INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

F. 416.480.2646
   

To the Shareholders of Micromem Technologies Inc.:

www.collinsbarrow.com

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Micromem Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at October 31, 2012, October 31, 2011 and November 1, 2010 and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Micromem Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries as at October 31, 2012, October 31, 2011 and November 1, 2010, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Emphasis of Matter

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2 in the consolidated financial statements which describes the material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about Micromem Techonologies Inc.’s ability to continue as a going concern.

REPORTING ENTITY AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

   

Micromem Technologies Inc. (“Micromem” or the “Company”) is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. The principal business address of the Company is 121 Richmond Street West, Suite 304, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

   

The Company currently operates as a developer of magnetic sensor technology and applications of this technology. The Company has not generated revenue through October 31, 2012 and is devoting substantially all of its efforts to the development of its technologies.

   

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly- owned subsidiaries:


  (i)

Micromem Applied Sensors Technology, Inc. (“MAST”) incorporated in November 2007 and domiciled in Delaware, United States. MAST has the primary responsibility for the further development of the Company’s technologies in conjunction with various strategic development partners.

     
  (ii)

7070179 Canada Inc., incorporated in October 2008 under the Canada Business Corporations Act in Ontario, Canada. The Company has assigned to this entity its rights, title and interests in certain patents which it previously held, directly in exchange for common shares of this entity.

GOING CONCERN

   

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the “going concern” basis in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

   

There are material uncertainties related to adverse conditions and events that cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time in future. During the year ended October 31, 2012, the Company reported a net loss and comprehensive loss of $1,775,065 (2011: $3,182,387) a working capital deficiency (current assets less current liabilities excluding derivative warrant liability) (Note 15) of $731,673 (2011: $1,060,487) (2010: $1,459,460) and negative cash flow from operations of $2,573,982 (2011: $1,453,508).

   

The Company continues to focus its development efforts on existing projects in order to develop commercial applications for these projects. It will be necessary for the Company to raise additional funds for the continued development, testing and commercial exploitation of its technologies. To date, the Company has raised financing through successive unit private placements, through the exercise of common share stock options and through the exercise of common share purchase warrants. It has also secured periodic bridge loans.

   

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of the assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in business. If the “going concern” assumption were not appropriate for these consolidated financial statements then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used. Such adjustments may be material.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION


  a)

Statement of compliance:

     
 

Effective January 1, 2011, all Canadian publicly accountable enterprises are required to prepare their financial statements using IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and as adopted by the Accounting Standards Board of Canada (“AcSB”).

     
 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and its interpretations adopted by IASB. These are the Company’s first annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS and IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS 1”).

     
 

IFRS 1 requires that an entity’s accounting policies used in its opening statement of financial position and throughout all periods presented in its first IFRS financial statements comply with IFRS effective at the end of its first IFRS reporting period. Accordingly the IFRS issued and effective as at October 31, 2012 have been applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended October 31, 2012, the comparative information presented as at and for the year ended October 31, 2011 and in the preparation of the opening IFRS statement of financial position as at November 1, 2010. The impact of the transition to IFRS for the comparative information is presented in notes 6 and 7.

     
 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”) until October 31, 2011. Canadian GAAP differs in some areas from IFRS standards. In preparing October 31, 2012, consolidated financial statements, management has amended certain accounting, recognition and measurement methods and disclosures applied in the previous Canadian GAAP financial statements to comply with IFRS standards.

     
  b)

Basis of measurement:

     
 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments designated at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Cont’d)


  c)

Functional and presentation currency:

     
 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars (“U.S. dollars”), which is also the Company’s functional currency.

     
  d)

Use of estimates and judgments:

     
 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, 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 assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment are as follows:


  i)

The Company makes estimates and utilizes assumptions in determining the fair value for stock based compensation expense, warrants, the (gain) loss on the revaluation of the derivative warrant liability, the (gain) loss on the revaluation of the embedded derivatives relating to bridge loans and the bifurcation of convertible debt.

     
  ii)

The Company makes estimates related to the recovery of deferred development costs based on the expectation and assumption of realizing revenues from future commercial agreements that it anticipates will develop with the companies for whom these projects have been undertaken. Changes in these expectations and assumptions could result in a change in the recoverable amount calculated.

     
  iii)

The Company makes estimates related to the useful lives of property and equipment, patents and intangible assets and the related amortization. The Company also periodically assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets. The recoverability analysis requires the Company to make assumptions about future operations. Changes to one or more assumptions would result in a change in the recoverable amount calculated and/or amortization expensed.

  d)

Use of estimates and judgments: (Cont’d)


  iv)

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that may occur if parties are unable to pay balances owing to the Company. This allowance is determined based on a review of specific parties’ historical experience and economic circumstances.

     
  v)

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilized. At October 31, 2012, the Company has assessed that it is not probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to use deferred income tax assets based on operating losses in prior years, therefore, there are no balances carried in the consolidated statements of financial position for such assets. In addition, the valuation of investment tax credits receivable requires management to make judgments on the amount and timing of recovery.

     
  vi)

The Company applies judgment in assessing whether material uncertainties exist that would cause significant doubt as to the whether the Company could continue as a going concern.

     
  vii)

The Company applies judgment in assessing the functional currency of each entity consolidated in these financial statements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


  a)

Basis of consolidation:

     
 

Subsidiaries are legal entities controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date control ceases.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)


  a)

Basis of consolidation: (Cont’d)

     
 

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Company’s subsidiaries.

     
  b)

Foreign currency translation:

     
 

IFRS requires that the functional currency of each entity in the consolidated entity be determined separately in accordance with specific indicators and should be measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). As a result of an assessment of the primary indicators, management assessed the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries to be U.S. dollar (“USD”). The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared and presented using the USD.

     
 

Foreign currency transactions denominated in other than U.S. dollars are translated into the functional currency on the following basis:


  i)

Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the statement of financial position date.

     
  ii)

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

     
  iii)

Income and expenses for each income statement line item presented are translated at average exchange rates during the quarter in which they are recognized.

Exchange differences resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized directly in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which incurred.

  c)

Financial Instruments: Recognition, Measurement, Disclosure and Presentation:

     
 

The Company initially recognizes loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) are recognized initially on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

     
 

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire.

     
 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position only when the Company has the legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

     
 

The Company has the following financial assets: cash, deposits and other receivables and promissory note receivable.

     
 

All financial assets and financial liabilities, including derivatives, are initially measured in the statement of financial position at fair value, except for loans and receivables, investments held-to maturity and other financial liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost. Measurement in subsequent periods depends on whether the financial instrument had been classified as FVTPL, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, or other liabilities.

     
 

FVTPL financial assets are measured at fair value and all gains and losses are included in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise. Available- for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value with revaluation gains and losses included in other comprehensive income until the assets are removed from the statement of financial position.

  c)

Financial Instruments: Recognition, Measurement, Disclosure and Presentation: (Cont’d)

     
 

The Company classifies cash as FVTPL. Deposits and other receivables and promissory note receivable are classified as loans and receivables, and are initially measured at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and bridge loans are classified as other liabilities, and initially measured at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The derivative warrant liability and embedded derivatives in bridge loans are classified at FVTPL and are measured at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

     
  d)

Compound Financial Instruments

     
 

Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible notes that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder and the number of shares to be issued does not vary with changes in their fair value.

     
 

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option.

     
 

The equity component, if the conversion feature of the convertible note is in US dollars, is recognized initially as the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

     
 

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not remeasured subsequent to initial recognition.

     
 

Interest, dividends, losses and gains relating to the financial liability are recognized in profit or loss except for borrowing costs on qualifying assets which are added to asset cost. Distributions to the equity holders are recognized in equity, net of any tax effect.

  e)

Hybrid Financial Instruments:

     
 

Financial instruments with embedded derivative liabilities are accounted for as hybrid financial instruments. The Company has hybrid financial instruments when the embedded derivative conversion option right of the convertible notes gives the right to the holder to convert into a common share in Canadian dollars (“CDN”).

     
 

An embedded derivative is a feature within a contract, such that the cash flows associated with that feature behave in a similar fashion to a stand-alone derivative. An embedded derivative is separated from its host contract and accounted for as a derivative only when three criteria are satisfied:

  • When the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded derivatives are not closely related to those of the host contract;

  • A separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and

  • The entire instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the income statement.

 

Subsequent to initial recognition, the embedded derivative component is re-measured each reporting period using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the change in fair value recognized in statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

     
  f)

Derivative Liability

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of derivative liabilities in relation to its share purchase warrants and the conversion feature on its bridge loans.

  f)

Derivative Liability (Cont’d)


  i)

Derivative Warrant Liability:

     
 

The Company issues share purchase warrants in conjunction with private placements for the purchase of common shares of the Company. A number of these share purchase warrants were issued with an exercise price in CDN, rather than USD (the reporting and functional currency of the Company). Such share purchase warrants are considered to be derivative instruments and the Company is required to re-measure the fair value of these at each reporting date. The fair value of these CDN share purchase warrants are re-measured at each financial position date using the Black Scholes option-pricing model using the exchange rates at the financial position date and measured over their remaining life. Adjustments to the fair value of the derivative warrant liability as at the financial position date are recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative warrant liability. Share purchase warrants that have expired or have been forfeited are adjusted to the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative warrant liability.

     
 

Consideration received upon the exercise of warrants is credited to share capital and the related amount is transferred from contributed surplus (USD warrants) or derivative warrant liability to share capital (CDN warrants).

     
  ii)

Conversion Feature of Bridge Loans

     
 

The conversion feature on the bridge loans allows the holder of the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest from time to time to common equity. The Company, using the Black Scholes option-pricing model, accounts for bridge loans as follows:


  (i)

At date of origination the bifurcation of the total balance of the loan as debt and equity is calculated. If the conversion feature of the bridge loan is in CDN there is no equity component, resulting in an embedded derivative. Accretion expense is recorded over the term of the loan.

     
  (ii)

The total loan proceeds are allocated between the bridge loans and the related embedded derivative based on their relative fair value. The embedded derivative conversion feature is included under the bridge loans in the statement of financial position.

  (iii)

The conversion feature is revalued at the end of the reporting period and any adjustment is reflected in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss if the conversion feature is in CDN.


  g)

Loan Impairment:

     
 

Impaired loans are accounted for at their face amount net of the allowance for loan impairment. When a loan is deemed to be impaired, its carrying amount is reduced to its estimated realizable amount which is measured by discounting the expected future cash flows at the effective interest rate inherent in the loan. The amount initially recognized as an impairment loan, together with any subsequent change, is charged to the allowance as an adjustment. A write-off of the loan will occur when the loan is believed to have no reasonable expectation of collectability.

     
  h)

Intangible Assets

     
 

Costs for the general development of the Company’s sensor technology are expensed unless they meet the criteria for deferral. Expenditures are capitalized if the Company can demonstrate each of the following criteria: (i) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, (ii) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it, (iii) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset, (iv) how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits, (v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset, and (vi) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development; otherwise, they are expensed as incurred. Commencing in 2011, the Company determined that these costs met the criteria and, accordingly, these costs have been capitalized and are tested in each reporting period for impairment. Amortization is provided on a 7 year straight-line basis.

     
  i)

Property and Equipment:

     
 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates and methods:


  Computers 30% declining balance basis
  Office equipment 30% declining balance basis

  j)

Impairment of Long-lived Assets:

     
 

Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment, patents, intangible assets, and deferred development costs.

     
 

The carrying amounts of property and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of patents, intangible assets and deferred development costs are tested for impairment annually. When the carrying amount exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the assets are written down to their recoverable amount.

     
 

The recoverable amount of long-lived assets is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

     
 

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Following the recognition or reversal of an impairment loss, the amortization charge applicable to the asset is adjusted prospectively in order to systematically allocate the revised carrying amount, net of any residual value, over the estimated useful life.

     
 

Gains or losses on the disposal of property and equipment, patents and intangible assets represent the difference between the net proceeds and the carrying value at the date of sale.

  k)

Research and Development Costs:

     
 

Research costs are expensed in the period incurred. Development costs are expensed as incurred unless they meet the criteria for deferral. Expenditures during the development phase are capitalized if the Company can demonstrate each of the following criteria: (i) the technical feasibility of completing the asset so that it will be available for use or sale, (ii) its intention to complete the asset and use or sell it, (iii) its ability to use or sell the asset, (iv) how the asset will generate probable future economic benefits, (v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the asset, and (vi) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the asset during its development; otherwise, these costs are expensed as incurred. Commencing in 2009, the Company determined that its continuing activities related to the application of its sensor technology met the deferral criteria and, accordingly, these costs have been capitalized and are tested in each reporting period for recoverability. Development costs will be amortized on an appropriate basis at the time the Company enters commercial production.

     
 

Investment tax credits (ITCs) arising from research and development are recognized when their realization is reasonably assured. The ITCs are applied against the related deferred costs and expenditures in the year that they are incurred.

     
  l)

Patents:

     
 

Patents are recorded at cost and are amortized on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives of 5 years. Patents are recorded net of accumulated amortization with amortization expense capitalized as deferred development costs since the patents are directly related to development.

     
  m)

Unit Private Placements:

     
 

The Company uses the relative fair value approach in accounting for the value assigned to the common shares and the common share purchase warrants which it had made available in the unit private placement financings that it secured, calculated in accordance with the Black Scholes option-pricing model.

  n)

Stock based Compensation and Other Stock based Payments:

     
 

The Company applies the fair value based method of accounting for all stock based payments to employees and non-employees and all direct awards of stock. For non- employees, stock based payments are measured at the fair value of the services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. Stock based compensation is charged to operations over the vesting period and the offset is credited to contributed surplus.

     
 

Consideration received upon the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital and the related amount is transferred from contributed surplus.

     
 

The fair value of stock options and warrants is determined by the Black Scholes option- pricing model with assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividend yields, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company’s common shares and an expected life of the option or warrant issued. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is adjusted to reflect the actual number as options that vest. In the event that vested stock options expire, previously recognized stock based compensation is not reversed. In the event that stock options are forfeited, previously recognized stock based compensation associated with the unvested portion of the stock options forfeited is reversed. The fair value of direct awards of stock is determined by the quoted market price of the Company’s stock.

     
  o)

Income Taxes:

     
 

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

     
 

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont’d)


  o)

Income Taxes:

     
 

Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable income or loss and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

     
 

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

     
 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

     
 

A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

     
  p)

Earnings or Loss Per Share:

     
 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by adjusting the weighted average number of number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which are comprised of outstanding warrants, conversion options and vested stock options. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share assumes that any proceeds received for in-the-money warrants and options would be used to buy common shares at the average market price for the period.

NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED

   

Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) that are mandatory for future accounting periods. The standards impacted that are applicable to the Company are as follows:


  a)

IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments, was issued in November 2009 and contained requirements for financial assets. This standard addresses classification and measurement of financial assets and replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement, for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories:

  • Amortized cost and

  • Fair value through profit and loss

IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments, and such instruments are either recognized at fair value through earnings or at fair value through other comprehensive income. Where such equity instruments are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, dividends, to the extent not clearly representing a return of investment, are recognized in earnings; however, other gains and losses (including impairments) associated with such instruments remain in accumulated other comprehensive income indefinitely.

Requirements for financial liabilities were added in October 2010 and largely carried forward existing requirements in IAS 39, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement, except that fair value changes due to credit risk for liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss would generally be recorded in other comprehensive income.

This standard is required to be applied for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, with earlier adoption permitted.

NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED (Cont’d)


  b)

IFRS 10 – Consolidated Financial Statements, requires an entity to consolidate an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Under existing IFRS, consolidation is required when an entity has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain live entertainment from its activities. IFRS 10 replaces SIC-12, Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities and parts of IAS 27, Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.

     
 

This standard is required to be applied for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with earlier adoption permitted.

     
  c)

IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements, requires a venturer to classify its interest in a joint arrangement as a joint venture or joint operation. Joint ventures will be accounted for using the equity method of accounting whereas for a joint operation the venturer will recognize its share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of the joint operation. Under existing IFRS, entities have the choice to proportionately consolidate or equity account for interests in joint ventures. IFRS 11 supersedes IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC- 13, Jointly Controlled Entities—Nonmonetary Contributions by Venturers.

     
 

This standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with early adoption permitted.

     
  d)

IFRS 12 – Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, such as joint arrangements, associates, special purpose vehicles and off balance sheet vehicles. The standard carries forward existing disclosures and also introduces significant additional disclosure requirements that address the nature of, and risks associated with, an entity’s interests in other entities.

     
 

This standard is required to be applied for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted.

NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED (Cont’d)


  e)

IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement, is a comprehensive standard for fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across all IFRS standards. The new standard clarifies that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, at the measurement date. It also establishes disclosures about fair value measurement. Under existing IFRS, guidance on measuring and disclosing fair value is dispersed among the specific standards requiring fair value measurements and in many cases does not reflect a clear measurement basis or consistent disclosures.

     
 

This standard is required to be applied for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with earlier adoption permitted.

     
  f)

In addition, there have been amendments to existing standards including IAS 27, Separate Financial Statements, and IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. IAS 27 addresses accounting for subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates in non - consolidated financial statements. IAS 28 has been amended to include joint ventures in its scope and to address the changes in IFRS 10 to IFRS 12.

     
 

This standard is required to be applied for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with earlier adoption permitted provided that IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 are adopted at the same time.

The Company is currently assessing the impact of the above standards.

CONVERSION TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

   

In February 2008, the AcSB confirmed that the use of IFRS will be required in 2011 for publicly accountable enterprises in Canada. In April, 2008, the AcSB issued an IFRS Omnibus Exposure Draft proposing that publicly accountable enterprises be required to apply IFRS, in full and without modification, on January 1, 2011. The adoption date of January 1, 2011 requires the restatement, for comparative purposes, of amounts reported by the Company for its year ended October 31, 2011, and of the opening statement of financial position as at November 1, 2010.

   

The accounting policies disclosed in Note 4 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2012, the comparative information presented in these financial statements as at October 31, 2011 and for the year then ended, and in the preparation of the opening IFRS statement of financial position at November 1, 2010.

   

Elections on adoption:

   

IFRS 1 allows first time adopters to IFRS to take advantage of a number of voluntary exemptions from the general principal of retrospective restatement. The Company has taken the following exemptions:

   

IFRS 2 – Share-based payments (“IFRS 2”):

   

The Company elected not to apply IFRS 2 to equity instruments granted after November 7, 2002 which vested before the transition date. Accordingly, the Company has applied IFRS 2 only to unvested stock options outstanding as at November 1, 2010. All stock options outstanding as at November 1, 2010 were fully vested and no adjustment is required.

   

IAS 21 – The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates (“IAS 21”):

   

The Company elected to deem the cumulative currency translation difference for all foreign operations to be zero at November 1, 2010. As a result, no other comprehensive income is presented at November 1, 2010.

   

IFRS 3 – Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”):

   

The Company has elected to apply the exemption for retrospective application of IFRS 3 to business combinations that took place before the transition date. Accordingly, all business combinations after November 1, 2010 will be accounted in accordance with IFRS 3.

Estimates:

   

The Company’s consolidated financial statements were previously prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Under IFRS, hindsight is not used to create or revise estimates. The estimates previously made by the Company under Canadian GAAP were not revised for application of IFRS except where necessary to reflect any difference in accounting policies.

   

Reconciliations from Canadian GAAP to IFRS:

   

In preparing its opening IFRS statement of financial position, statement of loss and comprehensive loss, statement of cash flows and statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, the Company has determined that adjustments were necessary to amounts reported previously in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. Therefore, reconciliations of the consolidated financial statements prepared under Canadian GAAP to IFRS have been presented in Note 7. The first-time adoption of IFRS did not have a material impact on the Company’s total operating, investing or financing cash flows.

   

In preparing the opening IFRS statement of financial position, the Company has adjusted amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. These adjustments relate to:


  a)

The accounting and measurement of the derivative warrant liability with respect to common share purchase warrants (Note 15) issued in conjunction with unit private placement financings which the Company has secured and which are not exercisable in the relevant entity’s functional currency.

     
  b)

The accounting and measurement of the conversion feature of the bridge loans (Note 16) which the Company has secured which are not convertible in the relevant entity’s functional currency.

The illustration of how the transition from Canadian GAAP to IFRS has affected the Company’s financial position and financial performance is set out in Note 7 below.

RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO IFRS (Cont’d)

   

Reconciliation of Bridge loans: (Cont’d)

   

Bridge loan 3 allowed the holder the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest into common equity in CDN. As a result bridge loan 3 has an embedded derivative. The principal amount of this loan previously reported was split between the principal and embedded derivative portions (Note 16). Due to the split, accretion expense on the principal portion increased by $11,280. The embedded derivative portion was revalued at October 31, 2011 resulting in a loss on revaluation of embedded derivative in the amount of $1,979. The equity portion of $558 previously recognized for this loan and the fair value of CDN warrants recorded on this loan on the amount of $6 were reallocated to administration expense as their amount was nominal.

Under IFRS, warrants with an exercise price not in the functional currency of the Company are presented as a derivative warrant liability and remeasured at each period end. At November 1, 2011, the Company reallocated the fair value of the CDN warrants of amount of $165,668 from contributed surplus to derivative warrants liability. The Company then revalued these CDN warrants at November 1, 2010 resulting in a gain on revaluation of $97,461. At October 31, 2011, the Company reallocated the fair value of the CDN warrants of $699,900 from contributed surplus to derivative warrant liability. The Company then revalued these CDN warrants at October 31, 2011 resulting in a loss on revaluation of $410,584.

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

   

The following summarizes the methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Company's financial instruments where measurement is required. The fair value of financial instruments consisting of cash, deposits and other receivables, promissory note receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and bridge loans approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short period to maturity. Fair value amounts represent point-in-time estimates and may not reflect fair value in the future. The measurements are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and are a matter of significant judgment. The methods and assumptions used to develop fair value measurements, for those financial instruments where fair value is recognized in the statement of financial position, have been prioritized into three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

   

Level 1: Values based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.

   

Level 2: Values based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

   

Level 3: Values based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

   

The Company's financial instruments measured at fair value on the statement of financial position date consist of cash, derivative warrant liability and the conversion feature on bridge loans. Cash is measured at Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Derivative warrant liability and the conversion feature on bridge loans are measured at Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

   

The Company’s objective when managing capital is to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

The Company’s primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure that it has sufficient cash resources to further develop and market its technologies and to maintain its ongoing operations. To secure the additional capital necessary to pursue these plans, the Company may attempt to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity and warrants or by securing strategic partners. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and there has been no change with respect to the overall capital risk management strategy during the year ended October 31, 2012.

SHARE CAPITAL, STOCK OPTIONS AND LOSS PER SHARE (Cont’d)


  c)

Loss Per Share

     
 

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the year ended October 31, 2012 was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders of $1,775,065 (2011 - $3,182,387) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 123,375,510 (2011 – 102,301,168).

     
 

Diluted loss per share did not include the effect of 9,915,000 stock options and 19,692,968 warrants outstanding and the potential conversion of bridge loans as they are anti-dilutive.

BRIDGE LOANS


  (a)

On March 31, 2010 the Company secured a 180 day convertible bridge loan (“Loan 1”) from an arm’s length investor in the amount of $250,000 CDN. The interest rate on the loan was established at 4% per month (effective interest rate – 48%). The principal and interest of the loan was convertible at $0.55 USD per share at the holder’s option. The Company provided 12,500 common share purchase warrants to acquire common shares at a strike price of $0.50 USD per share. As a result, net proceeds of $220 were allocated to warrants. The loan was originally due in October 2010. At October 31, 2010, the note remained outstanding and interest was accrued at the stated rate of 4% per month compounded monthly. On December 17, 2010, the Company renegotiated the loan, extending the terms to June 17, 2011 and bearing interest at 2% per month compounded monthly. An additional 20,000 common share purchase warrants were issued in conjunction with the renegotiation. No value was assigned to these warrants as their value was nominal. The conversion feature for this loan was reduced from $0.55 USD to $0.20 USD. As a result of the change in conversion, a value of $158,567 was recorded to deficit with an offsetting charge to contributed surplus to reflect the value of the more favourable conversion feature.

An additional 20,000 common share purchase warrants were issued in conjunction with the renegotiation. No value was assigned to these warrants as their value was nominal. The conversion feature of this loan remained unchanged at $0.20 USD. This loan was repaid in October 2011.

     
  (b)

BRIDGE LOANS (Cont’d)

   

The fair value of the embedded derivatives for which the conversion price is in CDN was estimated on initial recognition using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:


    2012 2011
  Share price $0.15 - $0.27 $ 0.20
  Volatility factor (based on historical volatility) 126 - 156% 1.11
  Risk free interest rate 0.93 - 0.94% 0.02
  Dividend yield 0% 0%
  Expected life 6 months 6 months

The embedded derivative at October 31, 2012 was revalued for loans outstanding in which the conversion price is in CDN using the following underlying assumptions in the Black Scholes option-pricing model:

    2012 2011
  Share price $ 0.21 $ 0.17
  Volatility factor (based on historical volatility) 79% 1.35
  Risk free interest rate 1% 0.01
  Dividend yield 0% 0%
  Expected life 0.34 years 0.25 years

During the year, loan 7 and a portion of loan 8 were settled by the holder converting their amount outstanding with the Company issuing 1,860,080 common share with an assigned value of $226,900. As a result of the conversion, the holder received 1,860,080 common share purchase warrants exercisable at a price of $0.12 - $0.20 CDN for a period of 1 year. These common share purchase warrants were valued at $306,061 using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions.

    2012

CONTINGENCIES

   

The Company has agreed to indemnify its directors and officers and certain of its employees in accordance with the Company’s by-laws. The Company maintains insurance policies that may provide coverage against certain claims.

   
23.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT


  (a)

Financial Risk Management

     
 

The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks by virtue of its activities: market risk (including foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk) and liquidity risk. The overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on financial performance. Risk management is carried out under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Management is charged with the responsibility of establishing controls and procedures to ensure that financial risks are mitigated in accordance with the approved policies.

     
  (b)

Market Risk:


  i.

Foreign Exchange Risk:

     
 

The Company currently incurs expenses in Canadian dollars. The total monetary financial instruments are in a net liabilities position. Management monitors the Canadian net liability position on a periodic basis throughout the course of the year and adjusts the total net monetary liability balance accordingly.

     
 

The consolidated financial statements include balances that are denominated in Canadian dollars as follows:


      2012     2011     2010  
  Cash and cash equivalents $  263,383   $  20,238   $  4,681  
  Deposits and other receivable   46,016     21,467     89,238  
  Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   267,098     496,597     1,063,456  
  Bridge loan   159,902     103,733     450,000

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Cont’d)


  (b)

Market Risk: (Cont’d)


  ii.

Foreign Exchange Risk:

     
 

A 10% strengthening of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar would have increased the net equity by $10,695 (2011 – $55,862) due to a reduction in the value of net liability balance. A 10% weakening of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar at October 31, 2012 would have had the equal but opposite effect.

     
  iii.

Interest Rate Risk:

     
 

Cash flow interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flow of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.

     
 

Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company’s cash and promissory note receivable earn interest at market rates. The Company manages its interest rate risk by maximizing the interest income earned on excess funds while maintaining the liquidity necessary to conduct operations on a day-to-day basis. Fluctuations in market rates of interest may have an impact on the Company’s results of operations.

     
 

The Company is exposed to interest price risk on its interest bearing bridge loans as the interest rate is fixed.


  (c)

Liquidity Risk:

     
 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they fall due.

     
 

The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. Senior management is actively involved in the review and approval of planned expenditures.

     
 

All financial liabilities are due within 1 year from the balance sheet at October 31, 2012.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Cont’d)


  (d)

Credit Risk:

     
 

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, deposit and other receivables. The carrying amount of financial assets represents maximum credit exposure.

     
 

As at October 31, 2012, the Company reports a working capital deficiency of $731,673 (measured as current assets less current liabilities excluding the derivative warrant liability) and has certain financial commitments (Notes 20 and 21), the majority of which are due within one year. It must continue to raise financing in order to meet its current obligations.
