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 condensed consolidated interim financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries controlled by the Company (the “Group”) as at September 30, 2021. 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.
 
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.

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

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 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 estimated fair value of the options granted is expensed immediately.
 
The pricing model assumes the weighted average risk free interest rates of 1.37% (2010 – 1.37%, 2019 – 2.19%) weighted average expected dividend yields of nil (2020 – nil, 2019 – nil), the weighted average expected common stock price volatility (based on historical trading) of 123% (2020 – 123%, 2019 – 105%), a forfeiture rate of 0% (2020 – 0%, 2019 – 0%), a weighted average stock price of $0.05 (2020 - $0.20, 2019 - $0.07), a weighted average exercise price of $0.05 (2020 - $0.05, 2019 - $0.07), and a weighted average expected life of 3 years (2020 – 2.85 years, 2019 – 2.85 years), which were estimated based on past experience with options and option contract specifics.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Contd)
 
 
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 $97,025 (2020 ‑ $79,357) 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, 2021 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, 2021 are as follows:
 
   
US Denominated
USD
 
Cash
    794,820  
Accounts receivable
    666,196  
Accounts payable
    24,979  
 
 
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. On September 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $1,184,547, accounts and grants receivable of $1,013,424 and prepaid and other receivables of $113,605 to settle current liabilities of $424,211.
 
 
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 of September 30, 2021, the Company has outstanding trade receivables of $848,424 (2020 - $249,383). 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.

15.
MAJOR CUSTOMER
 
The Company had sales to a major customer in the period ended on September 30, 2021 and on September 30, 2020, a government agency of the People’s Republic of China. The total percentage of sales to this customer during the period was 68% (2020 – 79%) and the total percentage of accounts receivable on September 30, 2021 was 97% (2020 – 86%).
 
16.
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 from the approach used in 2021 or in 2020.
 
17.

COVID-19
 
Since December 31, 2019, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,” has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions.
 
The extent to which COVID-19 and any other pandemic or public health crisis impacts the Company’s business, affairs, operations, financial condition, liquidity, availability of credit and results of operations will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with any meaningful precision, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 virus and the actions required to contain the COVID-19 virus or remedy its impact, among others. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company and its operating subsidiaries in future periods.
