Jasper Commerce Inc. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements For the three months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023 (Unaudited)(in Canadian Dollars)

1. Nature of operations and going concern

Jasper Commerce Inc. (together with its subsidiary, the “Company” or “Jasper”) was incorporated on March 22, 2021, under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Company is domiciled in Canada and its head office, principal address and records office are located at 15 Wellesley Street West, Suite 214, Toronto, Ontario, M4Y 0G7. The Company’s common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol JPIM.

Jasper is a Software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) Product Information Management (“PIM“) solution empowering eCommerce retailers, wholesalers or distributors to centralize, organize and richly merchandise their products from a single central repository.

Jasper’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing to support its operations or to generate sufficient and sustained cash flows from its operating activities. It is not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful in the future. Failure to obtain such financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of the Company’s strategic goals. These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

2. Basis of presentation

Significant accounting policies

Debenture 1: Each convertible debenture is convertible at the holder's option into fully-paid common shares at any time prior to the maturity date at a conversion price of $0.10 per common share. If the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares for any 60-day period prior to the maturity date equals or exceeds $0.35 per common share then any outstanding convertible debentures at that time automatically will be converted into common shares at the then applicable conversion price effective the 60th day of such period. The convertible debentures are secured obligations of the Company and have a floating charge over the Company's assets.

Debenture 2: Each convertible debenture is convertible at the holder's option into fully-paid common shares at any time prior to the maturity date at a conversion price of $0.05 per common share before December 21, 2025 and at $0.10 per common share thereafter. The convertible debentures are secured obligations of the Company and have a floating charge over the Company's assets.

b) Options

Under Jasper’s current Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”), its directors may approve the issuance of stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company and its affiliates. The aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan is up to 10% of the number of outstanding common shares. As at January 31, 2024, 5,034,989 stock options remain outstanding at exercise prices ranging from $0.05 to $0.50 per share. Options may vest immediately or may vest ratably over a period of three years. All options have a life of five years and have expiry dates ranging from April 2024 to December 2028.

Jasper measures compensation costs associated with stock-based compensation using the fair value method and the cost is recognized over the vesting period of the underlying security. Expected volatilities are based on market data of public companies in a similar industry and of a similar size as Jasper. The fair value of each option is determined at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

During the three months ended January 31, 2024, ($37,433) (2022 – $3,319) was recognized as stock-based compensation in profit and loss. This expense includes a reversal of $50,215 (2022 – $62,589) of expenses recognized in a previous period for which the award did not ultimately vest.

At January 31, 2024, the remaining unvested value of the Company’s stock options is $29,383 which will be recognized through May 2026.

Loans payable (Note 4) Amortized cost 504,915 482,084
Convertible debentures (Note 5) Amortized cost 680,340 784,065

b) Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

The fair values for loans payable and convertible debentures are estimated assuming a market rate of interest for arms-length debt would be 25%.

Financial instruments recorded at fair value are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements. The hierarchy is summarized as follows:

  • Level 1 Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

  • Level 2 Inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices) from observable market data.

10

Jasper Commerce Inc. Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements For the three months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023 (Unaudited)(in Canadian Dollars)

  • Level 3 Inputs for assets and liabilities not based upon observable market data.

Jasper’s loans and debentures are measured on initial recognition using level 3 inputs.

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 for the three months ending January 31, 2024 and 2023.

10. Financial risk management

a) Currency risk

Jasper operates internationally and is exposed to risk from changes in foreign currency rates. Foreign currency risk arises from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates relative to the Canadian dollar. The Company sells PIM software subscriptions and consulting services in both Canadian and foreign currencies. The sale of software and services in foreign currencies gives rise to the risk that the Company’s income and cash flows may be adversely impacted by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Certain purchases of services and equipment are also made in non-Canadian currencies. The Company does not actively manage this risk and uses its natural hedge to mitigate, to the extent possible, the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations.

Jasper is primarily exposed to foreign exchange risk from transactions in U.S. dollars. The sensitivity analysis of its exposure to currency risk has been determined based on a hypothetical change in the foreign exchange rates taking place at the reporting date. Fluctuations of 10% in the exchange rates for these currencies, when compared to the Canadian dollar, are not expected to individually have a material effect on the Company’s results of financial performance.

b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to Jasper if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

At January 31, 2024, all Jasper’s cash and cash equivalents were held at one major Canadian bank.

In the normal course of business, Jasper continuously monitors the financial condition of its customers and reviews the credit history of each new customer. As of January 31, 2024, two customers represented 58% (July 31, 2023 – four customers represented 59%) of the Company’s trade receivables. The Company is using the simplified expected credit losses method to estimate its provision for credit losses, which considers the specific credit risk of its customers, the expected lifetime of its financial assets, historical trends and economic conditions.
