AMMPOWER CORP. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements February 28, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
AMMPOWER CORP. (the “Company” or “AmmPower”) is a resource exploration company with an increasing focus on clean energy. On September 18, 2020, the Company received conditional approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) for the listing of its common shares on the CSE and on October 6, 2020, commenced trading on the CSE under the symbol “SOLD” which was subsequently changed to “AMMP”. The Company is also listed on the Frankfurt stock exchange under “601A” and OTC under “AMMPF”.
On March 31, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding common shares of AmTek Inc. (“AmTek”). As consideration, the Company issued 12,000,000 common shares of the Company. AmTek is the owner of the Whabouchi South lithium exploration property located in the James Bay/Eeyou Istche region of Quebec and is working on the development of a proprietary technology to produce green ammonia, a potential carbon-free energy source. The Company also issued 960,000 common shares as finders fee. Subsequent to the year end, the Company reorganized its business and assets into two distinct corporate divisions: AmmPower Lithium & Mineral Resources and AmmPower Ammonia & Alternative Energy. The new corporate structure will allow it to better focus on and present the entirety of its asset portfolio.
The Company was incorporated on December 3, 2019 in British Columbia. The head office and principal address of the Company are located at 1000 – 409 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1T2. The Company’s registered and records office is located at 2200 HSBC Building, 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3E8.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
(a) Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), Interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) and in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on April 27, 2022.
(b) Basis of Measurement
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies set out in Note 3. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company.

AMMPOWER CORP. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements February 28, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION – (cont’d)
(c) Going Concern
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. Different bases of measurement may be appropriate if the Company was not expected to continue operations for the foreseeable future. At February 28, 2022, the Company has not achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $33,190,436 since inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. The above material uncertainties cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon successful results from its exploration and evaluation activities, its ability to attain profitable operations to generate funds and/or its ability to raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet its current and future obligations. Although the Company has been successful in the past in raising funds to continue operations, there is no assurance it will be able to do so in the future.
There was a global pandemic outbreak of COVID-19. To date, there have been a large number of temporary business closures, quarantines and a general reduction in consumer activity in Canada. The outbreak has caused companies and various governmental bodies to impose travel, gathering and other public health restrictions. While these effects are expected to be temporary, the duration of the various disruptions to businesses locally and internationally and the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Similarly, the Company cannot estimate whether or to what extent this outbreak and the potential financial impact may extend. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 will or may impact the Company is uncertain and these factors are beyond the Company’s control; however, it is possible that COVID-19 may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial data is based on accounting principles and practices consistent with those used in the preparation of the audited consolidated financial statements as at May 31, 2021.
Inventories
Inventory consist primarily of raw materials. Inventory is measured at lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, and net realizable value. Costs of raw materials include the purchased cost. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. If the Company determines that the estimated net realizable value of its inventory is less than the carrying value of such inventory, it records a charge to cost of goods sold.

AMMPOWER CORP. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements February 28, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (cont’d)
Furnitures and Equipment
Furnitures and equipment’s are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The cost of an item of equipment consists of the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located.
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write-off the cost of the furniture and equipment, less their estimated residual value, using the declining-balance or straight-line method at the following annual rates:
| Computer equipment | Straight-line 5 years |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | Straight-line 5 to 15 years |
| Furniture and fixtures | Straight-line 7 years |
| Leasehold improvements | Straight-line 5 to 15 years |
Furnitures and equipment are derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of the asset, determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is recognized in profit or loss.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Policies
Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are mandatory for future accounting periods are as follows:
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1)
The amendments to IAS1 provide a more general approach to the classification of liabilities based on the contractual arrangements in place at the reporting date. These amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in net loss in the year of the change, if the change affects that year only, or in the year of the change and future years, if the change affects both.
Critical judgments in applying accounting policies
Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements within the next financial year are discussed below:

AMMPOWER CORP. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements February 28, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited – Prepared by Management)
4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS – (cont’d)
Going Concern
The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern require significant judgement. See Note 2(c).
Title to Mineral Property Interests
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.
Price Risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity and equity prices.

The maximum exposure to loss arising from these advances is equal to their total carrying amounts.
Fair Values
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related parties. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of their current nature.
Fair Value Hierarchy

-
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; and
-
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
-
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

11. ACQUISITION OF AMTEK INC.
On March 31, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding common shares of AmTek. As consideration, the Company issued 12,000,000 common shares of the Company fair valued at $0.95 per share and discounted using the average strike put-option model, which resulted in a present value of $8,753,000 on acquisition date. AmTek is the owner of the Whabouchi South lithium exploration property located in the James Bay/Eeyou Istche region of Quebec and is working on the development of a proprietary technology to produce green ammonia, a potential carbon-free energy source. AmTek also had an agreement with Process Research ORTECH Inc. (“Ortech”) with a term of 5 years to develop proprietary scientific solutions, methodologies, and technologies (collectively, the “Technologies”) for the production of green ammonia. This was subsequently amended on April 21, 2021. Based on the amended agreement, the Company will pay for all mutually agreed upon reasonable costs and have the sole right to use, and market and sell, the Technologies. Ortech will assist in commercializing the Technologies and in the development and/or the construction of production units, devices, and facilities. The Company agreed to grant Ortech a 1% royalty of revenues derived from the Technologies, which may be reduced to 0% by the Company by making a payment of $1,000,000 at any time. As at May 31, 2021, the Company had advanced $185,211 to Ortech, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and deposit.
The transaction has been accounted for as an asset acquisition on the basis that AmTek does not meet the definition of a business as it had no ongoing business operations. Accordingly, the acquisition is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based payment whereby the Company issued shares in exchange for the net assets of AmTek. The Company also issued 960,000 common shares as finders fee which was valued at $912,000.
The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition as follows:
| Total | ||
|---|---|---|
| Consideration paid: | ||
| Fair value of shares issued | $ | 8,753,000 |
| 960,000 common shares issued as finder’s fee at a value of $0.95 per share | 912,000 | |
| $ | 9,665,000 | |
| Net assets acquired (liabilities) | ||
| Exploration and evaluation assets | $ | 8,707 |
| Due to related parties | (6,707) | |
| 2,000 | ||
| Seed research, development and technology expense | 9,663,000 | |
| $ | 9,665,000 |
The Company has determined that the consideration paid on the development of the proprietary technology to produce green ammonia, does not qualify as development costs for capitalization, accordingly, the amount have been expensed to seed research, development and technology expense.
