NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Biotricity
Inc. (formerly MetaSolutions, Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August
29, 2012.
iMedical
Innovations Inc. (“iMedical”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated on July 3, 2014 under the
laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada.
The
Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary iMedical, is engaged in research and development activities within the remote monitoring
segment of preventative care. Our efforts to date have been devoted in building technology that enables access to this
market through the development of a tangible product.
On
February 2, 2016, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with 1061806 BC LTD. (“Callco”), a British Columbia
corporation and wholly owned subsidiary (incorporated on February 2, 2016), 1062024 B.C. LTD., a company existing under the laws
of the Province of British Columbia (“Exchangeco”), iMedical, and the former shareholders of iMedical (the “Exchange
Agreement”), whereby Exchangeco acquired 100% of the outstanding common shares of iMedical, taking into account certain
shares pursuant to the Exchange Agreement. These subsidiaries were solely used for the issuance of exchangeable shares in the
reverse takeover transaction and have no other transactions or balances. After giving effect to this transaction, the Company
acquired all of iMedical’s assets and liabilities and commenced operations through iMedical.
As
a result of the Share Exchange, iMedical is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. This transaction has been accounted for
as a reverse merger. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations reflected in the consolidated financial
statements for the periods prior to February 2, 2016 are those of iMedical and are recorded at the historical cost basis. After
February 2, 2016, the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities of both iMedical and
the Company and the historical operations of both after that date as one entity.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION, MEASUREMENT AND CONSOLIDATION
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and
should be read in conjunction with Biotricity’s audited financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017
and their accompanying notes.
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in United States dollars (“USD”).
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
of financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. Operating results
for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
March 31, 2019. The Company’s fiscal year-end is March 31.
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Liquidity
and Basis of Presentation
The
Company is an emerging growth entity that is in the early stages of commercializing its first product and is concurrently in development
mode, operating a research and development program in order to develop, obtain regulatory approval for, and commercialize other
proposed products. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations, and as at December 31, 2018, has an accumulated
deficit of $33,216,935 and a working capital deficit of $883,731. During the nine months ended December 31, 2018,
the Company launched its first commercial sales program, having already hired an experienced professional in-house sales team.
Management anticipates the Company will improve its liquidity through continued business development and additional equity or
debt capitalization. The Company has developed and continues to pursue sources of funding that management believes if successful
would be sufficient to support the Company’s operating plan and alleviate any substantial doubt as to its ability to meet
its obligations at least for one year from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. As an example
of this, the Company filed a shelf registration statement under which it conducted its first registered direct sale of
shares during December 2017, which raised gross proceeds of $2,475,901. In June 2018, the Company conducted a further registered
direct sale of shares which raised gross proceeds of $500,000. The investor, a private equity fund also entered into agreements
with the Company to commit themselves to purchase up to $25 million in additional shares of the Company at the direction and sole
discretion of the Company, subject to certain conditions (see Note 7 –
Stockholders’ Equity (Deficiency)
).
The
Company’s operating plan is predicated on a variety of assumptions including, but not limited to, the level of product demand,
cost estimates, its ability to continue to raise additional debt and equity financing, the planned repayment dates of outstanding
operating liabilities, and the state of the general economic environment in which the Company operates. There can be no assurance
that these assumptions will prove to be accurate in all material respects, or that the Company will be able to successfully execute
its operating plan. In the absence of additional financing, the Company may have to modify its operating plan to slow down the
pace for development and commercialization of its proposed products.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 606.
The
Bioflux mobile cardiac telemetry device, a wearable device, is worn by patients for a monitoring period up to 30 days. The cardiac
data that the device monitors and collects is curated and analyzed by the Company’s proprietary algorithms and then securely
communicated to a remote monitoring facility for electronic reporting and conveyance to the patient’s prescribing physician
or other certified cardiac medical professional. Revenues earned with respect to this device are comprised of device sales
revenues and technology fee revenues (software as a service). The device, together with its licensed software, is available
for sale to the medical center or physician, who is responsible for the delivery of clinical diagnosis and therapy. The remote
monitoring, data collection and reporting services performed by the technology culminate in a patient study that is generally
billable when it is complete and is issued to the physician. In order to recognize revenue, management considers whether or not
the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of a commercial arrangement exists, and delivery has occurred or services
have been rendered. For sales of devices, which are invoiced directly, additional revenue recognition criteria include that the
price is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured; for revenue that is earned based on customer usage of
the proprietary software to render a patient’s cardiac study, the Company recognizes revenue when the study ends based on
a fixed billing rate. Costs associated with providing the services are recorded as the service is provided regardless of whether
or when revenue is recognized.
Inventory
Inventory
is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined on a weighted average cost basis,
and market being determined as the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company records write-downs of inventory that is
obsolete or in excess of anticipated demand or market value based on consideration of product lifecycle stage, technology trends,
product development plans and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Actual demand may differ from forecasted
demand, and such differences may have a material effect on recorded inventory values. Inventory write-downs are charged to cost
of revenue and establish a new cost basis for the inventory.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Areas involving
significant estimates and assumptions include: allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, deferred income tax assets
and related valuation allowance, accruals and valuation of derivatives, convertible promissory notes, stock options and warrants,
as well as assumptions used by management in its assessment of liquidity. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These
estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which
they become known.
Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
The
Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 260-10 which provides for calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings
per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities
that could share in the earnings of an entity. Diluted earnings per share exclude all potentially dilutive shares if their effect
is anti-dilutive. There were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding as at December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Cash
Cash
includes cash on hand and balances with banks. As at December 31, 2018, bank indebtedness represented outstanding cheques.
Foreign
Currency Translation
The
functional currency of the Company’s Canadian-based subsidiary is the Canadian dollar and the US-based parent is the U.S.
dollar. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency
at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated
using the historical rate on the date of the transaction. All exchange gains or losses arising from translation of these foreign
currency transactions are included in net income (loss) for the period. In translating the financial statements of the Company’s
Canadian subsidiaries from their functional currency into the Company’s reporting currency of United States dollars, balance
sheet accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts
are translated using an average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation,
if any, are included in cumulative other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. The Company has not, to the
date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency
fluctuations.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable consists of amounts due to the Company from medical facilities, which receive reimbursement from institutions and third-party
government and commercial payors and their related patients, as a result of the Company’s normal business activities. Accounts
receivable is reported on the balance sheets net of an estimated allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company establishes an allowance
for doubtful accounts for estimated uncollectible receivables based on historical experience, assessment of specific risk, review
of outstanding invoices, and various assumptions and estimates that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and
recognizes the provision as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. Uncollectible accounts are written off
against the allowance after appropriate collection efforts have been exhausted and when it is deemed that a balance is uncollectible.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
ASC
820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands required disclosure about fair value measurements
of assets and liabilities. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to
transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity
to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes
three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
|
●
|
Level
1 – Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
|
●
|
Level
2 – Valuation based on quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.
|
|
●
|
Level
3 – Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management’s
best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.
|
In
instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy,
the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular
input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
Fair
value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management.
The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term
nature of these instruments or interest rates that are comparable to market rates. These financial instruments include cash, due
to stockholders, accounts receivable, deposits and other receivables, convertible promissory notes, derivative liabilities, and
accounts payable. The Company’s cash and derivative liabilities, which are carried at fair value, are classified as a Level
1 financial instruments. The Company’s bank accounts are maintained with financial institutions of reputable credit, therefore,
bear minimal credit risk.
Operating
Leases
The
Company leases office space and certain office equipment under operating lease agreements. The lease term begins on the date of
initial possession of the leased property for purposes of recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of
the lease. Lease renewal periods are considered on a lease-by-lease basis and are generally not included in the initial lease
term.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. The Company provides for federal and provincial income taxes payable,
as well as for those deferred because of the timing differences between reporting income and expenses for financial statement
purposes versus tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable
to differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for
income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recoverable or settled. The effect of a change in
tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period of the change. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary,
to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Research
and Development
Research
and development costs, which relate primarily to product and software development, are charged to operations as incurred. Under
certain research and development arrangements with third parties, the Company may be required to make payments that are contingent
on the achievement of specific developmental, regulatory and/or commercial milestones. Before a product receives regulatory approval,
milestone payments made to third parties are expensed when the milestone is achieved
.
Milestone payments made to third
parties after regulatory approval is received are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the approved product.
Stock
Based Compensation
The
Company accounts for share-based payments in accordance with the provision of ASC 718, which requires that all share-based payments
issued to acquire goods or services, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the statement of operations
based on their fair values, net of estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and
revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Compensation expense related to
share-based awards is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.
The
Company accounts for stock based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services, as prescribed by ASC 718-10, at either
the fair value of the services rendered or the instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more readily determinable,
using the guidelines in ASC 505-50. The Company issues compensatory shares for services including, but not limited to, executive,
management, accounting, operations, corporate communication, financial and administrative consulting services.
Convertible
Notes Payable and Derivative Instruments
The
Company has adopted the provisions of ASU 2017-11, which addresses the accounting for (I) certain financial instruments with down
round features and (II) replacement of the indefinite deferral for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic
entities and certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests with a scope exception. The main provisions of Part I of
ASU 2017-11 “change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with
down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments,
a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s
own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding
equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability
at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments,
the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it
is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS.”
Under previous US GAAP, warrants with a down round feature are not being considered indexed to the entity’s own stock, which
results in classification of the warrant as a derivative liability. Under ASU 2017-11, the down round feature qualifies for a
scope exception from derivative treatment. ASU 2017-11 is effective for public companies as of December 15, 2018 and interim periods
within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, with adjustments reflected as of
the beginning of the fiscal year. The Company has issued financial instruments with down round features. The Company opted to
adopt ASU 2017-11 in its three-month interim period ended December 31, 2017, which is effective from April 1, 2017, with adjustments
reflected in the accumulated deficit of stockholders’ deficiency as of April 1, 2017. Please refer to Note 6.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements”,
which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The
standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements, and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company will be evaluating the impact this standard will
have on the Company’s financial statements.
In
June 2018, the FASB issued an accounting pronouncement (FASB ASU 2018-07) to expand the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation -
Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The pronouncement
is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early
adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effects of this pronouncement on the
consolidated financial statements, including potential early adoption.
On
April 1, 2018, the Company adopted the accounting pronouncement issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
to clarify existing guidance on revenue recognition. This guidance includes the required steps to achieve the core principle that
a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration
to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this pronouncement on
a modified retrospective basis.
On
January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the accounting pronouncement issued by the FASB to clarify how entities should present restricted
cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. This guidance requires entities to show changes in the total
of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the combined statement of cash flows. This guidance was adopted on a retrospective
basis, and such adoption did not have a material impact on combined financial position and/or results of operations.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance revises the accounting related to leases by
requiring lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases. The new lease guidance also simplifies
the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES
Prior
to April 1, 2016, pursuant to a term sheet offering of up to $2,000,000, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to various
accredited investors amounting to $1,368,978 in face value. These notes had a maturity date of 24 months and carried an annual
interest rate of 11%. The note holders had the right to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of the note, and
accrued interest, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock any time until the note was fully paid. The notes
had a conversion price initially set at $1.78. Upon any future financings completed by the Company, the conversion price was to
reset to 75% of the future financing pricing. These notes did not contain prepayment penalties upon redemption. These notes were
secured by all of the present and after acquired property of the Company. However, the Company could force conversion of these
notes, if during the term of the agreement, the Company completed a public listing and the common share price exceeded the conversion
price for at least 20 consecutive trading days. At the closing of the notes, the Company paid cash (7%) and issued
warrants (7% of the number of common shares into which the notes may be converted) to a broker. The broker received 3% in cash
and warrants for those investors introduced by the Company. The warrants had a term of 24 months and a similar reset provision
based on future financings.
Pursuant
to the conversion provisions, in August 2016, promissory notes in the aggregate face value of $1,368,978 were converted into 912,652
shares of common stock as detailed below. The fair value of the common shares was $2,907,912 and $1,538,934 was allocated to the
related derivative liabilities (see note 6) and the balance to the carrying value of the notes.

In
March 2016, the Company commenced a bridge offering of up to an aggregate of $2,500,000 of convertible promissory notes. Up to
March 31, 2017, the Company issued, to various investors, a new series of convertible notes (“Bridge Notes”) in the
aggregate face value of $2,455,000 (December 31, 2016 – $2,230,000). The Bridge Notes had a maturity date of 12 months from
issuance and carried an annual interest rate of 10%. The Bridge Notes principal and all outstanding accrued interest were convertible
into common stock based on the average of the lowest 3 trading days volume weighted average price over the last 10 trading days
plus an embedded warrant at maturity. However, all the outstanding principal and accrued interest would convert into units/securities
upon the consummation of a qualified financing, based upon the lesser of: (i) $1.65 per units/securities and (ii) the quotient
obtained by dividing (x) the balance on the forced conversion date multiplied by 1.20 by (y) the actual price per unit/security
in the qualified financing. Upon the maturity date of the notes, the Company also has an obligation to issue warrants exercisable
into a number of shares of the Company securities equal to (i) in the case of a qualified financing, the number of shares issued
upon conversion of the note and (ii) in all other cases, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the
quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding balance by 2.00.
In
connection with the Bridge Notes offering, the accreted value of this offering was as follows as at March 31, 2017:

DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
The
Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2017-11 provided a change to the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial
instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be
classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing
whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. During the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company adopted
the provisions of ASU 2017-11 to account for the down round features of its warrants issued with its private placements effective
April 1, 2017. The Company used a modified retrospective approach to adoption, which does not restate its financial statements
as at the prior year end, March 31, 2017. Adoption is effective as of April 1, 2017, the beginning of the Company’s current
fiscal year. The cumulative effect of this accounting standard update adjusted accumulated deficit as of April 1, 2017 by $483,524,
with a corresponding adjustment to derivative liabilities:

In
connection with the sale of debt or equity instruments, the Company may sell options or warrants to purchase its common stock.
In certain circumstances, these options or warrants have previously been classified as derivative liabilities, rather than as
equity. Additionally, the debt or equity instruments may contain embedded derivative instruments, which in certain circumstances
may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument liability.
Previously,
the Company’s derivative instrument liabilities were re-valued at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the
fair value of the derivative liability recorded as charges or credits to income in the period in which the changes occurred. For
options, warrants and bifurcated embedded derivative features that were accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, the
Company estimated fair value using either quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics or other
valuation techniques. The valuation techniques require assumptions related to the remaining term of the instruments and risk-free
rates of return, our current common stock price and expected dividend yield, and the expected volatility of our common stock price
over the life of the option. The details of derivative liabilities (pre and post adoption of ASU 2017-11) were as follows:

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIENCY)
a)
Authorized stock
As
at December 31, 2018, the Company is authorized to issue 125,000,000 (March 31, 2018 – 125,000,000) shares of common stock
($0.001 par value) and 10,000,000 (March 31, 2018 – 10,000,000) shares of preferred stock ($0.001 par value).
At
December 31, 2018, there were 29,534,343 (March 31, 2018 – 23,713,602) shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
Additionally, at December 31, 2018, there were 4,868,464 (March 31, 2018 – 8,143,937) outstanding exchangeable shares. There
is currently one share of the Special Voting Preferred Stock issued and outstanding held by one holder of record, which is the
Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement.
b)
Exchange Agreement
As
initially described in Note 1 above, on February 2, 2016:
●
|
The
Company issued approximately 1.197 shares of its common stock in exchange for each common share of iMedical held by the iMedical
shareholders who in general terms, are not residents of Canada (for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada). Accordingly,
the Company issued 13,376,947 shares;
|
●
|
Shareholders
of iMedical who in general terms, are Canadian residents (for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) received approximately
1.197 Exchangeable Shares in the capital of Exchangeco in exchange for each common share of iMedical held. Accordingly, the
Company issued 9,123,031 Exchangeable Shares;
|
●
|
Each
outstanding option to purchase common shares in iMedical (whether vested or unvested) was exchanged, without any further action
or consideration on the part of the holder of such option, for approximately 1.197 economically equivalent replacement options
with an inverse adjustment to the exercise price of the replacement option to reflect the exchange ratio of approximately
1.197:1;
|
●
|
Each
outstanding warrant to purchase common shares in iMedical was adjusted, in accordance with the terms thereof, such that it
entitles the holder to receive approximately 1.197 shares of the common stock of the Company for each warrant, with an inverse
adjustment to the exercise price of the warrants to reflect the exchange ratio of approximately 1.197:1
|
●
|
Each
outstanding advisor warrant to purchase common shares in iMedical was adjusted, in accordance with the terms thereof, such
that it entitles the holder to receive approximately 1.197 shares of the common stock of the Company for each advisor warrant,
with an inverse adjustment to the exercise price of the Advisor Warrants to reflect the exchange ratio of approximately 1.197:1;
and
|
●
|
The
outstanding 11% secured convertible promissory notes of iMedical were adjusted, in accordance with the adjustment provisions
thereof, as and from closing, so as to permit the holders to convert (and in some circumstances permit the Company to force
the conversion of) the convertible promissory notes into shares of the common stock of the Company at a 25% discount to purchase
price per share in Biotricity’s next offering.
|
Issuance
of common stock, exchangeable shares and cancellation of shares in connection with the reverse takeover transaction as explained
above represents recapitalization of capital retroactively adjusting the accounting acquirer’s legal capital to reflect
the legal capital of the accounting acquiree.
During
the nine months ended December 31, 2018, shareholders holding 3,275,478 exchangeable shares with voting rights and other attributes
corresponding to the Company’s common stock (but with the additional right to cashlessly exchange on a one-for-one basis
into common stock) retracted and exchanged their exchangeable shares for the corresponding number of shares of common stock.
c)
Share issuances
Share
issuances during the year ended March 31, 2018
During
the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold to accredited investors a further total of 1,282,767 Units, (each Unit consisting
of one share of common stock one-half of one warrant to purchase a share of common stock) for gross proceeds of $2,244,845 (net
proceeds of $1,926,780).
During
the year ended March 31, 2018, prior to closing its private placement offering on or about July 31, 2017, the Company sold to
accredited investors a further total of 263,188 Units for gross proceeds of $460,579 (net proceeds of $413,629). Cash issuance
costs of $46,950 have been adjusted against additional paid in capital. In connection with this private placement, the Company
also issued 21,055 broker warrants and 131,594 warrants to investors (refer to warrant issuances).
During
the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company completed a registered offering, which raised net proceeds of $2,520,561 million through
the issuance of 450,164 common shares.
Cash
issuance costs of $320,355 relating to the above private placements have been adjusted against additional paid in capital. In
connection with the above private placements and conversion of notes as detailed in Note 5, the Company issued broker warrants
and warrants to investors having fair values of $385,635 and $3,183,614, respectively, which were initially classified as derivative
liabilities with corresponding debit to additional paid in capital.
The
raising of a total of $3,000,000 in aggregate proceeds from the common share offering would qualify that offering as a Qualified
Financing that would allow the Company, at its discretion, to convert the principal amount of the Bridge Notes (discussed in Note
5), along with accrued interest thereon, into units of the common share offering. Conversion would be based upon the price that
is the lesser of: (i) $1.60 per share and (ii) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Outstanding Balance on the conversion
date multiplied by 1.20 by (y) the actual price per share in the Qualified Financing. The notes and the warrants were further
subject to a “most-favored nation” clause in the event the Company, prior to maturity of the notes, consummates a
financing that is not a Qualified Financing. Upon completion of a Qualified Financing, in connection with the conversion of the
Bridge Notes, the Company would also pay the Placement Agent up to 8% in cashless broker warrants with an exercise price of $3.00
and an expiry date of two years from the date of issuance. Based on achieving this milestone, on May 31, 2017, the Company converted
Bridge Notes with the aggregate principal amount of $2,455,000 plus accrued interest thereon, into a further 1,823,020 Units of
its common share offering (each of which corresponded to one share and half of one warrant).
During
the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 527,941 shares of common stock and has recognized its obligation
to issue a further 20,250 shares of common stock (see paragraph d, below), to various consultants. The fair value of these shares
amounted to $1,908,481 were recognized as general and administrative and research and development expenses, as applicable, in
the statement of operations, with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in-capital.
During
the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company also issued an aggregate of 252,798 shares of its common stock upon exercise of warrants
and received $428,311 of exercise cash proceeds. In addition, during this year, the Company issued 58,795 shares of common stock
to brokers who opted to perform cashless exercise of their 108,799 warrants. See paragraph e, below
Share
issuances during the nine months ended December 31, 2018
During
the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a private equity investment fund (the “Investor”)
to establish a committed equity purchase facility, which allows the Company, at its sole option, subject to certain conditions,
to direct the Investor to make multiple common share purchases that in aggregate can be up to $25 million (the “Aggregate
Amount”) during the term of the facility, which will be up to 36 months. As part of the initial closing of this transaction,
the Investor purchased 128,750 shares of common stock of the Company, at a price of $4,00 per share, for gross proceeds of $515,000
and paid the Investor $15,000 in issuance costs. As compensation for providing this equity purchase facility, the Company also
issued to the Investor an additional 121,344 shares (representing a dollar value equal to 1.6% of the aggregate amount, or $400,000,
at a price per share that was equal to the average of the closing sale prices of the common shares for the ten (10) consecutive
business days prior to the closing date of the transaction). The size and purchase price for each future drawdown under this agreement
is governed by the purchase facilities agreement and is predicated on trading volumes as well as the average trading and closing
prices of the common stock on the day of drawdown and the prior ten (10) trading days, such that the purchase price is always
fixed and know at the time the Company elects to sell shares to the Investor. During the nine months ended December 31, 2018,
the Company sold a further 1,694,760 shares under this facility and raised aggregate gross proceeds of $2,524,480.
During
the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 372,999 shares of common stock to various advisors,
contractors and consultants, including 62,500 shares of common stock to non-executive directors of its Board as part of their
annual compensation program. Not including 14,000 shares, that were accounted for as common shares to be issued in relation to
issuance obligations as at March 31, 2018, the fair value of the remaining 358,999 shares amounted to $875,879 and has
been expensed to general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, with a corresponding
credit to additional paid-in-capital.
During
the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued 164,574 shares of common stock upon the exercise of options of its
legacy 2015 equity incentive plan; during the same period the Company also issued 62,838 shares of its common stock upon exercise
of warrants and received $50,835 of exercise cash proceeds.
d)
Shares to be issued
Common
stock to be issued of 211,666 shares ($147,350) is comprised of:
●
|
152,916
shares of common stock issued to consultants in connection with services rendered during the quarter with a fair value of
$73,400 and 40,000 shares of common stock issued to non-executive directors of the Company with a fair value of $19,200; and
|
●
|
18,750
shares of common stock to be issued to a consultant, which represents an obligation recognized in prior periods, with a fair
value of $54,750.
|
The
fair value of these shares was determined by using the market price of the common stock as at the date of issuance obligation.
As disclosed in Note 10 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, 186,666 of the 211,666 shares were subsequently
issued.
e)
Warrant issuances
Warrant
issuances during the year ended March 31, 2018
During
December 2017, 112,798 broker warrants were exercised at exercises price of between $1.04 and $1.49, such that the Company received
cash proceeds of $124,718. Also during December 2017, 140,000 consultant warrants were exercised at exercise prices between $2.00
and 2.58, for cash proceeds to the Company of $303,200.
During
March 2018, 108,799 broker warrants were exercised into 58,795 common shares through the cashless exercise. The holder may, in
its sole discretion, exercise all or any part of this warrant in a “cashless” or “net-issue” (or cashless)
exercise and receive a number of shares calculated by using the following formula: X = Y (A - B)/A with: X = the number of shares
to be issued to the holder Y = the number of shares with respect to which the warrant is being exercised A = the fair value per
share of common stock on the date of exercise of the warrant B = the then-current exercise price of the warrant.
Warrant
issuances during the nine months ended December 31, 2018
During
the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued 508,333 warrants as compensation for advisor and consultant services,
which were fair valued at $376,136 and expensed in general and administrative expenses, with a corresponding credit to additional
paid in capital. Their fair value has been estimated using a multi-nomial lattice model with an expected life of 3 years, a risk
free rate ranging from 2.13% to 2.81%, stock price of $0.48 to $4.15 and expected volatility of 97.8% to 138.27%.

Equity Incentive Plan
On
March 30, 2015, iMedical approved its Directors, Officers and Employees Stock Option Plan, under which it authorized and issued
3,000,000 options. This plan was established to enable the iMedical to attract and retain the services of highly qualified and
experience directors, officers, employees and consultants and to give such person an interest in the success of the Company. This
is a legacy option plan established and utilized prior to the Company’s reorganization (see note
7b) Exchange Agreement
,
above). No other grants will be made under this plan. As of March 31, 2018, there were no outstanding vested options and 137,500
unvested options at an exercise price of $.0001 under this plan. These legacy options represented the right to purchase shares
of the Company’s common stock using the same exchange ratio of approximately 1.1969:1; thus there were 164,590 (35,907 had
been cancelled) adjusted unvested options as at March 31, 2018. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2018 the remaining
164,590 outstanding options vested and were exercised.

The
fair value of options at the issuance date were determined at $2,257,953 which were fully expensed during the twelve months ended
December 31, 2015 based on vesting period and were included in general and administrative expenses with corresponding credit to
additional paid-in-capital. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, 3,390,503 (2,832,500 Pre-exchange Agreement) options
were exercised by those employees who met the vesting conditions; 50% of the grants either vest immediately or at the time of
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) filing date and 50% will vest upon Liquidity Trigger. Liquidity Trigger means the day
on which the board of directors resolve in favor of i) the Company is able to raise a certain level of financing; ii) a reverse
takeover transaction that results in the Company being a reporting issuer, and iii) initial public offering that results in the
Company being a reporting issuer.
2016
Equity Incentive Plan
On
February 2, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company approved 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The purpose
of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company and its stockholders by providing an incentive to attract, retain and reward
persons performing services for the Company and by motivating such persons to contribute to the growth and profitability of the
Company. The Plan seeks to achieve this purpose by providing for awards in the form of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted
stock purchase rights, restricted stock bonuses, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and other stock-based
awards.
The
Plan shall continue in effect until its termination by the board of directors or committee formed by the board; provided, however,
that all awards shall be granted, if at all, on or before the day immediately preceding the tenth (10th) anniversary of the effective
date. The maximum number of shares of stock that may be issued under the Plan shall be equal to 3,750,000 shares; provided that
