Wikileaf Technologies Inc. Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2020 (In Canadian dollars) (Unaudited)
1. GOVERNING STATUTES, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CHANGE IN CORPORATE NAME
Wikileaf Technologies Inc. (hereafter "the Company") was incorporated under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on April 3, 2018. The Company's head office is in Federal Way, Washington.
On May 14, 2019, the Company completed a business acquisition by acquiring 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of One Web Services, Inc. (hereafter "One Web"). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at September 30, 2020 consolidate the accounts of the Company and One Web. The balances and transactions presented for periods prior to May 14, 2019 are those of One Web.
With the completion of the acquisition, the Company together with One Web (together referred to as "the Group"), operate wikileaf.com, an online price comparison website, to help consumers find location-based pricing information about individual cannabis strains and products, which is the Group's only operating segment.
The Group's parent company is Nesta Holding Co. Ltd.
The Company is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (hereafter "CSE") under the ticker "WIKI".
2. GOING CONCERN ASSUMPTION
The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), in particular on the assumption that the Group will continue as a going concern, meaning it will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations.
Since inception, the Group has incurred operating losses. As at September 30, 2020, the Group has an accumulated deficit of $19,151,182. The Group has not yet completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenue sufficient to cover operating expenses and relies on support from its shareholders to cover such expenses. Based on the current level of expenditures and available liquidity, management estimates that the timeline to sustain the operations of the Group is limited to within the next three months of the date of issuance of these interim consolidated financial statements.
The Group is actively seeking to secure additional funding through: equity-based financing, debt-financing or other arrangements; however, there is no assurance that the Group will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern. Consequently, these material uncertainties raise significant doubt regarding the Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

Financial Statements
September 30, 2020 (In Canadian dollars) (Unaudited)
2. GOING CONCERN ASSUMPTION (Continued)
The carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses presented in the consolidated interim financial statements and the consolidated interim statements of consolidated financial position classification have not been adjusted as would be required if the going concern assumption were not appropriate.
3. GENERAL INFORMATION AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH IFRS
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting using accounting policies adopted in the Group's most recent annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. They do not include all of the information required in annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. Unless otherwise noted below, the Group has consistently applied the same accounting policies throughout all periods presented, as if these policies were always in effect.
Government grants
Government grants are recognized when they have been earned and there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received. Government grants are recognized as a reduction of the related expenses. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020, government grants in the amount of $43,748 were recorded as a reduction of salaries and benefits in operating expenses.
These interim consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 23, 2020.
These interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company.
4. NEW OR REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and have not been adopted early by the Group
At the date of authorization of these interim consolidated financial statements, several new, but not yet effective, standards, amendments to existing standards and interpretations have been published by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereafter "the IASB"). None of these standards, amendments or interpretations have been adopted early by the Group.
Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first period beginning on or after the effective date of the pronouncement. New standards, amendments and interpretations have not been disclosed as they are not expected to have a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements.

5. ESTIMATES
When preparing the interim consolidated financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expense. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the interim consolidated financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty, were the same as those applied in the Group's last annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. The only exception is the estimate of income tax liabilities which is determined in the interim consolidated financial statements using the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period.

Restricted stock units
On June 30, 2020, the Board of Directors approved the addition of restricted stock units (RSUs) as an available cash-settled award type. A RSU is a right to receive a cash payment equal to the trading price of the Company's common shares on the CSE upon completion of time-based vesting conditions. The purpose of a RSU is to tie a portion of the value of the compensation of participants to the future value of the Company's commons shares. Grants of RSUs to employees, directors and officers of the Company are made on a discretionary basis and subject to the Board of Directors' approval.
On July 6, 2020, the Company granted 1,750,000 RSUs to its directors, expiring in 10 years from the date of issuance. The RSUs vest as follows:
-
1,170,000 RSUs vest in 260,000 RSU tranches on June 7 each year starting in 2021 or upon change of control of the Company;
-
130,000 RSUs vest upon a financing of $500,000 or more or upon a change of control of the Company;
-
450,000 RSUs vest one third a year following the grant and the remaining vest over the 36 months thereafter.
As at September 30, 2020, management has assessed the probability of a change in control of the Company at 25% and the probability of receiving a $500,000 or more financing at 50%.
The fair value of the Company's share price as at September 30, 2020 was $0.045.
The share-based compensation expense recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, related to RSUs was $20,456.
8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
8.1 Transactions with the parent company
The Group entered into a related party transaction with its parent company. The arrangement required the Group to pay a fee of US$60,000 (US$60,000 in 2019) per quarter for management services rendered. For the management fees of February 2020, the Group negotiated a reduced fee of US$12,000 for one month.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group might be unable to meet its obligations. The Group manages its liquidity needs by forecasting cash inflows and outflows due in day-to-day business.
