FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for any historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this Annual Report on Form 20-F contain certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to our financial condition, results of operations and business. These statements relate to analyses and other information which are based on forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable. These statements also relate to our future prospects, developments and business strategies. These forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “may”, “plan”, “predict”, “will” and similar terms and phrases, including references to assumptions. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including current trend information, projections for deliveries and other trend projections, that may cause our actual future activities and results of operations to be materially different from those suggested or described in this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

These risks include:

·our ability to generate sufficient ongoing cash flow from operations or to raise adequate capital to allow us to grow the business;
·conducting operations in international markets;
·the availability of suitable aircraft used in conducting our operations;
·the emergence of alternative competitive technologies;
·protection of our intellectual property and rights to our SFD® technology;
·the loss of key personnel;
·our dependence on a limited number of clients;
·foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations may affect our financial position;
·volatility in oil and natural gas commodity prices may reduce demand for our services; and
·other factors described herein under “Risk Factors” (see Item 3. D.)

If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those expected, estimated or projected. Given these uncertainties, users of the information included in this Annual Report on Form 20-F, including investors and prospective investors, are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We do not intend to update the forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report on Form 20-F.

In this Annual Report on Form 20-F, except as specified otherwise or unless the context requires otherwise, “we”, “our”, “us”, the “company”, and “NXT” refer to NXT Energy Solutions Inc. and its subsidiaries. All references to “fiscal” in connection with a year shall mean the year ended December 31.

All financial information contained herein is expressed in Canadian dollars (“Cdn$”) unless otherwise stated.

B.         Capitalization and indebtedness.

Not applicable.

C.          Reasons for the offer and use of proceeds.

Not applicable.

D.          Risk factors.

Investing in our common shares involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information included in this document, you should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing our common shares. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could materially suffer. As a result, the trading price of our common shares could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.

Our ability to continue operating is not certain.

We are in the early stages of realizing the goal of industry acceptance of our SFD® technology, during which we may have a significant economic dependency on a limited number of clients. As such, there is uncertainty about the timing and magnitude of future revenues. We recognize that there is limited ability to support operations indefinitely without generating sufficient new revenue sources or securing additional financing if such should become required.

The financial statements rely upon estimates and assumptions that could be incorrect.

The preparation of financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as well as revenues and expenses recorded in our financial statements. Estimates made relate primarily to the measurement of accrued liabilities, stock-based compensation expense, valuation of future income tax assets, estimates for asset retirement obligations, and the useful lives of capital assets and intellectual property.

The estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and are based upon the best information available to management; however, we cannot provide assurance that future events will not prove that these estimates and assumptions are inaccurate. Any revisions to our estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on our future reported net income or loss and assets and liabilities.

Volatility in oil and natural gas commodity prices may affect demand for our services.

We incur a risk of market changes in oil and natural gas prices. Prospective revenues from the sale of our services can be impacted by oil and natural gas price changes. The impact of price changes on our ability to enter into SFD® survey contracts cannot be readily determined; however, in general, if commodity prices decline significantly, our opportunity to obtain and execute SFD® survey contracts will also likely decline.

Our financial position is affected by foreign currency fluctuations.

We currently conduct cash transactions and have holdings in Canadian dollars, US $ and periodically have holdings of local currency in countries such as Bolivia and Colombia. We generally contract to earn revenues in U.S. dollars and potentially may earn revenues in Canadian dollars and other foreign currencies. Our 2015 survey contract in Bolivia (see also Item 4.B – Description of principal markets) was based on the local Bolivianos currency, which has an ongoing fixed rate to the US $. Our reporting currency is in Canadian dollars. We currently do not engage in currency hedging activities, and are reviewing opportunities to do so. Our cash positions and potential foreign currency revenue streams in currencies other than Canadian dollars exposes us to exchange rate fluctuations between the Canadian dollar and foreign currencies (see also Item 11).

Our financial position will be affected by exchange rate fluctuations. We may earn revenue and incur expenses denominated in foreign currencies, yet report our financial results in Canadian dollars. Furthermore, we intend to enter into contracts to provide services in foreign countries and may periodically conduct business in other currencies such as the Euro. Changes in currency exchange rates could have an adverse effect on the company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

 720-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

Our net income or loss is impacted by interest rate fluctuations.

We periodically invest available cash in short term investments that generate interest income that will be affected by any change in interest rates. See Item 11.

We rely upon the availability of aircraft to conduct our survey operations.

In 2009, we entered into an aircraft charter agreement with Air Partners Corp. (“Air Partners”), a Calgary, Alberta-based international aircraft charter operator, to supply aircraft services (on an hourly rate basis, plus designated operating costs) for our survey projects. Through 2015, this agreement was renewed on an ongoing annual basis, with a guaranteed minimum annual total of 100 charter hours to be purchased by NXT from Air Partners. In December 2015, NXT acquired (from its third party owner), a 1997 Cessna Citation Ultra 560 jet aircraft, the primary aircraft which had previously been charterhired to NXT by its operator, Air Partners. The purchase price was US $2 million, and Air Partners will continue to maintain and operate (including providing pilots, aircraft maintenance engineers, insurance, hangars, etc.) the aircraft now owned by NXT, in accordance with Transport Canada and other regulatory standards. When the aircraft is not needed for use by NXT, Air Partners will seek to earn net charterhire revenues from the aircraft on behalf and for the account of NXT.

Air Partners also has access to an alternate, similar model aircraft (certified for the use of our survey equipment) which could be charterhired for use by NXT if needed.

In the event that NXT’s aircraft is not available (due to damage, a need for extensive repairs, or other unforeseen events) to conduct survey projects, there is a risk that suitable alternative aircraft may not be available on a timely basis from other charter operators when needed. This inability to conduct survey operations could have a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are a small business with limited personnel and our inability to segregate duties between administrative staff is an internal control weakness.

Certain duties that are most appropriately segregated between different employees are, due to our current limited staff, assigned to one individual.

Standard internal control methodology involves the separation of incompatible functions by assigning these functions to separate individuals, and in larger organizations, to separate departments. We often cannot allocate these functions to separate individuals because our administrative staff is limited.

Although we have adopted alternative control methods designed to compensate for the reduced ability to separate incompatible functions, these alternative controls are not effective and there is more than a remote likelihood that our internal control over financial reporting will not prevent or detect material misstatements if they should exist in our financial statements. This lack of separation of duties exposes us to potential misappropriation of funds, embezzlement and other forms of fraud and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations (see also Item 15).

We may periodically engage in transactions with related parties.

We may periodically enter into related party transactions with our officers and directors (see also Item 7.B). The most significant transaction was a “Technology Transfer Agreement” (the “TTA”) that was executed on December 31, 2006 between NXT and Mr. George Liszicasz, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), president and director, wherein we issued 10,000,000 convertible preferred shares to him in exchange for the rights to the SFD® technology for use in hydrocarbon exploration. In 2013, a total of 2,000,000 of these preferred shares were converted (on a one-to-one basis) into common shares, and the remaining 8,000,000 preferred shares were converted in August 2015.

For a full history of the TTA see also Item 4. part A, “Information on the Company - History and development of the company”, and Item 4. part B. “Information on the Company - Business Overview – Technology Transfer Agreement”.

 820-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

Although we manage this potential conflict of interest risk through maintenance of a strong independent board of directors (the “Board”), all related party transactions have the potential for conflicts of interest that may compromise the ability of Board members to exercise their fiduciary responsibility to NXT shareholders.

A single major shareholder who is also a Board member and an officer of the company retains the ability to influence or control the company, and this influence or control may result in a conflict of interest.

Mr. George Liszicasz, our CEO, is our largest shareholder, and as of April 26, 2016 owns approximately 28% of our outstanding common shares and therefore has a substantial influence in all shareholder matters.

In January 2014, Mr. Liszicasz granted to various individuals “Rights” to acquire from him a total of 1,000,000 of the 8,000,000 common shares which were subsequently issued to him effective August 31, 2015 upon the conversion of the 8,000,000 preferred shares which he held. These Rights are exercisable at a price of $1.77 per common share, and have an expiry date of December 31, 2016. See also the Notes to NXT’s Consolidated Financial Statements or Item 4. part B. “Information on the Company – Technology Transfer Agreement”, for additional information relating to these Rights.

Controls do exist to mitigate any potential risks associated with this conflict of interest. Mr. Liszicasz adheres to a code of conduct which includes a fiduciary responsibility to the company and its shareholders and this conduct is governed by the independent Board of directors who collectively represent a majority of the Board. Furthermore all material related party transactions are disclosed publicly.

However, should these conflict of interest controls not be effective, decisions could be made by the company that may advantage Mr. Liszicasz and negatively impact other shareholders.

Our rights to SFD® technology may be challenged and we may need to defend our rights to the technology in the courts.

Our rights to ownership and use of SFD® technology depended on Mr. Liszicasz having the lawful right to sell to NXT the exclusive rights to exploit the SFD® technology for the exploration of hydrocarbons as agreed to in the TTA.

A risk exists that an unknown party may claim some legal entitlement to our intellectual property, our rights to commercialize this intellectual property or our right to create SFD® devices and processes. However, we believe that such a claim would be without merit.

The SFD® technology is an essential component of our business plan. If a third party challenged our lawful entitlement to this technology, the legal defense of our right to the technology may be expensive and could cause a loss of our right to the SFD® technology, or a protracted legal process to assert our right to the technology would have a material adverse effect on the company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely on specialized equipment, including a limited number of SFD® sensors, and this limitation may affect our ability to conduct business.

We rely on specialized data acquisition equipment, including a limited number of SFD® sensor devices, to conduct our aerial SFD® survey operations. We would be at risk if these survey sensors were to become damaged, destroyed, worn out, stolen or in any way became unavailable for use in operations prior to us creating and testing additional sensors. Should the sensors become unavailable for any reason, our ability to conduct surveys could be delayed for several months as we built new sensors. During this period we may become unable to satisfy contractual obligations, which may jeopardize future revenue opportunities and may potentially result in a client drawing on a contract performance bond posted by the company or otherwise making claims against the company for breach of contract. In addition, an inability to satisfy contractual obligations may have an adverse effect on our developing reputation within the oil and gas community.

NXT seeks to mitigate this risk by researching new designs and constructing additional SFD® sensor devices.

As the company is in the early commercialization phase, SFD® surveys have not been tested over all potential geological conditions. Some geological conditions may subsequently be proven to be unsuited for SFD® surveys thereby creating unforeseen limitations to the application of SFD® surveys.

 920-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

Any limitation to the application of SFD® surveys has the potential of restricting future revenue opportunities and if not properly disclosed to industry clients, such limitations may impact the reputation of the company with these clients.

Unless we pursue ongoing technological improvement and development, we may be unable to respond to changes in customer requirements or new competitive technologies.

We must continue to refine and develop our SFD® survey system to make it scalable for growth and to respond to potential future competitive pressures. These improvements require substantial time and resources. Furthermore, even if resources are available, there can be no assurance that the company will be commercially or technically successful in enhancing the technology. Our inability to keep pace with new technologies and evolving industry standards and demands could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely on a limited number of key personnel who collectively possess the knowledge and skills to conduct SFD® surveys and interpret SFD® data as required to meet contract obligations. Additional or replacement personnel cannot be found and trained quickly. The loss of any of these key persons or increased demand for our services from clients could impair our ability to meet contract obligations, thereby adversely impacting our reputation and our ability to earn future revenue from clients.

The company's future success depends to a significant extent on the continued service of its key technical and management personnel and on our ability to continue to attract and retain qualified employees. The loss of the services of our employees or a failure to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not have “key man” insurance on any of our personnel.

The company puts in place employment agreements with all of its executive officers, including George Liszicasz, its President and CEO.

We have a dependence on Mr. Liszicasz and two other staff members to be involved in the SFD® data interpretation process and to continue to enhance our technology. We are working to minimize dependency on key personnel. Mr. Liszicasz has trained and continues to train a team of signal interpreters to minimize our reliance on him to perform these functions. Currently, a total of six persons, three of which are highly experienced, (with one additional person currently in process of training) are trained to interpret SFD® signals.

Although we have engaged employees with suitable credentials to work with Mr. Liszicasz to enhance our interpretation process and further develop the SFD® technology, if we are unable to reduce dependence on Mr. Liszicasz and he becomes incapable of performing or unwilling to perform these functions, then there may be an adverse effect on our ability to interpret the data from SFD® surveys or to enhance our technology.

Within the province of Alberta, the skilled personnel that we require may periodically be in short supply and there is specialized training required that can take several months in order for a new employee to become effective. If we cannot hire these key personnel, we have inadequate time to train them or should we lose current personnel, then our ability to accept contracts or meet contract commitments may be adversely affected, thereby restricting our ability to earn revenue.

There is no certainty that an investor can trade our common shares on public markets at a stable market price.

The Company has historically had a limited public market for our common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”), and the United States (“U.S.”) OTC Markets Group’s Venture Stage Marketplace (the “OTCQB”) and there is a risk that a broader or more active public trading market for our common shares will not develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will not be sustained. Effective March 22, 2016, the Company’s application to graduate from the TSX-V to the broader Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), Canada’s premier stock exchange listing, was approved.

The market price for the common shares on the exchanges where our stock is listed has been, and we anticipate will continue to be, extremely volatile and subject to significant price and volume fluctuations in response to a variety of external and internal factors. This is especially true with respect to emerging companies such as ours. Examples of external factors, which can generally be described as factors that are unrelated to the operating performance or financial condition of any particular company, include changes in interest rates and worldwide economic and market conditions, as well as changes in industry conditions, such as changes in oil and natural gas prices, oil and natural gas inventory levels, regulatory and environment rules, and announcements of technology innovations or new products by other companies. Examples of internal factors, which can generally be described as factors that are directly related to our consolidated financial condition or results of operations, would include release of reports by securities analysts and announcements we may make from time to time relative to our operating performance, clients exploration results, financing, advances in technology or other business developments.

Because we have a limited operating history and a limited history of profitability to date, the market price for the common shares is more volatile than that of a seasoned issuer. Changes in the market price of the common shares, for example, may have no connection with our operating results or the quality of services provided to clients. No predictions or projections can be made as to what the prevailing market price for the common shares will be at any time, or as to what effect, if any, that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price. Given the relatively low historic trading volumes, small trades of NXT’s common shares can adversely and potentially dramatically affect the market prices for those shares.

Accordingly, investors in our common stock should anticipate both volatile stock price and poor liquidity unless these conditions change.

You will be subject to the penny stock rules to the extent our stock price on the OTCQB is less than $5.00.

Since the common shares are not listed on a national stock exchange within the United States, trading in the common shares on the OTCQB is subject, to the extent the market price for the common shares is less than $5.00 per share, to a number of regulations known as the "penny stock rules". The penny stock rules, subject to certain exemptions, require a broker-dealer to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to provide the customer with additional information, including current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account, and to make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and to receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. To the extent these requirements may be applicable, they will reduce the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the common shares and may severely and adversely affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the common shares.

You should not expect to receive dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never paid any cash dividends on our common shares and we do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Our current business plan is to retain any future earnings to finance the expansion of our business. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of directors and will be dependent upon our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors as our Board of directors may deem relevant at that time.

Our right to issue additional capital stock at any time could have an adverse effect on your proportionate ownership and voting rights.

We are authorized under our Articles of Incorporation to issue an unlimited number of common shares and an unlimited number of preferred shares. We may issue these shares under such circumstances and in such manner and at such times, prices, amounts and purposes as our Board of Directors may, in its discretion, determine to be necessary and appropriate, subject to compliance with all applicable exchange regulations and corporate and securities laws. Proportionate ownership and voting rights of common shareholders could be adversely affected by the issuance of additional common shares which may result in common share value dilution.

We may not be able to protect our trade secrets and intellectual property from competitors who would use this knowledge to eliminate or reduce our technological advantage.

Our success and future revenue growth will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property (“IP”). We have commenced an IP strategy process and intend to obtain patents related to the SFD® technology, while also utilizing “trade secrets” protection of the proprietary nature of our technology as applicable. The formal patent protection application process, which commenced in 2012, will require disclosure of at least some aspects of our SFD® technology to third parties and ultimately public disclosure. This disclosure could significantly increase the risk of unlawful use of our technology by third parties. Furthermore, we have no assurance that, even if we seek patent protection, a patent could be registered to protect our IP in all or any jurisdictions within North America or other countries throughout the world. If registered, there can be no assurance that it would be sufficiently broad to protect our technology or that any potential patent would not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented or that any right granted thereunder would provide meaningful protection or a competitive advantage to us. Finally, protection afforded by patents is limited by the financial resources available to legally defend IP rights. We currently do not possess the required financial resources to fund a lengthy defense of our rights if challenged by a much larger competitor or an oil and gas company.

We do enjoy common and contract law protection of our technology and trade secrets. Employees and contractors are governed by confidentiality agreements as well as a fiduciary responsibility to protect our technology, supporting documentation and other proprietary information.

Our strongest protection of the SFD® technology comes from restricting access to knowledge concerning the technology. Only a very limited number of NXT personnel have access to or knowledge of the underlying SFD® technology and no one employee and only one officer has access or knowledge of all aspects of the SFD® system. Currently, no third party has any significant knowledge of the technology. As further protection, SFD® equipment does not leave the direct control of NXT employees, thereby preventing unauthorized replication of the equipment.

The company reassesses the appropriateness of its IP protection strategy on an ongoing basis and seeks advice from IP advisors as necessary.

It is possible that a third party will copy or otherwise obtain and use the company's technology without authorization, develop a similar technology independently or design around the company's secrets. Accordingly there can be no assurance that the steps taken by the company to prevent misappropriation or infringement of our IP will be successful.

An inability to protect our IP would make it possible for competitors to offer similar products and services that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We experience operational hazards in our flight operations that may subject us to potential claims in the event that an incident or accident occurs.

The flight operations of SFD® surveys are subject to the hazards associated with general flight operations. An aircraft accident may cause personal injury and loss of life, as well as severe damage to and destruction of property or the SFD® sensors and related equipment.

Independent third parties provide all the services required to maintain and operate the aircraft; they bear the primary risks of flight operations. These services are provided by an organization accredited by Transport Canada to operate aircraft in accordance with Transport Canada approved and audited operating procedures. The aircraft operator employs the required pilots, aircraft maintenance engineers and support personnel and ensures that they operate within their Transport Canada operating certificate. Our employees do not perform any airworthiness or flight safety operations.

We require the flight contractor to maintain appropriate insurance coverage for the risks associated with aircraft operations, and we obtain insurance coverage to provide us with additional risk protection. In addition, we maintain general business insurance coverage, and believe that this insurance and the policy limits are appropriate for the operational risks that we incur.

 1220-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

Despite our policy to not operate the aircraft directly and our insurance coverage, we cannot avoid or alternatively be insured for all risks of flight operations. In the event of an incident or accident we may be sued by injured parties in excess of our policy limits or for damages that are not covered by our insurance policy. The magnitude of a lawsuit of this nature is not determinable. Furthermore, to the extent that our SFD® equipment is damaged, we may be unable to conduct SFD® surveys for several months following an accident.

We are a Canadian company and our nationality may impair the enforceability of a judgment for any person resident outside Canada.

Since we are a Canadian company and most of our assets and key personnel are located in Canada, you may not be able to enforce a U.S. judgment for claims you may bring against us, our assets, our key personnel or many of the experts named in this document. This may prevent you from receiving compensation to which you may otherwise have a claim.

We are organized under the laws of Alberta, Canada and substantially all of our assets are normally located in Canada. In addition, all but two of our current members of our Board of directors and all of our officers are residents of Canada. As a result, it may be impossible for you to affect service of process upon us or these individuals within the U.S. or to enforce any judgments in civil and commercial matters, including judgments under U.S. federal securities laws. In addition, a Canadian court may not permit you to bring an original action in Canada or to enforce in Canada a judgment of a U.S. court based upon civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.

We conduct operations in foreign countries, which exposes us to several risks that may have a material adverse effect on the company.

Criminal Activity and Social Instability – we have operated in the past in foreign countries such as Colombia, which over the past two decades experienced significant social upheaval and criminal activity relating to drug trafficking, kidnapping and terrorist acts. While the situation has improved dramatically in recent years, there can be no guarantee that the situation will not deteriorate again, nor are these risks eliminated as yet. Furthermore, other potential international survey locations may have similar or other indeterminate criminal or social instability risks.

Systemic criminal activity in a country or isolated criminal acts may disrupt operations, impact our ability to earn revenue, dramatically add to our cost of operations or potentially prevent us from earning any survey revenue in a country.

In addition, foreign markets may be susceptible to a higher risk of corruption and bribery. All of NXT’s employees, contractors, and independent sales agents are required to adhere to the company’s code of conduct and business ethics, which prohibits illegal activities, including any acts of bribery or corruption.

Political Instability - Any changes in regulations or shifts in political attitudes are beyond the control of the company and may adversely affect our business. Exploration may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations which have the effect of restricting exploration and production activities. These changes may adversely impact the laws and policies governing price controls, export controls, foreign exchange controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, environmental legislation, site safety or other areas.

Currently, there are no restrictions (other than the payment of local with-holding taxes) on the repatriation back to Canada of our earnings in foreign countries in which we have operated, such as Colombia and Bolivia; however, there can be no assurance that significant restrictions on repatriation to Canada of earnings will not be imposed in the future.

Our operations may also be adversely affected by changes in laws and policies in Canada impacting foreign travel and immigration, foreign trade, taxation and investment.

Commercial Disputes – While operating in a foreign country, we are subjected to local commercial laws which often involve executing contracts in a foreign language. Although every effort is made to ensure we have access to an accurate English translation, misunderstanding and potential disputes between parties may arise.

 1320-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

In the event of a dispute arising in connection with our foreign operations for any reason, we may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdictions of the courts of Canada or enforcing Canadian judgments in such other jurisdictions. We may also be hindered or prevented from enforcing our rights with respect to a government instrumentality because of the doctrine of sovereign immunity.

Accordingly, these risk factors have the potential of adversely reducing the level of survey revenue from our clients, our ability to operate effectively or our ability to be paid for our services and may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Where possible, NXT utilizes risk mitigation products offered by entities such as Export Development Canada (“EDC”). EDC financial products include insurance coverage of contract accounts receivable, guarantee support for contract performance bonds, and wrongful call insurance for such bonds.

We rely upon the right to conduct airborne surveys in foreign countries. These foreign operations expose us to the risks that we will be prevented from conducting surveys when requested by clients.

The operation of our business, namely conducting aerial SFD® surveys and interpreting SFD® data, is not subject to material governmental or environmental regulation in Canada and the United States with the exception of flight rules issued by Transport Canada and the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) governing the use of commercial aircraft, including rules relating to low altitude flights. The requirements in other countries vary greatly and may require permits and/or provide other restrictions to conducting flight operations in the country that may restrict our ability to perform SFD® surveys.

For example, in South American countries in which we have operated, such as Colombia and Bolivia, SFD® surveys must comply with additional requirements not encountered in Canada and the United States, including customs obligations and bonds related to the importation and exportation of the aircraft into the country, obtaining permits from the local aviation authority, and obtaining permits from the local Air Force. We have successfully operated in South America and other global regions in accordance with these typical requirements.

With our North America and International experience to date, we do not anticipate any government controls or regulations that will prevent timely completion of SFD® surveys. However, we may encounter government restrictions in other countries that may impact or restrict our ability to conduct surveys.

If we encounter government regulation and restrictions that impact or prevent us from conducting surveys in any country, then we will not be able to earn revenue in the country and we may be exposed to forfeiting any performance bonds which may have been issued.

We caution that the factors referred to above and those referred to as part of particular forward-looking statements may not be exhaustive and that new risk factors emerge from time to time in our rapidly changing business environment.

 

ITEM 4.         INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.         History and development of the company.

 

We are a technology company focused on providing a service to oil and natural gas exploration clients using our proprietary Stress Field Detection (“SFD®”) remote sensing airborne survey system. SFD® and NXT® are both registered trademarks of NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

 

NXT’s corporate history is summarized as follows:

·NXT was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 27, 1994 as Auric Mining Corporation.
·In January 1996, NXT acquired all of the common stock of NXT Energy USA, Inc. (which was then known as Pinnacle Oil Inc.) from its shareholders in exchange for common shares. As a consequence of this reverse acquisition, NXT Energy USA Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary and its shareholders acquired a 92% controlling interest in NXT’s common shares.
 1420-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   
·Prior to this reverse acquisition transaction, NXT was a corporate shell conducting no active business, and NXT Energy USA Inc. was a development stage research and development enterprise holding the worldwide rights to use what is now our SFD® technology for hydrocarbon exploration purposes.
·Shortly thereafter, on February 23, 1996 we changed our name to Pinnacle Oil International, Inc. and on June 13, 2000, subsequently changed our name to Energy Exploration Technologies.
·On October 24, 2003, our shareholders approved the continuance of the company from the State of Nevada to the Province of Alberta, Canada under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) (the “ABCA”). Also, our name was modified to Energy Exploration Technologies Inc. (“EETI”).
·On September 22, 2008 EETI changed its name to NXT Energy Solutions Inc. by way of Articles of Amendment filed pursuant to the ABCA.

Our registered office is located at Suite 302, 3320 – 17th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada and our telephone number is (403) 264-7020. In the United States our authorized agent is Parasec at: 318 North Carson Street, Suite 208, Carson City, NV and their telephone number is (888) 972-7273.

 

We are a reporting issuer in Alberta and British Columbia and are principally governed by the Alberta Securities Commission in accordance with the Securities Act (Alberta) and the ABCA. We are a foreign private issuer under United States securities laws and are subject to the regulation of the SEC in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

The underlying technology employed by our SFD® survey system was invented by George Liszicasz, our President and CEO, chairman and largest shareholder. The technology was initially licensed to the company by Mr. Liszicasz until December 31, 2006 through a series of consecutive license agreements. On December 31, 2006 we obtained the rights to the technology from Mr. Liszicasz pursuant to the terms of the TTA.

 

Upon execution of the TTA, Mr. Liszicasz transferred to us all his rights and entitlements to the SFD® technology for use in the field of hydrocarbon exploration. Mr. Liszicasz has retained the rights to the technology for use in all other applications.

For further details of the TTA, see the “Summary information on dependence on patents, licenses and contracts” section below.

SFD® technology for the purposes of the TTA is defined as the theories of quantum physics and engineering which are utilized in the operation of stress field detectors used by NXT for the reception, collection and recording of subsurface geological stresses for hydrocarbon exploration. See also Item 4. part B “Summary information on dependence on patents, licenses and contracts” for more information on this TTA agreement. 

Our business does not normally rely on significant capital expenditures. For the last three fiscal years, the company made net cash capital expenditures for property and equipment of $3,380,717 (2015), $41,808 (2014), and $20,463 (2013). These annual expenditures normally relate largely to upgrades to office computer equipment and SFD® survey equipment. In 2015, capital expenditures included the purchase of a survey aircraft (which had previously been charter-hired as needed from the owner / operator of the aircraft), as well as leasehold improvement costs incurred in a move to a new office location in Calgary.

 

The company does not currently have any significant capital expenditures in progress, or planned for the short term, for Canada or other international operations.

B.         Business overview.

Description of the nature of the company’s operations and principal activities

We utilize our proprietary, airborne SFD® survey system to provide a service for the oil and gas exploration industry. NXT provides a rapid and cost-effective method for our clients to evaluate large land areas for their exploration potential.

 

SFD® sensors remotely respond to gravity perturbations and changes in subsurface stress regimes that are meaningful for oil and gas exploration. These responses are captured as raw data that, when interpreted, can provide an indirect method to detect the presence of geological features such as structures, faults, fractures and reefs that are often associated with traps and reservoir accumulations. SFD® is effective over wide areas where surveys often exceed 5,000 square kilometers. The SFD® survey system has been shown effective by clients to quickly focus exploration resources, offering the benefit of reducing the risk, time and expense associated with frontier exploration.

 

Following completion of the aerial surveys, we deliver to our clients a detailed report and maps of the surveyed area that identifies, ranks and recommends areas with SFD® indications of reservoir potential.

 

In 2006, we commenced our current business model and began providing SFD® survey services to clients on a fee-for-service basis. In accordance with this model, we have not invested either directly or indirectly in exploration or development wells or engaged in other exploration or production activities. Our current business model minimizes our capital requirements, thereby conserving cash, and minimizes any perceived or real conflicts between the interests of NXT and its survey clients.

 

NXT’s primary business model is to earn revenues by conducting SFD® surveys for clients on a fee-for-service basis. Secondly, we may be able to negotiate to earn revenue from gross overriding royalty income and/or other incentive fees from clients should they generate production on areas recommended by SFD® surveys. Finally, in the future, we may earn a fee by providing other related geological and geophysical integration services to clients.

 

Our objective is to obtain broad industry acceptance and appreciation of the value of our SFD® survey system. The main obstacle in achieving this objective is the oil and gas industry’s skepticism related to the adoption of any early-stage technology. Accordingly, industry professionals are seldom prepared to devote resources or stake their professional reputation on an early stage technology. This reluctance is particularly acute when the fundamental science related to the technology is complex and not easily understood, as is the case with SFD®.

 

Our strategy to overcome skepticism in order to gain industry acceptance of SFD® includes maximizing client endorsement opportunities (such as through joint case studies) and targeting the most appropriate markets (i.e. where SFD® provides the maximum benefits). Our specific tactics include:

 

1.Focus the majority of sales resources on high profile primary markets which offer the maximum opportunity for success (such as Bolivia, Mexico, Colombia);

 

2.Build upon success in this initial market, and step out to other markets (such as Argentina, Peru, Brazil) in Latin America, and in South Asia (Pakistan, Malaysia, Sri Lanka);

 

3.Pursue requests of interest from qualified potential client "bluebirds" from all other locations in the world. The bluebird model is defined as an opportunity that arises, not from deliberate targeted sales initiatives, but in response to unsolicited client enquiries;

 

4.Continue to conduct pilot surveys to expand our knowledge base and provide documentation to support the use of SFD® in new applications. Each new application opens more market opportunities and provides valuable case studies to support our sales initiatives; and

 

 1620-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   
5.Respond to opportunities to present at technical conferences, publish papers in periodicals and generally maximize our opportunities to educate the industry on SFD® capabilities and document case study successes.

 

Description of the principal markets in which the company competes

Overview of markets

We have an opportunity to provide our services to any region in the world that conducts oil and gas exploration activities. However, we choose to be strategic and focus our limited sales resources in the early stages of commercialization on a limited number of markets.

 

A summary of revenues derived in our primary geographic market segments for the last 3 fiscal years, and highlights of global survey operations, follows:

 

Year ended December 31 2015 2014 2013
South and Central America (Bolivia, Belize) $ 17,422,151 - $ 24,803
North America (United States) - 3,913,367 -
South Asia (Pakistan) - - 2,659,292
  17,422,151 3,913,367 2,684,095

North America Market

We began marketing the SFD® survey system in 2006 largely in Canada and continued with this market focus until the end of 2008. Solely in Canada we earned survey revenue of $1.2 million, $5.6 million, and $2.9 million respectively in the prior fiscal years 2006, 2007 and 2008.

In 2011, we completed a US $150,000 contract to conduct a pilot SFD® survey in Montana, USA for a Calgary-based client.

In 2014, we completed two survey projects in Texas and Florida, USA, for a new client, with a total value of $3.9 million.

 

Latin America and Central America Markets

In 2008, exploration activity seriously diminished in Canada as a result of the world-wide credit crisis and falling natural gas commodity prices. In response, in late 2008 we looked to international markets for new revenue opportunities, especially where there were emerging, frontier-type exploration markets. Latin and Central America became a target market for us, with Colombia viewed as an attractive initial proving ground due to its many characteristics desirable for achieving market success for our SFD® survey system.

 

Colombia’s business-friendly approach and practical resource policies allowed it to attract a large number of exploration and production companies from around the world. In Colombia, there are obstacles to acquire geological and geophysical data as required to properly evaluate unexplored land. Obstacles include rain forests, environmental and community restrictions, security concerns and the high cost and time required to shoot seismic programs, particularly on-shore. SFD® can be a very effective tool to help overcome these obstacles.

 

Colombia was a primary international market focus in recent years, with NXT gaining valuable experience there. The company earned survey revenue in Colombia of $2.9 million in 2012, $0.4 million in 2010, and $3.7 million in 2009.

 

Building on our initial Colombia success, we have been pursuing many other South America countries as attractive potential markets. Many of the exploration companies active in Colombia are also active in other areas of South America, such as Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Brazil. These countries often share a number of the same community, remote access and environmental issues that make SFD® an attractive solution.

In 2012, SFD® surveys were conducted in several new markets, including Argentina, Guatemala, Belize and most importantly Mexico. Our first contract with the Petroleos Mexicanos ((“PEMEX”), the National Oil Company of Mexico) was for US $4.7 million, which was subsequently expanded before its completion to a total of US $5.8 million. This was a significant milestone for NXT, as it was our single largest contract to date, and it was able to be delivered in roughly 4 months. Mexico continues to be a primary target market to pursue for new SFD® survey opportunities.

 1720-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

In 2014, we invested significant marketing efforts in seeking to expand into the emerging Bolivia market. We were able to leverage our past experience in Colombia and Mexico, and in 2015, we successfully secured our largest single survey project to date. The contract with Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales Bolivianos (“YPFB”), the National Oil Company of Bolivia, was based on the local Bolivianos currency (which has an ongoing fixed rate to the US $), and had an equivalent value of US$13 million (net of local sales taxes included in the contract price).

Our SFD® data acquisition operations commenced in Bolivia in early June, and the data acquisition phase was completed in August, with NXT’s related recommendations reports delivered to YPFB in late October. During the data acquisition phase, YPFB chose to undertake an additional survey “expansion” project valued at approximately US $1.0 million. The decision for YPFB’s expansion was based on the rapid delivery of preliminary SFD® results, which had excellent correlations noted between anomalies identified by SFD® and the clients’ existing ones identified using seismic methods. A contract amendment was finalized in October, 2015 for this project, the final results for which were delivered by NXT in January 2016.

NXT also had ongoing discussions concerning potential SFD® survey project opportunities with several of YPFB’s affiliated, subsidiary companies which have exploration acreage in Bolivia. Two entities expressed interest in obtaining SFD® data for certain of their exploration lands in Bolivia: YPFB Chaco and YPFB Andina (which is a partnership with Repsol, a major Spanish oil company). A contract with YPFB Chaco to purchase initial SFD® data (which was acquired in summer 2015) in the amount of US $0.2 million was completed and delivered by NXT in Q4-15.

While conducting operations in Bolivia in summer 2015, NXT acquired additional proprietary SFD® data flight lines requested by YPFB Andina and minor additional SFD® data for YPFB Chaco. These parties indicated in 2015 that they intend to execute formal contracts to purchase this data, which has a sales value of approximately US $1.0 million (net), in 2016. While this process has advanced in 2016, there is, however, some risk that this process may not result in formal contracts to purchase the SFD® data from NXT.

South Asia Market

In late 2010, we started to negotiate a US $2.66 million contract to conduct a survey in Pakistan, and the contract was closed largely based upon case studies and client endorsements received from Colombian clients. Due to lengthy delays in securing approvals from all the relevant government bodies, the survey was not able to be commenced until late 2012, and was completed in Q1-2013. Our client subsequently presented the results of this project at an industry conference in Pakistan in November 2013, and this exposure has led to interest from new parties who are active in exploration in the region.

Description of seasonality of the company’s main business

 

There is no seasonality to our business. NXT does however, have a very cyclical business, as revenue activity is dependent upon the size and timing of a limited number of survey contracts each year.

 

Description of the sources and availability of raw materials

 

We do not foresee any constraints upon materials or equipment that will impede our ability to execute our business plan or affect our ability to conduct and/or expand our business. Our main direct project input costs are aircraft operating costs and data interpretation staff. None of these expenses have been subject to significant price volatility.

 1820-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

In order to conduct our survey operations we require the following:

 

  • Survey aircraft – Historically, we have both owned aircraft and chartered aircraft from independent charter aircraft companies. From 2009 to December 2015, we utilized an aircraft charter agreement with Air Partners, a Calgary-based air-charter operator, to provide aircraft, crew and maintenance services for our survey operations worldwide (see also Item 4. part B – “Business Overview - Summary information on dependence on patents, licenses and contracts” below). In December 2015, we acquired from Air Partners a jet aircraft which was previously charterhired to NXT. We currently rely on Air Partners as the manager / operator of the aircraft which we use in SFD® survey operations.
  • SFD® sensors - All of the survey sensors are manufactured in-house. Certain machining is required by third party machine shops, with final assembly performed by our technical staff. The sensors, once assembled, require flight testing prior to being considered acceptable for operational use. Not all sensors meet the performance criteria for operational use; however, we have demonstrated our ability to manufacture new functional SFD® sensors.
  • SFD® assembly - The units in which the sensors are incorporated are custom designed, fabricated and assembled in-house or through subcontracted vendors. We utilize the services of Transport Canada approved Design Approval Representatives to prepare subsequent type certificates (“STC”) for the installation of our SFD® units in each aircraft that we utilize for surveys. The time to obtain an STC approval for the installation of our SFD® units into any proposed aircraft type may require several months.
  • Computer hardware and software - (Data Acquisition System, SFD® Signal Conditioning Unit, and data Interpretation software). The customized software used in our data acquisition system is written and modified by outside consulting programmers with whom we have long-standing relationships. The hardware we use in our SFD® survey systems (other than the SFD® unit), and the balance of the computer software we use, are all readily available from retail or wholesale sources.

We are not dependent upon any other third party contract manufacturers or suppliers to satisfy our technology requirements.

 

Description of marketing channels

 

We largely use direct sales methods with some use of independent commissioned sales representatives in international markets.

 

Summary information on dependence on patents, licenses and contracts

 

Patents

We have not yet received any patents on our SFD® technology. However, we understand that we may be able to obtain worldwide patents in the future. In May 2012, we commenced a “provisional” patent application process in the U.S. and formally filed a patent on May 22, 2013, which was subsequently published on November 28, 2013. We intend to continue expanding the process with additional formal patent applications in the future. We understand that our right to patent the SFD® technology is not compromised by our ongoing commercial use of the technology, as the components of the SFD® technology have never been disclosed to third parties (except under very limited and confidential terms) or released in any manner into the public domain. See also Item 3. part D “Key Information – Risk factors”.

Initiatives to protect our Intellectual Property ("IP" - patenting and new research & development (“R&D”) initiatives) continue, which should also serve to allow us to expand on our technology disclosures in order to build further industry awareness, understanding, and acceptance of SFD®. Squire Patton Boggs LLP, a U.S.-based leader in IP protection, is advising on our IP strategy, including the prior filing of an initial U.S. provisional patent application in May 2013. In November 2014, NXT filed a related patent amendment submission in the U.S. and commenced to undertake new patent applications in select strategic international markets.

Technology Transfer Agreement (TTA)

Upon execution of the TTA on December 31, 2006, Mr. Liszicasz transfered all his rights and entitlements to the SFD® technology for use in the field of hydrocarbon exploration to NXT in exchange for receiving 10,000,000 non-voting, convertible preferred shares.

 1920-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

2,000,000 of these preferred shares became immediately convertible on a one-to-one basis into common shares of the company at the discretion of the holder. Effective May 22, 2013, Mr. Liszicasz formally converted these 2,000,000 preferred shares into 2,000,000 common shares.

The remaining 8,000,000 preferred shares were convertible on a one-to-one basis into common shares if NXT achieved the following cumulative revenue thresholds prior to the expiration of the TTA on December 31, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”):

·2,000,000 shares, should cumulative gross revenue reach US $50 million,
·an additional 2,000,000 shares, should cumulative gross revenue reach US $100 million,
·an additional 2,000,000 shares, should cumulative gross revenue reach US $250 million, and
·an additional 2,000,000 shares, should cumulative gross revenue reach US $500 million.

 

An additional 1,000,000 common shares were issuable to Mr. Liszicasz if cumulative gross revenues would have exceeded US $500 million.

NXT also had an option to choose to retain the SFD® technology by immediately converting all of the then outstanding preferred shares prior to the Maturity Date, and the independent members of the Board elected to do so effective August 31, 2015.

In the event that the conversion option had not been exercised by the Maturity Date, the preferred shares would have been redeemed for $0.001 per share and NXT's rights to the SFD® technology would have reverted to the holder of the preferred shares.

Separately, in January 2014, NXT’s CEO (the “Grantor”) personally granted (to a total of 17 persons, including NXT employees, directors, officers, advisors and others) “Rights” to acquire a total of 1,000,000 of the common shares which were expected to become issued to him in 2015 upon future conversion of the preferred shares by their Maturity Date. Each of the Rights were subject to certain vesting provisions and entitled the holder to acquire from the Grantor one common share of NXT at a fixed exercise price of $1.77. The Rights originally had an expiry date of December 31, 2015, which, effective that date, was extended by the Grantor to December 31, 2016. A total of 365,000 of these Rights were granted in 2014 to certain directors and officers of NXT, and a total of 430,000 Rights were granted to NXT’s employees and advisors. These Rights are supplemental to existing incentives which have been granted under NXT’s stock option plan.

Second Amended and Restated Technical Services Agreement (the “TSA”)

In conjunction with the TTA, the TSA was executed on December 31, 2006, covering the terms of Mr. Liszicasz employment with the company. The TSA also had a term ending December 31, 2015, and will be replaced in 2016 by an industry standard Executive Employment Agreement for Mr. Liszicasz, which is in process of being finalized by the NXT Board.

 

Basis for statements made regarding competitive position

 

Our SFD® airborne survey service is based upon a proprietary technology, which is capable of remotely identifying, from a survey aircraft, subsurface anomalies associated with potential hydrocarbon traps with a resolution that we believe is technically superior to other airborne survey systems. To our knowledge there is no other company employing technology comparable to our SFD® survey system for oil and natural gas exploration.

 

Seismic is the standard technology used by the oil & gas industry to image subsurface structures. It is our view that the SFD® survey system is highly complementary to seismic analysis. Our system may reduce the need for seismic in wide-area reconnaissance but will not replace the role of seismic in verifying structure, closure and selecting drilling locations. The seismic industry is very competitive with many international and regional service providers.

 

The SFD® system can be used as a focusing tool for seismic. With an SFD® survey a large tract (i.e. over 5,000 square kilometers) of land can be evaluated quickly to identify locations with indications of reservoir potential. Seismic surveys, although effective in identifying these locations, are much more expensive, require significantly more time and impose a much greater negative impact on local communities and the environment. An SFD® survey deployed first can provide necessary information to target a seismic program over a limited area of locations selected by SFD®. This approach can result in a more effective seismic program and reduce the overall cost, time, community resistance and environmental impact required to locate and qualify a prospect.

 2020-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

The industry uses other technologies for wide area oil and natural gas reconnaissance exploration, such as aeromagnetic and gravity surveys. These systems can provide regional geological information, such as basement depth, sedimentary thickness and major faulting and structural development; however, these other airborne techniques are not as suitable for identifying areas with reservoir potential as the SFD® system.

 

Description of material effects of governmental & environmental regulation

SFD® Survey Flight Operations

The operation of our business, namely conducting aerial SFD® surveys and interpreting SFD® data, is not subject to material governmental or environmental regulation in Canada and the United States with the exception of flight rules issued by Transport Canada and the FAA governing the use of commercial aircraft, including rules relating to low altitude flights. The requirements in other countries vary greatly and may require permits and/or provide other restrictions to conducting flight operations in the country that may restrict our ability to perform SFD® surveys as freely as in Canada and the United States.

 

For example, in Colombia, SFD® surveys must comply with three requirements not encountered in Canada and the United States. These requirements are: customs obligations and bonds related to the importation and exportation of the aircraft into Colombia; obtaining permits from the local aviation authority; and obtaining permits from the Colombian Air Force. NXT has successfully operated in the past in Colombia in accordance with these requirements.

 

With our past experience in Canada, the United States, Bolivia, Mexico, Colombia and other countries, we do not anticipate any unusual government controls or regulations that might significantly prevent timely completion of SFD® surveys. However, we may encounter unforeseen government regulations or restrictions in other countries that may impair or restrict our ability to conduct surveys, which could limit our ability to earn revenue or potentially expose us to forfeiture of performance bonds

D.         Property, plant and equipment.

Oil and Gas Properties

We have minor historical interests in a limited number of acreage holdings of undeveloped lands in western Canada. These assets are not a material asset and have been written off in our financial statements. Additionally, we may in the future become entitled to receive gross over-riding royalty (“GORR”) interests on production from portions of certain lands where we conducted past surveys for clients in Canada, such as in the Horn River shale gas basin in British Columbia, Canada. There is no certainty that wells on these lands will become placed on production, or that future royalty revenues will be earned from these entitlements prior to the expiry of the landowners related mineral leases. No asset value has been recorded in the financial statements for these GORRs.

Facilities / office premises

In August 2015, NXT moved to a new, larger office premises (11,298 square feet) at 3320 – 17th Avenue SW in Calgary under a 10-year lease at an initial estimated minimum monthly lease payment of $42,368 (including building operating costs) commencing in October 2015. See also Item 5.F “Contractual Obligations”.

 

Equipment

Our SFD® technology is comprised of three main components, detailed below, which we collectively refer to as our SFD® survey system. This system is generally stored at our Calgary office facility unless deployed during survey operations when this equipment would travel with the aircraft or be stored in a locked facility at the survey location when not in use. In addition, there is extensive interpretation equipment located in Calgary. The main categories of equipment we use are:

 

·

Stress Field Detector - the stress field detector, or SFD® system, including a unit which houses the SFD® sensors, is the principal component of our technology. SFD® sensors respond to changes in subsurface stress. These responses are transformed through a passive transducer into electronic digital signals. Airborne surveys are normally conducted utilizing an array of 22 SFD® sensors, consisting of 6 primary, 8 secondary and 8 development sensors, allowing the acquisition of multiple independent SFD® signals responses at all points of a survey.

 

·

Data Acquisition System - used in conjunction with the SFD® sensor array on surveys, our data acquisition system is a compact, portable computer system which concurrently acquires the electronic digital signals from the SFD® sensor array and other pertinent client data, including the GPS location information of the data.

 

·        

SFD® Signal Conditioning Unit - this self-contained unit contains electronic circuits for stabilizing and conditioning electronic signals. All sensor output is directly connected to this unit and after signal conditioning is completed, all output is forwarded to the computer system.

 

 2220-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

·

Interpretation Theatre - once returned to our home base, the SFD® data collected is processed and converted into a format that can be used by our interpretation staff using systems consisting of generally off-the-shelf computer equipment, high definition monitors, projectors and screens. This equipment is generally permanently set up at our Calgary office facility. A remote SFD® data interpretation theater is available and may be deployed during survey operations and would be set up in a facility at the survey client’s city.

 

We are not affected by any significant environmental concerns, nor is there any planned significant capital additions contemplated.

Expenses for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013

Survey costs – these costs depend on the number of survey projects conducted and completed in each fiscal year. We apply the completed contract basis of revenue recognition, with survey revenue and expenses recognized in the quarterly period in which our overall survey recommendations report is delivered to our client. Survey costs may also periodically include expenses related to some R&D and equipment test flights (as was the case in 2014 and 2013) as well as aircraft maintenance charges, which are not necessarily directly related to projects undertaken.

2015 survey costs related to the projects which commenced in May 2015 and were completed in Q4-15 for two new clients in Bolivia. These survey costs include a minor level of expenses incurred for a new local office which was opened in Bolivia in 2015 for administration and servicing of the projects.

2014 reflects completion of US $3.7 million of survey projects in the U.S., while 2013 reflected completion of a US $2.7 million contract which commenced in Pakistan in December 2012, and which was completed and delivered in Q1-13. 2013 also includes revenues of $24,850 related to a small survey which was flown in Belize in fall 2012, and completed in Q1-13. The Belize project in 2013 also included potential additional future revenues to NXT, which are contingent upon future events, and as such, will be recognized if and when received.

The survey contract conducted in Pakistan in Q1-13 had some categories of costs which were higher, and thus a lower profit margin, and a higher rate of foreign income tax withholdings, than the surveys which were completed in 2012. This project was originally negotiated in 2010 at a survey rate per km that was lower than the average which was in effect in 2011.

As noted previously, surveys were completed in a total of four countries in 2012, whereas 2011 reflected a single, small scale survey. Survey costs include aircraft charter, fuel, and related permits and logistics, plus local travel and accommodations incurred. Survey costs as a percentage of revenue is not directly comparable each year, as costs can be a function of non-controllable factors such as weather and permitting delays, and if the project was subject to sales commissions or local sales taxes. For example, survey costs in 2012 included sales commissions of US $696,977 for projects completed in 2012 (and $nil in 2011).

Also, there will be inherent cost differences between operating in Colombia or elsewhere in Latin America as compared with Canada and the United States. Costs incurred to mobilize and demobilize the survey aircraft and crews will vary widely depending on the distance travelled to the survey location. In addition, in some foreign countries we may incur many delays related to obtaining permits and approvals not required in Canada that can result in surveys taking several additional weeks to fly them. These delays result in additional aircraft, crew and accommodation costs.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expense - G&A is a major component of NXT's total expenses. All salaries and overhead costs related to SFD® data interpretation staff (other than out of country per diem allowances) are included in G&A, and not included with direct survey expenses. The categories included in G&A expense are as follows:

For the year ended December 31   2015 2014 2013
Salaries, benefits and consulting charges   $ 2,563,445 $ 2,383,388 $ 2,050,587
Board, professional fees, and public company costs   881,299 612,847 802,450
Premises and administrative overhead   862,052 599,230 584,778
Business development   369,087 433,441 544,642
Colombia office   20,807 103,202 130,330
  4,696,690 4,132,108 4,112,787
Bonus Expense   353,000 - -
Total G&A   5,049,690 4,132,108 4,112,787

 

Total G&A for 2015 of $5.0 million was $0.9 million higher than the 2014 total, and the overall net changes in G&A within the five individual expense categories noted above reflect several factors:

·staff levels were higher in 2015, leading to an increase salaries and related benefits.
 2520-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   
·in the Q4-14 period, public company costs were much lower than the normal rate for each quarter based on the timing of discretionary investor relations activities.
·board, professional fees, & public company costs were higher in 2015 primarily due to a higher level of spending on investor relations activities, and in 2014, a higher percentage of the total fees for NXT Board members were settled in the form of stock options granted, rather than paid in cash.
·premises and overhead costs rose in Q4-15, and for 2015 YTD, following the move to new, larger office premises in August, 2015. The increase included an overlap of office rent on two locations for one month in Q3-15, and the effect of amortizing the initial “rent-free” period at the new location to G&A expense over the 10 year term of the new lease (which resulted in a “deferred charge” being recorded in long-term liabilities).
·business development costs were slightly lower for 2015 YTD, although they are somewhat discretionary each quarter, as they are a function of the timing of activity in developing new client opportunities. Costs incurred in 2015 related to opportunities being pursued in the Latin America, Africa and south Asia regions.
·a decrease in costs in 2015 for the Colombia office following the lay off in summer 2014 of the office administrator.
·a  corporate bonus pool of $353,000 was expensed in Q4-15 based on financial results of the Bolivia survey project.

 

 

While total G&A for 2014 of $4.1 million was comparable to 2013 period, the overall net changes in G&A expense within the five individual categories noted above reflect several factors:

·staff levels were slightly higher in 2014 as compared to 2013.
·Board, professional fees, & public company costs decreased in 2014 primarily due to lower expenses for discretionary investor relations activities.
·business development costs are affected by the timing of discretionary international trips, and for 2013 there was a higher number of international tradeshows and conferences attended.
·NXT previously maintained a one-person administrative office in Colombia, and this person was laid off in Q3-14 due to an ongoing lack of survey activity in the region.

 

G&A expense in 2013 decreased by $0.4 million from 2012, which was a combination of several factors:

·although staff levels were higher in 2013 (rose mainly in the second half of 2012), a lower level of overall consulting fees were incurred due to a reduced headcount of consultants utilized. Also, the 2012 period included performance bonus expenses of $352,000 related to the record survey activity and profit achieved in 2012.
·2013 reflected slightly increased costs for such items as insurance and legal fees, partially offset by a decrease in investor relations activities.
·premises overhead costs declined slightly for 2013, primarily due to a decrease in average monthly base rent costs following a renewal of the office lease from November 2012.
·a high level of business development costs were incurred in 2012 and 2013, primarily related to expanding awareness of the SFD® technology, including costs of international tradeshows and conferences. The 2013 total included costs incurred in expanding on a 2013 geophysical data “integration study” which we undertook with our new client PEMEX, as well as hosting a technology workshop for PEMEX staff in Mexico in Q3-13.
·the Colombia office had much lower levels of activity, and a slightly reduced salary level, for 2013 as a result of there being no survey activity in the country in 2013.

 

 

Stock-Based Compensation Expense (“SBCE”) - this expense varies in any given quarter or year, as it is a function of several factors, such as the number of stock options issued in the period, and the period of amortization (based on the term of the contract and / or number of years for full vesting of the options, which is normally 3 years) of the resultant expense. Also, SBCE is a function of periodic changes in the inputs used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model, such as volatility in NXT's trailing share price.

 2620-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

There was a higher average number of stock options outstanding in 2015 (total of 3,462,835 as at the end of 2015 as compared to 2,541,435 as at the end of 2014). Total SBCE also includes additional expense recognized related to the “Rights” which were personally issued by NXT’s CEO in January 2014 (see prior discussion in “Item 4.B – Technology Transfer Agreement” related to the convertible preferred shares), and for which the term to expiry was extended by one year to December 31, 2016 in 2015, as follows:

  2015 2014 2013
SBCE recognized related to:      
     Rights – grant in 2014 $ 244,000 $ 226,000 $ -
     Rights – extension of term in 2015 210,000 - -
  454,000 226,000 -
Stock options 627,000 432,000 492,000
  1,081,000  658,000 492,000 

 

SBCE related to stock options for 2014 was lower than in 2013 partially due to a number of stock options which were issued in Q4-13 having immediate vesting, which resulting in the full expense being recognized in the Q4-13 period, rather than being amortized over the standard three year vesting period.

Amortization expense – consists of the following amounts:

  2015 2014 2013
Amortization of:      
     Property and equipment $ 142,943 $ 67,162 $ 85,484
     Intellectual property 562,000 - -
  704,943  67,162 85,484 

 

Most of our capital investment in property and equipment is in computer hardware, which is amortized on a 30% declining balance basis, such that amortization is high in the initial year of capital investment. Prior to 2015, annual capital spending has been minimal, resulting in declining levels of amortization expense.

Although significant capital expenditures were incurred in 2015 for the purchase of a survey aircraft (in December, 2015) and for leasehold improvements (completed in August 2015), amortization on such applied for only a portion of 2015.

Amortization expense  for 2015 also relates to intellectual property, which was acquired by NXT upon the August 31, 2015 conversion (the “Conversion”) of the final 8 million NXT preferred shares. 

The Conversion gave rise to the application of “fair-value” accounting in Q3-15, whereby the 8 million common shares issued were assigned an estimated fair-value of $18.5 million.  An intellectual property (“IP”) asset related to the technology acquired was recognized at approximately $25.3 million, which included a tax effect gross-up of $6.8 million (as the IP has no corresponding deferred tax pool deduction for ongoing Canadian current income tax purposes).

The IP assets December 31, 2015 net book value of $24.7 million will be amortized on a straight line basis over a 15-year period (future amortization expense of $1,685,000 per year), and will also be subject to ongoing tests of potential impairment of the recorded net book value.

 2720-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

Foreign exchange (gain) loss – gains and losses on foreign exchange are caused by changes in the relative exchange values of the US $, Canadian dollar and to a minor extent, the Colombian peso ("COP"). For example, when the Canadian dollar trades higher relative to the US $, cash held in US $ will decline in value and this decline will be reflected as a foreign exchange loss in the period. We normally hold cash and short-term investments in Canadian dollars to reduce the effect of market volatility; however, we occasionally are contractually obligated to hold certain restricted cash funds in US $ instruments to support performance bond commitments issued for projects in certain foreign countries.

Feasibility study and other expenses – this total includes costs incurred for the following:

  2015 2014 2013
Feasibility study $ 400,104 $ 213,241 -
Intellectual property and R&D   121,348 148,975 $ 93,585
Other, net 7,629 (7,435) 14,400
  529,081  354,781   107,985

 

In the Q4-14 period, NXT commenced a feasibility study undertaken with the aim of monetizing the value of specific portions of our proprietary SFD® data library, and started to incur significant geotechnical and consulting costs related to this project, which continued through mid-2015.

Other expenses includes primarily discretionary costs related to intellectual property / patent filings and R&D activity related to the SFD® technology. Also, minor net expenses are incurred related to pre-2009 minority interests in oil & gas activities.

NXT has certain asset abandonment and reclamation obligations (“ARO”) related to our historical minority working interests in various oil and gas wells in which NXT had participation prior to 2005. At December 31, 2015, the ARO is estimated to be $51,240, based on obligations which are estimated to be settled in the next three years. The net present value of the ARO is estimated based on inflation of 3.4% and discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate of 10%.

Change in fair value of US$ Warrants – until May 2014, we previously had outstanding US$ Warrants (which had a US $1.20 exercise price and a term of two years to expiry in March and May, 2014) that were issued in a $3.2 million private placement equity financing in early 2012. As these US$ Warrants were denominated in a currency other than the company's Canadian $ functional currency, they were classified as "derivative instruments" under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), and were recorded on a fair value basis at each period end (a total of $1,238,000 as at December 31, 2013 and $241,000 at December 31, 2012). This balance was adjusted to its estimated fair value at each period end (until expiry of the US$ Warrants in early 2014), based on the number of US$ Warrants outstanding. These derivative instruments were classified as a liability balance but did not require any ongoing outlay of cash.

We currently have no other outstanding derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency hedges.

Income tax expense - NXT periodically earns revenues while operating outside of Canada in foreign jurisdictions. Payments made to NXT for services rendered to clients and subsidiary companies in certain countries may be subject to foreign income tax with-holdings. Such taxes incurred are only recoverable in certain limited circumstances, including potential utilization in Canada as a foreign tax credit against future taxable earnings from the foreign jurisdictions.

In 2015, NXT expensed foreign income tax with-holdings of $1,755,678 (2014 – $nil) which were incurred on certain charges to a subsidiary company in connection with the Bolivia survey project.  Total current income tax expense for 2015 also includes income taxes payable in Bolivia for NXT’s local operating entity.

On the acquisition of the IP assets in 2015, an estimated deferred income tax liability of $6.8 million arose.  However, NXT has available a significant historic total of previously unrecorded deferred income tax assets (non-capital / operating losses and other tax pools available for Canadian income tax purposes of approximately $29 million at December 31, 2015), and therefore a deferred tax recovery / benefit of $6.8 million was recognized in 2015 which offset the balance sheet impact of this deferred tax liability.  A total net income tax recovery was recognized in 2015 as follows:

 2820-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

    2015 2014 2013
Foreign with-holding taxes incurred   $ 1,755,678 - 399,546
Corporate income tax expense – foreign   215,230 - -
    1,970,908 - 399,546
Defered tax recovery   (6,823,000) - -
Net tax expense (recovery)   (4,852,092) - 399,546

At the end of 2015, NXT has available for future Canadian income tax deduction purposes significant unrecorded deferred income tax assets, the benefit of which has only been partially recorded in the Company’s financial statements due to uncertainty regarding the amount and timing of their potential future utilization. These deferred income tax assets include non-capital losses carried-forward (expiring in 2030 to 2035) and other resource deductions totaling approximately $29 million.

Summary of Quarterly Results (Unaudited)

A summary of operating results for each of the trailing 8 quarters (including a comparison to each respective prior quarter) follows. The extent of the profit or loss each quarter is mainly due to the timing and the number of survey contracts that are underway, and variances in such non-cash items as SBCE, which can occasionally be a significant expense in any given quarter. In addition, in Q3-12, we commenced to recognize significant adjustments to the fair value of "derivative instruments", which include US$ Warrants to purchase NXT common shares.

Two survey projects (in Florida in Texas) commenced for a US based client in late December 2013, with the project completed and the related revenue and work-in-progress costs recognized in the Q1-14 period.

 

B.         Liquidity and capital resources.

 

Our sources of liquidity include cash flow from operations and the use of equity financings as needed. At present, there are no bank debt facilities available to us. We expect that our current working capital is sufficient to meet our present requirements.

We do not presently have any legal or economic restrictions that would affect the ability of any subsidiaries to transfer funds to us. As of the last fiscal year end, and the present date, we do not have any material outstanding commitments for capital expenditures that require funding.

NXT's cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments at the end of Q4-15 was $9.1 million.

Prior to Q2-15, NXT’s financial statements reflected various disclosures related to the use of the “going concern” basis of presentation. Significant progress was made in 2015 in expanding the business, including securing, executing, and delivering the sizeable Bolivia survey contract, which resulted in a significant expansion of our liquidity and working capital.

NXT's longer term success remains dependent upon our ability to continue to attract new client projects and expand the revenue base to a level sufficient to far exceed G&A expenses, and generate excess net cash flow from operations. Equity financings have been used on a limited basis in recent years to supplement working capital as required.

Private placement financings totaling $3.2 million ($2.9 million net of finders fees and share issue costs incurred) were conducted in early 2012 to enhance NXT's financial strength and fund its expansion plans. This financing also included the US$ Warrants (which had a term of two years, expiring in March and May 2014), for which exercise proceeds of US $1.0 million were received in Q4-13 and US $2.5 million in 2014.

Risks related to having sufficient ongoing working capital to execute survey project contracts are mitigated through our normal practice of obtaining progress payments from clients throughout the course of the projects, which often span 3 to 4 months. In addition, where possible, risk of default on client billings is mitigated through the use of export insurance programs offered via Export Development Canada (“EDC”).

EDC can also be utilized by NXT for financial support in the form of guarantees of specific bank letters of credit required to be issued by NXT as performance guarantees on international projects, such as was utilized on our project for YPFB in Bolivia. This aids in reducing restrictions on working capital that is needed to initiate and undertake projects.

NXT has minimal secured debt and had total “net working capital” of $7.5 million as at Q4-15 as follows:

 3020-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

  December 31, December 31, net change
  2015 2014 in 2015
Current assets (current liabilities):      
     Cash and cash equivalents $ 7,085,803 $ 50,635 $ 7,035,168
     Short-term investments 2,055,478 5,173,430 (3,117,952)
  9,141,281 5,224,065 3,917,216
     Restricted cash 75,000 - 75,000
     Accounts receivable 810,400 248,930 561,470
     Prepaid expenses and deposits 260,397 338,644 (78,247)
     Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (1,163,783) (782,626) (381,157)
     Income taxes payable (1,253,126) - (1,253,126)
     Current portion of capital lease obligation (34,159) - (34,159)
Net working capital before the undernoted items 7,836,010 5,029,013 2,806,997
Additional asset (liability) amounts:      
     Work-in-progress 404,840 - 404,840
     Deferred revenue (706,722) - (706,722)
  (301,882) - (301,882)
Net working capital 7,534,128 5,029,013 2,505,115

 

The above noted $2.5 million increase in net working capital at Q4-15 is primarily due to the $4.1 million net income generated for 2015. The higher totals for individual components noted above for the total net working capital balance at December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014 relates to:

·an increased level of operating activity in conducting the Bolivia survey project.
·a portion of the 2015 Bolivia survey projects were delivered to the client in January 2016, giving rise to the $706,722 deferred revenue and $404,840 work-in-process (or deferred costs) balances at December 31, 2015. There were no amounts recorded in work-in-progress ("WIP", a current asset) and deferred revenue at December 31, 2014.
·a new capital lease obligation of $200,000 arose in 2015, used to finance a small portion of the leasehold improvement costs incurred.

NXT applies the "completed contract" method of revenue recognition - revenues and related project costs are deferred until the period in which the survey contract is completed. At each period end, if applicable, deferred revenue (a current liability) represents progress billing amounts that are to be recognized in revenue in future periods. Similarly, WIP relates to deferred survey costs which will be expensed in future periods upon completion of the related contracts. As these amounts will not result in additional future cash inflows or outflows to the Company, they are excluded (in periods in which applicable) from NXT’s above noted table / analysis of net working capital.

This discussion includes references to terms such as “net working capital” and “net working capital before the undernoted items”, which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.  NXT management uses this non-GAAP measure to improve our ability to assess liquidity at a point in time.  Net working capital is defined as total current assets less total current liabilities, excluding amounts accumulated in work in progress and deferred revenue.  Management excludes these amounts from the calculation as they do not represent future cash inflows or outflows to the Company.

NXT utilizes the above noted sub-total line “net working capital before the undernoted items” to assess a more relevant measure of financial liquidity (excluding items classified as liabilities such as deferred revenue balances) as at the period end date.

Total 9,141,281 5,224,065 5,769,077

 

Operating Activities

Net cash flow from operating activities listed above is a function of net income (loss) for the year, an add back of the net non-cash revenue and expense items (such as SBCE, amortization expense, deferred tax expense (recovery), and in 2013, the change in fair value of derivative instruments), and the net change in year-end working capital items (for example, a net decrease in working capital in the year gives rise to a source of cash), with these components each year as follows:

For the year ended December 31 2015 2014 2013
Comprehensive income (loss) for the year $ 10,540,228 $ (1,563,361) $ (5,341,561)
Add back net non-cash expense and income items (4,948,061) 753,402 1,951,731
  5,592,167 (809,959) (3,389,830)

Total cash provided by (used in) in operations 6,984,922 (3,581,186) (774,958)

 

Financing Activities

2015 – the overall net cash from financing activities of $327,824 reflects:

·$335,946 of proceeds from exercise of a total of 347,266 NXT stock options.
·$8,122 used for repayment of the new capital lease obligation which was entered into in 2015.

2014 - no equity financings occurred in 2014 or 2013. In 2014, NXT received a total of $2,735,995 proceeds from exercise of US$ Warrants (which had an exercise price of US $1.20 per common share and which had been issued in a private placement equity financing in 2012) and $288,066 proceeds from exercise of a total of 482,665 stock options.

2013 – no financings occurred in 2013. The net cash source of $1,077,456 reflects $1,064,222 proceeds from exercise of a portion of the US$ Warrants that had been issued in 2012, plus $13,234 proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

 3220-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

Investing Activities

2015 – the overall net cash used in investing activities of $277,578 for 2015 reflects these components:

·a use of $3,380,717 for net capital additions, which relate primarily to $2.7 million for a survey aircraft acquired in December 2015 and $0.6 million net cash paid for leasehold improvement costs incurred ($0.8 million costs net of a tenant leasehold improvement allowance received, and less $0.2 million of capital lease financing) for construction of the new office facility, which NXT moved to in August, 2015.
·a source of $3,117,652 from a net decrease in cash invested in short-term investments.
·a use of $75,000 related to an increase in restricted cash balances (issued for bank security purposes).
·a source of $60,187 arising from an increase in non-cash working capital balances related to investing activities.

2014 - the overall net cash used in investing activities of $2,711,867 reflects three components:

·a $2,723,980 use relating to a movement from cash into short-term, interest bearing investments.
·A $53,921 source from a decrease in restricted cash balances. Restricted cash balances relate primarily to balances used as security for bank letters of credit, which are often required to be issued to foreign clients as performance guarantees for survey contracts.
·and $41,808 used in purchases of property and equipment.

 

2013 - the overall net cash used in investing activities of $2,035,465 reflects three components:

·a $2,394,450 use relating to a movement from cash into short-term, interest bearing investments.
·A $379,448 source from a decrease in restricted cash balances. Restricted cash balances relate primarily to balances used as security for bank letters of credit, which are often required to be issued to foreign clients as performance guarantees for survey contracts.
·and $20,463 used in purchases of property and equipment.

 

C. Research and development, patents and licenses, etc.

There was no separate R&D expense reported in the financial statements in the years 2015, 2014 and 2013. In these three years, expenditures related to R&D were included within general and administrative expense (related to a portion of staff salaries and overhead) and in other expense (for patent filings and related costs).

D. Trend information.

We have historically conducted a limited number of service contracts each year, the dollar value and timing of securing and ultimate delivery of which are subject to numerous external factors. As at April 26, 2016 we do not have a significant committed “backlog” or order book of contracts to be performed.

We are not aware of any current external trends (such as in commodity prices, etc.) which could affect our operations for the next fiscal year. As noted previously, the amount and timing of our annual revenues can vary widely year to year, as we derive our revenues from a limited number of service contracts each year, and each individual contract may have a large effect on the aggregate annual revenues and profits. For example, in 2012, we conducted our first contract with PEMEX, the National Oil Company of Mexico. This project was completed in 2012 and was our largest to that time, at US $5.8 million. In 2015, projects totaling US $13 million were completed in Bolivia for YPFB. We continue to seek future business projects with large exploration clients such as PEMEX and YPFB, with the aim of having each new client become an ongoing repeat customer.

 3320-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

E.         Off-balance sheet arrangements.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

F.         Tabular disclosure of contractual obligations.

ITEM 7.         MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

A.Major shareholders.

The following table sets forth information concerning the beneficial ownership of our common shares as of April 26, 2016 by persons who beneficially own 5% or more of the outstanding common shares of NXT, each person who is a director of NXT, each executive officer named in this Form 20-F, each individual referenced in Item 6.E above and all directors and executive officers as a group. For the purposes of this Form 20-F, a person is considered to be a “beneficial owner” of common shares in the company if that person has, or shares with another person, the power to direct the vote or disposition of the common shares or to receive the economic benefit of ownership of the common shares.

A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of a common share if that person has the right to acquire the share within 60 days by option or other agreement (whether or not, in the case of a stock option, the current market price of the underlying common share is below the stock option exercise price). Therefore, the table below also reflects, for each such beneficial owner, the number of options exercisable into common shares within 60 days of April 26, 2016 that are owned by each beneficial owner, but, in determining the percentage ownership and general voting power of such person, does not assume the exercise of options or the conversion of securities owned by any other person.

We believe that the beneficial owners of common shares listed below, based on information they furnished, have sole voting and investment power over the number of shares listed opposite their names. The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 53,308,009 common shares issued and outstanding as of April 26, 2016. This total of 53,308,009 excludes all outstanding options and warrants that are exercisable within 60 days of April 26, 2016 (which is adjusted for each individuals’ % purposes as noted in footnote 5 below).

Mork Capital Management, MCAPM, L.P. and its principal, Mr. Michael Mork.

5 For each beneficial owner’s percentage of common shares calculation, it is assumed that any stock options that they hold which are or will become exercisable within 60 days of April 26, 2016 have been exercised (while also assuming that no one else similarly exercises), and such options are thus included in both the numerator and denominator for purposes of each of their own individual calculations as follows:

Major changes in the last 3 years in the percentage ownership of persons who beneficially own (as at the respective December 31, year-end dates) 5% or more of the outstanding common shares of NXT were:

 

·in May 2013, George Liszicasz acquired 2,000,000 common shares upon conversion of an initial total of 2,000,000 of the 10,000,000 preferred shares which he held.
·In August 2015, the remaining 8,000,000 preferred shares were converted into 8,000,000 common shares issued to George Liszicasz pursuant to completion of the acquisition of the SFD® technology under the terms of the TTA.
·In 2014, John Tilson exercised 200,000 US$ Warrants to acquire 200,000 NXT common shares at an exercise price of US $1.20 per common share. The US$ Warrants had been acquired in 2012 through participation in a $3.2 million private placement equity financing by NXT, under which Mr. Tilson acquired 200,000 “Units” (which consisted of one common share and one US$ Warrant, expiring in 2014, to acquire a common share at a price of US $1.20) at a price of US $0.75 per Unit.

 

The following information is taken from the records of Computershare Trust Company of Canada, located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, the company's transfer agent for its common shares. As of April 26, 2016 there were 140 registered holders of record of the company's common shares, including 81 in the United States who collectively held 20,947,946 common shares, representing 39.3% of NXT’s 53,308,009 total issued and outstanding common shares.

 4720-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

NXT is a foreign private issuer for its current fiscal year. As of the last business day of the company’s second fiscal quarter, the majority of the company’s executive officers and directors are Canadian citizens who reside in Canada, the majority of the company’s assets are in Canada, and the company is administered principally in Canada. The company’s major shareholders in common shares have the same voting rights as other holders of common shares. The company is not directly or indirectly owned or controlled by another corporation, a foreign government or any other natural or legal persons severally or jointly. There are no arrangements known to the company which may result in a change of control of the company.

 

 

B.Related party transactions.

Summarized below are certain other transactions and business relationships between NXT and persons who are related parties, for the current fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 through the current date, April 26, 2016:

·One of the members of NXT’s Board of directors is a partner in a law firm which provides legal advice to NXT. In 2015, NXT incurred legal expenses of $100,598 with this firm, for which a total of $62,048 is included in accounts payable as at December 31, 2015.
·

Accounts receivable includes short-term loans due from two employees totaling $51,026. These loans mature on October 1, 2016, and bear interest at a variable rate, which is currently 1%.

·There were no stock options to acquire common shares of the company exercised in 2015 by persons who were directors or officers of NXT as at the date of their exercise. Mr. John Agee exercised a total of 250,000 stock options subsequent to his resignation from the Board, which was effective June 8, 2015.

ITEM 10. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

A. Share capital.

Not applicable.

B. Memorandum and articles of association.

NXT was incorporated in the State of Nevada. With respect to the foregoing items, the law applicable to NXT in the Province of Alberta is not significantly different from that in the State of Nevada. NXT was established in Alberta pursuant to a Certificate of Continuance issued October 24, 2003 by the Registrar of Corporations of the Province of Alberta. NXT’s Alberta Corporate Access Number is 2010730915. The Articles of Continuance of NXT were amended to create the Series 1 Preferred Shares on December 28, 2006, and provide that there are no restrictions on the nature of the business that may be carried on by NXT. On September 19, 2008, pursuant to Articles of Amendment, the name of the company was changed from Energy Exploration Technologies Inc. to NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

Quorum

The Board of directors of NXT may fix the quorum for meetings of the Board or of a committee of the Board, but unless so fixed, a majority of the directors or of a committee of directors holding office at the time of the meeting constitutes a quorum provided that no business may be transacted unless at least half of the directors present are resident Canadians. Business cannot be transacted without a quorum. A quorum of directors may vote on any matter of business properly brought before the meeting provided that where a director is a party to a material contract or proposed material contract or is a director or an officer of or has a material interest in any person who is a party to a material contract or proposed material contract with NXT, such director must disclose his or her interest at the earliest possible date, request the conflict be noted in the minutes of the meeting and, with few exceptions, refrain from voting on the matter in which the director has a conflict of interest. There is no limitation on the Board of directors to vote on matters of their remuneration as a director, officer, employee or agent of NXT or of an affiliate of NXT.

 

Borrowing Powers

The Board of directors may, without authorization of the shareholders of NXT:

(a)borrow money on the credit of NXT;
(b)issue, reissue, sell or pledge debt obligations of NXT;
 5020-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   
(c)subject to restrictions respecting financial assistance prescribed in the ABCA, guarantee, on behalf of NXT, the performance of an obligation of any person; and
(d)mortgage, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise create a security interest in all or any property of NXT, owned or subsequently acquired, to secure any obligation of NXT.

 

The Board of directors of NXT may, by resolution, delegate to a director, a committee of directors or an officer all or any of the foregoing borrowing powers.

 

Directors

A person is qualified to be or stand for election as a director provided such person is at least 18 years of age, is not bankrupt and is not mentally incapacitated pursuant to applicable mental health legislation of the Province of Alberta or pursuant to an order of the courts of the Province of Alberta. There is no provision in NXT’s Articles or By-Laws relating to the retirement or non-retirement of directors under an age limit requirement. There is also no requirement in NXT’s Articles or By-Laws for a director to hold securities of NXT.

 

Pursuant to the ABCA, a director or officer shall not be disqualified by his office, or be required to vacate his office, by reason only that he is a party to, or is a director or officer or has a material interest in any person who is a party to, a material contract or proposed material contract with NXT or subsidiary thereof. Such a director or officer shall, however, disclose the nature and extent of his interest in the contract at the time and in the manner provided by the ABCA. Any such contract or proposed contract shall be referred to the Board of directors of NXT or shareholders for approval even if such contract is one that in the ordinary course of NXT's business would not require approval by the Board or shareholders. Subject to the provisions of the ABCA, a director shall not by reason only of his office be accountable to NXT or to its shareholders for any profit or gain realized from such a contract or transaction, and such contract or transaction shall not be void or voidable by reason only of the director's interest therein, provided that the required declaration and disclosure of interest is properly made, the contract or transaction is approved by the directors or shareholders, and it is fair and reasonable to NXT at the time it was approved and, if required by the ABCA, the director refrains from voting as a director on the contract or transaction and absents himself from the director's meeting at which the contract is authorized or approved by the directors, except attendance for the purpose of being counted in the quorum.

 

Rights Attached to Common Shares

The holders of the common shares are entitled to dividends as and when declared by the directors of NXT, to one vote per share at meetings of shareholders of NXT, and upon liquidation, subject to the rights of the holders of preferred shares, are entitled to share rateably with the holders of the common shares in all distributions of assets of NXT.

 

Rights Attached to Preferred Shares

Preferred shares may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board of directors of NXT is expressly authorized to provide by resolution duly adopted prior to issuance, for the creation of each such series and to fix the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attached to the shares of each such series, including the rate or amount of dividends or the method of calculating dividends, the dates of payment of dividends, the redemption, purchase and/or conversion prices and terms and conditions of redemption, purchase and/or conversion, and any sinking fund or other provisions.

 

The preferred shares of each series shall, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets or return of capital in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of NXT, whether voluntary or involuntary, or any other return of capital or distribution of the assets of NXT among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, rank on a parity with the preferred shares of every other series and be entitled to preference over the common shares and over any other shares of NXT, if any, ranking junior to the preferred shares. The preferred shares of any series may also be given other preferences, not inconsistent with the articles of continuance of NXT (the "Articles"), over the common shares and any other shares of NXT ranking junior to the preferred shares of a series as may be fixed by the Board of directors of NXT.

 

 5120-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

If any cumulative dividends or amounts payable on the return of capital in respect of a series of preferred shares are not paid in full, all series of preferred shares shall participate rateably in respect of accumulated dividends and return of capital.

 

Unless the Board of directors of NXT otherwise determine in the articles of amendment designating a series of preferred shares, the holder of each share of a series of preferred shares shall not, as such, be entitled to receive notice of or vote at any meeting of shareholders, except as otherwise specifically provided in the ABCA.

 

Rights Attached to Preferred Shares - Series 1

NXT is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 preferred shares - Series 1. In 2006, NXT issued 10,000,000 non-voting, convertible preferred shares - Series 1 (the “Series 1 Shares”), of which none remained outstanding as at December 31, 2015 following their conversion on a 1 for 1 basis into NXT common shares on August 31, 2015 pursuant to the terms of the TTA (see prior discussion in Item 4.B.) which had a maturity date of December 31, 2015.

 

Alteration of the Rights of Shareholders

Under the ABCA, any substantive change to the Articles (including, but not limited to, change of any maximum number of shares that NXT is authorized to issue, creation of new classes of shares, add, change or remove any rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions in respect of all or any of its shares, whether issued or unissued, change the shares of any class or series, whether issued or unissued, into a different number of shares of the same class or series or into the same or a different number of shares of other classes or series) or other fundamental changes to the capital structure of NXT, including a proposed amalgamation or continuance of NXT out of the jurisdiction, requires shareholder approval by not less than 2/3 of the votes cast by shareholders voting in person or by proxy at a shareholders’ meeting called for that purpose. In certain prescribed circumstances, holders of shares of a class or of a series are entitled to vote separately as a class or series on a proposal to amend the Articles whether or not shares of a class or series otherwise carry the right to vote. The holders of a series of shares of a class are entitled to vote separately as a series only if the series is affected by an amendment in a manner different from other shares of the same class.

 

Meetings of Shareholders

NXT’s By-Laws provide that the Board of directors shall call an annual meeting of shareholders to be held not later than fifteen months after holding the last preceding annual meeting. NXT’s By-Laws provide that the Board of directors may at any time call a special meeting of shareholders. Only the registered holders of shares are entitled to receive notice of and vote at annual and special meetings of shareholders, except to the extent that:

 

(a)if a record date is fixed, the person transfers ownership of any of the person’s shares after the record date; or

 

(b)if no record date is fixed, the person transfers ownership of any of the person’s shares after the date on which the list of shareholders is prepared; and
(c)the transferee of those shares;
§produces properly endorsed share certificates; or
§otherwise establishes ownership of the shares; and
§demands, not later than ten (10) days before the meeting, that the transferee’s name be included in the list before the meeting;

 

in which case the transferee is entitled to vote the shares.

 

The ABCA also permits the holders of not less than 5% of the issued voting securities of NXT to give notice to the Board of directors requiring them to call and hold a meeting of NXT.

 

The only persons entitled to be present at a meeting of shareholders are:

 

 5220-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   
(a)the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting;
(b)the Board of directors of NXT;
(c)the external auditor of NXT; and
(d)any others who, although not entitled or required under the provisions of the ABCA, any unanimous shareholder agreement, or the Articles or the By-Laws, are allowed to be present at the meeting.

 

Any other person may be admitted only on the invitation of the Chairperson of the meeting or with the consent of the meeting.

 

There are no restrictions in NXT’s Articles or By-Laws as to the number of shares that may be held by non-residents other than restrictions set out in the Investment Canada Act (the “ICA”) (Canada), as further described under Item 10.D – “Exchange Controls” below.

 

Change of Control

There are no specific provisions in the Articles or By-Laws of NXT that have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of NXT and that would operate only with respect to a merger, acquisition or corporate restructuring involving NXT (or any of its subsidiaries). Notwithstanding this, the Board of directors, under the general powers conferred to it under NXT’s By-Laws, have the authority to approve and invoke a shareholders rights plan that will protect shareholders from unfair, abusive or coercive take-over strategies, including the acquisition or control of NXT by a bidder in a transaction or series of transactions that does not treat all shareholders equally or fairly or that does not afford all shareholders an equal opportunity to share in any premium paid upon an acquisition of control. NXT has not adopted such a plan.

 

Shareholder Ownership Disclosure

There are no provisions in NXT’s By-Laws regarding public disclosure of individual shareholdings.

 

C.         Material contracts.

 

Each material contract, other than contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, to which the company has been a party, for the two years immediately preceding publication of this annual report, is summarized elsewhere herein.

 

D.         Exchange controls.

There are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada relating to restrictions on the export or import of capital, or affecting the remittance of interest, dividends or other payments to non-residents. Dividends paid to U.S. residents, however, are subject to a 15% withholding tax or a 5% withholding tax for dividends if the shareholder is a corporation owning at least 10% of the outstanding voting shares of NXT pursuant to Article X of the reciprocal tax treaty between Canada and the U.S.

 

Except as provided in the ICA, which has provisions that restrict the holding of voting shares by non-Canadians, there are no limitations specific to the rights of non-Canadians to hold or vote the common shares under the laws of Canada or the Province of Alberta, or in the charter documents of NXT or its subsidiaries.

 

Management of NXT believes that the following summary fairly describes those provisions of the ICA pertinent to an investment in NXT by a person who is not a Canadian resident (a “non-Canadian”).

 

The ICA requires a non-Canadian making an investment which would result in the acquisition of control of a Canadian business (i.e. the gross value of the assets of which exceed a certain monetary threshold) to identify, notify, or file an application for review with the Investment Review Division of Industry Canada (“IRD”).

 

The notification procedure involves a brief statement of information about the investment on a prescribed form which is required to be filed with the IRD by the investor at any time up to 30 days following implementation of the investment. It is intended that investments requiring only notification will proceed without government intervention unless the investment is in a specific type of business activity related to Canada’s cultural heritage and national identity.

 5320-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

If an investment is reviewable under the ICA, an application for review in the form prescribed is normally required to be filed with the IRD prior to the investment taking place and the investment may not be implemented until the review has been completed and the Minister of Industry Canada (the “Minister”) (the Minister responsible for Investment Canada) is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada. The Minister has up to 75 days to make this determination. If the Minister is not satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada, the non-Canadian must not implement the investment or, if the investment has been implemented, may be required to divest himself of control of the business that is the subject of the investment.

 

The following investments by non-Canadians are subject to notification under the ICA:

1.An investment to establish a new Canadian business; and
2.An investment to acquire control of a Canadian business that is not reviewable pursuant to the Act.

 

The following investments by a non-Canadian are subject to review under the ICA:

 

1.An investment is reviewable if there is an acquisition of a Canadian business and the asset value of the Canadian business being acquired equals or exceeds the following thresholds:

 

(a)For non-World Trade Organization (“WTO”) investors, the threshold is $5 million for a direct acquisition and $50 million for an indirect acquisition; the $5 million threshold will apply however for an indirect acquisition if the asset value of the Canadian business being acquired exceeds 50% of the asset value of the global transaction;

 

(b)Except as specified in paragraph (c) below, a threshold is calculated annually for reviewable direct acquisitions by or from WTO investors. The threshold for 2012 was $330 million. Pursuant to Canada’s international commitments, indirect acquisitions by or from WTO investors are not reviewable;

 

(c)The limits set out in paragraph (a) apply to all investors for acquisitions of a Canadian business that:

                                       (i)      engages in the production of uranium and owns an interest in a producing uranium property in Canada;

                                     (ii)      provides any financial service;

                                    (iii)      provides any transportation services; or

                                    (iv)      is a cultural business.

 

Notwithstanding the above, any investment which is usually only notifiable, including the establishment of a new Canadian business, and which falls within a specific business activity, including the publication and distribution of books, magazines, newspapers, film or video recordings, audio or video music recordings, or music in print or machine-readable form may be reviewed if an Order-in-Council directing a review is made and a notice is sent to the investor within 21 days following the receipt of a certified complete notification.

 

Generally speaking, an acquisition is direct if it involves the acquisition of control of the Canadian business or of its direct or indirect Canadian parent and an acquisition is indirect if it involves the acquisition of control of a non-Canadian direct or indirect parent of an entity carrying on the Canadian business. No change of voting control will be deemed to have occurred if less than one-third of the voting control of a Canadian corporation is acquired by an investor.

 

A WTO investor, as defined in the ICA, includes an individual who is a national of a member country of the WTO or who has the right of permanent residence in relation to that WTO member, a government or government agency of a WTO investor-controlled corporation, a limited partnership, trust or joint venture that is neither WTO-investor controlled or Canadian controlled of which two-thirds of its Board of directors, general partners or trustees, as the case may be, are any combination of Canadians and WTO investors.

 

 5420-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

The ICA exempts certain transactions from the notification and review provisions of ICA, including, among others, (a) an acquisition of voting shares if the acquisition were made in the ordinary course of that person’s business as a trader or dealer in securities; (b) an acquisition of control of the company in connection with the realization of a security interest granted for a loan or other financial assistance and not for any purpose related to the provisions of the ICA; (c) the acquisition of voting interests by any person in the ordinary course of a business carried on by that person that consists of providing, in Canada, venture capital on terms and conditions not inconsistent with such terms and conditions as may be fixed by the Minister; and (d) acquisition of control of the company by reason of an amalgamation, merger, consolidation or corporate reorganization, following which the ultimate direct or indirect control in fact of the company, through the ownership of voting interests, remains unchanged.

 

E.          Taxation.

 

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

The following is a general summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to a U.S. Holder (as defined below) arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares of the company.

 

This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a U.S. Holder arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder, including specific tax consequences to a U.S. Holder under an applicable tax treaty. Except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any U.S. Holder. This summary is not intended to be relied upon, and cannot be relied upon by you, for the purposes of avoiding penalties that may be imposed on you under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares.

 

No legal opinion from U.S. legal counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the positions taken in this summary.

 

Scope of this Summary

 

Authorities

This summary is based on the Code, Treasury Regulations (whether final, temporary, or proposed), published rulings of the IRS, published administrative positions of the IRS, U.S. court decisions, the Convention Between Canada and the United States of America with Respect to Taxes on Income and Capital, signed September 26, 1980, as amended (the “Canada-U.S. Tax Convention”), and U.S. court decisions that are applicable and, in each case, as in effect and available, as of the date of this document. Any of the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis which could affect the U.S. federal income tax considerations described in this summary. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis.

 

U.S. Holders

For purposes of this summary, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of common shares that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

·an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S.;
 5520-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   
·a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
·an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
·a trust that (a) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the U.S. and the control of one or more U.S. persons for all substantial decisions or (b) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

 

Non-U.S. Holders

For purposes of this summary, a “non-U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of common shares that is not a U.S. Holder. This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. Holders arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. Accordingly, a non-U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences (including the potential application of and operation of any income tax treaties) relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares.

 

U.S. Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules Not Addressed

This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders that: (a) are tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts; (b) are financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, or regulated investment companies; (c) are dealers in securities or currencies or U.S. Holders that are traders in securities or currencies that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method; (d) have a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar; (e) own common shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, constructive sale, or other arrangement involving more than one position; (f) acquired common shares in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services; (g) hold common shares other than as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment purposes); (h) are partnerships and other pass-through entities (and investors in such partnerships and entities); or (i) own or have owned (directly, indirectly, or by attribution) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of the outstanding shares of the company.

This summary also does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders who are: (a) U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.; (b) persons that have been, are, or will be a resident or deemed to be a resident in Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”); (c) persons that use or hold, will use or hold, or that are or will be deemed to use or hold common shares in connection with carrying on a business in Canada; (d) persons whose common shares constitute “taxable Canadian property” under the Tax Act; or (e) persons that have a permanent establishment in Canada for the purposes of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention. U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders described immediately above, should consult their own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares.

 

If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or other “pass-through” entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds common shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such entity and the partners (or other owners) of such entity generally will depend on the activities of the entity and the status of such partners (or owners). This summary does not discuss the U.S. federal tax consequences to partners (or owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships. Partners (or other owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships or as “pass-through” entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares.

 

Tax Consequences Not Addressed

This summary does not address the U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and foreign tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares.

 5620-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Acquisition, Ownership, and Disposition of Our Common Shares

 

The following discussion is subject in its entirety to the rules described below under the heading “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules.”

 

Distributions on Common Shares

A U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to a common share will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current or accumulated “earnings and profits” of the company, as computed for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A dividend generally will be taxed to a U.S. Holder at ordinary income tax rates. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated “earnings and profits” of the company, such distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such common shares (see “Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Shares” below). However, the company does not intend to maintain calculations of its earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and each U.S. Holder should therefore assume that any distribution by the company with respect to the common shares will constitute ordinary dividend income. Dividends received on common shares generally will not be eligible for the “dividends received deduction.”

 

Subject to applicable limitations and provided that the company is eligible for the benefits of the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention or the common shares are readily tradable on a United States securities market, dividends paid by the company to non-corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains for dividends, provided certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied, including that the company not be classified as a PFIC (as defined below) in the tax year of distribution or in the preceding tax year. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of such rules.

 

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Shares

A U.S. Holder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between (a) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and (b) such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such common shares sold or otherwise disposed of. Any such gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss, which will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the sale or other disposition, such common shares are held for more than one year.

 

Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares generally will be treated as “U.S. source” for purposes of applying the U.S. foreign tax credit rules unless the gain is subject to tax in Canada, is sourced as “foreign source” under the Canada-U.S. Tax Convention and such U.S. Holder elects to treat such gain or loss as “foreign source.”

 

Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gains of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code.

 

Additional Tax on Passive Income

Certain individuals, estates and trusts whose income exceeds certain thresholds will be required to pay a 3.8% Medicare surtax on "net investment income" including, among other things, dividends and net gain from dispositions of property (other than property held in certain trades or businesses). Special rules apply to PFICs. U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of this tax on their ownership and disposition of common shares.

 

Receipt of Foreign Currency

 5720-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

The amount of any distribution paid in foreign currency to a U.S. Holder in connection with the ownership of common shares, or on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares, generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt (regardless of whether such foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time). A U.S. Holder that receives foreign currency and converts such foreign currency into U.S. dollars at a conversion rate other than the rate in effect on the date of receipt may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss, which generally would be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss. If the foreign currency received is not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. Holder will have a basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any U.S. Holder who receives payment in foreign currency and engages in a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the foreign currency may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss that would be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit purposes. Different rules apply to U.S. Holders who use the accrual method of tax accounting. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign currency.

 

Foreign Tax Credit

A U.S. Holder who pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends paid on common shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax paid. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder’s income subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year.

 

Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder’s “foreign source” taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder’s worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder’s various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either “foreign source” or “U.S. source”. Generally, dividends paid by a foreign corporation should be treated as foreign source for this purpose, and gains recognized on the sale of stock of a foreign corporation by a U.S. Holder should be treated as U.S. source for this purpose, except as otherwise provided in an applicable income tax treaty, and if an election is properly made under the Code. However, the amount of a distribution with respect to the common shares that is treated as a “dividend” may be lower for U.S. federal income tax purposes than it is for Canadian federal income tax purposes, resulting in a reduced foreign tax credit allowance to a U.S. Holder. In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income. Dividends paid by the company generally will constitute “foreign source” income and generally will be categorized as “passive income.”

 

The foreign tax credit rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the foreign tax credit rules.

 

Information Reporting; Backup Withholding Tax for Certain Payments

Under U.S. federal income tax law and regulations, certain categories of U.S. Holders must file information returns with respect to their investment in, or involvement in, a foreign corporation. For example, U.S. return disclosure obligations (and related penalties) are imposed on individuals who are U.S. Holders that hold certain specified foreign financial assets in excess of certain threshold amounts. The definition of specified foreign financial assets includes not only financial accounts maintained in foreign financial institutions, but also, unless held in accounts maintained by a financial institution, any stock or security issued by a non-U.S. person, any financial instrument or contract held for investment that has an issuer or counterparty other than a U.S. person and any interest in a foreign entity. U. S. Holders may be subject to these reporting requirements unless their common shares are held in an account at certain financial institutions. Penalties for failure to file certain of these information returns are substantial. U.S. Holders of common shares should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing information returns, including the requirements to file IRS Form 8938.

 

Payments made within the U.S., or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, of dividends on, and proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of, common shares generally will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax, at the current rate of 28%, if a U.S. Holder (a) fails to furnish such U.S. Holder’s correct U.S. taxpayer identification number (generally on IRS Form W-9), (b) furnishes an incorrect U.S. taxpayer identification number, (c) is notified by the IRS that such U.S. Holder has previously failed to properly report items subject to backup withholding tax, or (d) fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that such U.S. Holder has furnished its correct U.S. taxpayer identification number and that the IRS has not notified such U.S. Holder that it is subject to backup withholding tax. However, certain exempt persons, such as corporations, generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding tax rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will be refunded, if such U.S. Holder furnishes required information to the IRS in a timely manner.

 5820-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

The discussion of reporting requirements set forth above is not intended to constitute a complete description of all reporting requirements that may apply to a U.S. Holder. A failure to satisfy certain reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time during which the IRS can assess a tax, and under certain circumstances, such an extension may apply to assessments of amounts unrelated to any unsatisfied reporting requirement. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the information reporting and backup withholding rules.

 

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

 

If the company were to constitute a PFIC (as defined below) for any year during a U.S. Holder’s holding period, then certain different and potentially adverse rules will affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder resulting from the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares. In addition, in any year in which the company is classified as a PFIC, such holder would be required to file an annual report with the IRS containing such information as Treasury Regulations and/or other IRS guidelines may require.

 

The company generally will be a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) under Section 1297 of the Code if, for a tax year, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of the company for such tax year is passive income (the “income test”) or (b) 50% or more of the value of the assets held by the company either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income, based on the quarterly average of the fair market value of such assets (the “asset test”). “Gross income” generally includes sales revenues less the cost of goods sold, plus income from investments and from incidental or outside operations or sources, and “passive income” includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions. Active business gains arising from the sale of commodities generally are excluded from passive income if substantially all (85% or more) of a foreign corporation’s commodities are stock in trade or inventory, depreciable property used in a trade or business or supplies regularly used or consumed in the ordinary course of its trade or business, and certain other requirements are satisfied.

 

In addition, for purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, if the company owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the total value of the outstanding shares of another corporation, the company will be treated as if it (a) held a proportionate share of the assets of such other corporation and (b) received directly a proportionate share of the income of such other corporation. In addition, for purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, “passive income” does not include any interest, dividends, rents, or royalties that are received or accrued by the company from a “related person” (as defined in Section 954(d)(3) of the Code), to the extent such items are properly allocable to the income of such related person that is not passive income.

 

Under certain attribution rules, if the company is a PFIC, U.S. Holders will be deemed to own their proportionate share of any subsidiary of the company which is also a PFIC (a ‘‘Subsidiary PFIC’’), and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on (i) a distribution on the shares of a Subsidiary PFIC or (ii) a disposition of shares of a Subsidiary PFIC, both as if the holder directly held the shares of such Subsidiary PFIC.

 

The company believes that it was not a PFIC during the tax year ending December 31, 2015. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the status of the company as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested. The determination of whether any corporation was, or will be, a PFIC for a tax year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. In addition, whether any corporation will be a PFIC for any tax year depends on the assets and income of such corporation over the course of each such tax year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this document. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge any determination made by the company (or a Subsidiary PFIC) concerning its PFIC status or that the company (and each Subsidiary PFIC) was not, or will not be, a PFIC for any tax year. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the PFIC status of the company and each Subsidiary PFIC.

 5920-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

If the company were a PFIC in any tax year that a U.S. Holder held common shares, such holder generally would be subject to special rules with respect to “excess distributions” made by the company on the common shares and with respect to gain from the disposition of common shares. An “excess distribution” generally is defined as the excess of distributions with respect to the common shares received by a U.S Holder in any tax year over 125% of the average annual distributions such U.S. Holder has received from the company during the shorter of the three preceding tax years, or such U.S. Holder’s holding period for the common shares. Generally, a U.S. Holder would be required to allocate any excess distribution or gain from the disposition of the common shares ratably over its holding period for the common shares. Such amounts allocated to the year of the disposition or excess distribution would be taxed as ordinary income, and amounts allocated to prior tax years would be taxed as ordinary income at the highest tax rate in effect for each such year and an interest charge at a rate applicable to underpayments of tax would apply.

 

While there are U.S. federal income tax elections that sometimes can be made to mitigate these adverse tax consequences (including, without limitation, the “QEF Election” and the “Mark-to-Market Election”), such elections are available in limited circumstances and must be made in a timely manner. U.S. Holders should be aware that, for each tax year, if any, that the company is a PFIC, the company can provide no assurances that it will satisfy the record keeping requirements of a PFIC, or that it will make available to U.S. Holders the information such U.S. Holders require to make a QEF Election under Section 1295 of the Code with respect of the company or any Subsidiary PFIC. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to the ownership and disposition of common shares, and the availability of certain U.S. tax elections under the PFIC rules.

We will furnish our shareholders with annual reports, which will include a review of operations and annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. We intend, although we are not obligated to do so, to furnish when requested by our shareholders quarterly reports by mail with the assistance of a corporate services provider, which will include unaudited interim financial information prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP for each of the three quarters of each fiscal year following the end of each such quarter. We may discontinue providing quarterly reports at any time without prior notice to our shareholders. For additional information on the company, please consult our website at www.nxtenergy.com, or the SEDAR website at http://sedar.com.

 

Our reports and other information, including this annual report and the exhibits hereto, as filed with the SEC in accordance with the Exchange Act, may be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the SEC at 100 F Street, Washington, D.C. 20549. In addition, copies of such reports and other information filed with the SEC can be obtained from www.sec.gov.

 

ITEM 11.         QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As at December 31, 2015 and to date in 2016, we do not have any interest bearing debt facilities or any forward / futures hedging contracts in place to manage risks related to foreign currency or interest rate fluctuations.

Currency Fluctuations

We currently hold our cash in both Canadian, U.S. and Bolivia currency, as we generally bill revenues in U.S. currency and local currency such as Bolivianos, and periodically hold certain short-term monetary assets and liabilities in other foreign currencies. Any transaction in a currency other than the Canadian dollar exposes us to the impact of exchange rate fluctuations between the Canadian and the foreign currencies. We do not currently engage in hedging activities to mitigate the effects of foreign currency fluctuation, and are reviewing opportunities to do so.

 

At December 31, 2015 we held U.S $ cash and short term investments totaling US $4,898,992. Accordingly, a hypothetical 10% change in the value of one U.S. $ expressed in Canadian dollars as at December 31, 2015 would have had a $489,899 effect on the unrealized foreign exchange gain or loss for the year.

 6020-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

Interest Fluctuations

At December 31, 2015 we held a total of $9,216,281 in cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and restricted cash. If all this cash was held in an interest bearing account for a full year, an actual 1% change in interest rates during the year ended December 31, 2015 would have resulted in approximately a $92,163 change in interest income for the year.

 

ITEM 12.         DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OTHER THAN EQUITY SECURITIES

PART II

 

ITEM 13.         DEFAULTS, DIVIDEND ARREARAGES AND DELINQUENCIES

 

There have not been any defaults, dividend arrears or delinquencies.

 

ITEM 14.         MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

There have been no material modifications to the rights of security holders except as outlined in Item 4.B “Summary information on dependence on patents, licenses and contracts” within this Form 20-F.

 

ITEM 15.         CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures (“DCP”) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports is accumulated and communicated to management, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”, together the "Responsible Officers") are responsible for establishing and maintaining DCP, or causing them to be designed under their supervision, for NXT to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the company is made known to the Responsible Officers by others within the organization, particularly during the period in which the company's quarterly and year-end financial statements, Form 20-F and Canadian MD&A are being prepared.

 

As of December 31, 2015 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Responsible Officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s DCP as defined under the rules adopted by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act.

 

Our management, under the supervision of the Responsible Officers, is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our Responsible Officers assessed the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, they used the criteria established in Internal Control – Framework 2013, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).

 6120-F for the year ended December 31, 2015
   

 

Our ICFR were not required to be independently audited. Accordingly, no independent audit was performed over the effectiveness of internal controls as at December 31, 2015 and this annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding ICFR. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

During this process, we identified the following material weaknesses in the company’s ICFR that have a direct impact on the Company’s DCP:

 

  • Due to our limited number of staff, it is currently not feasible to achieve adequate segregation of incompatible duties. We mitigate this deficiency by adding management and Audit Committee review procedures over the areas where inadequate segregation of duties are of the greatest concern; and
  • We do not have a sufficient level of staff with specialized expertise to adequately conduct separate preparation and a subsequent independent review of certain complex or highly judgmental accounting issues. These complex areas include accounting for income taxes, stock based compensation expense, and prior to 2015, the valuation of US$ Warrants. We mitigate this deficiency by preparing financial statements with their best judgments and estimates of the complex accounting matters and relies on reviews by management, external consultants and the Audit Committee for quality assurance.

As we continue to expand our operations, we seek to reduce these risks by adding additional staff resources and the use of out-sourced consultants as financial resources permit.

Notwithstanding our efforts to mitigate the risks associated with the above noted deficiencies, based upon this review the CEO and the CFO concluded that due to the foregoing material weakness, the company’s internal control over financial reporting are not effective as at December 31, 2015 and as a result its disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as at December 31, 2015. We reached this conclusion based upon their assessment that there is more than a remote likelihood that its ICFR will not prevent or detect material misstatements if they should exist in our financial statements.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

During the period ended December 31, 2015, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

ITEM 16A.         AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

Our Board of Directors has determined that we have at least one audit committee “financial expert” (as defined under Item 16.A of Form 20-F) serving on our Audit Committee. Each member of the NXT Audit Committee has relevant experience in understanding and evaluating financial information, generally accepted accounting principles, control systems, and audit committee functions.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT OF REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders of NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of NXT Energy Solutions Inc., which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015, and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

 

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditors' Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of NXT Energy Solutions Inc. as at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and its consolidated results of operations and its consolidated cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2015 in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles.

NXT ENERGY SOLUTIONS INC.

 

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

As at and for the year ended December 31, 2015

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

 

1. Company Background

 

NXT Energy Solutions Inc. (the "Company" or "NXT") is a publicly traded company based in Calgary, Canada.

 

NXT's proprietary Stress Field Detection ("SFDÒ") technology is an airborne survey system that is used in the oil and natural gas exploration industry to help aid in identifying areas with hydrocarbon reservoir potential. Since 2008, NXT's sales activities are focused on international and frontier exploration markets.

 

Specific rights to utilize this technology were initially obtained by NXT in 2005 and the rights were formally acquired by NXT in 2015 (see note 10(i)).

 

Prior to 2015, NXT's financial statements reflected disclosure related to the use of the "going concern" basis of presentation. Significant progress was made in 2015 in expanding the business, including securing, executing, and delivering the sizeable Bolivia survey contract (see note 15), which resulted in a significant expansion of the Company's liquidity and working capital in 2015.

 

Management determined in preparing these financial statements that, as at December 31, 2015, there is no material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.  However, NXT's financial results are currently dependent on a limited number of client projects (see note 16), and its longer term success remains dependent upon the ability to continue to attract new client projects and expand its revenue base.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of presentation

 

These consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America ("US GAAP") and by applying the same accounting policies and methods as used in preparing the consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

Consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries (all of which are inactive, other than its operation in Bolivia). All significant inter-company balances and transactions among NXT and its subsidiaries have been eliminated and are therefore not reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

 

Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these consolidated financial statements as well as revenues and expenses recorded during the reporting periods.

 

Estimates made relate primarily to the estimated useful lives of intellectual property and property and equipment, the measurement of stock-based compensation expense, work-in-process and deferred revenue balances, the valuation of the US$ Warrants, valuation of deferred income tax assets, and estimates for asset retirement obligations. The estimates and assumptions used are based upon management's best estimate. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period when determined. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and short term securities with an original maturity less than 90 days from the date of acquisition.

 

Short Term Investments

 

Short term investments are recorded at fair value, and include short term securities, held by a major Canadian chartered bank, with original maturity dates greater than 90 days but less than one year.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

As at and for the year ended December 31, 2015

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues from SFDÒ survey contracts performed by NXT (net of any related foreign sales tax) are recognized using the completed contract method of revenue recognition. Substantial completion of the contract culminates with NXT's delivery to its clients of a final interpretation and recommendations report for the survey project. This method is viewed as appropriate as prior to that point, the raw SFDÒ survey data obtained by NXT cannot be interpreted or utilized in an independent, meaningful way by the client.

 

Amounts received or invoiced in advance of completion of the contract are reflected as deferred revenue and classified as a current liability. At the end of each applicable quarterly fiscal period, all related survey expenditures and obligations (including sales commissions incurred) related to uncompleted contracts are reflected as work-in-progress and classified as current assets.

 

Upon completion of the contract deliverables, unearned revenue and the related work-in-progress are reflected in the statement of income (loss) as either revenue or survey cost. Survey costs do not include staff and related overhead costs (which are included in general and administrative expense) or any amortization of property and equipment.

 

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

 

Derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value with any realized and unrealized gains (losses) recognized included in the determination of net income (loss) for the period. NXT does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivatives. Any outstanding derivatives are classified into one of three categories based on a three level fair value hierarchy as noted below. As at December 31, 2015 and 2014, NXT had no outstanding derivative instruments.

 

In Level I, the fair value of assets and liabilities is determined by reference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to assess at the measurement date.

 

In Level II, determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities is based on the extrapolation of inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level I, for which all significant inputs are observable directly or indirectly. Such inputs include published exchange rates, interest rates, yield curves, and stock quotes from external data service providers. Transfers between Level I and Level II would occur when there is a change in market circumstances.

 

In Level III, the fair value of assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis is determined using a market approach based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value can fluctuate between Level II and Level III depending on the proportion of the value of the contract that extends beyond the time frame for which inputs are considered to be observable. As contracts near maturity and observable market data becomes available, the contracts are transferred out of Level III and into Level II.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization, which is recorded over the estimated service lives of the assets using the following annual rates and methods:

 

Computer hardware (including survey equipment)

30% declining balance

Computer software

100% declining balance

Aircraft

10% declining balance

Furniture and other equipment

20% declining balance

Leasehold improvements

over the remaining term of the lease

 

Management periodically reviews the carrying values of property and equipment to ensure that any impairment in value is recognized and reflected in results of operations.

As at and for the year ended December 31, 2015

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

 

Intellectual Property and Research and Development Expenditures

 

Intellectual property acquired is recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization, which is recorded over the estimated minimum useful life of the assets. Intellectual property is also subject to ongoing tests of potential impairment of the recorded net book value.

 

Research and development ("R&D") expenditures incurred to develop, improve and test the SFDÒ survey system and related components are expensed as incurred. Any intellectual property that is acquired for the purpose of enhancing research and development projects, if there is no alternative use for the intellectual property, is expensed in the period acquired. No significant external R&D was incurred in the years ended 2013, 2014 and 2015.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the average exchange rate for the applicable period. Shareholders' equity accounts are translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the applicable period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities (including work-in-progress and deferred revenue balances) are recorded at the relevant exchange rates for the period in which the balances arose. Any related foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from these translations are included in the determination of net income (loss) for the period.

 

Prior to 2010, NXT had active US subsidiaries which had the US dollar as their functional currency. Historic foreign currency translation adjustments related to the consolidation of these now inactive subsidiaries is the only component of accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of shareholders' equity.

 

Income Taxes

 

NXT follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities based on temporary differences in reported amounts for financial statement and income tax purposes, at the income tax rates expected to apply in the future periods when the temporary differences are expected to be reversed or realized. The effect of a change in income tax rates on deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities is recognized in income in the period when the tax rate change is enacted. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

 

Stock based compensation expense

 

NXT follows the fair value method of accounting for stock options that are granted to acquire common shares under NXT's stock option plan. Under this method, an estimate of the fair value of the cost of stock options that are granted to employees, directors and consultants is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and charged to income over the future vesting period of the stock options, with a corresponding increase recorded in contributed capital. Upon exercise of the stock options, the consideration received by NXT, and the related amount which was previously recorded in contributed capital, is recognized as an increase in the recorded value of the common shares of the Company.

 

Stock based compensation expense related to stock options granted to non-employees is periodically re-measured until the earlier of the completion of their service period or when the vesting period is completed. Changes to the re-measured compensation are recognized in the period of change and amortized over the remaining life of the vesting period in the same manner as the original stock option.

Income (loss) per share

 

Basic income (loss) per share amounts are calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares that are outstanding for the fiscal period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that the shares were outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per share are computed using the treasury stock method, whereby the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include any additional shares that would be issued from the assumed exercise of stock options and common share purchase warrants. The incremental number of shares added under the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding stock options and warrants that are exercisable at exercise prices below the Company's average market price (i.e. they were "in-the-money") for the applicable fiscal period are exercised and then that number of incremental shares is reduced by the number of shares that could have been repurchased by the Company from the issuance proceeds, using the average market price of the Company's shares for the applicable fiscal period.

 

No addition to the basic number of shares is made when calculating the diluted number of shares if the diluted per share amounts become anti-dilutive (such as occurs in the case where there is a net loss for the period).

 

Future Accounting Policy Changes

 

Revenue recognition:

 

In May 2014, the US Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new guidance on accounting for "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which supersedes the current revenue recognition requirements and most industry-specific guidance. This new guidance will require that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

 

This new guidance will be effective from January 1, 2018, and early application is not permitted. There will be two methods in which the amendment can be applied: (1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period (which will include NXT's fiscal years 2015 and 2016) presented, or (2) retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. NXT is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new guidance and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

3. Restricted cash

 

Restricted cash consists of funds which are deposited by NXT as security with financial institutions, including for the issuance of credit cards. Also, bank letters of credit are periodically issued for the benefit of NXT's clients related to contractual performance requirements on certain SFDÒ survey contracts (see note 18 (ii)).

5. Intellectual property

 

The intellectual property asset recorded in 2015, including a related deferred tax effect of $6,823,000, represents NXT's acquisition of the SFDÒ technology upon the conversion in 2015 of 8,000,000 preferred shares at an assigned fair value of $18,448,000 (see note 10 (ii)).

 

Intellectual property is being amortized on a straight line basis over its estimated minimum useful life of 15 years.

8. Asset retirement obligation

 

Asset retirement obligations ("ARO") relate to minor interests in oil and natural gas wells in which NXT has outstanding abandonment and reclamation obligations in accordance with government regulations. The Company's obligation relates to its interests in 6 gross (1.2 net) wells. ARO have an estimated future liability of approximately $59,000 which is based on estimates of the future timing and costs to abandon, remediate and reclaim the well sites within the next five years. The net present value of the ARO is as noted below, and has been calculated using an inflation rate of 3.4% and discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate of 10%.

US$ Warrants to purchase common shares

In 2012, NXT conducted private placement financings (the "2012 Financings", for proceeds of $3,183,132) which consisted of units issued at a price of US $0.75 (the "Units"). Each Unit consisted of one NXT common share and one warrant (the "US$ Warrants") to purchase an additional NXT common share at a price of US $1.20 for a term of two years from the date of issue. Including 244,816 finder's warrants issued, a total of 4,502,821 US$ Warrants were issued in the 2012 Financings.

10. Preferred shares

 

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of preferred shares, issuable in series.

 

(i)

History of Preferred Shares issued

 

Specific rights to utilize the SFDÒ technology for hydrocarbon exploration were licensed in 2005 from NXT's current Chief Executive Officer and President (the "CEO") pursuant to the execution of a Technology Transfer Agreement (the "TTA") which had a 10 year term. The TTA required the completion of various conditions related to 10,000,000 series 1, convertible preferred shares (the "Preferred Shares") that were issued in 2005 in exchange for the rights obtained under the TTA.

 

These Preferred Shares had a maturity date of December 31, 2015 (the "Maturity Date", which corresponded with the term of the TTA), were non-voting, did not participate in any dividends, and were convertible into 10,000,000 NXT common shares (on a 1 for 1 basis) under the following terms:

 

·

2,000,000 of the Preferred Shares became convertible into common shares upon issue. Effective May 22, 2013, these 2,000,000 Preferred Shares were converted into 2,000,000 common shares.

 

·

the remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares were convertible into common shares if the Company achieved certain pre-defined revenue milestones on or before the Maturity Date.

 

These shares were originally recorded at their estimated fair value as at December 31, 2005, with the total substantially assigned to the 2,000,000 Preferred Shares portion which was immediately convertible. The remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares were assigned a nominal value in 2005 as noted below, reflecting the uncertainty that all of the required revenue milestones would be achieved over the 10 year term of the TTA, which would result in eventual conversion into common shares:

Conversion of Preferred Shares in 2015

 

Although the pre-defined revenue thresholds were not going to be met, under the TTA the Company was required to convert the remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares into common shares in order to retain its specific rights to utilize the SFDÒ technology. The conversion was approved by the independent members of NXT's Board of Directors on August 31, 2015 (the "Conversion"). After the Conversion, NXT's CEO continues to retain the rights to utilize SFDÒ in other potential field-of-use applications.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

As at and for the year ended December 31, 2015

(Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

  The Conversion gave rise to the application of fair-value accounting, whereby the 8,000,000 common shares issued in 2015 were assigned an estimated fair-value (based on the NXT common share price at the time of Conversion) of $18,448,000 (see also note 5).

 

The historic value of $232,600 which was attributed to the 8,000,000 Preferred Shares at the time of their original issuance in 2005 was transferred to the common shares balance upon Conversion in 2015.

 

(iii)

Rights related to Preferred Shares

 

In January 2014, NXT's CEO (the "Grantor") personally granted (to a total of 17 persons, including NXT employees, directors, officers, advisors and others) "Rights" to acquire a total of 1,000,000 of the common shares which later became issued to him in August 2015 upon the conversion of the remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares. Each of the Rights were subject to certain vesting provisions and entitle the holder to acquire from the Grantor one common share of NXT at a fixed exercise price of $1.77. The Rights originally had an expiry date of December 31, 2015, which, effective that date, was extended to December 31, 2016 (the "Extension").

 

A total of 795,000 of these Rights were granted to certain of NXT's directors, officers, employees and advisors, and are considered as supplemental incentives, in addition to those which have been granted under NXT's stock option plan (see note 12).

 

Accordingly, this gives rise to the recognition of additional compensation expense by NXT, based on the estimated fair value of certain of these Rights as at their grant date in 2014, and the Extension in December 2015. The fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and recognized over the remaining vesting term of the Rights, based on the following assumptions:

A total of 2,000,000 of the Preferred Shares (see note 10 (i)) are included in the above noted basic income (loss) per share calculation for the year ended December 31, 2013, as the criteria for them to convert to common shares had been met up to their formal conversion in May 2013. The remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares are included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding from their conversion on August 31, 2015. Prior to that date, they were considered to be contingently issuable, and were only included in the diluted number of shares outstanding if there was a net income applicable for the period.

(ii)

In periods in which a loss results, all outstanding stock options, US$ common share purchase Warrants and the 8,000,000 Preferred Shares are excluded from the fully diluted loss per share calculations as their effect is anti-dilutive.

13. Financial instruments

 

(i)

Non-derivative financial instruments

 

The Company's non-derivative financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, income taxes payable, and capital lease obligations. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair values due to their short terms to maturity. NXT is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. NXT is exposed to foreign exchange risk as a result of holding US, Bolivian, and Colombian denominated financial instruments.

   

(ii)

Derivative financial instruments

 

As at December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no US$ Warrants outstanding. As the exercise price of the US$ Warrants that were issued in 2012 (see note 9 (i)) was in US dollars, which is a currency other than the functional currency of NXT, the US$ Warrants were considered to have an embedded derivative and were required to be recorded at fair value each reporting period. The amount recorded for this instrument, which was included with current liabilities, was adjusted to fair value at each period end over the life of the US$ Warrants, with the changes in fair value reflected in earnings.

 

Financial instruments that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are required to be classified into one of three categories based upon a fair value hierarchy. The Company's only financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were the US$ Warrants. NXT classified these derivative financial instruments as level III where the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques that refer to both observable and unobservable market data. The valuation model was based on the Black-Scholes inputs noted below, as well as a discount to reflect the potential dilution impact upon exercise of the US$ Warrants and NXT's low stock market liquidity.

 

A continuity of the fair value of the US$ Warrants that were issued in the 2012 Financings is as follows:

14. Income tax expense

 

NXT periodically earns revenues while operating outside of Canada in foreign jurisdictions. Payments made to NXT for services rendered to clients and subsidiary companies in certain countries may be subject to foreign with-holding taxes. Such taxes incurred are only recoverable in certain limited circumstances, including potential utilization in Canada as a foreign tax credit, or against future taxable earnings from the foreign jurisdictions.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2015, NXT recorded foreign withholding taxes of $1,755,678 (2014 - $nil and 2013 - $399,546) on a portion of its revenues generated on international projects, including with-holding taxes incurred on certain charges to a foreign subsidiary.

  

Income tax expense is different from the expected amount that would be computed by applying the statutory Canadian federal and provincial income tax rates to NXT's income (loss) before income taxes as follows:

15. Bolivia Survey Project

 

In May 2015, NXT executed a contract to conduct a US $13.4 million (US $12.9 million net of applicable local sales taxes owing) survey project with a new client in Bolivia (the "Bolivia Project"). This contract was completed and recognized in revenue in NXT's Q4-2015 period.

 

A contract amendment for an additional survey project valued at US $1.0 million (net of taxes) was finalized in October, 2015. The results for this project were delivered to the client in January, 2016, and will be recognized as revenue in the Q1-2016 period. Accordingly, deferred revenue includes US $0.5 million (net of taxes) which had been invoiced as a progress billing to December 31, 2015 for this project.

 

General and administrative expense for 2015 includes a total of $353,000 related to the payment of a corporate bonus pool based on financial results of the Bolivia Project.

 

16. Geographic information

 

NXT conducts all of its survey operations from its head office in Canada, and occasionally maintains administrative offices in foreign locations such as Colombia (to mid-2014) and currently Bolivia. NXT has no long term assets outside of Canada.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”)

 

Q4 – 2015

 

As at and for the year
ended December 31, 2015

 

 


   
   

Management's Discussion and Analysis

The following management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") was prepared by management based on information available as at April 26, 2016 and should be reviewed in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2015. This MD&A covers the unaudited 3 month ("Q4-15") and 12 month year-to-date (“2015 YTD”) periods ended December 31, 2015, with comparative totals for the 3 month (“Q4-14”) and 12 month year-to-date (“2014 YTD”) periods ended December 31, 2014.

As used in this MD&A, the terms "we", "us", "our", "NXT" and the "Company" mean NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

Our functional and reporting currency is the Canadian dollar. All references to "dollars" in this MD&A refer to Canadian or Cdn. dollars (“Cdn $”) unless specific reference is made to United States or US dollars ("US$").

Forward-looking statements

This MD&A contains forward-looking statements, which include words such as “intends”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “scheduled”, and relate primarily to:

·estimates of the amount and expected timing of revenue and costs related to existing and potential new SFD® survey contracts that may be obtained, conducted and completed in future periods.
·the timing and extent of potential future growth opportunities in new international markets, including new business ventures.
·plans related to development of the Company’s “Vertical” business model.
·estimates related to NXT’s future financial position and liquidity.

The material factors and assumptions which affect this forward-looking information include assumptions that NXT will continue to have available the necessary personnel, equipment and required local permits to conduct survey projects as intended.

These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and are subject to a wide range of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, NXT assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements should circumstances or the Company's estimates or opinions change.

Non GAAP measures

NXT's accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").  This MD&A includes references to terms such as “net working capital” and “net working capital before the undernoted items”, terms which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.  Management of NXT uses these non-GAAP measures to improve its ability to assess liquidity at a point in time.  Net working capital before the undernoted items is defined as total current assets less total current liabilities, excluding amounts accumulated in work in progress and deferred revenue.  Management excludes these amounts from the calculation as they will not result in future cash inflows or outflows to the Company.

Description of the Business

NXT is a Calgary based publicly traded company (now listed on the TSX) that provides a unique aerial survey service to the oil and natural gas exploration and production (“E&P”) industry. NXT's proprietary, patent pending Stress Field Detection ("SFD®") survey technology is based on detecting subtle changes in earth's gravitational field from an airborne platform. SFD® data acquired is analyzed and can be used to find variations in sub-surface geological stress patterns – which are considered to be indicators of potential reservoir and trap formations. NXT's aerial SFD® surveys provide an effective and cost efficient method for clients to focus their decisions related to land commitments and the acquisition of traditional seismic data that is used to locate and delineate exploration prospects.

Our goal is to aid our clients in reducing their overall time, cost, environmental impact, and risk in their exploration programs. Relative to traditional land based methods, the SFD® survey method is environmentally non-invasive and is unaffected by ground security issues or difficult terrain. Additionally, SFD® surveys can generally be conducted year round and are effective both onshore and offshore. SFD® and NXT in Canada and the United States are the registered trademarks of NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

NXT's technology is attractive for use as an early stage exploration tool in frontier and under-developed areas, and as such, we have been seeking to expand our presence in growing new international exploration markets such as South and Central America.

Overall Performance - Business Overview

NXT recognizes that its past revenue base has been sporadic in nature, as it is derived from a limited number of clients, and conducting periodic survey projects which are relatively short-term in nature. Our primary goal is to expand our revenue base, which will be facilitated by having new clients become repeat, larger scale customers.

Our strategy has been to gain wider market acceptance of SFD®, especially with premier clients which have high exploration activity - targets which include large National Oil Companies (“NOCs”). We seek to have each new client experience how NXT can enhance their existing geophysical tools and exploration programs, so that they become ongoing repeat customers, and ultimately generating a wider client base with recurring revenues to NXT.

This process of expanding the client base has ongoing challenges, due to such factors as:

·         exploration geoscientists are often inundated with new technologies, and can be inherently resistant to test and adopt new methods.

·         the exploration cycle is long in nature, and generating results from SFD® recommendations made in past surveys takes time and patience to realize.

·         large NOCs can tend to have a long decision making and approval process.

·         the current, ongoing downturn in commodity prices in the oil and gas industry.

The discussion in the MD&A focuses on the highlights of NXT’s ongoing business development activities, and any significant changes arising subsequent to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Estimates of the timing and securing of future contract opportunities are forward-looking expectations which are dependent upon regional political and other factors that are beyond NXT’s control.

For most of 2015, NXT was working on undertaking and delivering our Bolivia survey project, which has been our largest contract to date. Our final deliverables under the initial portion of the contract were met in Q4-15, which resulted in a record year of revenues and profitability for NXT.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015

 Page | 3
   

After securing and performing the Bolivia survey project in 2015, we have made traction with additional new prospective clients, particularly in Bolivia and Pakistan. In addition, ongoing meetings were held in recent months with several client prospects which have sizeable potential exploration survey projects in new areas of Asia, the Middle-East and Africa, including Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Ghana, the UAE and most recently Qatar. NXT is undertaking extensive marketing efforts and technical presentations at the invitation of these prospective clients in the April to May 2016 period in order to advance and secure project opportunities in these regions.

Near-term Outlook and Strategy for 2016 and beyond

NXT is continuing to expand awareness and use of the SFD® technology. Our market focus will be on the NOCs, small to mid-cap exploration and production ("E&P") companies, and when opportunities arise, the major E&P companies.  A lucrative potential longer term new market to be pursued is joint projects with the seismic companies that acquire and sell large scale “Multi-Client” survey programs (primarily off-shore). 

Geographically, NXT will continue to pursue prospects throughout South and Central America - primarily in Bolivia, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina, and Brazil, as well as the Pakistan / South Asia, Africa and Middle-East regions.  Longer term prospects will also be pursued in the frontier areas of the Arctic and off-shore Atlantic regions (particularly where Canadian and American E&P companies are operating). 

As NXT pursues various international markets, our strategy is to utilize high quality local sales representatives with the key knowledge of their area, the potential clients and the exploration sector of the oil and gas industry.  This allows us to cover much larger areas and more clients with minimum fixed cost.  Also, having a local presence, with knowledge of the market and customs, is often key to building relationships with new clients. NXT will also seek to maintain a local office presence in select markets in order to directly interact with key clients, such as YPFB in Bolivia.

Through the end of 2015, NXT was utilizing several independent sales representatives to pursue SFD® survey opportunities in such markets as Latin America (primarily Mexico and Bolivia), South Asia (Pakistan and India), the Middle-East, and South-Asia regions.  Contracts with our independent international sales representatives include requirements that they adhere to NXT's code of conduct and business ethics, and compliance with anti-corruption policies.

In Q4-15, we also expanded our complement of sales staff, and added an experienced, Spanish speaking geoscientist who will aid in our efforts to serve and grow our Latin and Central America markets.

 

Projects in Bolivia and future opportunities

In April 2015, NXT finalized a commitment with Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales Bolivianos (“YPFB”, the NOC of Bolivia) to undertake a US $13 million (net) survey project. The highlights of this milestone survey project (all amounts noted herein are net of local Bolivia sales taxes which arise on the project billings) and related recent developments include:

·following the delivery by NXT of standard project performance guarantees, in May 2015, NXT received an advance deposit (value of US $2.5 million net of local taxes, and secured by a bank letter of guarantee issued to the client), which was later applied against the progress billings earned by NXT on the project to the end of July totaling US $7.7 million (net).
·SFD® data acquisition operations commenced in Bolivia in early June, and the data acquisition phase was completed in August, with NXT’s related recommendations reports delivered to YPFB in late October.
·during the data acquisition phase, YPFB chose to undertake an additional survey “expansion” project valued at approximately US $1.0 million. The decision for YPFB’s expansion was based on the rapid delivery of preliminary SFD® results, which had excellent correlations noted between anomalies identified by SFD® and the clients’ existing ones identified using seismic methods. A contract amendment was finalized in October, 2015 for this project, the final results for which were delivered by NXT in January, 2016.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015

·progress billings totaling US $13 million (net) for the full value of the initial contract were received in 2015 by NXT’s Bolivia branch. Additional billings totaling US $1 million (net) for the project expansion were issued to YPFB (one half in each of December, 2015 and January, 2016) and have also been received in full.
·NXT also had ongoing discussions concerning potential SFD® survey project opportunities with several of YPFB’s affiliated, subsidiary companies which have exploration acreage in Bolivia. Two entities expressed interest in obtaining SFD® data for certain of their exploration lands in Bolivia - YPFB Chaco, and YPFB Andina (which is a partnership with Repsol, a major Spanish oil company). A contract with YPFB Chaco to purchase initial SFD® data (which was acquired in summer 2015) in the amount of US $0.2 million was completed and delivered by NXT in Q4-15.
·while conducting operations in Bolivia in summer 2015, NXT acquired additional proprietary SFD® data flight lines requested by YPFB Andina and minor additional SFD® data for YPFB Chaco. These parties indicated that they are in process of approving formal contracts to purchase this data, which has a sales value of approximately US $1.0 million (net), and negotiation of this is currently in process. There is, however, some risk that this process may not result in formal contracts to purchase the SFD® data from NXT.

 

In summary, the Bolivia survey contracts performed in 2015 and the potential future Bolivia data sales is summarized as follows:

 

    amounts
  contract received to
amounts in US$ millions, net value December 31
YPFB – initial survey contract 13.0 13.0
YPFB Chaco survey 0.2 0.2
YPFB – project expansion 1.0 0.5
Total for contracts commenced in 2015 14.2 13.7
YPFB Chaco and YPFB Andina – proposed 2016 data purchases 1.0 -
Total awarded surveys and proposed 2016 Bolivia data sales 15.2 13.7

 

In Q4-15 and January 2016, NXT conducted various technical presentations with YPFB’s exploration groups, with the objectives of:

·integrating the SFD® survey data with YPFB’s existing geophysical data, which further enhances the use and value of the data provided by NXT.
·evaluating potential new SFD® survey opportunities which may be of interest for YPFB to undertake as part of its’ exploration plans for later in 2016 and 2017.

 

Project opportunities in Pakistan

Our past SFD® survey project for Pakistan Petroleum Ltd. (“PPL”), one of the NOCs active in Pakistan, gave NXT significant exposure to numerous E&Ps active in the South Asia region. In Pakistan, remote sensing technologies such as SFD® were recognized in 2015 as a geophysical tool for use in meeting spending commitments, such as the commitments required on the sizeable exploration concession blocks awarded in frontier areas of Pakistan. Multiple client prospects had expressed interest in conducting potential SFD® surveys in Pakistan (subject to the eventual approval in 2015 of the amendments to Pakistan’s petroleum policy), and NXT continues to pursue these opportunities.

In early 2015, NXT was awarded a US $1.44 million survey project to be conducted in Pakistan, subject to receipt by the client of all relevant government permits and approvals, which could potentially occur in the near future. In addition, Oil & Gas Development Company Limited (“OGDCL”), a new prospective NOC client in Pakistan, completed a vendor pre-qualification stage in fall 2015 for a formal tender invitation process, which is expected to be offered in the near future, for a large-scale, remote sensing aerial survey project for which SFD® would be an ideal technology for meeting their exploration requirements.

 

Opportunities in the Mexico market

NXT gained Petrolēos Mexicanos (“PEMEX”, the NOC of Mexico) as a new client in 2012, and continues to work to create a long-term supplier relationship with PEMEX. This requires patience and perseverance, as PEMEX has been undergoing extensive changes in strategy and structure since late 2013, as they deal with the significant reforms of Mexico’s energy industry.

The reforms of the 2013-2014 period had a significant effect on PEMEX and its ongoing exploration activities. Mexico is inviting foreign E&P partners into its formerly closed exploration market, by way of inviting open “bid rounds” on certain exploration blocks / concessions which will be released over time. This process is intended to yield long-term benefits for all of Mexico, as it should eventually attract significant new capital and expertise to expand development of Mexico’s oil and gas industry. Expanded exploration in Mexico, and especially in the deep water and salt domains of the Gulf of Mexico, is an area where SFD® can excel at rapidly providing PEMEX and others with independent high-impact prospect generation data.

NXT will continue to pursue new opportunities with PEMEX, and other exploration entities which are looking to enter the Mexico market.

 

The SFD® “Vertical” Business Model

A separate initiative that we undertook in late 2014 was researching ways to monetize our existing “library” of proprietary SFD® data obtained in past survey flights. The objective is to create a vertically integrated exploration entity (a “Vertical”) which utilizes a combination of external funding, an independent and experienced exploration management team, and a high-value data set of existing SFD® identified prospects. The ultimate goal is for NXT to receive a significant equity and royalty interest in the Vertical in consideration for the sale to the Vertical of certain of our existing, proprietary SFD® data.

Developing the Vertical business model with the appropriate structure will be a long-term project to develop SFD® identified prospect areas in an effort to yield an additional return to NXT shareholders.

A Vertical model “feasibility study” process started in Fall 2014, following which NXT advanced the Vertical concept, including:

·conducting an extensive geotechnical analysis of a defined portion of NXT’s proprietary SFD® data library, and further developing an inventory of prospect leads, and
·developing an initial financing and exploration plan, which we intend to use in future to further develop the Vertical concept, with a view to obtaining a commitment for sufficient external equity funding.

At the present time, NXT continues to believe that the Vertical concept will eventually be implemented to create long-term value. Current commodity price conditions, which many analysts expect to continue through 2016, make the ability to attract exploration financing challenging. In the meantime, NXT will continue to assess alternative opportunities to apply SFD® in a Vertical model in attractive global markets.

Some of the ongoing challenges, risks and uncertainties that NXT will face in an ultimate realization of the Vertical concept include:

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015

 Page | 6
   
·structuring the Vertical entity so that it will be able to raise sufficient equity financing (potentially a minimum of $100 million) to allow it to undertake a meaningful exploration program (i.e. capex required for land acquisition or farm-in, drilling and completion costs, etc.) to develop exploration prospects identified using SFD® data.
·attracting experienced joint venture partners, on suitable terms, where this is assessed as critical to developing certain exploration prospect areas.
·sourcing and retaining exploration and development staff, ideally with experience operating in the foreign markets to be pursued.
·operating exploration and development activities in foreign jurisdictions which may lack ongoing political and fiscal stability and certainty.

As the ultimate execution of the Vertical concept is dependent on many factors, there is no certainty as to the ultimate timing and financial impact which it may have on NXT’s future performance.

NXT’s data library continued to expand in 2015 and now includes significant amounts of data in Colombia, Mexico and Bolivia as well as Canada and the USA. NXT can potentially use this data in new Vertical opportunities or sell it directly to clients.

 

Intellectual Property (“IP”) and Research & Development (“R&D”)

Ongoing objectives to realize additional future revenue growth include expanding our SFD® equipment capacity, adding to our core group of interpretation staff and our ability to provide integration of SFD® with client geological and geophysical data.  We continue to research and advance the development of algorithm software which may be able to be deployed to aid in enhancing the SFD® data interpretation process.

Initiatives to expand and protect our IP (including patenting and new R&D initiatives) continue, which should also serve to allow us to expand on our technology disclosures in order to build further industry awareness, understanding, and acceptance of SFD®. Squire Patton Boggs LLP, a United States (“US”) based leader in IP protection, has been advising on our IP strategy, including the prior filing of an initial US provisional patent application in May 2012. In November 2014, NXT filed a related patent amendment submission in the US and since that time has undertaken new patent applications in select strategic international markets. NXT is in process of conducting further R&D related to the SFD® technology, and intends to draft additional new claims for patent applications to be filed in the US in the near future.

Summary of Quarterly Results (Unaudited)

A summary of operating results for each of the trailing 8 quarters (including a comparison of certain key categories to each respective prior quarter) follows. The extent of the profit or loss each quarter is mainly due to the timing and the number of SFD® survey contracts that have been completed or are underway, and variances in such non-cash items as stock based compensation expense ("SBCE"), which can occasionally be a significant expense in any given quarter. Also, in Q3-15, upon conversion of the outstanding preferred shares, NXT recorded a significant intellectual property asset, which is being amortized (a non-cash expense) over a 15-year period.

In addition, the US$ denominated common share purchase warrants (which were exercised or expired by the end of Q2-14) were classified as a "derivative financial instrument" on our balance sheet, which prior to Q3-14 gave rise to the recognition in earnings each quarter of the change in the estimated fair value (also a non-cash expense or income item) of these warrants.

SFD® survey operations - NXT applies the completed contract basis of revenue recognition, with survey revenue and expenses recognized in the quarterly period in which the final overall survey recommendations report is delivered to our client, resulting in the completion of our obligations under the survey contract. The 2014 YTD period reflected the completion in Q1-14 of a total of US $3.7 million of survey projects which were conducted in the USA. In 2015, NXT completed Bolivia survey projects totaling US $13.2 million. An additional expansion project that was flown for YPFB was delivered and completed in January, 2016, which will result in US $1 million (for which one half was billed and received to December 31, 2015) of revenue recognition in the Q1-16 period. The second half of the contract billing for this expansion project was issued and received in Q1-16.

General and administrative expense (“G&A”) - All salaries and overhead costs related to SFD® data interpretation staff are included in G&A, and not included with direct survey expenses. The categories of costs included in G&A are as follows:

 

  Q4-15 Q4-14 net change % change
Salaries, benefits and consulting charges $ 719,371 $ 634,572 $ 84,799 13.4 %

The overall net changes in G&A within the individual expense categories noted above reflect several factors:

·staff levels were higher in 2015, leading to an increase in salaries and related benefits.
·in the Q4-14 period, public company costs were much lower than the normal rate for each quarter based on the timing of discretionary investor relations activities.
·board, professional fees, & public company costs were higher in 2015 primarily due to a higher level of spending on investor relations activities, and in 2014, a higher percentage of the total fees for NXT Board members were settled in the form of stock options granted, rather than paid in cash.
·premises and overhead costs rose in Q4-15, and for 2015 YTD, following the move to new, larger office premises in August, 2015. The increase included an overlap of office rent on two locations for one month in Q3-15, and the effect of amortizing the initial “rent-free” period at the new location to G&A expense over the 10 year term of the new lease (which resulted in a “deferred charge” being recorded in long-term liabilities).
·business development costs were slightly lower for 2015 YTD, although they are somewhat discretionary each quarter, as they are a function of the timing of activity in developing new client opportunities. Costs incurred in 2015 related to opportunities being pursued in the Latin America, Africa and south Asia regions.
·a decrease in costs in 2015 for the Colombia office following the lay off in summer 2014 of the office administrator.
·a corporate bonus pool of $353,000 was expensed in Q4-15 based on financial results of the Bolivia survey project.

 

Expenses related to the office location opened in Bolivia in summer 2015, which was used to service the YPFB projects, are included with 2015 survey costs.

 

Stock Based Compensation Expense (“SBCE”) - this expense varies in any given quarter or year, as it is a function of several factors, such as the number of stock options issued in the period, and the period of amortization (based on the term of the contract and / or number of years for full vesting of the options, which is normally 3 years) of the resultant expense. Also, SBCE is a function of periodic changes in the inputs used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model, such as volatility in the trailing market value of NXT's common share price.

There was a higher average number of options outstanding in the 2015 YTD period (total of 3,462,835 as at the end of Q4-15 as compared to 2,541,435 at the end of Q4-14).

SBCE also includes expense related to the “Rights” which were issued in January 2014 (see discussion which follows in the “convertible preferred shares” section herein) as follows: 

  Q4-15 Q4-14 2015 YTD 2014 YTD
SBCE recognized related to:        
     Rights – grant in 2014 $ 62,000 $ 52,000 $ 244,000 $ 226,000
     Rights – extension of term in 2015 210,000 - 210,000 -
     Rights 272,000 52,000 454,000 226,000
     Stock options  218,000  134,000  627,000  432,000
  490,000 186,000 1,081,000 658,000

 

 

Effective from December 31, 2015, the initial 2-year term of the Rights was extended by one additional year, which resulted in the recognition of an additional $210,000 of SBCE in Q4-15. Even though these Rights are not an obligation of NXT, but solely of the Grantor, under US GAAP they are viewed as an additional form of incentive granted to certain of the holders, which results in the requirement for NXT itself to recognize this expense. Further, the holders’ entitlements to exercise the Rights had become fully “vested” as at the December 31, 2015 extension date, which resulted in immediate recognition of the incremental SBCE in Q4-15 (rather than over the one year term of the extension).

Interest income, net – includes interest income earned on short-term investments, which had a lower total for the 2015 periods, and is net of interest incurred on a new capital lease obligation that was entered into in the Q3-15 period in connection with the construction of the new office space.

Loss (gain) on foreign exchange - this total is caused by changes in the relative exchange values of the US$, Cdn$ and to a minor extent, the Colombian peso ("COP"). For example, when the Cdn$ trades higher relative to the US$ or COP, cash held in US$ or COP will decline in value, and this decline will be reflected as a foreign exchange loss in the period. NXT normally holds its cash and short-term investments in Cdn$ to reduce the effect of market volatility; however, we periodically are contractually obligated to hold certain restricted cash funds in US$ instruments to support performance bond commitments in certain foreign countries.

The value of net US$ monetary assets can vary widely each period, based on such factors as the extent of US$ revenue contracts in process, and the related level of US$ cash and short-term investments which were held.

The valuation is also affected by the relative strength of the US$ at each period end (which rose significantly in 2015 as compared to the end of 2014, as the rate was 1.384 Cdn$ / US$ at the end of Q4-15 as compared to 1.160 Cdn$ / US$ as at end of Q4-14), resulting in both realized and unrealized net exchange gain movements on the net holdings of US$ cash and other working capital items.

Other expense - this category includes primarily costs related to intellectual property filings and R&D activity related to the SFD® technology, and the feasibility study for the Vertical concept.

Other expense related to Q4-15 Q4-14 2015 YTD 2014 YTD

Intellectual property and related amortization expense - NXT finalized its acquisition of specific rights to utilize the proprietary SFD® technology from its inventor, NXT’s President & CEO, on August 31, 2015 with the conversion of the remaining 8,000,000 preferred shares, on a 1 for 1 basis, into NXT common shares. NXT now has the exclusive ownership of and rights to utilize the SFD® intellectual property in global hydrocarbon exploration applications. After the Conversion, NXT’s CEO continues to retain the rights to utilize SFD® in other potential field-of-use applications.

The technology had originally been held and utilized by NXT under a 10-year technology transfer agreement (the “TTA”), which was to mature on December 31, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”). The convertible preferred shares were issued under the TTA in the 2005 / 2006 period to NXT's President & CEO, were non-voting, and were subject to earlier partial conversions if certain cumulative revenue milestones were achieved by NXT.

The 8 million convertible preferred shares had been assigned only a nominal value of $232,000 upon their original issuance in 2005, based on uncertainty as to whether the Company would successfully develop the technology in order to meet the cumulative revenue thresholds required to trigger full conversion over the 10-year term of the TTA. NXT had an option under the TTA to retain the ongoing rights to utilize the technology by converting the remaining preferred shares into common shares prior to the Maturity Date (the “Conversion”). The independent members of the Board of Directors of NXT determined that Conversion was in the best interests of all shareholders and exercised the option to convert in Q3-15.

The Conversion gave rise to the application of “fair-value” accounting in Q3-15, whereby the 8 million common shares issued were assigned an estimated fair-value of $18.5 million.  An intellectual property (“IP”) asset related to the technology acquired was recognized at approximately $25.3 million, which included a tax effect gross- up of $6.8 million (as the IP has no corresponding deferred tax pool deduction for ongoing Canadian current income tax purposes). The IP assets December 31, 2015 net book value of $24.7 million will be amortized on a straight line basis over a 15-year period (future amortization expense of $1,685,000 per year), and will also be subject to ongoing tests of potential impairment of the recorded net book value.

Amortization expense includes the following:

 

  Q4-15 Q4-14 2015 YTD 2014 YTD
Amortization of:        
Property and equipment $ 64,260 $ 21,692 $ 142,943 $ 67,162
Intellectual property 459,500 - 562,000 -
  523,760 21,692 704,943 67,162

 

Change in fair value of US$ Warrants - in spring 2012, NXT closed a $3.2 million private placement financing of “units”, which were priced at US $0.75. Each unit included one warrant to purchase a NXT common share (exercise price of US $1.20 per share) for a period of two years (the “US$ Warrants”). As these US$ Warrants were denominated in US$, they were considered to be a “derivative financial instrument” for financial statement reporting purposes, and were re-valued to their estimated fair value at each period end until their exercise and / or expiry in early 2014. This revaluation resulted in the recognition of an “increase in fair value of US$ Warrants” expense of $42,800 in Q1-14.

Of the total 4,502,821 US$ Warrants which were issued in 2012, the majority had expiry dates in March 2014, and a portion in May 2014, and no US$ Warrants were outstanding in 2015.

Income tax expense - NXT periodically earns revenues while operating outside of Canada in foreign jurisdictions. Payments made to NXT for services rendered to clients and subsidiary companies in certain countries may be subject to foreign income tax with-holdings. Such taxes incurred are only recoverable in certain limited circumstances, including potential utilization in Canada as a foreign tax credit against income taxes payable for Canadian income tax purposes.

In 2015, NXT expensed foreign income tax with-holdings of $1,755,678 (2014 – $nil) which were incurred on certain charges to a subsidiary company in connection with the Bolivia survey project. Total current income tax expense for 2015 also includes income taxes payable in Bolivia for NXT’s local operating entity.

On the acquisition of the IP assets in 2015, an estimated deferred income tax liability of $6.8 million arose.  However, NXT has available a significant historic total of previously unrecorded deferred income tax assets (non-capital / operating losses and other tax pools available for Canadian income tax purposes of approximately $29 million at December 31, 2015), and therefore a deferred tax recovery / benefit of $6.8 million was recognized in 2015, which offset the balance sheet impact of this deferred tax liability.  A total net income tax recovery was recognized in 2015 as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

NXT's cash and cash equivalents plus short-term investments at the end of Q4-15 was $9.1 million.

Prior to Q2-15, NXT’s financial statements reflected various disclosures related to the use of the “going concern” basis of presentation. Significant progress was made in 2015 in expanding the business, including securing, executing, and delivering the sizeable Bolivia survey contract, which resulted in a significant expansion of our liquidity and working capital.

NXT's longer term success remains dependent upon our ability to continue to attract new client projects and expand the revenue base to a level sufficient to far exceed G&A expenses, and generate excess net cash flow from operations. Equity financings have been used on a limited basis in recent years to supplement working capital as required.

Private placement financings totaling $3.2 million ($2.9 million net of finders fees and share issue costs incurred) were conducted in early 2012 to enhance NXT's financial strength and fund its expansion plans. This financing also included the US$ common share purchase Warrants (which had a term of two years, expiring in March and May 2014), for which exercise proceeds of US $1.0 million were received in Q4-13 and US $2.5 million in 2014.

Risks related to having sufficient ongoing working capital to execute survey project contracts are mitigated through our normal practice of obtaining progress payments from clients throughout the course of the projects, which often span 3 to 4 months. In addition, where possible, risk of default on client billings is mitigated through the use of export insurance programs offered via Export Development Canada (“EDC”).

EDC can also be utilized by NXT for financial support in the form of guarantees of specific bank letters of credit required to be issued by NXT as performance guarantees on international projects, such as was utilized on our project for YPFB in Bolivia. This aids in reducing restrictions on working capital that is needed to initiate and undertake projects.

NXT has minimal secured debt, and had total “net working capital” of $7.5 million as at Q4-15 as follows:

  December 31, December 31, net change
  2015 2014 in 2015

The above noted $2.5 million increase in net working capital at Q4-15 is primarily due to the $4.1 million net income generated for 2015. The higher totals for individual components noted above for the total net working capital balance at December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014 relates to:

·         an increased level of operating activity in conducting the Bolivia survey project.

·         a portion of the 2015 Bolivia survey projects were delivered to the client in January 2016, giving rise to the $706,722 deferred revenue and $404,840 work-in-process (or deferred costs) balances at December 31, 2015. There were no amounts recorded in WIP and deferred revenue at December 31, 2014.

·         a new capital lease obligation of $200,000 arose in 2015, used to finance a small portion of the leasehold improvement costs incurred.

NXT applies the "completed contract" method of revenue recognition - revenues and related project costs are deferred until the period in which the survey contract is completed. At each period end, if applicable, deferred revenue (a current liability) represents progress billing amounts that are to be recognized in revenue in future periods. Similarly, work-in-progress ("WIP", a current asset) relates to deferred survey costs which will be expensed in future periods upon completion of the related contracts. As these amounts will not result in additional future cash inflows or outflows to the Company, they are excluded (in periods in which applicable) from NXT’s above noted table / analysis of net working capital.

This discussion includes references to terms such as “net working capital” and “net working capital before the undernoted items”, which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by US GAAP and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.  NXT management uses this non-GAAP measure to improve our ability to assess liquidity at a point in time.  Net working capital is defined as total current assets less total current liabilities, excluding amounts accumulated in work in progress and deferred revenue.  Management excludes these amounts from the calculation as they do not represent future cash inflows or outflows to the Company.

NXT utilizes the above noted sub-total line “net working capital before the undernoted items” to assess a more relevant measure of financial liquidity (excluding items classified as liabilities such as deferred revenue balances) as at the period end date.

 

The following summarizes NXT's net cash flows, and the total cash plus short-term investments held at the end of the period:

Convertible preferred shares

As was noted previously, effective August 31, 2015, NXT exercised its option to convert the 8,000,000 outstanding preferred shares (which had been issued in 2005) in order to finalize its specific rights to continue to utilize the SFD® technology.

In the event that the conversion option had not been exercised, the preferred shares would have been redeemed for $0.001 per share and NXT's rights to the SFD® technology would revert to the holder of the preferred shares.

Separately, in January 2014, NXT’s CEO (the “Grantor”) personally granted (to a total of 17 persons, including certain NXT employees and directors) “Rights” to acquire a total of 1,000,000 of the common shares which were expected to become issued to him in 2015 upon future conversion of the preferred shares by their Maturity Date. Each of the Rights were subject to certain vesting provisions and entitled the holder to acquire from the Grantor one common share of NXT at a fixed exercise price of $1.77. The Rights originally had an expiry date of December 31, 2015, which, effective that date, was extended by the Grantor to December 31, 2016.

A total of 365,000 of these Rights were granted in 2014 to certain directors and officers of NXT, and a total of 430,000 Rights were granted to NXT’s employees and advisors. These Rights are supplemental to existing incentives which have been granted under NXT’s stock option plan.

Other Transactions With Related Parties

One of the members of NXT’s Board of Directors is a partner in a law firm which provides legal advice to NXT. Legal fees incurred with this firm were as follows:

    Q4 Q4 YTD YTD  
    2015 2014 2015 2014  
    $ 59,694 $ 449 $ 100,598 $ 18,549  

 

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities includes a total of $62,048 ($124 as at December 31, 2014) payable to this law firm. In addition, accounts payable and accrued liabilities includes $34,881 ($23,673 as at December 31, 2014) related to re-imbursement of expenses owing to persons who are Directors or Officers of NXT.

Accounts receivable includes short-term loans due from two employees totaling $51,026. These loans mature on October 1, 2016, and bear interest at a variable rate, which is currently 1%.  

Critical Accounting Estimates

The key elements and assumptions are substantially unchanged from those described in NXT's annual audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2014. The following is also important to note:

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015

 Page | 18
   

Revenue Recognition

Revenue earned on SFD® survey contracts (net of any related foreign sales taxes charged) is recognized on a completed contract basis. This method of revenue recognition is currently deemed as appropriate given the complex nature of the end product that is delivered to the client - while the quantity of data acquisition can be measured based on actual line kilometers flown, the acquired SFD® data does not realize its full value until it is processed, interpreted in detail, and a recommendations report is generated and reviewed with the client's geological and geophysical staff.

All funds received or invoiced in advance of completion of the contract are reflected as deferred revenue and classified as a current liability on our balance sheet. All survey expenditures and obligations related to uncompleted SFD® survey contracts (including directly related sales commissions) are reflected as work-in-progress and classified as a current asset on our balance sheet. Upon completion of the related contract, unearned revenue and the work-in-progress is moved as appropriate to the statement of earnings (loss) as either revenue or survey cost. Survey costs do not include any salaries and overhead related to SFD® data interpretation staff (which is included in G&A expense) or amortization of property and equipment expense.

Changes in Accounting Policies Including Initial Adoption

The factors are substantially unchanged; refer to NXT’s annual MD&A as at and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Future Accounting Policy Changes – Revenue recognition

In May 2014, the US Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance on accounting for “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which supersedes the current revenue recognition requirements and most industry-specific guidance. This new guidance will require that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This new guidance will be effective from January 1, 2018, and early application is not permitted.

There will be two methods in which the amendment can be applied: (1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period (which will include NXT’s fiscal years 2015 to 2017) presented, or (2) retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. NXT is evaluating the effect of the future adoption of this new guidance, and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements, which currently reflect the completed contract method of revenue recognition.

Risk Factors

NXT is exposed to numerous business related risks, some of which are unique to the nature of its operations. Many of these risks can not be readily controlled.

Future Operations

NXT continues to advance towards wide-spread commercialization of its SFD® technology. Its ability to generate cash flow from operations will depend on its ability to service its existing clients and develop new clients for its SFD® services. Management recognizes that the commercialization phase can last for several years, and that it can have significant economic dependence on a small number of clients, which can have a material effect on the Company's operating results and financial position.

NXT anticipates that it has sufficient working capital on hand to fund operations, and that it will be able to generate both net income and cash from operations in future years based on its current business model; however this outcome cannot be predicted with certainty. The Company previously had a history of periodically generating net losses and having limited availability of working capital.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015

 Page | 19
   

International operations

NXT conducts the majority of its operations in foreign countries, some of which it has not operated in before. This exposes NXT to various risks related to stability of political regimes, knowledge of the local customs, duties and other taxes, foreign currency and funds repatriation, the ability to access the relevant local services, and potential delays in commencing the projects.

Management and staff

NXT's success is currently largely dependent on the performance of a limited group of senior management and staff. The loss of the services of any of these persons could have an adverse effect on our business and prospects. There is no assurance that NXT can maintain the services of our complement of management, Directors, staff and other qualified personnel that are required to operate and expand our business.

Reliance on specialized equipment, and the protection of intellectual property

NXT currently has a limited number of SFD® survey sensors which are used in survey data acquisition operations. In addition, there is potential risk that the equipment could become damaged or destroyed during operations, become obsolete, or that a third party might claim an interest in our proprietary intellectual property. The costs of legal defence of our rights to the SFD® technology could be material.

Related party transactions

NXT may periodically enter into related party transactions with its Officers and Directors. The most significant related party transaction was the historical "Technology Transfer Agreement" executed on December 31, 2006 between NXT and its CEO, President and Director whereby NXT issued 10,000,000 convertible preferred shares in exchange for the rights to utilize the SFD® technology. The final total of 8,000,000 outstanding preferred shares were converted by NXT on August 31, 2015.

As was noted previously, in January 2014, Rights were personally granted by the CEO to certain individuals to acquire up to 1,000,000 of the common shares which later became issued to him in August, 2015 upon final conversion of the preferred shares.

All related party transactions have the potential to create conflicts of interest that may undermine the Board of Director's fiduciary responsibility to NXT shareholders. NXT manages this risk of conflict of interest through maintenance of a strong independent Board of Directors. Six of the seven current Directors are independent. All significant transactions between Officers and or Directors of the Company are negotiated on behalf of NXT and voted upon by the disinterested Directors to protect the best interests of all shareholders.

Volatility in oil and natural gas commodity prices may affect demand for our services

NXT's customer base is in the oil and natural gas exploration industry, which is exposed to risks of volatility in oil and natural gas commodity prices. As such, demand for our services, and prospective revenues, may become adversely impacted by ongoing declines in oil and natural gas prices. The impact of price changes on our ability to enter into SFD® survey contracts cannot be readily determined. However, in general, if commodity prices decline significantly, our opportunity to obtain and execute SFD® survey contracts will also likely decline, at least in the short term.

Foreign currency fluctuations

NXT currently bills its revenues in US$ and occasionally local currencies (such as in Bolivia, which has a rate fixed to the US$). We frequently hold cash in Cdn$ as well as in US$ and other foreign currencies (such as in Bolivia and Colombia) and are thus exposed to foreign exchange risk due to foreign currency fluctuations. Additionally, most of our operating expenses are incurred in Cdn$. We do not currently engage in currency hedging activities which can be used to mitigate this risk.

As NXT continues to expand into foreign markets, it may become exposed to additional foreign currency fluctuation risks, and currency hedging strategies are being assessed to be utilized where appropriate.

NXT Energy Solutions Inc.

MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2015

Interest rate fluctuations

NXT periodically invests excess cash in short-term investments which generally yield fixed interest rates. Accordingly, NXT faces some risk related to volatility in interest rates, as interest income may be adversely affected by any material changes in interest rates.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures ("DCP") and
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting ("ICFR")

NXT's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") (together, the "Responsible Officers") are responsible for establishing and maintaining DCP, or causing them to be designed under their supervision, for NXT to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the Company is made known to the Responsible Officers by others within the organization, particularly during the period in which the Company's quarterly and year-end consolidated financial statements and MD&A are being prepared.

DCP and other procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the relevant security authority in either Canada or the United States of America. DCP include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Responsible Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of December 31, 2015 an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of management, including the CEO and the CFO, of the effectiveness of the Company's DCP as defined under the rules adopted by the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and by the US SEC. In making this assessment, they used the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework 2013, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Through this evaluation the CEO and the CFO concluded that there are material weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have a direct impact on the Company’s DCP:

·Due to the limited number of staff, it is not feasible to achieve adequate segregation of incompatible duties. NXT mitigates this deficiency by adding management and Audit Committee review procedures over the areas where inadequate segregation of duties are of the greatest concern, and
·NXT does not have a sufficient level of staff with specialized expertise to adequately conduct separate preparation and a subsequent independent review of certain complex or highly judgmental accounting issues. These complex areas have included accounting for income taxes, stock based compensation expense, and prior to 2015, valuation of US$ Warrants. NXT mitigates this deficiency by preparing financial statements with their best judgments and estimates of the complex accounting matters and relies on reviews by management, external consultants and the Audit Committee for quality assurance.

As NXT continues to expand our operations, we seek to reduce these risks by adding additional staff resources and the use of out-sourced consultants as financial resources permit.

Notwithstanding NXT’s efforts to mitigate the risks associated with the above mentioned deficiencies, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company's ICFR are not effective and as a result its DCP are not effective as at December 31, 2015. NXT reached this conclusion based upon their assessment that there is more than a remote likelihood that its ICFR will not prevent or detect material misstatements if they should exist in our consolidated financial statements.

There are inherent limitations on the ability of the Responsible Officers to design and implement DCP and ICFR on a cost effective basis, which may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency and timeliness of interim and annual filings and other reports provided under securities legislation.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, there was no change in the Company's ICFR that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our ICFR.

Notes to Financial Statements  
1. Company Background

NXT Energy Solutions Inc. (the "Company" or "NXT") is a publicly traded company based in Calgary, Canada.

 

NXT's proprietary Stress Field Detection ("SFDÒ") technology is an airborne survey system that is used in the oil and natural gas exploration industry to help aid in identifying areas with hydrocarbon reservoir potential. Since 2008, NXT's sales activities are focused on international and frontier exploration markets.

 

Specific rights to utilize this technology were initially obtained by NXT in 2005 and the rights were formally acquired by NXT in 2015 (see note 10(i)).

 

Prior to 2015, NXT's financial statements reflected disclosure related to the use of the "going concern" basis of presentation. Significant progress was made in 2015 in expanding the business, including securing, executing, and delivering the sizeable Bolivia survey contract (see note 15), which resulted in a significant expansion of the Company's liquidity and working capital in 2015.

 

Management determined in preparing these financial statements that, as at December 31, 2015, there is no material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.  However, NXT's financial results are currently dependent on a limited number of client projects (see note 16), and its longer term success remains dependent upon the ability to continue to attract new client projects and expand its revenue base.

Notes to Financial Statements  
2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

 

These consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America ("US GAAP") and by applying the same accounting policies and methods as used in preparing the consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

Consolidation

 

These consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries (all of which are inactive, other than its operation in Bolivia). All significant inter-company balances and transactions among NXT and its subsidiaries have been eliminated and are therefore not reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

 

Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these consolidated financial statements as well as revenues and expenses recorded during the reporting periods.

 

Estimates made relate primarily to the estimated useful lives of intellectual property and property and equipment, the measurement of stock-based compensation expense, work-in-process and deferred revenue balances, the valuation of the US$ Warrants, valuation of deferred income tax assets, and estimates for asset retirement obligations. The estimates and assumptions used are based upon management's best estimate. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period when determined. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and short term securities with an original maturity less than 90 days from the date of acquisition.

 

Short Term Investments

 

Short term investments are recorded at fair value, and include short term securities, held by a major Canadian chartered bank, with original maturity dates greater than 90 days but less than one year.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues from SFD® survey contracts performed by NXT (net of any related foreign sales tax) are recognized using the completed contract method of revenue recognition. Substantial completion of the contract culminates with NXT's delivery to its clients of a final interpretation and recommendations report for the survey project. This method is viewed as appropriate as prior to that point, the raw SFD® survey data obtained by NXT cannot be interpreted or utilized in an independent, meaningful way by the client.

 

Amounts received or invoiced in advance of completion of the contract are reflected as deferred revenue and classified as a current liability. At the end of each applicable quarterly fiscal period, all related survey expenditures and obligations (including sales commissions incurred) related to uncompleted contracts are reflected as work-in-progress and classified as current assets.

 

Upon completion of the contract deliverables, unearned revenue and the related work-in-progress are reflected in the statement of income (loss) as either revenue or survey cost. Survey costs do not include staff and related overhead costs (which are included in general and administrative expense) or any amortization of property and equipment.

 

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

 

Derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value with any realized and unrealized gains (losses) recognized included in the determination of net income (loss) for the period. NXT does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivatives. Any outstanding derivatives are classified into one of three categories based on a three level fair value hierarchy as noted below. As at December 31, 2015 and 2014, NXT had no outstanding derivative instruments.

 

In Level I, the fair value of assets and liabilities is determined by reference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to assess at the measurement date.

 

In Level II, determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities is based on the extrapolation of inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level I, for which all significant inputs are observable directly or indirectly. Such inputs include published exchange rates, interest rates, yield curves, and stock quotes from external data service providers. Transfers between Level I and Level II would occur when there is a change in market circumstances.

 

In Level III, the fair value of assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis is determined using a market approach based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value can fluctuate between Level II and Level III depending on the proportion of the value of the contract that extends beyond the time frame for which inputs are considered to be observable. As contracts near maturity and observable market data becomes available, the contracts are transferred out of Level III and into Level II.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization, which is recorded over the estimated service lives of the assets using the following annual rates and methods:

 

Computer hardware (including survey equipment) 30% declining balance
Computer software 100% declining balance
Aircraft 10% declining balance
Furniture and other equipment 20% declining balance
Leasehold improvements over the remaining term of the lease

 

Management periodically reviews the carrying values of property and equipment to ensure that any impairment in value is recognized and reflected in results of operations.

 

Intellectual Property and Research and Development Expenditures

 

Intellectual property acquired is recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization, which is recorded over the estimated minimum useful life of the assets. Intellectual property is also subject to ongoing tests of potential impairment of the recorded net book value.

 

Research and development ("R&D") expenditures incurred to develop, improve and test the SFD® survey system and related components are expensed as incurred. Any intellectual property that is acquired for the purpose of enhancing research and development projects, if there is no alternative use for the intellectual property, is expensed in the period acquired. No significant external R&D was incurred in the years ended 2013, 2014 and 2015.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the average exchange rate for the applicable period. Shareholders' equity accounts are translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the applicable period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities (including work-in-progress and deferred revenue balances) are recorded at the relevant exchange rates for the period in which the balances arose. Any related foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from these translations are included in the determination of net income (loss) for the period.

 

Prior to 2010, NXT had active US subsidiaries which had the US dollar as their functional currency. Historic foreign currency translation adjustments related to the consolidation of these now inactive subsidiaries is the only component of accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of shareholders' equity.

 

Income Taxes

 

NXT follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities based on temporary differences in reported amounts for financial statement and income tax purposes, at the income tax rates expected to apply in the future periods when the temporary differences are expected to be reversed or realized. The effect of a change in income tax rates on deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities is recognized in income in the period when the tax rate change is enacted. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

 

Stock based compensation expense

 

NXT follows the fair value method of accounting for stock options that are granted to acquire common shares under NXT's stock option plan. Under this method, an estimate of the fair value of the cost of stock options that are granted to employees, directors and consultants is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and charged to income over the future vesting period of the stock options, with a corresponding increase recorded in contributed capital. Upon exercise of the stock options, the consideration received by NXT, and the related amount which was previously recorded in contributed capital, is recognized as an increase in the recorded value of the common shares of the Company.

 

Stock based compensation expense related to stock options granted to non-employees is periodically re-measured until the earlier of the completion of their service period or when the vesting period is completed. Changes to the re-measured compensation are recognized in the period of change and amortized over the remaining life of the vesting period in the same manner as the original stock option.

  

Income (loss) per share

 

Basic income (loss) per share amounts are calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares that are outstanding for the fiscal period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that the shares were outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per share are computed using the treasury stock method, whereby the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include any additional shares that would be issued from the assumed exercise of stock options and common share purchase warrants. The incremental number of shares added under the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding stock options and warrants that are exercisable at exercise prices below the Company's average market price (i.e. they were "in-the-money") for the applicable fiscal period are exercised and then that number of incremental shares is reduced by the number of shares that could have been repurchased by the Company from the issuance proceeds, using the average market price of the Company's shares for the applicable fiscal period.

 

No addition to the basic number of shares is made when calculating the diluted number of shares if the diluted per share amounts become anti-dilutive (such as occurs in the case where there is a net loss for the period).

 

Future Accounting Policy Changes

 

Revenue recognition:

 

In May 2014, the US Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new guidance on accounting for "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which supersedes the current revenue recognition requirements and most industry-specific guidance. This new guidance will require that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

 

This new guidance will be effective from January 1, 2018, and early application is not permitted. There will be two methods in which the amendment can be applied: (1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period (which will include NXT's fiscal years 2015 and 2016) presented, or (2) retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. NXT is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new guidance and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements.

5. Intellectual property

The intellectual property asset recorded in 2015, including a related deferred tax effect of $6,823,000, represents NXT's acquisition of the SFD® technology upon the conversion in 2015 of 8,000,000 preferred shares at an assigned fair value of $18,448,000 (see note 10 (ii)).

 

Intellectual property is being amortized on a straight line basis over its estimated minimum useful life of 15 years. It is estimated that for each of the 5 future years ending December 31, 2016 to 2020, amortization expense of $1,685,000 per year (and an aggregate 5 year total of $8,425,000) will be recorded by NXT.

Asset retirement obligations ("ARO") relate to minor interests in oil and natural gas wells in which NXT has outstanding abandonment and reclamation obligations in accordance with government regulations. The Company's obligation relates to its interests in 6 gross (1.2 net) wells. ARO have an estimated future liability of approximately $59,000 which is based on estimates of the future timing and costs to abandon, remediate and reclaim the well sites within the next five years. The net present value of the ARO is as noted below, and has been calculated using an inflation rate of 3.4% and discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate of 10%.

In 2012, NXT conducted private placement financings (the "2012 Financings", for proceeds of $3,183,132) which consisted of units issued at a price of US $0.75 (the "Units"). Each Unit consisted of one NXT common share and one warrant (the "US$ Warrants") to purchase an additional NXT common share at a price of US $1.20 for a term of two years from the date of issue. Including 244,816 finder's warrants issued, a total of 4,502,821 US$ Warrants were issued in the 2012 Financings.

10. Preferred shares

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of preferred shares, issuable in series.

 

(i) History of Preferred Shares issued

 

Specific rights to utilize the SFD® technology for hydrocarbon exploration were licensed in 2005 from NXT's current Chief Executive Officer and President (the "CEO") pursuant to the execution of a Technology Transfer Agreement (the "TTA") which had a 10 year term. The TTA required the completion of various conditions related to 10,000,000 series 1, convertible preferred shares (the "Preferred Shares") that were issued in 2005 in exchange for the rights obtained under the TTA.

 

These Preferred Shares had a maturity date of December 31, 2015 (the "Maturity Date", which corresponded with the term of the TTA), were non-voting, did not participate in any dividends, and were convertible into 10,000,000 NXT common shares (on a 1 for 1 basis) under the following terms:

 

· 2,000,000 of the Preferred Shares became convertible into common shares upon issue. Effective May 22, 2013, these 2,000,000 Preferred Shares were converted into 2,000,000 common shares.
   
· the remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares were convertible into common shares if the Company achieved certain pre-defined revenue milestones on or before the Maturity Date.

 

These shares were originally recorded at their estimated fair value as at December 31, 2005, with the total substantially assigned to the 2,000,000 Preferred Shares portion which was immediately convertible. The remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares were assigned a nominal value in 2005 as noted below, reflecting the uncertainty that all of the required revenue milestones would be achieved over the 10 year term of the TTA, which would result in eventual conversion into common shares:

 

    # of Preferred        
Fair values assigned in 2005   Shares     $ value  
convertible upon issue effective December 31, 2005            
(shares subsequently converted in 2013)     2,000,000     $ 3,256,400  
conditionally convertible on or before December 31, 2015     8,000,000       232,600  
      10,000,000       3,489,000  

 

A continuity of the Preferred Shares that were originally issued in 2005 is as follows:

 

    # of shares     historic  
    outstanding     $ value  
As at December 31, 2012     10,000,000     $ 3,489,000

As at December 31, 2014     8,000,000       232,600  
Conversion of Preferred Shares in August 2015 (see (ii))     (8,000,000 )     (232,600 )
As at December 31, 2015     -       -  

 

(ii) Conversion of Preferred Shares in 2015

 

Although the pre-defined revenue thresholds were not going to be met, under the TTA the Company was required to convert the remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares into common shares in order to retain its specific rights to utilize the SFD® technology. The conversion was approved by the independent members of NXT's Board of Directors on August 31, 2015 (the "Conversion"). After the Conversion, NXT's CEO continues to retain the rights to utilize SFD® in other potential field-of-use applications. 

 

The Conversion gave rise to the application of fair-value accounting, whereby the 8,000,000 common shares issued in 2015 were assigned an estimated fair-value (based on the NXT common share price at the time of Conversion) of $18,448,000 (see also note 5).

 

The historic value of $232,600 which was attributed to the 8,000,000 Preferred Shares at the time of their original issuance in 2005 was transferred to the common shares balance upon Conversion in 2015.

 

(iii) Rights related to Preferred Shares

 

In January 2014, NXT's CEO (the "Grantor") personally granted (to a total of 17 persons, including NXT employees, directors, officers, advisors and others) "Rights" to acquire a total of 1,000,000 of the common shares which later became issued to him in August 2015 upon the conversion of the remaining 8,000,000 Preferred Shares. Each of the Rights were subject to certain vesting provisions and entitle the holder to acquire from the Grantor one common share of NXT at a fixed exercise price of $1.77. The Rights originally had an expiry date of December 31, 2015, which, effective that date, was extended to December 31, 2016 (the "Extension").

 

A total of 795,000 of these Rights were granted to certain of NXT's directors, officers, employees and advisors, and are considered as supplemental incentives, in addition to those which have been granted under NXT's stock option plan (see note 12).

 

Accordingly, this gives rise to the recognition of additional compensation expense by NXT, based on the estimated fair value of certain of these Rights as at their grant date in 2014, and the Extension in December 2015. The fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and recognized over the remaining vesting term of the Rights, based on the following assumptions:

 

    2015     2014  
Expected dividends paid per common share   Nil     Nil  
Expected life in years     0.8       1.9  
Expected volatility in the price of common shares     42 %     62 %
Risk free interest rate     1.0 %     1.0 %
Weighted average fair value per Right at grant date   $ 0.26     $ 0.60  

 

In connection with the Rights, NXT recognized the following as a component of stock based compensation expense (see note 12 (ii)):

Prior to that date, they were considered to be contingently issuable, and were only included in the diluted number of shares outstanding if there was a net income applicable for the period.

13. Financial instruments

(i) Non-derivative financial instruments

 

The Company's non-derivative financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payables and accrued liabilities, income taxes payable, and capital lease obligations. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair values due to their short terms to maturity. NXT is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. NXT is exposed to foreign exchange risk as a result of holding US, Bolivian, and Colombian denominated financial instruments.

   

(ii) Derivative financial instruments

 

As at December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no US$ Warrants outstanding. As the exercise price of the US$ Warrants that were issued in 2012 (see note 9 (i)) was in US dollars, which is a currency other than the functional currency of NXT, the US$ Warrants were considered to have an embedded derivative and were required to be recorded at fair value each reporting period. The amount recorded for this instrument, which was included with current liabilities, was adjusted to fair value at each period end over the life of the US$ Warrants, with the changes in fair value reflected in earnings.

 

Financial instruments that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are required to be classified into one of three categories based upon a fair value hierarchy. The Company's only financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were the US$ Warrants. NXT classified these derivative financial instruments as level III where the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques that refer to both observable and unobservable market data. The valuation model was based on the Black-Scholes inputs noted below, as well as a discount to reflect the potential dilution impact upon exercise of the US$ Warrants and NXT's low stock market liquidity.

 

A continuity of the fair value of the US$ Warrants that were issued in the 2012 Financings is as follows:

 

Year ended December 31   2015     2014     2013  
Fair value of US$ Warrants

Fair value of US$ Warrants, end of the year     n/a       -       1,238,000  

 

The outstanding US$ Warrants were re-valued at each period end using the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following weighted average assumptions:

 

As at December 31   2015     2014     2013

14. Income tax expense

NXT periodically earns revenues while operating outside of Canada in foreign jurisdictions. Payments made to NXT for services rendered to clients and subsidiary companies in certain countries may be subject to foreign with-holding taxes. Such taxes incurred are only recoverable in certain limited circumstances, including potential utilization in Canada as a foreign tax credit, or against future taxable earnings from the foreign jurisdictions.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2015, NXT recorded foreign withholding taxes of $1,755,678 (2014 - $nil and 2013 - $399,546) on a portion of its revenues generated on international projects, including with-holding taxes incurred on certain charges to a foreign subsidiary.

  

Income tax expense is different from the expected amount that would be computed by applying the statutory Canadian federal and provincial income tax rates to NXT's income (loss) before income taxes as follows:

15. Bolivia Survey Project

In May 2015, NXT executed a contract to conduct a US $13.4 million (US $12.9 million net of applicable local sales taxes owing) survey project with a new client in Bolivia (the "Bolivia Project"). This contract was completed and recognized in revenue in NXT's Q4-2015 period.

 

A contract amendment for an additional survey project valued at US $1.0 million (net of taxes) was finalized in October, 2015. The results for this project were delivered to the client in January, 2016, and will be recognized as revenue in the Q1-2016 period. Accordingly, deferred revenue includes US $0.5 million (net of taxes) which had been invoiced as a progress billing to December 31, 2015 for this project.

 

General and administrative expense for 2015 includes a total of $353,000 related to the payment of a corporate bonus pool based on financial results of the Bolivia Project.

18. Commitments and contingencies

(i) Office premises lease

 

NXT has an operating lease commitment on its Calgary office space for a 10 year term at an initial estimated minimum monthly lease payment of $44,486 (including operating costs). The estimated future minimum annual commitment is as follows as at December 31, 2015:

 

Fiscal year ending December 31      
2016   $ 533,826  
2017     533,826  
2018     533,826  
2019     533,826  
2020     536,792  
      2,672,096  
Thereafter, 2021 through 2025     2,592,018  
      5,264,114  

 

Deferred charges of $87,756 as at December 31, 2015 relates to the valuation of an initial free-rent period received on this lease in 2015. This balance will be amortized as a reduction of general and administrative expense over the 10 year term of the lease commitment.

 

(ii) Bank letters of credit

 

On the Bolivia Project, NXT issued various bank letters of credit as standard performance guarantees for the contracts. As at December 31, 2015, bank letters of credit totaling US $1,166,705 are outstanding, and expire on March 31, 2016.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Significant Accounting Policies Policies  
Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015 have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America ("US GAAP") and by applying the same accounting policies and methods as used in preparing the consolidated financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries (all of which are inactive, other than its operation in Bolivia). All significant inter-company balances and transactions among NXT and its subsidiaries have been eliminated and are therefore not reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these consolidated financial statements as well as revenues and expenses recorded during the reporting periods.

 

Estimates made relate primarily to the estimated useful lives of intellectual property and property and equipment, the measurement of stock-based compensation expense, work-in-process and deferred revenue balances, the valuation of the US$ Warrants, valuation of deferred income tax assets, and estimates for asset retirement obligations. The estimates and assumptions used are based upon management's best estimate. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period when determined. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and short term securities with an original maturity less than 90 days from the date of acquisition.

Short Term Investments

Short term investments are recorded at fair value, and include short term securities, held by a major Canadian chartered bank, with original maturity dates greater than 90 days but less than one year.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues from SFD® survey contracts performed by NXT (net of any related foreign sales tax) are recognized using the completed contract method of revenue recognition. Substantial completion of the contract culminates with NXT's delivery to its clients of a final interpretation and recommendations report for the survey project. This method is viewed as appropriate as prior to that point, the raw SFD® survey data obtained by NXT cannot be interpreted or utilized in an independent, meaningful way by the client.

 

Amounts received or invoiced in advance of completion of the contract are reflected as deferred revenue and classified as a current liability. At the end of each applicable quarterly fiscal period, all related survey expenditures and obligations (including sales commissions incurred) related to uncompleted contracts are reflected as work-in-progress and classified as current assets.

 

Upon completion of the contract deliverables, unearned revenue and the related work-in-progress are reflected in the statement of income (loss) as either revenue or survey cost. Survey costs do not include staff and related overhead costs (which are included in general and administrative expense) or any amortization of property and equipment.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value with any realized and unrealized gains (losses) recognized included in the determination of net income (loss) for the period. NXT does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivatives. Any outstanding derivatives are classified into one of three categories based on a three level fair value hierarchy as noted below. As at December 31, 2015 and 2014, NXT had no outstanding derivative instruments.

 

In Level I, the fair value of assets and liabilities is determined by reference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to assess at the measurement date.

 

In Level II, determination of the fair value of assets and liabilities is based on the extrapolation of inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level I, for which all significant inputs are observable directly or indirectly. Such inputs include published exchange rates, interest rates, yield curves, and stock quotes from external data service providers. Transfers between Level I and Level II would occur when there is a change in market circumstances.

 

In Level III, the fair value of assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis is determined using a market approach based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value can fluctuate between Level II and Level III depending on the proportion of the value of the contract that extends beyond the time frame for which inputs are considered to be observable. As contracts near maturity and observable market data becomes available, the contracts are transferred out of Level III and into Level II.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization, which is recorded over the estimated service lives of the assets using the following annual rates and methods:

 

Computer hardware (including survey equipment) 30% declining balance
Computer software 100% declining balance
Aircraft 10% declining balance
Furniture and other equipment 20% declining balance
Leasehold improvements over the remaining term of the lease

 

Management periodically reviews the carrying values of property and equipment to ensure that any impairment in value is recognized and reflected in results of operations.

Intellectual Property and Research and Development Expenditures

Intellectual property acquired is recorded at cost, less accumulated amortization, which is recorded over the estimated minimum useful life of the assets. Intellectual property is also subject to ongoing tests of potential impairment of the recorded net book value.

 

Research and development ("R&D") expenditures incurred to develop, improve and test the SFD® survey system and related components are expensed as incurred. Any intellectual property that is acquired for the purpose of enhancing research and development projects, if there is no alternative use for the intellectual property, is expensed in the period acquired. No significant external R&D was incurred in the years ended 2013, 2014 and 2015.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the average exchange rate for the applicable period. Shareholders' equity accounts are translated into Canadian dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the applicable period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities (including work-in-progress and deferred revenue balances) are recorded at the relevant exchange rates for the period in which the balances arose. Any related foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from these translations are included in the determination of net income (loss) for the period.

 

Prior to 2010, NXT had active US subsidiaries which had the US dollar as their functional currency. Historic foreign currency translation adjustments related to the consolidation of these now inactive subsidiaries is the only component of accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of shareholders' equity.

Income Taxes

NXT follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method recognizes deferred income tax assets and liabilities based on temporary differences in reported amounts for financial statement and income tax purposes, at the income tax rates expected to apply in the future periods when the temporary differences are expected to be reversed or realized. The effect of a change in income tax rates on deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities is recognized in income in the period when the tax rate change is enacted. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.

Stock based compensation expense

NXT follows the fair value method of accounting for stock options that are granted to acquire common shares under NXT's stock option plan. Under this method, an estimate of the fair value of the cost of stock options that are granted to employees, directors and consultants is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and charged to income over the future vesting period of the stock options, with a corresponding increase recorded in contributed capital. Upon exercise of the stock options, the consideration received by NXT, and the related amount which was previously recorded in contributed capital, is recognized as an increase in the recorded value of the common shares of the Company.

 

Stock based compensation expense related to stock options granted to non-employees is periodically re-measured until the earlier of the completion of their service period or when the vesting period is completed. Changes to the re-measured compensation are recognized in the period of change and amortized over the remaining life of the vesting period in the same manner as the original stock option.

Income (loss) per share

Basic income (loss) per share amounts are calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares that are outstanding for the fiscal period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that the shares were outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per share are computed using the treasury stock method, whereby the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include any additional shares that would be issued from the assumed exercise of stock options and common share purchase warrants. The incremental number of shares added under the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding stock options and warrants that are exercisable at exercise prices below the Company's average market price (i.e. they were "in-the-money") for the applicable fiscal period are exercised and then that number of incremental shares is reduced by the number of shares that could have been repurchased by the Company from the issuance proceeds, using the average market price of the Company's shares for the applicable fiscal period.

 

No addition to the basic number of shares is made when calculating the diluted number of shares if the diluted per share amounts become anti-dilutive (such as occurs in the case where there is a net loss for the period).

Future Accounting Policy Changes

Revenue recognition:

 

In May 2014, the US Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new guidance on accounting for "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which supersedes the current revenue recognition requirements and most industry-specific guidance. This new guidance will require that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

 

This new guidance will be effective from January 1, 2018, and early application is not permitted. There will be two methods in which the amendment can be applied: (1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period (which will include NXT's fiscal years 2015 and 2016) presented, or (2) retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application. NXT is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new guidance and has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements.
