1. Incorporation and operations

The Needle Capital Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated on June 1, 2016 by Certificate of Incorporation issued pursuant to the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta). The Company is classified as a Capital Pool Company (“CPC”) as defined in Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"). The principal business of the Company is to identify and evaluate assets or businesses with a view to potentially acquire them or an interest therein by completing a purchase transaction, by exercising of an option or by any concomitant transaction. The purpose of such an acquisition is to satisfy the related conditions of a qualifying transaction under the Exchange rules.

The head office and registered office of the Company is located at 1900, 520 – 3^rd Street SW, Calgary, Alberta.

The Company issued 4,200,000 common shares for an amount of $210,000 and on June 16, 2017 the Company’s prospectus for an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) of the Company’s common shares was receipted by the regulatory authorities. The IPO closed on September 15, 2017 and a total of 3,000,000 common shares were issued at a price of $0.10 per common share. The Company’s shares commenced trading on September 15, 2017 under the symbol NEDL.P.

Where an acquisition or participation is warranted, additional funding may be required. The ability of the Company to fund its potential future operations and commitments is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain additional financing.

There is no assurance that the Company will identify a business or asset that warrants acquisition or participation within the time limitations permissible under the policies of the Exchange, at which time the Exchange may suspend or de-list the Company's shares from trading.

3. Significant accounting policies

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared, for all periods presented, following the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2017.

Significant accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and judgments are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.

Estimates

The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the amounts recognized in the financial statements are:

Fair value of financial instruments

The estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities, by their very nature, are subject to measurement uncertainty.

Taxes

Provisions for taxes are made using the best estimate of the amount expected to be paid based on a qualitative assessment of all relevant factors. The Company reviews the adequacy of these provisions at the end of the reporting period. However, it is possible that at some future date an additional liability could result from audits by taxing authorities. Where the final outcome of these tax-related matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will affect the tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Judgements

The key areas of judgment that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the amounts recognized in the financial statements are:

Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilize the Company’s deductible temporary differences which are based on management’s judgement on the degree of future taxable profits. To the extent that future taxable profits differ significantly from the estimates impacts the amount of the deferred tax assets management judges is probable.

Financial instruments

The Company is required to classify its various financial instruments into certain categories for the financial instruments’ initial and subsequent measurement. This classification is based on management’s judgement as to the purpose of the financial instrument and to which category is most applicable.

Stock options

The Company records stock-based payments based on management’s judgement of highly subjective assumptions including the expected exercise date of options, which is impacted by the timing of completion of the Qualifying Transaction, and price volatility.

Issued: Common Shares

	Number of
	Shares	$
At incorporation	-	-
Issued for cash (i)	4,200,000	210,000
As at June 30, 2017	4,200,000	210,000

Share issue costs	-	(124,400	)
As at September 30, 2017	7,200,000	385,600

(i)	The Company issued 4,200,000 Common Shares to directors of the Company at a price of $0.05 per share. All 4,200,000 Common Shares are subject to an escrow agreement. These 4,200,000 Common Shares, which are considered contingently issuable until the Company completes a Qualifying Transaction, are not considered to be outstanding for the purpose of the loss per share calculation.
(ii)	During the period ended September 30, 2017, the Company completed its initial public offering and raised gross proceeds of $300,000 through the issuance of 3,000,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.10 per share. Included in share issuance costs is $56,500 relating to the June 30, 2017 deferred costs balance.
	The Company granted warrants to the agent (the “Agent’s Warrants”) which entitles the Agent to purchase in aggregate up to 300,000 Common Shares at an exercise price $0.10 per Common Share. The Agent’s Warrants will expire 24 months from the date the Common Shares were listed on the Exchange. The Agent also received a cash commission equal to 10% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, a corporate finance fee of $10,000 and was reimbursed for its legal fees and reasonable expenses. The value of the Agent Warrants is $17,000 as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and has been recorded as share issue costs.

Escrow

The Company has issued 4,200,000 Common Shares subject to an escrow agreement whereby 10% of the shares will be released upon completion and approval of the Company’s qualifying transaction. An additional 15% of the escrowed Common shares will be released on each six month anniversary thereafter unless otherwise permitted by the Exchange. Common Shares issued upon the exercise of options held by officers and directors are subject to the same escrow conditions. Common Shares issued upon the exercise of the Agent’s options are restricted such that only 50% of the issued shares on exercise of such options may be sold prior to the Company completing a qualifying transaction.

Share-based payments

The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan which provides that the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time, in its discretion, and in accordance with the Exchange requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees and consultants to the Company, non-transferable options to purchase Common Shares, provided that the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance will not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares. However, other than in connection with a Qualifying Transaction, during the time that the Company is a CPC, the aggregate number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of all options granted under the Option Plan shall not exceed 10% of the Common Shares of the Company issued and outstanding at the closing of the Company's initial public offering. Such options will be exercisable for a period of up to five years from the date of grant and vest immediately.

6. Capital disclosures (continued)

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are:

i.	to maintain a flexible capital structure, which optimizes the cost of capital at acceptable risk; and,
ii.	to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence in order to sustain the future development of the business.

The Company is not subject to any externally or internally imposed capital requirements at period-end.

7. Financial instruments

The Company, as part of its operations, carries financial instruments consisting of cash and accounts payable and accruals. It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant credit, interest, or currency risks arising from these financial instruments except as otherwise disclosed.

Fair value

Fair value represents the price at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in an orderly market, in an arm's length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties who are under no compulsion to act. The Company classifies the fair value of the financial instruments according to the following hierarchy based on the amount of observable inputs used to value the instrument.

Level 1:	Fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in the active market for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2:	Fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).
Level 3:	Fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of cash is determined on level 1 inputs. The carrying amount of cash and account payable and accruals approximates its fair value due to the short-term maturities of these items.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with the counterparty's inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company believes it has no significant credit risk.

Liquidity Risk

The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at September 30, 2017, the Company had a cash balance of $367,454 to settle liabilities of $4,000.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity and equity prices. The Company has no market risks.
