1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Vext Science, Inc. (formerly Vapen MJ Ventures Corporation) (the “Company”) provides management, advisory, cultivation, and dispensary services to non-for-profit entities in the medical cannabis field. The head office and principal address of the Company is located at Suite 2250 – 1055 W. Hastings St., Vancouver, BC V6E 2E9 and the U.S. headquarters is at 4152 N. 39th Ave, Phoenix, Arizona 85019. On December 31, 2018, the Company changed its name from Fabula Exploration Inc. to Calyx Growth Corporation. On March 25, 2019, the Company changed its name from Calyx Growth Corporation to Vapen MJ Ventures Corporation. On November 12, 2019, the Company changed its name from Vapen MJ Ventures Corporation to Vext Science, Inc.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to a going concern which assumes the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon the Company’s ability to continue to earn adequate revenues from operations, and to raise adequate financing. The Company intends to finance its future requirements through continued operations.
As at March 31, 2020, the Company had working capital of $20,778,488 and retained earnings of $14,320,194. There is uncertainty as the likely effects of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak which may, among other things, impact the Company’s operations and ability to raise further financing. Management has assessed that this working capital is sufficient for the Company to continue as a going concern beyond one year.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not reflect any adjustments, which could be material, to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, which may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
a) Statement of Compliance
These interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’ using accounting policies consistent with the IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of applications as the Company’s most recent audited annual consolidated financial statements. These interim financial statements do not contain all of the information required for full annual financial statements. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2019 audited annual consolidated financial statements.
b) Basis of Preparation
These interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss, and are stated at their fair value. In addition, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for certain cash flow information. The interim financial statements, unless otherwise specified, are presented in United States (“U.S.”) dollars.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION ( CONTINUED…
c) Basis of Consolidation
The interim financial statements include consolidated accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, including its economic interest in joint ventures. Subsidiaries are those entities that the Company controls. The Company controls an entity when the Company is exposed to or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company and are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.
Entities of the Company are listed below.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION ( CONTINUED… )
- e) Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates
The preparation of the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements is in conformity with IFRS, which requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and reported revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Critical Judgements
The preparation of these interim financial statements requires management to make judgements regarding the going concern of the Company, as previously discussed in Note 1, as well as the determination of functional currency, and its classification of joint arrangements. The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which an entity operates, and has been determined for each entity within the Company. Management has determined that the functional currency of the parent is the Canadian dollar, while the functional currency of the subsidiaries has been determined to be the U.S. dollar.
Joint Arrangements
As at March 31, 2020, the Company holds a 50% interest in two separate joint arrangements and a 25% interest in one joint arrangement. The Company has joint control over these arrangements as under the contractual agreements, unanimous consent is required from all parties to the agreements for certain key strategic, operating, investing and financing policies. The Company’s joint arrangements are structured as a limited liability corporation and provide the Company and its partners (parties to the agreements) with rights to the net assets of the limited liability corporations under the arrangements. Therefore, these arrangements are classified as joint ventures.
Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be significant.
Significant estimates made by management affecting these condensed consolidated interim financial statements include:
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company estimates the amount of accounts receivable that may not be collectable and will allow for a write down of such amounts. Management uses historical information on the recoverability of accounts receivable and also looks at specific account balances in determining the allowance.
Inventory Obsolescence
The Company estimates the amount of inventory on hand that may not be recoverable and will allow for a write down of such amounts.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION ( CONTINUED… )
e) Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates ( continued…
Deferred Tax Assets & Liabilities
The estimation of income taxes includes evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on an assessment of the Company’s ability to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income prior to expiry of those deductions. Management assesses whether it is probable that some or all the deferred income tax assets and liabilities will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and liabilities is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, which in turn is dependent upon the successful management of cannabis operations. To the extent that management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to utilize future tax deductions changes, the Company would be required to recognize more or fewer deferred tax assets or liabilities, and deferred income tax provisions or recoveries could be affected.
Useful Life of Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are amortized over its estimated useful life. Estimated useful lives are determined based on current facts and past management experience and take into consideration the anticipated physical life of the asset, the potential for technological obsolescence, and regulations.
Share-Based Payments
Estimating fair value for granted stock options and compensatory warrants requires determining the most appropriate valuation model which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the option or warrant, volatility, dividend yield, and rate of forfeitures and making assumptions about them.
Leases
The Company estimates the lease term by considering the facts and circumstances that can create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option by assessing relevant factors such as store profitability. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended (or not terminated). The assessment of the lease term is reviewed if a significant event or a significant change in circumstance occurs, which affects this assessment and that is within the control of the lessee. The Company estimates the incremental borrowing rate used to measure our lease liability for each lease contract. This includes estimation in determining the asset-specific security impact.
COVID-19
Given the ongoing and dynamic nature of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, it is difficult to predict how significant the impact of COVID-19, including any responses to it, will be on the global economy and the business of the Company or for how long any disruptions are likely to continue. The extent of such impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, rapidly evolving and difficult to predict, including new information which may emerge about COVID-19 and additional actions which may be taken to contain it. Such developments could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow, and exposure to credit risk. The Company is constantly evaluating the situation and monitoring any impacts or potential impacts to its business.

14. LEASES
Leases on transition:
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16, Leases. At this date, the Company had two building leases affected by the transition to IFRS 16, Leases. Of the two building leases held at January 1, 2019, one was being subleased by the Company. The second lease was subsequently subleased after transition, during the year ended December 31, 2019, and derecognized from the ROU assets.
The adjustments to record the cumulative effect of the initial application of the new accounting policy on January 1, 2019 are as follows:
a) Set up of Right of use asset (“ROU”) and lease liability:
| Right-of-use assets | $ | 970,458 |
|---|---|---|
| Accumulated depreciation | (272,145) | |
| Lease liability | (800,031) | |
| Adjustment toretained earnings | $ | (101,718) |
b) Adjustment to recognize the cumulative effect of the derecognition of the ROU for the property that was being subleased as of January 1, 2019:
| Net Investment in sub-lease | $ | 619,561 |
|---|---|---|
| Right-of use asset derecognized | (766,881) | |
| Accumulated depreciation derecognized | 223,673 | |
| Adjustment to retained earnings | $ | 76,353 |
The fair value of the lease liability was estimated using level 2 inputs on the date of the lease agreements using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate of 13% and a weighted average lease term of 8.31 years.
The two leases that were recognized as ROU assets on January 1, 2019 were subsequently subleased during the year and derecognized from the ROU assets.
During the period ended March 31, 2020, income of $49,650 from subleasing was included in property leasing.
Right-of-use assets as at March 31, 2020:
As at March 31, 2020, the Company has three lease agreements for its leased premises, consisting of office and warehouse space. Of these three leases, two have terms expiring April 30, 2024, while the third expires September 30, 2029. The two leases ending April 30, 2024 are being subleased by the Company as at March 31, 2020.

18. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to support the growth and development of its operations and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk. In the management of capital, the Company includes its components of equity.
The Company manages the capital structure and adjusts it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, issue debt, acquire or dispose of assets.
In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach is reasonable given the relative size of the Company.
The Company currently is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the period.
19. ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE
The Company had one main customer for the three months ended March 31, 2020 which accounted for 92% of the Company’s revenues, and 95% of the Company’s accounts receivable as at March 31, 2020. As the majority of the Company’s income is derived from the sale of services and products, its ability to continue operations is dependent upon the relationship with and the sustainability of the customer. Any significant disruption in the customer’s business could result in a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company. The loss of this significant customer will adversely impact the operations of the Company.
20. RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of the Company’s accounts receivable, current notes receivable, advances to joint ventures, deposits and other receivables, payables, accrued liabilities, and amount due to Legacy Ventures Hawaii, LLC, approximate carrying value, due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts of the long-term notes receivable and amount due from related parties approximate fair value. The fair values of the investment in sublease, right of use asset, and lease liability have been recorded as discussed in Note 14. The long-term loan payable is recorded at fair value as discussed in Note 15. The Company’s cash and investment in Legacy are measured at fair value under the fair value hierarchy based on Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk, price risk, and currency risk.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
The Company is subject to credit risk on its receivables. As at March 31, 2020, the Company was dependent on one major customer from its consulting business segment (Note 19). The majority ($15,667,852) of the Company’s accounts receivable are from this customer.

20. RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ( CONTINUED…
Credit risk (continued…)
The Company is of the opinion that it is not exposed to significant credit risk from this customer as at March 31, 2020 as it continues to collect accounts receivable routinely. The Company has no investments in asset-backed commercial paper.
The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable that are considered to be non-collectible. The allowance is based on the Company’s knowledge of the financial condition of its customer, current business environment, customer and industry concentrations, and historical experience. To reduce credit risk, cash is only held at major financial institutions.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
The Company manages liquidity risk through its capital management as outlined in Note 18. As at March 31, 2020, the Company had cash, accounts receivable and short-term notes receivable of $22,284,986 to settle its current liabilities of $2,209,237. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the maturity dates of $727,000 of current loans were extended for an additional year to help reduce liquidity risk. Management believes the Company has sufficient funds to support ongoing operating expenditures and meet its liabilities as they fall due.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, commodity and equity prices, and foreign exchange rates.
- a) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Company does not hold any financial instruments with variable interest rates, and as a result, is subject to insignificant interest rate risk.
- b) Price risk
The Company is not exposed to significant price risk as it does not hold investments in publicly traded securities.
- c) Currency risk
The Company’s expenditures are predominantly in U.S. dollars, and any future equity raised is expected to be predominantly in U.S. dollars. As at March 31, 2020, the Company had CAD$(14,729) net financial assets denominated in Canadian currencies. A 10% change in the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar would result in a change on approximately $1,038 in other comprehensive income.
