YORKTON EQUITY GROUP INC. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Nine months ended September 30, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited)
1. Nature of Business
Yorkton Equity Group Inc. (the “Company” or “Yorkton”) was incorporated on March 4, 2016 under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta). The Company is a growth-oriented real estate company which primarily owns a portfolio of mid-market multi-unit residential rental properties in British Columbia and Alberta.
The Company’s shares are listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) under the symbol “YEG”. The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 3165, 10180 – 101 Street, Edmonton, Alberta, T5J 3S4.
2. Basis of Presentation
a) Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the “IASB”). Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) have been omitted or condensed and accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended December 31, 2021.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s board of directors on November 24, 2022.
b) Basis of Measurement
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for investment properties that have been measured at fair value. These consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis.
c) Functional Currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency.

2. Basis of Presentation (continued)
d) Use of management critical judgment, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses recorded during the reporting period. In making estimates and judgments, management relies on external information and observable conditions where possible, supplemented by internal analysis as required. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
The critical accounting estimates and judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies were the same as those described in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 with the addition of the below:
i) Compound financial instruments
The fair value of convertible debentures units issued, comprised of convertible debentures and common shares purchase warrants, is allocated to each respective component on a relative fair value basis. The fair value of a convertible debenture is allocated between the liability and equity components with the fair value of the liability component determined first, based on a discounted cash flow approach using the interest rate estimated to be equal to the rate of interest of a similar debt instruments without a conversion feature, and with the residual value being assigned to the equity component.
ii) Warrants
The fair value of common share purchase warrants issued is recognized using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Measurement inputs include the Company’s share price on the measurement date, the exercise price of the common share purchase warrants, the expected volatility of the Company’s shares, the expected life of the common share purchase warrants, expected dividends and the risk-free rate of return. The Company estimates volatility based on historical volatilities of peer companies that are publicly traded. The expected life of the common share purchase warrants is based on historical experience and estimates of the holder’s behaviour. Dividends are not factored in as the Company does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

2. Basis of Presentation (continued)
d) Use of management critical judgment, estimates and assumptions (continued)
In addition, at this time, the duration and future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic still remains uncertain, given the unprecedented nature of the pandemic, which uncertainty may impact certain of the Company’s significant judgments and estimates. Specifically, the Company has had to make assumptions with respect to the length and severity of the recovery period, as well as the severity and duration of future waves of the pandemic, in estimating the ongoing impact on the Company. Specifically, significant judgement was required when measuring the Company’s investment properties which are carried at fair value using assumptions based on market conditions, which currently have limited long-term visibility. The full longterm impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the valuation of investment properties remains unknown. Furthermore, judgement was required in assessing the collectability of outstanding tenant receivables and the consideration of applying an allowance for estimated credit losses to these balances. As government financial supports, which assisted the Company’s tenants with their essential needs such as rental payments throughout the pandemic, are reduced or eliminated, and as inflation continues to rise, the Company may see an increase in its bad debt expense and be exposed to an increased credit risk.
3. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies applied by the Company in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied by the Company in its annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 with the addition of the below:

YORKTON EQUITY GROUP INC. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Nine months ended September 30, 2022 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited)
3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
a) Basis of Consolidation (continued)
Subsidiaries are entities over which the Company has control and are consolidated from the date control commences until control ceases. Control is achieved when the Company has power over the investee; is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts, circumstances and events indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
b) Compound Financial Instruments
Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible debentures that can be converted to common shares of the Company at the option of the holder, when the number of common shares to be issued is fixed and does not vary with changes in fair value.
The liability component of compound financial instruments is initially recognized at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is initially recognized at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not remeasured.
Interest related to the financial liability is recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. On conversion at maturity, the financial liability is reclassified to equity and no gain or loss is recognized.

Investment properties measured at fair value in the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position are categorized by level according to significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The level of inputs are as follows:
The Company values its investment property using Level 3 inputs. There have been no transfers during the period between levels.
As at September 30, 2022, the commercial property was valued at $6,383,490 (December 31, 2021 - $6,400,000) and the residential properties were valued at $41,003,563 (December 31, 2021 - $29,530,000) using a combination of the direct capitalization of income method and the direct comparison approach. In applying the direct capitalization of income method, the stabilized net operating income is capitalized at the requisite overall capitalization rate. In applying the direct comparison method (price per square foot or price per unit), the property was compared to recent sales transactions considered to be similar in terms of location, condition, size, and tenancy.
As at September 30, 2022, the land held for development was valued at $6,620,000 (December 31, 2021 - $6,620,000) using the direct comparison approach. The land was compared to recent sales transactions of commercial land sales.

15. Financial Instruments
Fair Value
Financial instruments include cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, promissory note receivable, due from related parties, refundable security deposits, investment, mortgages payable, convertible debentures, amount due to related parties and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
The following provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured at fair value, grouped into levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:
-
Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
-
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are not observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
-
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, promissory note receivable, due from related parties, investment, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties and refundable security deposits approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short periods to maturity of these financial instruments.
The fair values of mortgages payable and convertible debentures are determined using level 2 measurements, is determined by discounting the future contractual cash flows under the current financing arrangements at a discount rate that represents an approximation to the borrowing rates presently available to the Company for debts with similar terms to maturity.

15. Financial Instruments (continued)
The nature of these financial instruments and the Company’s operations expose the Company to certain principal financial risks. The principal financial risks to which the Company is exposed are described below.
Financial risk management
The Company’s activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial and economic markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial results. Risk management is carried out by financial management in conjunction with overall corporate governance.
a. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company is susceptible to interest rate cash flow risk on its mortgages payable that bear interest at a variable rate and fair value risk on its amounts due to related parties and mortgages payable that bear interest at a fixed rate.
As at September 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $3.4 million (September 30, 2021 – approximately $7.8 million) of mortgages payable which are carried at variable-rate interest. Each 1% change in market interest rates would, all else being equal, increase or decrease net earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 by approximately $8,600 and $25,700, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 - $19,500 and $58,600, respectively).
b. Credit risk
The Company is exposed to credit risk due to unexpected losses that could occur if a tenant fails to satisfy its lease obligations and if a borrower fails to repay on the promissory note receivable or the amounts due from related parties. Credit risk for the Company primarily arises from the accounts receivable from tenants and the promissory note receivable. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial asset. The Company mitigates its credit risk by attracting tenants with good credit and by limiting exposure to any one tenant. The promissory note receivable is with a current tenant of the commercial investment property. The amounts due from related parties are due from companies directly controlled by the CEO of the Company.

b. Credit risk (continued)
Commercial investment property
For the commercial investment property, as at September 30, 2022 approximately 90% (December 31, 2021 – 92%) of accounts receivable is from two (2) tenants and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, 77% of commercial rental revenue is from three (3) tenants (three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 – 65%).
The aging of accounts receivable for the commercial investment property is as follows:
| September 30, | December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 2021 | |||
| Current | $ | 19,775 | $ | - |
| 31-90 days | - | - | ||
| 90 + days | 372,855 | 197,990 | ||
| 392,630 | 197,990 | |||
| Allowance for doubtful accounts | (178,412) | (178,412) | ||
| $ | 214,218 | $ | 19,578 |
Certain tenants experienced business difficulty during COVID-19. The company has registered repayment agreements under the Personal Property Security Act and obtained personal guarantees from these tenants.
c. Liquidity risk
The Company's exposure to liquidity risk is dependent on generating rental revenue to sustain operations. The Company controls liquidity risk by managing working capital and cash flows. The Company’s contractual obligations for its non-derivative financial liabilities as at September 30, 2022 consists of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $317,388 (December 31, 2021 - $482,533) and refundable security deposits of $194,698 (December 31, 2021 - $131,116) that have a contractual maturity in the next 12 months. There is no contractual maturity for the amounts due to related parties as there are no terms of repayment. The mortgages payable have terms maturing as disclosed in Note 8 and convertible debentures have terms maturing as disclosed in Note 9.

16. Capital Management
The primary objectives of the Company’s capital management strategy are to:
-
a) Provide an adequate return to its shareholders;
-
b) Provide adequate and efficient funding for operations;
-
c) Finance growth; and
-
d) Preserve financial flexibility to benefit from potential opportunities as they arise.
The capital structure of the Company consists of certain liabilities and equity as follows:
| September 30, | December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 2021 | |||
| Mortgages payable | $ | 33,217,652 |
$ | 21,570,535 |
| Convertible debentures | 2,290,129 | - | ||
| Due to related parties | - | 124,221 | ||
| Shareholders’ equity | 20,980,664 | 20,511,160 | ||
| $ | 56,488,445 |
$ | 42,205,916 |
In managing capital, the Company estimates its future cash requirements by preparing a budget. The budget establishes the activities for the upcoming year and estimates the costs associated with these activities. Historically, funding for the Company's plan is primarily managed through its rental activities and through obtaining financing. There is no assurance that funds will be made available to the Company when required. There have been no changes to the Company’s capital management policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021.
An individual investment property holding company is required to maintain mortgages payable covenants which are assessed by the lender on an annual basis (Note 8).
17. Subsequent Events
On October 21, 2022, the Company announced, subject to TSX Venture Exchange and other regulatory approvals, a non-brokered private placement of up to 2,000 unsecured convertible debentures (the “October 2022 Convertible Debentures”) at an issue price of $1,000 per October 2022 Convertible Debenture for gross proceeds of up to $2,000,000. Each October 2022 Convertible Debenture has a principal amount of $1,000 with an interest rate of 8% per annum payable annually, only in cash without any conversion of that interest component into common shares.
Each October 2022 Convertible Debenture will mature on the date that is 5 years from the date of issuance of the October 2022 Convertible Debenture. For a period of thirty (30) calendar days following the third (3rd) and fourth (4th) anniversary after the closing date, the October 2022 Convertible Debenture holder has the right, but not the obligation, to retract the principal amount of the October 2022 Convertible Debenture so that the principal amount owing under the October 2022 Convertible Debenture, and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, will be payable in cash by the Company on the date that is one hundred and eighty (180) calendar days after receipt of the retraction notice by the Company.
The principal amount of each October 2022 Convertible Debenture may, at the option of the October 2022 Convertible Debenture holder, be convertible, in whole or in part, into common shares at a conversion price of $0.30 per common share.
