BASIS OF PREPARATION

 

 

2.1

Statement of compliance

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses recurring over the years. This raises the doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional financing through share issuance or debt borrowing or through cash flow generated from sales contracts and distribution agreements. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2019 were approved and authorized by the Board of Directors on November 29, 2019.

 

 

2.2

Basis of measurement

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except as provided in note 4. The comparative figures presented in these consolidated financial statements are in accordance with the same accounting policies.

 

 

2.3

Basis of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries controlled by the Company (the “Group”) as at September 30, 2018. Control exists when the Company is exposed to, or has the rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect these returns through its power over the entity.

BASIS OF PREPRATION (Cont’d)

 

 

2.3

Basis of consolidation (Cont’d)

 

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. All inter-group balances, transactions, unrealized gains and losses resulting from inter-group transactions and dividends are eliminated in full.

 

 

2.4

Functional and presentation currency

 

The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates and has been determined for each entity within the Group. These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian Dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. The functional currency of ELL Technologies Limited and Lingo Group Limited are United States Dollar (“USD”). All other subsidiaries’ functional currency is Canadian Dollar (“CAD”).

 

The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”.

 

 

 

3.

SIGINIFICANT ACCOUTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

 

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date of the consolidated financial statements and during the reporting period.

 

Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

 

Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:

 

 

Determination of functional currency

 

 

Determination of expected credit loss

 

 

Recognition of internally developed intangibles

 

 

Recognition of government grant and grant receivable

 

 

Recognition of deferred tax assets

 

 

Valuation of share-based payments

SUMMARY OF SIGINFICANT ACCOUTING POLICIES

 

The accounting policies applied by the Company in these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, except the following:

SUMMARY OF SIGINFICANT ACCOUTING POLICIES (Cont’d)

 

New Standards Adopted in Current Year

 

IFRS 16 ‘Leases” was issued by the IASB in January 2016 and applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. IFRS 16 establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases, with the objective of ensuring that lessees and lessors provide relevant information that faithfully represents those transactions. The new standard brings most leases on-balance sheet for lessees under a single model, eliminating the distinction between operating and finance leases. Lessor accounting however, remains largely unchanged and the distinction between operating and finance leases is retained. Under IFRS 16, a lessee recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. The right-of-use asset is treated similarly to other non-financial assets and depreciated accordingly and the liability accrues interest. This will typically produce a front-loaded expense profile (whereas operating leases under IAS 17 would typically have had straight-line expenses) as an assumed linear depreciation of the right-of-use asset and the decreasing interest on the liability will lead to an overall decrease of expense over the reporting period.

 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments payable over the lease term, discounted at the rate implicit in the lease if that can be readily determined. The use their incremental borrowing rate. As with IFRS 16’s predecessor, IAS 17, lessors classify leases as operating or finance in nature. A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an underlying asset. Otherwise a lease is classified as an operating lease.

 

The Company has elected to apply the retrospective method by setting right-of-use assets based on the lease liability at the date of initial application, adjusted by the amount of lease payments.

 

The following table summarize the impacts of adopting IFRS 16 on the consolidated balance sheet as September 30, 2019 and the statement of comprehensive income (loss) for the period then ended for each of the line items affected. There was no material impact on the consolidated statement of cash flows for the period ended September 30, 2019.

SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

 

In December 2017, the Company amended its stock option plan (the “2017 Plan”). The 2017 Plan was established to provide an incentive to management (officers), employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. The maximum number of shares which may be reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan is limited to 7,105,838 shares less the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted under the 1996 Plan, the 2000 Plan, the 2005 Plan, the 2009 Plan and the 2011 Plan, provided that the Board of Directors of the Company has the right, from time to time, to increase such number subject to the approval of the relevant exchange on which the shares are listed and the approval of the shareholders of the Company.

 

The maximum number of common shares that may be reserved for issuance to any one person under the 2017 Plan is 5% of the common shares outstanding at the time of the grant (calculated on a non-diluted basis) less the number of shares reserved for issuance to such person under any option to purchase common shares of the Company granted as a compensation or incentive mechanism.

 

The exercise price of each option cannot be less than the market price of the shares on the day immediately preceding the day of the grant less any permitted discount. The exercise period of the options granted cannot exceed 10 years. Options granted under the 2017 Plan do not have any required vesting provisions. However, the Board of Directors of the Company may, from time to time, amend or revise the terms of the 2017 Plan or may terminate it at any time.

The weighted average remaining contractual life for the stock options outstanding as at September 30, 2019 was years 1.77 (2018 – 1.97 years, 2017 – 1.3 years). The range of exercise prices for the stock options outstanding as at September 30, 2019 was $0.07 - $0.23 (2018 - $0.20-$0.23, 2017 - $0.13-$0.24). The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted to management, employees, directors and consultants has been estimated at $0.0519 (2018 - $0.12, 2017 - $0.0762) using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The estimated fair value of the options granted is expensed immediately.

 

The vesting periods on the options granted in 2019 are as follows, the options are vested quarterly over 3 years, three months after grant date. The vesting periods on the options granted on December 20, 2018 are as follows, 25% vest on November 20, 2018, the remaining vest quarterly over 9 months, commencing three months after grant date.

GOVERNMENT GRANTS

 

Included as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses are government grants of $176,020 (2018 - $182,077), relating to the Company's publishing projects. At the end of the period, $166,382 (2018 - $172,485) is included in accounts and grants receivable.

 

One government grant for the print-based ELL segment is repayable in the event that the segment’s annual net income for each of the previous two years exceeds 15% of revenue. During the year, the conditions for the repayment of grants did not arise and no liability was recorded.

 

One grant, relating to the Company’s “Development of Comprehensive, Interactive Phonetic English Learning Solution” project, is repayable semi-annually at a royalty rate of 2.5% per year’s gross sales derived from this project until 100% of the grant is repaid.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Fair values

 

The carrying value of cash and accounts and grants receivable, approximates their fair value due to the liquidity of these instruments. The carrying values of accounts payables and accrued liabilities and loans payables approximate their fair value due to the requirement to extinguish the liabilities on demand or payable within a year.

 

Financial risk management objectives and policies

 

The financial risk arising from the Company’s operations are currency risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. These risks arise from the normal course of operations and all transactions undertaken are to support the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The risks associated with these financial instruments and the policies on how to mitigate these risks are as follows:

 

 

a.

Foreign currency risk

 

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian Dollar and the Company’s net investments in foreign subsidiaries.

 

The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk as certain expenditures are denominated in non-Canadian Dollar currencies.

 

The Company has been exposed to this fluctuation and has not implemented a program against these foreign exchange fluctuations.

 

A 10% strengthening of the US Dollar against the Canadian Dollar would have increased the net equity approximately by $2,437 (2018 - $35,457) due to reduction in the value of net liability balance. A 10% of weakening of the US Dollar against the Canadian Dollar at September 30, 2018 would have had the equal but opposite effect. The significant financial instruments of the Company, their carrying values and the exposure to other denominated monetary assets and liabilities, as of September 30, 2019 are as follows:

b.

Liquidity risk

 

The Company manages its liquidity risk by preparing and monitoring forecasts of cash expenditures to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities generally have maturities of less than 90 days. At September 30, 2019, the Company had cash of $30,367, accounts and grants receivable of $1,001,936 and prepaid and other receivables of $94,609 to settle current liabilities of $775,800.

 

 

c.

Credit Risk

 

Credit risk refers to the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the counterparty by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is primarily exposed to credit risk through accounts receivable. The maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the reported amounts of these financial assets. Credit risk is managed by ongoing review of the amount and aging of accounts receivable balances. As at September 30, 2019, the Company has outstanding trade receivables of $835,554 (2018 - $944,809). New impairment requirements use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognize an allowance. Impairment is measured using a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. For receivables, a simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses using a lifetime expected loss allowance is available. The Company deposits its cash with high credit quality financial institutions, with the majority deposited within Canadian Tier 1 Banks.

 

 

 

14.

MAJOR CUSTOMER

 

The Company had sales to a major customer in the period ended in September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, a government agency of the People’s Republic of China. The total percentage of sales to this customer during the period was 82% (2018 – 76%) and the total percentage of accounts receivable at September 30, 2019 was 94% (2018 – 87%)

 

 

 

15.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

 

The Company’s primary objectives when managing capital are to (a) safeguard the Company’s ability to develop, market, distribute and sell English language learning products, and (b) provide a sound capital structure for raising capital at a reasonable cost for the funding of ongoing development of its products and new growth initiatives. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain future development of the business.

 

The Company includes equity, comprised of issued share capital, warrants, share-based payments reserve and deficit, in the definition of capital. The Company is dependent on cash flow from co-publishing and distribution agreements and external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out planned development of its products and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There has been no change to the Company’s capital management in 2019 or 2018.
