StorageVault Canada Inc. Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Independent Auditor's Report

==> picture [139 x 59] intentionally omitted <==

To the Shareholders of StorageVault Canada Inc.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of StorageVault Canada Inc. and its subsidiary (the "Corporation"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Corporation as at December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Corporation in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audits of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises:

Management's Discussion and Analysis
The information, other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, in the Annual Report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not and will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audits or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of the auditor’s report. If, based on the work we will perform on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Corporation or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Corporation’s financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Corporation to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audits and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audits.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Sean Du Plessis.

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

1. Description of Business

The consolidated financial statements of StorageVault Canada Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Corporation”) as at and for the year ended December 31, 2020, were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Corporation on February 23, 2021. The Corporation is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act of Alberta and is domiciled in Canada. Its shares are publicly traded on the TSX Venture Exchange (“Exchange”). The address of its registered office is 1000 – 250 2[nd] Street SW, Calgary, AB, T2P 0C1.

The Corporation’s primary business is owning, managing and renting self storage and portable storage space to individual and commercial customers. The Corporation also stores, shreds, and manages documents and records for individual and commercial customers.

2. Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto present the Corporation’s financial results of operations and financial position under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and effective as at January 1, 2020.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost method, except for the revaluation of certain financial assets and financial liabilities to fair value. The consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, and are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Corporation’s functional currency.

3. Accounting Policies

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of StorageVault Canada Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Spyhill Ltd., both of which are headquartered in Toronto, Ontario. On January 1, 2020, the Corporation completed a vertical amalgamation with its wholly owned subsidiary, Sentinel SelfStorage Corporation, to form StorageVault Canada Inc. The financial statements for the consolidated entities are prepared for the same reporting period as StorageVault Canada Inc. using consistent accounting policies. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the rendering of services and sale of goods are recognized at the fair value of consideration received or receivable after the deduction of any trade discounts and excluding sales taxes.

The Corporation’s revenue comprises the renting of storage units to customers, information and records management, managing storage facilities on behalf of third parties and sale of merchandise, including locks, boxes, packing supplies and equipment.

Revenue earned from the renting of storage units is accounted for under IFRS 16 – Leases. Storage units are rented to customers pursuant to rental agreements which provide for weekly or monthly rental terms with non-refundable rental payments. The rental agreements may be terminated by the customer without further obligation or cost upon vacating the storage unit. Revenue from rental agreements is recognized

Notes: 1

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Note 3 – Continued

over the rental term pursuant to the rental agreement. Non-refundable customer deposits, which are received to hold a unit for rent at a future date, are deferred and recognized as revenue upon commencement of the rental agreement. Receipts of rental fees for future periods are deferred and recognized as revenue when each respective monthly period commences.

The Corporation earns a management fee based on a percentage of gross revenues of the operations for managing storage facilities for third parties. Revenue is recognized over time when the services are rendered.

Revenue for other storage related services is recognized in the month the respective services are provided. Receipts of fees for other storage related services for future periods are deferred and recognized as revenue when each respective monthly period commences. A provision is made for expected allowances as necessary.

Revenue from the sale of merchandise, including locks, boxes, packing supplies and equipment, is recognized at the point in time when the merchandise is delivered to the customer.

Business Combinations

All business combinations are accounted for by applying the acquisition method. Upon acquisition, the assets (including intangible assets), liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired are measured at their fair value. The Corporation recognizes intangible assets as part of business combinations at fair value at the date of acquisition. The determination of these fair values is based upon management’s judgment and includes assumptions on the timing and amount of future cash flows generated by the assets acquired and the selection of an appropriate discount rate. Acquisition and integration costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Goodwill represents the excess of the identifiable cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Corporation's share of the net assets and net liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition. If the identifiable cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the Corporation's share of the net assets/net liabilities acquired (i.e. a discount on acquisition), the difference is credited to the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the period of acquisition. At the acquisition date, goodwill acquired is recognized as an asset and allocated to each cash-generating unit (“CGU”) expected to benefit from the business combination’s synergies, and to the lowest level at which management monitors the goodwill.

If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Corporation reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted retrospectively during the measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities are recognized, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized as of that date. The measurement period is the period from the date of acquisition to the date the Corporation obtains complete information about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date up to a maximum of one year.

Note 3 – Continued

Cash and Short Term Deposits

Cash and short term deposits on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position are comprised of cash at bank and on hand, and short term, highly liquid deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. For the purpose of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and short term deposits are defined as above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts, except where no right of set-off exists.

Real Estate and Equipment

Real estate and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value. Historical cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Corporation and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Once an asset is available for use in the location and condition intended by management, it is depreciated to its residual value using the appropriate depreciation rate set forth by management. Land is not depreciated.

Depreciation is calculated using the declining balance method to depreciate the cost of real estate and equipment to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Land, Yards, Buildings & Improvements -	Buildings	4%
	Leasehold improvements	20%
	Business operating equipment	10%
	Fences and parking lots	8%
Storage Containers -	Storage containers	10%
Vehicles -	Vehicles	30% to 40%
	Truck decks and cranes	20%
Office and Computer Equipment -	Furniture and equipment	20%
	Computer equipment	45%

The residual value and useful lives of real estate and equipment are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each Consolidated Statement of Financial Position date. An asset’s carrying value is written down to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. These impairment losses are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Following the recognition of an impairment loss, the depreciation charge applicable to the asset is adjusted prospectively in order to systematically allocate the revised carrying amount, net of any residual value, over the remaining useful life.

Notes: 3

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Note 3 – Continued

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Finite life intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization begins when an asset is available for use and is calculated on a straight-line basis to allocate the cost of assets over their estimated useful lives as follows: Tenant Relationships - 22 to 180 months, Website - 3 years, Trademarks - 10 years.

Indefinite life intangible assets, consisting of management contracts, are carried at cost and are not amortized. The useful lives of indefinite life intangible assets are reviewed at each Consolidated Statements of Financial Position date.

Goodwill and indefinite life intangibles are reviewed for impairment annually by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU to which they relate. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal, and value in use. When the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. Any impairment is recognized immediately in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Any impairment recognized on goodwill is not subsequently reversed.

Income Taxes

Income tax is comprised of current tax and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

Current tax is the tax expected to be payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different taxable entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Stock Based Compensation

The fair value of stock options issued to directors, officers and consultants under the Corporation’s stock option plan is estimated at the date of issue using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and charged to the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and contributed surplus. Each tranche in an award is considered a separate award with its own vesting period and grant date fair value. On the exercise of options, the cash consideration received and the fair value of the option previously credited to contributed surplus are credited to share capital.

The fair value of options issued to advisors in conjunction with financing transactions is estimated at the date of issue using the fair value of the goods and services received first, if determinable, then by the BlackScholes option pricing model, and charged to share capital and contributed surplus over the vesting period. On the exercise of agent options, the cash consideration received and the fair value of the option previously credited to contributed surplus are credited to share capital.

When stock options are cancelled, it is treated as if the stock options had vested on the date of cancellation and any expense not yet recognized for the award is recognized immediately. However, if a new option is substituted for the cancelled option and is designated as a replacement option on the date that it is granted, the cancelled and the new options are treated as if they were a modification of the original option.

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Corporation’s share purchase options. Forfeitures are estimated for each reporting period and adjusted as required to reflect actual forfeitures that have occurred in the period.

Income (Loss) per Share

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding as adjusted for the potential dilution that would occur if outstanding stock options, subordinated debentures, preferred shares or other potentially dilutive financial instruments were exercised or converted to common shares. The weighted average number of diluted shares is calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that the proceeds received from the exercise of all potentially dilutive instruments are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price.

Share Capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are shown in equity as a deduction from the proceeds received.

Segment Reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Corporation that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. All operating segments’ operating results are reviewed regularly by the Corporation’s CEO and or CFO in order to make decisions regarding the allocation of resources to

Notes: 5

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Note 3 – Continued

the segment. Segment results include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

Financial Instruments

a) Financial assets - Pursuant to IFRS 9, the classification of financial assets is based on the Corporation’s assessment of its business model for holding financial assets. The classification categories are as follows:
Financial assets measured at amortized cost: assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows and its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Corporation classifies the following financial assets as measured at amortized cost: cash and short term deposits and accounts receivable.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income: assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets and its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. The Corporation has no financial assets classified in this category.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The Corporation has no financial assets classified in this category.

Financial assets measured at amortized cost are measured at cost using the effective interest method. When assessing impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost, the Corporation applied the simplified approach and has calculated expected credit losses based on lifetime expected credit losses. Under the simplified method the Corporation uses a provision matrix to calculate expected credit losses for accounts receivable which is based on the Corporation’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment. Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amounts of the assets and the loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). When a trade receivable is uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance for expected credit losses.

Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or when the contractual rights to those assets are transferred.

b) Financial liabilities - The classification of financial liabilities is determined by the Corporation at initial recognition. The classification categories are as follows:
Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost: financial liabilities initially measured at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Corporation classifies the following financial liabilities as measured at amortized cost: certain debt facilities and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Note 3 – Continued

Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss: financial liabilities measured at fair value with changes in fair value and interest expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Corporation classifies the following financial liabilities as measured at fair value: certain debt facilities and interest rate swaps.

Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expired.

Hybrid Debentures

When a contract contains an embedded derivative, the economic and risk characteristics of both the embedded derivative and host contract are analyzed to understand whether or not they are closely related and to decide whether the embedded derivative should be accounted for separately from the host contract.

The embedded features in the financial instrument issued by the Corporation are identified at inception. Each feature is evaluated separately and classified either as part of the host liability, as a separate embedded liability or as an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement.

S ignificant Accounting Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and 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 judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year include, but are not necessarily limited to:

Real estate and equipment - The Corporation determines the carrying value of its real estate and equipment based on policies that incorporate estimates, assumptions and judgments relative to the useful lives and residual values of the assets.
Impairment of non-financial assets - Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions in an arm’s length transaction of similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for the disposal of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model. The estimated future cash flows are derived from management estimates, budgets and past performance and do not include activities to which the Corporation is not yet committed or significant future investments that will enhance the asset’s performance in the CGU being tested. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the discounted cash flow model as well as the expected future cash flows and the growth rate used for extrapolation purposes.

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Note 3 – Continued

Purchase price allocations - Estimates are made in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, including the valuation of separately identifiable intangibles acquired as part of a business combination. These estimates may be further based on management’s best assessment of the related inputs used in valuation models, such as future cash flows and discount rates.
Income taxes - Income taxes are subject to measurement uncertainty due to the possibility of changes in tax legislation or changes in the characterization of income sources.
Stock based compensation - Compensation costs accrued for stock based compensation plans are subject to the estimation of the ultimate payout using pricing models such as the Black-Scholes model which is based on significant assumptions such as volatility, dividend yield and expected term.

Management judgments that may affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses include but are not necessarily limited to:

For the purpose of assessing impairment of tangible and intangible assets, assets are grouped at the lowest level of separately identified cash inflows which make up the CGU. Determination of what constitutes a CGU is subject to management’s judgment. Management has identified each location as a separate CGU. The asset composition of the CGU can directly impact the recoverability of the assets included within the CGU.
The determination of which entities require consolidation is subject to management’s judgment regarding levels of control, assumptions of risk and other factors that may ultimately include or exclude an entity from the classification of a subsidiary or other entity requiring consolidation.
For the purpose of recording asset acquisitions, management must exercise judgment to determine if the acquisition meets the definition of a business. Such determinations may affect the recorded amounts of specific assets and liabilities, goodwill and/or transaction costs.
Management has applied judgment in assessing that the management contracts acquired have an indefinite useful life because the Corporation purchased a complete system to operationally manage its own business and that of other self storage businesses. The Corporation has acquired substantial know-how and expertise in managing stores owned by third parties, including long term relationships, of which the Corporation will have the benefit for an indefinite period of time. The management contracts have therefore been deemed to have an indefinite useful life.

At December 31, 2020, the Corporation performed its annual impairment test on goodwill and its indefinite life intangible assets. Goodwill is allocated to the group of CGU’s that benefited from the synergies of the business combination on which the goodwill arose. The Corporation used the fair value less costs of disposal method to determine the recoverable amount of the CGU’s. Based on the impairment test performed, the Corporation concluded that no impairment exists on its goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets.

Information regarding each impairment test is as follows:

Manitoba and Saskatchewan group of CGU’s

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates based on the expected life of the properties, with a net operating income growth rate of 2% which is consistent with management’s knowledge of the local market and is lower than the CGU’s recent historical growth rate.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 5.98% based on management’s judgement in this geographic region.

Note 6 – Continued

Kamloops, BC group of CGU’s

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates based on the expected life of the properties, with a net operating income growth rate of 4%. The Corporation has seven stores in the region and is able to distribute costs and operate more efficiently.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 6.78% based on management’s experience in this geographic region and the fact that the properties are on leased land.

London, ON group of CGU’s

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates based on the expected life of the property, with an average net operating income growth rate of 2% which is consistent with management’s knowledge of the local market.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 5.98% based on management’s experience in this geographic region.

Sentinel Self-Storage group of CGU’s

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates based on the expected life of the properties, with a net operating income growth rate of 3.75%. Given the location of the stores in this portfolio, over 20 stores in major markets and highly desirable locations in Canada, management believes that this growth rate is sustainable, and is consistent with the CGU’s historical growth rate.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 4.75% based on management’s experience and the superior quality and location of these properties.

Portable Storage group of CGU’s

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates based on the expected life of storage containers, with a net operating income growth rate of 7% based on management’s experience and the exclusive marketing channels the Corporation has for this product type.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 6.64% based on management’s experience in these markets.

Real Storage group of CGU’s

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates based on the expected life of the properties, with a net operating income growth rate of 5% during the first three years and 4% thereafter.
Given the location of the stores in this portfolio and with the Corporation already operating in many of the 27 markets in which these stores are located, management believes that this growth rate is sustainable.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 4.94% based on management’s experience and location of these properties.

Management Division CGU

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates for five years with a terminal growth rate of 4%, which management feels would be representative of the future indefinite cash flows from this asset.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 20% based on what management deemed appropriate for the nature of this type of revenue stream.

RecordXpress Division CGU

The cash flow projection includes specific estimates for five years with a growth rate of 4%, which management feels would be representative of the future cash flows from these assets.
Cash flows were discounted at a pre-tax rate of 6.9% based on management’s experience in the records management business.

The most sensitive inputs to the value in use model used for these groups of CGU’s are the growth rate and the discount rate:

A 1% increase or decrease in the growth rate would not result in an impairment of these groups of CGU’s.
A 1% increase or decrease in the discount rate would not result in an impairment of these groups of CGU’s.

Note 7 – Continued

Mortgages are secured by a first mortgage charge on the real estate and equipment of the Corporation, general security agreements covering all assets of the Corporation, general assignment of rents and leases and assignments of insurance coverage over all assets of the Corporation. The Corporation must maintain certain financial ratios to comply with the facilities. These covenants include debt service coverage ratios, a fixed charge coverage ratio, a tangible net worth ratio, and a loan to value ratio. As of December 31, 2020, the Corporation is in compliance with all covenants.

The deferred financing costs consist of fees and costs incurred to obtain the related mortgage financing, less accumulated amortization.

Principal repayments on mortgages and lines of credit in each of the next five years are estimated as follows:

Year 1	$	465,985,377 (includes lines of credit of $361.4 million)
Year 2	$	191,270,632
Year 3	$	58,520,159
Year 4	$	111,172,658
Year 5	$	23,523,953
Thereafter	$	333,083,646

The Corporation entered into interest rate swap contracts in order to fix the interest rate on $726 million of debt at a weighted average rate of 3.94%. The swaps mature between April 2022 and December 2030.

8. Hybrid Debentures

On July 20, 2020, $75 million of unsecured senior hybrid debentures were issued at a price of $1,000 per debenture with a term of sixty-six months, due January 31, 2026. These debentures bear a fixed interest rate of 5.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on January 31 and July 31 of each year, commencing January 31, 2021.

On and after January 31, 2024 and prior to January 31, 2025, the debentures will be redeemable in whole or in part from time to time at the Corporation’s option at a redemption price equal to 102.875% of the principal amount of the debentures redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the date set for redemption. On and after January 31, 2025 and prior to the maturity date, the debentures will be redeemable, in whole or in part, from time to time at the Corporation’s option at par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to but excluding the date set for redemption.

On redemption or at maturity on January 31, 2026, the Corporation may elect to, in whole or part, convert the debentures into freely tradable common shares. In such event, payment will be satisfied by delivering for each $1,000 due, that number of freely tradable shares obtained by dividing $1,000 by 95% of the current

market price on the date fixed for redemption or maturity, as the case may be. Any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid in cash.

Each embedded feature was evaluated separately and it was determined that the economic and risk characteristics are closely related to the host contract and therefore were not accounted for as separate financial instruments. The debentures were recorded at a fair value of $75 million net of deferred financing costs of $3.2 million.

The debentures are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method over the life of the debenture. The balance of the hybrid debentures is:

10. Financial Risk Management and Fair Value

The Corporation is required to disclose certain information concerning its financial instruments. The fair values of the Corporation’s cash and short term deposits, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amount due to the relatively short periods to maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of the Corporation’s debt obligations is estimated based on discounted future cash flows using discount rates that reflect current market conditions for instruments with similar terms and risks. Such fair value estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Corporation might pay or receive in actual market transactions.

IFRS establishes a three tier fair value hierarchy to reflect the significance of the inputs used in measuring the fair value of the Corporation’s financial instruments. The three levels are:

Level 1 – This level includes assets and liabilities measured at fair market value based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets that the Corporation can access on the measurement date.

Level 2 – This level includes measurements based on directly or indirectly observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Financial instruments in this category are measured using valuation models or other standard valuation techniques that rely on observable market inputs.

Notes: 20

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Note 10 – Continued

Level 3 – The measurements used in this level rest on inputs that are unobservable, unavailable, or whose observable inputs do not justify the largest part of the fair value instrument.

The fair value of financial liabilities was as follows:

Financial Liabilities: Debt - at amortized cost Debt - at FVTPL Interest rate swaps	Fair Value Carrying Fair Hierarchy Amount Value Level 2 453,565,664 474,372,525 Level 2 674,505,311 674,505,311 Level 2 51,668,157 51,668,157 As at December 31, 2020		As at December 31,2019
		Carrying Fair Amount Value 443,830,101 443,830,101 599,958,291 599,958,291 9,291,210 9,291,210

Financial instruments may expose the Corporation to a number of financial risks including interest rate risk, credit risk and environmental risk.

a) Interest rate risk – Interest rate risk arises from changes in market interest rates that may affect the fair value of future cash flows from the Corporation’s financial assets or liabilities. Interest rate risk may be partially mitigated by holding both fixed and floating rate debt, or by staggering the maturities of fixed rate debt. The Corporation is exposed to interest rate risk primarily relating to its long term debt. The Corporation will manage interest rate risk by utilizing fixed interest rates on its mortgages where possible, entering into interest rate swap contracts, staggering maturities over a number of years to mitigate exposure to any single year, and by attempting to ensure access to diverse sources of funding.

There is interest rate risk associated with variable rate mortgages and lines of credit as interest expense is impacted by changes in the prime rate. The impact on the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) if interest rates on variable rate debt had been 1% higher or lower for the year ended December 31, 2020 would have been approximately $747,821 (December 31, 2019 - $1,369,745).

b) Credit risk – Credit risk arises from the possibility that customers may experience financial difficulty and be unable to fulfill their financial obligations to the Corporation. The risk of incurring bad debts often arises if storage customers relocate and cannot be found to enforce payment, or if storage customers abandon their possessions. The extent of bad debts can be mitigated by quickly following up on any unpaid amounts shortly after the due date, enforcing late fees, denying access to any customers with delinquent accounts, and ultimately seizing the possessions of the customer. Additionally, the Corporation typically rents to numerous customers, each of which constitutes significantly less than 5% of the Corporation’s monthly revenue. This diversification in the customer base reduces credit risk from any given tenant.

The Corporation has approximately $350,000 of receivables from related parties at December 31, 2020. Management believes there is low credit risk associated with these related party balances due to the nature of the relationships and the historical loss rates.

Notes: 21

StorageVault Canada Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

Note 10 – Continued

Change in the Corporation’s allowance for expected credit losses is as follows:

Balance December 31, 2018 Charges or adjustments during the year Balance December 31, 2019 Charges or adjustments during the year Balance December 31, 2020	$250,658 98,968
	349,626 63,865
	$413,491

The creation and release of the allowance for expected credit losses has been included in operating costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Amounts charged to the allowance account are generally written off when there is no expectation of recovering additional cash.

c) Liquidity risk – Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Corporation manages liquidity risk through cash flow forecasting and regular monitoring of cash requirements including anticipated investing and financing activities. Typically, the Corporation ensures that it has sufficient cash or liquid investments available to meet expected operating expenses for a period of 30 days, excluding the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters. For the foreseeable future, the Corporation anticipates that cash flows from operations, working capital, and other sources of financing will be sufficient to meet its operating requirements, debt repayment obligations and will provide sufficient funding for anticipated capital expenditures. It is the Corporation’s intention to renew any debt coming due in the next fiscal year. The maturities of long term financial liabilities are summarized in Note 7.
d) Environmental risk – Environmental risk is inherent in the ownership of property. Various municipal, provincial and federal regulations can result in penalties or potential liability for remediation should hazardous materials enter the environment. The presence of hazardous substances could also impair the Corporation’s ability to finance or sell the property, or it may expose the Corporation to civil lawsuits. To mitigate such risk, the Corporation will procure recent or updated environmental reports for all acquisitions. It also prohibits the storage of hazardous substances as a condition of the rental contract signed by customers.

Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Corporation is not exposed to significant currency risk.

13. Capital Risk Management

The Corporation’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Corporation defines capital as shareholders’ equity excluding contributed surplus, and long term debt. The Corporation 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 Corporation may attempt to issue new shares, issue new debt, acquire or dispose of assets, and adjust the amount of cash and short term deposits. The Board of Directors does not establish a quantitative return on capital criteria, but rather promotes year over year sustainable growth.

The Corporation reviews and assesses its capital structure on an ongoing basis. The Corporation determines the appropriate mortgage debt to be placed on properties at the time a particular property is acquired or when an existing mortgage financing matures. Consideration is given to various factors including, but not limited to: interest rates, financing costs, the term of the mortgage and the strength of cash flow arising from the underlying asset. Mortgage debt is usually only secured by the underlying asset. The Corporation monitors its capital using a debt to fair value ratio.

Except for the debt covenants described in Note 7, the Corporation is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

Lease Liabilities

The Corporation leases buildings and land in Kamloops, BC, Montreal, QC, Sudbury, ON, Toronto, ON, Kitchener, ON and Winnipeg, MB. The leases expire between 2023 and 2054, with the leases expiring in 2023 and 2027 having up to 15 years and 20 years of renewals, respectively, which are expected to be exercised by the Corporation.

The lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the balance sheet date. Lease payments are apportioned between interest expense and a reduction of the lease liability using the Corporation’s incremental borrowing rate to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balances of the liability.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Corporation recognized $1,418,221 (December 31, 2019 - $1,019,236) in interest expense related to its lease liabilities.

A reconciliation of the lease liabilities from the date of adoption of IFRS 16 to December 31, 2020 is as follows:

Balance, December 31, 2019 Additions Cash Payments Interest Balance, December 31, 2020	Self Storage Properties	Self Storage Properties
		25,491,060 $ 19,695,524 (2,569,755) 1,418,221 44,035,050 $

17. COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic related to COVID-19. As a result, and for the future benefit of the Corporation, we modified our operating platform to continue to meet the strong demand for our services. These changes included improving our virtual systems to offer a no-contact rental process, installation of plexiglass partitions and limiting the number of customers in our offices to one at a time. Our teams are fully employed and customers are able to safely store and access their valuables. We continue to be extremely proud of our team for continuing to adapt to new processes and for being committed to providing exceptional customer and community service.

As fiscal 2020 progressed, we experienced a significant increase in leads and rentals which has resulted in higher occupancies and rental rates across the portfolio. These positive trends resulted in the Corporation achieving strong revenue growth. While customers may be further impacted, including through unemployment, the Corporation has experienced no meaningful increases in accounts receivable.

Since the start of COVID-19, the Corporation continued to execute on our strategies to attract customers through search engine marketing, improving our online presence, virtual community connection programs and the development of a national platform and initiatives to fulfill last mile storage needs. These efforts have allowed us to attract customers who are leveraging our national footprint to offer a complete storage, inventory management and mobilization solution through our self and portable storage and records management infrastructures.
