NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 AND 2017

(Tabular amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and share data) (unaudited)

 

1. GOVERNING STATUTES AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Alithya Group Inc. (“Alithya” or the “Company”), incorporated on April 2, 1992 under the Companies Act (Québec), now the Business Corporations Act (Québec)), provides innovative consulting services in the areas of information technology, including systems integration, strategy and expert recruiting services, mainly in the financial, transportation, telecommunications, health, energy, public sector and retail verticals.

The Company’s registered and head office is located at 2875, boulevard Laurier, suite 1250, Québec, (Québec), G1V 2M2.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies adopted in the most recent annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018, except for the effects of applying IFRS 15 and IFRS 9. The accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The accounting policies have been applied consistently by all Alithya entities.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of Compliance

The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the parent company’s functional currency. They have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’. They do not include all of the information required in annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 13th, 2018.

Use of Estimates and Judgments

The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the amounts reported as assets, liabilities, income and expenses in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are the same as those applied in the last annual audited consolidated financial statements.

REVENUE RECOGNITION, UNBILLED REVENUE AND DEFERRED REVENUE

Alithya generates revenue principally through the provision of consulting services in the areas of information technology including systems implementation and strategy. These services are provided under arrangements with varying pricing mechanisms.

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 AND 2017

(Tabular amounts are in thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and share data) (unaudited)

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

 

To determine whether to recognize revenue, the Company follows a 5-step process:

1. Identifying the contract with a customer

2. Identifying the performance obligations

3. Determining the transaction price

4. Allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations

5. Recognizing revenue when/as performance obligation(s) are satisfied.

The total transaction price for a contract is allocated amongst the various performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. Revenue is recognized either at a point in time or over time, when (or as) the Company satisfies performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to its customers.

The Company recognizes contract liabilities for consideration received in respect of unsatisfied performance obligations and reports these amounts as other liabilities in the statement of financial position. Similarly, if the Company satisfies a performance obligation before it receives the consideration, the Company recognizes either a contract asset or a receivable in its statement of financial position, depending on whether something other than the passage of time is required before the consideration is due.

Certain of the Company’s arrangements may include client acceptance clauses. Each clause is analyzed to determine whether the earnings process is complete when the service is performed. Formal client sign-off is not always necessary to recognize revenue, provided that the Company objectively demonstrates that the criteria specified in the acceptance provisions are satisfied. Some of the criteria reviewed include historical experience with similar types of arrangements, whether the acceptance provisions are specific to the client or are included in all arrangements, the length of the acceptance term and historical experience with the specific client.

Time and materials arrangements - Revenue from consulting services and systems implementations under time and materials arrangements is recognized over time, as the services are rendered.

Fixed-fee arrangements - Revenue from consulting services and systems implementations under fixed-fee arrangements where the outcome of the arrangements can be estimated reliably is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method over the service periods. The Company primarily uses labour costs or labour hours to measure the progress towards completion. This method relies on estimates of total expected labour costs or total expected labour hours to complete the service, which are compared to labour costs or labour hours incurred to date, to arrive at an estimate of the percentage of revenue earned to date. Management regularly reviews underlying estimates of total expected labour costs or hours. If the outcome of an arrangement cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognized to the extent of arrangement costs incurred that are likely to be recoverable.

Unbilled revenue and deferred revenue - Amounts recognized as revenue in excess of billings are classified as unbilled revenue. Amounts received in advance of the performance of services are classified as deferred revenue.

Estimated losses on revenue-generating contracts - Estimated losses on revenue-generating contracts may occur due to additional contract costs which were not foreseen at the inception of the contract. Contract losses are measured at the amount by which the estimated total costs exceed the estimated total revenue from the contract. The estimated losses on revenue-generating contracts are recognized in the period when it is determined that a loss is probable. The expected loss is first applied to impair the related capitalized contract costs, if any, with the excess recorded in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and in other long-term liabilities. Management regularly reviews arrangement profitability and underlying estimates.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

 

IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company has adopted the guidance effective April 1, 2018 using the retrospective method, with the effect of initially applying this standard recognized at the beginning of the earliest period presented and has elected to apply the practical expedient to not apply this guidance to contracts which are completed before the beginning of the earliest period presented or April 1, 2017, and the practical expedients for contract modifications (assessing the contracts in combination with any modifications before April 1, 2017).

NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ADOPTED

The adoption of IFRS 15 has mainly affected the Company’s presentation method of its payrolling services from gross reporting to net reporting based on the new criteria for determining whether the Company is a principal or an agent in these transactions.

The following table summarizes the impact of adopting IFRS 15 on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017. There was no impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated balance sheet as at March 31, 2018 and the interim condensed consolidated statements of cash flows and comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 nor on the Company’s net loss.

IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments

IFRS 9 sets out requirements for recognizing and measuring financial assets, financial liabilities and some contracts to buy or sell non-financial items. This standard replaces IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.

IFRS 9 simplifies the classification of a financial asset as either at amortized cost or at fair value as opposed to the multiple classifications which were permitted under IAS 39. IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characters of the financial assets. The standard also adds guidance on the classification and measurement of financial liabilities.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

 

IFRS 9 replaces the ‘incurred loss’ model in IAS 39 with an ‘expected credit loss’ (“ECL”) model. The new impairment model applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, contract assets and debt investments at FVOCI, but not to investments in equity instruments. Under IFRS 9, credit losses are recognized earlier than under IAS 39.

IFRS 9 contains new requirements on the application of hedge accounting. The new requirements look to align hedge accounting more closely with the Company’s risk management activities by increasing the eligibility of both hedged items and hedging instruments and introducing a more principles-based approach to assessing hedge effectiveness.

The Company has adopted the new standard effective April 1, 2018 with a nominal impact on the Company’s disclosure.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING STANDARD CHANGES

The following standards have been issued but are not yet effective:

IFRS 16 – Leases

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 – Leases to set out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a lease contract. The standard eliminates the classification of a lease as an operating lease and requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in the statement of financial position for all leases, with exemptions permitted for short leases and leases of low value assets. The standard supersedes IAS 17 – Leases and other lease related interpretations. The standard will be effective on April 1, 2019 for the Company with earlier adoption permitted only if IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers is also applied. The Company is yet to fully assess the impact of this standard and therefore is unable to provide quantified information. However, in order to determine the impact, the Company is in the process of:

 

   

Performing a full review of all agreements to assess whether any additional contracts will become lease contracts under IFRS 16’s new definition of a lease;

 

   

Deciding which transitional provision to adopt; either full retrospective application or partial retrospective application (which means comparatives do not need to be restated). The partial application method also provides optional relief from reassessing whether contracts in place are, or contain, a lease, as well as other reliefs. Deciding which of these practical expedients to adopt is important as they are one-off choices;

 

   

Assessing current disclosures operating leases as these are likely to form the basis of the amounts to be capitalised as right-of-use assets;

 

   

Determining which optional accounting simplifications are available and whether to apply them;

 

   

Assessing the additional disclosures that will be required.

Share purchase plan

The Company has a share purchase plan entitling its employees to purchase shares of the Company at a price determined in the shareholder agreement.

Under the share purchase plan, the Company contributes an amount in shares equivalent to the employee’s contribution, provided that the employee is still employed by the Company on December 31 of each given year. The employee’s contribution cannot exceed 10% of the annual base salary and the Company’s contribution can vary between 1% and 3.5% depending on the employee’s seniority. The Company’s contribution is recognized in share-based compensation. During the six months ended September 30, 2018, the Company reserved 75,493 shares (43,675 shares during the six months ended September 30, 2017) representing its contribution and recognized a corresponding expense of approximately $286,000 ($166,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2017).

Stock option plan

Alithya established a stock option plan for class A shares for certain officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Under this plan, the Board of Directors grants a certain number of class A stock options and sets the option exercise price, expiry date and date on which the options may be exercised. The maximum number of options available for issuance under the plan is limited to 20% of the issued and outstanding class A shares.

All options granted under the plan may be exercised within a maximum 10-year period from the date they are awarded and vest over period of three years from the award date. They may also be exercised in connection with a liquidity event, as defined in the shareholder agreement.

The option activity for the respective periods is summarized as follows:

6. RELATED PARTIES

Operating transactions with shareholders

In the normal course of operations, the Company concluded the following transactions with shareholders exercising significant influence:

 

Period ended

   Three months ended September 30,      Six months ended September 30,  
     2018      2017      2018      2017

Consulting fee revenue

     9,532        11,096        23,265        23,448  

 

*

One of the shareholders exercising significant influence has committed to minimum amounts of revenue and EBITDA over a four-year period ending in July 2020, which may be extended to July 2021 under certain conditions. Should the minimum contracted amounts not be met, the shareholder in question and another one of the shareholders will jointly reimburse Alithya an amount up to $4 million.

 

As at

   September 30,      March 31,  
     2018      2018

The transactions have been recorded at the exchange amount, which represents the contractual amount of consideration established and accepted by the related parties. Other expenses concluded with shareholders exercising significant influence included employee benefits and communications expenses. However, these amounts were not significant.

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share are calculated by dividing profit or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the three months period ended (25,951,311 in 2018; 25,730,593 in 2017) and the six months period ended (25,951,311 in 2018; 25,665,435 in 2017). Diluted earnings per share are calculated taking into account the dilution which could result if stock options were exercised or converted into common shares at the later of the following dates: the beginning of the period or the time of issuance.

The stock options mentioned in Note 5 were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share since the Company suffered losses and the inclusion of these stock options would have an antidilutive effect.

8. FINANCIAL EXPENSES
