CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

ELECTROVAYA INC.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 and 2023


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

MNP

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Electrovaya Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Electrovaya Inc. (the "Company") as at September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended September 30, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as at September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended September 30, 2024, in conformity with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

  1. Reporting Entity

Electrovaya Inc. (the "Company") is domiciled in Ontario, Canada, and is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The Company's registered office is at 6688 Kitimat Road, Mississauga, Ontario, L5N 1P8, Canada. The Company's common shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange and NASDAQ under the symbol ELVA.TO and ELVA, respectively. The Company has no immediate or ultimate controlling parent.

These consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group" or "Company"). The Company is primarily involved in the design, development, manufacturing and sale of Lithium-Ion batteries, battery systems and battery-related products for energy storage, clean electric transportation, and other specialized applications.

  1. Basis of Presentation

a. Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the principles of International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments that have been measured at fair value.

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Company's Board of Directors on December 12, 2024.

b. Basis of Accounting

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities as they fall due in the normal course of business.

During the year ended September 30, 2024, the Company generated cash from operations of $1.04 million (September 30, 2023: $(5.23 million). As of September 30, 2024, the Company has working capital of $0.89 million (September 30, 2023: $(0.71) million) and a net loss of $1.49 million (2023: $1.48 million).

c. Functional and Presentation Currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been rounded to the nearest thousands, except per share amounts and when otherwise indicated. The functional currency of the Electrovaya Inc. is the Canadian dollar and the functional currencies of the all the Group's companies is US Dollars. Below are the companies within Group -

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

d. Use of Judgements and Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements relate to the following (assumptions made are disclosed in individual notes throughout the consolidated financial statements where relevant):

  • Estimates used in determining the net realizable values of inventories, taking into account the most reliable evidence available at each reporting date. The future realization of these inventories may be affected by future technology or other market-driven changes that may reduce future selling prices.
  • Estimates used in testing non-financial assets for impairment including determination of the recoverable amount of a cash generating unit.
  • Estimates used in determining the fair value of stock option grants and warrants. These estimates include assumptions about the volatility of the Company's stock and forfeiture.
  • Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits, together with future tax planning strategies. Information on tax losses carried forward is presented in Note 24.

Allowance for expected credit losses

The allowance for expected credit losses is based on the assessment of the collectability of customer accounts and the aging of the related invoices and represents the best estimate of probable credit losses in the existing trade accounts receivable. The Company regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, the age of the account receivable balances, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer's ability to pay.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company account for stock-based compensation costs in accordance with the accounting standards for stock-based compensation, which require that all stock-based payments to employees be recognized in the audited consolidated statements of earnings based on their fair values. The fair value of stock options on the grant date is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the single-option approach and the Monte Carlo valuation method depending on the type of option granted. The Black Scholes and


ELECTROVAYA INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

Monte Carlo option pricing models require the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions, including the option's expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock, to determine the fair value of the award.

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants in accordance with the accounting standards for warrants, which requires all warrants to be recognized in the audited consolidated statement of financial position based on their fair values. The fair value of warrants on the grant date is estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model approach. The Black Scholes pricing model requires the use of highly subjective and complex assumptions, including the warrant's expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock, to determine the fair value of the award.

3. Material Accounting Policies

The accounting policies below are in compliance with IFRS and have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

a. Basis of consolidation

i. Subsidiaries

These consolidated financial statements include direct and indirect subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. Any subsidiaries that are formed or acquired during the year are consolidated from their respective dates of formation or acquisition. Inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Company. All subsidiaries have the same reporting dates as their parent Company.

ii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-company balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intra-company transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

b. Foreign currency

Each subsidiary of the Company maintains its accounting records in its functional currency. A Company's functional currency is the currency of the principal economic environment in which it operates.

i. Foreign currency transactions

Transactions carried out in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency at the reporting date are translated at the exchange rate at that date. The foreign currency gain or loss on such monetary items is recognized as income or expense for the period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated at the historical exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

ii. Translation of financial statements of foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar are translated to U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of transaction. Foreign currency differences on translation are recognized in other comprehensive income in the cumulative translation account net of income tax.

Foreign exchange gains or losses arising from a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation, the settlement of which is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future and which in substance is considered to form part of the net investment in the foreign operation, are recognized in other comprehensive income in the foreign currency translation reserve.

c. Financial instruments

Recognition

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the Company's consolidated statement of financial position when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. On initial recognition, all financial assets and financial liabilities are recorded at fair value, net of attributable transaction costs, except for financial assets and liabilities classified as at fair value through profit or loss ('FVTPL'). The directly attributable transactions costs of financial assets and liabilities as at FVTPL are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Subsequent measurement of financial assets and liabilities depends on the classification of such assets and liabilities.

Classification and Measurement

The Company determines the classification of its financial instruments at initial recognition. Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified according to the following measurement categories:

  • those to be measured subsequently at fair value either through profit or loss ("FVTPL") or through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"); and,
  • those to be measured subsequently at amortized cost.

The classification and measurement of financial assets after initial recognition at fair value depends on the business model for managing the financial asset and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding, are generally measured at amortized cost at each subsequent reporting period. All other financial assets are measured at their fair values at each subsequent reporting period, with any changes recorded through FVTPL or through FVTOCI (which designation is made as an irrevocable election at the time of recognition).

After initial recognition at fair value, financial liabilities are classified and measured at either:


ELECTROVAYA INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

  • amortized cost.
  • FVTPL, if the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of recognition, or when required (for items such as instruments held for trading or derivatives); or,
  • the Company reclassifies financial assets when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes. Financial liabilities are not reclassified.

The Company's financial assets consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and prepaid expenses, which are classified and subsequently measured at amortized cost. The Company's financial liabilities consist of trade and other payables, working capital facilities, promissory notes, short term loans, lease liability, relief and recovery fund payable, and other payables, which are classified and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Derivative liability is classified and measured at fair value through profit and loss. Interest expense is reported in profit or loss.

d. Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents include short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.

e. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost of raw material is determined using the average cost method. Cost of semi-finished and finished goods are determined using the First in First out (FIFO) method. Cost includes all expenses directly attributable to the manufacturing process as well as appropriate portions of related production overheads. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less any applicable selling expenses.

f. Property, plant and equipment

Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment (other than land and buildings) are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the cost of material and labor and other costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use.

When significant components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognized net within profit or loss.

The Company capitalizes borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying property, plant and equipment as part of the cost of that asset, if applicable. Capitalized borrowing costs are amortized over the useful life of the related asset.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

The Company adopted the revaluation method of accounting for the newly acquired building and land. Land and building measured using the revaluation method is initially measured at cost and subsequently carried at its revalued amount, being the fair value at the date of the revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Revaluations are made on an annual basis to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ significantly from fair value. Where the carrying amount of an asset increases as a result of revaluation, the increase is recognized in other comprehensive income or loss and accumulated in equity in revaluation surplus, unless the increase reverses a previously recognized impairment recorded through net income, in which case that portion of the increase is recognized in net income. Where the carrying amount of an asset decreases, the decrease is recognized in other comprehensive income to the extent of any balance existing in revaluation surplus in respect of the asset, with the remainder of the decrease recognized in profit or loss. Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually. Gains or losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the assets and are recognized in profit or loss within "other income" or "other expenses.

Subsequent costs

The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company, and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred, except where they serve to increase productivity or to prolong the useful life of an asset, in which case they are capitalized.

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

The following useful lives are applied:

Item Life (in years)
Leasehold improvements 3
Production equipment 2-15
Office furniture and equipment 2-5
Building 20
Right of use assets Over the lease term

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

g. Leases

Where the Company has entered a lease, the Company has recognized a right-of-use asset representing its rights to use the underlying assets and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. The right-of-use asset, where it relates to an operating lease, has been presented net of accumulated

depreciation and is disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position. The lease liability has been disclosed as a separate line item, allocated between current and non-current liabilities. The lease liability associated with all leases is measured at the present value of the expected lease payments at inception and discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If the rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease liability. Judgement is required to determine the incremental borrowing rate.

h. Impairment

  • Financial assets

The Company recognizes an allowance for credit losses equal to lifetime credit losses for trade and other receivables. None of these assets include a financing component. Significant receivable balances are assessed for impairment individually based on information specific to the customer. The remaining receivables are grouped, where possible, based on shared credit risk characteristics, and assessed for impairment collectively. The allowance assessment incorporates past experience, current and expected future conditions.

  • Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset's recoverable amount is estimated. For intangible assets that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated to the carrying amounts of the assets in the unit (group of units).

In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is 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 loss had been recognized.

i. Provisions

Legal

Provisions are recognized for present legal or constructive obligations arising from past events when the amount can be reliably estimated, and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle an obligation. Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of

ELECTROVAYA INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material.

At the end of each reporting period, the Company evaluates the appropriateness of the remaining balances. Adjustments to the recorded amounts may be required to reflect actual experience or to reflect the current best estimate.

In the normal course of operations, the Company may be subject to lawsuits, investigations and other claims, including environmental, labor, product, customer disputes and other matters. The ultimate outcome or actual cost of settlement may vary significantly from the original estimates. Material obligations that have not been recognized as provisions, as the outcome is not probable or the amount cannot be reliably estimated, are disclosed as contingent liabilities, unless the likelihood of outcome is remote.

j. Share-based payments

The Company accounts for all share-based payments to employees and non-employees using the fair value-based method of accounting. The Company measures the compensation cost of stock-based option awards to employees at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the options. The share-based compensation cost of the options is recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the relevant vesting period of the stock options.

Under the Company's stock option plan, all options granted under the plan have a maximum term of 10 years and have an exercise price per share of not less than the market value of the Company's common shares on the date of grant. The Board of Directors has the discretion to accelerate the vesting of options or stock appreciation rights granted under the plan in accordance with applicable laws and the rules and policies of any stock exchange on which the Company's common shares are listed.

The Company has an option plan whereby options are granted to employees and consultants as part of the Company's incentive plans. Stock options vest in installments over the vesting period. Stock options typically vest one third each year over 3 years or immediately as approved by the Board. The Company treats each installment as a separate grant in determining stock-based compensation expense.

The grant date fair value of options granted to employees is recognized as stock-based compensation expense, with a corresponding charge to contributed surplus, over the vesting period. The expense is adjusted to reflect the estimated number of options expected to vest at the end of the vesting period, adjusted for the estimated forfeitures during the period. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognized in the prior periods if share options ultimately exercised are different to that estimated on vesting. The fair value of options is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Measurement inputs include the price of Common shares on the measurement date, exercise price of the option, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility), weighted average expected life of the option (based on historical experience and general option holder behavior), expected dividends, estimated forfeitures and the risk-free interest rate.

Upon exercise of options, the proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs up to the nominal value of the shares issued are allocated to share capital with any excess being recorded in retained earnings or deficit.

k. Income taxes

Tax expense recognized in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods, that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. However, deferred tax is not provided on the initial recognition of goodwill on the initial recognition of an asset or liability unless the related transaction is a business combination or affects tax or accounting profit or transactions that at the time of the transaction, does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. Deferred tax on temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures is not provided if reversal of these temporary differences can be controlled by the Company and it is probable that reversal will not occur in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply to their respective period of realization, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilized against future taxable income, based on the Company's forecast of future operating results which is adjusted for significant non-taxable income and expenses and specific limits to the use of any unused tax loss or credit.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Company has a right and intention to set off current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority. Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss, except where they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively. A valuation allowance is recorded against any deferred income tax asset if it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized.

l. Revenue

Revenue arises from the sale of goods and the rendering of services. It is measured by reference to the fair value of consideration received or receivable, excluding sales taxes, rebates, and trade discounts. The Company often enters sales transactions involving a range of the Company's products and services, for example for the delivery of battery systems and related services.

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

Sale of goods

Sale of goods and services is recognized when the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership, generally when the customer has taken undisputed delivery of the goods and services. For contracts that permit the customer to return an item, revenue is recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Therefore, the amount of revenue recognized is adjusted for expected returns, which are estimated based on the historical data for specific types of products.

Advance payments by customers - Any advance receipts from customers are included in contract liabilities until the revenue recognition criteria is met.

Warranty provision

A provision for warranty costs is recorded on product sales at the time the sale is recognized. In establishing the warranty provision, management estimates the likelihood that products sold will experience warranty claims and the estimated cost to resolve claims received, taking into account the nature of the contract and past and projected experience with the products.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company has met the requirements of the approved grant program and there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received. Government grants that compensate for expenses already incurred are recognized in income on a systematic basis in the same year in which the expenses are incurred. Government grants for immediate financial support, with no future related costs, are recognized in income when receivable. Government grants that compensate the Company for the cost of an asset are recognized on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset. Government grants consisting of investment tax credits are recorded as a reduction of the related expense or cost of the asset acquired. If a government grant becomes repayable, the repayment is treated as a change in estimate. Where the original grant related to income, the repayment is applied first against any related deferred government grant balance, and any excess as an expense. Where the original grant related to an asset, the repayment is treated as an increase to the carrying amount of the asset or as a reduction to the deferred government grant balance.

m. Research and development

Expenditure on research is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

Costs that are directly attributable to the development phase are recognized as intangible assets provided, they meet the following recognition requirements:

  • completion of the intangible asset is technically feasible so that it will be available for use or sale.
  • the Company intends to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it.
  • the Company has the ability to use or sell the intangible asset.

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

  • the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits. Among other things, this requires that there is a market for the output from the intangible asset or for the intangible asset itself, or, if it is to be used internally, the asset will be used in generating such benefits.
  • there are adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset.
  • the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development can be measured reliably.

Development costs not meeting these criteria for capitalization are expensed in profit or loss as incurred.

n. Finance income and expense, foreign currency gains and losses

Interest income is reported on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

Finance costs are comprised of interest expense on promissory notes, short term loans and working capital facilities. Borrowing costs that are not directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method. Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.

o. Earnings per share (EPS)

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") data for its common shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprise share options granted to employees. In a period of losses, the dilutive instruments comprising warrants and stock options are excluded for the determination of dilutive net loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

p. Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Company's other components. All operating segments' operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

4. Standards issued but not yet effective

The IASB and the IFRIC have issued the following new and revised standards and interpretations that are not yet effective for the relevant reporting periods and the Company has not early adopted these standards, amendments and interpretations. However, the Company is currently assessing what impact the application

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

of these standards or amendments will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company. The Company intends to adopt these standards, if applicable, when the standards become effective:

a. Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16)

The amendments address the measurement requirements for sale and leaseback transactions. The amendments require a seller-lessee to subsequently measure lease liabilities arising from a leaseback in a way that it does not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted. A seller-lessee shall apply the amendments retrospectively to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application. The date of initial application is the beginning of the annual reporting period in which an entity first applies IFRS 16.

b. Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current and Non-Current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1)

  • Liabilities are classified as either current or non-current depending on the existence at the end of the reporting period of a right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. The amendments also clarify that only covenants that an entity must comply with on or before the reporting date would affect a liability's classification as current or non-current, even if compliance with the covenant is only assessed after the entity's reporting date. Classification is unaffected by the likelihood that an entity will settle the liability within 12 months after the reporting date; and
  • How an entity classifies debt an entity may settle by converting it into equity.

Additionally, the amendments added new disclosure requirements for situations where a liability is classified as non-current and the entity's right to defer settlement is contingent on compliance with future covenants within twelve months after the reporting date. The disclosure should enable users of financial statements to understand the risk that the liability classified as non-current could become repayable within 12 months after the reporting period. Amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, and do not have any impact on the Company's reporting requirements.

c. Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21)

The amendments specify how to determine whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and how to determine the spot exchange rate when a currency lacks exchangeability.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. In applying the amendments, an entity shall not restate comparative periods but will follow the specific transitional provisions included in the amendments.

d. IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (New)

IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, and for all entities will-


ELECTROVAYA INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

  • Introduce a new defined structure for the statement of profit and loss and require the classification of income and expenses in that statement into one of five categories: operating; investing; financing; income taxes; and discontinued operations. IFRS 18 introduces definitions of these categories for purposes of the statement of profit and loss. Specific categorization requirements will apply to entities whose 'main business activity' is to provide financing to customers or to invest in specified assets. Entities will also be required to present new subtotals for 'operating profit or loss' and 'profit or loss before financing and income taxes.

  • Require disclosure of 'management-defined performance measures' (MPMs) in a single note to the financial statements. MPMs are subtotals of income and expenses that an entity uses in public communications outside of its financial statements, to communicate management's view of an aspect of the financial performance of the entity as a whole to users. Entities must disclose a reconciliation between the measure and the most directly comparable total or subtotal specifically required to be disclosed by IFRS Accounting Standards or subtotal listed in IFRS 18.

  • Enhance guidance about how to group information within the financial statements; and

  • For the statement of cash flows, require that 'operating profit or loss' be used as the starting point for determining cash flows from operating activities under the indirect method, and remove the optionality around classification of cash flows from interest and dividends.

IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including for interim financial statements. Earlier application is permitted. The new standard is to be applied retrospectively, and, in the year of adoption, a reconciliation is required between how the statement of profit or loss was presented in the comparative period under IAS 1 and how it is presented in the current year under IFRS 18.

The Company amortize the estimated grant date fair value of stock options to expense over the vesting period (generally three years). The grant date fair value of outstanding stock options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model which uses highly subjective and complex assumptions, including the option's expected term and the price volatility of the underlying stock based on historical stock prices, to determine the fair value of the option.

i. The following table summarizes the assumptions used with the Black-Scholes valuation model for the determination of the stock-based compensation costs for the stock options granted during the year ended September 30, 2024:

Grant date April 05, 2024
No of options 443,000
Share price $3.44
Exercise price $3.44
Average expected life in years 10

Details of Share Warrants

Number Outstanding Exercise Price

Expired (291,924) $5.92
Outstanding, September 30, 2024 1,420,000 $2.38

Additionally, the number of derivative warrants at September 30, 2024 were 912,841 (September 30, 2023: 912,841).

The grant date fair value of outstanding share warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model using the following assumptions in the year of the grant:

Risk-free interest rate (based on U.S. government bond yields) of 2.94% (September 30, 2023: 3.80%), expected volatility of the market price of shares (based on historical volatility of share price) of 52.72%, (September 30, 2023: 85.58%) and the expected warrant life (in years) of 1.1 (September 30, 2023: 3). As a result of the reverse stock split, every five warrants were consolidated into one warrant without any action from warrant holders, reducing the number of outstanding warrants from approximately 13.1 million to 2.6 million. A 10% of change in any assumption would result in the change in derivative warrant liability between $(51) (September 30, 2023: ($417)) and $(2) (September 30, 2023: $393).

Warrant continuity schedule is as follows:

Units Fair Value

Research Lab – Facility Usage Agreement

In May 2021, Electrovaya entered a month-to-month Facility Usage Agreement for the use of space and allocated staff of a third-party research firm providing access to laboratory facilities, primarily for research. The laboratory and pilot plant facilities have certain equipment and permits for research and developments with chemicals. The term of the agreement was for six months and could be terminated by either party upon 90 days notice.

In July 2021, the facility was acquired by an investor group controlled by the family of Dr. Sankar Das Gupta, which includes its CEO, Dr. Rajshekar Das Gupta. The Facility Usage Agreement was not changed on the change of ownership and remains in effect between the Company and the owner, such that the monthly payment of Cdn $25,265 is now made to a related party of Electrovaya.

On June 7, 2023, the Facility Usage Agreement was retroactively extended from January 1, 2023, for an additional three years. The lease has been recognized as a lease liability and corresponding right of use asset.

The fair value of these options on the day of grant are calculated using the Monte Carlo method of option valuation and expensed over the mean vesting period in accordance with IFRS 2. The expense of $456 (September 30, 2023: $256) is recorded within stock-based compensation in the consolidated statement of earnings.

Dr. Rajshekar Das Gupta was granted 900,000 options which vest in three tranches of 300,000 options based on reaching specific target market capitalizations.

Fair Value

IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” provides guidance about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value are required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs. The first two levels are considered observable and the last unobservable. These levels are used to measure fair values as follows:

  • Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.
  • Level 2 – Inputs, other than Level 1 inputs that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
  • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Risk Management

The Company may be exposed to risks of varying degrees of significance which could affect its ability to achieve its strategic objectives. The main objectives of the Company's risk management processes are to ensure that the risks are properly identified and that the capital base is adequate in relation to those risks. The principal risks to which the Company is exposed are described below. There have been no changes in risk exposure since the prior year unless otherwise noted.

Capital risk

The Company manages its capital to ensure that there are adequate capital resources for the Company to maintain and develop its products. The capital structure of the Company consists of shareholders' equity and depends on the underlying profitability of the Company's operations.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the development, manufacture and marketing of its products. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business.

ELECTROVAYA INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except where otherwise indicated)

For the years ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023

The Company's capital management objectives are:

  • to ensure the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
  • to provide an adequate return to shareholders by pricing products and services commensurately with the level of risk.

The Company monitors capital based on the carrying amount of equity plus its short-term debt comprised of the promissory notes, less cash and cash equivalents as presented on the face of the consolidated statement of financial position.

The Company sets the amount of capital in proportion to its overall financing structure, comprised of equity and long-term debt. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in the light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company issues new shares or increases its long-term debt.

Credit risk and Concentration risk

Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty fails to discharge an obligation to the Company. The Company is exposed to this risk due to its cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables.

The Company manages its credit risk related to trade and other receivables by establishing procedures to establish credit limits and approval policies. The balance in trade and other receivables is primarily attributable to trade accounts receivables. In the opinion of management, the credit risk is moderate and minimum credit losses are expected. Management is taking appropriate action to mitigate this risk by adjusting credit terms.

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by its customers. Accounts receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not bear interest, and do not require collateral. For the year ended September 30, 2024, two customers accounted for $38.9 million or 87.21% of revenue (2023 one customer accounted for $42 million or 94%). As of September 30, 2024, two customers accounted for 96% of accounts receivable (2023 one customer accounted for 85%). Refer note 5 for expected credit loss provision.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may not have cash available to satisfy its financial obligations as they come due. The majority of the Company's financial liabilities recorded in accounts payable, accrued and other current liabilities and provisions are due within 90 days. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining a portfolio of liquid funds and having access to a revolving credit facility. The Company believes that cash flow from operating activities, together with cash on hand, cash from its trade and other receivables, and borrowings available under the revolving facility are sufficient to fund its currently anticipated financial obligations and will remain available in the current environment.

Market risk

Market risk incorporates a range of risks. Movement in risk factors, such as market price risk and currency risk, affect the fair value of financial assets and liabilities. The Company is exposed to these risks as the ability of the Company to develop or market its products and the future profitability of the Company is related to the market price of its primary competitors for similar products.

Interest rate risk

The Company has variable interest debt as described in Note 11 and 13. Changes in interest rates will affect future interest expense and cash flows. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments to reduce this exposure.

Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk. The Company's functional currency is the United States dollar (Electrovaya Inc.'s functional currency is CAD) and the financial statements are presented in United

States dollars. Changes in the relative values of these currencies will give rise to changes in other comprehensive income.

Purchases are transacted in Canadian dollars, United States dollars and Euro. Management believes the foreign exchange risk derived from any currency conversions may have a material effect on the results of its operations. The financial instruments impacted by a change in exchange rates include exposures to the above financial assets or liabilities denominated in nonfunctional currencies. Cash held by the Company in US dollars at September 30, 2024 was $159 (September 30, 2023 $175).

If the US dollar to Canadian foreign exchange rate changed by 2% this would change the recorded net gain(loss) by $174 (September 30, 2023-$173).

21. Contingencies

a. Refundable Ontario Investment Tax Credits

On July 22, 2022, the Company received a Notice of Confirmation from the CRA relating to the 2014 and 2015 SRED reassessment for $299 (Cdn$386) and $302 (Cdn$389) including interest respectively. The balance owing has been fully provided for in other payables, and the Company is pursuing the next appropriate step in the appeal process and believes the amounts may be reversed or substantially reduced. The outcome cannot be determined.

b. Ministry of Energy

On May 28, 2018, the Province of Ontario issued a claim against Electrovaya Corp. claiming $655 (Cdn $830) related to a dispute regarding funding and fulfilment of the Intelligent Energy Storage System under the Smart Grid Fund program. A Statement of Defense disputing the claim in its entirety was filed on March 21, 2019. No further steps have been taken by the province to pursue the claim.

c. Other Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to business related claims. The potential outcomes related to existing matters faced by the Company are not determinable at this time. The Company intends to defend these actions, and management believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.

22. Segment and Customer Reporting

The Company develops, manufactures and markets power technology products. There is only a single segment applicable to the Company.

Given the size and nature of the products produced, the Company's sales are segregated based on large format batteries, with the remaining smaller product line categorized as "Other".

23. Other payables

Technology Partnerships Canada ("TPC") projects were long-term (up to 30 years) commencing with an R&D phase, followed by a benefits phase – the period in which a product, or a technology, could generate revenue for the Company. In such cases, repayments would flow back to the program according to the terms and conditions of the Company's contribution agreement.

In June 2018, the contribution agreement was amended and is included at its net present value in other payables. Further, in September 2024, the agreement was further amended with amended terms and conditions for the repayment of the debt with new payment schedule. Consequently, the old debt was de

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the future tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of deferred taxable income during the year in which those temporary differences become deductible.

Management considers projected future taxable income, uncertainties related to the industry in which the Company operates and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
