Engine Gaming and Media, Inc. (formerly Engine Media Holdings, Inc.) Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Expressed in United States Dollars) |
|
| 1. | Corporate information and going concern |
| (a) | Corporate information |
Engine Gaming and Media Inc. (formerly Engine Media Holdings, Inc.) (“Engine” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) on April 8, 2011. The registered head office of the Company is 77 King St. West, Suite 3000, PO Box 95, TD Centre – North Tower, Toronto, Ontario, M5K 1G8, Canada.
Pursuant to shareholder approval at the October 6, 2021, shareholders’ meeting, effective October 19, 2021, the Company changed its name to Engine Gaming and Media, Inc. The Company’s common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the trading symbol GAME.V and NASDAQ under the trading symbol GAME.
The Company focuses on accelerating new, live, immersive esports and interactive gaming experiences for consumers through its partnerships with traditional and emerging media companies and providing online interactive technology and monetization services.
| (b) | Going concern |
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, and therefore be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Such adjustments could be material. It is not possible to predict whether the Company will be able to raise adequate financing or to ultimately attain profit levels of operations.
The
Company has not yet realized profitable operations and has incurred significant losses to date resulting in a cumulative deficit of $
These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, the Company may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

|
| 2. | Basis of preparation |
| (a) | Statement of compliance |
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements required by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on a basis consistent with the accounting policies disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2021; and should be read in conjunction with those audited consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the fiscal year.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on April 13, 2022.
| (b) | Basis of consolidation |
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Consolidated financial statements are prepared using uniform accounting policies for like transactions and other events in similar circumstances.
All transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealized gains and losses on transactions between companies. Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Company’s interest in the investee. Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
The Company’s material subsidiaries as of February 28, 2022, are as follows:
| Name of Subsidiary |
|
Country of Incorporation | Ownership Percentage |
Functional Currency | ||
Non-controlling interests are measured initially at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the date of acquisition. Changes in the Group’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

|
| (c) | Functional and presentation currency |
The functional currency of the Company is the US Dollar (“USD). The functional currencies of the Company’s subsidiaries are disclosed in Note 2(b). The presentation currency of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements is the US Dollar (“USD”).
| (d) | Income taxes |
The Company had no income tax expense for the three and six months ended February 28, 2022, and 2021. As of February 28, 2022, deferred tax assets have not been recognized because it has not been determined as probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Company can utilize the benefits therefrom.
| 3. | Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions |
The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as at the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgments and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Management uses historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the given circumstances as the basis for its judgments and estimates. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. Significant estimates and judgments made by management in the preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are outlined below.
The assessment of the Company’s ability to execute its strategy by funding future working capital requirements involves judgment. Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. There is a material uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

|
| (a) | Significant estimates and critical judgments |
Information about significant estimates and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements is included in the following notes:
| Note 1 | Going concern; | |
| Note 25 | Expected credit losses; | |
| Note 16 | Valuation of warrant liability; | |
| Notes 9 and 10 | Goodwill and intangible assets; | |
| Notes 18 and 19 | Valuation of share-based payments; | |
| Note 15 | Valuation of convertible debt; and | |
| Note 21 | Contingencies. |
| (b) | Uncertainty about the effects of COVID-19 |
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) emerged and has since extensively impacted global health and the economic environment. To contain the spread of COVID-19, domestic and international governments around the world enacted various measures, including orders to close all businesses not deemed “essential,” quarantine orders for individuals to stay in their homes or places of residence, and to practice social distancing when engaging in essential activities. The Company anticipates that these actions and the global health crisis caused by COVID-19 will continue to negatively impact many business activities and financial markets across the globe.
In an effort to protect the health and safety of our employees, much of the Company’s workforce is currently working from home. The Company has implemented business continuity plans and has increased support and resources to enable employees to work remotely and thus far has been able to operate with minimal disruption.
The global COVID-19 pandemic remains an evolving situation. The Company will continue to actively monitor the developments of the pandemic and may take further actions that could alter business operations as may be required by federal, state, local, or foreign authorities, or that management determines are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners, and shareholders. It is not clear what effects any such potential actions may have on the Company’s business, including the effects on our employees, players and consumers, customers, partners, development and content pipelines, the Company’s reputation, financial condition, results of operations, revenue, cash flows, liquidity, or stock price.
| 4. | Changes in significant accounting policies |
Accounting pronouncements adopted during the period
IFRS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets (“IFRS 37”)
In May 2020 the International Accounting Standards Board issued Onerous Contracts-Cost of Fulfilling a Contract. This amended IFRS 37 to clarify that for the purpose of assessing whether a contract is onerous, the cost of fulfilling the contract includes both the incremental costs of fulfilling that contract and an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts. This Standard defines an onerous contract as a contract in which the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract exceed the economic benefits expected to be received under it. The unavoidable costs under a contract reflect the least net cost of exiting from the contract, which is the lower of the cost of fulfilling it and any compensation or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it. If an entity has a contract that is onerous, the present obligation under the contract shall be recognized and measured as a provision. The amended standard was adopted on January 1, 2022, resulting in no changes to the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Future accounting pronouncements
The following standards have not yet been adopted and are being evaluated to determine their impact on the Company:
Amendments to IAS 1 - Classification of liabilities as current or non-current
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 - Disclosure of Accounting Policies
Amendments to IAS 8 - Definition of Accounting Estimates
Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes - Deferred Tax Related to Assets and liabilities Arising from a Single Transaction
Other accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or the Company is still assessing what the impact will be to the Company’s financial statements.
| 5. | Net income (loss) per share |
Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income (loss) per share assumes the conversion, exercise, or issuance of all potential common share equivalents unless the effect is to reduce the loss or increase the income per share. For purposes of this calculation, stock options, warrants and RSU’s are potential common shares and are only included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share when their effect is dilutive.
Due to the net loss incurred during the three and six months ended February 28, 2022, and 2021, all outstanding options, restricted share units and warrants were excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding as their effect was anti-dilutive. Weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended February 28, 2022, and 2021 were and , respectively (February 28, 2021- and ), respectively.

| (b) | Publisher advance |
On
February 7, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary Frankly Media LLC, amended its commercial agreement with its largest publisher, which
secured a long-term extension. The contract is expected to go through early calendar year 2023. One of the key terms of the amended agreement
required the Company to advance $
| (i) | $ | |
| (ii) | $ | |
| (iii) | $ |
The advance is to be recouped through additional withholding on future advertising revenue share payments made to the publisher, beyond Frankly’s share, and is effective for amounts billed for periods February 1, 2021, forward.
As
of February 28, 2022, $
The breakout of the publisher advance into current and non-current portions is based on an estimate of advertising billings over the next twelve months and the resulting additional withholding on the related advertising revenue share payments.

Litigation and arbitration
In
April 2020, the Company announced its renegotiation of the acquisition of Allinsports. The revised purchase agreement provided for the
acquisition of
In
response, in November 2020, the shareholders of Allinsports commenced arbitration in Alberta, Canada seeking, among other things, to
compel the Company to complete the acquisition of Allinsports without the audited financial statements, and to issue common shares
of the Company to those shareholders. As alternative relief, the shareholders of Allinsports sought up to US$
Separately,
in April of 2021, the Company received a copy of a complaint filed by 3CI Holdings, LLLP in the Circuit Court for the 11th Judicial
Circuit for Miami-Dade naming Allinsports, A1 Simulation LLC (an entity purported to be a subsidiary of Allinsports), and the Company,
seeking to hold the parties, including Company, responsible for unpaid rent under a lease agreement between 3CI’s predecessors
in interest and A1 Simulation, and seeking damages of at least $
On January 21, 2021, eight former shareholders of Winview filed a Complaint in Delaware Chancery Court against four Winview directors (David Lockton, et al. v. Thomas S. Rogers, et al.) alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of Winview to Engine. The relief sought includes rescission of the sale of Winview to Engine and compensatory damages. The defendants have filed a motion to dismiss the claims. By Decision dated March 1, 2022, the Court granted in part and denied in part, the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Complaint. Neither the Company nor Winview have been named as parties to this action. Under the March 9, 2020, Business Combination Agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired Winview, the Company agreed to indemnify Winview’s directors for any claims arising out of their service as directors for Winview.
In July of 2021, Winview Inc. filed separate patent infringement lawsuits against DraftKings Inc. and FanDuel, Inc in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging that Sportsbook and Daily Fantasy Sports offerings of DraftKings and FanDuel infringe four of Winview’s patents. These actions seek the recovery of damages and other appropriate relief. Draft Kings and FanDuel have filed motions to dismiss, which are pending. While potential damages may be significant if these lawsuits are wholly or partially successful, at this time the Company cannot predict the outcome of the suits or determine the extent of potential damages if they are successful in whole or in part.
The outcomes of pending litigations in which the Company is involved are necessarily uncertain as are the Company’s expenses in prosecuting and defending these actions. From time to time the Company may modify litigation strategy and/or the terms on which it retains counsel and other professionals in connection with such actions, which may affect the outcomes of and/or the expenses incurred in connection with such actions.

The Company is subject to various other claims, lawsuits and other complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company records provisions for losses when claims become probable, and the amounts are estimable. Although the outcome of such matters cannot be determined, it is the opinion of management that the final resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, operations, or liquidity.

25. Financial instruments and risk management
| (a) | Financial risk management objectives and policies |
The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk. These financial instrument risks are actively managed by the Company under the policies approved by the Board of Directors. The principal financial risks are managed by the Company’s finance department, within Board approved policies and guidelines. On an ongoing basis, the finance department actively manages market conditions with a view to minimizing the exposure of the Company to changing market factors, while at the same time limiting the funding costs to the Company.
| (b) | Credit risk |
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company uses information supplied by independent rating agencies where available, and if not available, the Company uses other publicly available financial information and its own records to rate its customers.
Credit risk arises from cash and deposits with banks as well as credit exposure to outstanding receivables, the carrying amounts represent the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts that represents its estimate of expected losses in respect of accounts receivable. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures, and a collective loss component established for groups of similar assets in respect of losses that have been incurred but not yet identified. The collective loss allowance is determined based on historical data of payment statistics for similar financial assets.
The Company’s accounts receivable are concentrated among customers in the media and broadcasting industry, which may be affected by adverse economic factors impacting that industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its major customers, maintains reserves for expected credit losses, and does not require any collateral deposits.
As
of February 28, 2022, no customer (August 31, 2021 – one) accounted for greater than

|
| (c) | Liquidity risk |
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk with respect to its contractual obligations and financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecasted and actual cash flows and matching maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Company seeks to ensure that it has sufficient capital to meet short term financial obligations after considering its operating obligations and cash on hand.
The Company’s policy is to seek to ensure adequate funding is available from operations and other sources, including debt and equity capital markets, as required.

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to fair value risk with respect to debt which bear interest at fixed rates.
| (e) | Foreign exchange rates |
The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to fluctuations of financial instruments related to cash, accounts and other receivables, and accounts payable denominated in Euros, as well as debt denominated in Canadian dollars.
