Overview

Ankh Capital Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on November 30, 2020. The Company was formed for the primary purpose of completing an Initial Public Offering (“IPO” or “Offering”) on the TSX Venture Exchange (“Exchange”) as a Capital Pool Company (“CPC”) as defined in Policy 2.4 of the Exchange. The principal business of the Company is the identification and evaluation of assets or businesses with a view to completing a Qualifying Transaction. The Company has not commenced operations and has no significant assets. The Company’s head office is 250 Howe Street 20th Floor, Vancouver, BC V6C 3R8, Canada. The Company’s registered and records office is located at 250 Howe Street 20th Floor, Vancouver, BC V6C 3R8, Canada.

The Exchange issued a bulletin approving the listing of the common shares as of market open on October 15, 2021, and the common shares started trading under the symbol “ANKH” on October 19, 2021.

COVID-19 (the coronavirus) has threatened a slowdown in the global economy as well as caused volatility in the global financial markets. While the full impact of COVID-19 on the global economy is uncertain, rapid spread of COVID-19 may have an adverse effect on the Company's financing capabilities. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s business will depend on future developments such as the geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions and social distancing,

business closures or business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Canada, the United States and other countries to contain and treat the virus. Although it is not possible to reliably estimate the length or severity of these developments and their financial impact to the date of approval of these financial statements, these conditions could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations for future periods.

Such adjustments could be material.

Capital Management and Financial Risk Management

The Company’s capital currently consists of shareholders’ equity in the amount of $974,030 as at November 30, 2022. Its principal source of cash is from the issuance of common shares. The Company’s capital management objectives are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to have sufficient capital to be able to identify, evaluate and then acquire an interest in businesses or assets.

The proceeds raised from the issuance of share capital may only be used to identify and evaluate assets or businesses for future investment, with the exception that up to $3,000 per month may be used for reasonable general and administrative expenses of the Company. These restrictions apply until completion of a Qualifying Transaction by the Company as defined under the policies of the Exchange Policy 2.4.

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares.

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 cash is exposed to credit risk, with the carrying value being the Company’s maximum exposure. The Company’s cash consists of funds held in trust. Management believes the Company’s exposure to credit risk is not material.

5

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities are all current and due within 90 days of the statement of financial position date. The Company seeks to ensure that it has sufficient capital to meet short term financial obligations after taking into account its operating obligations and cash on hand.

Market Risk

The risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk. Management does not believe the Company is exposed to significant currency, interest or other price risk.

Other Risk Factors

Investment in the common shares must be regarded as highly speculative due to the proposed nature of the Company's business and its present stage of development. The following are risk factors associated with the Company:

  • the Company was only recently incorporated, has not commenced commercial operations and has no assets other than cash and prepaid. It has no history of earnings, and shall not generate earnings or pay dividends until at least after Completion of a Qualifying Transaction;

  • investment in the common shares is highly speculative given the nature of the Company's business and present stage of development;

  • the directors and officers of the Company will only devote a portion of their time to the business and affairs of the Company and some of them are or will be engaged in other projects or businesses such that conflicts of interest may arise from time to time;

  • there can be no assurance that an active and liquid market for the Company's common shares will develop and an investor may find it difficult to resell its common shares;

  • the Company has only limited funds with which to identify and evaluate a potential Qualifying Transactions and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify a suitable Qualifying Transaction;

  • even if a proposed Qualifying Transaction is identified, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully complete the transaction. Completion of a Qualifying Transaction is subject to a number of conditions including acceptance by the Exchange and, in the case of a Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction, Majority of the Minority Approval;

  • unless the shareholder has the right to dissent and be paid fair value in accordance with applicable corporate or other law, a shareholder who votes against a proposed Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction for which Majority of the Minority Approval by shareholders has been given, will have no rights of dissent and no entitlement to payment by the Company of fair value for the Common Shares;

  • upon public announcement of a proposed Qualifying Transaction, trading in the Common Shares of the Company will be halted and will remain halted for an indefinite period of time, typically until a Sponsor has been retained and certain preliminary reviews have been conducted. The Common Shares of the Company will be reinstated to trading before the Exchange has reviewed the transaction and before the Sponsor has completed its full review. Reinstatement to trading provides no assurance with respect to the merits of the transaction or the likelihood of the Company completing the proposed Qualifying Transaction; trading in the Common Shares of the Company may be halted at other times for other

6

reasons, including for failure by the Company to submit documents to the Exchange in the time periods required; neither the Exchange nor any securities regulatory authority passes upon the merits of the proposed Qualifying Transaction;

  • in the event that management of the Company resides outside of Canada or the Company identifies a foreign business as a proposed Qualifying Transaction, investors may find it difficult or impossible to effect service or notice to commence legal proceedings upon any management resident outside of Canada or upon the foreign business and may find it difficult or impossible to enforce against such persons, judgments obtained in Canadian courts;

  • the Qualifying Transaction may be financed in whole or in part by the issuance of additional securities by the Company and this may result in further dilution to the investor, which dilution may be significant and which may also result in a change of control of the Corporation;

  • subject to prior acceptance by the Exchange, the Company may be permitted to loan or advance up to an aggregate of $25,000 of its proceeds to a target business without requiring shareholder approval and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to recover that loan; and

  • the Company cannot be certain and provides no guarantee that, if a Qualifying Transaction is completed, the business acquired pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction will be profitable or ultimately benefit the Company and its shareholders. Neither the Exchange nor any securities regulatory authority passes on the merits of the proposed Qualifying Transaction. The Qualifying Transaction may also result in additional dilution to the Corporation's shareholders, increased debt or a change in control of the Corporation. Any failure to successfully integrate a business acquired pursuant to the Qualifying Transaction or a failure of such business to benefit the Corporation, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and results of operations.
