Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements May 31, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) (Unaudited)
1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
NeonMind Biosciences Inc. (formerly Flourish Mushroom Labs Inc.) (“NeonMind” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia, on September 18, 2019. On April 9, 2020, the Company changed its name to NeonMind Biosciences Inc. The Company is engaged in drug development research into potential therapeutic uses of psychedelic compounds, and develops ready-to-consume packaged food products mixed with mushroom varietals. On December 29, 2020, the Company’s common shares were listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “Exchange”) and were immediately halted pending the closing of its initial public offering (“IPO”). On December 30, 2020, the Company completed its IPO and on January 4, 2021 the Company’s common shares resumed trading on the Exchange under the ticker symbol “NEON.”
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Management is aware, in making its going concern assessment, of material uncertainties related to events and conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company has incurred a net loss of $5,123,968 and used $3,597,599 of cash for operating activities during the six months ended May 31, 2021. As of May 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital of $1,324,715 and an accumulated deficit of $11,005,352. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on future profitable operations, management’s ability to manage costs, and the future availability of equity or debt financing. Whether and when the Company can generate sufficient operating cash flows to pay for its expenditures and settle its obligations as they fall due is uncertain. These condensed interim financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary were the going concern assumption be inappropriate. The impact of these adjustments could be material.
The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, has led to adverse impacts on the Canadian and global economies, disruptions of financial markets, and created uncertainty regarding potential impacts to the Company’s supply chain and operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and could further impact the Company’s operations and the operations of the Company’s suppliers and vendors as a result of quarantines, facility closures, and travel and logistics restrictions. As a result of the pandemic, the Company experienced delays in its planned product launches. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to the duration, spread, severity, and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s suppliers and vendors and the remedial actions and stimulus measures adopted by local and federal governments, and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. The management team is closely following the progression of COVID-19 and its potential impact on the Company and is working on alternative measures and resources to minimize such impact. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, the Company may experience adverse impacts to its business as a result of any economic recession or depression that has occurred or may occur in the future. Therefore, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the impact at this time our business, liquidity, capital resources and financial results.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and based on the principles of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee. These condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2020, which include the Company’s significant accounting policies, and have been prepared in accordance with the same methods of application.
Basis of Presentation
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. In addition, these condensed interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for the cash flow information. The presentation and functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar.
In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgments
The preparation of condensed interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the collectability of accounts receivable, net realizable value of inventory, useful life and carrying value of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, carrying value of investment in associate, fair value of share-based compensation, and measurement of unrecognized deferred income tax assets.
Judgments made by management in the application of IFRS that have a significant effect on the condensed interim financial statements include the factors that are used in determining whether the Company has significant influence over another entity, and the application of the going concern assumption which requires management to consider all available information about the future, which is at least but not limited to 12 months from the end of the reporting period.
The Company had previously determined that it has significant influence in Komo Plant Based Comfort Foods Inc. (“Komo Foods”) despite holding less than 20% of the voting rights in Komo Foods due to the company sharing a common CFO, and the fact that the Company and Komo Foods entered into a license agreement that was a key component of Komo Food’s business in prior periods. As a result, Komo Foods was considered an associate of the Company, and the investment in Komo Foods was accounted for using the equity method. The equity method involves recording the initial investment at cost and subsequently adjusting the carrying value of the investment for the Company’s proportionate share of the profit or loss, other comprehensive income or loss and any other changes in the associate’s net assets, such as further investments or dividends. During the six months ended May 31, 2021, Komo Foods entered into a merger agreement and management determined that significant influence in Komo Foods no longer existed (Note 3 and 5) and the Company reclassified its investment to fair value through profit and loss under IFRS 9.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no material effect on the statement of financial position or the reported results of operations.
Future Accounting Pronouncements
Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB, or the IFRS Interpretations Committee that are not mandatory for the current period and have not been early adopted. Management has assessed that there are no future accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting periods.
3. Marketable securities

Marketable Securities
Komo Plant Based Foods Inc. (formerly Fasttask Technologies Inc.) (“Komo YUM”)
On May 31, 2021, Komo Foods entered into a merger agreement with Komo YUM whereby Komo Foods became a wholly owned subsidiary of Komo YUM and all Komo Foods shares were exchanged 1-to-1 for Komo YUM shares. The transaction was deemed as a reverse acquisition under IFRS 3 Business Combinations.
The Company’s investment in Komo Foods was previously accounted for as an Investment in Associate (Note 5). As a result of the merger, the Company’s holdings of 1,250,000 shares of Komo Foods were exchanged for 1,250,000 shares of Komo YUM. Management performed an analysis to determine whether significant influence over Komo YUM remained after the merger. Management concluded that the Company no longer has significant influence over Komo YUM as its ownership decreased to 1.5% of the outstanding shares at May 31, 2021. In addition to the decreased ownership, the Company does not have any representation on the board of directors, having no common directors between the Company and Komo YUM.
As at May 31, 2021, the Company holds 1,250,000 shares (May 31, 2020 – 1,250,000) of Komo YUM.
4. Short-term investments
During the period ended May 31, 2021, the Company invested in a variable rate GIC in the principal amount of $57,500 as security for the credit card with the Company’s banking institution.

7. Investment in Associate
Komo Foods is a plant-based food company engaged in the development, production, marketing, and distribution of a variety of plant-based frozen meals. On December 1, 2020, Komo Foods entered into a 1-for4 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common shares. All common share amounts have been retroactively restated for the reverse stock split.
On February 21, 2020, the Company entered into a license agreement with Komo Foods, whereby the Company granted Komo Foods a non-exclusive license to the Company’s mushroom extraction technology for use in the United States. Pursuant to the license agreement, the Company received 1,250,000 common shares of Komo Foods, with a fair value of $415,000, representing a 4.05% ownership interest in Komo Foods at the time of the transaction.
On May 31, 2021, Komo Foods entered into a merger agreement with Komo YUM. Prior to the merger, the Company had determined that it had significant influence in Komo Foods as it shared a common CFO, and there had been significant transactions including the licensing agreement entered into with Komo Foods. As a result of having significant influence in Komo Foods, the Company’s investment in Komo Foods was accounted for as an investment in an associate using the equity method. The equity method involves recording the initial investment at cost and subsequently adjusting the carrying value of the investment for the Company’s proportionate share of the profit or loss, other comprehensive income or loss and any other changes in the associate’s net assets, such as further investments or dividends.
Subsequent to the merger, the Company’s shares of Komo Foods were exchanged 1-to-1 for Komo YUM shares and it was determined that the Company no longer has significant influence over Komo YUM. As a result, the Company began accounting for the investment in Komo Foods at fair value through profit or loss (Note 3).
During the six months ended May 31, 2021, the Company recorded its proportionate loss from Komo Foods of $54,212 (May 31, 2020 - $9,152). The carrying value of the Company’s investment in Komo Foods as at May 31, 2021 was $31,973 prior to being reclassified as an investment recorded at fair value through profit and loss (Note 3) (November 30, 2020 – $86,185). The difference between the carrying value of $31,973 and the fair value of $125,000 was recorded as a gain on reclassification of investment of $93,027 on the condensed interim statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

7. Investment in Associate (continued)
The following table outlines the changes in investment in associate that are accounted for using the equity method for the three and six months ended May 31, 2021.

14. Capital Management
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments, based on the funds available to the Company, to support the general operations of the Company and facilitate the liquidity needs of its operations. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business. The Company defines capital to include its working capital position and share capital.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding financial instruments should a counter-party default on its obligation. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to accounts receivable. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with its cash balance by dealing with major financial institutions in Canada and has no other significant concentration of credit risk arising from operations. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure.
