  1. Company Overview and Business of Company

Cymat was incorporated on June 14, 2006 under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and is the successor to Duntroon Energy (formerly Cymat Corp.) which was incorporated on June 30, 1998 under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).

Cymat develops innovative materials for industry. The Company has worldwide rights, through patents and licenses, to produce Stabilized Aluminum Foam (“SAF”). This ultra-light metallic foam is produced using a proprietary, versatile process in which gas is bubbled into molten-alloyed aluminum containing a dispersion of fine ceramic particles to create foam that is then cast into either flat panels or near-net shapes. The result is a material, which is recyclable, with a wide array of features including very low density, mechanical energy absorption, thermal and acoustic insulation, time and temperature insensitivity and has a relatively low cost of production. Our technology is focused on producing products for 4 major markets: automotive, architecture, defense and general industrial markets seeking energy management systems.

Cymat markets architectural material under the trademark, “Alusion™”. Energy management and engineering-focused products are marketed under the “SmartMetal™” trademark.

Revenue is measured based on the consideration promised in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers control of a good or service to a customer. Based on the terms of the specific transaction, control typically transfers at a point along a continuum that is as early as the products' departure from the Company's warehouse to as late as the passing of inspection following the products' arrival at a designated shipment location. Amounts received in advance of recognized revenues are recorded as deferred revenue.

Licenses and technology rights

Cymat controls the following patent elements related to its SAF which cover:
- the fundamental process to make foam, irrespective of final shape;
- the fundamental process to make foam as a shaped part or a flat panel; and
- the fundamental process to make shaped parts using displacement casting.

The scope of patent protection provides Cymat with important cost advantages in the production of aluminum foams.

Cymat continues to develop and protect its intellectual property and its proprietary manufacturing processes. It is Cymat’s intention to continue to vigorously employ all legal remedies available to enforce its intellectual property rights.

Going Concern Uncertainty

To date, operational activities have not been sufficient, on their own, to finance the Company’s requirements. Financings consisting primarily of equity offerings have been used to supplement revenue streams. The development of applications utilizing SAF as well as its production process involves significant financial risks, including the ability of the Company to develop and penetrate new markets, obtain additional financing as required, achieve profitable production and the ability for the Company to be able to successfully assert its intellectual property rights and protect against patent infringement. The Company has incurred significant operating losses and cash outflows from operations.

As at January 31, 2026, the anticipated level of cash flows from operating activities for the next twelve months is not assured to be sufficient to sustain operations. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon achieving future profitable operations and may also be dependent upon raising additional financing through borrowings or equity issuance. The outcome of these matters is dependent on a number of items outside the Company’s control. As a result, there are material uncertainties that cast significant doubt as to whether the Company will have the ability to continue as a going concern.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments or disclosures that may result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern. If the going concern assumption were not found to be appropriate for these consolidated financial statements, adjustments might be necessary in the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the statement of consolidated financial position classifications and the reported expenses. Such adjustments could be material.

6. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Revenue recognition

Revenue is measured based on the consideration promised in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers control of a good or service to a customer. Based on the terms of the specific transaction, control typically transfers at a point along a continuum that is as early as the products’ departure from the Company’s warehouse to as late as the passing of inspection following the products’ arrival at a designated shipment location. Amounts received in advance of recognized revenues are recorded as deferred revenue.


12

Royalties Liability

The Company issued promissory notes that included an embedded perpetual royalty that survived the maturity of the promissory notes. The royalties have been designated as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. Accordingly, the perpetual royalty is valued at the reporting date based on the most recent revenue projections. The change in estimated fair value of the royalty is recorded in income in the period in which the liability is recalculated.

Use of estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include those used in:

  • the measurement of the cost of finished goods inventory, including the allocation of costs of conversion and manufacturing overhead,
  • allowance for doubtful accounts,
  • the determination appropriate discount rate for valuation of the expected cash flows associated with the note receivable, assumptions about the valuation of the conversion element and assumptions about the likelihood of conversion,
  • the determination of the useful lives of long-lived assets,
  • the determination of the appropriate amount, if any, of the writedown in the carrying value of long-term assets, including the estimation of the asset’s fair value and the cost of disposal,
  • the expected amount of additional financing fees and the determination of the appropriate discount rate used in the valuation of the promissory notes payable,
  • the valuation of the royalties liability, including the forecasted revenues and the appropriate discount rate to apply in the determination of present value,
  • the determination of whether a contract contains a lease, and if so, the determination of the appropriate discount rate and term of the lease to use in the measurement of the lease liability, and
  • the measurement of the fair value of share-based compensation, including the volatility and risk-free rates used in the valuation models and the estimation of number of options expected to vest.

The Company’s assessment of the recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment is based on management’s assessment of potential indicators of impairment and best estimates of likely courses of action by the Company. This assessment is subject to significant measurement uncertainty. Material writedowns of these assets could occur if actual results differed from the estimates and assumptions used.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies, management has made judgements in assessing the primary economic environment underlying its determination that the functional currency of the consolidated entity is the Canadian dollar.


Government assistance may be available to the Company through income tax investment, innovation tax credits and other programs providing innovation funding. Funding is recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company has complied with the conditions attached to the funding arrangement and is recognized as a recovery to the applicable costs as they are incurred. Research and product development funding is presented as a reduction in research and material testing cost expenses unless it is for reimbursement of an asset, in which case it is accounted for as a reduction in the carrying amount of the applicable asset. Where the Company receives government contributions that include terms for repayment, a financial liability is recognized and measured in accordance with the terms of IFRS 9.

  1. Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

Certain pronouncements were issued by the IASB or the IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods commencing on or after January 1, 2025. Many are not applicable or do not have a significant impact to the Company and have been excluded.

Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7)

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments – Disclosures. The amendments clarify the derecognition of financial liabilities and introduces an accounting policy option to derecognize financial liabilities that are settled through an electronic payment system. The amendments also clarify how to assess the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets that include environmental, social and governance (ESG)-linked features and other similar contingent features and the treatment of non-recourse assets and contractually linked instruments (CLIs). Further, the amendments mandate additional disclosures in IFRS 7 for financial instruments with contingent features and equity instruments classified at FVOCI. The amendments are effective for annual periods starting on or after January 1, 2026. Retrospective application is required and early adoption is permitted.

Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (IFRS 18)

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements to improve reporting of financial performance. The new standards replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces new categories and required subtotals in the statement of profit and loss and also requires disclosure of management-defined performance measures. It also includes new requirements for the location, aggregation and disaggregation of financial information. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including interim financial statements. Retrospective application is required, and early adoption is permitted.

Sale of Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28)

IFRS 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements (“IFRS 10”) and IAS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (“IAS 28”) were amended in September 2014 to address a conflict between the requirements of IAS 28 and IFRS 10 and clarify that in a transaction involving an associate or joint venture, the extent of gain or loss recognition depends on whether the assets sold or contributed constitute a business. The effective date of these amendments is yet to be determined; however, early adoption is permitted.


  1. Related Party Transactions

Related party transactions include the following items:

  • The promissory notes payable includes an amount of $502,804 payable to a related party as at January 31, 2026 (April 30, 2025 - $281,373). Promissory note interest and financing fees for the nine months ended January 31, 2026, include $68,899 payable to a related party (January 31, 2025 - $17,524).
  • Interest and financing expense for the nine months ended January 31, 2026 includes cash-based royalties in the amount of $20,654 (January 31, 2025 - $63,217) paid or payable to a related party.
  • As at January 31, 2026, trade and other payables includes $42,971 owed to a related party (April 30, 2025 - $178,993).

  • Risks and Uncertainties

Financial and Liquidity Risk

The Company has not yet attained sufficient sales levels to completely support its operations. As at January 31, 2026, the anticipated level of cash flow from operations for the next twelve months is not assured to be sufficient to sustain the business. In addition to being able to successfully execute its business plan, which includes increased sales, it may be necessary for the Company to raise additional financing through either borrowings or equity financing. Financing transactions that occurred after Cymat’s year end are described in Subsequent Date Events below.

Interruption of Raw Material Supply

Interruption of key raw materials and manufacturing supplies could significantly impact operations and our financial position. Interruption of supply could arise from conflict-related or health-crisis-related market shortages, or from changed business conditions at significant suppliers. Cymat attempts to purchase key raw materials and supplies well in advance of their anticipated use and, where possible, seeks multiple sources for such supplies.

International Trade Barriers and Tariffs

As of the current date, Cymat’s export of SAF have not been materially affected by the ongoing changes to import tariffs enacted by the United States and the subsequent retaliatory measures adopted by various world economies. However, these actions have increased the amount of volatility experienced by international trade. Tariffs have the potential to increase the landed cost of Cymat’s SAF for international customers, which could have a negative effect on Company sales. Furthermore, the price uncertainty caused by fluctuating tariffs may cause potential SAF customers to de-select Cymat’s SAF in favour of products that carry lower risk of potential tariff levies.

In the case of raw material supply, retaliatory tariffs have led Cymat to pivot to a non-tariffed source for one of its primary inputs. To this point, Cymat has not experienced material tariff-related price increases on its main supplies.

15

Outbreak of Disease

A global outbreak of disease or similar public health threat could have a material adverse effect on the operations of Cymat. A pandemic has the potential to be highly disruptive to the global economy and has the potential to negatively impact Company sales, supply chains, labour force, manufacturing capabilities and ability to raise additional financing.

International Trade Barriers and Tariffs

Currently neither Cymat’s primary raw material supplies nor Cymat’s export of SAF have been affected by the recent import tariffs enacted by the United States and the subsequent retaliatory measures adopted by various world economies. However, these actions have increased the amount of volatility experienced by international trade. Further escalation of trade tensions has the potential to increase the landed cost of Cymat’s SAF for international customers, which could have a negative effect on Company sales.

Dependence on Key Personnel

Cymat is dependent on key employees and believes that its future success will depend on its ability to attract and retain highly skilled engineering and production, managerial and marketing personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to retain, attract or hire qualified personnel in the future. The loss of certain key employees, or the inability to hire and retain additional key employees could adversely impact the Company.

Proprietary Technology Protection

Cymat’s technology leadership is subject to the risks of patent infringement by competitors, and of competitors making technological breakthroughs, which may make the Company’s products less attractive. An intellectual property management program is in place to protect Cymat’s intellectual property and trade secrets. Cymat funds ongoing improvements to its proprietary manufacturing processes, which create new patent opportunities that enhance and may extend the period of the technological exclusivity. There is the risk that the Company’s patents and trade secrets may not be held valid and enforceable or be held to have a scope sufficiently broad to cover competitors’ products or processes. There is also the risk that Cymat’s products or process may infringe on other patents, which may limit the Company’s ability to fully commercialize certain SAF applications. The cost of enforcing Cymat’s patent rights in lawsuits or defending against infringement claims may be significant and could interfere with the Company’s operations. For a more complete discussion please refer to the “License and Technology Rights” section above.

Government Regulation and Certification Requirements Imposed by Customers

The use of SAF in certain applications may be subject to regulation by certain government bodies and to compliance with applicable laws, both inside and outside of Canada. In addition, industry users may impose significant certification, safety, quality control and other requirements. Compliance with these laws and regulations may be costly and time consuming, and failure to comply may have a material, adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Other Risks

The Company may be subject to a number of other risks that could materially and adversely affect Cymat’s business, financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Such risks include those associated with competing products, commodity price risks associated with aluminum-based raw materials, fluctuating currency exchange rates and the ability of the Company to manage growth.

10. Management’s Assessment of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management is responsible for the design of internal controls over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. Overall, the Company believes its internal controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that financial information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner.

Management is also responsible for the design and effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that material information related to the Company is made known to the Company’s certifying officers.

There were no changes in the internal controls over financial reporting during the reporting period ended January 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

11. Outlook

Third quarter Alusion™ sales rebounded somewhat from the prior two quarters’ modest levels. However, sluggish global construction activity in the residential and commercial building sectors continue to weigh on executed Alusion™ orders. Additions to the Alusion™ pipeline via new inquiries and quotations do remain at a healthy volume. Management expects that Alusion™ will continue to be a significant source of revenue for the current calendar year, with the timing of individual projects still subject to broader market conditions. Fortunately, Cymat’s sales prospects have not been negatively affected by recent global geopolitical events.

This week Cymat is shipping the first installment of SmartMetal™ panels under the latest order from NUVIA – our French nuclear technology customer. These SmartMetal™ panels are designed and tested to provide protection for critical nuclear energy infrastructure and to support France’s undertaking to extend the life of their nuclear power generation fleet. The order has a contract value of €600,000. Cymat and Nuvia continue to evaluate additional SmartMetal™ applications in response to inquiries from Nuvia’s energy sector customer base. The current conflict in the Middle East is a stark reminder of the importance of hardening critical infrastructure against external threats. Based on the demonstrated performance of SmartMetal™ within Nuvia’s NuFoam™ platform, Cymat is engaging in discussions with entities outside of France regarding the use of SmartMetal™ in protective systems for new energy and technology construction projects, including stakeholders in North American infrastructure developments.

The Canada Border Services Agency finally issued the Export Permit for the 48 SmartMetal™ underbelly protection kits ordered by our Asian military vehicle manufacturer customer. These kits were shipped in February, and the associated $510,000 of revenue will be reflected in the fourth quarter’s results. Cymat, has commenced production of the latest order from this Asian OEM. The purchase order consists of 176 blast-protection kits and has a contract value of $1.8 million. Delivery is expected to continue through the balance of the 2026 calendar year. This is the third purchase order received under our customer’s full-rate production schedule. These underbelly kits are fitted to personnel transportation vehicles being purchased by our customer’s National Armed Forces. This initial supply contract is expected to result in the provision of SmartMetal™ blast protection systems for 350 vehicles. Delivery under this initial supply agreement is now expected to be completed within two years. The full value of this contract to Cymat is estimated to be in the $4M - $5M range. Older versions of this transport vehicle are in use by the armed forces for multiple nations. Marketing efforts are underway to showcase this next-generation vehicle’s enhancements with a focus on presentations to these incumbent ministries of defense.


Cymat continues to prioritize business development efforts targeting the automotive industry and this sector remains the primary focus of our research and development activities. Currently, our top automotive initiatives are platform agnostic – applying equally to traditional ICE and electrified platforms. Ongoing shifts in the international tariff environment continue to disrupt global supply chains and significantly inflate manufacturing costs. Against this backdrop, Cymat is engaged in multiple development initiatives aimed at delivering meaningful cost savings through SmartMetal™-based automotive components that enhance the performance of in-vehicle systems and remove costs from the manufacturing process.

The Automotive Parts Manufacturers’ Association (“APMA”) has launched Project Arrow 2.0 (“PA2.0”) as a further demonstration of the viability of an all-Canadian, zero emission passenger vehicle. In conjunction with our design partner, Tesseract Structural Innovations, we have produced and supplied prototype headrests and seating hardware for PA2.0. Cymat’s participation in PA2.0 is expected to increase the exposure of the benefits and capabilities of SmartMetal™ to a broader range of manufacturers in the automotive industry.

Cymat continues to make progress towards developing its in-house capacity to produce the primary ingredient for our Stabilized Aluminum Foam – an aluminum metal matrix composite known as MMC. The goals of establishing MMC production capability are to:

  1. Manufacture MMC for Cymat’s own SAF production needs, significantly lowering the cost of Cymat’s primary input material thereby allowing Cymat to offer compelling price propositions for targeted customers such as those in the automotive sector. It also has the potential to create entry into business opportunities in high-volume sectors where SAF has historically not been price competitive.
  2. Provide a new substantial, independent, and predictable revenue stream that is profitable and uncorrelated with current SAF sales.
  3. Facilitate experimentation with differing MMC formulations, potentially leading to SAF with enhanced attributes and new SAF applications.

The MMC production line footprint has been finalized and it remains contained within our existing Mississauga plant. Key equipment suppliers have been engaged and the collection of quotations and understanding of order lead times has been initiated. Capital costs for equipment are estimated to be in the range of $2M - $2.5M. Management has identified a number of government funding opportunities that have the potential to defray implementation costs. Assistance with manufacturing technical know-how is being provided by an originator of the MMC production technology that is employed by Rio Tinto Alcan.

Cymat has also commenced discussions with Rio Tinto Alcan’s MMC customer base to develop an understanding of their continuing need for aluminum MMC. Cymat has also initiated our investigation into potential new customers and usage cases for MMC.
