2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation and going concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company. The consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and, accordingly, will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due.

These consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

These financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on March 17, 2026.

Basis of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities wholly owned, or effectively controlled by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025:

​

​

​

The entities listed above are wholly owned or effectively controlled by the Company and have been formed or acquired to support the intended operations of the Company and all intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

ASU 2023-09 In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this ASU resulted in additional disclosures in Footnote 21.

​

Use of estimates and significant judgments

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities, accompanying disclosures and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. These estimates and judgments are subject to change based on experience and new information which could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities affecting future periods. Estimates and judgments are assessed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.

Examples of key estimates in these consolidated financial statements include credit losses, inventory valuation adjustments that contemplate the market value of, and demand for inventory, estimated useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, valuation allowance on deferred income tax assets, determining the fair value of financial instruments, fair value of stock-based compensation, estimated variable consideration on contracts with customers, estimated redemption rates on loyalty sales programs, estimated paid time off redemption rates, sales return estimates, the fair value of the convertible notes and equity component and the classification, incremental borrowing rates, uncertain tax positions, and lease terms applicable to lease contracts.

Financial statement areas that require significant judgments are as follows:

Assets held for sale and discontinued operations - The Company classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as held for sale if their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale rather than through continuing use. Such non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and their fair value less cost to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the sale, excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

The criteria for held for sale classification is regarded as met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset or the disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition. Actions required to complete the sale should indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the sale will be made or that the sale will be withdrawn. Management must be committed to the sale expected within one year from the date of the classification.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that either has been abandoned, disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and: (i) disposal group is a component of an entity (or group of components); (ii) component of an entity (or group of components) meets the held for sale criteria, is disposed of by sale, or is disposed of other than by sale; (iii) component of an entity (or group of components) represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. A component of the Company comprises an operation and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the Company. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company completed various divestitures, further described in Note 3. Management considered the quantitative results of the divested entities as well as qualitative strategic considerations to judge whether the divestitures constitute a discontinued operation. Management does not believe these divestitures represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results, and as such, none of these divestitures are considered a discontinued operation.

Stock-based compensation - Valuation of stock-based compensation and warrants requires management to make estimates regarding the inputs for option pricing models, such as the expected life of the option, the volatility of the Company’s stock price, the vesting period of the option and the risk-free interest rate are used. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The estimates are considered for each new grant of stock options or warrants.

Uncertain tax positions - The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than- not recognition threshold, the Company would recognize the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

Asset impairment – Asset impairment tests require the allocation of assets to asset groups, where appropriate, which requires significant judgment and interpretation with respect to the integration between the assets and shared resources. Asset impairment tests require the determination of whether there is an indication of impairment. The assessment of whether an indication of impairment exists is performed at the end of each reporting period and requires the application of judgment, historical experience, and external and internal sources of information.

Leases – The Company applies judgment in determining whether a contract contains a lease and if a lease is classified as an operating lease or a finance lease. The Company determines the lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease, which may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

The Company has several lease contracts that include extension and termination options. The Company applies judgment in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain whether or not to exercise the option to renew or terminate the lease. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise either the renewal or termination. After the commencement date, the Company reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise or not to exercise the option to renew or to terminate (e.g., construction of significant leasehold improvements or significant customization to the leased asset).

The Company also applies judgment in allocating the consideration in a contract between lease and non-lease components. It considers whether the Company can benefit from the right-of-use asset either on its own or together with other resources and whether the asset is highly dependent on or highly interrelated with another right-of-use asset.

Foreign currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in the United States dollar (“USD”), which is the Company’s reporting currency. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries, as determined by management, is the United States (“US”) dollar.

Net loss per share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing reported net loss by the weighted average number of subordinate voting shares outstanding for the reported period. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock of the Company during the reporting period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the sum of the weighted average number of subordinate voting shares and the number of potential dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of vested share options and the incremental shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of stock options, warrants, and convertible debt.

In computing diluted earnings per share, common share equivalents are not considered in periods in which a net loss is reported, as the inclusion of the common share equivalents would be anti-dilutive. Since the Company is in a net loss for all periods presented in these financial statements, there is no difference between the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share for the periods presented.

The anti-dilutive shares outstanding for years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

​

​

Segment Information

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting, establishes disclosure requirements relating to operating segments in annual and interim financial statements. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources to the segment and assess its performance. The Company operates in one business segment, namely as the Cannabis segment that cultivates, processes and distributes medical and adult-use cannabis products in a variety of formats, as well as related accessories. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”).

Cash

Cash is comprised of cash. The Company has no cash equivalents for the years presented.

Business combinations and goodwill

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including contingent assets and liabilities, at their respective fair values on the date of acquisition. Any excess of the purchase consideration over the net fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. The costs of business acquisitions, including fees for accounting, legal, professional consulting and valuation specialists, are expensed as incurred within transaction related expenses. Purchase price allocations may be preliminary and, during the measurement period not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, changes in assumptions and estimates that result in adjustments to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded in the period the adjustments are determined.

The estimated fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities are determined primarily using a discounted cash flow approach, with estimated cash flows discounted at a rate that the Company believes a market participant would determine to be commensurate with the inherent risks associated with the asset and related estimated cash flow streams.

Fair value measurements

The carrying value of the Company’s marketable securities, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature, and the carrying value of long-term debt, and convertible debt approximates fair value as they bear a market rate of interest.

​

Restricted cash consists of cash balances that are legally or contractually restricted as to withdrawal or use. The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the deposits.

​

The carrying value of the Company’s derivative liabilities utilize Level 2 inputs given the inputs are indirectly observable but not quoted for identical contracts.

​

The carrying value of the Company’s warrants held, contingent consideration, and investments utilize Level 3 inputs given there is no market activity for the asset.

​

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In estimating the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Company takes into account the characteristics of the asset or liability if market participants would take those characteristics into account when pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Inventory and cost of sales

Inventory is comprised of cannabis work-in-process, cannabis finished goods and other inventory. Work-in-process inventory includes cannabis plants, bulk harvested material, and various bulk oils and extracts. Finished goods include packaged flower and extracts. Other inventory includes product packaging, hemp derived CBD, apparel, and paraphernalia.

Inventory cost includes pre-harvest, post-harvest and shipment and fulfillment, as well as related accessories. Pre-harvest costs include labor and direct materials to grow cannabis, which includes water, electricity, nutrients, integrated pest management, growing supplies and allocated overhead. Post-harvest costs include costs associated with drying, trimming, blending, extraction, purification, quality testing and allocated overhead. Shipment and fulfillment costs include the costs of packaging, labelling, courier services and allocated overhead.

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined using weighted average cost. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. At the end of each reporting period, the Company performs an assessment of inventory and record write-downs for excess and obsolete inventories based on the Company’s estimated forecast of product demand, production requirements, market conditions, regulatory environment, and spoilage. Actual inventory losses may differ from management’s estimates and such differences could be material to the Company’s balance sheets, statements of net loss and comprehensive loss and statements of cash flows.

Cost of sales represents costs directly related to manufacturing and distribution of the Company’s products. Primary costs include raw materials, packaging, direct labor, overhead, shipping and handling and the depreciation of manufacturing equipment and production facilities. Manufacturing overhead and related expenses include salaries, wages, employee benefits, utilities, maintenance and property taxes. Cost of sales also includes inventory valuation adjustments. The Company recognizes the cost of sales as the associated revenues are recognized.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost net of accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful life of buildings and improvements ranges from five to thirty-nine years, the estimated useful life of property and equipment, other than buildings, ranges from three to ten years. Land is not depreciated. Leasehold improvements, included in buildings and improvements, are depreciated over the lesser of the asset’s estimated useful life or the remaining lease term. The estimated useful life of right of use assets relating to operating and finance leases ranges from one to twenty years.

When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any related gain or loss is recognized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred. Significant expenditures, which extend the useful lives of assets or increase productivity, are capitalized. When significant parts of an item of property and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items or components of property and equipment.

Construction-in-process includes construction progress payments, deposits, engineering costs, interest expense on long-term construction projects and other costs directly related to the construction of the facilities. Expenditures are capitalized during the construction period and construction in progress is transferred to the relevant class of property and equipment when the assets are available for use, at which point the depreciation of the asset commences.

The estimated useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Capitalization of interest

Interest incurred relating to the construction or expansion of facilities is capitalized to the construction in progress. The Company ceases the capitalization of interest when construction activities are substantially completed and the facility is available for commercial use.

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company capitalized $2,072,527 and $1,387,750, respectively, of interest expense to construction in progress.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets include intangible assets acquired as part of business combinations, asset acquisitions and other business transactions. The Company records intangible assets at cost, net of accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are measured at fair value on the acquisition date.

Amortization of definite life intangible assets is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

​

​

When there is no foreseeable limit on the period of time over which an intangible asset is expected to contribute to the cash flows of the Company, an intangible asset is determined to have an indefinite life. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortized but tested for impairment annually or more frequently when indicators of impairment exist. If the carrying value of an individual indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, such individual indefinite-life intangible asset is impaired by the amount of the excess.

The estimated useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment, definite life intangible assets, and other long-lived assets for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. In order to determine if assets have been impaired, assets are grouped and tested at the lowest level for which identifiable independent cash flows are available (“asset group”). A potential impairment loss is assessed when the sum of projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset group. The measurement of the impairment loss to be recognized is based on the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the asset group. Fair value can be determined using a market approach, income approach or cost approach. The reversal of impairment losses is prohibited.

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

The Company aggregates its financial assets into classes at the time of initial recognition based on the Company's business model and the contractual terms of the cash flows. Non-derivative financial assets are classified and measured as “financial assets at fair value”, as either fair value through profit or loss (“FVPL”), or “financial assets at amortized cost”, as appropriate.

All financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not at FVPL, directly attributable transaction costs on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining their classification.

Subsequent measurement  - Financial assets at amortized cost

After initial recognition, financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at the end of each reporting period at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate (“EIR”) method. Amortized cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and any fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. In these consolidated financial statements, cash, trade and other receivables, indemnification receivables, and loans receivable are classified in this category.

Subsequent measurement  - Financial assets at FVPL

Financial assets measured at FVPL include financial assets such as the Company's equity investments in other entities, and any derivative financial instrument that is not designated as a hedging instrument in a hedge relationship. Financial assets measured at FVPL are carried at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet with changes in fair value recognized in a separate caption in the consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or the Company no longer retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets classified subsequently as amortized cost are subject to impairment based on the expected credit losses (“ECLs”). The Company's financial assets subject to impairment are cash, accounts receivable and notes receivable.

Accounts receivable and notes receivable are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost, less any provisions for impairment. Impairment provisions are estimated using the ECL impairment model where any expected future credit losses are provided for, irrespective of whether a loss event has occurred at the reporting date. Estimates of expected credit losses consider the Company's collection history by country and customer, deterioration of collection rates during the average credit period, as well as observable changes in and forecasts of future economic conditions that affect default risk. The Company utilizes a provision matrix to estimate lifetime ECL's for accounts receivable, supplemented by specific allowance based on customer-specific data. Changes in the allowance are recognized as bad debt expense in the consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. When the Company determines that no recovery of the amount owed is possible, the amount is deemed irrecoverable, and the financial asset is written off.

Impairment of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets

Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. As part of the impairment evaluation, the Company may elect to perform an assessment of qualitative factors. If this qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset or the reporting unit (for goodwill) is less than its carrying value, a quantitative impairment test to compare the fair value to the carrying value is performed. An impairment charge is recorded if the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and right-of-use liabilities (current and non-current) in the balance sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in property and equipment, net and ROU liabilities (current and non-current) in the balance sheets.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are classified as a finance lease or an

operating lease. A finance lease is a lease in which 1) ownership of the property transfers to the lessee by the end of the lease term; 2) the lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise; 3) the lease is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset; 4) The present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee that is not already included in the lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value; or 5) the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. The Company classifies a lease as an operating lease when it does not meet any one of these criteria.

ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable. The ROU assets also include any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

For finance leases, lease expenses are the sum of interest on the lease obligations and amortization of the ROU assets, resulting in a front-loaded expense pattern. ROU assets are amortized based on the lesser of the lease term and the useful life of the leased asset according to the property and equipment accounting policy. If ownership of the ROU assets transfers to the Company at the end of the lease term or if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, amortization is calculated using the estimated useful life of the leased asset, according to the property and equipment accounting policy. For operating leases, the lease expenses are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and recorded to general and administrative expenses in the statements of net loss and comprehensive loss.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient, for each class of underlying asset, except real estate leases, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components of the lessee’s contract and account for both components as a single lease component.

The Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Short-term leases include real estate and vehicles and are not significant in comparison to the Company’s overall lease portfolio. The Company continues to recognize the lease payments associated with these leases as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Convertible debt

The Company first analyzes convertible debt with a conversion feature in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470-20”), to determine whether the fair value option should be applied. ASC 470-20 requires the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, including partial cash settlement, to be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. The initial proceeds from the sale of convertible debt are allocated between a liability component and an equity component in a manner that reflects interest expense at the rate of similar nonconvertible debt that could have been issued at such time. The equity component represents the excess initial proceeds received over the fair value of the liability component of the notes as of the date of issuance. The resulting debt discount is amortized over the period during which the convertible debt are expected to be outstanding as additional non-cash interest expenses.

If the Company does not elect the fair value option, any conversion feature is then evaluated in accordance with ASC 815 to determine if the conversion option is required to be bifurcated. ASC 815 does not require a conversion option to be bifurcated if the conversion option is indexed to the Company’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position.

Upon repurchase of convertible debt instruments, ASC 470-20 requires the issuer to allocate total settlement consideration, inclusive of transaction costs, amongst the liability and equity components of the instrument based on the fair value of the liability component immediately prior to repurchase. The difference between the settlement consideration allocated to the liability component and the net carrying value of the liability component, including unamortized debt issuance costs, is

recognized as gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt in the statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. The remaining settlement consideration allocated to the equity component is recognized as a reduction of additional paid-in capital in the balance sheets.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company issued convertible debt (Note 14). It was determined that the debt should be accounted for as a liability in its entirety.

Warrants held and Investments

The Company accounts for warrants held and investments under ASC 321, Investments – Equity Securities (“ASC 321”). The scope of ASC 321 includes investments in equity securities and other ownership interests in an entity, including investments in partnerships, unincorporated joint ventures and limited liability companies. Under ASC 321 an equity security is any security representing an ownership interest in an entity (e.g., common, preferred, other capital stock) or the right to acquire (e.g., warrants, rights, forward purchase contracts, call options) or dispose of (e.g., put options, forward sale contracts) an ownership interest in an entity at fixed or determinable prices.

ASC 321 calls for equity interests to be carried at fair value with changes in value recorded in earnings. The Company uses the BlackScholes valuation model to arrive at a fair value of the warrants held (Note 19), which is remeasured at each period end with changes in fair value recorded in other income.

ASC 321 provides a measurement alternative for equity securities without readily determinable fair values. As such the Company’s investments are recorded at cost less impairment.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s primary source of revenue is from wholesale of cannabis products to dispensary locations and direct retail sales to eligible customers at the Company-owned dispensaries. Substantially all of the Company’s retail revenue is from the direct sale of cannabis products to adult-use and medical customers.

The following table represents the Company’s disaggregated revenue by source:

​

​

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services, through performance obligations by the Company, is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in exchange for the performance obligations. More specifically, wholesale revenues are recognized upon delivery and acceptance by wholesale customers. Retail revenues are recognized at the point of sale. Service revenues are recognized when the service is performed. Discounts are recorded at the time of revenue recognition.  Returns were not material during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, but are recognized when the customer is refunded. Revenues are presented net of discounts and returns.

Sales taxes collected from customers are remitted to the appropriate taxing jurisdictions and are excluded from sales revenue as the Company considers itself a pass-through conduit for collecting and remitting sales taxes. Excise duties that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer are included in revenue. Freight revenues on all product sales, when applicable, are also recognized, on a consistent manner, at a point in time. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant and the period between when the entity transfers the promised good or service to the customer and when the customer pays for that good or service is one year or less.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is made. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

The Company considers whether there are other promises in the contracts that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated. In determining the transaction price for the sale of goods, the Company considers the effects of variable consideration and the existence of significant financing components (if any).

Accounts receivable

A receivable represents the Company’s right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment of the consideration).

The Company determines an estimate of losses on its accounts receivable based on a mix of aging and historical collections.

Stock-based compensation

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for stock options and restricted stock units (RSUs) to employees and non-employees on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on their grant date fair values. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the estimated fair value at the grant date requires judgment in determining the appropriate valuation model and assumptions, including the fair value of subordinated voting shares on the grant date, risk-free rate, volatility rate, annual dividend yield and the expected term. The volatility rate is based on historical volatilities of public companies operating in a similar industry to the Company, as well as the Company’s historical volatility. The Company estimates the fair value of RSUs to be the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the business day immediately preceding the grant date.

For stock options granted, the exercise price at the date of grant was determined by the Board of Directors with assistance from management. The Company does not estimate forfeiture rates when calculating compensation expense for stock options or RSUs. The Company records forfeitures as they occur.

Fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments issued to parties other than employees are measured on the date they are issued where there is no specific performance required by the grantee to retain those equity instruments. Stock-based payment transactions with non-employees are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Income taxes

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and the tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Management assesses the likelihood that the resulting deferred tax assets will be realized. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company recognizes uncertain income tax positions at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which judgment occurs.

New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. The amendments in this ASU require public business entities to provide enhanced disclosures about significant categories of expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation, inventory expense, and other material expense categories, disaggregated by relevant income statement line items. The guidance also requires qualitative disclosures about the nature of expense categories and the methods used to allocate expenses when applicable. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has not early adopted this ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
