Material Variations in Quarterly Results

During the quarters of fiscal year 2024 and the period ended March 31, 2025, there were no material variations in the net losses of the Company. The management restricted the consumption of the Company's resources as they look for new business opportunities.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Company engaged some consultants to work on the reorganization of the Company, which resulted in an increase in the net loss of the Company. As a result of the reorganization, the Company realized a significant decline in its net loss during the subsequent quarters as the Company's overheads were reduced while it searched for new opportunities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management makes a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include:

  • Assessment of the going concern assumption.

Financial Instruments Risk Management

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, trade and other receivables (excluding sales tax), trade and other payables, and preferred share redemption payable. The fair values of financial instruments other than cash approximate their carrying values. Trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and preferred share redemption payable, approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the accounts.

The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

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 cash held in bank accounts. The Company has deposited its cash with a large Canadian financial institution.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient working capital to meet liabilities when due. As at March 31, 2025, the Company had a cash balance of $275,343 (December 31, 2024 - $311,350) to settle accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $14,282 (December 31, 2024 - $31,985).

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposure within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.
