CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended November 30, 2021, 2020 and 2019

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)


 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Directors of Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at November 30, 2021 and 2020, and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders' equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2021, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at November 30, 2021 and 2020, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2021, 2020 and 2019 accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1 the Company has not generated positive cash flows from operations since inception. As at November 30, 2021, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $74,128 and an accumulated deficit of $13,867,962. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Critical Audit Matter

As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Tetra Drones Ltd. ("Tetra Drones") which resulted in the recognition of an intangible asset related to customer relationships. Management assesses whether any indication of impairment exists at the end of each reporting period with respect to finite life intangible assets. In this assessment, management applies significant judgement to assess the existence of impairment indicators that could give rise to the requirement to conduct a formal impairment test. Due to the judgements and assumptions involved in the making this assessment, we identified this area as critical audit matter.

We have determined that the assessment of existence of impairment indicators for the customer relationships is a critical audit matter primarily due to the application of judgment in assessing specific factors such as (a) the high degree of auditor judgement and subjectivity in performing procedures relating to the assessment of indicators of impairment, (b) significant changes with an adverse effect on the use of the intangible asset and (c) current period cash flow or operating losses, combined with very little history of operations associated with the use of the customer relationships. This led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures to evaluate audit evidence relating to the judgements made by management in their assessment.

Addressing the critical audit matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. Our audit procedures included amongst others, (a) evaluating the reasonableness of management's assessment of indicators of impairment with respect to the customer relationships, (b) completion of our own assessment of impairment indicators, (c) a review of matters that impact the Company's ability to continue operations, and (d) evaluating whether there were adverse economic changes in the Company's industry by considering external observable market inputs.


Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the years ended November 30, 2021, 2020 and 2019
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN

Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia on October 17, 2011. The head office, principal address and registered and records office of the Company are located at 206 - 1045 West 8th Avenue, Vancouver, B.C., V6H 1C3.

On March 10, 2016, the Company's common shares commenced trading on the CSE. On January 8, 2019, the Company's common shares commenced trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in Germany under the Symbol: 4XA, WKN# - A2N8RH. Effective August 27, 2019, the Company's common shares commenced trading on the OTC Markets Group ("OTCQB") under the symbol: PLRTF.

Since the Company completed its business acquisition with Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. ("Plymouth Rock USA") in 2018, it has changed its name from Alexandra Capital Corp. to Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. with the trading symbol "PRT" on November 1, 2018. As a result of the acquisition, the Company's principal business activity through its subsidiary, Plymouth Rock USA ("PRT USA"), was changed to focus on developing technologies related to remotely detecting assault firearms and suicide bombs concealed on the person or a carry bag. The Company focuses on detection methods with and without the need for a checkpoint of the suspect who is being screened. The Company's planned products encompass the very latest radar, imaging, and Unmanned Aerial System ("UAS") technologies for quickly detecting, locating and identifying the presence of threats and for search and rescue missions for law enforcement.

On March 26, 2021, the Company incorporated a subsidiary in United Kingdom, Plymouth Rock Technologies UK Limited ("PRT UK"). The purpose of PRT UK is to augment the Company's existing research and development of its drone technologies for the US and EMEA markets.

On June 4, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Tetra Drones Limited ("Tetra") (Note 3). The acquisition of Tetra provides the Company with drones production line in the United Kingdom.

Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. At present, the Company's operations do not generate cash flows from operations. The Company has incurred losses since inception and has a comprehensive loss of $4,944,231 for the year ended November 30, 2021, (2020 - $2,904,690) and had an accumulated deficit of $13,867,962 (2020 - $8,893,128). The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on achieving profitable operations, commercializing its technologies, and obtaining the necessary financing in order to develop these technologies further. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The Company will continue to review the prospects of raising additional debt and equity financing to support its operations until such time that its operations become self- sustaining, to fund its research and development activities and to ensure the realization of its assets and discharge of its liabilities. While the Company is expending its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate sufficient funds for future operations. These factors and uncertainty casts significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and therefore it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company is not expected to be profitable during the ensuing 12 months, and therefore, must rely on securing additional funds from either issuance of debt or equity financing for cash consideration. During the year ended November 30, 2021, the Company received net cash proceeds of $4,417,047 (November 30, 2020 - $1,635,564) pursuant to financing activities. Management has been successful in raising capital through periodic private placements of the Company's common shares in the past, however there is no certainty that financing will be available in the future, or certainty that management's planned actions to address this situation will be successful.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the years ended November 30, 2021, 2020 and 2019
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN (continued)

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") with the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future rather than a process of forced liquidation. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. Such adjustments could be material.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic known as COVID-19. The expected impacts on global commerce are expected to be far reaching. Material uncertainties may come into existence that could influence management's going concern assumption. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is currently unknown and it is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company and its subsidiaries, in future periods, such as:

  • This will and has impacted demand and testing for the Company's products and services in the near term and will and has impacted the Company's supply chains.
  • It may and has also impacted the availability of external funding sources during this year.
  • the effect on labor availability due to the severity and the length of potential measures taken by governments to manage the spread of the disease.

Management continues to closely evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements ("Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board ("IASB") and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC").

These Financial Statements are authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 2, 2022.

These Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. In addition, these Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.

These Financial Statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company's functional currency. The functional currency of PRT USA is U.S. Dollars and the functional currency of PRT UK and Tetra is British Pound Sterling ("£"). The assets and liabilities of PRT USA, PRT UK and Tetra are translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income.

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of these Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions (continued)

Significant judgements and estimates used in preparing the Financial Statements include, but are not limited to the following:

(i) Deferred taxes

The calculation of deferred tax is based on the ability of the Company to generate future taxable income, the estimation of which is subject to significant uncertainty as to the amount and timing. The calculation of deferred tax is also based on assumptions, which are subject to uncertainty as to timing and which tax rates are expected to apply when temporary differences reverse. Deferred tax recorded is also subject to uncertainty regarding the magnitude on non-capital losses available for carry forward and of the balances in various tax pools as the corporate tax returns have not been prepared as of the date of financial statement preparation.

(ii) Stock-based compensation

The fair value of stock options and finders' warrants issued are subject to the limitations of the Black-Scholes option pricing model that incorporates market data and involves uncertainty in estimates used by management in the assumptions. Because the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected lift, volatility of share prices, risk-free rate and dividend yield, changes in subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

(iii) Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash generating unit ("CGU") exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. The fair value less costs to sell calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions in an arm's length transaction of similar assets or observable market prices less incremental costs for disposing of the asset. The value in use calculation is based on a discounted cash flow model.

At November 30, 2019, Management was unable to project cash flows that can be generated from its CGUs and consequently, the intangible assets acquired and the goodwill generated from a previously completed business acquisition were determined to be impaired, therefore an impairment loss of $1,572,552 was charged for the 2019 year end. No impairment loss was recorded during the years ended November 30, 2020 and 2021.

Significant judgments used in the preparation of these Financial Statements include, but are not limited to the following:

(i) Going concern

Management has applied judgements in the assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern when preparing its Financial Statements for the year ended November 30, 2021. Management prepares the Financial Statements on a going concern basis unless management either intends to liquidate the entity or to cease trading or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions (continued)

(i) Going concern (continued)

In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management accounts for all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, 12 months from the end of the reporting period.

(ii) Business combinations

Determination of whether a set of assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute the acquisition of a business or asset may require the Company to make certain judgments as to whether or not the assets acquired and liabilities assumed include the inputs, processes and outputs necessary to constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. Based on an assessment of the relevant facts and circumstances, the Company concluded that the acquisition disclosed in Note 3 was an asset acquisition.

(iii) Intangible assets

Intangible assets can be capitalized only if development costs can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. To determine if the future economic benefit is probable depends on the successful commercialization of its technologies and that in turn depends on the management's judgement and knowledge. As at November 30, 2021, the Company has customer relationships reported as intangible assets that are being amortized over a period of three years from date of acquisition.

Cash

Cash consists of amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments with limited interest and credit risk.

Consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances, transactions and any unrealized gains and losses arising from intercompany transactions, have been eliminated. The Company's subsidiaries are presented in the table below. PRT USA was incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware on March 22, 2018. PRT UK was incorporated under the General Corporation Law for England and Wales on March 26, 2021 and Tetra was acquired on June 4, 2021.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Intangible assets

Intangible assets that are reflected in the consolidated statements of financial position consist of assets acquired through business combinations or assets acquisition. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized separately from goodwill and are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date (which is regarded as their cost). An intangible asset is regarded as having an indefinite useful life when, based on all relevant factors, there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the asset is expected to generate net cash inflows. Accordingly, the Company does not amortize these intangible assets, but reviews them for impairment, annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired.

Development costs for internally-generated intangible assets are capitalized when all of the following conditions are met:

  • technical feasibility can be demonstrated;
  • management has the intention to complete the intangible asset and use it;
  • management can demonstrate the ability to use the intangible asset;
  • it is probable that the intangible asset will generate future economic benefits;
  • the Company can demonstrate the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use the intangible asset; and
  • costs attributable to the asset can be measured reliably.

The amount initially recognized for internally-generated intangible assets is the sum of the expenditures incurred from the date when the intangible asset first meets the recognition criteria listed above. Where no internally-generated intangible asset can be recognized, development expenditures are charged to the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Intangible assets with finite life are amortized over the estimated useful lives.

Equipment

Recognition and measurement

On initial recognition, equipment is valued at cost, being the purchase price and directly attributable cost of acquisition or construction required to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Company, including appropriate borrowing costs and the estimated present value of any future unavoidable costs of dismantling and removing the items. The corresponding liability is recognized within provisions.

Equipment is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization, less any accumulated impairment losses.

When parts of an item of equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of equipment.

Gains and losses

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount and are recognized net within other income in profit or loss.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Equipment (continued)

Amortization

Half of the normal amortization is taken in the year of acquisition for equipment with declining balance method. The amortization rates applicable to each category of property and equipment are as follows:

Computer equipment 55% declining balance

Furniture 20% declining balance
Leasehold improvements 30% declining balance
Demo equipment  20% declining balance

Vehicles 30% declining balance

Inventories

The Company values inventories at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes the costs of purchases net of vendor allowances plus other costs, such as transportation, that are directly incurred to bring the inventories to their present location and condition.

Business combinations

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values at the date of acquisition, of assets transferred, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Company. The acquiree's identifiable assets and liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Acquisition related costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. The excess of the consideration over the fair value of the net identifiable assets and liabilities acquired is recorded as goodwill. Any gain on a bargain purchase is recorded in profit or loss immediately. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred, except if related to the issue of debt or equity securities. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment.

Share capital

The Company records proceeds from the issuance of its common shares as equity. Proceeds received on the issuance of units, consisting of common shares and warrants are allocated between the common share and warrant component. The Company has adopted a residual value method with respect to the measurement of shares and warrants issued as private placement units. The residual value method first allocates value to the most easily measurable component based on fair value and then the residual value, if any, to the less easily measurable component.

The fair value of the common shares issued in the private placement was determined to be the more easily measurable component and were valued at their fair value, as determined by the closing quoted price on the issuance date. The remaining proceeds, if any, are allocated to the attached warrants. Any fair value attributed to the warrants is recorded as warrant reserve. Management does not expect to record a value to the warrant in most equity issuances as unit private placements are commonly priced at market or at a permitted discount to market. If the warrants are issued as share issuance costs, the fair value of agent's warrants are measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized in equity as a deduction from the proceeds.

If the warrants are exercised, the related amount is reclassified as share capital. If the warrants expire unexercised, the related amount remains in warrant reserve.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new common shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Common shares issued for consideration other than cash are valued based on their market value at the date that shares are issued.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Stock-based compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for the estimated fair value of equity-based instruments granted to both employees and non-employees. Compensation expense is recognized when the options are granted with the same amount being recorded as contributed surplus. The expense is determined using an option pricing model that accounts for the exercise price, the term of the option, the current share price, the expected volatility of the underlying shares, the expected dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option. If the options are exercised, contributed surplus will be reduced by the applicable amount. Stock-based compensation Share-based payment calculations have no effect in the Company's cash position.

Earnings (loss) per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated using the treasury stock method. This method assumes that common shares are issued for the exercise of options, warrants and convertible securities and that the assumed proceeds from the exercise of options, warrants and convertible securities are used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. The difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased is then added to the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding to determine the fully diluted number of common shares outstanding. No exercise or conversion is assumed during the periods in which a net loss is incurred as the effect is anti-dilutive.

Financial instruments

Financial assets

The Company recognizes financial assets when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are measured initially at their fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition. Transaction costs attributable to the acquisition of financial assets subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in profit or loss when incurred.

Subsequent to initial recognition, all financial assets are classified and subsequently measured at amortized cost. Interest income is calculated using the effective interest method and gains or losses arising from impairment, foreign exchange and derecognition are recognized in profit or loss. Financial assets measured at amortized cost are comprised of cash, accounts receivable and due from related parties.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Financial instruments (continued)

Financial assets (continued)

The Company reclassifies debt instruments only when its business model for managing those financial assets has changed. Reclassifications are applied prospectively from the reclassification date and any previously recognized gains, losses or interest are not restated.

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets. Expected credit losses are measured to reflect a probability-weighted amount, the time value of money, and reasonable and supportable information regarding past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

The Company applies the simplified approach for accounts receivable that do not contain a significant financing component. Using the simplified approach, the Company records a loss allowance equal to the expected credit losses resulting from all possible default events over the assets' contractual lifetime.

Financial assets are written off when the Company has no reasonable expectations of recovering all or any portion thereof.

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when its contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire.

Financial liabilities

The Company recognizes a financial liability when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. At initial recognition, the Company measures financial liabilities at their fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their issuance, with the exception of financial liabilities subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss for which transaction costs are immediately recorded in profit or loss.

Subsequent to initial recognition, all financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest, gains, and losses relating to a financial liability are recognized in profit or loss. Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost are comprised of accounts payable, lease liability, loans payable and due to related parties.

The Company derecognizes a financial liability only when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire.

Interest

Interest income and expense are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

The 'effective interest rate' is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments over the expected life of the financial instrument to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset or the amortized cost of the financial liability. The effective interest rate is calculated considering all contractual terms of the financial instruments, except for the expected credit losses of financial assets.

The 'amortized cost' of a financial asset or financial liability is the amount at which the instrument is measured on initial recognition minus principal repayments, plus or minus any cumulative amortization using the effective interest method of any difference between the initial amount and maturity amount and adjusted for any expected credit loss allowance. The 'gross carrying amount' of a financial asset is the amortized cost of a financial asset before adjusting for any expected credit losses.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Interest (continued)

Interest income and expense is calculated by applying the effective interest rate to the gross carrying amount of the financial asset (when the asset is not credit-impaired) or the amortized cost of the financial liability.

Where a financial asset has become credit-impaired subsequent to initial recognition, interest income is calculated in subsequent periods by applying the effective interest method to the amortized cost of the financial asset. If the asset subsequently ceases to be credit-impaired, calculation of interest income reverts to the gross basis.

Offsetting

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset, with the net amount presented in the statement of financial position, when, and only when, the Company has a current and legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Income and expenses are presented on a net basis only when permitted under IFRS, or when arising from a group of similar transactions if the resulting income and expenses are not material.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized by applying the five-step model under IFRS 15. The Company recognizes revenue when, or as the goods or services are transferred to the control of the customer and performance obligations are satisfied. The Company's revenue is comprised of sales of its radar systems, radar components and engineering design and development services. The Company's revenue is recognized when control of the goods has been transferred, being when the goods are delivered to customers and when all performance obligations have been fulfilled. The amounts recognized as revenue represent the fair values of the considerations received or receivable from third parties on the sales of goods to customers, net of goods and services taxes and less returns, and discounts, at which time there are no conditions for the payment to become due other than the passage of time. For its engineering design and development services, revenue is recognized when the service has been rendered.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized at fair value once there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to the grants and that the grants will be received. Government grants are recognized in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Company recognizes as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. A forgivable loan from government is treated as a government grant when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will meet the terms for forgiveness of the loan.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income taxes

Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to equity items, in which case it is

recognized in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years. Deferred tax is recorded using the liability method, providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences do not result in deferred tax assets or liabilities: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting profit (loss) nor taxable profit (loss); and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the financial position date.

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Related party transactions

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions.

Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control and related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Leases

The company adopted IFRS 16 effective December 1, 2019. The Company chose to adopt the modified retrospective approach on transition to IFRS 16 and has chosen not to restate comparative information in accordance with the transitional provisions in IFRS 16. As a result, the comparative information continues to be presented in accordance with the Company's previous accounting policies. The adoption of IFRS 16 resulted in the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability measured at the present value of the future lease payments on the consolidated statements of financial position. An amortization expense on the right-of-use asset and an interest expense on the lease liability has replaced the operating lease expense. IFRS 16 has changed the presentation of cash flows relating to leases in the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows, however, it does not cause a difference in the amount of cash transferred between the parties of the lease. In accordance with the transition of IFRS 16, the Company recognized a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $152,864 at the adoption date. When measuring lease liabilities, the Company's incremental borrowing rate applied was 15% per annum.

New IFRS standards that are effective for the current year

In October 2018, the IASB issued "Definition of a Business (Amendments to IFRS 3)". The amendments clarify the definition of a business, with the objective of assisting entities to determine whether a transaction should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition. The amendments provide an assessment framework to determine when a series of integrated activities is not a business. The amendments are effective for business combinations occurring on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2020. The Company adopted this amendment on December 1, 2020 and has determined that there has been no material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations not yet effective

Certain new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards have been issued by the IASB or the IFRIC during the year but are not yet effective. Some updates that are not applicable or are not consequential to the Company may have been excluded from the list below.

IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements ("IAS 1") - Classification of Liabilities as Current or Noncurrent were amended to clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period, specify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability, explain that rights are in existence if covenants are complied with at the end of the reporting period, and introduce a definition of 'settlement' to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier adoption is permitted.

IAS 16 - Property, Plant and Equipment - Proceeds before Intended Use - The amendments prohibit deducting from the cost of an item of property, plant and equipment any proceeds from selling items produced before that asset is available for use, i.e. proceeds while bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Consequently, an entity recognizes such sales proceeds and related costs in profit or loss. The entity measures the cost of those items in accordance with IAS 2 Inventories. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. Earlier adoption is permitted.

These new and amended standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

3. ACQUISITION

On June 4, 2021, the Company acquired the 100% issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Tetra from two arm's length parties for £350,000. Tetra was a privately held UK-based company which develops custom-made, Unmanned Aircraft Systems ("UAS"). The consideration of £350,000 ($579,682) is payable as follows:

1) An amount of £35,000 ($60,021) (paid) within 7 days after the date the Definitive Agreement were executed and delivered by all parties;

2) An amount of £35,000 ($60,479) (paid) within 21 days of the initial payment as described in instalment 1 above;

3) An amount of £140,000 ($236,411) (paid) within 120 days of the second instalment as described above; and

4) The remaining balance of £140,000 ($222,771) is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities) and will be paid within 120 days of the third instalment.

The Company applied the optional concentration test permitted under IFRS 3 to the acquisition which resulted in the acquired assets being accounted for as an asset acquisition. As such the purchase price was allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on their fair values at the date of acquisition.

The allocation of the consideration for the purposes of the consolidated statements of financial position is as follows:

Total Consideration      
Cash $ 579,682

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company's financial assets consist of cash, accounts receivable and due from related parties. The estimated fair values of cash, accounts receivable, and due from related parties approximate their respective carrying values due to the short period to maturity.

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

a. Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

b. Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

c. Level 3 - inputs that are not based on observable market data.

For the years ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, the fair values of the cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and amounts due to and from related parties, and loan payable approximate the book value due to the short-term nature.

The Company is exposed to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes, inclusive of counterparty limits, controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations when they become due. The Company ensures, as far as reasonably possible, it will have sufficient capital in order to meet short- term business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations and the Company's holdings of cash. The Company believes that these sources will be sufficient to cover the likely short-term cash requirements.

The Company's cash is currently invested in business accounts which is available on demand by the Company for its operations.

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company has no significant interest rate risk due to the short-term nature of its interest generating assets.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of a loss when a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's exposure to credit risk is limited to its cash. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by holding its cash in deposits with high credit quality financial institutions in Canada, USA and United Kingdom.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash, accounts receivable, leases, amounts due to and from related parties, and accounts payable that are denominated in US dollars and British Pound Sterling. A 10% fluctuations in the US dollar and British Pound Sterling against the Canadian dollar have affected comprehensive loss for the year by approximately $1,200 (2020 - $7,085 and 2019 - $1,100).

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

For the Years Ended November 30, 2021 and 2020


INTRODUCTION

The following information, prepared as of May 2, 2022, should be read in conjunction with the audited  consolidated financial statements of Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. ("the Company" or "Plymouth Rock" or "PRT") for the year ended November 30, 2021 as well as the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended November 30, 2020; including the notes thereto. The financial statements and financial data contained in this discussion and analysis are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The reporting currency is the Canadian dollar. 

The following discussion and analysis provide information that management believes is relevant to the assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. Certain statements herein contain forward-looking statements relating to the operations or to the environment in which we operate, which are based on our operations, forecasts, and projections. Forward-looking statements are not guaranteed of future performance.  They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions; and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. The risks include those outlined under the "Risk Factors" section of this MD&A and elsewhere in the Company's public disclosure documents. Included in the risk factors is the public health crisis caused by the pandemic, COVID-19 which caused disruptions in global supply chain, business operations and financial markets. As of report date, the crisis has not altered the ability of the Company to progress and test its technologies.  It is possible that COVID-19 may have other material adverse effect on the Company's business and financial condition, however the full effects of the impact are uncertain.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND OVERALL PERFORMANCE

The Company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia on October 17, 2011.  The head office, principal address and registered and records office of the Company are located at
206 - 1045 West 8th Avenue, Vancouver, B.C., V6H 1C3. 

On October 31, 2018, the Company completed its business acquisition of Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. (Plymouth Rock USA) and changed its name from Alexandra Capital Corp. to Plymouth Rock Technologies Inc. with new trading symbol "PRT" on November 1, 2018 (See "Business Acquisition" section of this report).  As a result of the acquisition, the Company's principal business activity through its subsidiary, Plymouth Rock USA, was changed to focus on developing technologies related to remotely detecting assault firearms and suicide bombs concealed on the person or a carry bag. The Company focuses on detection methods with and without the need for a checkpoint of the suspect who is being screened. The Company's planned products encompass the very latest radar, imaging and Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) technologies for quickly detecting, locating and identifying the presence of threats and for other applications such as, search and rescue missions for law enforcement, environmental and humanitarian missions for global government agencies, and inspection of infrastructure for structural damage.

On March 10, 2016, the Company's common shares commenced trading on the CSE under the symbol "AXC". On November 1, 2018, upon the change in name, the Company started trading under the new trading symbol "PRT".  On January 8, 2019, the Company's common shares commenced trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in Germany under the Symbol: 4XA, WKN# - A2N8RH. Effective August 27, 2019, the Company's common shares commenced trading on the OTC Markets Group ("OTCQB") under the symbol: PLRTF.

On January 28, 2021, the Company supplied its first Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to the United Nations (UN) as part of UNSOM (United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia) under the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) for a tree-reseeding mission (See DEVELOPING TECHNOLOGIES).

As at February 3, 2021, the Company has reached a milestone in its progress of MediMod, the latest addition to its PRT X1 and XV UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) payload systems. MediMod is an active insulated refrigerated storage module that will have multiple medical uses and advantages, including assisting with the immediate need for rapid deployment of COVID-19 vaccine transportation to remote sites or between medical facilities as part of multiple national campaigns for mass vaccination (See DEVELOPING TECHNOLOGIES).


As at February 9, 2021, the Company's CODA-1(Cognitive Object Detection Apparatus) system has undergone further successful testing for detection of various concealed weaponry on a person at its laboratories. CODA is a uniquely designed, ultra-compact radar device that can be utilized for a variety of applications across many industries, covering everything from traditional radar for drone or aircraft detection, to low-power stand-off weapon detection.

On February 10, 2021 during the UN mission in Somalia a PRT drone broke the existing beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drone delivery record, and also believed to have set an additional new record for complete 'round trip' autonomous delivery capability. UN observers and aviation officials that monitor scheduled UN flights have agreed to supply the recorded flight data and witness statements required for the official recognition by adjudicators of Guinness World Records.

As at February 24, 2021, the Company's XV-S drone has passed more than 20 hours of flight testing. The XV-S is a fixed-wing UAS platform capable of vertical take-off and landing, removing the requirement for large runways or launch catapult and recovery nets, which are usually required by most fixed-wing drones. The XV-S can launch fully autonomously from an area as small as 100 square feet and operate for up to 4 hours.

On March 26, 2021, the Company incorporated a new subsidiary in United Kingdom, Plymouth Rock Technologies UK Limited ("PRT UK"). The purpose of PRT UK will be to augment the Company's existing research and development of the X-1 and X-V for the US and EMEA markets. Many of the UK consultants of the company have since become direct employees as the company expands its operations globally.

Effective February 1, 2021, Dr. Gianluca De Novi has been appointed to VP of Engineering.

The Company has applied for, and has been granted, a management cease trade order (the "MCTO") by the British Columbia Securities Commission.

Business Acquisition

On June 4, 2021, the Company signed a definitive acquisition agreement outlining the terms and conditions with respect to an acquisition of Tetra Drones Ltd. ("Tetra Drones" or "Tetra"), an arm's length, privately held, UK-based company a developer of custom-made, high-performance and niche Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). The acquisition of Tetra provides Plymouth with a U.K. based production and sales team with a record of success. 

The Company acquired all of the then issued and outstanding shares of Tetra Drones. Tetra Drones has issued and outstanding share capital of 100 ordinary shares held by the sole Shareholder, Mr. Ben Pickard.

Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, the Company acquired Tetra for the sum of £350,000 GBP ($579,682 CAD), payable on an installment basis as follows:

  • £35,000 ($60,021 CAD) within seven days of execution of a definitive agreement, paid on June 12, 2021.
  • £35,000 ($60,479 CAD) within 21 days of the first payment, paid on July 9, 2021.
  • £140,000 ($236,411 CAD) within 120 days of the second payment ("the third payment"), and
  • £140,000 ($222,771 CAD) within 120 days of the third payment.

As a result of the acquisition, the Company now owns all outstanding shares of Tetra and will assume Tetra's existing liabilities. The principal owner of Tetra became part of the Company's management and shall be paid a monthly salary along with bonus shares or other equity instruments at the discretion of the board. All expenses related to the transaction were paid by the Company.


The fair value of net liabilities of Tetra amounted to $77,412 as at the date of acquisition. The Company applied the optional concentration test permitted under IFRS 3 to the acquisition which resulted in the acquired assets being accounted for as an asset acquisition. As such the purchase price was allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on their fair values at the date of acquisition. 

DEVELOPING TECHNOLOGIES

The Company's core technologies include: (1) A Millimeter-wave Remote Imaging system from Airborne Drone ("MiRIAD"); (2) A compact millimeter-wave radar system for scanning shoe's ("Shoe-Scanner"); and (3) Two microwave radar systems for stand-off threat detection ("CODA") and screening in Wi-Fi enabled zones in buildings and places, such as airports, shopping malls, schools and sports venues ("Wi-Ti" - Wireless Threat Indication). In addition, the Company launched on October 15, 2019 its newest technology, the "PRT-X1", a next generation Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) drone. In early 2021 the Company launched its newest UAS drone, the PRT-XV, a fixed wing UAS platform with the added capability of verticle take-off and landing (VTOL).

MiRIAD (Millimeter-wave Remote Imaging from Airborne Drone) Updates

Increasing threat of terrorist activities, rising territorial conflicts, and geopolitical instabilities have led to the rise in the demand for threat detection systems. Also, increasing need for large-scale surveillance systems at public and commercial places is driving the demand for threat detection equipment.

The threat detection systems market is led by the public infrastructure that is further segmented into airports, railway stations, sports stadiums, shopping malls, pilgrimages, and others. The high demand for threat detection devices from airport security agencies and shopping malls, especially for explosive detectors, video surveillance systems, and biometric systems, is one of the major factors driving the growth of the threat detection systems market for the public infrastructure application.

On April 3, 2019, the Company's MiRIAD system has passed internal payload flight testing demonstrations in the Morongo and Coachella Valley, California, USA. The test allowed the Company to assess the stability and maneuverability of a UAS (Unmanned Aircraft System) with a MiRIAD system attached. With the successful payload test and lightweight antenna design, the Company's management and scientific advisors are confident that Plymouth Rock would be the first company to realize millimeter-wave imaging from commercial drones.

In Q4 2019, the Company fielded a multispectral imaging capability aboard a small Search & Rescue drone (the "PRT=X1") by combining visible, IR (infrared) and millimeter-wave imaging sensors on a single aerial vehicle. Chemical trace detection sensors are also being investigated along with sensors that measure human biometrics, which is the measurement and statistical analysis of people's unique physical and behavioral characteristics. The technology is mainly used for identification and access control, or for identifying individuals who are under surveillance.

In Q1 2021 the company updated the design of the MiRIAD sensors with digital signal processors to process the image data received from the sensors. Fully integrated units with antennas will commence testing in Q3 2021.

Another key application for the MiRIAD sensor mounted to a UAS is for critical infrastructure inspection such as railways, buildings, bridges, roads, gas and oil pipelines to name just a few.

Due to funding issues in Q3/Q4 2021 the MiRIAD sensor development was put on hold. We expect to complete the development and testing in Q3 2022.


Millimeter Wave, Shoe Scanning Technology

The Millimeter-wave Shoe Scanner allows for the rapid screening of footwear without necessitating removal of shoes. With a screening time objective of 30 PPM (Persons/Minute) the Shoe Scanner is ideal for airport terminals, prison/correctional facilities, public events, theft prevention and other high throughput, screening applications.

On March 12, 2019, Manchester Metropolitan University assigned the Millimeter-wave, Shoe Scanning technology IP to the Company for the consideration of $30,000. The Millimeter-wave Shoe Scanner is a floor-mounted 3D imaging system that uses harmless millimeter-wave imaging techniques to inspect footwear. The scanner is then able to identify if the footwear has been altered or is being used to transport concealed items, such as weaponry, substances, compounds, or electronic items. As of October 8, 2019, the IP and patent transfer for this technology was completed.

On October 29, 2020 the Company received a "Notice of Allowance" by the US Patent and Trademark Office of patent application No. 16/560,480 for the "Method and System for Determining Dielectric Properties of an Object". The invention uses millimeter wave ("MMW") shoe-scanning technologies for fast, contactless screening of passengers' footwear in highly secure environments such as airports, prisons, border points of entry and government buildings

On September 7, 2020 the company submitted a BAA (Broad Agency Announcement) to the Transport Security Administration (TSA) Innovation Task Force (ITF) for its MMW shoe-scanning technology to be used in airports for safe, stand-off detection of threats.

On November 19, 2020, the SS1 Shoe-Scanner was accepted into the Transport Security Administration (TSA) Innovation Task Force (ITF) evaluation process. A unit was scheduled to be delivered to TSA in Q3 2021 for testing at TSA Laboratories. This timeline has slipped into Q4 2021 due to critical semiconductor components not being readily available from US distributors and resellers.

In December of 2020 the company started a low-rate-initial-production (LRIP) of the SS1 shoe scanners. One unit for the TSA evaluation (airport security) and 4 other units for demonstrations to various interested customers for applications such as theft prevention, prisons and correctional institutes for smuggling of contraband and federal facility security.

Wi-Ti Updates

The past three years have seen significant advances in the monitoring of Wi-Fi radio wave analysis. This includes Wi-Fi used to track and trace the movements of people in real time through walls. Similar techniques have used Wi-Fi radio waves to detect subtle changes in breathing and heart rates. The Plymouth Rock Wi-Ti technology advances that analysis to concealed threat detection. Unlike other emerging screening technologies Wi-Ti can be used in airport concourse areas, stadiums and open spaces at stand-off distances. Our unique radar imaging and signal processing technology allows for non-intrusive screening of crowds in real time.

In Q4 2020 the company made numerous laboratory tests to prove the Wi-Ti concept and started the process of writing a detailed invention report to file an application for patent.

On December 8, 2020 the company prepared a trademark application for the mark Wi-Ti class 009 - System for detecting threats, such as concealed weaponry, within a Wi-Fi enabled environment and electronic filing of the same with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office).

On December 15, 2020 the company filed the Trademark Application for Wi-Ti in Class 009.


PRT-X1 Updates

On October 15, 2019, the Company launched its new product under development, the PRT-X1 which is a search and rescue grade Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) drone designed with the direct input of law enforcement, intelligence agencies, military, and rescue services to address the global requirement for a multi-role, state-of-the-art aerial platform. The prototype PRT-X1 has been unveiled live at the 2019 International Security Conference (ISC), at the Javits Center in New York City on November 20-21, 2019.

On August 19, 2020 the company signed a Re-seller and Purchase Agreement with Trendset Communication Group ("TCG") of 40498 Mound Rd., Sterling Heights, MI 48310 for their PRT X1 UAS drones. Trendset Communications Group (TCG) is an integrator of RF and related systems with a dedicated support staff to plan, deploy, support by way of maintenance services, systems in the field.

As of the end of November 2020, the PRT-X1 is starting its low rate demonstration phase. Multiple X1 systems are being manufactured for various applications and targeted customers.

As at the year ended November 30, 2021, PRT-X1 demonstration units have been sold to customers for various applications such as oil and natural gas pipeline inspection/security and agriculture/environmental missions.

PRT-XV Updates

The PRT XV is a fixed-wing UAS platform with the added capability of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL).

This unique capability allows operators to extend their operational range while removing the requirement for a large runway - the XV can launch from an area as small as 8 square meters fully autonomously and operate for up to 7 hours.

As at the year ended  November 30, 2021, the PRT-XV has been prototyped and demonstrated to interested customers.

It has begun its low rate demonstration phase that had continued into Q4 of fiscal year 2021.

Year ended November 30, 2021 and 2020

During the year ended November 30, 2021, the Company had a comprehensive loss of $4,944,231 compared to a comprehensive loss of $2,904,690 for the year ended November 30, 2020. The increase in comprehensive losses were primarily driven by the following:

  • Sales during the year ended November 30, 2021 amounted to $184,396 (November 30, 2020 - $70,931) with gross profit of $81,287 (November 30, 2020 - $39,615) resulting in a gross margin of 44%
    (November 30, 2020 - 56%). The Company's sales for the year include waveguide components and drone parts. The increase in gross profit resulted from the new sales introduced by the Tetra Drones Acquisition.
  • Accounting and audit fees of $80,162 (November 30, 2020 - $67,282). This includes an accrual for the Company's audit fees. Additionally, part of this amount consisted of accounting fees paid to a Company controlled by the Former CFO (See Transactions with Related Parties). The amount increased in the current year due to the additional complexities brought about by the set-up of a new company and the acquisition of a new subsidiary.

  • Amortization in the amount of $143,783 (November 30, 2020 - $41,201) pertains to amortization of customer relationships acquired from Tetra Drones, equipment and right-of-use asset due to the recognition of the Company's leased premises in accordance with IFRS 16. No amortization was charged on Demo equipment as they were still in the process of being built as of November 30, 2021.
  • Business development expenses of $709,010 (November 30, 2020 - $1,081,478) decreased due to timing of various business development initiatives. In the current year, the main business development expenditures were on native ad campaigns. During the year in 2020, the expenditures were on search engine optimization, native ad campaigns, and various investor presentations. Furthermore, the new marketing contracts were signed during the year and the expenditures are expected to increase over the next quarter.
  • Consulting fees of $456,296 (November 30, 2020 - $275,182) increased during the year due to an agreement with a Director of the Company to perform consulting services. The director was compensated in common shares. (See Transactions with Related Parties)
  • Consulting fees related to research and development of $930,269 (November 30, 2020 - 386,044) increased due to additional expenditures on enhancement of the Company's current technologies which includes MIRIAD, CODA, Tetra, Shoe-Scanner, X-1 and XV. The amounts consist of payments made for consultants (see PRT-X1 Updates).
  • General office expenses of $205,710 (November 30, 2020 - $111,394) increased due to business expansion and an increase in activities to support the company's developments projects.
  • Legal and professional fees of $191,686 (November 30, 2020 - $74,528) increased due to legal fees incurred in the acquisition of Tetra Drones, the set-up of a new subsidiary in the UK and more security issuances during the year as compared to that of 2020 and other legal consultations during the year.
  • Management fees of $118,000 (November 30, 2020 - $110,125) were higher due to increased fees of related parties resulting from the increase in scope of services. (See Transactions with Related Parties)
  • Rent of $42,822 (November 30, 2020 - $35,325) is slightly high due to acquisition of Tetra Drones in current year.
  • Stock-based compensation of $1,144,342 (November 30, 2020 - $479,107) refers to the portion of the value of the stock options granted by the Company which are expensed during the year (See Capital Stock). During the year ended November 30, 2021 Company granted 1,700,000 options compared to previous year of Nil. 425,000 stock options were exercised (2020 - Nil). Part of this expense is the value of 1,725,000 stock options held by related parties with vested amount of $410,132 for the year ended November 30, 2021 (2020 - 1,650,000 options held, vested value of $271,993). (See Transactions with Related Parties)
  • Transfer agent and filing fees of $82,825 (November 30, 2020 - $77,919) was greater due to more issuance of shares and closing of a Private Placement during the year.
  • Wages, salaries and benefits of $817,858 (November 30, 2020 - $292,218) is higher because last year Company received Government assistance during the COVID crises for wages and salaries which was offset against wages and salaries expense in previous year.  This was aggravated by the expansion of manpower in the overseas subsidiaries.
  • Foreign currency translation gain of $30,603 (November 30, 2020 - $19,546) recognized in other comprehensive income is the result of translating assets, liabilities and equity of the Company's US and UK entities to Canadian dollars for consolidated financial reporting purposes. This was a reversal of the loss in prior year primarily due to fluctuations of currency.

The higher net loss in 2021 compared with 2020 was primarily due the higher stock-based compensation and business development expenditures in 2021 as well as increase in wages, salaries and benefits. Furthermore, the reduced 2020 losses relate in part to decreased operations and management decreasing compensation costs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as some relief from government incentives. The net loss increased in the quarters ended 2021 compared with the 2020 quarters primarily due to increase in research and development as well as the ramp up of operations in 2021 following the easing of restrictions brought about by the pandemic.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's approach to managing its liquidity is to ensure that it has sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they come due and have sufficient working capital to fund operations for the ensuing fiscal year. Financing of operations has been achieved solely by equity financing. The Company anticipates that it will require significant funds from either equity or debt financing for the development of its technologies and to support general administrative expenses.


At  year ended  November 30, 2021, the Company had $632,538 in current assets (November 30, 2020 - $79,919) and $706,666 in current liabilities (November 30, 2020 - $322,738) for a working capital deficiency of $74,128 compared to a working capital deficiency of $242,819 as at November 30, 2020. The decrease in the working deficit to current working capital is primarily due to a significantly higher cash balance due to equity issuances.

At  year ended  November 30, 2021, the Company had a share capital balance of $11,834,582 (November 30, 2020 - $7,376,763) and an accumulated deficit of $13,867,962 (November 30, 2020 - $8,893,128).  The increase share capital is primarily due to private placements, warrant exercises, and option exercises that have occurred during the year. 

Financing of operations has been achieved solely by equity financing. As the Company will not generate sufficient funds from operations for the foreseeable future, the Company is primarily reliant upon the sale of equity securities in order to fund future operations. Since inception, the Company has funded limited operations through the issuance of equity securities on a private placement basis.  The Company's ability to raise funds through the issuance of equity will depend on economic, market and commodity prices at the time of financing. 
The Company expects to generate similar losses quarter over quarter for the next fiscal year in relation to the Company's development, administration and promotion of its technologies.  As of report date, management anticipates that the funds raised to date will be sufficient to sustain operations and the development of the Companies technologies for the next fiscal year.

Detailed discussions related to the Company's cash flows during the year ended November 30, 2021

Cash balances increased by a total of $350,333 during the year ended November 30, 2021
(November 30, 2020 - decreased by $558,406).  This is mainly due to the issuance of 8,930,000 shares through private placement and shares issued in relation to 6,129,572 warrants exercised and 425,000 options exercised for aggregate net proceeds of $4,417,047.

During the year ended November 30, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $3,441,102 compared to cash used in operating activities of $2,114,515 during the year ended November 30, 2020. The increase in cash used was primarily due to payments for the research and development, wages & salaries, consulting and legal fees.   

Cash used in investing activities during the year ended November 30, 2021 was $573,343 (November 30, 2020 - $61,094). The cash used in investing activities were primarily for equipment purchases for the development of demo equipment and the cash payment for the acquisition of Tetra Drones completed during the current year.

Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended November 30, 2021 was $4,326,442 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $1,587,091 during the year ended November 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to the private placement completed during the year in addition to option and warrant exercises. This was partially offset by lease payments and some loan payments during the year.

The effect of foreign exchange rates on cash during the year ended November 30, 2021 amounted to $38,336 (November 30, 2020 -$30,112).

PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS

The Company has no proposed transactions for the year ended November 30, 2021.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

To the best of Management's knowledge, there are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

All significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates are fully disclosed in Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2021 that are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company's financial assets consist of cash, and due from related parties. The estimated fair values of cash, subscription receivable, and due from related parties approximate their respective carrying values due to the short period to maturity. 

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values.  The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

a. Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

b. Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

c. Level 3 - inputs that are not based on observable market data.

For the years ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, the fair value of the cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and due to and from related parties approximate the book value due to the short term nature.


As at November 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company's financial instruments are classified as follows:

As at November 30, 2021   Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total

The Company is exposed to a variety of financial instrument related risks.  The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes, inclusive of counterparty limits, controlling and reporting structures.  The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations when they become due.  The Company ensures, as far as reasonably possible, it will have sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations and the Company's holdings of cash.  The Company believes that these sources will be sufficient to cover the likely short-term cash requirements.  The Company's cash is currently invested in business accounts which is available on demand by the Company for its operations.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company has no significant interest rate risk due to the short-term nature of its interest generating assets.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of a loss in a counterparty to a financial instrument when it fails to meet its contractual obligations.  The Company's exposure to credit risk is limited to its cash. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by holding its cash in deposits with high credit quality Canadian financial institutions.


Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash, due from related parties and accounts payable and accrued liabilities that are denominated in US dollars. 10% fluctuations in the US dollar against the Canadian dollar have affected comprehensive loss for the year by approximately $1,200
(November 30, 2020 - $7,085).

The Company has only started generating revenues in the prior year.  The Company was incorporated on October 17, 2011 and has yet to generate a profit from its activities.  The Company is subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including the risk that it will not achieve its growth objective.  The Company anticipates that it may take several years to achieve positive cash flow from operations.

Substantial Capital Requirements and Liquidity

Substantial additional funds for the establishment of the Company's current and planned operations will be required.  No assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise the additional funding that may be required for such activities, should such funding not be fully generated from operations. Revenues, taxes, transportation costs, capital expenditures, operating expenses and development costs are all factors which will have an impact on the amount of additional capital that may be required.  To meet such funding requirements, the Company may be required to undertake additional equity financing, which would be dilutive to shareholders.  Debt financing, if available, may also involve restrictions on financing and operating activities.  There is no assurance that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.  If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations or anticipated expansion and pursue only those development plans that can be funded through cash flows generated from its existing operations.

Regulatory Requirements

The current or future operations of the Company require permits from various governmental authorities, and such operations are and will be governed by laws and regulations governing development, production, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection, site safety and other matters. There can be no assurance that all permits which the Company may require for the facilities and conduct of operations will be obtainable on reasonable terms or that such laws and regulation would not have an adverse effect on any development project which the Company might undertake.

Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions.  Parties engaged in operations may be required to compensate those suffering losses or damages and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed upon them for violation of applicable laws or regulations. Amendments to current laws, regulation and permits governing operations and activities of companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures or development costs or require abandonment or delays in the development of new projects.

Financing Risks and Dilution to Shareholders

The Company will have limited financial resources, no operations and hardly have revenues. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be available on favorable terms or at all.  It is likely such additional capital will be raised through the issuance of additional equity, which will result in dilution to the Company's shareholders.


Competition

There is competition within the security screening and threat detection market. The Company will compete with other companies, many of which have greater financial, technical and other resources than the Company, as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and other personnel.

Intellectual Property

The Company has developed security screening technologies that are adequate to counter various threats. The Company may be unable to prevent competitors from independently developing or selling products similar to or duplicate of the Company, and there can be no assurance that the resources invested by the Company to protect the Intellectual Property will be sufficient. The Company may be unable to secure or retain ownership or rights. In addition, the Company may be the target of aggressive and opportunistic enforcement of patents by third parties, including non-practicing entities. Regardless of the merit of such claims, responding to infringement claims can be expensive and time-consuming. If the Company is found to infringe any third-party rights, it could be required to pay substantial damages, or it could be enjoined from offering some of products and services. Also, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain or renew from third parties the licenses it needs in the future, and there is no assurance that such licenses can be obtained on reasonable terms.

Reliance on Management and Dependence on Key Personnel

The success of the Company will be largely dependent upon on the performance of the directors and officers and the ability to attract and retain key personnel.  The loss of the services of these persons may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and prospects.  The Company will compete with numerous other companies for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and contractors. There is no assurance that the Company can maintain the service of its directors and officers, or other qualified personnel required to operate its business.  Failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company and its prospects.

Governmental Regulations and Processing Licenses and Permits

The activities of the Company are subject to various government approvals, various laws governing prospecting, development, land resumptions, production taxes, labor standards and occupational health, toxic substances and other matters.  Although the Company believes that its activities are currently carried out in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations, no assurance can be given that new rules and regulations will not be enacted or that existing rules and regulations will not be applied in a manner, which could limit or curtail production or development. Amendments to current laws and regulations governing operations and activities, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the business, operations and financial performance of the Company. Further, the licenses and permits issued in respect of its projects may be subject to conditions that, if not satisfied, may lead to the revocation of such licenses.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain of the directors and officers of the Company will be engaged in, and will continue to engage in, other business activities on their own behalf and on behalf of other companies and, as a result of these and other activities, such directors and officers of the Company may become subject to conflicts of interest. The British Columbia Business Corporations Act ("BCBCA") provides that in the event that a director has a material interest in a contract or proposed contract or agreement that is material to the issuer, the director must disclose his interest in such contract or agreement and refrain from voting on any matter in respect of such contract or agreement, subject to and in accordance with the BCBCA.  To the extent that conflicts of interest arise, such conflicts will be resolved in accordance with the provisions of the BCBCA.


Litigation

The Company and/or its directors may be subject to a variety of civil or other legal proceedings, with or without merit.

Public Health Crisis

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global pandemic known as COVID-19. The expected impacts on global commerce are expected to be far reaching. This will impact demand for the Company's products and services and its ability to continue developing and testing their technologies in the near term and will impact the Company's supply chains. It may also impact expected credit losses on the Company's receivables. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time and it is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company and its subsidiary, in future periods. The management is closely evaluating the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business.

As certain of the Company's officers have other outside business activities and, thus, may not be in a position to devote all of their professional time to the Company, the Company's operations may be sporadic, which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This MD&A may include certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable securities legislation. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this MD&A that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as future business strategies competitive strengths, goals, expansion and growth of the Company's businesses, operations, plans and other such matters are forward-looking statements. When used in this MD&A, the words "estimate", "plan", "anticipate", "expect", ''intend'', "believe" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which 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. Such factors include, among others, risks that actual results of current exploration activities will differ, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined, unavailability of financing, fluctuations in precious and/or base metals prices and other factors, as outlined in the Company's preliminary long form prospectus filed on SEDAR. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.


CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company considers its capital structure to include net residual equity of all assets, less liabilities. The Company's objectives when managing capital are to (i) maintain financial flexibility in order to preserve its ability to meet financial obligations and continue as a going concern; (ii) maintain a capital structure that allows the Company to pursue the development of its projects and products; and (iii) optimize the use of its capital to provide an appropriate investment return to its shareholders commensurate with risk.

The Company's financial strategy is formulated and adapted according to market conditions in order to maintain a flexible capital structure that is consistent with its objectives and the risk characteristics of its underlying assets. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares or acquire or dispose of assets.

DIRECTORS

Certain directors of the Company are also directors, officers and/or shareholders of other companies that may be engaged in the similar business of developing technologies. Such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. The directors of the Company are required to act in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and to disclose any interest they may have in any project opportunity of the Company. If a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the board of directors, any director in a conflict will disclose his/her interest and abstain from voting in the matter(s). In determining whether or not the Company will participate in any project or opportunity, the directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and its financial position at the time.

The Company appointed Douglas Smith to its Board of Directors on April 29, 2020 and named him as Chairman on May 13, 2020.

The Company appointed Dr. Khalid M. Al-Ali to its Board of Directors on July 9, 2020.

On July 31, 2020, George Stubos resigned as a Director of the Company. The Company then appointed Thomas Nash to the Board of Directors on the same date.

Dana Wheeler, President, CEO and Director

Susan Gardner, CFO

Vivian Katsuris, Corporate Secretary

OUTLOOK

The Company's objective is to maximize the value of the Company for our shareholders, and our strategy to obtain this result is to focus on project evaluations and project generation. To proceed with this strategy, additional financings may be required during the current fiscal year.

The company is currently at the inflection point of moving from design/development of prototypes to Low-Rate-Initial-Production (LRIP). Commercializing the products is a major step in the companies' strategic growth. With the pandemic being on the downturn, this will allow the company to spend appreciably more of its resources to meet with customers directly and start to attend trade shows in person. The marketing spend will also increase to accommodate this growth and sales strategy.

The company believes that an increase in revenue will occur in the next 6-12 months due to the forecasted sales pipeline and successful demonstration of the various products.
