CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of FSD Pharma Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of FSD Pharma Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows and changes in equity for the years December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements).

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company produced a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2018. These conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2, indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that casts substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

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 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 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.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

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

1. Corporate information and nature of operations

FSD Pharma Inc. ("FSD" or the "Company") was formed under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (the "OBCA") on May 24, 2018 as part of a transaction between FV Pharma Inc. (“FV Pharma”) and Century Financial Capital Group Inc. (“Century”) (Note 4). On May 24, 2018, the Company changed its name to "FSD Pharma Inc.". The head office of the Company is located at 520 William Street, Cobourg, Ontario, K9A 3A5.

The Class B Subordinate Voting Shares of the Company ("Class B shares") are posted for trading in Canada on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the trading symbol "HUGE", in the United States of America on the OTCQB under the trading symbol "FSDDF", and on the Frankfurt Exchange under “WKN: A2JM6M” and the ticker symbol “0K9".

FSD and FV Pharma are in the business of the production and sale of medical cannabis in accordance with Health Canada’s Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulation (the “ACMPR”), issued pursuant to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (Canada).

FV Pharma received its licence under section 22(2) of the ACMPR on October 13 2017. The licence effectively permits FV Pharma to acquire marijuana plants and/or seeds for the purpose of initiating plant growth and for conducting analytical testing within the confines of its facility located at 520 William Street, Cobourg, Ontario.

The licence does not permit FV Pharma to sell medical cannabis. In order to proceed with the sale of medical cannabis, FV Pharma will first have to obtain an amendment to its licence from Health Canada. The granting of such an amendment is dependent upon FV Pharma demonstrating compliance with the quality control standards and the good production practices as established under subdivision D of the ACMPR, as well as Health Canada completing an inspection with respect to record-keeping, security measures, packaging, labelling, shipping, and other requirements prescribed by the ACMPR. Health Canada may then issue an extended licence which would allow FV Pharma to sell or provide fresh or dried marijuana or cannabis oil to patients of FV Pharma, or such other persons who are permitted to purchase cannabis products under subsection 22(2) of the ACMPR.

On April 22, 2019, the Company announced that FV Pharma had received its Sale for Medical Purposes license to sell cannabis under the Cannabis Act (Canada). The license went into effect on April 18, 2019. The license allows the Company’s current facility to supply and sell cannabis products.

2. Basis of presentation

Going concern of operations

The Company is in the preliminary stages of its planned operations and has not yet determined whether its processes and business plans are economically viable. The continued operations of the Company and the recoverability of amounts shown for property, plant and equipment is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain sufficient financing to complete the development of its facilities and extraction processes, and if they are proven successful, the existence of future profitable production, or alternatively, upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interest on an advantageous basis, all of which are uncertain.

The amount shown for property, plant and equipment does not necessarily represent its present or future value. Changes in future conditions could require a material change in the amount recorded for property, plant and equipment.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Although the Company has a positive working capital position as at December 31, 2018, it will need to raise additional capital in the near term to fund its ongoing operations and business activities. There is no assurance that such financings will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. As a result of these circumstances, there are material uncertainties that cast significant doubt as to the appropriateness of the going concern presumption. These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and classifications in the statement of financial position that may be necessary were the Company unable to continue as a going concern and these adjustments could be material.

Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"). These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 3, 2019.

Subsidiaries

These consolidated financial statements are comprised of the financial results of the Company and its subsidiary. A subsidiary is an entity over which the Company has control. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and can affect those returns through its power over the investee. Non-controlling interests in the equity of a subsidiary is shown separately in equity in the consolidated statements of financial position. As at December 31, 2018, the Company had one wholly owned subsidiary, FV Pharma. The Company did not have any subsidiaries in 2017.

Foreign currency translation

These financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiary.

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in effect on the date of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated to Canadian dollars at the foreign exchange rate applicable at that date. Realized and unrealized exchange gains and losses are recognized through profit or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

Basis of measurement

These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, with the exception of financial instruments classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured at fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

3. Summary of significant accounting policies

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions and other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. For cash flow statement presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes bank overdrafts.

Property, plant and equipment

On initial recognition, property, plant and equipment are valued at cost, being the purchase price and directly attributable cost of acquisition or construction required to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Company, including appropriate borrowing costs and the estimated present value of any future unavoidable costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognized within provisions.

Property, plant and equipment is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation, less any accumulated impairment losses, with the exception of land which is not depreciated.

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

The cost of replacing part of an item of property 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. The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in profit or loss.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the statements of operations during the financial period in which they occurred.

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, and are recognized net within other income in the statements of operations.

Depreciation is recognized in profit or loss and is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets is provided as follows:

Computers	30% declining balance
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	20% declining balance
Facility under development	Not amortized
Land	Not amortized

The Company will commence depreciation on facility under development upon completion of its planned major expansion to the growing area and upon commencement of commercial production.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted, if appropriate.

Restoration, rehabilitation and environmental obligations

A legal or constructive obligation to incur restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs may arise when environmental disturbance is caused by development or production. Such costs arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work, discounted to their net present value, are provided for and capitalized to the carrying amount of the asset, as soon as the obligation to incur such costs arises. Discount rates using a pretax rate that reflects the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value. These costs are charged against profit or loss over the economic life of the related asset, through an amortization method as appropriate. The related liability is adjusted for each period for the unwinding of the discount rate and for changes to the current market based discount rate, amount or timing of the underlying cash flows needed to settle the obligation. Costs for restoration of subsequent site damage that is created on an ongoing basis during production are provided for at their net present values and charged against profits.

The Company has no material restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs as at December 31, 2018.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment tests on intangible assets with indefinite useful economic lives are undertaken annually at the financial year- end. Other non-financial assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell, the asset is written down accordingly.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the impairment test is carried out on the asset's cash-generating unit, which is the lowest group of assets in which the asset belongs for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets. The Company has one cash-generating unit for which impairment testing is performed.

An impairment loss is charged to profit or loss, except to the extent they reverse gains previously recognized in other comprehensive loss/income.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized for liabilities of uncertain timing or amount that have arisen as a result of past transactions, including legal or constructive obligations. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.

Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises of current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in net profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive loss/income.

Current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes payable or receivable on taxable income or loss for the current year and any adjustment to income taxes payable in respect of previous years. Current income taxes are determined using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year-end date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized where the carrying amount of an asset or liability differs from its tax base, except for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill and temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction which is not a business combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss.

Recognition of deferred tax assets for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences is restricted to those instances where it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilized. At the end of each reporting period, the Company reassesses unrecognized deferred tax assets. The Company recognizes a previously unrecognized deferred tax asset to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Share capital

Financial instruments issued by the Company are classified as equity only to the extent that they do not meet the definition of a financial liability or financial asset.

The Company's common shares, options and warrants are classified as equity instruments.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of shares, warrants or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Earnings/loss per share

Basic earnings/loss per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss applicable to common shares of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the relevant period.

Diluted earnings/loss per common share is computed by dividing the net income or loss applicable to common shares by the sum of the weighted average number of Class B shares issued and outstanding and all additional Class B shares that would have been outstanding, if potentially dilutive instruments were converted.

Share based payments

The fair value of equity-settled share options granted to employees is recognized as an expense over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in equity. An individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes (direct employee) or provides services similar to those performed by a direct employee, including directors of the Company.

The fair value is measured at the grant date and is recognized over the period during which the options vest. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. At each reporting date, the amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that are expected to vest.

Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received.

Investments

Purchases and sales of investments are recognized on a trade date basis. Public and private investments at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in profit or loss. At each financial reporting period, the Company’s management estimates the fair value of its investments based on the criteria below and reflects such valuations in the financial statements. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred in profit or loss.

The determination of fair value requires judgment and is based on market information where available and appropriate. At the end of each financial reporting period, the Company’s management estimates the fair value of investments based on the criteria below and reflects such changes in valuations in profit or loss.

The Company is also required to present its investments (and other financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value) into three hierarchy levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) based on the transparency of inputs used in measuring the fair value, and to provide additional disclosure in connection therewith. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – investment with quoted market price;

Level 2 – investment which valuation technique is based on observable market inputs; and

Level 3 – investment which valuation technique is based on non-observable market inputs.

Publicly-traded investments:

1. Securities, including shares, options, and warrants that are traded on a recognized securities exchange and for which no sales restrictions apply are recorded at fair values based on quoted closing prices at the reporting date or the closing price on the last day the security traded if there were no trades at the reporting date. These are included in Level 1.

2. Securities that are traded on a recognized securities exchange but which are escrowed or otherwise restricted as to sale or transfer are recorded at amounts discounted from market value. Shares that are received as part of a private placement that are subject to a standard four-month hold period are not discounted. In determining the discount for such investments, the Company considers the nature and length of the restriction, business risk of the investee corporation, relative trading volume and price volatility and any other factors that may be relevant to the ongoing and realizable value of the investments. These are included in Level 2.

3. Warrants or options of publicly-traded securities which do not have a quoted price are carried at an estimated fair value calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model if sufficient and reliable observable market inputs are available. If no such market inputs are available or reliable, the warrants and options are valued at intrinsic value.

The amounts at which the Company’s publicly-traded investments could be disposed of may differ from carrying values based on market quotes, as the value at which significant ownership positions are sold is often different than the quoted market price due to a variety of factors such as premiums paid for large blocks or discounts due to illiquidity. Such differences could be material.

Privately-held investments:

1. Securities in privately-held companies (other than options and warrants) are initially recorded at cost, being the fair value at the time of acquisition. At the end of each financial reporting period, the Company’s management estimates the fair value of investments based on the criteria below and reflects such valuations in the financial statements. These are included in Level 3. Options and warrants of private companies are carried at their intrinsic value.

With respect to valuation, the financial information of private companies in which the Company has investments may not always be available, or such information may be limited and/or unreliable. Use of the valuation approach described below may involve uncertainties and determinations based on the Company’s judgment and any value estimated from these may not be realized or realizable. In addition to the events described below, which may affect a specific investment, the Company will take into account general market conditions when valuing the privately-held investments in its portfolio. In the absence of occurrence of any of these events or any significant change in general market conditions indicates generally that the fair value of the investment has not materially changed.

2. An upward adjustment is considered appropriate and supported by pervasive and objective evidence such as a significant equity financing by an unrelated investor at a transaction price higher than the Company’s carrying value; or if there have been significant corporate, political or operating events affecting the investee company that, in management’s opinion, have a positive impact on the investee company’s prospects and therefore its fair value. In these circumstances, the adjustment to the fair value of the investment will be based on management’s judgment and any value estimated may not be realized or realizable. Such events include, without limitation:

• political changes in a country in which the investee company operates that, for example, reduce the corporate tax burden, permit operations where, or to an extent that, it was not previously allowed, or reduce or eliminate the need for permitting or approvals;

• receipt by the investee company of approvals, which allow the investee company to proceed with its project(s);

• important positive management changes by the investee company that the Company’s management believes will have a very positive impact on the investee company’s ability to achieve its objectives and build value for shareholders.

3. Downward adjustments to carrying values are made when there is evidence of a decline in value as indicated by the assessment of the financial condition of the investment based on third party financing, operational results, forecasts, and other developments since acquisition, or if there have been significant corporate, political or operating events affecting the investee company that, in management’s opinion, have a negative impact on the investee company’s prospects and therefore its fair value. The amount of the change to the fair value of the investment is based on management’s judgment and any value estimated may not be realized or realizable.

Such events include, without limitation:

• political changes in a country in which the investee company operates that increases the tax burden on companies, that prohibit operations where it was previously allowed, that increases the need for permitting or approvals, etc.;

• denial of the investee company’s application for approvals that prohibit the investee company from proceeding with its projects;

• the investee company releases negative results;

• changes to the management of the investee company take place that the Company believes will have a negative impact on the investee company’s ability to achieve its objectives and build value for shareholders;

• based on financial information received from the investee company, it is apparent to the Company that the investee company is unlikely to be able to continue as a going concern.

The resulting values may differ from values that would be realized had a ready market existed. The amounts at which the Company’s privately-held investments could be disposed of may differ from the carrying value assigned. Such differences could be material.

Inventory

Inventories of products for resale and supplies and consumables are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost determined using the average cost basis. As at December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had no material inventory.

Biological assets

The Company’s biological assets consist of cannabis plants. With the exception of depreciation, which is directly expensed in the period and presented separately in the consolidated statement of operations, the Company capitalizes the direct and indirect costs incurred related to the biological transformation of the biological assets between the point of initial recognition and the point of harvest. The Company then measures the biological assets at fair value less cost to sell up to the point of harvest, which becomes the basis for the cost of finished goods inventories after harvest. The net unrealized gains or losses arising from changes in fair value less cost to sell during the year are included in the results of operations of the related year. Seeds are measured at fair value. As at December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had no material biological assets.

Recent accounting pronouncements adopted

Effective January 1 2018, the Company has adopted the following new and revised standards, along with any consequential amendments. These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions.

(a) IFRS 2, Share-based Payment (“IFRS 2”) - In June 2016, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 2, which expands upon the guidance for recognizing a liability for cash-settlement of a share-based payment as well as transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations. The adoption of this standard has had no significant effect on the Company's financial reporting.

(b) IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”), was issued in May 2015, which replaced IAS 11,

Construction Contracts, IAS 18, Revenue Recognition, IFRIC 13, Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15, Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18, Transfers of Assets from Customers, and SIC-31, Revenue – Barter Transactions Involving Advertising Services. IFRS 15 provides a single, principles based five step model that will apply to all contracts with customers with limited exceptions. In addition to the five-step model, the standard specifies how to account for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs directly related to fulfilling a contract. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract must be recognized as an asset if the entity expects to recover these costs. The standard’s requirements also apply to the recognition and measurement of gains and losses on the sale of some non- financial assets that are not an output of the entity’s ordinary activities. The adoption of this standard has had no significant effect on the Company's financial reporting.

(c) IFRS 9 addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories; amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments and such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or fair value through other comprehensive income. The effective date of this standard was January 1, 2018. The Company has adopted this new standard as of its effective date on a modified retrospective basis. The 2017 comparatives were not restated.

(i) Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”)

This category only includes equity instruments, which the Company intends to hold for the foreseeable future and which the Company has irrevocably elected to so classify upon initial recognition or transition. Equity instruments in this category are subsequently measured at fair value with changes recognized at other comprehensive income, with no recycling of gains or losses to profit or loss upon derecognition. Equity instruments at FVTOCI are not subject to an impairment assessment under IFRS 9. The Company has no items at FVTOCI.

(ii) Amortized cost

This category includes financial assets that are held within a business model with the objective to hold the financial assets in order to collect the contractual cash flows that meet the solely principal and interest (“SPPI”) criterion. Financial assets classified in this category are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

(iii) Fair value through profit or loss

This category includes derivative instruments and equity instruments which the Company has not irrevocably elected, at initial recognition or transition, to classify as FVTOCI. This category would also include debt instruments whose cash flow characteristics fail the SPPI criterion or are not held within a business model whose objective is either to collect contractual cash flows, or to both collect contractual cash flows and sell. Financial assets in this category are recorded at fair value with changes recognized in profit or loss.

Classification

On adoption of IFRS 9, the Company has made the following classifications with respect to its financial instruments:

• Cash is classified as at amortized cost (2017 – loans and receivables).

• Cash equivalents are classified as FVTPL (2017 – FVTPL).

• Other investments are classified as FVTPL (2017 – not applicable).

• Trade payables and accrued liabilities are classified as at amortized cost (2017 - other financial liabilities).

No restatements were recorded resulting from the adoption of IFRS 9.

Impairment of financial assets

Prior to the adoption of IFRS 9, financial assets measured at amortized cost, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. A financial asset is considered impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the discounted estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have been impacted.

The adoption of IFRS 9 has fundamentally changed the Company’s accounting of impairment losses for financial assets by replacing IFRS 39’s incurred loss approach with a forward-looking expected credit loss (“ECL”) approach. IFRS 9 requires the Company to record an allowance for ECLs for all debt financial assets not held at fair value though profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive. The shortfall is then discounted at an approximation of the asset’s original effective interest rate.

Derecognition

(i) Financial assets

The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity. Gains and losses on derecognition are recognized in profit or loss.

(ii) Financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when its obligations under the financial liabilities are discharged, cancelled or expired. Generally, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in the profit or loss.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Applied

Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2019 or later. Updates that are not applicable or are not consequential to the Company have been excluded. The following have not yet been adopted and are being evaluated to determine their impact on the Company.

IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”) sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract, the customer (‘lessee’) and the supplier (‘lessor'). This standard will replace IAS 17 Leases (“IAS 17”) and related Interpretations. IFRS 16 provides revised guidance on identifying a lease and for separating lease and non-lease components of a contract. IFRS 16 introduces a single accounting model for all lessees and requires a lessee to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value, and depreciate lease assets separately from interest on lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of operations. IFRS 16 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted for entities that apply IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company’s contractual obligations in the form of operating leases under IAS 17 will then be reflected on the balance sheet resulting in an increase to both assets and liabilities upon adoption of IFRS 16, and changes to the timing of recognition of expenses associated with the lease arrangements.

IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (“IAS 8”) were amended in October 2018 to refine the definition of materiality and clarify its characteristics. The revised definition focuses on the idea that information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020.

Earlier adoption is permitted.

IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) was amended in October 2018 to clarify the definition of a business. This amended definition states that a business must include inputs and a process and clarified that the process must be substantive and the inputs and process must together significantly contribute to operating outputs. In addition it narrows the definitions of a business by focusing the definition of outputs on goods and services provided to customers and other income from ordinary activities, rather than on providing dividends or other economic benefits directly to investors or lowering costs and added a test that makes it easier to conclude that a company has acquired a group of assets, rather than a business, if the value of the assets acquired is substantially all concentrated in a single asset or group of similar assets. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. Earlier adoption is permitted.

IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”) and IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements (“IFRS 11”) were amended in December 2017. IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that when a party to a joint arrangement obtains control of a business that is a joint operation, it re-measures previously held interests in that business. IFRS 11 was amended to clarify that when a party that participates in, but does not have joint control of, a joint operation obtains joint control of a business that is a joint operation, the entity does not re-measure previously held interests in that business.

4. Reverse Takeover Transaction

Century and FV Pharma executed a definitive business combination agreement on March 9, 2018 (the "Definitive Agreement"), whereby FV Pharma would be combined with Century to continue the business of FV Pharma.

Under the terms of the Definitive Agreement, the Transaction was completed by way of a "three-cornered amalgamation" pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), whereby 2620756 Ontario Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Century amalgamated with FV Pharma (the "Amalgamation"), and the amalgamated entity is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Transaction”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Definitive Agreement and in connection with the Amalgamation:

• Century amended its articles to: (i) amend and designate its outstanding common shares (the "Existing Century Shares") as Class B subordinate voting shares (the "Century Class B Shares"); and (ii) create a new class of Class A multiple voting shares (the "Century Class A Shares");

• holders of outstanding Class A common voting shares of FV Pharma (the "FV Class A Shares") received one (1) Century Class A Share for each one (1) FV Class A Share held;

• holders of outstanding Class B common non-voting shares of FV Pharma (the "FV Class B Shares" and, together with the FV Class A Shares, the "FV Shares"), including FV Class B Shares issued on conversion of the Subscription Receipts, received one (1) Century Class B Share for each one (1) FV Class B Share held; and

• all outstanding options to purchase FV Pharma Class B shares and options to purchase Century shares were exchanged, on an equivalent basis, for options to purchase Class B shares of the Company, and all outstanding warrants to purchase FV Pharma Class B Shares and warrants to purchase Century shares were exchanged, on an equivalent basis, for warrants to purchase Class B shares of the Company.

The Transaction has been accounted for as a "reverse takeover" as the issuance of shares to the former shareholders of FV Pharma resulted in the former shareholders of FV Pharma holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. Under this method of accounting, FV Pharma (the legal subsidiary) is deemed to the acquirer and Century (the legal parent) is deemed to be the acquired company.

At acquisition date, a breakdown of the Transaction was as follows:

	Amount ($)

Exchange of Class B shares	9,868,179
Exchange of stock options	25,725
Exchange of warrants	118,875
Total consideration paid	10,012,779

Cash	2,041,501
Sales taxes recoverable	23,545
Accounts payable	(44,058	)
Net assets received	2,020,988

Listing expense	7,991,791

5. Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the reporting date and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. These financial statements include estimates that, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The following are the critical judgments and estimate areas that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements:

Business combinations

Judgment is used in determining whether an acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition.

Biological assets and inventory

In calculating the value of the biological assets and inventory, management is required to make a number of estimates, including estimating the stage of growth of the cannabis up to the point of harvest, harvesting costs, selling costs, average or expected selling prices and list prices, expected yields for the cannabis plants, and oil conversion factors. In calculating final inventory values, management compares the inventory cost to estimated net realizable value.

Estimated useful lives and depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment

Depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment is dependent upon estimates of useful lives and the determination as to when an items of property, plant and equipment is ready for use, which are determined through the exercise of judgment. The assessment of any impairment of these assets is dependent upon estimates of recoverable amounts that take into account factors such as economic and market conditions and the useful lives of assets.

Share-based payments

In calculating the share-based payments expense, key estimates such as the rate of forfeiture of options granted, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the Company’s stock price and the risk free interest rate are used. To calculate the share-based payments expense related to key employee performance milestones associated with the terms of an acquisition, the Company must estimate the number of shares that will be earned and when they will be issued based on estimated discounted probabilities.

Fair value of other investments not quoted in an active market or private company investments

Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded on the consolidated statement of financial position cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible, but where observable market data are not available, judgment is required to establish fair values. Refer to notes 6 and 8 for further details.

Income, value added, withholding and other taxes

The Company is subject to income, value added, withholding and other taxes. Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s provisions for taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. The determination of the Company’s income, value added, withholding and other tax liabilities requires interpretation of complex laws and regulations. The Company’s interpretation of taxation law as applied to transactions and activities may not coincide with the interpretation of the tax authorities. All tax related filings are subject to government audit and potential reassessment subsequent to the financial statement reporting period. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the tax related accruals and deferred income tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Recognition of deferred taxes

Deferred tax assets are recognized in respect of tax losses and other temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilized. Judgment is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognized, based upon the likely timing and level of future taxable profits, together with future tax planning strategies.

Restoration, rehabilitation and environmental obligations

Management's assumption of no material restoration, rehabilitation and environmental exposure, is based on the facts and circumstances that existed in the current and prior periods.

Contingencies

See note 17.

6. Financial instruments and risk exposures

Financial assets and financial liabilities were as follows:

		Assets/(liabilities) at
	Amortized	fair value through
	cost	profit/loss	Total
December 31, 2018	($)	($)	($)

Cash	21,134,930	-	21,134,930

Cash	4,739,988	-	4,739,988
Trade payables and accrued liabilities	-	1,265,996	1,265,996

As at December 31, 2018, other investments totaling $1,798,040 were classified as level 1, quoted market value, $251,115 were classified level 2, valuation based on observable market inputs, and $16,015,386 were classified as level 3, valuation technique with non-observable market inputs, within the fair value hierarchy. As at December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities recorded at fair value.

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. Risk management is carried out by the Company’s management with guidance from the Audit Committee. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk, currency or market risks arising from the financial instruments, except as described below.

Market price risk

The Company holds financial assets in the form of shares and warrants and options that are measured at FVTPL. The Company is exposed to market price risk on these financial assets.

Sensitivity analysis

The Company believes the sensitivity to a plus or minus 1% change in interest rates would not have a significant impact on the reported net loss for the year ended December 31 2018.

A 10% change in market prices related to the Company’s other investments would impact profit or loss by approximately $1,800,000 based on their estimated fair values at December 31, 2018.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due, or can only do so at excessive cost. The Company does not yet generate revenues from its principal operations and has been generating cash flows primarily from financing activities for the years ended December 31 2018 and 2017.

The following is an analysis of financial obligations based on their due dates:

accrued liabilities

There have been no significant changes to the Company's liquidity risk management policies during 2018 and 2017. See note 2 for discussion of going concern risk.

Considering the available liquidity as at December 31 2018, the expected burn rates from operations and future commitments, the Company's exposure to liquidity risk as at December 31 2018 is considered high. The Company expects to address this risk by raising funds through external financing as needed. See note 2.

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. All of the Company's cash is deposited with a highly-rated financial institution, and accordingly, management considers credit risk to be low. There have been no significant changes to the Company's credit risk management policies during 2018 and 2017.

The Company applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due.

The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is presented below. All receivables are current and are due within 30 days.

7. Capital management

The Company manages its capital with the following objectives:

• to ensure sufficient financial flexibility to achieve the ongoing business objectives including funding of future growth opportunities, and pursuit of accretive acquisitions; and

• to maximize shareholder return through enhancing the share value.

The Company monitors its capital structure and makes adjustments according to market conditions in an effort to meet its objectives given the current outlook of the business and industry in general. The Company may manage its capital structure by issuing new shares, repurchasing outstanding shares, adjusting capital spending, or disposing of assets. The capital structure is reviewed by management and the board of directors on an ongoing basis.

The Company considers its capital to be equity, comprising share capital, reserves and deficit.

The Company manages capital through its financial and operational forecasting processes. The Company reviews its working capital and forecasts its future cash flows based on operating expenditures, and other investing and financing activities. The forecast is updated based on activities related to its business activities.

The Company’s capital management objectives, policies and processes have remained substantially unchanged during 2018 and 2017.

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

8. Other investments

The Company currently holds interests in other companies related to the cannabis industry as follows:

		Fair value
		December 31 2018
		($)

Cannara Biotech Inc. (a)		11,215,395
Clover Cannastrip Thin Film Technologies Corp. (b)		1,500,000
High Tide Inc. (c)		2,049,155
HUGE Shops (d)		1,300,000
SciCann Therapeutics Inc. (e)		1,999,991

		18,064,541

The investment interests are being accounted for as portfolio investments at FVTPL as the Company has determined that does not exercise significant influence over the affairs of any of the investees.

As valuations of investments for which market quotations are not readily available, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate within short periods of time and are based on estimates, determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have resulted if a ready market existed for the investments. Given the size of the other investment portfolio, such changes may have a significant impact on the Company’s financial condition or operating results.

(a) Cannara Biotech Inc. (“Cannara”)

The Company’s investment in 85,003,750 Class B shares of Cannara are subject to an escrow arrangement with timed releases at various dates over a three-year period. Consequently, shares that are not subject to escrow are valued at market price and shares that are in escrow are subject to a discount rate. The valuation was based on a December 31, 2018 quoted market price of $0.18 per share, subject to an aggregate discount for the escrow conditions determined to be 26.7% ($4,084,605). This investment has been classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy – valuation technique with non-observable inputs.

(b) Clover Cannastrip Thin Film Technologies Corp.

The Company’s investment includes units comprising 7,500,000 shares and 3,750,000 warrants. The estimated fair value is based on a unit private financing on November 24, 2018. Management has determined that there are no reasonably possible alternative assumptions that would change the fair value significantly as at December 31, 2018. This investment has been classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy – valuation technique with non-observable inputs.

The investment includes 4,551,999 shares and 2,000,000 warrants. The fair value of the shares is based on the quoted market price of the shares at December 31, 2018, being $0.395 per share, or $1,798,040. The fair value of the warrants of $251,115 was based on the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: risk free rate 2%, expected volatility 130%, expected life 1.91 years and expected dividend yield of 0%. The shares have been classified as level 1 within the fair value hierarchy – quoted market price, and the warrants have been classified as level 2 – valuation technique with observable market inputs.

(d) HUGE Shops

The investment includes 17,333,333 shares based on the December 2018 subscription price of $0.075 per share. Management has determined that there are no reasonably possible alternative assumptions that would change the fair value significantly as at December 31, 2018. This investment has been classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy – valuation technique with non-observable inputs.

(e) SciCann Therapeutics Inc.

The investment includes 117,647 shares based on the subscription price in May and October 2018 of $17 per share. Management has determined that there are no reasonably possible alternative assumptions that would change the fair value significantly as at December 31, 2018. This investment has been classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy – valuation technique with non-observable inputs.

9. Property, plant and equipment

On November 9 2017, the Company purchased a plant which comprises its’ the facility at 520 William Street, Cobourg, Ontario for $5,500,000. The facility was acquired for the purpose of producing medical cannabis pursuant to its cultivation license under the ACMPR. Construction is required to prepare the facility for additional production capacity. The Company will commence depreciation on facility under development upon completion of its planned expansion to the growing area and upon commencement of commercial production.

The expected price volatilities were based on the average historic volatility of three similar companies, the historical price data for the Company is insufficient (based on the remaining life of the stock and compensation options), adjusted for any expected changes to future volatility due to publicly available information.

Options granted are accounted for by the fair value method of accounting for share-based payments. The Company records share-based payments expense over the vesting period and credits reserves for all options granted.

The expected volatility is based on management's estimate of the volatility in the Company's share price over the life of the options. The Company has not paid any cash dividends historically and does not have any plans to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of Canadian benchmark bonds with an equivalent term to maturity. The expected life of the options is based on management's estimate of the time that the options will be outstanding.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of the options outstanding at December 31, 2018 was 4.33 years (December 31, 2017 – 4.72 years).

To fund the development, Auxly purchased 7,500,000 Class B shares for the aggregate of $7,500,000 from the Company’s treasury by way of private placement, which funds were placed in trust to be spent on construction and development costs. The funds were placed in a trust account to be administered by Auxly. Due to the termination and subsequent negotiations, it is indeterminable at this point as to the amount, if any, of these funds will be released to the Company. As a result, the Company entered a provision for loss against the funds, which loss has been recognized in these consolidated financial statements. Should any funds be released to the Company, those amounts will be recognized in future periods as gains on recovery. No other provision has been recorded for this matter at December 31, 2018.
