Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit.
We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
-
Provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the group Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
-
Determine, from the matters communicated with those charged with governance, those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

and per option amounts
1. Reporting entity
Cathedral Energy Services Ltd. (the or ) is a company domiciled in Canada. The Company is a publicly traded company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under symbol "CET". The consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended December 31, 2021
is incorporated in the United States of America ("U.S.") and its functional currency is U.S. dollars ("USD").
The Company and INC are primarily involved and engaged in the business of providing directional drilling services to oil and natural gas companies in western Canada and the U.S.
2. Basis of preparation
- (a) Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with are defined as International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Acco . The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March xx, 2022.
(b) Basis of measurement
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.
(c) Functional and presentation currency
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars ("CAD") presentation and functional currency. All financial information presented in dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand except for per share amounts.
(d) Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic due to COVID-19. COVID-19 had a significant impact on global markets from that point to present. As the situation continues to evolve, the magnitude of its impact on the economy, commodity prices, drilling activity remains uncertain at this time.
All of tion, results of operations, cash flows, and ability to collect on accounts receivable and future impairments of Company assets. There also may be negative impact on supply chain, availability and costs related to personnel, market pricing and customer demand. These factors may impact the Company's profitability, liquidity and cash flows.
Areas that require management to make significant judgment and estimates in determining the amounts recognized in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to the following:
Judgments
(i) Current and deferred income taxes
The Company must make determinations on whether to record amounts for various tax pools it has available for future use. In making this determination, the Company looks at future expectations to determine what amounts, if any, can be recognized. The Company also reviews all tax assessments to determine which assessments it concurs with and will record in its records and which assessments it disputes and which it expects to be changed. If the Company believes it is more likely than not that the assessment was incorrect, it does not make a provision for a liability in its accounts. As such, the provisions for current and deferred income taxes are subject to measurement uncertainty.
(ii) Recognition of contingent liabilities
The determination if a contingent liability requires an accrual in the financial statements or only requires disclosure is an area that requires significant judgment. In making this determination, management reviews the specific details of the contingency and may seek professional help if the matter is of sufficient complexity. For items not recorded as contingent liabilities, there is also a determination required if the amount of claim would be material, as only material amounts are disclosed in financial statements. As at December 31, 2021, the Company had no material unaccrued contingent liabilities.
Estimates
(i) Equipment
The Company makes estimates about the residual value and expected useful life of equipment. These estimates are impacted by estimates for usage, technology changes, customer requirements and other factors. industry norms. Expected useful life and depreciation rates are as disclosed in note 3 (d) (iii).
(ii) Impairment of assets
Equipment and intangibles are assessed for impairment when circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may exceed the recoverable amount for the asset. Significant judgement is required to assess when indicators of impairment exist, and impairment testing is required. The assessment of indicators of
-financial assets within the CGU, are impaired. These factors include future cash flows, expected industry activity levels, commodity price developments and market capitalization. The determination of the recoverable amount of the CGU requires estimates and assumptions that are subject to change as new information becomes available. These include estimates of future cash flows, growth rates, pre-tax discount rates as well as various estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of revenues and expenses used in
smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows independently of other assets.
Trade accounts receivable require estimates to be ma
they operate in order to assess if accounts receivable balances will be received. Credit risks for outstanding accounts receivable are assessed regularly and an allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based upon specific customer information and experience as well as for groups of similar assets. See note 24
Inventory is reviewed periodically in order to determine if there is obsolescence. estimates of future demand.
(iii) Income taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for future income taxes whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the accounting basis and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities, and are measured using substantively enacted tax rates and laws expected to apply when these differences reverse. As a result, a projection of taxable income is required for those years, as well as an assumption of the ultimate recovery/settlement period for the temporary differences.
The business and operations of the Company are complex and the Company has executed a number of significant financings, reorganizations, acquisitions and other material transactions over the course of its history. The computation of income taxes payable resulting from these transactions involves many complex factors as well as the Company's interpretation of relevant tax legislation and regulations. The Company's management believes that the provision for income tax is adequate and in accordance with GAAP and applicable legislation and regulations. However, tax-filing positions are subject to review by taxation authorities who may successfully challenge the Company's interpretation of the applicable tax legislation and regulations.
(iv) Liquidity
As part of its capital management process, the Company prepares a forecast / budget. Management and the board of directors use the forecast / budget to direct and monitor the strategy and ongoing operations and liquidity of the Company. Forecasts / budgets are subject to significant judgment and estimates relating to activity levels, future cash flows and the timing thereof and other factors which may or may not be within the control of the Company. See further discussions relating to liquidity in notes 2, 14 and 24.
3. Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently by the Company to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements unless otherwise indicated.
(a) Basis of consolidation
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in which the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest are recognized and measured at their fair value at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the purchase price plus any noncontrolling interest over the fair value of the net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Any deficiency of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired is credited to net earnings.
At acquisition, goodwill is allocated to each of the CGUs to which it relates. Subsequent measurement of goodwill is at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.
(i) Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by Cathedral. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries align with the policies adopted by Cathedral.
(ii) Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealized income, expenses, gains or losses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
- (b) Foreign currency
(i) Foreign currency transactions
All transactions that are not denominated in an entity's functional currency are foreign currency transactions. These transactions are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the appropriate daily rate which best approximates the actual rate of transaction.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. All differences are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items are not adjusted and continue to be measured at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
(ii) Foreign operations
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to CAD at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to CAD at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and have been recognized in accumulated other comprehensive umulative translation account) is transferred to profit or loss as part of the profit or loss on disposal. On the partial disposal of a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the relevant proportion of such cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interest. In any other partial disposal of a foreign operation, the relevant proportion is reclassified to profit or loss.
-
(c) Financial instruments
-
(i) Financial assets Initial recognition and measurement
Financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified as financial assets at amortized cost, fair value through profit or loss or fair value through other comprehensive income, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition, based on trade date. All fi
receivables. All financial assets are measured at amortized cost.
Subsequent measurement
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
The Company has no financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial assets carried at amortized cost
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the Company applies the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery.
(ii) Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial liabilities within the scope of IFRS 9 are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or at amortized cost. The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value include operating loan, trade and other payables, leases liability loans and borrowings and provision for settlement. All financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost.
Subsequent measurement
After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate ("EIR") method. Gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the EIR method amortization process. The EIR amortization is included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of earnings.
Derecognition and modification
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings.
(iii) Offsetting of financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statements of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
- (d) Equipment
(i) Recognition and measurement
Items of equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, and borrowing costs on qualifying assets.
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
When parts of an item of equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of equipment.
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of equipment, and are recognized net within other income in profit or loss.
(ii) Subsequent costs
The cost of replacing a part of an item of equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to Cathedral, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of equipment (repair and maintenance) are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
(iii) Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for cost, less its residual value.
Depreciation is recognized in profit or loss on either a straight-line or declining balance basis over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of equipment.
Items of equipment are depreciated from the date that they are installed and are available for use, or in respect of internally constructed assets, from the date that the asset is completed and available for use.
The estimated useful lives, depreciation rates and depreciation methods for the current and comparative periods are as follows:
==> picture [525 x 65] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
|||||
|---|---|---|---|
|Estimated life in years|Depreciation rates|Depreciation method|
|Directional drilling equipment|5 to 8|25 to 37.5%|Declining balance|
|Office and computer equipment|3.0 to 11.5|20 to 55%|Declining balance|
|Automotive equipment|8 to 11.5|20 to 30%|Declining balance|
|Leasehold improvements|5|20%|Straight-line|
----- End of picture text -----
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each year and adjusted if appropriate.
(e) Intangible assets
(i) Internally generated intangible asset - Research and development
Expenditure on research activities, undertaken with the prospect of gaining new scientific or technical knowledge and understanding, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Development activities involve a plan or design for the production of new or substantially improved products and processes. Development expenditure is capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and Cathedral intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. The expenditure capitalized includes the cost of materials, direct labour, overhead costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, and borrowing costs on qualifying assets. Other development expenditure is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
Capitalized development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
(ii) Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
(iii) Amortization
Amortization is calculated on the cost of the asset less its residual value.
Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from the date that they are available for use, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. The estimated useful life for capitalized development costs is 5 years.
Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end and adjusted if appropriate.
(f) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventories is based on the average cost principle, and includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
- (g) Impairment
(i) Financial assets (including receivables)
A financial asset other than those carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date. A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be reliably estimated.
Trade receivables are recognized and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any amounts estimated to be uncollectible. The Company calculates an expected credit loss based on historical experience of bad debts and specific provisions created when there is objective evidence that the collection of the full amount of a receivable is no longer probable under the terms of the original invoice. The amount of this allowance represents management's best estimate of expected credit losses. Trade receivables are derecognized when they are assessed as uncollectible.
(ii) Non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of Cathedral
-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to or cash generating unit's recoverable amount
is estimated.
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of -generating unit", or " acquired in a business combination is allocated to CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. This allocation is subject to an operating segment ceiling test and reflects the lowest level at which that goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.
Cathedral here is an indication that a corporate asset may be impaired, then the recoverable amount is determined for the CGU to which the corporate asset belongs.
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change
carrying amount does
not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
- (h) Employee benefits
(i) Termination benefits
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense when Cathedral is committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan either to terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits because of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognized as an expense if Cathedral has made an offer of voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value.
(ii) Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.
A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if Cathedral has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount because of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
(iii) Share-based payment transactions equity settled
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees, directors and consultants is recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards (vesting period). The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.
Share-based payment arrangements in which Cathedral receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payment transactions.
(i) Revenue
The Company provides directional drilling services. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of the good or services. Determining the timing of the transfer of control (at a point in time or over time) requires judgement. Revenue for these services are recognized over time based on drilling days. Invoices are generated at the end of the job and are due based on the Master Service Agreement with client or Cathedral's signed Terms and Conditions, generally in 30 or 60 days. Cathedral
fixed or determinable prices based upon daily, hourly or job rates.
(j) Government grants
The Company applied IAS 20 "Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government assistance" in relation to receiving the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS"), the Canadian Emergency Rent Subsidy ("CERS") and forgiveness of the U.S. Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan. Government assistance is recognized only when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with any conditions attached to the grant and the grant will be received. The amounts are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes the expenses for the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. The Company has elected to present these amounts net of the related expense (note 16).
(k) Finance income and costs
Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, bank charges and other interest and foreign exchange gains or losses. Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.
(l) Leases
(i) Lessee
At the inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. The Company then determines if the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset throughout the period of use and that, the Company has the right to direct the use of the identified assets. The term of the lease is defined as the non-cancellable period of the lease, plus periods in which there is reasonable certainty that the Company will exercise and option to extend or to cancel the lease.
When a lease is identified, a right of use asset and a lease liability are recognized at the present value of the lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or if that rate is not determinable at the Company's incremental rate of borrowing. Payments on the lease have a finance cost component, which are reported on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, and a liability repayment portion.
The initial cost of right of use assets are adjusted for any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs. Right of use assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the assets. Right of use assets are presented net of accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
- (ii) Lessor
Leases, including subleases, which transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the property to the lessee are accounted for as finance leases, while all other leases are accounted for as operating leases.
Finance leases are recorded as a net investment in a finance lease. The present value of minimum lease receivable under such arrangements are recorded as an investment in finance lease and the finance income is recognized in a manner that produces a consistent rate of return on the investment in the finance lease and is included in revenue.
Operating lease and sublease income is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as it is earned over the term of the lease.
(m) Income tax
Income tax expense comprises 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.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. However, as the Company's Canadian entity has a history of recent tax losses, the Company only recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that there is convincing other evidence that sufficient taxable income will be available to realize the tax pools.
(n) Earnings per share
Cathedral presents basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") data for its common shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprise share options granted to employees, directors and consultants.
4. Determination of fair values
A number of Cathedral accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Currently all amounts are recognized at their amortized cost. Fair values would be determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
(a) Trade receivables
The fair value of trade receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. This fair value is determined for disclosure purposes.
(b) Non-derivative financial liabilities
Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.
(c) Share-based payment transactions
The fair value of the employee share options is measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Measurement inputs include the share price on measurement date, the exercise price of the instrument, the expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), the weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behavior), the expected dividends, forfeiture rate per annum and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account in determining fair value.
5. Acquisitions
On July 23, 2021, the Company announced acquisition of Precision Drilling Corporation's ("Precision") directional drilling for a purchase price of $6,350. The Transaction includes the drilling business (including its operations facility in Nisku, Alberta which the Company intends to resell), and a $3,000 cash from Precision to support growth and expansion of Cathedral, including continuing the buildout of RapidFire[TM] measurement-while-drilling guidance systems and nDurance[TM] drilling motors. Additionally, the Transaction is expected to enhance margins as expenses related to rental equipment used by Precision are replaced with proprietary Cathedral tools.
Cathedral issued
of Cathedral at a price of $0.60 per common share within a two-year period after closing. In addition to a 4-month statutory hold period on the Consideration Shares, the parties have agreed to contractual restrictions on resale as follows: 25% of the Consideration Shares are restricted until January 22, 2022; a further 25% of the Consideration Shares are restricted until July 22, 2022; and a further 50% of the Consideration Shares are restricted until July 22, 2023, subject to certain exceptions.
The Company allocated the $6,350 purchase as follows:
-
Cash $3,000
-
Land and building $1,500; and
-
Equipment $1,850.
The Company expensed $139 in costs related to the Transaction. As the acquired assets were integrated into Cathedral's existing directional drilling operations it is impracticable to breakout the revenue and profit or loss of the acquired assets since the acquisition.
In addition, on September 7, 2021 the Company
Alberta-based directional drilling company, for a purchase price of $1,500 and allocated $1,485 to equipment and $15 to inventory related to service of those tools. The purchase price was satisfied through the issuance of 3,464,204 common shares of Cathedral to Valiant. These shares are subject to a 4-month statutory hold period. The Company expensed $41 in costs related to this acquisition. The principal owner of Valiant, Mr. Vaugn Spengler, entered into a long-term performance-based agreement to remain with Cathedral and will continue to focus on opportunities to support and expand the existing customer base.

Review for impairment and direct write-offs
The Company assesses whether there are any external and internal indicators of impairment that exist for
indicators of
impairment existed.
In the prior year, the Company determined that sufficient impairment indicators existed directional drilling CGU. As a result, the Company recorded impairment / write-downs totaling $6,285 associated with certain right-of-use assets (see note 11) that were determined to be no longer in use during the year ended December 31, 2020. Additionally, there were write-downs of intangible assets (see note 10) totaling $160 related to projects in progress where there was uncertainty related to the ultimate commercialization of the project in a reasonable time frame.
The recoverable amount of the CGU was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on value-in-use. This was higher than the fair value less costs to sell model. Inherent in the value in use approach there are key assumptions that are subjective and represent reasonable estimates with respect to factors affecting operations. These assumptions are sensitive to change and could affect fair value. The discount rate used to calculate the net der the nature of the imates of pricing, activity levels, costs to maintain equipment and a pre tax discount rate of 17% per annum. A terminal value was used based on the annual growth rate of 2% for future cash
-
The most sensitive inputs to the value in use model at December 31, 2020 were the discount rate and the U.S. revenue growth rates: A 0.5% increase in the discount rate would have resulted in an impairment of $2,700; and
-
A 1% decrease to U.S. activity growth in each of 2021 and 2022 would have resulted in an impairment of $900.
10. Intangible assets
materials and wages related to equipment development and improvement. The Company reviews the accumulated costs at least quarterly. The 2021 internally developed additions contain $nil of technology group wages related to new product development (2020 - $251).
In 2020 write-downs of $160 were recorded on intangible projects in progress where there was uncertainty related to commercialization of the project within a reasonable time frame.

In 2020 Q3, the Company entered into a sublease for one of its properties and in 2021 Q2, the Company entered into a sublease on another property that went into effect in 2021 Q3. These subleases expire in April 2023 and June 2023 respectively and as neither transfers substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of the property to the lessee, these subleases are treated as operating leases. In 2021 a recovery of $768 was recorded
(2020 - $549) based upon the discounted value of expected sublease payments.

13. Loans and borrowings
Bank facility
The Company's bank credit facility (the "Facility") consists of a $12,000 extendible revolving credit facility with a single lender which was amended and extended in 2021 Q2 to expire June 30, 2023. The Facility is secured by a general security agreement over all present and future personal property. The . The Facility 1.75% to 3 3.00% to 4.25% with interest payable monthly. Interest rate spreads for the Facility depend on the level of funded debt compared to the 12 month trailing Credit Agreement EBITDA. The Facility provides a means to lock in a portion of the debt at interest rates through bankers' acceptances spread on the date the BA was entered into.
In June 2021, the Company amended and extended its Facility. Commencing with and ending with the f the definition of Credit Agreement EBITDA will be based on pro-rating Credit Agreement EBITDA to a 12. The calculations are as follows:
-
For the fiscal period ending 2021 Q3, the Credit Agreement EBITDA is the calculated amount for the 3 months of 2021 Q3 times four; nths of
-
2021 Q3 plus the 3 months of 2021 Q4 times two;
-
For the fiscal period ending 2022 Q1, the Credit Agreement EBITDA is the calculated amount for the 3 months of 2021 Q3 plus the 3 months of 2021 Q4 plus the 3 months of 2022 Q1 divided by 3 and then times 4;
-
During the Consolidated EBITDA Annualization Period, the Facility will bear interest at the maximum rates for the ranges noted;
-
The Company, at its one-time option, can choose to exit the Consolidated EBITDA Annualization Period and revert back to the original definition of Credit Agreement EBITDA and the Facility will bear interest at the applicable rates. For the fiscal period ending June 30, 2022 , the Credit Agreement EBITDA will revert back to the trailing 12-month calculation.
The Facility also features the following amendments:
There is no cap in place and the Company has access to the full $12,000 Facility;
- Aggregate capital expenditures (excluding non-cash utilization of existing inventory) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, are not to exceed $9,000; and
will no longer be tested after 2021 Q2.
The financial covenants associated with the Facility that will be tested commencing 2021 Q3 are:
-
Consolidated funded debt to consolidated Credit Agreement EBITDA ratio shall not exceed 3.0:1; and
-
Consolidated Credit Agreement EBITDA to consolidated interest ratio shall not be less than 2.5:1.
Compliance with Facility covenants
At December 31, 2021, the Company had drawn $5,035 of its bank facility and had $2,898 in cash. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2021.
Subsequent to year end, the Company amended its credit facility as described in note 23.
Current facility - Highly Affected Sectors Credit
In conjunction with the credit amendment and extension referenced above in June 2021, the Company applied for and received a further $1,000 of liquidity from HASCAP. The incremental $1,000 non-revolving loan is fully drawn and is in addition to ,000 Facility. The demand loan has an interest rate of 4% and is amortized over a ten-year period. Repayment terms are interest only for the first year, and principal plus interest for the remaining nine years, payable on a monthly basis. The HASCAP Loan is secured by a general security interest over all present and after acquired personal property of the Company granted in favour of ATB.
Paycheck Protection Program
On May 8, 2020, Cathedral received approval of an application for a of $750 USD. The proceeds were The loan proceeds were forgiven accordance with certain U.S. Treasury guidelines. At September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a reduction in cost of sales and SGA wages in the amount of $750 USD.

Issuance of share options
The Company's share-based compensation plan is a "rolling number" type option plan which provides that the number of authorized but unissued common shares that may be subject to options granted under the share option plan at any time can be up to 10% of the number of common shares outstanding from time to time.
Under the plan, the exercise price of each option at the date of issuance equals the volume adjusted weighted average trading value of the Company's common shares for the five days prior to the grant and have a maximum term of three years. Options vest over a period of two years.
A summary of the status of the Company's equity-based compensation plan as at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and changes during the years then

15. Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings per share
The calculation of basic earnings per share at December 31, 2021 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $(8,626) (2020 $(27,731)) and a weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 65,030,795 (2020 49,468,117), calculated as follows:

Risk management framework
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company Company risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company
Trade receivables
The Company o credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the demographics of the Company these factors may have an influence on credit risk. Approximately 17% of the Company revenues are attributable to sales transactions with one customer (2020 - 29% from one customer).
The Company has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness before the Company standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company . Customers that fail to meet the Company
In monitoring customer credit risk, customers are grouped according to their credit characteristics, including whether they are an individual or legal entity, geographic location, industry, aging profile, maturity and existence of previous financial difficulties. Customers th are closely monitored, and future sales may be made on a prepayment basis.
The Company does not require collateral in respect of trade receivables.
The Company establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade receivables and investments. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of losses that have been incurred but not yet identified. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets.

The Company believes that the unimpaired amounts that are past due are still collectible, bas
Impairment losses
The allowance accounts in respect of trade receivables are used to record impairment losses unless the Company is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible; at that point the amounts are considered irrecoverable and are written off against the financial asset directly.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company
sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company
The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments and excluding the impact of netting agreements based upon the secured revolving term loan being renewed on the same terms and not converted to a non-revolving term loan.

It is not expected that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier, or at significantly different amounts.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.
Currency risk
The Company is exposed to currency risk on working capital and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Company entities, CAD and USD. The currencies in which these transactions primarily are denominated are CAD and USD.
Generally, borrowings are denominated in currencies that match the cash flows generated by the underlying operations of the Company, primarily dollar. This provides a partial economic hedge without derivatives being entered into and therefore hedge accounting is not applied in these circumstances.
Cathedral's foreign currency policy is to monitor foreign current risk exposure in its areas of operations and mitigate that risk where possible by matching foreign currency denominated expense with revenues denominated in foreign currencies. Cathedral strives to maintain limited amounts of cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currency on hand and attempts to limit its exposure to foreign currency through collecting and paying foreign currency denominated balance in a timely fashion.

Sensitivity analysis
A 10% strengthening of CAD against USD at December 31, 2021 would increase (decrease) equity and other comprehensive income by $138 (2020 - $475). The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2020, albeit that the reasonably possible foreign exchange rate variances were different.
A weakening of CAD at December 31, 2021 would have had the equal but opposite effect on USD amounts, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.
