A. |
Derived from the audited statement of financial position of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. as of May 31, 2021 prepared under IFRS. |
B. |
Derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position of Li-Cycle Corp as of July 31, 2021 which was prepared in US dollars and under IFRS. |
C. |
Derived from the unaudited condensed interim statement of financial position of Peridot Acquisition Corp. (“Peridot”) as of June 30, 2021 which was prepared under US GAAP. Except as noted in Note 1, there was no other material adjustment made to convert Peridot’s balance sheet from US GAAP to IFRS. |
1. |
Peridot’s Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption balance of US$217,242,360 was classified as a temporary equity under US GAAP and should be classified as a liability under IFRS because the right to redeem was at the option of the holder. |
2. |
On February 16, 2021, Li-Cycle Corp. entered into a definitive business combination agreement with Peridot Acquisition Corp. Li-Cycle Corp. is expected to receive approximately US$582 million in gross transaction proceeds after redemption by Peridot Acquisition Corp.’s shareholders, and 100% of Li-Cycle Corp.’s existing shares will roll into the combined company, Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. Out of the US$582 million in gross proceeds, US$266.4 million will come from Peridot’s existing cash balance while the remaining US$315.5 million is expected to come from private investments in public equity. |
3. |
Li-Cycle Corp. was identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes. An expected $55 million of fees relating to the raising of capital via share issuance is presented as a reduction of share capital on the pro forma combined balance sheet. US$10.5 million of the fees have been recorded as deferred underwriting fee |
payable on Peridot’s balance sheet as of June 30, 2021. US$6.4 million of fees have been incurred to date and $1.0 million has been paid by Peridot Acquisition Corp. as of June 30, 2021. The remaining US$38.1 million of expected fees have been deducted directly against share capital of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. on the pro forma combined balance sheet. Out of the remaining US38.1 million, $6.2 million was recorded in prepayments and deposits and in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the interim statement of financial position of Li-Cycle Corp. as of July 31, 2021. |
4. |
In connection with the shareholder meeting held by Peridot to approve the Business Combination, a total of 3,377,626 Class A Shares were redeemed by Peridot, resulting in a total redemption payment of approximately $33.8 million, while the remaining US$266.4 million of cash and securities held in trust account will become cash of the combined entity, Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. US$183.5 million of Peridot’s Class A ordinary shares which were subject to possible redemption but not redeemed (18,346,610 shares at US$10.00 per share) will become part of the permanent share capital of the combined entity, Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. Peridot’s existing share capital of US$1,578 and contributed surplus of US$58,008,334 will be added to the share capital balance of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. and Peridot’s existing accumulated deficit of US$51,009,910 will be deducted from the share capital balance of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. |
5. |
All of Li-Cycle Corp.’s existing fully diluted shares will be exchanged for shares or stock options of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. Li-Cycle Corp.’s existing share capital of US$37,805,879 as of July 31, 2021 will become part of the share capital of the combined entity, Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. All restricted share units will be exercised upon the business combination transaction, so Li-Cycle Corp.’s restricted share units balance of US$3,259,010 are added to the share capital balance of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. Accelerated vesting of Li-Cycle Corp.’s existing stock options would result in an additional expense of $2,124,321. For the portion of Li-Cycle Corp.’s existing stock options which are surrendered in exchange for shares, $794,328 of contributed surplus would be added to the share capital balance of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. The remaining stock options of Li-Cycle Corp. would be converted into stock options of Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. at the exchange ratio of 39.91. |
6. |
Li-Cycle Corp. was identified as the acquirer for accounting purposes. The acquisition of Peridot Acquisition Corp. is outside the scope of IFRS 3, “Business Combinations,” and it is accounted for as an equity-settled, share-based payment transaction in accordance with IFRS 2, “Share-based Payments” (“IFRS 2”). Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. is considered to be a continuation of Li-Cycle Corp., with the net identifiable assets of Peridot Acquisition Corp. deemed to have been acquired by Li-Cycle Corp. in exchange for shares of Li-Cycle Corp. Under IFRS 2, the transaction is measured at the fair value of the consideration deemed to have been issued by Li-Cycle Corp. in order to acquire 100% of Peridot Acquisition Corp. Any difference in the fair value of the consideration deemed to have been issued by Li-Cycle Corp. and the fair value of Peridot Acquisition Corp.’s identifiable net assets represents a listing service received by Li-Cycle Corp., recorded through profit and loss, summarized as follows: |

• | A lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate lease, in which case the lease liability is remeasured based on the lease term of the modified lease by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification. |
