Eguana Technologies Inc.
Notes to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements June 30, 2021
Stated in Canadian dollars Unaudited
1. Description of the business
Eguana Technologies Inc. (“the Company”), incorporated under the Alberta Business Corporations Act , designs and manufactures high performance residential and commercial energy storage systems. Eguana has two decades of experience delivering grid edge power electronics for fuel cell, photovoltaic and battery applications. The Company is a publicly traded company headquartered at Unit 3, 6143 – 4[th] Street SE, Calgary, Alberta, Canada and its shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”) under the symbol “EGT”.
2. Basis of preparation
(a) Statement of compliance
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
These financial statements do not comprise all the information required for annual audited consolidated financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS.
These financial statements follow the same accounting policies as outlined in Notes 2 and 4 of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2020.
The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are consistent with those disclosed in Note 2 of the September 30, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements.
These financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on August 26, 2021.
(b) Restatement
As previously disclosed in the September 30, 2020 Management Discussion and Analysis, due to an update to the accounting treatment associated with the senior debt amendment in Q2 2020 from a debt modification to a debt extinguishment, the Company recorded a non-cash increase of the net loss for the six-month period ended March 31, 2020 of $491,692, of which only $29,314 was previously recorded within financing expenses. The amount previously recorded of $29,314 has been reclassed to be included within loss on debt extinguishment as noted below.
The impact of the errors on the June 30, 2020 financial statements is summarized below:

| Loss on debt extinguishment | - | 491,692 | 491,692 |
(c) Going concern
These consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis. The going concern basis of accounting assumes that the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
At June 30, 2021, the Company had not achieved profitable operations since its inception and had accumulated a deficit of $84,826,863 (September 30, 2020 - $76,907,180), incurred a net loss for the ninemonth period ended June 30, 2021 of $7,919,683 (June 30, 2020 - $6,260,595) and cash flow used in operating activities was $12,287,820 (June 30, 2020 - $3,295,870). Whether and when the Company can attain profitability from operations is uncertain. At June 30, 2021 the Company has a positive working capital of $9,992,332 (September 30, 2020 – deficiency $5,232,430). The lack of profitable operations results in material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on completing equity or debt financings and generating profitable operations in the future in order to meet liabilities as they come due and enable the Company to continue operations. To address its financing requirements, the Company completed a $20 million private placement in February 2021 (Note 12) and may need to also seek additional financing through the issuance of common shares, first preferred shares, units of EGT Markets Limited Partnership, and debentures to meet its continuing operating requirements. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumption were not appropriate. Failure to continue as a going concern would require

adjustments to assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and balance sheet classifications used, which could differ materially from the going concern basis.
(d) COVID-19
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, leading to an economic downturn. Government authorities have approved the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines and easing of restrictions implemented to prevent the spread of COVID-19, however there is no certainty when economic activity will return to pre COVID-19 levels. The situation remains dynamic and 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.
Estimates and judgments made by management in the preparation of the interim financial statements are increasingly difficult and subject to a higher degree of estimation uncertainty during this volatile period.

As at June 30, 2021, $5,637,133 (September 30, 2020 - $1,370,244) of inventory was carried at cost and $98,905 (September 30, 2020 - $173,861) was carried at net realizable value. $31,853 of inventory was written-up for the period ended June 30, 2021 (2020 - $nil).
4. Bridge loan
On November 29, 2019, the Company entered into a short-term bridge financing transaction (“Bridge Loan”) in the amount of $280,000, with certain accredited investors, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The principal amount of the Bridge Loan bore an interest rate of 12.0% per annum for the initial three-month period, and 24.0% per annum each month thereafter and held a maturity date of May 29, 2020. The Company had the right to prepay at any time a partial or the entire balance of the Bridge Loan outstanding together with accrued interest, without notice, penalty, or bonus. An administrative fee of 10% on the initial principal amount is due and payable on the earlier of payment or maturity date. On April 7, 2020, the Company repaid the full amount outstanding on the Bridge Loan.

The derivative liability is carried at fair value through profit and loss and re-measured at each reporting date. The fair value was the present value of the warrant exchange payment using a discount rate of 16% and the value was determined to be $1,193,977 at June 30, 2021.
On December 31, 2019, the Company entered an amendment, that was finalized in January 2020, with the Senior Lender to the original loan agreement, wherein the monthly payments were reduced and comprised of interest only for four months commencing November 1, 2019 through February 1, 2020. The Senior Loan will continue to bear interest at a rate of 12.5% per annum and will now be repaid February 1, 2022. In consideration, 4,161,333 common share purchase warrants were issued on January 22, 2020, at a price of $0.06 per warrant for a period of five years, with an expiry date of January 22, 2025. The fair value of the amended loan was determined by applying an effective interest rate of 18.1% to discount the contractual cash over the remaining life of the loan. The book value of the loan prior to amendment was then deducted from the new fair value, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $80,794 in January 2020.
The fair value of the warrant component was determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using a nil dividend yield, a 1.46% interest rate and a volatility of 77.10%. The fair market value at issuance was $410,898, also recognized as loss on extinguishment.

14. Financial instruments fair value
The carrying value and fair value of financial instruments at June 30, 2021, is disclosed below by financial instrument category:
| Carrying | Fair value | |
|---|---|---|
| value | ||
| Accounts receivable | 1,539,200 | 1,539,200 |
| Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | 3,465,439 | 3,465,439 |
| Derivative liability | 1,193,977 | 1,193,977 |
The Company categorizes its financial instruments carried at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs employed in the measurement. The Company valued cash using Level 1 input and the derivative liability was measured at fair value using level 2 inputs (notes 5).

Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
-
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1. Prices in Level 2 are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the marketplace.
-
Level 3 - Valuations in this level are those with inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
