Pineapple Financial Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

For the six month period ended February 29, 2024

(Expressed in US Dollars)

1. Description of business

Pineapple Financial Inc. (the” Company”) is a leader in the Canadian mortgage industry, breaking the mold by focusing on both the long-term success of agents and brokerages, as well as the overall experience of homeowners. With over 600 brokers within the network, the Company utilizes cutting-edge cloud-based tools and AI-driven systems to enable its brokers to help Canadians realize their ultimate dream, owning a home.

The Company was incorporated in 2006, under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. The Company’s head office is located at 200-111 Gordon Baker Road, Toronto, Ontario, M2H 3R1 Canada and its securities are publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange American (NYSEAmerican) under ticker “PAPL”. The Company completed an Initial Public Offering on October 31, 2023 for gross proceeds of $3,500,000 and the first day of trading was November 1, 2023.

Impact from the global inflationary pressures leading to higher interest rates

During the second quarter of 2024, due to inflationary pressures that were felt around the globe, central banks all over the world increased interest rates steadily to reduce these pressures. The impact on the real estate market has been to reduce the price wars, bidding, and control over the runaway prices. This has led to modifications in all businesses associated with real estate including the Company. With the interest rates increases which reduces prices has led to reduced volume for the Company. It is unknown how long the increased interest rates will last. The Company determined that there were no material expectations of increased credit losses, and no material indicators of impairment of long-term assets.

2. Significant accounting policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations and include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023. Accordingly, accounting policies, estimates, and judgements applied are the same as those applied in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023, unless otherwise indicated. The Company assesses its accounting estimates and judgements every reporting period.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on April 15, 2024.

For six months period ended February 29, 2024

(Expressed in US Dollars)

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Basis of preparation, functional and presentation currency

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

All financial information is presented in US Dollars (“USD”) as the Company’s presentation currency and functional currency is in Canadian Dollars (“CAD”). The interim financial statements are condensed and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s latest annual year-end consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023. It is management’s opinion that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period has been made, and all adjustments are of a recurring nature or a description of the nature of and any amount of any adjustments other than normal recurring nature has been stated. Sufficient disclosures have been so as to not make the interim financial information misleading. There are no prior-period adjustments in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Operating segments

The Company operates as one operating segment which is reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-makers. The chief operating decision-makers are responsible for the allocation of resources and assessing the performance of the consolidated operating segment and have been identified as the CEO and CFO of the Company.

Basis of consolidation

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, Pineapple Insurance Inc and Pineapple National Inc. All transactions with the subsidiary and any intercompany balances, gains or losses have been eliminated upon consolidation. The subsidiaries have a CAD functional currency and accounting policies have been applied consistently to the subsidiaries.

3. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements requires the directors and management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. 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 future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the critical estimates and judgments applied by management that most significantly affect the Company’s financial statements. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Investments (level 3)

Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded on the statements of financial position, cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible; where observable market data is not available, Management’s judgment is required to establish fair values.

Share based compensation

Management is required to make certain estimates when determining the fair value of stock options awards, and the number of awards that are expected to vest. These estimates affect the amount recognized as stock-based compensation in the statements of income and comprehensive income based on estimates of volatility, forfeitures and expected lives of the underlying stock options which are at a maximum of 36 months vesting period.

10. Right-of-use asset and lease liability

The Company leases all its office premises in Ontario and British Columbia, Canada. The Company extended the current Ontario premises of 4,894 sq. ft. lease to January 1, 2030, and acquired additional premises of 8,368 square feet adjacent to the current office premises with the same landlord. The additional premises lease also expires on January 1, 2030. The total area of use by The Company is 13,262 sq. ft. The Company acquired a 1,454 square feet premise lease in British Columbia commencing August 1, 2023 and expiring on July 31, 2028. The Company recognized a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability in respect of this lease. The lease liability was measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate as at September 1, 2017 (date of initial application), estimated to be 6%. The right-of-use asset was measured at an amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to that lease recognized in the interim condensed balance sheet immediately before the date of initial application.

The following schedule shows the movement in the Company’s right-of-use asset:

13. Deferred government incentive

The Company was eligible for the Government of Canada SRED program up to November 3, 2023. The Company has accrued $634,481 of SRED receivable as at February 29, 2024, which is recognized in trades and other receivables in the consolidated balance sheet. A portion of the funds received is related to costs that have been capitalized for the development of internally generated software recognized as intangible asset in Note 6 as such $503,258 of the balance received and accrued is recognized as deferred government incentive balance and will be recognized as recovery in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss over the useful life of the intangible assets. As at February 29, 2024, $80,334 was recognized as reversal of recovery of operating expenses in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. As at February 28, 2023 $392,919 was recognized as recovery of operating expenses in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss over the useful life of the intangible assets.

14. Risk management arising from financial instruments

a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company’s principal financial assets that expose it to credit risk are cash and trade receivables. The Company mitigates this risk by monitoring the credit worthiness of its customers and holding cash at financial institutions.

The maximum credit exposure at February 29, 2024 is the carrying amount of cash and trade receivables. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is considered to be low, given the size and nature of the various counterparties involved and their history of performance.

The Company has not historically incurred any significant credit loss in respect of its trade receivables. Based on consideration of all possible default events over the assets’ contractual lifetime, the expected credit loss in respect of the Company’s trade receivables was minimal as at February 29, 2024 and August 31, 2023.

b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any variable interest-bearing debt.

c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, by continuously monitoring actual and forecasted cash flows.

d) Management of capital

The Company’s objective of managing capital, comprising of shareholders’ equity, is to ensure its continued ability to operate as a going concern. The Company manages its capital structure and makes changes to it based on economic conditions.

Management and the Board of Directors review the Company’s capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believe this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. The Company’s capital management objectives, policies and processes have remained unchanged during the period ended February 29, 2024.

Executive Summary

We are a fintech company based in Ontario, Canada. Our tech-driven businesses are focused on mortgages and insurance. Our goal is to provide clients with an industry-leading experience through our trusted digital solutions that are simple and fast.

Recent Developments

Business Trends

The Bank of Canada kept the prime interest rate high during 2023 to control high inflation. This resulted in high mortgage interest rates. Consequently, the mortgage interest rates increased significantly, leading to a considerable shrinkage in the mortgage origination market from 2022 to 2023 to 2024. The rise in mortgage interest rates, alongside the economic uncertainty, has resulted in a reduced demand for mortgage originations.

The mortgage business is aligned with the real estate industry, which is a seasonal business. The peak season is normally May to September of each year. Our quarterly results mostly fall in the off-peak season.

This amount represents an increase of $46.747 million or 7.18% compared to the same period that ended on February 28, 2023. Our Net Loss stood at $1.531 million, as compared to the $1.404 million recorded in the same period on February 28, 2023. We also generated a loss of $1.112 million of Adjusted EBITDA, which represents a increase of$1.045 million, or 1,555.37%, compared to the $0.067 million generated in the same period on February 28, 2023. For more information on Adjusted EBITDA, please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section.

Summary of three months ended February 29, 2024.

During the period under review, we generated $314.963 million in residential mortgage loans compared to $267.901 million in the previous corresponding period, which ended on February 28, 2023. This amount represents an increase of $47.062 million or 17.567% compared to the same period that ended on February 28, 2023. Our Net Loss stood at $0.657 million, as compared to the $0.685 million recorded in the same period on February 28, 2023. We also generated a loss of $0.527 million of Adjusted EBITDA, which represents a increase of $0.497 million, or 1,649.78%, compared to the $0.030 million generated in the same period on February 28, 2023. For more information on Adjusted EBITDA, please refer to the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We provide investors with additional information in addition to our GAAP results. We do this by disclosing our non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted Revenue, adjusted net (Loss) income, adjusted diluted (Loss) earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA. These measures, which GAAP does not calculate, are believed to be useful by management in providing investors with useful information regarding the performance and value of our business. Our non-GAAP financial measures serve as performance indicators unaffected by fluctuations in certain costs or other items. While other companies may define these measures differently, they allow for better comparisons of general operating performance from period to period. It is important to note that our non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as substitutes for Revenue, net Income, or any other operating performance measure calculated by GAAP. Finally, we rely on these non-GAAP financial measures to plan and forecast for future periods.

Our definition of “Adjusted Revenue” is the sum of all gross revenues. Similarly, we define “Adjusted Net (Loss) Income” as pre-tax earnings before accounting for share-based compensation expense, impairment loss on investments, accrual of legal fees and deferred tax accrual, and the applicable tax effects of these adjustments. We add back Salesforce expenses and capitalize them with a 20% depreciation rate. We added deferred government incentive to the current Income to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA. Lastly, our definition of “Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share” is derived after adjusting for the abovementioned items.

Our definitions of each non-GAAP financial measure allow us to add back certain cash and non-cash charges and deduct certain gains included in calculating total revenues, net, and net Income attributable to Pineapple Financial Inc. or net Income. However, these expenses and gains vary greatly and are difficult to predict. From time to time in the future, we may include or exclude other items if we believe that doing so is consistent with providing useful information to investors.

Although we use non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our business performance, it’s important to note that they do not include certain necessary costs to operate our business. These measures can help demonstrate the long-term impact of our strategies. Still, they should not be considered an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. It’s important to note that non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. These measures cannot be relied upon as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of money available to us to meet our obligations.

Limitations to our non-GAAP financial measures included, but are not limited to:

(a)	they do not reflect every cash expenditure, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
(b)	Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payment on our debt;

20

(c)	although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced or require improvements in the future, and Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirement for such replacements or improvements; and
(d)	they are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

To better evaluate our operating performance, we utilize non-GAAP financial measures and other comparative tools, in addition to U.S. GAAP measurements, which address certain limitations. The reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to their corresponding U.S. GAAP measures can be found below. Furthermore, our U.S. GAAP-based measures are available in the consolidated financial statements and related notes, which are included in Form 10-Q.

Description of Certain Components of Financial Data

Components of Revenue

Our sources of revenue include commissions from lenders, underwriting revenue, membership fees from mortgage agents, and other Income.

Sales revenue

Sales revenue is commission collected from financial institutions with contracts in place. The Company earns revenue based on a percentage of mortgage amount funded between individuals referred by the Company and financial institutions funding the mortgage. We are an agent in these deals as we provide the platform for other parties to provide services to the end-user. For each contract with a customer, the Company identifies the contract with a customer, identifies the performance obligations in the contract, and determines the transaction price to the separate performance obligations based on the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognizes revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised. The Company acknowledges revenue when a contract exists with a lender party and an agent broker, the contract identifies the use of the platform service to close a mortgage deal, the mortgage deal has been closed with the lending financial institution, and commissions are paid by the lending financial institution based on various criteria of the mortgage deal including but not limited to interest rates available at that time, term, seasonality, collateral, Income, purpose, etc. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services provided in the normal course of business. Upon completing all the actions listed above, revenue is recognized at the end of the deal. A typical transaction attracts a commission fee payable to Pineapple Financial Inc.

Subscription Revenue:

Users access and use our technology platform, MyPineapple, for a flat monthly service fee of $118. In exchange for this fee, users of MyPineapple have access to a network management system that allows them to perform back-office procedures more efficiently and effectively. This platform will enable them to process the deal described above and prepare and complete the package for submission to be funded by the financial institution.

Revenue

Sales Revenue decreased from $8,465 million in the six months ending February 29, 2024, to $8.093 million in the six months ending February 28, 2023, representing a 4.39% decrease from period to period. To control high inflation, The Bank of Canada increased the interest rate from 3.75% as of December 01, 2022, to 5.00% as of February 29, 2024. This resulted in decreased real estate transactions and, eventually, in the mortgage business.

Net revenue

Pineapple Financials’ net revenue increased 1.36% during the six months ending February 29, 2024. This increase was due to more volume by low-volume agents with low margins in second quarter of the financial year.

Cost of Revenue

During the six months ending February 29, 2024, the cost of revenue decreased to $6.74 million from $7.130 million during the six months ending February 28, 2023. The decrease in the cost of revenue is due to the decline in revenue.

Revenue

Sales Revenue increased from $3.868 million in the three months ending February 29, 2024, to $3.920 million in the three months ending February 28, 2023, representing a 1.35% increase from period to period. Bank of Canada halted the interest rate hike, and the inflation is under control. This resulted in a better real estate market at the start of the year. The hope for interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada led to an increase in volume.

Net Revenue

Pineapple Financials’ net revenue increased to $291,378 during the three months ending February 29, 2024. This represents a 59.04% increase as compared to the previous corresponding quarter ended February 28, 2023.

Cost of Revenue

During the three months ending February 29, 2024, the cost of revenue decreased by $0.239 million from $3.375 million during the three months ended February 28, 2023 to $3.375 million during the three months ended February 29, 2024. The decrease in the cost of revenue is due to the improved real estate market, which resulted in business by agents with low margins.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity needs encompass working capital and capital expenditures, specifically those associated with technological enhancements, investments in skilled personnel, and marketing services. These three categories have constituted a significant portion of our liquidity and capital resource demands throughout the year. We primarily utilize cash on hand and cash flows generated from our operations to meet these requirements.

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities:

Our primary source of cash flow comes from our core business operations.

During the six-month period that ended on February 29, 2024, the Company’s net cash used in operating activities decreased to $1,566,642 from $1,924,986 in the previous corresponding period. This decrease in cash outflow is primarily due to accounts payable and accrued liability payments. Additionally, trade and other receivables add outflows to operating activities.

Net cash flow from (used in) financing activities

During the six months ending February 29, 2024, the Company issued 875,000 shares through an initial public offer of $4.00. The Company received $2.752 million after underwriting commission and other initial public offering expenses.

Net cash flow from (used in) investing activities

The Company invested $0.558 million to develop software for quick and accurate mortgage application filling by field agents during the six months ended February 29, 2024. These investments will help the Company acquire more mortgage agents in the future.

As of February 29, 2024, the Company’s cash balance was $1,339,618, as compared to $79,976 on February 28, 2023.

The Company’s capital structure comprises contributed common shares, an accumulated deficit, additional paid-in capital, and other comprehensive losses. Its primary sources of liquidity are cash generated through operations and cash received from investors in exchange for the issuance of common shares. The business aims to meet all its financial and other obligations as they come due.

Future capital requirements will depend on various factors, including our investment in technology and growth rate. However, certain aspects, like interest rates and real estate markets, are beyond our control.

The following table presents our liquidity:

	February 29, 2024		August 31, 2023

		2,417,239		1,697,504

As of February 29, 2024, Pineapple has a healthy liquidity position with $1.340 million in cash and cash equivalents. The trade and other receivables, prepaid expenses and deposits indicate that the Company can meet its obligations. The Company’s liquidated assets are under pressure mainly due to the expansion of our operations and investment in technology. Additionally, the Canadian real estate market, inflation, and the continuous hike of interest rates by the Bank of Canada have also affected the Company’s operations and impacted its liquidity.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

This management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Per U.S. GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates if conditions differ from our assumptions. While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 in the “Notes to Financial Statements,” we believe the following accounting policies are critical to making effective judgments and estimates in preparing our financial statements.

29

Revenue Recognition

The Company has adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for revenue recognition. The standard’s core principle is that revenue should be recognized when goods or services are transferred to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard introduced a new contract-based revenue recognition model with a measurement approach that is based on an allocation of the transaction price. It establishes a five-step model to account for revenue arising from contracts with customers. Under this standard, revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration an entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The standard requires entities to exercise judgment, considering all of the relevant facts and circumstances when applying each step of the model to contracts with customers. Additionally, the standard specifies the accounting for incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs directly related to fulfilling a contract.

When the Company transfers goods or services to a customer, revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the expected consideration.

The company operates an online platform powered by Salesforce, enabling brokers and agents to close deals efficiently.

The Company’s subsidiary, Pineapple Insurance Inc., generates revenue by charging insurance policies and services premiums. Pineapple Insurance is affiliated with a major insurance company, from which it earns commissions for providing services, primarily mortgage insurance. Mortgage insurance is a requirement for each mortgage. Pineapple Insurance acts as the agent that supplies insurance services to the consumer and is paid a commission from the premiums collected by the insurance company whose products and services it provides to the end consumer. Additionally, Pineapple Insurance has adopted ASC 606.

Basis of presentation, functional and presentation currency

The Company’s headquarters is in Ontario, Canada, and the functional currency is Canadian Dollars (CAD), with the presentation currency being U.S. Dollars (USD). The Company’s subsidiaries have a functional currency of CAD and presentation currency of USD, which have been applied consistently.

A foreign currency translation will be undertaken to report under US GAAP, which will be the basis of the presentation.

Lease Accounting

The relevant criteria applicable is ASC 842. We assess at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. We apply a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. We recognize lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

At the commencement date of the lease, we recognize lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. Lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. Lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by us and payments of penalties for terminating the lease if the lease term reflects us exercising the option to terminate. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs. In calculating the present value of lease payments, we use our incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

30

We recognize right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Investments

We invested in a commercial mortgage firm, MCommercial, based in Montreal and Toronto, Canada representing 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares. This strategic partnership allows Pineapple residential mortgage agents to have access to a leading commercial mortgage firm and experts, which will expand their product offerings, service levels and corporate revenue through increased transactions.

The Company entered into a share purchase agreement with 9142-2964 Quebec Inc. pursuant to which the Company acquired five Class A Shares of 7326904 Canada Inc. (dba as Mortgage Alliance Corporation) (“Alliance”), representing 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Alliance. Alliance is a mortgage brokerage firm based in Ontario, Canada with locations in Calgary, Vancouver and Halifax.

The total amount of both investments was recorded at fair value, and any impairment loss is recognized in the profit and loss account.

Share-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, non-employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). ASC 718 also requires measurement of the cost of employee, nonemployee, and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

The Company has a share option plan (the “Plan”) to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors, officers, employees, and consultants whose present and future contributions are important to the success of the Company by offering them an opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance through the award of share options.

Each share option converts into one common share of Pineapple Financial Inc. on exercise. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the option. The options carry neither right to dividends nor voting rights. Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry.

In 2017, the Plan was amended such that the total number of common shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to the Plan is to equal 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

Options granted on June 14, 2021, vest over 2 years, whereby 25% of the options granted are vested on the grant date, and the remaining unvested options are vested in equal installments every six months after that. The fair value of the stock options granted was $1,317,155. A total stock-based compensation expense was recognized of $Nil for six months ended February 29, 2024 (February 28, 2023 - $33,041).

The Chief Financial Officer was granted 63,821 Stock options on November 15, 2021 as part of his compensation package. The options vest over a 3-year period whereby 8,974 of the options granted vested on the grant date and the remaining unvested options vest in equal instalments every 6-months thereafter. The fair value of the stock options granted was $141,885. The Chief Financial Officer options were forfeited during the year ended August 31, 2023. For period ended November 30, 2023, stock-based compensation expense of $nil (February 28, 2023 - $48,458) was recognized.

31

On November 3, 2023, Company issued 26,250 warrants to our underwriters of initial public offering, EF Hutton. These are excisable between May 31, 2024 to October 31, 2028. Strike price is $4.00 per warrant.

On July 6, 2023, we completed a 1-for-3.9 reverse stock split, or the Reverse Split, effective immediately. Consequently, all the share numbers, shares prices, and exercise prices have been retroactively adjusted in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

Controls and Procedures

Although we are currently not required to maintain an effective internal controls system, we have assessed and already started creating our internal controls as we have determined the need to maintain effective and controlled systems including but not limited to:

● skilled staffing for financial, accounting and external reporting areas, including segregation of duties;

● reconciliation of accounts as necessary to ensure correct classification, accurate recording and balancing of books;

● proper recording of expenses, liabilities, and other accounting entries in the period to which they relate as per the matching principle;

● maintaining a fixed assets register that identifies user, department, and detailed tracking;

● evidence of internal review and approval of accounting transactions by 2 or more independent personnel;

● documentation of processes, assumptions and conclusions underlying significant estimates; and

● documentation of accounting policies and procedures.

As of February 29, 2024, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and based on this assessment, our management concluded that, as of February 29, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. We have made improvements during the current period and are implementing plans to improve these deficiencies, including implementation of independent review and approval of transactions and reconciliations in certain processes through hiring additional personnel and segregating duties amongst our team

Financial Instruments

As on February 29, 2024, the Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, trade and other receivables, investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and loan.

As per ASC 820, Fair value measurement establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independence and objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

i) Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

ii) Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either

directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

iii) 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 (unobservable inputs).

The following table provides the fair values of the financial assets in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position, categorized by hierarchical levels and their related classifications.

As of February 29, 2024	Level 1		Level 2	Level 3		Total
Assets:
Cash		1,339,618					1,339,618
Investment					9,984		9,984

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company’s business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described elsewhere in this MD&A, as well as general economic and market risks. These risk factors could materially affect the Company’s future operating results and could cause actual events to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information relating to the Company.

32

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, this disclosure is not required.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We are transitioning to and will maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and timely reported as provided in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We will periodically review the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, including compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to our operations. We will make modifications to improve the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and may take other corrective action if our reviews identify a need for such modifications or actions. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and we will apply judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1 Legal Proceedings.

Description of business

1. Description of business

Pineapple Financial Inc. (the” Company”) is a leader in the Canadian mortgage industry, breaking the mold by focusing on both the long-term success of agents and brokerages, as well as the overall experience of homeowners. With over 600 brokers within the network, the Company utilizes cutting-edge cloud-based tools and AI-driven systems to enable its brokers to help Canadians realize their ultimate dream, owning a home.

The Company was incorporated in 2006, under the Ontario Business Corporations Act. The Company’s head office is located at 200-111 Gordon Baker Road, Toronto, Ontario, M2H 3R1 Canada and its securities are publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange American (NYSEAmerican) under ticker “PAPL”. The Company completed an Initial Public Offering on October 31, 2023 for gross proceeds of $3,500,000 and the first day of trading was November 1, 2023.

Impact from the global inflationary pressures leading to higher interest rates

During the second quarter of 2024, due to inflationary pressures that were felt around the globe, central banks all over the world increased interest rates steadily to reduce these pressures. The impact on the real estate market has been to reduce the price wars, bidding, and control over the runaway prices. This has led to modifications in all businesses associated with real estate including the Company. With the interest rates increases which reduces prices has led to reduced volume for the Company. It is unknown how long the increased interest rates will last. The Company determined that there were no material expectations of increased credit losses, and no material indicators of impairment of long-term assets.

Accordingly, accounting policies, estimates, and judgements applied are the same as those applied in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023, unless otherwise indicated.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

For six months period ended February 29, 2024

(Expressed in US Dollars)

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Basis of preparation, functional and presentation currency

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.

All financial information is presented in US Dollars (“USD”) as the Company’s presentation currency and functional currency is in Canadian Dollars (“CAD”). The interim financial statements are condensed and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s latest annual year-end consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023. It is management’s opinion that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period has been made, and all adjustments are of a recurring nature or a description of the nature of and any amount of any adjustments other than normal recurring nature has been stated.

Significant Accounting Judgments Estimates And Assumptions

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

3. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of financial statements requires the directors and management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. 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 future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The following are the critical estimates and judgments applied by management that most significantly affect the Company’s financial statements. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.

Investments (level 3)

Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded on the statements of financial position, cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques. The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible; where observable market data is not available, Management’s judgment is required to establish fair values.

Share based compensation

Management is required to make certain estimates when determining the fair value of stock options awards, and the number of awards that are expected to vest. These estimates affect the amount recognized as stock-based compensation in the statements of income and comprehensive income based on estimates of volatility, forfeitures and expected lives of the underlying stock options which are at a maximum of 36 months vesting period.

Risk management arising from financial instruments

14. Risk management arising from financial instruments

a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company’s principal financial assets that expose it to credit risk are cash and trade receivables. The Company mitigates this risk by monitoring the credit worthiness of its customers and holding cash at financial institutions.

The maximum credit exposure at February 29, 2024 is the carrying amount of cash and trade receivables. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is considered to be low, given the size and nature of the various counterparties involved and their history of performance.

The Company has not historically incurred any significant credit loss in respect of its trade receivables. Based on consideration of all possible default events over the assets’ contractual lifetime, the expected credit loss in respect of the Company’s trade receivables was minimal as at February 29, 2024 and August 31, 2023.

b) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any variable interest-bearing debt.

c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, by continuously monitoring actual and forecasted cash flows.

d) Management of capital

The Company’s objective of managing capital, comprising of shareholders’ equity, is to ensure its continued ability to operate as a going concern. The Company manages its capital structure and makes changes to it based on economic conditions.

Management and the Board of Directors review the Company’s capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believe this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. The Company’s capital management objectives, policies and processes have remained unchanged during the period ended February 29, 2024.
