QuestCap Inc. (formerly Copper One Inc.) Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 (Unaudited, expressed in Canadian dollars)

1. Nature of operations and going concern

QuestCap Inc. (the “Company”) operates under the Canada Business Corporations Act . The Company completed a change of business to an investment issuer under the rules of the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) on September 4, 2019. The Company makes use of the experience, expertise and opportunity flow of its management and board of directors to opportunistically make investments that the Company believes will provide superior returns. Such investments may include the acquisition of equity, debt or other securities of publicly traded or private companies or other entities. The Company’s common shares commenced trading on the CSE under the symbol “QSC” on September 5, 2019 and were delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange effective August 13, 2019. The Company announced the change of its name from “Copper One Inc.” to “QuestCap Inc.”, following approval by the Company’s shareholders on September 25, 2019.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis of presentation, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities as they become due in the normal course of operations for the next fiscal year. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $18,654,239 and working capital of $3,721,518 as at March 31, 2020, and incurred a net loss totaling $1,315,513 during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company’s current source of operating cash flow is dependent on the marketability of its investments, and there can be no assurances that sufficient funding, including adequate financing, will be available to cover the general and administrative expenses necessary for the maintenance of a public company. The Company’s status as a going concern is contingent upon raising the necessary funds through the sale of investments and issuance of equity or debt. Management believes its working capital will be sufficient to support activities for the next 12 months and expects to raise additional funds when required and available. There can be no assurance that funds will be available to the Company under acceptable terms or at all.

The Company’s operations could be significantly adversely affected by the effects of a widespread global outbreak of a contagious disease, including the recent outbreak of respiratory illness caused by COVID-19. The Company cannot accurately predict the impact COVID-19 will have on its operations and the ability of others to meet their obligations with the Company, including uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of travel and quarantine restrictions imposed by governments of affected countries. In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could further affect the Company’s operations and ability to finance its operations.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were reviewed, approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 28, 2020. The head office and principal address of the Company is at Suite 805, 65 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2M5.

2. Significant accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting policies based on the IFRS standards International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) interpretations. The policies set out in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 were consistently applied to all of the periods presented, unless otherwise noted.

The preparation of condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the Company’s accounting policies. Certain disclosures included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments, which have been measured at fair value. All monetary references expressed in these notes are references to Canadian dollar amounts. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

New and future accounting pronouncements

IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (“IAS 8”) were amended in October 2018 to refine the definition of materiality and clarify its characteristics. The revised definition focuses on the idea that information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general-purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. The adoption of this standard on January 1, 2020 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2020 or later. Updates that are not applicable or are not consequential to the Company have been excluded. The following have not yet been adopted and are being evaluated to determine their impact on the financial statements.

IFRS 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements (“IFRS 10”) and IAS 28 – Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (“IAS 28”) were amended in September 2014 to address a conflict between the requirements of IAS 28 and IFRS 10 and clarify that in a transaction involving an associate or joint venture, the extent of gain or loss recognition depends on whether the assets sold or contributed constitute a business. The effective date of these amendments is yet to be determined; however, early adoption is permitted.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual outcomes can differ from these estimates. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised, and the revision affects both current and future periods.

Information about critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

  • Fair value of investments not quoted in an active market or private company investments

  • Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded on the statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible, but where observable market data are not available, judgment is required to establish fair values. Refer to Notes 6 and 11 for further details.

  • Fair value of financial derivatives

  • Investments in options and warrants which are not traded on a recognized securities exchange do not have a readily available market value. When there are sufficient and reliable observable market inputs, a valuation technique is used; if no such market inputs are available, the warrants and options are observed at intrinsic value. Refer to Notes 6 and 11 for further details.

Fair value/impairment of loans receivable The recoverability of loans receivable is assessed when events occur indicating impairment. Recoverability is based on factors such as failure to pay interest on time and failure to pay the principal. An impairment loss is recognized in the period when it is determined that the carrying amount of the assets will not be recoverable. Convertible debentures and convertible notes issued to publicly traded companies are carried at the higher of the loan receivable value or the fair value of the common shares or units receivable from the conversion assuming the conversion can be done at the Company’s option. Refer to Notes 3 and 11 for further details.

  • Share-based payments

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to fair value options in order to calculate share-based compensation expense. The Black-Scholes model involves six key inputs to determine the fair value of an option: risk-free interest rate, exercise price, market price of the Company’s shares at date of issue, expected dividend yield, expected life, and expected volatility. Certain inputs are estimates which involve considerable judgment and are, or could be, affected by factors that are out of the Company’s control. Refer to Note 9 for further details.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions (continued)

  • Investment entity

  • Management has determined that the Company qualifies for the exemption from consolidation given that the Company has the following typical characteristics of an investment entity:

  • a) obtains funds from one or more investors for the purpose of providing those investor(s) with investment management services;

  • b) commits to its investor(s) that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and

  • c) measures and evaluates the performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis.

  • Contingencies

  • See Note 13.

On November 12, 2019, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Newdene Gold Inc., whereby the Company agreed to lend $300,000.

9. Share-based payments reserve (continued)

The Company has a stock-option plan whereby the Company may grant to directors, officers, employees and consultants options to purchase shares of the Company. The plan provides for the issuance of stock options to acquire up to 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding capital. The plan is a rolling plan as the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to the grant of stock options will increase as the Company's issued and outstanding share capital increases. Options granted under the plan will be for a term not to exceed 5 years.

The following options were in existence at March 31, 2020:

5,513,800 5,013,800 767,767

Options issued by the Company are priced using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Where relevant, the expected life used in the model is adjusted based on managements’ best estimate for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions (including the probability of meeting market conditions attached to the option), and behavioural considerations. Expected volatility is based on the historical share price volatility over the past 5 years. The expected life of the option is calculated based on the history of option exercises. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options exercisable at March 31, 2020 was 3.6 years (December 31, 2019 – 3.5 years).

On March 30, 2020, the Company granted 2,490,000 to certain directors, officers, and consultants of the Company. 1,990,000 of the stock options vest immediately and the remaining 500,000 stock options vest in four equal quarterly installments ending on March 30, 2021. The vested options have an estimated value of $367,553 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 105.0%; risk-free interest rate of 0.62%; and an expected average life of 5 years.

10. Capital management

The Company considers its capital structure to consist of share capital and share purchase options. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments based on the funds available to support its capital management objectives:

  • a) to allow the Company to respond to changes in economic and/or marketplace conditions by maintaining the Company’s ability to purchase new investments;

  • b) to give shareholders sustained growth in value by increasing shareholders’ equity; while

  • c) taking a conservative approach towards financial leverage and management of financial risks

10. Capital management (continued)

The management and board of directors of the Company review its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believe it reflects a reasonable approach given the relative size of the Company’s assets. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements other than those of the Canadian Securities Exchange, where investment entities must have minimum net assets of $2,000,000, at least 50% of which has been allocated to at least 2 specific investments. As at March 31, 2020, the Company may not be complaint with the policies of the CSE. The impact of any violation is not known and is ultimately dependent on the discretion of the CSE.

11. Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows:

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities - -(315,996) (315,996)

The Company’s operations involve the purchase and sale of securities. In addition, the Company may have loans receivable outstanding. Accordingly, the majority of the Company’s assets are currently comprised of financial instruments which can expose it to several risks, including liquidity, credit, and market risks. A discussion of the Company’s use of financial instruments and their associated risks is provided below:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk associated with the inability of a third party to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company is exposed to the risk that third parties that owe it money or securities will not perform their underlying obligations. The total carrying value of these financial instruments at March 31, 2020 was $1,387,843 (December 31, 2019 - $1,315,625).

11. Financial instruments (continued)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not have sufficient cash resources to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company’s liquidity and operating results may be adversely affected if the Company’s access to the capital markets is hindered, whether as a result of a downturn in stock market conditions generally or related to matters specific to the Company, or if the value of the Company’s investments declines, resulting in losses upon disposition. In addition, some of the investments the Company holds are lightly traded public corporations or not publicly traded and may not be easily liquidated.

The Company generates cash flow from proceeds from the disposition of its investments. There can be no assurances that sufficient funding, including adequate financing, will be available to cover the general and administrative expenses necessary for the maintenance of a public company. All of the Company’s assets, liabilities and obligations are due within one year.

As at March 31, 2020, the Company had working capital of $3,721,518 (December 31, 2019- working capital of $1,984,478), which included cash of $1,329,382 (December 31, 2019- $976), investments of $783,290 (December 31, 2019- $766,036), note and loans receivable of $327,148 (December 31, 2019- $1,001,930), amounts receivable of $1,060,695 (December 31, 2019- $313,695) and prepaid expenses of $1,221,754 (December 31, 2019- $217,837), offset by current liabilities of $1,000,751 (December 31, 2019- $315,996). The Company expects to raise additional net working capital to finance its planned activities.

The following table shows the Company’s sources of liquidity by assets at March 31, 2020:

Total Less than 1 year 1-3 years
Cash $ 1,329,382 $ 1,329,382 $ -

11. Financial instruments (continued)

Market risk

a) Currency risk

  • Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of, or future cash flows from, the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company operates in Canada and its functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company’s foreign currency risk arises primarily with respect to the United States dollar. Management believes the foreign exchange risk derived from currency conversions is negligible and therefore does not engage in hedging activities to mitigate this risk. The Company reduces its currency risk by maintaining minimal cash balances held in foreign currency.

As at March 31, 2020, the Company had the following financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (amounts posted in Canadian dollars):

March 31, 2020 United States dollars
Cash $ 321,024
Trade and otherpayables (332,796)
$ (11,772)

A 10% increase in the value of the Canadian dollar against all foreign currencies in which the Company held financial instruments as of March 31, 2020 would result in an estimated increase (decrease) in income of approximately ($1,500) (December 31, 2019 - $(62,000).

  • b) Interest rate risk

A 10% increase in interest rates based on the balance of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2020, would result in a negligible increase in annual interest income.

  • c) Price and concentration risk

The Company is exposed to market risk in trading its investments and unfavourable market conditions could result in dispositions of investments at unfavourable prices.

Two investments at fair value through profit and loss make up approximately 16% of the Company’s assets and one loan receivable makes up approximately 6.5% of the Company’s assets. The price of gold and the unknown risks related to COVID-19 could affect the value of these financial instruments. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, a 10% decrease in the value of these concentrated positions would result in a decrease in before-tax income of approximately $20,000.

Fair value hierarchy

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy with respect to required disclosures about the inputs to fair value measurements are:

  • Level 1- Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

  • • Level 2- Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

  • Level 3- Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

11. Financial instruments (continued)

Fair value hierarchy (continued)

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy as at March 31, 2020:

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 TOTAL
As at March 31, 2020
Public investments $ - $ 223,290
$ -
$ 223,290
Private investments - - 560,000 560,000
Loan receivable - 316,482 - 316,482
Total $ - $ 539,772 $ 560,000 $ 1,099,772

Level 2 Hierarchy

At March 31, 2020, the 172,071 common shares of Last Mile Holdings Ltd. (formerly OjO Electric Corp.) were held in escrow, and therefore the full value of the investment of $22,369 has been recorded at Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

At March 31, 2020, the 5,740,605 common shares of Sulliden were held in escrow, and therefore the full value of the investment of $200,921 has been recorded at Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The loan receivable from Newdene Gold Inc. has a conversion feature as disclosed in Note 3. As of March 31, 2020, the fair value of the conversion feature was assessed to be less than the fair value of the loan receivable based on the market price of the underlying security to be received upon conversion. The loan receivable balance has been recorded at Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Level 3 Hierarchy

Within Level 3, the Company includes private company investments that are not quoted on an exchange. The key assumptions used in the valuation of these investments include (but are not limited to) the value at which a recent financing was done by the investee, company-specific information, trends in general market conditions and the share performance of comparable publicly traded companies.

The following table presents the fair value, categorized by key valuation techniques and the unobservable inputs used within Level 3 as at March 31, 2020:

Range of
Significant significant
Valuation unobservable unobservable
Description Fair vaue technique input(s) input(s)
Marketability of
Eco Capital Growth Corp. $ 560,000
Net asset value shares 0% discount

11. Financial instruments (continued)

Fair value hierarchy (continued)

Eco Capital Growth Corp.

The valuation at March 31, 2020 was based on the fair value of the Company’s common shares issued in the transaction. Management has determined that there are no reasonable possible alternative assumptions that would change the fair value significantly as at March 31, 2020. A 10% change in fair value would result in a change of income of approximately $56,000 at March 31, 2020. Had the Company applied a marketability discount of 5%, it would have resulted in a corresponding decrease of approximately $28,000 in income.

As valuations of investments for which market quotations are not readily available are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate within short periods of time and are based on estimates, determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have resulted if a ready market existed for the investments. Such changes may have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or operating results.
