2.Accounting Policies

 

A.Basis of Preparation

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). They are condensed as they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2019 which are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

 

For comparative purposes, the Company has reclassified certain immaterial items on the comparative condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position and the condensed interim consolidated statement of comprehensive loss to conform with current period’s presentation.

 

The principles and accounting policies used to prepare the financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the adoption of IFRS 16.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March 30, 2020.

 

B.Use of estimates

 

The estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions in accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or in the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years. Significant judgements, estimates, and assumptions within these condensed interim consolidated financial statements remain the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019.

 

C.Adoption of new standards

 

IFRS 16 Leases

 

On January 13, 2016, the IASB published a new standard, IFRS 16 Leases. The new standard brings most leases on-balance sheet for lessees under a single model, eliminating the distinction between operating and finance leases. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Under the new standard, a lessee recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.

 

On November 1, 2019 the Company, adopted IFRS 16 Leases. The Company has applied IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective approach and therefore the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under IAS 17 Leases.

 

As a result of adopting IFRS 16, the Company has recognized a significant increase to both assets and liabilities on our Condensed Interim Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, as well as a decrease to operating expenses (for the removal of base rent expense and operating costs for leases), an increase to depreciation (due to the depreciation of the right-of use asset), and an increase to finance costs (due to accretion of the lease liability). Lease inducements, store closure costs and average rent adjustments (which were previously included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities) and onerous lease provisions are no longer recognized as separate liabilities and are included in the calculation of right-of-use assets under IFRS 16.

(Unaudited – In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts)

 

C.Adoption of new standards (continued)

 

Applying IFRS 16, for all leases, the Company:

 

recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position, initially measured at the present value of future lease payments;

 

recognizes depreciation of right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis and interest on lease liabilities in the consolidated statements of income or loss; and

 

reports the total amount of cash paid, including both the principal portion and interest within financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Lease incentives are recognized as part of the measurement of the right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities whereas under IAS 17 they resulted in the recognition of a lease incentive liability, amortized as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.

 

On adoption of IFRS 16, the Company recognized lease assets and liabilities in relation to leases previously classified as ‘operating leases’ under the principles of IAS 17. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the related incremental borrowing rate as of November 1, 2019. The incremental borrowing rate applied is 8%. The associated right-of-use assets were measured as equal to the lease liability and prepaid rent, discounted using the incremental borrowing rates as of November 1, 2019 adjusted for the effects of provisions for onerous leases.

 

Under IFRS 16, right-of-use assets are tested for impairment in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets. In the context of transition to IFRS 16, the Company recognized right-of-use assets of $19,638 and lease liabilities of $19,543 as at November 1, 2019. The Company capitalized prepaid lease deposits and lease inducements amounting to $95 to right of use assets on November 1, 2019 in accordance with IFRS 16.

 

In applying IFRS 16 for the first time, the Company has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:

 

the Company has elected to use a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar underlying characteristics;

 

the Company has elected to exclude initial direct costs incurred in obtaining leases in the measurement of the right-of-use asset on transition;

 

the Company has elected to use hindsight to determine the lease term where the lease contracts contain options to extend or terminate the lease;

 

the Company has elected not to separate lease components from any associated non lease components;

 

the Company has elected to rely on an onerous lease assessment as of October 31, 2019, as an alternative to performing an impairment review as at November 1, 2019; and

 

the Company has elected not to account for leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of November 1, 2019 as short-term leases or leases that meet the low-value exemption.

 

A reconciliation of lease commitments as at October 31, 2019, outlining the effect of transition to IFRS 16 is outlined below.

 

Operating lease commitments disclosed at October 31, 2019   21,218 
Effect of discounting using incremental borrowing rate at November 1, 2019   (5,926)
Reasonably certain lease extensions   4,251 
Total Lease Liabilities as of November 1, 2019   19,543

C.Adoption of new standards (continued)

 

Accounting policy

 

At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, which is calculated as the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability plus any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, any initial direct costs and related restoration costs. The right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation is recognized from the commencement date of the lease. To assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, we assess whether:

 

The contract involves the use of an identified asset;

 

The Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset throughout the period of use; and

 

The Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.

 

Estimates

 

The Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate used to measure our lease liability for each lease contract. This includes estimation in determining the asset-specific security impact. There is also estimation uncertainty arising from certain leases containing variable lease terms that are linked to operational results or an index or rate.

 

Judgments

 

The Company estimates the lease term by considering the facts and circumstances that can create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option by assessing relevant factors such as store profitability. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated). Potential future cash outflows have not been included in the lease liability because it is not reasonably certain that the lease will be extended. The assessment of the lease term is reviewed if a significant event or a significant change in circumstances occurs, which affects this assessment and that is within the control of the lessee.

 

D.New Accounting Pronouncements not yet adopted

 

Definition of a Business

 

In October 2018, the IASB issued “Definition of a Business (Amendments to IFRS 3)”. The amendments clarify the definition of a business, with the objective of assisting entities to determine whether a transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or as an asset acquisition. The amendment provides an assessment framework to determine when a series of integrated activities is not a business. The amendments are effective for business combinations occurring on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of these amendments on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 24, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of 2680495 Ontario Inc. (“2680495”) which operates a licensed retail cannabis store in Hamilton, Ontario. As consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid to the vendor $2,903 in cash and issued to the vendor 4,761,904 common shares in the capital of the Company. In connection with the transaction, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of 2680495.

 

Management is in the process of gathering the relevant information that existed at the acquisition date to determine the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. As such, the initial purchase price was provisionally allocated based on the Company’s estimated fair value of the identifiable assets acquired on the acquisition date. The values assigned are, therefore, preliminary and subject to change. Management continues to refine and finalize its purchase price allocation for the fair value of identifiable intangible assets, property plant and equipment, and the allocation of goodwill. None of the goodwill arising on this acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. For the three months ended January 31, 2020, 2680495 accounted for $516 in revenues and $93 in net income.

On January 27, 2020, the Company acquired a 50% interest in the Saturninus Partners (“Saturninus”) which operates a licensed retail cannabis store in Sudbury, Ontario. The Company, has classified this acquistion as a joint operation. The activity of the joint operation constitutes a business, as defined in IFRS 3 Business Combinations, it shall apply, to the extent of its share in accordance with all of the principles on business combinations accounting. As consideration for the transaction, the Company issued to nominees of the partners of the partnership an aggregate of 5,319,149 common shares of the Company, as well as common share purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of the Company. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.40 per share for a period of two years from the date of issuance. In addition, for a period of 2 years following the closing date, one of the outgoing partners will be entitled to receive, from the Saturninus, a royalty of 1% of the gross revenues of the Sudbury store. Contingent consideration was calculated using the present value of expected payment, discounting using 22% discount rate. The expencted payment is determined by considering the 1% share of forecasted revenue.

 

Management is in the process of gathering the relevant information that existed at the acquisition date to determine the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. As such, the initial purchase price was provisionally allocated based on the Company’s estimated fair value of the identifiable assets acquired on the acquisition date. The values assigned are, therefore, preliminary and subject to change. Management continues to refine and finalize its purchase price allocation for the fair value of identifiable intangible assets, property plant and equipment, and the allocation of goodwill. None of the goodwill arising on this acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. For the three months ended January 31, 2020, Saturninus accounted for $56 in revenues and ($5) in net loss.

 

4.Purchase of Minority interest in Shareholder

 

On December 10, 2019, the Company entered into a definitive share purchase agreement with 2651576 Ontario Inc. (the “Minority Shareholder”), a private Ontario company, to acquire the remaining 49.9% interest (the “Minority Interest”) in High Tide’s majority-owned subsidiary, KushBar Inc. (“KushBar”). Pursuant to the definitive agreement, High Tide, which presently holds a controlling interest of 50.1% in KushBar, will acquire the Minority Interest in a transaction (the “Transaction”) that will result in KushBar becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of High Tide. The consideration paid for the minority interest was by the issuance of a secured convertible debenture in the principal amount of approximately $700 to settle the shareholder loan and 2,645,503 number of common shares in the capital of High Tide (“Shares”) having an aggregate fair value of $500, with each common share priced at the 10-day volume weighted average trading price of the shares on the CSE immediately prior to the closing date.

 

The book value of the non-controlling interest at the time of the purchase was negative $187. The incremental amount of the fair value of the consideration paid over the book value of the non-controlling interest at December 10, 2019, of $500 was recognized as an adjustment to contributed surplus and $187 to accumulated deficit.

10.Convertible Debentures

 

i.On November 28, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement for a brokered private placement for the sale of up to 20,000 unsecured convertible debentures of the Company, at a price of $1 per debenture for gross proceeds of up to $20,000. The debentures bear interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum, payable on the last business day of each calendar quarter. The debentures are convertible to common shares of the Company at a price of $0.75 per common share and mature two years from the closing of the offering. The first closing occurred on December 13, 2018 issuing 11,330 debentures at a price of $1 per debenture for gross proceeds of $11,330. The company incurred $618 in issue costs in relation to the first closing which included the 504,733 broker warrants valued at $93 using Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: stock price of $0.36; expected life of 2 years; $Nil dividends; 130% volatility; and risk-free interest rate of 1.60%. Each broker warrant is exercisable for one common share of the Company at a price of $0.75 per share until December 11, 2020.

 

Management calculated the fair value of the liability component as $8,907 using a discount rate of 22%, with the residual amount of $2,422 net of deferred tax of $654 being allocated to the conversion feature recorded in equity. The Company incurred $618 in debt issuance cost, $486 was allocated to debt component and the remaining $132 to the equity.

 

ii.On April 10, 2019, the Company closed the first tranche of the sale of unsecured convertible debentures of the Company under a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $8,360. The outstanding principal amount is convertible at any time before maturity at the option of the holder, into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.75 per share and mature two years from the closing of the private placement. Under the private placement, the Company also issued common share purchase warrants such that each subscriber received one warrant for each $0.75 original principal amount of its debenture, resulting in 11,146,667 warrants being issued as part of the offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.85 per share for two years from the date of issuance. The company incurred $50 in legal costs which was paid by the issuance of 100,000 shares with a fair value of $0.50 per share. The debentures bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable annually upfront in common shares of High Tide based on the 10-day volume weighted average price of $0.48 prior to the closing date of the private placement. Concurrent with the issuance of the debentures, the Company paid the annual amount of interest due to holders upfront in the form of 1,752,621 Shares.

 

Management calculated the fair value of the liability component as $7,138 using a discount rate of 22%, with the residual amount of $1,222 net of deferred tax of $330 being allocated to warrants, recorded in equity. The Company incurred $58 in debt issuance cost, $50 being allocated to debt component and the remaining $8 to the warrants.

 

On December 4, 2019, the Company repaid $1,500 towards the principal of the convertible debt.

 

iii.On June 17, 2019, the Company closed the final tranche of the sale of unsecured convertible debentures of the Company under the non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $3,200. The outstanding principal amount is convertible at any time before maturity at the option of the holder, into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.75 per share and mature two years from the closing of the offering. Under the offering, the Company also issued common share purchase warrants such that each subscriber received one warrant for each $0.75 original principal amount of its debenture, resulting in 4,266,667 warrants being issued as part of the offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.85 per share for two years from the date of issuance. The debentures will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable annually upfront in common shares of High Tide based on the 10-day volume weighted average price of $0.384 prior to the closing date of the offering. Concurrent with the final tranche issuance of the debentures, the Company paid the annual amount of interest due to holders upfront in the form of 855,615 Shares.

10.Convertible Debentures (continued)

 

iv.On November 14, 2019, the Company closed the sale of unsecured convertible debentures of the Company under the non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $2,000. The outstanding principal amount is convertible at any time before maturity at the option of the holder, into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.252 per share and mature two years from the closing of the offering. Under the offering, the Company also issued common share purchase warrants such that each subscriber received one warrant for each $0.252 original principal amount of its debenture, resulting in 7,936,057 warrants being issued as part of the offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for two years from the date of issuance. The debentures will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable annually upfront in common shares of High Tide based on the 10-day volume weighted average price of $0.255 prior to the closing date of the offering. Concurrent with the final tranche issuance of the debentures, the Company paid the annual amount of interest due to holders upfront in the form of 784,314 Shares.

 

Management calculated the fair value of the liability component as $1,707 using a discount rate of 22%, with the residual amount of $292 net of deferred tax of $79 being allocated to warrants, recorded in equity. 

 

v.On December 4, 2019, the Company closed the sale of unsecured convertible debentures of the Company under the non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $2,115. The outstanding principal amount is convertible at any time before maturity at the option of the holder, into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.252 per share and mature two years from the closing of the offering. Under the offering, the Company also issued common share purchase warrants such that each subscriber received one warrant for each $0.252 original principal amount of its debenture, resulting in 8,392,857 warrants being issued as part of the offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for two years from the date of issuance. The debentures will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable annually upfront in common shares of High Tide based on the 10-day volume weighted average price of $0.208 prior to the closing date of the offering. Concurrent with the final tranche issuance of the debentures, the Company paid the annual amount of interest due to holders upfront in the form of 1,016,826 Shares. An advising fee of $3 was paid in connection to the convertible debt.

 

Management calculated the fair value of the liability component as $1,806 using a discount rate of 22%, with the residual amount of $309 net of deferred tax of $83 being allocated to warrants, recorded in equity. 

 

vi.On December 12, 2019, the Company issued $700, to acquire the remaining 49.9% interest (the “Minority Interest”) in HighTide’s majority-owned subsidiary, KushBar Inc. Pursuant to the definitive agreement, High Tide, which held a controlling interest of 50.1% in KushBar, acquired the Minority interest in a transaction (the “Transaction”) that resulted in KushBar becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of High Tide. The outstanding principal amount is convertible at any time before maturity at the option of the holder, into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.25 per share and mature two years from the closing of the offering. The debentures do not bear any interest rate. However, that any principal amount outstanding following the maturity date will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum until repaid. If, following the expiry of all hold periods imposed by applicable Canadian securities laws, the volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the CSE exceeds $0.30 for a period of 30 consecutive days, High Tide will be entitled to, subject to certain other conditions being met, cause the holder to convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture into common shares. In addition, if at any time during the term thereof, High Tide issues securities at a price deemed lower than the conversion price then in effect, then, subject to certain other conditions, such conversion price will be adjusted downward to such lower price.

 

In accordance with IFRS 9, the equity conversion option embedded in the convertible debenture was determined to be a derivative liability, which has been recognized separately at its fair value of $461. Subsequent changes in fair value of the equity conversion option will be recognized through profit and loss (i.e. FVTPL). The equity conversion option was classified as a derivative liability as it can be settled through the issuance of a variable number of shares, cash or a combination thereof, based on the trading price at the time of settlement. The fair value of the equity conversion option was determined using the a monte-carlo simulation and the following assumptions: stock price: $0.17; expected life of 2 year; $nil dividends; expected volatility of 111% based on comparable companies; exercise price of $0.25; and risk-free interest rate of 1.65%. The debt host has been recognized at its amortized cost of $239, which represents the remaining fair value allocated from the amount of shareholder loan settled of $700. As of January 31, 2020, the conversion option had a fair value of $470 and the Company recognized a $9 unrealized gain on the derivative liability. The fair value of the equity conversion option was determined using the a monte-carlo simulation and the following assumptions: stock price: $0.20; expected life of 1.88 year; $nil dividends; expected volatility of 111% based on comparable companies; exercise price of $0.25; and risk-free interest rate of 1.65%.

10.Convertible Debentures (continued)

 

vii.On December 14, 2019, the Company issued $2,000 in convertible debt to settle the put option related to Grasscity acquisition valued at $2,121 as of October 31, 2019. The outstanding principal amount is convertible at any time before maturity at the option of the holder, into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.252 per share and mature two years from the closing of the offering. Under the offering, the Company also issued common share purchase warrants such that each subscriber received one warrant for each $0.252 original principal amount of its debenture, resulting in 7,936,508 warrants being issued as part of the offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for two years from the date of issuance. The debentures will bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum, payable annually upfront in common shares of High Tide based on the 10-day volume weighted average price of $0.175 prior to the closing date of the offering. Concurrent with the final tranche issuance of the debentures, the Company paid the annual amount of interest due to holders upfront in the form of 1,142,857 Shares.

 

Management calculated the fair value of the liability component as $1,708 using a discount rate of 22%, with the residual amount of $292 net of deferred tax of $79 being allocated to warrants, recorded in equity. 

 

viii.On January 6, 2020, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Windsor Private Capital (“Windsor”), a Toronto-based merchant bank, for a senior secured, non-revolving term credit facility (“the Facility”) in the amount of up to $10,000. The Company will have immediate access to an initial $6,000, that can be drawn down at Company’s discretion, and subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, will provide the Company with access to an additional $4,000. Provided that certain conditions are satisfied, the Facility will automatically extend for an additional one-year term. The principal amount advanced under the facility is convertible, during its term at any time after an initial 6 month hold period, and at Windsor’s option, into common shares in the capital of the Company at a conversion price of $0.17 per share and mature one year from the closing of the offering. The conversion price is subject to downward adjustment if the Company, at any time during the term of the facility, issues securities at a price deemed lower than the conversion price then in effect. Pursuant to the loan agreement, Windsor is entitled to a one-time placement fee equal to 3.5% of the initial Facility amount, which the Company capitalized into the principal amount advanced under the Facility. Under the offering, the Company also issued common share purchase warrants such that each subscriber received one warrant for each $0.17 original principal amount of its debenture, resulting in 35,294,117 warrants being issued as part of the offering. Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one share at an exercise price of $0.255 per share for two years from the date of issuance. Amounts drawn down under the facility will bear interest at a rate of 11.5% per annum, payable monthly, in arrears, on the last day of each calendar month. As of January 31, 2020, the Company withdrew in the amount of $5,000 from the credit facility.

 

Gross proceeds were $5,000 and net proceeds were $4,743, net of cash transaction costs of $257. The gross proceeds were allocated on a relative fair value basis to the warrants for $327, the host debt component for $1,571, and the embedded derivatives for $3,102. In accordance with IFRS 9, the equity conversion option embedded in the convertible debenture was determined to be a derivative liability, which has been recognized separately at its fair value of $3,102. Subsequent changes in fair value of the equity conversion option will be recognized through profit and loss (i.e. FVTPL). The equity conversion option was classified as a derivative liability as it can be settled through the issuance of a variable number of shares, cash or a combination thereof, based on the trading price at the time of settlement. The fair value of the equity conversion option was determined using the a monte-carlo simulation and the following assumptions: stock price: $0.16; expected life of 1 year; $nil dividends; expected volatility of 111% based on comparable companies; exercise price of $0.25; and risk-free interest rate of 1.65%. Management elected to capitalize transaction costs, which are directly attributable to the issuance of the loan agreement. As of January 31, 2020, the conversion option had a fair value of $2,793 and the Company recognized a $309 unrealized gain on the derivative liability. The fair value of the equity conversion option was determined using the a monte-carlo simulation and the following assumptions: stock price: $0.20; expected life of 0.93 year; $nil dividends; expected volatility of 111% based on comparable companies; exercise price of $0.25; and risk-free interest rate of 1.65%.

17.Financial Instruments and Risk Management

 

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The Company is exposed to credit, liquidity, and market risk due to holding certain financial instruments. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.

 

Risk management is carried out by senior management in conjunction with the Board of Directors.

 

A full analysis is provided in Note 22 of the audited consolidated financial statements of the company for the year ended October 31, 2019 with significant updates as follows:

 

Credit risk

 

Credit risk arises when a party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the counter party by failing to fulfill its obligation. Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities and loans receivable. The credit risk relating to cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities balances is limited because the counterparties are large commercial banks. The amounts reported for accounts receivable in the statement of financial position is net of expected credit loss and the net carrying value represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. Accounts receivable credit exposure is minimized by entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties and monitoring the age and balances outstanding on an ongoing basis. Sales to retail customers are required to be settled in cash or using major credit cards, mitigating credit risk.

 

The following table sets forth details of the aging profile of accounts receivable and the allowance for expected credit loss:

 

As at  January 31,
2020
   October 31,
2019
 
   $   $ 
Current (for less than 30 days)   1,450    1,038 
31 – 60 days   272    336 
61 – 90 days   106    295 
Greater than 90 days   1,070    2,355 
Less allowance   (359)   (1,639)
    2,539    2,385 

 

During the period ended January 31, 2020, $1,280 in trade receivables were written off against the loss allowance due to bad debts (year ended October 31, 2019 – $100). Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. The remaining accounts receivable are assessed collectively to determine whether there is objective evidence that an impairment has been incurred but not yet been identified.

 

The Company performs a regular assessment of collectability of accounts receivables. The Company monitors the financial performance and/or cash flows of its franchisees through observation of their point of sale system, receipt of cash from customers and maintains regular contact/discussions. For the period ended January 31, 2020, management reviewed the estimates and have not created any additional loss allowances on accounts receivable.

17.Financial Instruments and Risk Management (continued)

 

Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company generally relies on funds generated from operations, equity and debt financings to provide sufficient liquidity to meet budgeted operating requirements and to supply capital to expand its operations. The Company continues to seek capital to meet current and future obligations as they come due. Maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities are as follows:

 

   Contractual
cash flows
   Less than
one year
   1-5
years
   Greater than
5 years
 
   $   $   $   $ 
October 31, 2019                
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   4,402    4,402    -    -

Convertible debentures   19,664    -    19,664    - 
Total   28,399    8,673    19,726    - 
January 31, 2020                    
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   5,363    5,363    -    - 
Notes payable   3,653    3,582    71    - 
Convertible debentures   26,098    11,512    14,586    - 
Total   35,114    20,457    14,657    - 

 

Interest rate risk

 

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk as its interest-bearing financial instruments carry a fixed rate of interest.

 

Foreign currency risk

 

Foreign currency risk is defined as 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 maintains cash balances and enters into transactions denominated in foreign currencies, which exposes the Company to fluctuating balances and cash flows due to variations in foreign exchange rates.

 

The Canadian dollar equivalent carrying amounts of the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities as at January 31, 2020 was as follows:

 

(Canadian dollar equivalent amounts of US dollar and Euro balances)  January 31,
2020 (Euro)
   January 31,
2020 (USD)
   January 31,
2020 Total
   October 31,
2019
 
   $   $   $   $ 
Cash   (28)   336    308    252 
Accounts receivable (including long term portion)   99    118    217    421 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (470)   (610)   (1,080)   (998)
Net monetary assets   (399)   (156)   (555)   (325)

 

Assuming all other variables remain constant, a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between the United States dollar and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $8 (October 31, 2019 - $11). Maintaining constant variables, a fluctuation of +/- 5.0 percent in the exchange rate between the Euro and the Canadian dollar would impact the carrying value of the net monetary assets by approximately +/- $20 (October 31, 2019 - $17). To date, the Company has not entered into financial derivative contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

18.Segmented Information

 

Segments are identified by management based on the allocation of resources, which is done on a basis of selling channel rather than by legal entity. As such, the Company has established two main segments, being retail and wholesale, with a Corporate segment which includes oversight and start up operations of new entities until such time as revenue generation commences. The reportable segments are managed separately because of the unique characteristics and requirements of each business.

Due to the short time period between the closing of the acquisition date and the publication of these consolidated financial statements, the allocation of the purchase price has not been provided because that information has not yet been finalized.
