PlantX Life Inc. (formerly Vegaste Technologies Corp.) Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and for the period from October 11, 2019 (date of incorporation) to December 31, 2019 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited)
1. Nature of Operations
PlantX Life Inc. (formerly Vegaste Technologies Corp.) (“PlantX” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia. PlantX was formerly an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral resource properties in Canada.
On August 5, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of PlantX Living Inc. (formerly PlantX Life Inc.) (“PlantX Living”). In connection with the acquisition, the Company also consolidated its common shares on the basis of one postconsolidation share for ten pre-consolidation shares and changed its name from “Winston Resources Inc.” to “Vegaste Technologies Corp.”. The acquisition was a reverse takeover transaction, and the Company carried on the business of PlantX Living (Note 13). On September 28, 2020, the Company changed its name to “PlantX Life Inc.”
On November 6, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Bloombox Club Ltd. (“Bloombox”). Bloombox is a privately held e-commerce company based in the United Kingdom that sells and delivers indoor plants to its established wellness community via subscription service and on-line shop (Note 14).
PlantX is a reporting issuer in the jurisdictions of British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario and lists its Common Shares for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) under the new symbol “VEGA”, on the OTCQB® Venture Market under the symbol “PLTXF” and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “WNT1”.
The head office of the Company is located at 504-100 Park Royal South West Vancouver, BC, V7T 1A2, Canada.
2. Going Concern Assumption
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The use of these principles under IFRS assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. The Company continues to incur operating losses, which casts significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Management’s current strategy is to control costs while pursuing opportunities within various market sectors. Management recognizes the Company’s need to increase its cash reserves if it intends to adhere to its plans and has evaluated its potential sources of funds. Although management intends to assess and act on these options throughout the course of the year, there can be no assurance that the steps management take will be successful.
In the event that cash flow from operations, together with the proceeds from any future financings are insufficient to cover planned expenditures, management will allocate available resources in such manner as deemed to be in the Company’s best interest. This may result in a significant reduction in the scope of existing and planned operations.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2020, the Company generated revenue of $2,292,376 and as of December 31, 2020 had a deficit of $12,372,441 (March 31, 2020 - $342,386). The Company is actively seeking additional sources of financing. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. Management is aware, in making its assessment, of uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon its ability to continue as a going concern that these uncertainties are material and, therefore, that it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements. These adjustments could be material.

2. Going Concern Assumption (Continued)
Since March 2020, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19”, has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which included the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruptions to business globally in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time.
3. Statement of Compliance and Basis of Presentation
(a) Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information. These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on February 26, 2021.
(b) Basis of presentation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 and on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments which may be carried at fair value and have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars. All values are rounded to the nearest dollar unless otherwise indicated.
(c) Basis of consolidation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control exists when the Company has power over an investee, exposure or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the Company’s returns.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its significant subsidiaries listed in the following table:
| Name | Country of **incorporation ** |
Functional Currency |
% equity interest as at December 31, 2020 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vegaste Technologies US Corp. (“Vegaste”) | US | U.S Dollar | 100% |
| PlantX Living | Canada | Canadian Dollar | 100% |
| Bloombox Club Ltd. | United Kingdom | Pound Sterling | 100% |
All intercompany transactions, balances and any unrealized gains and losses from intercompany transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

4. Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The Company’s management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.
Estimates and assumptions where there is significant risk of material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods include the fair value measurements for financial instruments and, the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accounting policies. The most significant judgments in applying the Company’s financial statements include the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
(b) Foreign currency translation
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Canadian dollars using exchange rates in effect at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rate in effect at the measurement date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using the historical exchange rate or the exchange rate in effect at the measurement date for items recognized at FVTPL. Gains and losses arising from foreign exchange are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Translation to presentation currency
The results and financial position of those entities with a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
-
assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the Statements of Financial Position;
-
income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates; and
-
all resulting exchange differences are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss. On disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Company’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation) all exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the equity holders of the Company are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income/loss to net income/loss for the period.
(c) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. All financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value, adjusted for directly attributable transaction costs. The Company determines each financial instrument’s classification upon initial recognition. Measurement in subsequent periods depends on the financial instrument’s classification.

4. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
(c) Financial instruments (continued)
Classification
The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), at fair value through other comprehensive income (loss) (“FVTOCI”) or at amortized cost. The Company determines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of debt instruments is driven by the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI. Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for trading or derivatives) or the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.
Measurement
Financial assets at FVTOCI
Elected investments in equity investments at FVTOCI are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive loss and never reclassified to profit and loss. The Company has no financial assets classified as FVTOCI.
Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost
Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost include trade receivable, due from related party, accounts payable and due to related party.
Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL
Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transactions costs expensed in the statements of comprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are recorded in the statements of comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise. Cash is classified as FVTPL.
Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost
The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost.
At each reporting date, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset’s credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the twelve-month expected credit losses. The Company shall recognize in the statements of comprehensive loss, as an impairment gain or loss, the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized.
Derecognition
Financial assets
The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in the statements of comprehensive loss. However, gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

4. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
(c) Financial instruments (continued)
Financial liabilities
The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when its obligations under the financial liabilities are discharged, cancelled or expired. Generally, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in the statements of comprehensive loss.
(c) Loss per share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is determined by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of dilutive instruments such as options granted to employees. The effects of anti-dilutive potential units are ignored in calculating diluted earnings per share. All options and warrants are considered anti-dilutive when the Company is in a loss position.
(d) Intangible assets
The Company’s intangible assets consist of a finite life intangible asset that is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Finite life intangible assets are amortized once they are in use on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company’s intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life of 5 years.
(e) Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amount of the Company’s non-financial assets (which include intangible assets and goodwill) is reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive loss.
The recoverable amount of assets is the greater of an asset’s fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.
An impairment loss is only reversed if there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer exist and there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. Any reversal of impairment cannot increase the carrying value of the asset to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in previous years.
Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment.
(f) Share capital
Common shares are classified as equity. Transaction costs directly attributable to the issue of common shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

When the Company issues units that are comprised of a combination of shares and warrants, the value is assigned to shares and warrants based on their relative fair values. The fair value of the shares is determined by the closing price on the date of the transaction and the fair value of the warrants is determined based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.
(h) Share-based compensation
The Company grants stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants. Share-based compensation is measured on the grant date at the fair value of equity instruments issued, using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and is recognized over the vesting periods. A corresponding increase in share-based payment reserve is recorded when stock options are expensed. When stock options are exercised, share capital is credited by the sum of the consideration paid and the related portion of share-based compensation previously recorded in contributed surplus. Share-based compensation arrangements in which the Company receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments are accounted for as equity settled share-based payment transactions and measured at the fair value of goods or services received. If the fair value of the goods or services received cannot be estimated reliably, the sharebased payment transaction is measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the date the Company receives the goods or the services.
(i) Business combination
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of the business combination is measured as the aggregate of the fair values (at the date of exchange) of assets acquired and liabilities incurred or assumed. The acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3, Business Combinations, are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.
(j) Income taxes
Current income tax:
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current period are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted, at the reporting date, in the countries where the Company operates and generates taxable income.
Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in other comprehensive income or equity is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity and not in profit or loss. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
Deferred income tax:
Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes

4. Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
(j) Income taxes (continued)
Deferred income tax:
Deferred income tax is provided using the balance sheet method on temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized only to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
(k) Revenue
The Company adopted all requirements of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”) as of January 1, 2018. IFRS 15 utilizes a methodical framework for entities to follow to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.
The IFRS 15 model contains the following five-step contract-based analysis of transactions guiding revenue recognition:
-
Identify the contract with a customer;
-
Identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract;
-
Determine the transaction price;
-
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and
-
Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligation(s).
Revenue comprises the fair value of consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of the Company’s activities. Revenue is shown net of returns and discounts.
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers control over a good or service to a customer.
The Company operates websites where customers can purchase high-quality plant-based food and beverage products from various suppliers and also distributes these products through wholesale arrangements. The Company also offers household plants, cosmetics and plant-based pet food on the same platform. The Company’s primary sources of revenue are sales made through its website, wholesale arrangements and sales made directly to restaurants and grocery stores.
The Company transfers control and satisfies its performance obligation when the plant-based food and beverage products are delivered and accepted by its customers.
(l) Future accounting pronouncements
There are no other IFRS or International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee interpretation that are not yet effective that are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

5. Risk Management and Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, investments, amounts due to/from related party, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and loans payable. The carrying values of the financial instruments approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Fair value of financial assets and liabilities, information related to risk management positions and discussion of risks associated with financial assets and liabilities are presented as follows:
Fair value
IFRS 13 establishes a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making fair value measurements as follows:
Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. from derived prices); and Level 3 inputs for the asset or liability that are not based upon observable market data.
As at December 31, 2020, the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximates their fair value due to their short terms to maturity. The fair value of cash was determined using level 1 inputs.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company’s primary exposure to credit risk is in its cash accounts and trade receivable. The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash, by placing cash at major Canadian financial institutions. Accounts receivable mainly consists of receivables from its customers. At December 31, 2020, 46% of the Company’s accounts receivable were from one customer. The Company considers that no bad provision for the trade receivable is necessary based on the current business situation of its debtors at the reporting date.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash balances to meet liabilities as they become due. At December 31, 2020, the Company had a cash balance of $7,924,486 and current liabilities of $2,234,047. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 90 days. The Company is not exposed to liquidity risk.
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 exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return on capital. As at December 31, 2020, the Company is not exposed to significant market risk.
