INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Shareholders of Braxia Scientific Corp. (formerly Champignon Brands Inc.):
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Braxia Scientific Corp. (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at March 31 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2021 and the period from incorporation on September 9, 2019 to March 31, 2020, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at March 31 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2021 and the period from incorporation on September 9, 2019 to March 31, 2020 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 1 to the financial statements, which describes events or conditions that indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
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, 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 is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a 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.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
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 auditor's 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 these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism 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 Company’s internal control.
-
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 significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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 represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We 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.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Barry Hartley.

Braxia Scientific Corp. (Formerly, Champignon Brands Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended March 31, 2021
1. Nature of operations and going concern
Braxia Scientific Corp. (formerly, Champignon Brands Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated on March 26, 2019, under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company is engaged in the business of formulation and manufacturing of novel ketamine, ketamine derivatives and other psychedelics, and delivery platforms for nutraceutical and psychedelic medicine while being supported by its psychedelic medicine clinic platform. On April 29, 2021, the Company changed its name from Champignon Brands Inc.(“Champignon”) to Braxia Scientific Corp. The shares of the Company are traded on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) (CSE:BRAX), United States OTC stock market (OTCQB:BRAXF) and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FWB:496). The Company’s primary office (head office and records office) is located at 1430 Hurontario St., Mississauga, Ontario L5G 3H4.
Altmed Capital Corp. (“Altmed”) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on September 9, 2019. Altmed’s registered office is located at 1430 Hurontario St., Mississauga, Ontario L5G 3H4. Altmed is in the start-up stage and is involved in the psychedelic industry.
On April 10, 2020 (and as completed on April 30, 2020), Champignon entered into an Amalgamation Agreement (the “Amalgamation Agreement”) with Altmed (Note 4). Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, Champignon acquired all of the issued and outstanding securities in the capital of Altmed in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of 75,674,000 (2,000 Champignon common shares for every 1 Altmed share held) common shares in the capital of Champignon to the shareholders of Altmed (collectively, the “Transaction”). Lastly, the Company issued 2,000,000 common shares as finders’ shares (the “Finders’ Shares”) in connection with the Transaction. The Transaction constitutes a reverse acquisition (“RTO”) of Champignon by Altmed, with Altmed being the acquirer for accounting purposes. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) are a continuation of Altmed, with the net assets (liabilities) of Champignon being consolidated from April 30, 2020, as well as Champignon’s operating results from that date forward. The comparative figures are those of Altmed.
These consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations. As a company in the startup stage, the Company does not have traditional revenue sources, and historically has relied on share capital financing to cover its research, development and other operating expenditures.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning they 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. As at March 31, 2021, the Company had working capital of $8,844,047 (March 31, 2020 - $2,984,651), however, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $90,753,303 (March 31, 2020 - $1,925,157) since inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. Although the historical losses cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management has assessed that its overall working capital is sufficient for the Company to continue as a going concern beyond one year. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these financial statements, it could be necessary to restate the Company’s assets and liabilities on a liquidation basis.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus, specifically identified as “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 ability to raise capital or conduct development activities. There are travel restrictions and health and safety concerns in all areas in which the Company operates that may prohibit or delay certain operating activities from proceeding.

2. Significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Reporting Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”) for the period presented.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an historical cost basis, except for financial instruments which are classified as fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”).
All amounts on the consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries.
These consolidated financial statements were approved by the board of directors on July 29, 2021.
Basis of consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned, Canadian subsidiaries, as follows:
| Braxia Scientific Corp. (“Braxia”) | Legal parent company |
|---|---|
| Altmed | Psychedelic and health company |
| Tassili Life Science Corp. (“TLS”) | Research and development company |
| Artisan Growers Ltd. (“AGL”) | Mushroom cultivation company |
| Novo Formulations Ltd. (“NOVO”) | Research and development company |
| Canadian Rapid Treatment Centre of Excellence (“CRTCE”) | Ketamine clinic company |
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company and is included in the financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of a subsidiary are changed where necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Company.
These consolidated financial statements account for Braxia as a controlled entity requiring consolidation from the date of the RTO (Notes 1 and 4), effective April 30, 2020.
Inter-company balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from inter-company transactions, are eliminated in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements.
Share-based payments
Braxia grants stock options to buy common shares of the Company to Directors, Officers, employees and certain consultants. The Board of Directors grants such options for periods of up to five (5) years, with vesting periods determined at its sole discretion and at prices equal to the discounted market price, as calculated pursuant to the policies of the CSE, or such other minimum price as may be required by the CSE.
Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and recognized over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is recorded to contributed surplus. The fair value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest.

Braxia Scientific Corp. (Formerly, Champignon Brands Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended March 31, 2021
2. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Leases
The Company adopted IFRS 16 - Leases on September 9, 2019. IFRS 16 applies a control model to the identification of leases, distinguishing between a lease and a service contract on the basis of whether the customer controls the asset being leased. For those assets determined to meet the definition of a lease, IFRS 16 introduces significant changes to the accounting by lessees, introducing a single, on-balance sheet accounting model that is similar to current finance lease accounting, with limited exceptions for short-term leases or leases of low value assets. Lessor accounting remains similar to current accounting practice.
Equipment
Equipment is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Equipment not available for use is not subject to depreciation. Depreciation is recognized on a straight-line basis over a term of five years.
An asset’s residual value, useful life and depreciation method is reviewed at each reporting period and adjusted if appropriate. When parts of an item of equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of equipment.
Subsequent costs that meet the asset recognition criteria are capitalized, while costs incurred that do not extend the economic useful life of an asset are considered repairs and maintenance, which are accounted for as an expense recognized during the period. Gains and losses on disposal of an item are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the item and recognized in profit or loss.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value with cost based upon the weighted average method of inventory costing. The realizable value of finished goods is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. The cost of finished goods inventory is based on landed cost, which includes all costs incurred to bring inventory to the Company including product, conversion and packaging costs. If the Company determines the estimated net realizable value of the inventory is less than the carrying value of such inventory, it records a charge to cost of sales.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company capitalizes direct costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or development of its website. The Company capitalizes direct costs incurred during the application and infrastructure development and graphical design development stages of its website development projects. All website costs incurred during the preliminary project stage, including planning and research, are expensed as incurred, as well as any costs incurred for content development and costs incurred once development is complete.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their useful economic lives and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization periods and the amortization methods for intangible assets with finite useful lives are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful lives or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the remaining amortization periods or methods, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

Braxia Scientific Corp. (Formerly, Champignon Brands Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the year ended March 31, 2021
2. Significant accounting policies (continued)
Intangible assets are amortized over the following methods and periods:
| Type | Amortization method |
|---|---|
| Website | Straight-line basis over 10 years |
| License | Not depreciated |
Business combinations
A business combination is a transaction in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses and is accounted for using the acquisition method. The total consideration paid for the acquisition is the aggregate of the fair values of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the acquiree at the acquisition date. The acquisition date is the date when the Company obtains control of the acquiree. The identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition date fair values, except for deferred taxes and share-based payment awards where IFRS provides exceptions to recording the amounts at fair value. Goodwill represents the difference between total consideration paid and the fair value of the net-identifiable assets acquired. Acquisition costs incurred are expensed to profit or loss. Contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition date fair value and is included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination, subject to the applicable terms and conditions.
Based on the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, management will perform a valuation analysis to allocate the purchase price based on the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. Management has one year from the acquisition date to confirm and finalize the facts and circumstances that support the finalized fair value analysis and related purchase price allocation. Until such time, these values are provisionally reported and are subject to change. Changes to fair values and allocations are retrospectively adjusted in subsequent periods.
In determining the fair value of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the most significant estimates generally relate to contingent consideration and intangible assets. Management exercises judgment in estimating the probability and timing of when earn-outs are expected to be achieved, which is used as the basis for estimating fair value. Identified intangible assets are fair valued using appropriate valuation techniques which are generally based on a forecast of the total expected future net cash flows of the acquiree. Valuations are highly dependent on the inputs used and assumptions made by management regarding the future performance of these assets and any changes in the discount rate applied.
Acquisitions that do not meet the definition of a business combination are accounted for as asset acquisitions. Consideration paid for an asset acquisition is allocated to the individual identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. Asset acquisitions do not give rise to goodwill.
During the measurement period (one year from the date of acquisition), the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid for the acquisition of an entity over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is allocated to the cash generating unit (“CGU”) or group of CGUs which are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Goodwill is not subject to amortization.
Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill
Goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite life or not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually, and whenever events or circumstances that make it more likely than not that an impairment may have occurred, such as a significant adverse change in the business climate or a decision to sell or dispose of all or a portion of a reporting unit. Finite life intangible assets are tested whenever there is an indication of impairment.

Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill (continued)
Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are tested annually for impairment by comparing the carrying value of each CGU containing the assets to its recoverable amount. Goodwill is allocated to CGUs or groups of CGU’s for impairment testing based on the level at which it is monitored by management, and not at a level higher than an operating segment. Goodwill is allocated to those CGUs or groups of CGUs expected to benefit from the business combination from which the goodwill arose, which requires the use of judgment.
An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the CGU’s carrying amount exceeds it recoverable amount. The recoverable amounts of the CGUs’ assets have been determined based on a fair value less costs of disposal. There is a material degree of uncertainty with respect to the estimates of the recoverable amounts of the CGU, given the necessity of making key economic assumptions about the future. Impairment losses recognized in respect of a CGU are first allocated to the carrying value of goodwill and any excess is allocated to the carrying value of assets in the CGU. Any impairment is recorded in profit and loss in the period in which the impairment is identified. A reversal of an asset impairment loss is allocated to the assets of the CGU on a pro rata basis. In allocating a reversal of an impairment loss, the carrying amount of an asset shall not be increased above the lower of its recoverable amount and the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior period. Impairment losses on goodwill are not subsequently reversed.
Research and development expenditures
Expenditures on research activities are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
An internally-generated intangible asset arising from development (or from the development phase of an internal project) is recognized if, and only if, all of the following have been demonstrated:
-
The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;
-
The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it;
-
The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;
-
How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;
-
The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and
-
The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.
Revenue recognition
The Company adopted all requirements of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”). IFRS 15 utilizes a methodical framework for entities to follow to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.
The IFRS 15 model contains the following five-step contract-based analysis of transactions guiding revenue recognition:
-
Identify the contract with a customer;
-
Identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract;
-
Determine the transaction price;
-
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and
-
Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).
The Company derives revenues from the sale of tea products, the resale of Auralite minerals, and providing health services. The Company recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and when specific criteria have been met for each of the Company’s activities as described below.
The sale of tea products and Auralite minerals is recognized when the products are shipped, or the products delivered, respectively, and when all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied. There is no unfulfilled obligation that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the products after delivering the product. Revenue is shown net of returns

and discounts. This operation was discontinued during the year ended March 31, 2021 (Note 17).
In respect of the operations of CRTCE (Note 3) it derives revenue from providing ketamine infusion treatments to patients. Initial treatments consist of four separate treatments over a two-week period. Revenues are recognized when each treatment is completed and payment is received or receivable upon rendering of treatments. Payments received prior to patients receiving treatments is recorded as deferred revenue.
Earnings (loss) per share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) 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 year, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held and for the effects of all potential dilutive common shares related to outstanding stock options and warrants issued by the Company for the years presented, except if their inclusion proves to be anti-dilutive.
Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the Company’s business, with operations and cash flows that are distinguishable from those of the rest of the Company, and which represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, and which is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively for resale.
Classification as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the major line of business or geographical operation meets the criteria to be classified as assets held for sale or distribution. When an operation is - classified as a discontinued operation, IFRS 5, Non current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, - requires that the comparative statements of comprehensive income (loss) are re presented as if the operation was discontinued from the start of the comparative year. As a result, the Company’s discontinued operations are excluded from the profit (loss) from continuing operations and are presented as an amount, net of tax, as profit (loss) from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Furthermore, the Company has made the accounting policy choice to present net cash flows related to its discontinued operations in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Income taxes
Income tax expense is comprised of current and deferred income taxes. Current income tax and deferred income tax are recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that they relate to items recognized directly in equity or equity investments.
Current income 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 income 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 income 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 income tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current income tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority for the same taxable entity. A deferred income 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 income tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related income tax benefit will be realized.

Use of estimates and critical judgments
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates and judgments. Those areas requiring the use of management estimates and judgments include:
Estimates:
The determination of the fair value of stock options or warrants using stock pricing models requires the input of highly subjective variables, including expected price volatility. Wide fluctuations in the variables could materially affect the fair value estimate; therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options and warrants.
Judgments:
-
(i) The determination of deferred income tax assets or liabilities requires subjective assumptions regarding future income tax rates and the likelihood of utilizing tax carry-forwards. Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the recorded amounts, and therefore do not necessarily provide certainty as to their recorded values.
-
(ii) Judgment is used in determining whether an acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition. Estimates are made as to the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired. The determination of these fair values involves a variety of assumptions. The Company measures all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Acquisition related costs are recognized as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. The excess of the aggregate of the consideration paid to obtain control over the net identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed (net assets) in an asset acquisition, is recognized as a listing expense as of the acquisition date. The fair value of common shares issued as consideration paid based on a concurrent private placement is considered a significant judgment.
-
(iii) Under IFRS, an impairment charge is required for both goodwill and other indefinite lived assets when the carrying amount exceeds the ‘recoverable amount’, defined as the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The Company’s approach in determining the recoverable amount utilizes a discounted cash flow methodology, which necessarily involves making numerous estimates and assumptions regarding revenue growth, operating margins, tax rates, appropriate discount rates and working capital requirements. These estimates will likely differ from future actual results of operations and cash flows, and it is possible that these differences could be material. In addition, judgments are applied in determining the level of cash-generating unit we identify for impairment testing and the criteria we use to determine which assets should be aggregated. A difference in testing levels could affect whether an impairment is recorded and the extent of impairment loss. Changes in the Company’s business activities or structure may also result in changes to the level of testing in future periods.
3. Business combination
On April 10, 2020 (and as amended and completed on April 29, 2020), Altmed entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Canadian Rapid Treatment Center of Excellence Inc. (“CRTCE”), a ketamine clinic licensed by the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Ontario, Canada. Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, Altmed paid $1,500,000 in cash consideration and issued a total of 10,455 common shares with an aggregate fair value of $5,227,500 ($500 per share) (Note 9). This acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination as CRTCE met the definition of a business under IFRS 3, Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”).
In accordance with IFRS 3, the equity consideration on transfer was measured at fair value on the date of acquisition, which is the date control was obtained.
The table below summarizes the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the effective acquisition date:

The business objectives of CRTCE were synergistic with the Company’s business plans and objectives. Goodwill consists of an assembled workforce, cost synergies and future economic potential of CRTCE.
4. Reverse acquisition
As described in Note 1, on April 30, 2020, Champignon and Altmed completed the Transaction which constituted a RTO.
The Transaction resulted in the shareholders of Altmed obtaining control of the combined entity by obtaining control of the voting rights, governance, and management decision making processes, and the resulting power to govern the financial and operating policies of the combined entities.
The Transaction constitutes an RTO of Champignon by Altmed and has been accounted for as a RTO. Champignon qualified as a business under the definitions of IFRS 3, and the Transaction was treated as an issuance of common shares by Altmed for the net assets of Champignon as well as Champignon’s public listing, with Altmed as the continuing entity. Goodwill was recorded with respect to the Transaction, reflecting management’s estimate of the fair value of Champignon’s artisanal mushroom infused beverage business. The excess of consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired has been recorded as a listing expense, consistent with the guidance of IFRS 2.
For accounting purposes, Altmed is treated as the accounting parent company (legal subsidiary) and Champignon as the accounting subsidiary (legal parent) in these consolidated financial statements. As Altmed was deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes, its assets, liabilities and operations since incorporation are included in these financial statements at their historical carrying values. Champignon’s results of operations have been included from April 30, 2020 onwards.
The table below summarizes the preliminary estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the effective acquisition date:

The Transaction was measured at the fair value of the shares options and warrants that Altmed would have had to issue to the shareholders of Champignon, to give the shareholders of Champignon the same percentage equity interest in the combined entity that results from the reverse acquisition had it taken the legal form of Altmed acquiring Champignon.
A shareholder and contracted consultant to Champignon was also a shareholder of Altmed and was issued 6,018,000 common shares of Champignon on the closing of the RTO.
37,837 shares of Altmed were acquired by Champignon as part of the RTO.

On April 29, 2020, Altmed issued a total of 10,455 common shares pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement with CRTCE (Note 3) with a total fair value of $5,227,500 ($500 per share).
On April 30, 2020, Altmed completed the RTO with Champignon and 75,674,000 Champignon’s common shares with a fair value of $69,104,176 were issued to the Altmed shareholders and 2,000,000 Champignon’s common shares were issued as finder’s fees at the fair value of $1,700,000 (Notes 1 and 4).
On June 11, 2020, the Company completed a private placement whereby a total of 17,647,500 units (the “Units”) were issued at a price of $0.85 per Unit for gross proceeds of $15,000,375. Each Unit consists of one common share and one half of one warrant (total warrants attached 8,823,750), with each whole warrant being exercisable at a price of $1.15 for a period expiring on June 11, 2022. No value was allocated to the warrant component of the Units. In connection with the Unit offering completed, the Company paid finders’ fees of $1,165,116 and issued a total of 1,235,326 finders’ warrants (the “Unit Finders’ Warrants”) for a fair value of $642,301. The Unit Finders’ Warrants are exercisable into Units of the Company at an exercise price of $0.85 and an expiration date of June 11, 2022.

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximates the carrying amount. Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
-
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
-
Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
The fair value of cash is measured using Level 1 inputs. The carrying value of promissory note payable and accounts payable approximates the fair values due to their short-term term to maturity or guaranteed cash value at maturity.
Financial instruments - risk

This risk is managed by using major banks that are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. Credit risk related to cash is assessed as low.
The Company has minimal credit risk exposure in respect of receivables, as they primarily consist of refundable credits are due from Canadian Government.
(b) Interest rate risk
