing the tax benefits from the deferred tax assets. The Company reassesses unrecognized income tax assets at each reporting period.

Share-based payments

Management determines the charge for share-based payments using market-based valuation techniques. The fair value of the market-based share awards are determined at the date of grant using generally accepted valuation techniques, which is dependent on the terms and condition of the grant. Assumptions are made and judgment used in applying valuation techniques. These assumptions and judgments include estimating the future volatility of the stock price, expected dividend yield, future forfeiture rates and future equity instrument exercise behaviors and corporate performance. Such judgments and assumptions are inherently uncertain. Changes in these assumptions affect the fair value estimates.

Derivative liabilities

The Company makes estimates and assumptions relating to the fair value measurement and disclosure of its derivative liabilities. The fair values are determined using a variety of valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible, but where observable market data is not available, management's judgment is required to establish fair values.

Going concern

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Management's assessment of going concern involves significant judgment based on historical experience, progress made in clinical trials and other factors, including reasonable expectations of future events based on the circumstances that existed at the reporting date.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(d) Cash

Cash in the consolidated statements of financial position comprise of cash held at banks and cash held in trust.

(e) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The Company depreciates the cost of property and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line basis at the following rates:

Computer equipment 4 years
Equipment 4 years

(f) Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any.

Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit ("CGU") to which the asset belongs. The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of fair value less direct costs to sell and the asset's value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value. Estimated future cash flows are calculated using estimated recoverable reserves, estimated future commodity prices, and the expected future operating and capital costs. The pre-tax discount rate applied to the estimated future cash flows reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the future cash flow estimates have not been adjusted.

If the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is reduced to its recoverable amount through an impairment charge to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Assets that have been impaired are tested for possible reversal of the impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the impairment may have reversed. When an impairment subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of depreciation, depletion and amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or CGU in prior periods. A reversal of impairment is recognized as a gain in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

(g) Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries during the twelve months ended February 28, 2023 is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of Small Pharma Ltd is the British pound sterling. The functional currency of Small Pharma (US) Inc. is the United States dollar.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated using the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date or at the annual average rate. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange in effect at the consolidated statements of financial position date. Non-monetary items are translated using the historical rate on the date of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Small Pharma Ltd and Small Pharma (US) Inc., translate their statements of operations and comprehensive loss items at the average rate during the period. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Exchange rate variations resulting from the retranslation at the closing rate of the net investment in these subsidiaries, together with differences between their statements of operations and comprehensive loss items translated at actual and average rates, are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

The exchange rates used in the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

    February 28,     February 28,  
    2023     2022  
Closing rate (GBP:CAD)   1.6457     1.7024  
Average rate (GBP:CAD)   1.5949     1.7196  
Closing rate (USD:CAD)   1.3609     n/a  
Average rate (USD:CAD)   1.3347     n/a  

(h) Research and Development Costs

Research costs are charged to operations as incurred. Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditures are capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to or has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalized includes the cost of materials, direct labour and overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use and borrowing costs on qualifying assets. Other development expenditures are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as incurred. At the reporting date, the technical and commercial viability of the Company's products has not yet been established and all development costs are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as incurred. Non-refundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used for future research and development activities are deferred as prepaid expenses until the goods are delivered or services performed. Preclinical and clinical study costs are accrued over the service periods specified in the contracts and adjusted as necessary based on an ongoing review of the costs actually incurred.

(i) Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the respective instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL")) are included in the initial carrying value of the related instrument and are amortized using the effective interest method. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Fair value estimates are made at the statement of financial position date based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. All financial instruments are classified into either: FVTPL or amortized cost.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(i) Financial Instruments (continued)

The Company has made the following classifications:

Cash Amortized cost 
Trade and other receivables (excluding sales tax receivables) Amortized cost 
Restricted cash Amortized cost 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized cost 
Lease liabilities Amortized cost 
Notes payable Amortized cost 
Derivative liabilities FVTPL 

Financial Assets

The classification of financial assets depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition.

Financial assets at FVTPL

Financial assets are classified as FVTPL when the financial asset is either held for trading or it is designated as FVTPL. A financial asset is classified as held for trading if:

  • it has been acquired principally for the purpose of selling it in the near term; or
  • on initial recognition it is part of a portfolio of identified financial instruments that the Company manages together and has a recent actual pattern of short-term profit-taking; or
  • it is a derivative that is not designated and effective as a hedging instrument.

Financial assets at amortized cost

Financial assets at amortized cost are non-derivative financial assets which are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows and its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable or other receivable without a significant financing component that is initially measured at the transaction price) is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets are measured at amortized cost unless designated as fair value through profit or loss.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those classified as FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been decreased.

The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account.

When a trade or other receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are offset against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Loss allowances are based on the lifetime expected credit losses that result from all possible default events over the expected life of the trade receivable, using the simplified approach.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(i) Financial Instruments (continued)

For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments

Classification as debt or equity

Debt and equity instruments issued by the Company are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

Equity instruments

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recognized as the proceeds received, net of direct issuance costs.

Other financial liabilities

Other financial liabilities (including notes payable, lease liabilities, trade payables and accrued liabilities) are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Subsequently, other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.

(j) Notes Payable and Derivative Liabilities

Upon initial recognition, the Company determines whether the convertible notes payable consist of liability and equity components, or if both components represent liabilities. For notes payable which provide conversion into a fixed number of shares (the "fixed-for-fixed" criteria), the liability component is initially recorded at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The liability component is accreted to the face value over the term of the notes payable. The equity component is recognized as the difference between the fair value of the instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

For notes payable which provide conversion into a variable number of shares or into a fixed number of shares for a variable amount of consideration, the conversion option is accounted for as an embedded derivative, which is separated from the host contract. The conversion option of the notes payable outstanding at February 28, 2021 met the criteria of a derivative instrument liability because the conversion price of the notes payable varied depending on certain factors and thus did not meet the "fixed-for-fixed" criteria. As a result, the Company separately account for the conversion feature as a derivative liability recorded at fair value and marked-to-market each period with the changes in the fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The notes payable liability component is recognized as the difference between the fair value of the instrument as a whole and the fair value of the derivative liabilities.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The fair value of derivative liabilities was calculated based on a probability weighted scenario approach, whereby the probability of conversion of notes payable and the probability of notes payable being held to maturity are estimated based on management's expectations while utilizing various discount rates.

(k) Income Taxes

Current income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity and not in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate. Tax credits that can be claimed in relation to specific research and development expenditures are recognized once the claim and supporting documentation has been submitted to the tax authority and collectability of the claimed amount is reasonably assured.

Deferred income tax

Deferred income tax is provided using the statement of financial position method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized only to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(l) Share-based Payments

The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized as an expense is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

Share-based payment arrangements in which the Company receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments are accounted for as equity-settled, share-based payment transactions, regardless of how the equity instruments are obtained by the Company.

The fair value of the options is measured at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value is recognized as an expense over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specified vesting conditions are satisfied with a corresponding increase in equity. For awards with graded vesting, the fair value of each tranche is recognized over its respective vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are considered in making assumptions about the number of awards that are expected to vest. When the options are exercised, any proceeds received are credited to share capital along with the amount reflected in share-based payment reserve.

(o) Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The treasury stock method is used for the calculation of diluted loss per share, whereby all "in the money" stock options and share purchase warrants are assumed to have been exercised at the beginning of the period and the proceeds from their exercise are assumed to have been used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. When a loss is incurred during the period, basic and diluted loss per share are the same as the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants is considered to be anti-dilutive. As at February 28, 2023 and 2022, all outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants are anti-dilutive.

(p) Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

The following new interpretations and amendments to existing accounting standards have been issued by the IASB, but have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements as they are not yet effective until financial years beginning on or after January 1, 2023. None are expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements - Classification of liabilities as current and non-current and Disclosure of accounting policies (effective January 1, 2023)

Amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes - amendments regarded deferred tax on leases and decommissioning (effective January 1, 2023)

Amendments to IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting and Errors - amendments to provide guidance in distinguishing between accounting policies and accounting estimates (effective January 1, 2023)

In addition, there are several new interpretations and amendments issued but not yet effective that are not applicable to the Company and so have not been included in the list above.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(q) Segmented Information

Reportable segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available, that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Company's operations primarily relate to the development of psychedelic and non-psychedelic medicine. The Company's management considers the business to have a single operation segment. The management's decisions are based on a single, integrated strategy and the performance is evaluated on an overall basis.

(r) Related Party Transactions

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

(s) Leases

Under IFRS 16, Leases, the Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date for leases greater than 12 months. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are subsequently depreciated over the remaining term of the lease and are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are subsequently reduced by lease payments net of interest expense calculated using the effective interest method.

Leases in which the Company is acting as lessee are only short-term lease contracts, for a period of 12 months or less. Payments under such leases are recognized to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

3. Acquisition of Small Pharma Ltd on April 29, 2021

The Company, certain shareholders of the Company, and Small Pharma Ltd entered into an agreement on November 30, 2020, as amended on February 23, 2021, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Small Pharma Ltd (the "Qualifying Transaction").

On March 9, 2021, Finco issued 60,416,667 subscription receipts for gross proceeds of $58,000,000 (Note 10 (d)). The subscription receipts were converted into Finco shares on the basis of one Finco share for each subscription receipt. Concurrently upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company (formerly Unilock Capital Corp.), Subco and Finco completed a three-cornered amalgamation, pursuant to which all Finco shareholders exchanged Finco shares for the Company's shares on a one-for-one basis, and Finco and Subco amalgamated into Amalco, a subsidiary of the Company. On October 7, 2021, Amalco was wound-up and dissolved under the BCBCA, pursuant to which all of the assets of Amalco were distributed to the Company.

The closing of the Qualifying Transaction occurred on April 29, 2021, at which time the Company issued 255,079,477 common shares in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Small Pharma Ltd. Small Pharma Ltd effected a share split of its ordinary shares on a 1:100 basis immediately prior to the closing of the Qualifying Transaction. All share amounts have been retroactively restated for all periods presented. The Company consolidated its common shares on a 4.6:1 basis immediately prior to the closing of the Qualifying Transaction.

As a result of the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the former shareholders of Small Pharma Ltd acquired 81% of the outstanding common shares of the Company, and, for accounting purposes, are considered to have acquired control of the Company. Accordingly, the Qualifying Transaction constitutes a reverse acquisition of the Company by Small Pharma Ltd and has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition transaction in accordance with the guidance provided in IFRS 2, Share-based Payment, and IFRS 3, Business Combinations. As the Company did not qualify as a business prior to the closing of the Qualifying Transaction according to the definition in IFRS 3, this reverse acquisition did not constitute a business combination; rather it was treated as an issuance of shares by Small Pharma Ltd for the net assets of the Company. Accordingly, no goodwill was recorded with respect to the transaction.

The transaction was measured at the fair value of the common shares that Small Pharma Ltd would have had to issue to the shareholders of the Company, being 1,304,344 common shares with a fair value of $1,252,170, and the fair value of 130,433 stock options of the Company with a fair value of $90,018, to give the shareholders of the Company the same percentage of equity interest in the combined entity that results from the reverse acquisition had it taken the legal form of Small Pharma Ltd acquiring the Company.

3. Acquisition of Small Pharma Ltd on April 29, 2021 (continued)

The fair value of common shares and stock options issued are estimated based on the financing event which took place concurrently to the reverse takeover transaction at the price of $0.96 per common share (Note 10 (d)). These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as at April 29, 2021 and the historical accounts of the business of Small Pharma Ltd since its incorporation on February 4, 2015.

The purchase price was allocated as follows:

    $  
Fair value of Small Pharma Inc. shares (1,304,344 common shares)   1,252,170  
Fair value of 130,433 stock options of the Company outstanding   90,018  
Total consideration   1,342,188  
Less: fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired:      
Cash   109,146  
Prepaid expenses   38,533  
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (15,504 )
Net assets   132,175  
Listing costs   1,210,013  

Refer to Note 10 (d) for details of the concurrent subscription receipt financing in connection with the reverse acquisition.

The fair value of stock options of Small Pharma Inc. was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: volatility of 100%, expected life of 2.5 years, no dividends, and a risk-free rate of 0.44%.

Included in listing costs for the year ended February 28, 2022 is $1,209,723 in connection with certain tax expenditures incurred as part of the Qualifying Transaction.

5. Restricted Cash

Following completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company had long-term restricted cash of $2,500,000 in relation to a trust arrangement with a third-party trustee to cover indemnity claims available under applicable law to the directors and officers of the Company. On August 1, 2022 an insurance policy was taken out by the Company to cover such claims and as a result, on August 29, 2022 the Company terminated the trust arrangement and the restricted cash was released back into unrestricted cash.

7. Notes Payable

During the year ended February 28, 2021, the Company issued two tranches of convertible notes payable bearing interest at 6% per annum. The conversion feature, upon triggering of certain events, converted the notes payable into the Company's common shares at 20% discount to relevant fund-raising share price. As a result, the number of common shares of the Company to be issued upon conversion was variable. Therefore, the conversion feature was classified as a derivative liability in accordance with IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation.

On March 8, 2021, the Company modified the conversion price of certain convertible notes payable in the amount of £2,597,512 from a 20% discount to relevant fund-raising share price to a 36% discount.

On April 29, 2021, the Company completed a reverse takeover transaction and concurrent financing event. As a result, the carrying value of the convertible notes payable in the amount of $9,056,561, and the fair value of the derivative liabilities on April 29, 2021 in the amount of $3,850,458, together with accrued interest payable of $281,572, were converted into common shares of the Company. Therefore, the share capital was increased by the respective amount. Refer to Note 10 (d).

(a) As at February 29, 2021, the Company had convertible notes payable of $5,000,000. The notes bore interest at 6% per annum and were to mature on July 1, 2021. The notes payable and accrued interest were converted to ordinary shares of Small Pharma Ltd at $0.768 per share on April 29, 2021. Refer to Note 10 (d).

(b) As at February 29, 2021, the Company had convertible notes payable of $4,607,207 (£2,597,512). The notes bore interest at 6% per annum and were to mature on July 1, 2021. The notes payable and accrued interest were converted to ordinary shares of Small Pharma Ltd at approximately $0.61 (£0.36) per share on April 29, 2021. Refer to Note 10 (d).

(c) As at February 28, 2023, the accrued interest payable was $nil (February 28, 2022 - $nil). For the year ended February 28, 2023 the Company incurred interest expense of $nil (February 28, 2022 - $92,959 (£54,030)).

8. Derivative Liabilities

As the conversion price of the notes payable at February 28, 2021 varied depending on certain factors, the Company recorded embedded derivative liabilities in its consolidated statement of financial position with a corresponding discount which was netted against the principal amount of the convertible notes payable. Refer to Note 7. The Company accreted the discount associated with the embedded derivative liabilities to accretion expense over the term of the convertible notes payable using effective interest rates between 15% and 23%. The embedded derivative liabilities were initially measured at fair value and re- measured at the end of each reporting period with any changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Foreign currency translation adjustment   (71,313 )
Amount transferred to share capital upon conversion   (3,850,458 )
Balance, February 28, 2022 and February 28, 2023   -  

In relation to the modification of the conversion price from a 20% discount to the relevant fund-raising share price to a 36% discount, the Company remeasured the fair value of derivative liabilities and recognized a loss in change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the amount of $1,220,606 on March 8, 2021.

The fair value of derivative liabilities as at the date of conversion (April 29, 2021) was calculated using an estimated share price which is based on a probability weighted scenario approach, whereby the probability of conversion of the notes payable is 100% and the probability of the notes payable being held to maturity is 0%. The calculation utilized an estimated discount rate from 0% to 1%.

10. Share Capital (continued)

(b) Normal course issuer bid program

On August 18, 2022, the TSXV accepted the Company's notice of intention to establish a NCIB. The NCIB permits the purchase for cancellation of up to 5,000,000 of the Company's common shares, over a 12 month period, representing 1.55% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares on the date of announcement.

The NCIB commenced on August 19, 2022 and will terminate by the earlier of: August 18, 2023 and the date the Company has acquired the maximum number of common shares under the NCIB. The Company may also, at its discretion, terminate the NCIB prior to such date. The price paid for any common shares purchased under the NCIB will be the market price of such shares at the time of the applicable purchases.

On September 13, 2022 the Company entered into an automatic share purchase plan (the "ASPP") with its designated broker allowing the purchases of common shares for cancellation under its NCIB program. The ASPP was terminated on October 26, 2022 in accordance with its terms.

During the year ended February 28, 2023, the Company purchased and cancelled 1,788,000 common shares at a weighted average price of $0.270 per share, net of commission costs, for a total amount of $483,040. The Company intends to cancel all future purchases of common shares under the NCIB within eight days following the month in which such purchases occurred.

(c) Movements in issued share capital in the current period:

  • On April 14, 2022, the Company issued 912,500 common shares for proceeds of $15,156 pursuant to the exercise of stock options. The fair value of stock options exercised of $20,504 was transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

  • On June 15, 2022, the Company issued 1,050,000 common shares for proceeds of $16,574 pursuant to the exercise of stock options. The fair value of stock options exercised of $22,389 was transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

(d) Movements in issued share capital in the prior year:

  • On March 9, 2021, the Company together with Small Pharma Ltd and Finco, entered into an agency agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp. Eight Capital, and Haywood Securities Inc. (collectively, the "Agents"). On March 9, 2021, pursuant to the agency agreement, Finco completed a brokered private placement of 60,416,667 subscription receipts at a price of $0.96 per subscription receipt for gross proceeds of $58,000,000 (Note 3). Each subscription receipt was exchanged into common shares of the Company on the basis of one subscription receipt for one common share of the Company. In connection with the subscription receipt financing noted above, the Company incurred share issuance costs of $4,200,618. The Company also issued 3,947,547 compensation warrants with a fair value of $1,977,735 to the Agents. The fair value of compensation warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: volatility of 100%, expected life of 2 years, no dividends, and a risk-free rate of 0.29%.
  • On April 23, 2021, Small Pharma Ltd issued 12,296,400 ordinary shares for proceeds of $42,690 pursuant to the exercise of stock options. The fair value of stock options exercised of $305,223 was transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

  • On April 29, 2021, Small Pharma Ltd issued 14,161,576 ordinary shares for the conversion of notes payable of $9,056,561 and accrued interest payable of $281,572, and settlement of derivative liabilities of $3,850,458. Refer to Notes 7 and 8.

  • On April 29, 2021, the Company closed the Qualifying Transaction, resulting in a reverse acquisition (refer to Note 3). The Qualifying Transaction was measured at the fair value of the ordinary shares that Small Pharma Ltd would have had to issue to the shareholders of the Company, being 1,304,344 common shares with a fair value of $1,252,170.
  • On July 20, 2021, the Company issued 1,000,000 common shares for proceeds of $17,500 pursuant to the exercise of stock options. The fair value of stock options exercised of $24,236 was transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

  • On January 18, 2022, the Company issued 1,825,000 common shares for proceeds of $31,154 pursuant to the exercise of stock options. The fair value of stock options exercised of $42,661 was transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

(e) Loss per share

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is based on the following losses and number of common shares:

    Year ended
February 28,
    Year ended
February 28,
 
    2023     2022  
Net loss for the year $ (22,836,213 ) $ (22,265,684 )
Weighted average number of shares outstanding - basic and diluted   321,470,166     311,599,658  
Loss per share - basic and diluted $ (0.07 ) $ (0.07 )

The diluted weighted average number of shares does not take into account the effects of stock options and warrants outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive for all periods above.

13. Fair Value Measurements and Risk Management

(a) Fair Values

The fair values of the Company's financial instruments, which include cash, trade and other receivables (excluding sales tax receivables), and accounts payable, accrued liabilities and lease liabilities, approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments.

Notes payable and restricted cash are carried at amortized cost.

Derivative liabilities are carried at fair value.

Fair value hierarchy

The following provides a description of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:

Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Derivative liabilities are measured as a level 3 fair value measurement.

(b) Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade and other receivables. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. For trade and other receivables, the Company limits its exposure to credit risk by dealing with what management believes to be financially sound counter parties. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.

Trade and other receivables is comprised of sales tax receivables, research & development tax credit receivables and other receivables. The breakdown of trade and other receivables is as follows:

    Year
ended
February 28,
    Year
ended
February 28,
 
    2023     2022  
Sales tax receivables   793,895     553,429  
Research and development credit receivables   -     655,166  
Other receivables   6,278     5,311  
             
Total   800,173     1,213,906  

During the year ended February 28, 2023, the Company received a $1,885,196 tax credit relating to research and development expenditures claimed for the year ended February 28, 2022 and a $655,166 tax credit relating to research and development expenditures claimed for the year ended February 28, 2021.

(c) Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in a foreign currency.

Small Pharma Ltd, the Company's operating subsidiary, operates in the UK and has certain monetary financial instruments denominated in British pound sterling. Small Pharma (US) Inc., an indirect subsidiary of the Company, operates in the US and has certain monetary financial instruments denominated in US dollars. The Company has not entered into foreign exchange rate contracts to mitigate these risks.

The following table indicates the impact of foreign currency exchange risk on net working capital as at February 28, 2023. The table below also provides a sensitivity analysis of a 10% strengthening of the foreign currency against functional currencies identified which would have increased (decreased) the Company's comprehensive loss for the period by the amounts shown in the table below. A 10% weakening of the foreign currency against the functional currencies would have had the equal but opposite effect as at February 28, 2023 and February 28, 2022.

Impact of a 10% strengthening or weakening of foreign exchange rate   919,306     2,122,657  

(d) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk as it does not have any liabilities with variable rates.

(e) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company's objective to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it has sufficient liquidity available to meet its liabilities when due. The Company relies on raising debt or equity financing in a timely manner.

The following amounts are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at February 28, 2023 and February 28, 2022:

The Company has commitments primarily for contracts supporting clinical trials. The Company is subject to commitments as follows:

As at February 28, 2023   $  
Within one year   4,964,191  
In the second to third years   286,469  
In the fourth to fifth years   16,355  
Total   5,267,015  

As at February 28, 2023, there is an unprovided contingent liability of $2,104,394 in relation to officers and employee bonuses. The board approved payment of these bonuses in the event that certain conditions are satisfied. Management's view is that it is unlikely that the conditions will be satisfied to trigger the payment of the bonuses for the year ended February 28, 2023 and therefore $nil has been included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at February 28, 2023.

This transaction constituted a reverse acquisition of the Company by Small Pharma Ltd, with Small Pharma Ltd being identified as the accounting acquirer. As a result, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are a continuation of Small Pharma Ltd.

The NCIB commenced on August 19, 2022 and will terminate by the earlier of: August 18, 2023 and the date the Company has acquired the maximum number of common shares under the NCIB. The Company may also, at its discretion, terminate the NCIB prior to such date. The price paid for any common shares purchased under the NCIB will be the market price of such shares at the time of the applicable purchases.

7. Share Capital (continued)

(e) Loss per share

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is based on the following losses and number of common shares:

    Three months
ended
May 31,
2023
 
    Three months
ended
May 31,
2022
 
 
             
Net loss for the period $ (5,643,667 ) $ (5,781,704 )
             
Weighted average number of shares outstanding - basic and diluted   321,562,487     320,091,655  
          -  
Loss per share - basic and diluted $ (0.02 ) $ (0.02 )

The diluted weighted average number of shares does not take into account the effects of stock options and warrants outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive for all periods above.

(f) Restrictions on shares

Following completion of the Qualifying Transaction, at February 28, 2022 140,426,893 common shares and 11,384,127 stock options were required to be held in escrow or subject to a contractual restriction on transfer. On November 4, 2022 all remaining common shares and options under restrictions were released from escrow. As a result, at February 28, 2023 and May 31, 2023 no common shares or options were subject to escrow or contractual restrictions on transfer.

10. Fair Value Measurements and Risk Management

(a) Fair Values

The fair values of the Company's financial instruments, which include cash, trade and other receivables (excluding sales tax receivables), and accounts payable, accrued liabilities and lease liabilities, approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments.

Fair value hierarchy

The following provides a description of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:

Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

For the three months ended May 31, 2023 and 2022
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

10. Fair Value Measurements and Risk Management (continued)

Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

(b) Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade and other receivables. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. For trade and other receivables, the Company limits its exposure to credit risk by dealing with what management believes to be financially sound counter parties. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.

(c) Foreign Exchange Rate Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in a foreign currency.

Small Pharma Ltd, the Company's operating subsidiary, operates in the UK and has certain monetary financial instruments denominated in British pound sterling. Small Pharma (US) Inc., an indirect subsidiary of the Company, operates in the US and has certain monetary financial instruments denominated in US dollars. The Company has not entered into foreign exchange rate contracts to mitigate this risk.

The following table indicates the impact of foreign currency exchange risk on net working capital as at May 31, 2023. The table below also provides a sensitivity analysis of a 10% strengthening of the foreign currency against functional currencies identified which would have increased (decreased) the Company's comprehensive loss for the period by the amounts shown in the table below. A 10% weakening of the foreign currency against the functional currencies would have had the equal but opposite effect as at May 31, 2023 and February 28, 2023.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (1,948,104 )   (2,699,903 )
Lease liabilities   (548,256 )   (609,553 )
Total foreign currency financial assets and liabilities   11,063,279     15,129,017  
Impact of a 10% strengthening or weakening of foreign exchange rate   1,106,328     1,512,902  

(d) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk as it does not have any liabilities with variable rates.

(e) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company's objective to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it has sufficient liquidity available to meet its liabilities when due. The Company relies on raising debt or equity financing in a timely manner.

The following amounts are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities as at May 31, 2023 and February 28, 2023:

11. Commitments

The Company has commitments primarily for contracts supporting clinical trials. The Company is subject to commitments as follows:

As at May 31, 2023   $  
       
Within one year   3,045,963  
In the second to third years   391,247  
In the fourth to fifth years   77,508  
Total   3,514,718  

As at May 31, 2023 there is an unprovided contingent liability of $2,156,183 in relation to officers and employee bonuses in relation to the financial year ended February 28, 2023. The board approved payment of these bonuses in the event that certain conditions are satisfied. Management's view is that it is unlikely that the conditions will be satisfied to trigger the payment of these bonuses and therefore $nil has been included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at May 31, 2023.
