SIGINIFICANT ACCOUTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
|
The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies, reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date of the consolidated financial statements and during the reporting period.
Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.
Information about critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:
|
●
|
Determination of functional currency
|
|
●
|
Determination of expected credit loss
|
|
●

In 2020, the Company received loans of $100,000 through Canadian Emergency Business Account Program (“CEBA Loan”), which provides financial relief for Canadian small business during the COVID-19 pandemic. The CEBA loan has an initial term date on December 31, 2021 (the “Initial Term Date”) and may be extended to December 31, 2025. The CEBA Loan is non-revolving, with an interest rate being 0% per annum prior to the initial Term Date. Repayment of principal is not required before December 31, 2022. The loan payments can be made at any time without fees or penalties. Repaying the balance of the CEBA loan on or before December 31, 2022 will result in a loan forgiveness of $30,000. During the period, the Company received $20,000 additional CEBA loan and loan forgiveness $10,000 has been recorded as a reduction of general and administrative expense.

Unlimited number of preference shares with no par value
Unlimited number of common shares with no par value
In December 2017, the Company amended its stock option plan (the “2017 Plan”). The 2017 Plan was established to provide an incentive to management (officers), employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. The maximum number of shares which may be reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan is limited to 7,105,838 shares less the number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to options granted under the 1996 Plan, the 2000 Plan, the 2005 Plan, the 2009 Plan and the 2011 Plan, provided that the Board of Directors of the Company has the right, from time to time, to increase such number subject to the approval of the relevant exchange on which the shares are listed and the approval of the shareholders of the Company.
The maximum number of common shares that may be reserved for issuance to any one person under the 2017 Plan is 5% of the common shares outstanding at the time of the grant (calculated on a non-diluted basis) less the number of shares reserved for issuance to such person under any option to purchase common shares of the Company granted as a compensation or incentive mechanism.

The weighted average remaining contractual life for the stock options outstanding as at September 30, 2021 was 0.29 years (2020 – 0.9 years, 2010 –1.77 years). The range of exercise prices for the stock options outstanding as at September 30, 2021 was $0.05 - $0.13 (2020- $0.05 - $0.23 , 2019 - $$0.07-$0.23). The weighted average grant-date fair value of options granted to management, employees, directors and consultants in February 2020 was estimated at $0.0355 (2020 - $0.0355, 2019 - $0.0519) using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The estimated fair value of the options granted is expensed immediately.
The pricing model assumes the weighted average risk free interest rates of 1.37% (2010 – 1.37%, 2019 – 2.19%) weighted average expected dividend yields of nil (2020 – nil, 2019 – nil), the weighted average expected common stock price volatility (based on historical trading) of 123% (2020 – 123%, 2019 – 105%), a forfeiture rate of 0% (2020 – 0%, 2019 – 0%), a weighted average stock price of $0.05 (2020 - $0.20, 2019 - $0.07), a weighted average exercise price of $0.05 (2020 - $0.05, 2019 - $0.07), and a weighted average expected life of 3 years (2020 – 2.85 years, 2019 – 2.85 years), which were estimated based on past experience with options and option contract specifics.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont’d)

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian Dollar and the Company’s net investments in foreign subsidiaries.
The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk as certain expenditures are denominated in non-Canadian Dollar currencies.
The Company has been exposed to this fluctuation and has not implemented a program against these foreign exchange fluctuations.
A 10% strengthening of the US Dollar against the Canadian Dollar would have increased the net equity approximately by $97,025 (2020 ‑ $79,357) due to reduction in the value of net liability balance. A 10% of weakening of the US Dollar against the Canadian Dollar at September 30, 2021 would have had the equal but opposite effect. The significant financial instruments of the Company, their carrying values and the exposure to other denominated monetary assets and liabilities, as of September 30, 2021 are as follows:

The Company manages its liquidity risk by preparing and monitoring forecasts of cash expenditures to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities generally have maturities of less than 90 days. On September 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $1,184,547, accounts and grants receivable of $1,013,424 and prepaid and other receivables of $113,605 to settle current liabilities of $424,211.
Credit risk refers to the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the
counterparty by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is primarily exposed to credit risk through accounts receivable. The maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the reported amounts of these financial assets. Credit risk is managed by ongoing review of the amount and aging of accounts receivable balances. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has outstanding trade receivables of $848,424 (2020 - $249,383). New impairment requirements use an 'expected credit loss' ('ECL') model to recognize an allowance. Impairment is measured using a 12-month ECL method unless the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition in which case the lifetime ECL method is adopted. For receivables, a simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses using a lifetime expected loss allowance is available. The Company deposits its cash with high credit quality financial institutions, with the majority deposited within Canadian Tier 1 Banks.

The Company had sales to a major customer in the period ended on September 30, 2021 and on September 30, 2020, a government agency of the People’s Republic of China. The total percentage of sales to this customer during the period was 68% (2020 – 79%) and the total percentage of accounts receivable on September 30, 2021 was 97% (2020 – 86%).
The Company’s primary objectives when managing capital are to (a) safeguard the Company’s ability to develop, market, distribute and sell English language learning products, and (b) provide a sound capital structure for raising capital at a reasonable cost for the funding of ongoing development of its products and new growth initiatives. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain future development of the business.
The Company includes equity, comprised of issued share capital, warrants, share-based payments reserve and deficit, in the definition of capital. The Company is dependent on cash flow from co-publishing and distribution agreements and external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out planned development of its products and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There has been no change to the Company’s capital management from the approach used in 2021 or in 2020.

Since December 31, 2019, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,” has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions.
The extent to which COVID-19 and any other pandemic or public health crisis impacts the Company’s business, affairs, operations, financial condition, liquidity, availability of credit and results of operations will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with any meaningful precision, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 virus and the actions required to contain the COVID-19 virus or remedy its impact, among others. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company and its operating subsidiaries in future periods.
