Independent Auditor's Report

MNP

To the Shareholders of Unisync Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Unisync Corp. and its subsidiaries (the "Group"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, and the consolidated statements of loss, comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, 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 Group 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.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Impairment Analysis of Goodwill

Key Audit Matter Description

We draw attention to Note 2(I) and 10 to consolidated financial statements. The Group has recorded goodwill of $6,384,797 as of September 30, 2024. An impairment is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset, or its cash generating unit ("CGU"), exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. In determining the estimated recoverable amounts using a discounted cash flow model, the Group's significant assumptions include future cash flows based on expected revenues from contracts, long-term growth rates, estimated costs of production and the discount rate. We considered this a key audit matter due to the significant judgment made by management in estimating the recoverable amounts for goodwill and a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to management's estimates. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of internal valuation specialists.

Audit Response

We responded to this matter by performing procedures in relation to Impairment Analysis of Goodwill. Our audit work in relation to this included, but was not restricted to, the following:

  • Tested management's key assumptions, including a 'retrospective review' to compare management's assumptions in prior year expected future cash flows to the actual results to assess the Group's budgeting process.
  • Evaluated the reasonableness of key assumptions in the impairment model, including future cash flows based on expected revenues from contracts, long-term growth rates, estimated costs of production and the discount rate.
  • Verified the mathematical accuracy of management's impairment model and supporting calculations.
  • With the assistance of internal valuation specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the Group's impairment model, which included:
  • Evaluating the reasonableness of the discount rates by comparing the Group's weighted average cost of capital against publicly available market data; and
  • Developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount rate selected by management.
  • Assessed the appropriateness of aggregating CGUs for impairment testing and the disclosures relating to the assumptions used in the impairment analysis of goodwill in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Recognition of Deferred Tax Asset

Key Audit Matter Description

We draw attention to Notes 2(f) and 16 to the consolidated financial statements. The Group has recorded a deferred tax asset of $7,761,117 as of September 30, 2024. Management has estimated the income tax provision and deferred income tax balances in accordance with its interpretation of the various income tax laws and regulations and has estimated the recoverability of deferred tax balances. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from tax loss carryforwards, require management to assess the likelihood that the Group will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize tax losses recognized as deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on managements' estimates of future cash flows.

We considered this a key audit matter due to the significant judgment made by management in estimating the recoverability of the deferred tax asset, inherent complexity in estimating income taxes and deferred income tax balances and a high degree of auditor judgment. This resulted in an increased extent of audit effort, including the involvement of internal tax specialists.

Audit Response

We responded to this matter by performing procedures in relation to Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets. Our audit work in relation to this included, but was not restricted to, the following:

  • Evaluated future taxable income by:
  • Evaluating the Group's ability to accurately estimate future taxable income by comparing actual results to the Group's historical estimates;
  • Assessing the reasonability of estimates of future taxable income by evaluating key inputs to the estimates such as expected revenues from the contracts, long-term growth rates, expected operating results excluding reversals of existing taxable and deductible temporary differences; and
  • Evaluating whether the estimates of future taxable income were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

MNP


  • With the assistance of internal income tax specialists, assessed the probability that the deferred income tax assets will be realized by:
  • Assessing the existing temporary differences available for future utilization to evaluate deferred income tax assets available to the Group;
  • Assessing the carry forward period and sufficiency over which the Group expects to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income before they expire; and
  • Evaluating whether the taxable income in historical periods was of the appropriate character and available under the tax law.

  • Assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures relating to the assumptions used in the recognition of deferred tax assets in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises Management's Discussion and Analysis.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do 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 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.

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 Group'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 Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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 Group'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 Group'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 Group 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.
  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Abhishek Kapoor.

Unisync Corp.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

1. Nature of business and basis of presentation

Unisync Corp. (the "Company") is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia. Its head office, principal address, and registered and records office are located at Suite 1328, 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Unisync Corp.'s voting Common Shares are listed and posted for trading on the TSX Exchange under the symbol "UNI" and on the OTC under the symbol "USYNF".

The Company operates in two main business segments. The Peerless segment includes the Company's 91.67% interest in the business of Winnipeg-based Peerless Garments LP ("Peerless") and 100% of Peerless Garments Inc. ("GP"), the general partner. Peerless manufactures harsh weather outerwear for the Canadian military and other government agencies.

The Unisync Group Limited ("UGL") segment comprises the operations of Unisync Group Limited of Mississauga, Ontario, and Unisync (Nevada) LLC of Henderson, Nevada. During the year ended September 30, 2023, Utility Garments Inc. ("Utility") of Saint-Laurent, Quebec was amalgamated with Unisync Group Limited to continue as Unisync Group Limited. This segment is involved in the design, manufacture and distribution of direct sale uniforms, workwear, image apparel and related solutions. The UGL segment operates distribution centres in Guelph, Ontario, Vancouver, British Columbia and Henderson, Nevada.

These consolidated financial statements including comparatives have been prepared in accordance with accounting policies in full compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") effective on October 1, 2023.

The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company's Board of Directors and authorized for issue on December 12, 2024.

2. Material accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented.

(a) Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis except for the following items in the consolidated statements of financial position:

  • inventories which are carried at the net realizable value.
  • share-based payment arrangements which are measured at fair value at grant date pursuant to IFRS2, Share-based payment.

(b) Principles of consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. Control exists when the Company has the existing rights that give it the current ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the entities' returns. The Company reassesses control on an ongoing basis. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Company obtains control until the date that such control ceases.

The accompanying notes form an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2024


Unisync Corp.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

2. Material accounting policies (continued)

The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared with the same reporting period of the Company. All significant inter-company balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from inter-company transactions, have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Minority partner

The minority partner holds a 8.33% interest in Peerless. The due to minority partner amount presented as a component of liabilities is as a result of a put/call agreement between the Company and the minority partner as described in Note 14. The deficit attributable to minority partner amount recognized in equity represents the minority partner’s share of Peerless’ net loss and comprehensive loss lists distributions to the minority partner.

(c) Foreign currency

Functional and presentation currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the functional currency of all the consolidated entities with the exception of Unisync (Nevada) LLC which has a functional currency of United States dollars (“USD”).

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains or losses resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss.

Foreign operation

The results and financial position of the Company’s foreign operation in the United States are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

(i) Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the consolidated statements of financial position.

(ii) Income and expenses for the consolidated statements of loss and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss are translated at average exchange rates.

(iii) All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.

(d) Revenue recognition

The Company’s contracts with the Federal Government of Canada are in the form of unit price contracts. Unit prices are agreed upon for each identifiable unit of work to be performed. Revenue is recognized based on the quantity of each unit of work performed, when the goods are received by the Government, when control has been transferred to the government, the selling price is fixed or determinable and when collection is reasonably assured.

In contracts or purchase orders where the transfer of title is stipulated, revenue is recognized at that time when control of ownership has been transferred to the buyer, the selling price is fixed or determinable and when collection is reasonably assured. In contracts or purchase orders where the transfer of title is not stipulated, revenue is recognized when the goods are shipped, providing all control of ownership has been transferred to the buyer, the selling price is fixed or determinable and when collection is reasonably assured.

2. Material accounting policies (continued)

(e) Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue relates to payments received on account of services to be rendered in the future or deposits on products to be delivered.

(f) Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred income tax expense. Income taxes are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss except to the extent it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case the related tax is recognized in equity.

Current tax expense is based on the results for the period as adjusted for items that are not taxable or not deductible, and adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years. Current tax is calculated using tax rates and laws that were substantively enacted at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position.

Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures except where the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is probable that the difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax is accounted for using a temporary difference approach and is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax is calculated based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates that are expected to apply to the year of realization or settlement based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position.

Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each consolidated statement of financial position date and deferred tax assets are derecognized to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences except where the deferred tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

(g) Cash

Cash comprises cash on hand, in the bank and demand deposits with an original maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less.

(h) Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods. These amounts are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Costs are assigned to inventory quantities on hand at the consolidated statement of financial position date using the first in, first out cost in the Peerless segment and on a weighted average cost basis in the UGL segment. Cost comprises material, labour and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of the business less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated cost necessary to make the sale.

2. Material accounting policies (continued)

(i) Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of property, plant and equipment, including labour and interest, are also capitalized as part of the cost.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to the consolidated statement of loss during the financial period in which they are incurred. Upon retirement, disposal or destruction of an asset, the cost and related depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statement of loss.

Depreciation

Depreciation is based on estimated useful lives of the assets and is provided for using the following annual rates and methods:

Buildings 5% declining balance
Warehouse and manufacturing equipment 20% declining balance
Computer equipment 20% straight line
Office furnishings and equipment 20% declining balance
Vehicles 30% declining balance
Leasehold improvements 20% straight line

The Company allocates the amount initially recognized in respect of an item of property, plant and equipment to its significant components and depreciates separately each such component.

The assets' residual values, method of depreciation and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, at least annually.

Gains or losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount. These are included in the consolidated statement of loss.

Impairment

Property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use.

Impairments to property, plant and equipment are reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment had been recognized.

(j) Intangible assets

Identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination acquisition are recorded at fair value, otherwise they are recorded at cost. The carrying values of all intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment is determined by comparing the recoverable amount of such assets with their carrying amounts. The Company evaluates impairment losses for potential reversals when events or changes in circumstances warrant such consideration.

Intangible assets with definite useful lives consist of the acquisition cost of customer relationships and computer software. Amortization is provided for on a straight-line basis over 8 – 10 years for customer relationships, over 5 - 7 years for computer software and over 5 years for standards certification, which is the estimated useful life of the assets.

2. Material accounting policies (continued)

(k) Leases

A right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability are recognized at the date a leased asset is available for use by the Company. The right-of-use asset is initially measured based on the initial amount of the lease liability. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used to calculate present value. The lease term determined by the Company is comprised of the non-cancellable period of the lease contract, as well as options to terminate or extend the lease term if the exercise of either option is reasonably certain.

Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at cost less depreciation on a straight-line basis and reduced to reflect impairment losses (if any) and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability. If a remeasurement to the lease liability is deemed necessary, a corresponding adjustment is also made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.

The Company has elected to apply the recognition exemption for leases of low-value assets and therefore has not recognized right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for low value leases of IT equipment. Low value leases are leases where the underlying asset has a new value of $5,000 or less. The Company recognizes the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on either a straight-line basis over the lease term or another systematic basis if that basis is more representative of the pattern of the lessee's benefit.

(l) Goodwill

Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as determined at the date of acquisition of the business less any impairment losses. For the purposes of impairment testing, the goodwill is allocated to the cash-generating unit ("CGU") that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indicator of impairment. If the recoverable amount of the CGU, which is the greater of the value-in-use and the fair value less costs of disposal, is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU on a pro rata basis based on the carrying value of the assets in the CGU. Any impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods. On disposal of a CGU, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the gain or loss on disposal.

Goodwill arose on the acquisitions of Peerless Garments LP in 2010, the acquisitions of Carleton and Omega in 2015 and the acquisition of Utility in 2018. The Peerless Garments LP business is recognized as a CGU for impairment testing since it is a uniform manufacturing business operated under local management with separate information systems. The Carleton, Omega and Utility businesses are uniform distribution businesses that have similar economic and qualitative characteristics and have been integrated with the business of Unisync Group Limited to be aggregated as one CGU for impairment testing for the year ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

(m) Provisions

Provisions for restructuring costs and legal claims, where applicable, are recognized when the Company has a legal or constructive obligation to make a future outflow of economic benefits to others as a result of past transactions or past events, it is probable that a future outflow of economic benefits will be required, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are measured at the present value of management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the statement of financial position date using a discounted cash flow methodology. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

2. Material accounting policies (continued)

(n) Share-based payment

The fair value of options granted under the stock option plan is recognized as compensation expense with a corresponding increase in share-based payment reserve within the Company's equity. The fair value is measured at the grant date and recognized over the period during which the options vest. Each tranche in an award is considered as a separate award with its own vesting period and grant date fair value.

The fair value at the grant date is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the vesting and performance criteria, the share price at the grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated annually based on historical forfeiture rates and expectations of future forfeiture rates.

(o) Share capital

Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity.

(p) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss attributable to equity holders of the Company, excluding any costs to service equity other than common shares, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of common share equivalents, such as outstanding stock options and warrants, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period, if dilutive. For this purpose, the number of additional shares is calculated using the assumed proceeds upon the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants that are used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period.

(q) Financial instruments

Financial assets are classified into three measurement categories on initial recognition: (i) measured at amortized cost; (ii) measured at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"); and (iii) measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"). The classification of financial assets is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics. Derivatives embedded in contracts where the host is a financial asset in the scope of the standard are never separated and instead, the financial instrument as a whole is assessed for classification.

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

(i) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and
(ii) its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL:

(i) it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and

2. Material accounting policies (continued)

(ii) its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL.

All fair value changes on liabilities designated under the fair value option are generally presented as follows: (i) the amount that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of the liabilities is presented in other comprehensive income ("OCI") and (ii) the remaining amount of change in the fair value is presented in the consolidated statement of loss. All other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The Company currently classifies trade payables and accrued liabilities, operating and mortgage loans, and amount due to minority partner as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost. Cash, note receivable and trade and other receivables are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost.

Impairment of financial assets

An expected credit loss ("ECL") model is used for calculating impairment of financial assets. An ECL is recognized when financial instruments are initially recognized and the amount of ECL recognized is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in the credit risk of the financial instruments.

Financial assets carried at amortized cost are assessed at each reporting date on whether they are credit impaired. A financial asset is 'credit-impaired' when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred. The Company applies expected credit loss approach in determining provisions for financial assets carried at amortized cost. The approach that the Company has taken for trade and other receivables is a provision matrix approach whereby expected credit losses are recognized based on aging characterization, credit worthiness and credit insurance coverage of the customer. Specific provisions may be used where there is information that a specific customer's expected credit risk has increased. The specific accounts are only written off once all collection avenues have been explored or when legal bankruptcy has occurred. When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Company's historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information. The credit risk on a financial asset is considered to have increased significantly if it is uninsured and if it is more than 90 days past due. Loss provisions for financial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets and expensed in the consolidated statement of loss. Trade accounts receivable are presented net of provisions for doubtful accounts.

3. Changes in accounting standards

The following amendments to accounting standards became effective for annual periods beginning on October 1, 2023. The adoption of these revised standards by the Company did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

IAS 8 Accounting Policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors contains a narrow scope of amendments to improve accounting policy disclosures and to distinguish changes in accounting estimates from changes in accounting policies.

IAS 12 Income taxes was amended by IASB to require companies to recognize deferred tax on transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences.

The accompanying notes form an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

4. Accounting standards issued but not yet applied

The following amendments to standards have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and are applicable to the Company for its annual periods beginning on and after October 1, 2024:

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial

Amendments to IAS 1 issued in October 2022, clarify that covenants of loan arrangements which an entity must comply with only after the reporting date would not affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current at the reporting date. Conversely, covenants that an entity is required to comply with on or before the reporting date would affect the classification as current or noncurrent, even if the covenant is only assessed after the entity's reporting date. The amendment introduces additional disclosure requirements when noncurrent liabilities from loan arrangements are subject to future covenants, in which the additional information disclosed will assist in understanding the risk that those noncurrent liabilities could become repayable within twelve months after the reporting date. The additional disclosures include: the carrying amount of the liability, information about the covenants, and facts and circumstances, if any that indicate the entity may have difficulty complying with the covenants.

IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial instruments

Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 issued in May 2023, introduces new disclosure requirements to enhance transparency and the usefulness of the information provided by entities about supplier finance arrangements on their liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk.

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024 and are required to be applied prospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of these amendments on its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to apply the amendments for its consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2025.

5. Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the accounting policies. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results.

The significant estimates and assumptions that have a risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

Going Concern

The determination if the Company has the ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to achieve profitable operations. There is an assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation. Certain judgments are made by management when determining if and when the Company will return to profitable operations.

While its revenues have grown since its 2018 fiscal year, and retracted in the current fiscal year, the Company has incurred losses because of the costs associated with the consolidation and restructuring of its acquisitions in Canada, the pursuit of Canadian government contracts, entry into the US market and the implementation of a new ERP system. In addition, in the fiscal years from 2020 to 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the Company's customers in the hospitality and travel sectors. Following the pandemic, the Company has absorbed the inflationary effect of higher product, labour and borrowing costs as customer contract pricing adjustments lag these cost increases. The Company believes that, based on its forecasts and

The accompanying notes form an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

5. Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

its initiatives to adjust customer pricing, resource offshore production to lower cost locations and its initiatives to reduce expenditures, it will be able to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.

Impact of Rising Interest Rates

The impact of rising interest rates and economic uncertainty can be far reaching and difficult to predict and may potentially impact the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Interest rates can affect many areas within the consolidated financial statements, including accounting estimates, concentration risks, impairment assessments, borrowing costs, debt covenants, and more.

The Company's operating loans with variable rates of interest may be faced with higher repayments because of increased interest rates and may be unable to meet immediate future repayments. The Company's fixed rate mortgage loans may be subject to higher interest rates at the expiry of the current fixed rate periods on the facilities, meaning higher repayments in the future. Although a significant portion of the Company's accounts receivables are insured and/or with government entities, rising interest rates may also result in expectations of increased credit losses.

These risks have been considered when forecasting future cash flows. The Company has taken steps to improve its cash flows through the sale of its non-core New Jersey division, the restructuring of its Canadian distribution and sewing operations, right sizing the organization, the resourcing of offshore production to lower cost locations and the negotiation of customer contract pricing to respond to the inflationary post pandemic and higher interest rate environment.

Trade and other receivables

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reflect an impairment risk for trade accounts receivable based on an expected credit loss model which factors in changes in credit quality since the initial recognition of trade accounts receivable based on customer risk types (insured and non-receivables, government receivables). Expected credit losses are also provided for based on collection history and specific risks identified on a customer-by-customer basis.

Inventory

The Company determines the carrying value of work in progress inventory ("WIP") and estimated net realizable value at the end of each reporting period. Management allocates costs, such as for materials, labour attributable to goods in production and an allocation of overhead, to WIP based on management's estimate of the percentage completion of the goods, and the nature of the costs for producing that particular good. Estimates are required in relation to forecasted sales volumes and finished good inventory balances. In situations where excess or slow moving inventory balances are identified, the

Company assesses its ability to recover customer payment for such inventory and estimates of net realizable values for the excess or slow moving volumes are made.

Share-based payment

The Company provides incentives via share-based payment entitlements (Note 15). The fair value of entitlements is determined in accordance with the accounting policy in Note 2(n). If certain assumptions used in the fair value calculation were to change, there would be an impact on the share-based payment expense recognized in the current period.

Income taxes

The Company is subject to income taxes in Canada and the United States. Management has estimated the income tax provision and deferred income tax balances in accordance with its interpretation of the various income tax laws and regulations and has estimated the recoverability of deferred tax balances. It is possible, due to complexity inherent in estimating income taxes that the tax provision and deferred

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

5. Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

income tax balances could change. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from tax loss carry-forwards, require management to assess the likelihood that the Company will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize tax losses recognized as deferred tax assets.

Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on managements' estimates of future cash flows. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize or recognize net deferred tax assets, if any, at the reporting date could be impacted.

Impairment of long lived assets

The Company considers both internal and external sources of information in assessing its tangible and intangible assets for indicators of impairment when events or circumstances indicate such. The Company determines the recoverable amount, which is the greater of its value-in-use and its fair value less costs of disposal, using discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the tangible and intangible asset, and the appropriate discount rate. During the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company's tangible and intangible assets were determined to not be impaired.

Impairment of goodwill

The Company performs an assessment of its goodwill for impairment on an annual basis. The Company determines the recoverable amount, which is the greater of its value-in-use and its fair value less costs of disposal, using discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the Company's operations, and the appropriate discount rate. The projected cash flows are significantly affected by changes in assumptions about expected revenues from contracts, estimated costs of production, and the discount rate. During the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company's goodwill was determined to not be impaired (Note 10)

For the year ended September 30, 2024 and the year ended September 30, 2023, the Company assessed the goodwill of each CGU for impairment based on its value-in-use. To determine value-in-use, the Company used the 2025 budget plan and 2026, 2027 and 2028 forecasts as approved by the Board of Directors for each of the CGUs and then prepared forecasts for the year ended 2029 using an estimated long term revenue and variable cost growth rate of 3% (September 30, 2023 – 3%). The Company's valuation model also takes account of working capital and capital investments to maintain the condition of the assets of each CGU. The resulting forecasted cash flows were discounted using after tax rates of 13% to 14%. Based on this assessment, the carrying amount of goodwill attributed to each CGU was not impaired at September 30, 2024.

24. Financial Instruments

Financial instruments and risk management

The Company's activities result in exposure to a variety of financial risks, including risks relating to interest rates, credit and liquidity. Details of these risks, how they arise, and the objectives and policies for managing them are described as follows:

(a) Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk as its operating loan credit facilities bear interest at variable rates. The Company has not used derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to this interest rate risk. A 1% change in the variable interest rate would have resulted in a $248,000 (2023 - $267,000) change to current year interest expense.

(b) Credit risk

The Company's principal financial assets subject to credit risk are cash, trade and other receivables and the promissory note described in note 19. The carrying amounts of these financial assets on the consolidated statement of financial position represent the Company's maximum credit exposure at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position.

The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables. As of September 30, 2024, 5.2% (2023 - 3.6%) of trade receivables were from the Government of Canada and 59.2% (2023 - 39.4%) of trade receivables were from companies that the Company has had insured for loss with an AA- rated credit insurance company. Under the Company's $5,000,000 credit insurance policy, 90% of receivables losses greater than $2,000 and in excess of a $7,500 aggregate deductible are insured at 90% of the loss amount. The amounts disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position are net of a loss provision for doubtful accounts, estimated by the management of the Company based on previous experience and its assessment of the current economic environment. The Company reviews these amounts regularly to ensure credit limits are not exceeded. The credit risk on cash is limited because the counterparties are chartered banks with high credit ratings assigned by national credit rating agencies.

Aging of trade and other receivables is as follows:

September 30, 2024 September 30, 2023
Not past due $ 9,468,167 $ 11,473,103
Past due 1-30 days 1,713,247 1,362,757

(d) Currency risk

The Company may undertake sales and purchase transactions in foreign currencies, and therefore is subject to gains or losses due to foreign currency fluctuations. The consolidated statement of financial position includes the following amounts expressed in Canadian dollars with respect to financial assets and liabilities for which cash flows are denominated in United States dollars.

September 30, 2024 September 30, 2023
Trade and other receivables $ 3,701,947 $ 3,080,723
Operating loan 20,222,354 13,389,267
Trade payables and accrued liabilities 12,598,212 337,369
Deferred revenue 8,718,714 13,449,163

A 1% depreciation or appreciation in the Canadian dollar against the United States dollar on the above amounts, assuming all other variables remained the same, would have resulted in an increase or decrease in foreign exchange gain (loss) of $192,710 (2023 - $56,469) recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and a cumulative translation adjustment of $185,664 (2023 - $184,482) in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

24. Financial Instruments (continued)

(e) Fair value

The Company classifies its financial instruments measured at fair value at one of three levels according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair value in the fair value hierarchy.

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.

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

In evaluating fair value information, considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop the estimates. The use of different market assumptions and different valuation techniques may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value presented herein may not be indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange.

The following tables present the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, including their levels within the fair value hierarchy. Fair value information for financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value is not presented if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value. The fair value of Level 2 and Level 3 items listed in the table below is based on the present value of contractual cash flows, discounted at the Company's current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements or, where applicable, market rates.

25. Capital Management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to:

(a) maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the cost of capital at acceptable risk; and
(b) maintain capital in a manner which balances the interests of equity and debt holders.

In the management of capital, the Company includes equity and long-term debt (including due to minority partner) in the definition of capital.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments due to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may adjust the amount of dividends paid to the shareholders, issue new shares or issue new debt.

Capital management objectives, policies and procedures are unchanged since the preceding year.

Under the terms of its operating loan agreement (Note 11 (a)), the Company must satisfy certain restrictive covenants as to minimum financial ratios as follows:

(i) The ratio of debt to tangible net assets must not be greater than 3:1.
(ii) The ratio of current assets to current liabilities must be greater than 1.25:1.
(iii) The debt service coverage ratio of cash flow from operations to debt obligations must be greater than 1.25:1.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with covenant (i) and expected to receive a forbearance from the bank for its default of covenants (ii) and (iii) for the year ended September 30, 2024. As at September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with covenants (i) and had received a forbearance from the bank for its default of covenant (ii) and (iii) for the year ended September 30, 2023.

Under the terms of its mortgage loan agreement (Note 11 (b)), the Company must satisfy the following restrictive covenant as to a minimum financial ratio as follows:

(i) The debt service coverage ratio of cash flow from operations to debt obligations must be greater than 1.10:1.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company expected to receive a forbearance from the BDC for its default of its covenant for the year ended September 30, 2024.

26. Segmented information

The Company has two reportable operating segments, Peerless and UGL. While both segments are involved in the distribution and manufacture of garments and uniforms and the sale of product to government agencies and corporate entities in Canada, Peerless is primarily engaged in manufacturing products for government agencies while UGL is primarily involved in distributing products to corporate entities. The segments are separately managed for reporting purposes.

Performance is measured based on segment income before income taxes, as included in the internal management reports reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker. Management has determined that this measure is the most relevant in evaluating segment results.
