1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Beacn Wizardry and Magic Inc. (formerly Germinate Capital Ltd.) ("Beacn" or the "Company") was incorporated and domiciled in Canada under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) as a "Capital Pool Company" as defined in the TSX Venture Exchange's (the "Exchange") Listing Policy 2.4.
On October 29, 2021, the Company completed the share exchange transaction with Beacon Hill Innovations Ltd. ("Beacon") (Note 11) which constituted the Company's Qualifying Transaction ("QT"). Beacon was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) in February 2020 and its principal business focus is be a supplier of tech peripherals for Gamers, YouTubers, Podcasters and anyone creating content on the internet. Upon completion of the QT, the Company began trading under its new name on the Exchange with the symbol "BECN" on November 2, 2021.
For accounting purposes, it has been determined that Beacn was the accounting acquiree and Beacon was the accounting acquirer since the shareholders of the former Beacon now control Beacn, based on the guidance of IFRS 10, "Consolidated Financial Statements", and IFRS 3, "Business Combinations" and IFRS 2, "Share-based Payment", to identify the accounting acquirer (Note 11). These audited consolidated financial statements are prepared as a continuation of the financial statements of Beacon, reflecting the equity instruments of Beacn. As a result, comparative information included herein is solely those of Beacon. For simplicity, transactions undertaken by Beacon are referred to as being undertaken by Beacn in the recent audited consolidated financial statements and these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize it assets and discharge it liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company earned a net income of \$240,156 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. To September 30, 2022, even though the Company has earned revenue from operations, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to attain sufficient profitable operations and/or obtain necessary equity or other financing to continue operations.
There are material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the appropriateness of the going concern assumption. The current market conditions and volatility increase the uncertainly of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern given the need to continue research and development, purchase inventory, establish profitable sales and raise additional funds. The Company will continue to search for new or alternate sources of financing but anticipates that the current market conditions may impact the ability to source such funds. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at the present time. These factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company's business or ability to raise funds.
The Company's business financial condition and results of operations may be further negatively affected by economic and other consequences from Russia's military action against Ukraine and the sanctions imposed in response to that action in late February 2022. While the Company expects any direct impacts, of the pandemic and the war in the Ukraine, to the business to be limited, the indirect impacts on the economy and industries in general could negatively affect the business and may make it more difficult for it to raise equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be impacted by adverse consequences that may be brought about on its business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows in the future.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION - STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" ("IAS 34") using accounting policies consistent with IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC").
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. In addition, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IAS 34 requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared on the basis of IFRS standards that are published at the time of preparation.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB on a basis consistent with those followed in the Company's most recent annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all note disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. Operating results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.
4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
The fair values of the Company's cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, convertible loan, and promissory note approximate their carrying values.
The Company's financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk.
a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary exposure to credit risk is on its bank account. The Company's bank account is held with a major bank in Canada; accordingly, the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk.
b) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk of losses that arise as a result of changes in contracted interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.

4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT, (cont'd)
c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company controls liquidity risk by ensuring that it has sufficient cash resources to pay for its financial obligations. As at September 30, 2022, the Company had a cash balance of \$728,455 to settle current liabilities of \$312,931.

7. CONVERTIBLE LOAN
On September 14, 2021, the Company entered into a \$500,000 convertible loan agreement ("Loan") with two parties ("Lenders"). The Loan is convertible, at the option of the Lenders, into the units of the Company. Each unit is convertible into one common share of the Company and one-half of one share purchase warrant ("Warrant") of the Company at a rate of \$0.30 per unit. Each Warrant is exercisable into a common share of the Company at \$0.60 for a period of 2 years. The Loan, if not converted, has a maturity date of April 29, 2023, is subject to an interest rate of 5% per annum, and a one-time setup fee of \$1,250. Upon completion of the QT, on October 29, 2021, \$250,000 of the convertible loan was converted into common shares (Note 10(b) and 11). The equity portion of the remaining convertible loan (\$36,040 was allocated to conversion rights as a residual based on the estimated present value of the loan (\$213,960). During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, \$17,639 in accretion expense was recorded.
8. PROMISSORY NOTE
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the "Note") with a shareholder of the Company with a maturity date of December 31, 2024. The Note was without interest until December 31, 2020, and thereafter incurs interest at a rate of 4% per annum, and payable quarterly. The Company can repay all or part of the Note at any time without penalty. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company incurred \$8,250 (2021 - \$8,250) in interest expense.
9. SHARE CAPITAL

10. QUALIFYING TRANSACTION
On October 29, 2021, the Company and Beacon completed their previously announced QT. The QT was completed by way of share exchange pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares in the capital of Beacon in exchange for the issuance of 32,151,003 common shares in the capital of the Company to the former shareholders of Beacon. The Company also issued 3,150,000 stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company, which can be exercised at a price of \$0.30 per share until October 29, 2026.
The Subscription Receipts (see Note 9) converted automatically for no additional consideration into Units upon the occurrence of the following events (collectively, the "Escrow Release Conditions"): (i) all conditions to the Exchange's conditional approval of the Transaction having been satisfied or waived; (ii) all conditions to the Exchange's conditional approval for the listing of the Shares to be issued pursuant to the Private Placement and the Shares underlying the Warrants having been satisfied or waived; and (iii) the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement.
In connection with the QT, the Company completed a concurrent financing (Note 9) totaling \$1,500,000.
In accounting for the acquisition as a reverse takeover, no goodwill or intangible asset in respect to the stock exchange listing has been recorded. For accounting purposes, Beacon, the legal subsidiary, has been treated as the accounting acquirer, and the Company, the legal parent, has been treated as the accounting acquiree in these consolidated financial statements. Beacon's assets and liabilities are included in these consolidated financial statements at their carrying values, which were considered to represent their current fair values.
The QT did not constitute a business combination under IFRS 3. The QT is accounted for in these consolidated financial statements as a continuation of the financial statements of Beacon, subject to a deemed issuance of shares and re-capitalization of the resulting issuer's equity. The excess of the estimated fair value of Beacn's pre-transaction common shares over the current carrying value of its net identifiable assets was allocated to listing expense. The acquisition was measured based on the current fair value of Beacon's 4,800,000 common shares outstanding deemed reissued at \$0.30 per share, allocated to its net identifiable assets as follows:
| Cash | \$ 191,796 |
|---|---|
| Receivabes | 5,808 |
| Total fair value of net assets acquired by Beacon | 197,604 |
| Listing expense | 1,242,396 |
| Fair value of Beacon's pre-transaction common shares | \$ 1,440,000 |

12. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company's capital consists of shareholders' equity. The Company's objective when managing capital is to maintain adequate levels of funding to support the development of its businesses and maintain the necessary corporate and administrative functions to facilitate these activities. This is done primarily through equity financing and incurring debt. Future financings are dependent on market conditions and there can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise funds in the future. The Company invests all capital that is surplus to its immediate operational needs in short-term, highly liquid, high-grade financial instruments. There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital management during the year. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

The lease liability was discounted using an incremental borrowing rate as at June 1, 2022 of 8% per annum.
