Baylin Technologies Inc. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Canadian dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Baylin Technologies Inc. (“Baylin”) was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of Ontario on September 24, 2013. Baylin's registered office is located at 181 Bay Street, Suite 1800, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Baylin, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or the “Group”), is a leading diversified global wireless technology company. Baylin focuses on research, design, development, manufacturing and sales of passive and active radio frequency (“RF”) and terrestrial microwave products and services. The Company’s products are marketed and sold under the brand names Galtronics, Advantech Wireless, Alga Microwave and Mitec VSAT. Baylin’s common shares and convertible debentures are publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: BYL and BYL.DB).

Approval of financial statements

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 have been prepared by management of Baylin and were authorized for issuance in accordance with a resolution of the board of directors passed on November 10, 2021.

NOTE 2: BASIS OF PREPARATION

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Annual Financial Statements”), which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As of September 30, 2021 there have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies as outlined in Note 3 of the Annual Financial Statements, except as disclosed in Note 4.

NOTE 4: DISCLOSURES OF NEW STANDARDS ADOPTED AND PRIOR TO ADOPTION

New standards and amendments adopted

Certain new standards and amendments that have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company became effective on January 1, 2021 are as follows:

On August 27, 2020, the IASB issued 'Interest Rate Benchmark Reform — Phase 2’ which amend IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and

  • 7 -

Baylin Technologies Inc. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Canadian dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

Measurement, and IFRS 16 Leases. The amendments require additional disclosures for users to understand the nature and extent of risks arising from the interest rate benchmark reform and how the entity manages those risks.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

The following are new standards that have been issued but are not yet in effect and which are relevant to the Group:

On January 23, 2020, the IASB issued Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1) providing a more general approach to the classification of liabilities under IAS 1 based on the contractual arrangements in place at the reporting date. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations that added an explicit statement that an acquirer does not recognize contingent assets acquired in a business combination. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The Company did not have a business combination since the issuance of the standard but expects to apply the amendment for future business combinations.

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment which prohibit deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from selling items produced while bringing that asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Instead, an entity recognizes the proceeds from selling such items, and the cost of producing those items, in profit or loss. An entity applies the amendments retrospectively only to items of property, plant and equipment that are brought to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the entity first applies the amendments. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets providing guidance regarding the costs a company should include as the cost of fulfilling a contract when assessing whether a contract is onerous. The amendments specify that the cost of fulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relate directly to the contract and can either be incremental costs of fulfilling that contract or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with comparative figures not restated. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, which clarify which fees an entity includes when it applies the “10 per cent test” in assessing whether to derecognize a financial liability. An entity includes only fees paid or received between the entity (the borrower) and the lender, including fees paid or received by either the entity or the lender on the other’s behalf. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 5: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that have an effect on the application of the accounting policies and on the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in accounting estimates are reported in the period of the change in estimate.

Management regularly reviews and makes an assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. This assessment relies on significant judgements and assumptions, taking into account known future information, including whether events or conditions create material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the ability to continue as a going concern.

In assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management has a reasonable expectation that the Company will be able (i) to fund operating and debt service requirements for the next 12 months (see Note 7) and (ii) to refinance the Revolving Facility and Term Loan when they mature on March 29, 2022.

The provision for impairment of inventories assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The level of the provision is assessed by taking into account the recent sales experience, the ageing of inventories and other factors that affect inventory obsolescence.

There have been no other significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions made since the annual financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2020, except as discussed in Note 4. Impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have been considered as of September 30, 2021 when assessing accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions.

NOTE 6: GOODWILL

The Company previously determined that Advantech and Alga were one cash generating unit (“CGU”) and thus should be assessed as a combined group (“Advantech and Alga Group”). The Company performed an impairment test as at June 30, 2021 due to indications that the Advantech and Alga Group as a CGU may be impaired. The recoverable amount of the Company's goodwill was determined by a value-in-use calculation using a discounted cash flow model, based on a 5 year projection period, together with a terminal value. Key assumptions were those to which the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating units is most sensitive.

The following key assumptions were used in the discounted cash flow model for Advantech and Alga Group cash generating unit:

i. 20.5% pre-tax discount rate; ii. -26.0% per annum growth rate for year 1;

iii. 35.0% per annum growth rate for year 2;

  • iv. 20.0% per annum growth rate for year 3; v. 5.0% per annum growth rate for year 4; vi. 2.0% per annum growth rate for year 5 and subsequent to year 5

  • 9 -

Baylin Technologies Inc. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Canadian dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

Based on the impairment analysis performed, the Company concluded the recoverable amount of the CGU, was less than the carrying value at June 30, 2021, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge. The Company recorded an impairment expense of $15,908 included within operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

NOTE 7: CREDIT FROM BANKS AND LOANS

Canada

On March 29, 2019, Baylin entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Royal Bank of Canada and HSBC Bank Canada (collectively, the “Lenders”) pursuant to which the Lenders established in favour of the Company:

  • a revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”) for up to $20,000; and

  • a term facility (“Term Loan”) for up to $26,756.

The availability of the Revolving Facility is based on the Company’s accounts receivables and inventory balances. The interest rate on the Revolving Facility is determined based on the type of advance, the applicable margin and the Company’s Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and is payable monthly in arrears, as set out in the Credit Agreement. The interest rate on the Revolving Facility and the standby fee on the undrawn portion of the Revolving Facility as at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, were as follows:


September 30, 2021

December 31, 2020
Canadian dollar advances 4.95%
4.70%
US dollaradvances 6.25%
6.00%
LIBORate advances 3.59%
3.40%
Standby fee 0.70%
0.65%

The Group may draw on its available revolving credit lines under the Revolving Facility, the China loan (defined below) and the Korea loan (defined below) as needed. As at September 30, 2021, the aggregate revolving credit facilities of the Group were approximately $18,969, of which $10,675 was drawn and utilized. As at December 31, 2020, the aggregate revolving credit facilities of the Group were approximately $21,976, of which $10,129 was drawn and utilized.

As at September 30, 2021, $7,135 was outstanding, and as at December 31, 2020, $6,621 was outstanding, under the Revolving Facility.

The principal amount under the Term Loan was fully advanced in US dollars and was used to repay existing indebtedness. Quarterly principal payments in the amount of $956 commenced on June 30, 2019 with the scheduled interest payments for June 30 and September 30, 2021 being deferred with the consent of the Lenders. The interest rate on the Term Loan is determined based on the LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the applicable margin and the Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio and is payable quarterly in arrears.

Commencing July 26, 2019, the Company entered into an interest rate swap arrangement where the LIBO Rate portion of the interest rate on the Term Loan was fixed at 2% until maturity. The interest rate swap contract has been

  • 10 -

Baylin Technologies Inc. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Canadian dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

valued as a liability within other long-term liabilities on the balance sheet of $- as at September 30, 2021 and $482 at December 31, 2020. The fair value of the interest rate swap contract was valued using a future LIBOR curve. The Revolving Facility and Term Loan (together, the “Credit Facilities”) mature on March 29, 2022.

The Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Baylin's principal operating subsidiaries (other than those in Vietnam) and are secured by substantially all the assets of Baylin and the guarantors. The Credit Agreement includes certain financial covenants, including a Senior Debt to Equity Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), calculated on a quarterly basis, minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and minimum Liquidity (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement also includes other customary positive and negative covenants (including limitations on dispositions, additional debt, investments, financial assistance, distributions, capital expenditures and changes to the business), and events of default.

The Credit Agreement has previously been amended, most recently as of October 12, 2021. The effect of these amendments is that:

  • for the period from June 30 to December 31, 2021, there is no Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio, and for the quarters ending March 31, 2022 and following, the Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio will be 3.00:1.00; for the quarters ending December 31, 2021 and following, the Fixed Coverage Ratio remains at 1.15:1.00 but with the 12-month calculation period for determining compliance with the ratio to commence on July 1, 2021 on a cumulative basis;

  • there is no more minimum EBITDA covenant;

  • the Company is required at all times to maintain a minimum Liquidity of $10,000;

  • the maximum availability under the Revolving Facility has been reduced to $15,000;

  • the rate of interest that would otherwise apply at any time the Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio is equal to or more than 2.75:1.00 has been increased by 0.25%; and

  • the standby fee that would otherwise apply at any time the Senior Debt to EBITDA Ratio is equal to or more than 2.75:1.00 has been increased by 0.05%.

The amendments also included waivers of compliance with certain financial covenants for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2021.

China

The Company’s Chinese subsidiary has a $3,540 (December 31, 2020 - $3,508) short-term credit facility in Chinese Yuan and United States Dollar currency equivalent with the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank (“SPD”). The facility is secured by the Company’s Chinese subsidiary’s building. The loan interest rate is set at 1.55% plus the Chinese Central Bank lending rate. As at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the full balance was outstanding.

Korea

The Company’s Korean subsidiary has a South Korean Won equivalent $429 (December 31, 2020 - $468) shortterm credit facility with the Shinhan Bank. The facility is secured by an irrevocable letter of credit issued by Baylin

  • 11 -

Baylin Technologies Inc. Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) Canadian dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

to the lender in Korea. The loan interest rate is set at 1.4% plus the Korean Central Bank lending rate. As at September 30, 2021 and as at December 31, 2020, there was no amount outstanding under this facility.

Vietnam

On October 14, 2020, one of the Company’s subsidiaries in Vietnam (“GTD”) entered into a credit agreement (the “Vietnam Credit Agreement”) with HSBC Bank Vietnam Ltd. (“HSBC Vietnam”) pursuant to which HSBC Vietnam established a credit facility in favour of GTD for up to the Vietnamese Dong equivalent of $3,233 (the “Vietnam Loan”). As at September 30, 2021, $3,133 was outstanding, and as at December 31, 2020, no amount was outstanding, under the Vietnam Loan. The interest rate on the Vietnam Loan is determined based on the base lending rate in Vietnam plus a margin of up to 2% and is payable semi-annually in arrears. The Vietnam Loan matures on February 18, 2024 and the quarterly principal repayments commence on March 1, 2022. The Company’s other Vietnamese subsidiary (“GTV”) is a guarantor of the Vietnam Loan. The Vietnam Loan is secured by certain assets of GTD. The Vietnam Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants, for both GTD and GTV, including a Debt Service Coverage Ratio and a Tangible Net Worth Ratio (as defined in the Vietnam Credit Agreement). The Vietnam Credit Agreement also includes other customary covenants and events of default.

NOTE 8: CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

On July 10, 2018, the Company completed a public offering of 7,419,355 subscription receipts (“Subscription Receipts”) at $3.10 per Subscription Receipt and $17,250 principal amount of 6.5% extendible convertible unsecured debentures (“Debentures”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $40,250 (the “2018 Offering”). The Debentures bear interest at a rate of 6.5% per annum, payable in arrears semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 of each year and mature on July 10, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). On July 11, 2018, each Subscription Receipt was converted into one common share.

The Debentures are convertible at the holder’s option into common shares at any time prior to the close of business on the earlier of: (i) last business day before the Maturity Date; or (ii) if called for redemption, the business day immediately preceding the date specified by the Company for redemption, at a conversion price of $3.85 per common share (the “Conversion Price”), being a ratio of approximately 260 common shares per $1 principal amount of Debentures, subject to adjustment in certain events in accordance with a convertible debenture indenture dated July 10, 2018 (the “Indenture”).

The Debentures are not redeemable by the Company prior to July 10, 2021 (except in certain limited circumstances following a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture). On or after July 10, 2021, and prior to the Maturity Date, the Company may, at its option, subject to providing not more than 60 days’ and not less than 30 days’ prior notice, redeem the Debentures, in whole or, from time to time, in part, at par plus accrued and unpaid interest provided that the volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) for the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days preceding the date on which notice of redemption is given (the “Current Market Price”) is not less than 125% of the Conversion Price. The Company may, at its option, subject to regulatory approval, elect to satisfy its obligation to pay the principal amount of Debentures on redemption or at maturity, provided no Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) has occurred and is continuing at such time, upon not more than 60 days’ and not less than 30 days’ prior written notice, by delivering

that number of freely tradeable common shares obtained by dividing the principal amount of the Debentures being repaid by 95% of the Current Market Price on the date of redemption or maturity, as applicable.

Following approval of the holders of Debentures on April 8, 2021 and of the shareholders of the Company on May 11, 2021, the Indenture was amended (the Amendment”) to reduce, for a period of 30 days, the Conversion Price from $3.85 to $1.11, the current market price of the common shares at the time the Amendment become effective on May 19, 2021 determined in accordance with the Amendment (the “New Conversion Price”). The terms of the Debentures otherwise remained unchanged. As a result of Amendment, holders of $12,135 principal amount of the Debentures converted their Debentures into 10,932,429 common shares of the Company at the New Conversion Price, leaving $5,115 of the Debentures outstanding. The 30-day period during which the New Conversion Price remained in effect ended on June 18, 2021, following which the Conversion Price reverted to $3.85.

Upon a Change of Control of the Company, the Company may be required to repurchase the Debentures, at the option of the holder, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Debentures outstanding, plus accrued interest.

On May 14, 2020, the Company offered holders of the Debentures the option to receive common shares (at 85% of their current market price) as an alternative to cash as payment of interest due on the interest payment date on June 30, 2020. The Company issued 355,840 common shares for a total of $329 to holders who exercised this option.

NOTE 9: EMPLOYEE BENEFIT LIABILITIES

The Group accounts for that part of the payment of compensation that is not covered by contributions in defined contribution plans as a defined benefit plan for which an employee benefit liability is recognized and for which the Group deposits amounts in qualifying insurance policies.

The liability for employee benefits shown in the statement of financial position reflects the present value of the defined benefit obligation less the fair value of the plan assets. The present value of the benefits is determined at year end, based on actuarial valuations.

NOTE 10: SHARE CAPITAL AND SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

  • a. On August 13, 2020, the shareholders of the Company approved a new Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”). The Omnibus Plan permits the board of directors to grant a wide range of long-term incentive awards to participants. The awards include deferred share units (“DSUs”), which are for directors only, performance share units (“PSUs”), restricted share units (“RSUs”) and stock options. The Omnibus Plan replaced the separate Deferred Share Unit Plan (“DSU Plan”), Stock Option Plan and Employee Share Compensation Plan (“ESCP”). Awards granted after August 13, 2020 are governed by the Omnibus Plan. Awards granted before that date will continue to be governed by the plan under which they were granted. The number of common shares issuable under the Omnibus Plan, and any other security-based compensation arrangements, including the DSU Plan, Stock Option Plan and ESCP, may not exceed 10% of the number of common shares outstanding from time to time. However, the Omnibus Plan is an “evergreen plan”, meaning that any awards that are exercised or settled or terminated without being exercised or settled are available for subsequent grant and do not reduce the number of common shares available to be granted. There are also limitations on the number of common shares that may be issued to insiders.

  • b. The Company may settle DSUs, PSUs and RSUs in (i) common shares issued from treasury, (ii) common shares purchased in the market, (iii) cash or (iv) a combination of common shares and cash. Holders of stock options may exercise their options, (i) by paying the option exercise price or (ii) with the consent of the Company, through a cashless exercise or by receiving a cash payment in lieu of shares.

  • c. In the case of DSUs, unless otherwise approved by the board of directors, eligible directors must elect to receive at least 50% and up to 100% of their annual retainers in DSUs. The DSUs are issued on a monthly basis while the director serves as a board member and vest immediately. The DSUs are settled after the member ceases to be a director.

The following table lists the number of DSUs outstanding as at September 30, 2021 and 2020:

  • d. In the case of stock options, at the time of granting a stock option, the board of directors will determine (i) the exercise price, being not less than the fair market value of the common shares, (ii) the vesting provisions, generally being three to five years, with an equal number of common shares vesting on each anniversary of the grant date, and (iii) the expiry date, generally being no more than seven years after the grant date.

Advantech Wireless Inc.

On January 17, 2018, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company acquired from Advantech Wireless Inc. and certain of its affiliates 100% of the assets (the “Advantech Acquisition”) of their radio frequency, terrestrial microwave and antenna equipment divisions. Advantech Wireless Inc. (now known as SpaceBridge Inc. (“SpaceBridge”)) was owned and controlled by David Gelerman, a director of the Company until April 3, 2020.

Pursuant to the terms of the Advantech Acquisition, SpaceBridge was entitled to additional compensation of between $750 and $3,000 per year in each of 2018 and 2019 conditional on the Advantech Wireless business meeting certain EBITDA targets in those years. The EBITDA targets were not met in 2018 and 2019. On June 1, 2020 SpaceBridge contested that the 2019 EBITDA targets were not met. The Company is opposing the objection.

SpaceBridge and certain of its affiliates acted as an agent for the Company. As at September 30, 2021, $2,439 was due to the Company and included in trade receivables, and $1,495 was due to the agent included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. As at December 31, 2020, $2,506 due to the Company was included in trade receivables and $1,495 due to the agent was included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $86 related to the sale of goods to SpaceBridge and certain of its affiliates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized revenue in the amount of $74 related to the sale of goods to SpaceBridge.

The Company did not provide services to SpaceBridge or its affiliates during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $397 was included within trade receivables.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is both a plaintiff and defendant in various claims arising out of the Advantech Acquisition. In October 2018, the Company received a payment from the escrow agent of approximately $1,800 as a result of an indemnity claim made by the Company against the portion of the cash purchase price being held in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Advantech Acquisition. The sum was released by the escrow agent because SpaceBridge failed to contest the indemnity claim within the prescribed time period. After the payment, SpaceBridge filed an application for relief from forfeiture to have the sum returned to the escrow agent. The Company is opposing the application. No date has been set to hear the application.

The Company has filed statements of claim for certain other indemnity obligations of SpaceBridge pursuant to the terms of the Advantech Acquisition. The claims, in the aggregate, total approximately $5,596. SpaceBridge has filed statements of defence as well as statements of counterclaim. In July 2019, SpaceBridge delivered multiple indemnity claims pursuant to the terms of the Advantech Acquisition, seeking to set off the amounts being claimed by the Company. The Company has contested the indemnity claims.

In June 2019, SpaceBridge filed an application asserting oppression for, among other things, unspecified amounts in relation to the 2018 earn out under the terms of the Advantech Acquisition and for shares in the Company for which set-off has been claimed by the Company. SpaceBridge alleges that Mr. Gelerman was improperly denied from participating in the management of the Company, resulting in a lower earn out. The Company will defend the allegations. No date has been set for the application related to claims for compensation. The issue of whether the Company is entitled to assert set-off on the common shares was the subject of an appeal by the Company from a lower court ruling. In February 2021, the Ontario Court of Appeal found in favour of the Company, overturning the lower court’s ruling and confirming that the Company is entitled to a right of set-off on the shares. On July 29, 2021, the Supreme Court of Canada denied (with costs), SpaceBridge’s application for leave to appeal the judgment of the Court of Appeal.

In January 2020, SpaceBridge filed a statement of claim claiming damages against the Company for various breaches of the asset purchase and other agreements related to the Advantech Acquisition. These claims include the multiple indemnity claims previously made by SpaceBridge as well as additional claims for breach of an agreement governing transitional services provided by the Company following the Advantech Acquisitions and the Consulting Agreement. The claims include loss of business opportunities, improper use of SpaceBridge’s books and records, unpaid rent on premise subleased from SpaceBridge as part of the Advantech Acquisition, diminution in the value of Baylin common shares payable as part of the consulting fees under the Consulting Agreement and conversion of inventory after completion of the Advantech Acquisition. Where specified, the amount of damages claimed by SpaceBridge under all claims is at least $7,165.

In the case of the Company’s claims under the asset purchase agreement for breaches of representations related to working capital and closing inventory levels, documentary discovery is currently being conducted and oral discovery is expected to occur, once scheduled, in 2022.

The Company is unable to determine at this time whether it will be entitled to recover or required to pay any amounts related to these legal proceedings. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded in respect of the claims other than certain rent amounts.

Alga

On July 11, 2018, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Alga Microwave Inc. (“Alga”) through a newly incorporated, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Alga Acquisition”).

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020, $117 was recognized in revenue for premises leased to a company partly owned by Michael Perelshtein, a former employee of Alga.

Legal Proceedings

In the third quarter of 2019, the former shareholders of Alga filed an application asserting that an event occurred which triggered the payment of an earnout in the amount of $1,000 as detailed in the share purchase agreement. The Company does not agree that the payment has been triggered and has contested the application. No date has been set for the application. The Company is unable to determine at this time whether it will be required to pay any amounts related to these legal proceedings. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded in respect of the claim.

In December 2020, a former employee of Alga filed an application asserting he had been constructively dismissed and claiming damages of $543. The Company is opposing the application and has cross-claimed against the former employee. Alga has made a separate claim against the employee and others, claiming damages for approximately $2 million, alleging, among other things, a conspiracy to damage Alga’s business, wrongful interference with Alga’s economic relations and breach of fiduciary duty. The defendants in the previous action have started a separate proceeding against Alga and others claiming the previous action is an abuse of procedure. These four actions have now been joined in one proceeding. The Company is unable to determine at this time whether it will be required to pay any amounts related to these legal proceedings. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded in respect of the claim.

Other

The Company retains the services of Mr. Jeffrey C. Royer, pursuant to a services agreement between Mr. Royer and the Company dated as of January 1, 2015, to fulfill the position of Chairman of the board of directors and to provide related strategic leadership and guidance to the board of directors and management of the Company.

Level 1: The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted (unadjusted) market prices at the end of the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the group is the current bid price.

Level 2: The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over–the–counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in level 2.

Level 3: If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. The present value of future cash flows based on observable yield curves was the valuation technique used to determine the fair value of the interest rate swap.
