1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Description of Business

LexaGene Holdings Inc. together with its subsidiaries, (collectively the “Company” or “LexaGene”) was incorporated on April 26, 2007, under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada. The head office and the principal address is located at 500 Cummings Ctr., Suite 4550, Beverly, Massachusetts, USA, 01915. The records office of the Company is located at 1055 West Georgia Street, Suite 1500, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 4N7. The Company’s common shares are publicly listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the trading symbol “LXG” and quoted on the OTCQB under the symbol “LXXGF”.

The principal business of the Company is to research, develop and commercialize automated genetic analyzer devices in veterinary, clinical and life science industries.

Liquidity and Going Concern

At November 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $464,131, an accumulated deficit of $(50,339,236), and has experienced cash outflows from operating activities over the past years. The Company’s operations are dependent on obtaining additional financing to further develop its genetic analyzer, the MiQLab® System, and generating cash flow from operations in the future.

Management’s plans to meet the Company’s current and future obligations are to raise capital in equity and private debt markets, private placements, rely on the financial support of its shareholders and related parties as well as to further expand commercial sales of the MiQLab System. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising that additional capital or that such capital, if available, will be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be compelled to reduce the scope of its operations and planned capital expenditures.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact operations. The Company has established protocols for continued manufacturing, distribution and servicing of its products with safe social distancing and personal protective equipment measures and for remote work for certain employees not essential to on-site operations. To date, these measures have been mostly successful but may not continue to function should the pandemic escalate and impact personnel. In 2021, the Company’s veterinary customers restricted the sales team’s access to their facilities and as a result, the Company had significantly reduced its sales and marketing staffing levels in an effort to reduce expenses. Although the Company did not see any material impact to accounts receivable during the period ended November 30, 2022, the Company’s exposure may increase if its customers continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and variants of the virus. Customers may reduce their purchases of products, depending on their needs and cash flow, which could negatively impact revenue. The ability of the Company’s shipping carriers to deliver products to customers may be disrupted. The Company has reviewed its suppliers and quantities of key materials and believes that it has sufficient stocks and, in some cases, have alternate sources of critical materials including personal protective equipment should the supply chains become disrupted, although raw materials and plastics for the manufacturing of reagents and consumables are in high demand, and interruptions in supply are difficult to predict.

The Company believes that its cash of $464,131 as of November 30, 2022 will not be sufficient to fund its current operating plan at least one year from issuance of these condensed financial statements unless additional funds are raised. Certain elements of our operating plan cannot be considered probable.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOVEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021

(expressed in US dollars)

(Unaudited)

These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management has concluded the likelihood that its plan to successfully obtain sufficient funding from one or more of these sources or adequately reduce expenditures, while reasonably possible, is less than probable. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an emerging growth company (“EGC”), as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”). Under section 107(b) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), EGCs can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, and as a result of this election, the condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) standards’ effective dates. The Company can elect to early adopt, if permitted by the accounting standard. The Company may take advantage of this accommodation up until the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date on which it first sells common equity securities pursuant to a registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act, or such earlier time that it is no longer an EGC.

Smaller Reporting Company Status

The Company is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 12b-2. As a result, the Company is eligible to take advantage of certain reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies including, but not limited to, not being subject to the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the aggregate worldwide market value of its common shares held by non-affiliates equaled or exceeded $250 million as of the prior June 30th, or (2) its annual revenues equaled or exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the aggregate worldwide market value of its common shares held by non-affiliates equaled or exceeded $700 million as of the prior June 30th.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial statements. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of November 30, 2022, and for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, and information contained within the notes to these condensed consolidated financial statements, are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements and in management's opinion contain all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of November 30, 2022, results of operations for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, statement of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 and its cash flows for the nine months ended November 31, 2022 and 2021.

(Unaudited)

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 for the year ended February 28, 2022. The results for the nine months ended November 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or any interim period.

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, include the accounts of the Company, the Company’s wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary Bionomics Diagnostics Inc. (“BDI”) and the Company’s wholly-owned US subsidiary LexaGene, Inc. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of LexaGene Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries listed as follows:


		% Ownership Interest
Name	Country of Incorporation	2022		2021
Bionomics Diagnostics Inc.	Canada	100	%	100	%
LexaGene, Inc.	United States of America	100	%	100	%

Foreign Currency

These condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in US dollars (“USD”) and have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The functional currency of the Company and its Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar (“CAD”), and the USD for the Company’s US subsidiary.

The Company’s presentation currency is the USD which aligns the Company’s presentation currency with the functional currency of its operations in the United States. Under this method, the Canadian entities are translated to USD.

Translation gains and losses resulting from the consolidation of operations in Canada are recognized in other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, and in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of shareholders’ equity on the consolidated statement of changes in equity.

Foreign exchange rates used for currency translation in these consolidated financial statements include:


Period end dates	USD to CAD	CAD to USD
November 30,2022	1.3508	0.7403
February 28, 2022	1.2698	0.7875


Period averages	USD to CAD	CAD to USD
Period ended November 30, 2022	1.3023	0.7685
Period ended November 30, 2021	1.2470	0.8021

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis, including those related to accounts receivable; inventory valuation; revenue recognition, share-based compensation. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Significant judgments relate to the recognition of deferred income taxes, treatment of development costs, recoverability of the carrying value of intangible assets, and going concern.

Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended November 30, 2022 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2022.

Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment, which is the business of developing and, launching commercially its diagnostic products.

Geographic Information

All sales to date were made in the United States of America.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable consists of amounts due from product sales to commercial customers and goods and services tax (“GST”) receivable from the government of Canada. At each reporting period, management reviews historical loss information, characteristics of our customers, our credit practices and the economic conditions, along with all outstanding balances to determine if the facts and circumstances indicate the need for a credit loss allowance. Receivables are written off against these allowances in the period they are determined to be uncollectible. The Company does not require collateral and did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts as of November 30, 2022 and February 28, 2022.

Inventories

Raw materials, work in process, and finished goods inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost being determined using a first-in-first-out costing (“FIFO”) method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. At the end of each reporting period, management reviews inventory and determines whether a write-down is required based on the assumptions about future demand of the Company’s products, estimated future sales, remaining shelf life and market conditions.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company is required to disclose information on all assets and liabilities reported at fair value that enables an assessment of the inputs used in determining the reported fair values. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), establishes a hierarchy of inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the observable inputs be used when available.

Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy applies only to the valuation inputs used in determining the reported fair value of the investments and is not a measure of the investment credit quality. The hierarchy defines three levels of valuation inputs:

Level 1 — Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all observable inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

LEXAGENE HOLDINGS INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOVEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021

(expressed in US dollars)

(Unaudited)

Level 3 — Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable, including assumptions developed by the Company.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes valuation inputs based on the observable nature of those inputs. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability.

For certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and convertible note, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values as of November 30, 2022 and February 28, 2022 because of their short-term nature.

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on its financial assets when necessary. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting period to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the respective financial instruments. The Company did not recognize impairment losses during the periods ended November 30, 2022 and 2021.

The Company has no hedging arrangements and does not apply hedge accounting.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are initially recognized at acquisition cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Company. Property and equipment are subsequently measured using the cost model, cost less amortization and impairment. The costs of additions and improvements are capitalized, and the costs of maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis to amortize the cost over the estimated useful life of the property and equipment as follows:


Computer equipment		3 years;
Furniture and fixtures		7 years;
Lab equipment		5 to 7 years;
Laboratory and leasehold improvements		Remaining lease term.

Significant improvements that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance which do not extend the useful lives of assets are expensed as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gains or losses are recognized.

Impairment of Non-Financial Assets

The Company reviews intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment at least annually and reviews all intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to depreciation and amortization, as well as indefinite lived intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Company had originally estimated. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of each asset or asset group to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset or asset group is expected to generate over their remaining lives. If the asset or asset group is considered to be impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset or asset group. If the useful life is shorter than originally estimated, the Company amortizes the remaining carrying value over the new shorter useful life. There were no impairment losses recognized for the periods ended November 30, 2022 and 2021.

Leases

At the inception of a contract, LexaGene assesses whether the arrangement may contain a lease. The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability for all arrangements in which it is a lessee, except for leases with a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases). Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term from the commencement date of the lease over the shorter of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the future lease payments from the commencement date of the lease to the end of the lease term. The lease term includes the period of any lease extension that in management’s assessment is reasonably certain to be exercised by the Company. The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using effective interest method.

The Company remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment to the related right-of-use asset) whenever there is a change to the lease terms or a modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease. As changes in LexaGene’s lease payments are related to changes in the consumer price index, the lease liability is not remeasured due to the changes in lease payments unless the liability is remeasured for another reason. The excess of current lease payments over the lease payments at commencement date is recognized as rent expense.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers using the five-step model described below:

●

Identify contract with customer;

●

Identify performance obligations;

●

Determine transaction price;

●

Allocate transaction price to performance obligations;

●

Recognize revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.

Performance obligations are considered satisfied when control of the products has transferred to the customer, and the customer has full discretion over the use of the products, generally upon delivery. Delivery occurs at a point in time when the products have been shipped to the specific location requested by the customer, the customer takes control of the goods at a designated warehouse, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer, and either the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales contract, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Company has objective evidence that all criteria for acceptance have been satisfied. As at the end of the reporting period, there are no unfulfilled performance obligations.

The Company elected to use a practical expedient to expense sales commissions as they are incurred because the amortization period would have been less than one year. The Company’s products are sold without any subsequent pricing adjustments or contingencies related to occurrence or non-occurrence of future events. Accordingly, there has been no variable consideration assessment. LexaGene’s sales require an advance payment or payment within 30 to 60 days, which is why there is no financing component associated with sales.

Accounts receivable are recognized when the goods are controlled by the customer at the point in time that the consideration is unconditional, and only the passage of time is required before payment is due. Any advance payments are recorded as a liability called deferred revenue.

Product revenue is generated by the sale of instruments and consumable diagnostic tests predominantly through the Company’s direct sales force in the United States. The Company does not offer product return or exchange rights (other than those relating to defective goods under warranty) or price protection allowances to its customers.

Revenue from the sale of consumable diagnostic tests (under instrument purchase agreements) is generally recognized upon shipment.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by type of products and services, as it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The following table disaggregates total revenue by major source:


	Three Months Ended November,				Nine Months Ended November,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Product revenue
Instruments and consumables	$	42,912	$	48,309	$	117,886	$	88,934
Total revenue	$	42,912	$	48,309	$	117,886	$	88,934

Revenue earned during the periods ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 was derived from the customers located in the United States.

Warranty Obligations

The Company provides for the estimated cost of standard product warranties for a period of twelve months from installation date. Due to limited sales history, warranty obligation is based on the Company’s best estimate of potential repair costs and is recognized at the time of revenue recognition. Accrual for warranty obligations is included in accrued and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Extended warranty agreements are considered service contracts.

Contract-Related Balances

The Company has current contract liabilities (deferred revenue) in the amount of $282 as of November 30, 2022 (February 28, 2022 - $23,560). Amount recognized in revenue during the nine months period ended November 30, 2022 in connection with the contract liabilities was $23,278.

Research and Development Costs

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s product candidates are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred in performing research and development activities, costs associated with the enhancements of developed products and include salaries and benefits, stock compensation, research-related facility and overhead costs, laboratory supplies, equipment and contract services.

Stock-Based Compensation and Value of Warrants

The Company issues stock-based awards to employees, generally in the form of stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The Company accounts for stock-based awards in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, or ASC 718. ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, restricted stock units, and modifications to existing stock options, to be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss based on their grant date fair values. The fair value of awards is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which generally is the same as the vesting period. The number of RSUs and options expected to vest is viewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

The Company estimates the fair value of the stock-based awards to employees using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including (a) the expected volatility of the stock, (b) the expected term of the award, (c) the risk-free interest rate and (d) expected dividends. The Company estimates expected volatility based on the historical volatility of the stock using the daily closing prices during the equivalent period of the calculated expected term of its stock-based awards. Expected life is estimated on the actual exercise and expiries of options. Risk-free rate is based on the Bank of Canada interest rate with a term that represents expected life of the options at grant date. The Company has not paid, and does not anticipate paying, cash dividends on shares of common stock; therefore, the expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero.

These assumptions used to determine stock compensation expense represent the Company’s best estimates, but the estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses significantly different assumptions or estimates, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different. Refer to Note 10 for further details on the Company’s share-based compensation plan.

The fair value of warrants issued as units in private placements is estimated using the relative fair value method whereby the value of the warrants issued is estimated using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model and the value of the shares issued is based on the market price at the time of issuance. Total private placement proceeds are then allocated to shares and warrants based on their relative fair values.

Income Taxes

The Company applies ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions for which reserves would be required. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, in income tax expense.

Income tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income (loss).

Current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes payable or receivable on taxable income or loss for the current period and any adjustment to income taxes payable in respect of previous periods.

Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period using tax rates enacted at year-end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regard to previous years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deferred tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled.

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. The Company realizes deferred income tax assets to the extent that it is more likely than not to be realized and provides a valuation allowance against any excess that may not be realized.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company uses the treasury stock method to compute the dilutive effect of options, warrants and similar instruments. Under this method the dilutive effect on earnings per share is calculated presuming the exercise of outstanding options, warrants and similar instruments. It assumes that the proceeds of such exercise would be used to repurchase common shares at the average market price during the period. However, the calculation of diluted loss per share excludes the effects of various conversions and exercise of options and warrants that would be antidilutive. Shares held in escrow, other than where their release is subject to the passage of time, are not included in the calculation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

As the Company incurred losses since inception, basic and diluted loss per share presented are the same. Securities that may potentially dilute earnings per share in the future that were not included in the calculation are as follows as of November 30, 2022:


Warrants		26,352,247
Stock Options¹		3,490,750
Restricted Share Units		2,222,027

Recent Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

Effective September 1, 2022, the Company elected to adopt ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) using the full retrospective method. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating the cash conversion and the beneficial conversion feature. As a result of the adoption, the Company recognized the total value of the convertible note payable as a liability and did not recognize a discount related to the beneficial conversion feature. The adoption of the standard did not have an impact on prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options (“ASU 2021-04”). The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05—Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments. ASU is intended to improve lessor accounting for certain leases with variable payments. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government Assistance, to require entities to disclose information about certain types of government assistance they receive, including cash grants and tax credits. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Issued, To Be Adopted

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2021-08 requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. Under this approach, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the contracts as compared to the previous approach of measuring contract assets and contract liabilities at fair value. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. ASU 2022-03 clarifies the guidance in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, contractual sale restrictions of equity securities by differentiating between two types of restrictions:

●

Restrictions being a characteristic of the equity security (e.g. unregistered securities), which should be included in the calculation of the fair value of the security

●

Restrictions being a characteristic of the holder of the security, which should not be included in the calculation of the fair value of the security.

The amendments also clarify that an entity cannot recognize a contractual sale restriction as a separate unit of account (i.e. as a contra-asset or separate liability); and require new disclosures for all entities with equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. ASU 2022-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. Management is still assessing the impact of the adoption of the standard on the Company’s financial statements.

3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable consists of the following:


	November 30, 2022		February 28, 2022
Accounts receivable	$	51,643	$	14,375
Less: loss allowance		—		—
Total accounts receivable, net	$	51,643	$	14,375

The Company assesses, on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with its assets carried at fair value. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables only, the Company applies the approach permitted by ASU 2016-13, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognized from initial recognition of the receivables. The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on its financial assets when necessary. The amount of expected credit losses is updated at each reporting period to reflect changes in credit risk since initial recognition of the respective financial instruments. The Company did not recognize impairment losses during the period ended November 30, 2022 or the year ended February 28, 2022. Trade receivables are non-interest bearing and are on 30- to 60-day terms.

The ageing analysis of trade receivables is as follows:


	November 30, 2022		February 28, 2022
Amounts Past Due:

8. CREDIT AGREEMENTS

Convertible Note Payable

On November 1, 2022, the Company issued a secured convertible note payable (the “Note”) to Meridian LGH Holdings 2, LLC, (the “Lender”) an affiliate of an insider of the Company, in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1,600,000. The Note matures on March 1, 2023 and has an interest rate of 12%, unless an event of default has occurred and is continuing, at which time at the election of the Meridian LGH Holdings, interest would accrue at a rate equal to the lesser of 16% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. The Note contains customary events of default, which accelerate the maturity date of the Note. The Note also contains an accelerated maturity clause if the Company obtains equity financing of not less than $5,000,000, completes a merger, an amalgamation or a sale of all or substantially all assets of the Company.

The Note is convertible in full or in part at any time at the discretion of Meridian LGH Holdings 2, LLC, into common shares of the Company at the rate of $0.17 (CAD$0.23) per share. Accrued interest is converted at the last closing price of the Company’s Shares on the TSX-V on the day prior to issuing a news release announcing the conversion. The Note is collateralized by the assets of the Company and is guaranteed by the subsidiaries of the Company.

The Company accounted for the Note in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). After assessment of the Note, no embedded features requiring bifurcation from the debt host contract were identified.

As of November 30, 2022, the Company received a total of $900,000 from the Lender. The Company paid $67,564 in issuance costs related to the debenture, which were recorded as a reduction of the balance of the Note. Debt issuance costs are being amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the Note, which matures on March 1, 2023.

As of November 30, 2022, the net carrying value of the Note is as follows:


	November 30, 2022
Principal	$	900,000
Unamortized debt issuance costs		(54,498)
Convertible note payable, net	$	845,502

The Company recognized Interest expense recorded under the Note was $5,787 for the three and nine-month periods ended November 30, 2022. As of January 17, 2023, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Note.

9. EQUITY

As of November 30, 2022, the Company’s share capital consists of issued and outstanding shares of Common Shares.

Common Shares

As of November 30, 2022, the Company was authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares, which have no par value.

Dividend Rights – Holders of common shares are entitled to receive dividends out of the assets available for the payment of dividends at such times and in such amount and form as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time, on the following basis, and otherwise without preference or distinction between the common shares. The Company is permitted to pay dividends unless there are reasonable grounds for believing that the Company is insolvent or the payment of the dividend would render the Company insolvent.

Voting Rights – Holders of common shares shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at all meetings of shareholders of the Company except a meeting at which only the holders of another class or series of shares is entitled to vote. Each common share shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote at each such meeting.

Liquidation Rights – Holders of common shares will be entitled to receive all of the Company’s assets remaining after payment of all debts and other liabilities.

Share Offering Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments and meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding. For issued warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Any change in fair value of the warrants is recognized in the Company’s statements of operations.

In February 2022, the Company issued 18,500,000 units at a price of CAD$0.35 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $4,995,000 (CAD$6,475,000). Each unit consists of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable into one common share of the Company at the price of CAD$0.45 (approximately $0.36) per share for a period of 36 months. The value of the warrants of $1,139,791 was calculated using Black- Scholes Model and relative fair value method using the following assumptions: annualized volatility – 80%; risk-free rate – 1.35%; expected life – 1.58 years; expected dividend rate – 0%.

On October 27, 2022, the Company modified 7,776,893 warrants by extending their term by one month and reducing their exercise price from CAD$0.75 to CAD$0.23. This resulted in an amount of $340,385 being recognized as an additional value related to the warrants. The value was calculated using the Black-Scholes Model with the following assumptions: annualized volatility – 278%; risk-free rate – 3.85%; expected life – 0.08 years; expected dividend rate – 0%.

Stock options

Stock options vest over a prescribed service period and are approved by the Board of Directors on an award-by-award basis. Options have a prescribed service period generally lasting up to ten years, with certain options vesting immediately upon issuance. Upon the exercise of any stock options, the Company issues shares to the award holder from the pool of authorized but unissued common shares.

Each Option is exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of CAD$0.20 per Share. Employee options are exercisable for a period of five years and officer options are exercisable for ten years from the date of grant. The CAD$0.13 per share was at the close price of the Company’s stock on the TSX Venture Exchange on July 28, 2022. The Options vest 10% on the grant date, and 15% every six months thereafter.

	2022		2021		(Decrease)
Total revenues	$	42,912	$	48,309	(11)	%

Cost of Revenues

Cost of goods sold includes the cost of inventory sold and production costs expensed. Direct and indirect production costs include direct labor, processing, testing, packaging, quality assurance, shipping, production management and other related expenses. The primary factors that can impact cost of goods sold on a period-to-period basis include the volume of products sold, the mix of product sold, transportation, and overhead allocations.

The components of cost of goods sold are as follows:


	Three Months Ended November 30,				% Increase
	2022		2021		(Decrease)
Cost of revenues	$	189,928	$	148,571	28	%

During the period ended November 30, 2022, the Company incurred an expense of $189,928 in relation to the MiQLab System product line as compared to $148,571 for the same period in 2021. This increase of $41,357 is primarily the result of the following items:

Wages and salaries increased to $120,643 during the three months ended November 30, 2022 compared to $79,752 in the same period of 2021. The increase is due to the increase in the number of production staff.

The Company determined that one MiQLab System and its consumables were unrecoverable and expensed those material costs to cost of revenues. The Company made numerous attempts to collect the unit from a customer but was unable to do so.

Table of Contents

Gross Loss

The primary factors that can impact gross margins include the volume of products sold, the mix of products sold, transportation costs and changes in inventory costs.

Gross loss is as follows:


	Three Months Ended November 30,				% Increase
	2022		2021		(Decrease)
Gross loss	$	147,016	$	100,262	47	%

Gross loss increased by 47% for the three months ended November 30, 2022 compared to 2021 caused by an increase in cost of goods sold and minimal changes in revenue. An increase in cost of goods sold is due to an increase in a number of manufacturing employees and the MiQLab System written off by the Company.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, and Research and Development

Total Selling, general, and administrative and research and development expenses are as follows:


	Three Months Ended November 30,				% Increase

Salaries and wages associated with sales, marketing and promotional activities decreased to $96,534 during the three months ended November 30, 2022, as compared to $381,589 for the same period in 2021. This decrease of $285,055 in expense in salaries and wages is directly related to the decrease in headcount year over year.

Marketing, advertising and promotional expenses decreased to $58,238 during the three months ended November 30, 2022, from $131,950 for the same period in 2021. This decrease of $73,712 is related to the Company focusing on specific major conferences during 2022 in addition to reducing the use of outside marketing consultants in order to conserve capital.

General and administrative expenses

Professional fees expense increased to $189,308 in 2022, as compared to $101,743 for the same period in 2021. This increase during the three months ended November 30, 2022, of $87,565 is directly related to the legal expenses in connection with the convertible debenture, quarterly reviews and SEC filing obligations due to the changes related to the Company’s filing status.

Transfer agent and filing fees decreased by $19,840 in 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021. This decrease is primarily related to the filing fees incurred during the three months ended November 30, 2021 in relation to the Short Form Base Shelf Prospectus that the Company had filed.

●

Costs associated with investor relations decreased to $8,611 in 2022, as compared to $110,776 for the same period in 2021. This decrease of $102,165 in expense for the three months ended November 30, 2022, as compared to same period in 2021, is due to the Company reducing its cash burn by reducing expenses for outside investor relation activities.

Table of Contents

Share-based compensation expense decreased to $107,556 in 2022, as compared to $139,498 in 2021. This decrease of $31,942 in expense is from the decrease in the value of new options and restricted share units granted to employees as compared to the same period in 2021 as well as forfeitures of the previously granted options and RSUs due to employee departures.

MiQLab System materials decreased by $266,978 from $327,210 in 2021 to $60,232 for the three months ended November 30, 2022 in comparison to the same period in 2021.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

The Company’s working capital as of November 30, 2022 was $640,285 including cash of $464,131 compared to a working capital of $5,676,454 including cash of $4,722,710 as of February 28, 2022.

The Company’s business currently does not generate positive cash flows from operations. As of November 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $50,339,236 since inception. Management’s plans to meet the Company’s current and future obligations are to raise capital in equity and private debt markets, private placements, rely on the financial support of its shareholders and related parties as well as to further expand commercial sales of the MiQLab System. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising that additional capital or that such capital, if available, will be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be compelled to reduce the scope of its operations and planned capital expenditures.

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other early commercial stage life science companies, including, but not limited to commercially launching the Company’s products, development and market acceptance of the Company’s product candidates, development by its competitors of new technological innovations, protection of proprietary technology, and raising additional capital. The Company’s ability to fund operating expenses and capital expenditures will depend on its future operating performance, the ability to further develop its genetic analyzer, the MiQLab System, which will be affected by general economic conditions, financial, regulatory, and other factors beyond the Company’s control (See ”Risk Factors”).

Cash Flows

The Company’s working capital as of November 30, 2022, was $640,285 including cash of $464,131 compared to a working capital of $2,980,475 including cash of $1,715,440 as of November 30, 2021.

Table of Contents

The Company’s business currently does not generate positive cash flows from operations. On November 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $50,339,236 since inception. The Company is reliant on equity financings to provide the necessary cash to continue the commercialization of the MiQLab System described in the Summary of Operations, and generating cash flow from operations in the future. These factors form a material uncertainty, which may raise significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Cash from Operating Activities

	Nine Months Ended November 30,				% Increase

Cash used in operating activities	$	5,063,871	$	7,809,568	(35)	%

The decrease of $2,745,697 in the amount of cash used was primarily due to the Company significantly reducing its expenses during the period, purchasing less inventory in 2022 and the timing of repayment of accounts payable.

Cash provided by financing activities during the period ended November 30, 2022 increased by 467% or $1,048,608 compared to the same period of 2021, due to cash obtained through a convertible note in the amount of $900,000 and $263,295 generated through warrant exercises by warrant holders.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various regulatory issues, claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

At present, the Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business. Nor is the Company or its property the subject of any legal proceedings, known or contemplated, that involve a claim for damages exclusive of interest and costs that meet or exceed 10% of its current assets.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our Annual Report on Form 10 for the year ended February 28, 2022 includes a detailed discussion of our risk factors under the heading “Part I, Item 1A—Risk Factors.” Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes from such risk factors during the quarter ended November 30, 2022. You should consider carefully the risk factors set forth in this Form 10-Q and discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10 for the year ended February 28, 2022 and all other information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Form 10-Q before making an investment decision. If any of the risks discussed herein or in the Annual Report on Form 10 for the year ended February 28, 2022 actually occur, they may materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results, cash flows or growth prospects. As a result, the market price of our common shares could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties that are not yet identified or that we think are immaterial may also materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results, cash flows or growth prospects and could result in a complete loss of your investment.

Inflation may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is impacted by inflation, such as current inflation related to global supply chain disruptions. Recent inflationary pressures have increased the cost of energy and raw materials and may adversely affect consumer spending, economic growth and operations. If we are unable to pass any increases in their costs along to their customers, it could adversely affect our operating results and our ability to raise funding.

Global economic and geopolitical conditions could adversely affect our operations.

In recent years, we have been faced with very challenging global economic conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic is currently causing disruptions to global economic conditions. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and sanctions against Russia also are causing disruptions to global economic conditions. It is unknown how long such disruptions will continue and whether such disruptions will become more severe. A deterioration in the global economic environment may result in a decrease in demand for our products, increased competition,

downward pressure on the prices for our products and longer sales cycles. A weakening of macroeconomic conditions may, and currently is, also adversely affecting our suppliers, which could continue to result in interruptions in the supply of the components and raw materials necessary for our products and raw material cost increases.

Our current and future debt and related covenants may restrict our future operations.

Our existing convertible note and agreements we may enter in the future, contain or may contain covenants imposing restrictions on our business. These restrictions may affect our ability to operate our business and may limit our ability to take advantage of potential business opportunities as they arise. Existing covenants place restrictions on our ability to, among other things: incur additional debt; acquire other businesses or assets through merger or purchase; create liens; make investments; enter into transactions with affiliates; sell assets; guarantee debt; and declare or pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions to stockholders. Our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. The breach of any of these restrictions could result in a default. An event of default under our convertible note agreement not remediated after 5 days will result in an eventual acceleration of the note and accrual of interest at the default rate of 16%.
