1. Reporting entity and going concern

ChitogenX Inc. (“the Corporation”, or “ChitogenX”), was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on February 5, 2015. The Corporation’s head office, principal address and registered office is located at 16667 Hymus Blvd., Kirkland, Quebec, Canada and its wholly owned US subsidiary, OR4102022 Inc. has been incorporated on April 20, 2022 and is located at 12 Penns Trail in Newtown, Pennsylvania, USA. Since September 12, 2022, the Corporation’s shares are listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”), under the symbol “CHGX” and on the United States OTCQB (“OTCQB”) market, under the symbol “CHNXF”.

The Corporation is an emerging Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine biologics company dedicated to the development of novel therapeutic soft tissue repair technologies to dramatically improve the success rate of orthopaedic and sports medicine surgeries. The Corporation’s proprietary biopolymer has been specifically designed to increase the healing rates of occupational and sports related injuries to tendons, ligaments, meniscus, and cartilage. The biopolymer – autologous PRP combination implant, can be directly placed into the site of injuries by surgeons during routine operative procedures without significantly extending the duration of surgeries and without further interventions. Considering the significant bioactivity and residency of our proprietary biopolymer – PRP implants, ChitogenX continues to assess its potential for therapeutic uses outside of the soft tissue repair market.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes the Corporation will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. In its assessment to determine if the going concern assumption is appropriate, management considers all data available regarding the future for at least, without limiting to, the next twelve months.

The Corporation has yet to generate revenue and has relied upon the issuance of debt and equity instruments to fund its operations. During the nine-month period ended October 31, 2024, the Corporation incurred a net loss of $1,096 and used cash in operations of $62. As at October 31, 2024, the Corporation had a negative working capital balance of $7,522.

The ability of the Corporation to fulfill its obligations and finance its future activities depends on its ability to raise capital and on the continuous support of its creditors. The Corporation believes its efforts to raise sufficient funds to support its activities will be successful, however, there is no assurance that funds will continue to be raised on acceptable terms. This indicates the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast a significant doubt about the ability of the Corporation to continue as a going concern without obtaining additional financial resources.

Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of the Corporation’s strategic goals. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Corporation be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on Dec 20, 2024.

2. Summary of Material Accounting Policies

Basis of measurement

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of certain financial liabilities to fair value.

Functional and presentation currency

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of Canadian dollars, which is also the functional currency of the Corporation.

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency of the related entity using the exchange rates in effect at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the closing exchange rates. Any resulting exchange difference is recognized in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and measured at historical cost are translated using historical exchange rates, and those measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rate in effect at the date the fair value is determined. Expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the period or the exchange rate at the date of the transaction for significant items.

These estimates and judgements are based on management's best knowledge of the events or circumstances and actions the Corporation may take in the future. The estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimates are revised and in any future years affected.

Information about the significant judgements, estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses are discussed in the Corporation's 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements and are still applicable for the first nine-month period ended October 31, 2024.

(b) Share based compensation

The Corporation implemented an incentive stock option plan for directors, officers, employees and consultants to participate in the growth and development of the Corporation by providing such persons with the opportunity, through stock options, to purchase common shares of the Corporation. The stock option plan provides that the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance, set aside and made available for issuance may not exceed 10% of the number of issued shares at the time the options are to be granted. The maximum number of options which may be granted to any one beneficiary shall not exceed 5% of the issued shares, calculated at the date the option is granted.

The stock option plan is administered by the Board of Directors of the Corporation and it has full and final authority with respect to the granting of all options thereunder. The exercise price of any options granted under the stock option plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors, subject to any applicable regulations or policies. The term and vesting of any options granted under the stock option plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant, and vary from one grant to another, however, subject to earlier termination in the event of dismissal for cause, termination other than for cause or in the event of death, the term of any options granted under the stock option plan may not exceed 8 years.

Options granted under the stock option plan are not to be transferable or assignable other than by will or other testamentary instrument or pursuant to the laws of succession to a qualified successor. In the event of death of an option holder, options granted under the stock option plan expire upon the earlier of the normal expiry date of the options or one year from the date of death of the option holder.

Subject to certain exceptions, if an employee, director, officer, consultant ceases to hold office or provide consulting services, options granted to such a holder under the stock option plan will expire 90 days after the holder ceases to hold office or such earlier date as the Board of Directors may decide at the date the options were granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a termination for cause of an option holder, all unexercised options held by such option holder shall immediately expire.

Following the resignation of the former Chief Executive Officer, on February 28, 2024, his unvested Options and RSUs were cancelled, resulting in a reversal of the cumulative stock-based compensation expense of $260 during the three months ended April 30, 2024.

15. Financial Risk Factors

The Corporation's activities expose it to financial risks: market risk, more specifically cash flow and fair value interest rate risk, and liquidity risk. The Corporation's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of the financial market and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on its financial performance. The Corporation does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge these risks.

(a) Credit risk

Credit risk arises from cash deposited with a financial institution. The Corporation reduces this risk by dealing with creditworthy financial institutions.

(b) Market risk

(i) Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

The Corporation is exposed to fair value interest rate risk due to its short-term debt and convertible debenture negotiated at a fixed rate.

(ii) Currency risk

The Corporation has cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities denominated in USD and EUR. The Corporation does not hold financial derivatives to manage fluctuation in these risks.

The following presents the accounts that are exposed to foreign exchange volatility, as at:

October 31, 2024 January 31, 2024
Foreign Currency CAD equivalent Foreign Currency CAD equivalent
Cash – USD 0 0 11 14
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities – USD 1,272 1,769 1,172 1,570
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities – EUR 10 15 10 15

A plus or minus 5% variation in exchange rate, all else being held equal, would result in a foreign exchange gain or loss of $89 for the nine-month period ended October 31, 2024 ($80 for the year ended January 31, 2024).

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation will not be able to meet its obligations as they fall due. The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities calculated based on contractual undiscounted cash flows including interest coupons (if applicable):

As at October 31, 2024: Carrying value Contractual cash flows Less than 12 months Between 12 months and 24 months
Financial liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 2,972 2,972 2,972 -
Accrued interest on debentures and notes 543 543 543 -

(d) Capital risk management

The Corporation's objective when managing capital is to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Corporation's definition of capital includes equity, comprised of issued common shares, warrants and contributed surplus. The Corporation's primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure that it has enough financial resources to meet its financial obligations. To secure the additional capital necessary to carry out these plans, the Corporation will attempt to raise additional funds through the issuance of debt, equity or by securing funds from strategic partners. The Corporation is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. The Corporation's overall strategy with respect to capital risk management remains unchanged since the year ended January 31, 2024.

In June 2015, the Corporation entered into collaborative research agreement with École Polytechnique ("Poly") which stipulated that when the Corporation's products are commercialized, it must make non-refundable payments to Polyvalor, a shareholder of the Corporation, equal to 1.5% of net sales. The agreement has been extended until August 14, 2024 and subsequently replaced by the NSERC funding.

On February 16, 2023, the Corporation secured a $2,604 million 4-year grant from The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada ("NSERC") and Prima Québec in partnership with Poly. The 4-year grant will be received and used on a linear basis to advance the scientific development, expand the scope of indications, develop new biomaterials for regenerative medicine and accelerate the commercial readiness of the Company's flagship ORTHO-R technology platform. The Corporation's contribution to the NSERC Project totals $940 over 4 years but eliminates any contractual obligations under the Poly contract.
