2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

(a) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in US dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company; the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Quest Water Solutions, Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada (“Quest Nevada”); AQUAtap Global, Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming; and Quest Nevada’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Quest Water Solutions Inc., a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

The prior period presentation was updated to conform to current period presentation. There was no effect on net loss.

 

(b) Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods shown.

 

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

 

(c) Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company’s functional currency is US dollars. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the currency of measurement at the exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. Monetary balance sheet items expressed in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting exchange gains and losses are recognized in income.

 

The Company’s integrated foreign subsidiaries are financially or operationally dependent on the Company. The Company uses the temporal method to translate the accounts of its integrated operations into US dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the period, except for amortization, which is translated on the same basis as the related asset. The resulting exchange gains or losses are recognized in income.

 

(d) Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.

 

(e) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
