REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of BetterLife Pharma Inc.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of BetterLife Pharma Inc. (the “Company") as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, and the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended January 31, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended January 31, 2026, in conformity with IFRS® Accounting 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 discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not earned any revenue, incurred negative cash flows from operations, has current liabilities exceeding its current assets and has an accumulated deficit that raise substantial doubt about its 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. This matter is also described in the “Critical Audit Matters” section of our report.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“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 audit 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 audits 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.

 

Critical Audit Matter

 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Going Concern Assessment

 

Critical Audit Matter Description

 

As described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements of the Company are 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 at January 31, 2026, the Company has not earned any revenue, incurred negative cash flows from operations, has current liabilities exceeding its current assets, has an accumulated deficit and expects to incur additional losses in the future. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, the Company has determined that these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the end of the audit report date. Management intends to continue to fund its business by way of debt and equity issuances as may be required, in order to satisfy the Company’s obligations as they come due for at least one year from the audit report date. However, the Company has not concluded that these plans alleviate the substantial doubt related to its ability to continue as a going concern. This matter is also described in the “Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern” section of our report.

 

We determined the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is a critical audit matter due to the estimation and uncertainty regarding the Company’s available capital and the risk of bias in management’s judgments and assumptions in their determination.

 

Audit Response

 

We responded to this matter by performing procedures over management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our audit work in relation to this included, but was not restricted to, the following:

 

 

·

We enquired of Company’s management and assessed Company records to assess whether there are additional factors that contribute to the uncertainties disclosed.

 

 

 

 

·

We assessed the reasonableness of 12-month cash flow forecast, evaluated management's plans for future actions and whether the outcome of these plans is likely to improve the situation and whether these plans are feasible.

 

 

 

 

·

We assessed management’s plans in the context of other audit evidence obtained during the audit to determine whether it supported or contradicted the conclusion reached by management, and

 

 

 

 

·

We assessed whether the Company’s determination that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern was adequately disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.

BETTERLIFE PHARMA INC.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern

 

BetterLife Pharma Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act on June 10, 2002 whose common shares are publicly traded on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol “BETR” and on the OTCQB under the symbol “BETRF”. The Company is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development of patented pharmaceuticals.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be unable to realize the carrying value of its assets and to meet its liabilities as they become due.

 

As at January 31, 2026, the Company has not earned any revenue and has an accumulated deficit of $120,091,493 (January 31, 2025 - $118,596,001). During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,512,918 (2025 - $3,621,884; 2024 - $2,898,510) and negative cash flows from operating activities of $615,505 (2025 - $2,021,752; 2024 - $2,472,410). As at January 31, 2026, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $6,459,206 (January 31, 2025 - $7,313,034).

 

To date, the Company has funded operations through equity offerings and debt financings. As the Company is pre-commercialization and has limited liquidity, it is exploring alternatives to address its limited liquidity, including potential merger or business combinations in addition to equity and debt financings. There can be no assurances that any of the explored alternatives would be successful.

 

The continued operations and future viability of the Company are dependent on the ability:

 

 

·

To raise cash flows from financing activities to cover operating losses and liabilities as they come due;

 

 

 

 

·

To negotiate flexible payment terms with suppliers; and

 

 

 

 

·

To cut costs to achieve its plans.

 

Management intends to continue to pursue additional financing through issuances of equity or debentures. There is no assurance that additional funding will be available on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company. These events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that casts substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and ultimately on the appropriateness of the use of accounting policies applicable to a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications of assets and liabilities which would be necessary if the Company were unable to continue its operations. Such adjustments could be material.

 

The head office and principal address of the Company is located at 1275 West 6th Avenue, #300, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6H 1A6.

 

2. Material Accounting Policies

 

 

(a)

Basis of Compliance

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

For the Years Ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on May 29, 2026. 

      

 

(b)

Basis of Measurement and Presentation

      

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value and are presented in Canadian dollars. 

      

 

(c)

Basis of Consolidation

 

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company. Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which the Company obtains control and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. The Company has consolidated the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of its subsidiaries after the elimination of inter-company transactions and balances.

 

The consolidating entities include:

Non-controlling interests

Non-controlling interests (“NCI”) represents the non-controlling shareholders’ portion of the net assets and net loss of MedMelior Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Changes to the Company’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

 

 

(d)

Use of Estimates and Judgments

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

The following are the critical judgments and estimates that management have made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements:

 

Research and development

Judgement is used to determine if expenditures for research and development will generate probable future economic benefits for capitalization. If an entity cannot demonstrate that probable future economic benefits can be generated, such expenditures are expensed.

 

Accounts payables, provisions and contingent liabilities

Judgment is required in estimating interest and penalties on the Company’s aged accounts payables. Judgement is used to estimate consideration required to settle present legal obligations and takes into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation and probability of future losses. 

 

Convertible debentures

The fair value of convertible debentures requires judgement on market interest rates used to discount convertible debentures.

 

Functional currency

The functional currency for each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the respective entity operates. Such determination involves certain judgements to identify the primary economic environment. The Company reconsiders the functional currency of its subsidiaries if there is a change in events and/or conditions which determine the primary economic environment.

 

Proceeds from issuance of units

Proceeds from unit placements are allocated between shares and warrants issued using the residual method. Proceeds are first allocated to shares according to the quoted price of existing shares at the time of issuance, then to warrants (if applicable) according to the residual value.

 

Determination of share-based payments

The estimation of share-based payments, including warrants, stock options and performance stock units (“PSUs”), requires the selection of an appropriate valuation model and consideration as to the inputs necessary for the valuation model chosen. The model used by the Company is the Black-Scholes valuation model at the date of the grant. The Company makes estimates as to the volatility, the forfeiture rate, the expected life, dividend yield and the time of exercise, as applicable. The expected volatility is based on the average volatility of share prices over the period of the expected life of the applicable warrants and stock options. The expected life is based on historical data. These estimates may not necessarily be indicative of future actual patterns.

 

The Company is required to exercise judgment on settlement of PSUs in common shares or in cash, which impacts classification and valuation of PSUs issued.

 

Judgement is also used to estimate share-based payments for common shares issued by MedMelior, a private entity, for services and takes into account the fair value of services received or, if fair value of services received cannot be reliably estimated, the fair value of common shares.

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

Going concern

In light of the Company’s limited liquidity, the Company is required to consider its ability to continue as a going concern which requires the exercise of significant judgement. In making this assessment, the Company prepared a cash flow forecast and considered the liquidity requirements over the next 12 months. This forecast contains a number of significant assumptions that are subject to material uncertainty. Despite this material uncertainty, the Company concludes that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting as the Company is confident, based on its financing history, debt settlements in the subsequent period, as well as additional planned measures, that sufficient funds will be forthcoming. Accordingly, management has prepared these consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.

 

 

(e)

Foreign Currency

 

The Company’s presentation currency is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of the parent entity, BetterLife Pharma Inc., and its subsidiaries, MedMelior Inc. and Blife Therapeutics Inc., is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of the U.S. subsidiary, BetterLife Pharma US Inc., is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Hong Kong subsidiary, Altum Pharmaceuticals (HK) Limited, is the Hong Kong dollar. The functional currency of the Australian subsidiary, Altum Pharma (Australia) Pty Ltd., is the Australian dollar.

 

Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries at the exchange rate in effect at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other than the functional currency are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the financial position date. The resulting exchange gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other than the functional currency that are measured at fair value are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value is determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in other than the functional currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of transaction.

 

Foreign operations

For consolidation purposes, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to the presentation currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the financial position date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to the presentation currency using the average rates of exchange during the period. All resulting exchange differences are recorded as other comprehensive loss and accumulated in a separate component of shareholders’ equity or deficit, described as foreign currency translation adjustment.

 

 

(f)

Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments - classification and measurement

 

Financial Assets

The classification and measurement of financial assets is based on the Company’s business models for managing its financial assets and whether the contractual cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”). Financial assets are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at either (i) amortized cost; (ii) fair value through other comprehensive income, or (iii) at fair value through profit or loss.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

• Amortized cost

Financial assets classified and measured at amortized cost are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI. Financial assets classified at amortized cost are measured using the effective interest method. The Company’s accounts receivable, excluding tax receivables, are classified in this category.

 

• Fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”)

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTOCI are those assets that are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise to cash flows that are SPPI.

 

• Fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”)

Financial assets classified and measured at FVTPL are those assets that do not meet the criteria to be classified at amortized cost or at FVTOCI. The Company’s cash is classified in this category.

 

Financial Liabilities

All financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transactions costs that are directly attributable to issuing the financial liability. Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, financial guarantee liability, convertible debentures and loans payable are measured at amortized cost. The Company’s warrant liabilities are measured at FVTPL.

 

The Company reclassifies financial assets when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes. Financial liabilities are not reclassified. Financials assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or when the contractual rights to those assets are transferred. Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expired.

 

Financial instruments - impairment of financial assets

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting date, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for the financial asset at an amount equal to twelve month expected credit losses. The Company shall recognize in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, as an impairment gain or loss, the amount of expected credit losses (or reversal) that is required to adjust the loss allowance at the reporting date to the amount that is required to be recognized.

 

The Company classifies and discloses fair value measurements based on a three-level hierarchy:

 

 

a.

Level 1 – inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

b.

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

 

c.

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability are not based on observable market data.

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

(g)

Compound Financial Instruments

 

Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise of convertible debentures that can be converted into common shares and share purchase warrants at the option of the holder, when the number of common shares and share purchase warrants are fixed and do not vary with changes in fair value.

 

The liability component of compound financial instruments is initially recognized at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The equity component is initially recognized at the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

 

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not remeasured.

 

Interest related to the financial liability is recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. On conversion, the financial liability, along with the equity component recognized initially, is reclassified to equity and no gain or loss is recognized.

 

 

(h)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash in the consolidated statement of financial position is comprised of cash and short-term deposits which have an original maturity of three months or less or are readily convertible into a known amount of cash. At January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

 

(i)

Provisions and Contingent Liabilities

 

Provisions are recorded when a present legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of past events where it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the consolidated statement of financial position date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, the receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount receivable can be measured reliably.

 

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the Company. It can also be a present obligation arising from past events that is not recognized because it is not probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required, or the amount of obligation cannot be measured reliably.

 

A contingent liability is not recognized but is disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements where material. When a change in the probability of an outflow occurs so that the outflow is probable, it will then be recognized as a provision.

(j)

Equity

 

Common shares

Common shares represent the amount received on the issue of common shares, less issuance costs, net of any underlying income tax benefit from these issuance costs. If common shares are issued when stock options and warrants are exercised, share capital will comprise of the compensation costs previously recorded as reserves. In addition, if common shares are issued as consideration for the acquisition of a form of non-monetary assets, they are measured at their fair value according to the quoted price on the date of issuance.

 

Unit placements

Proceeds from unit placements are allocated between common shares and share purchase warrants issued using the residual method. Proceeds are first allocated to common shares according to the quoted price of existing common shares at the time of issuance and any residual in the proceeds is allocated to warrants. If the warrant is exercised, the value attributed to the warrant is transferred to share capital.

 

The Company may modify the terms of warrants originally granted. When modifications exist, the Company will maintain the original fair value of the warrant.

 

Other elements of equity

Reserves include charges related to stock options, compensation options and share purchase warrants until such stock options and share purchase warrants are exercised.

 

 

(k)

Share-based Payments

 

The Company grants share purchase options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), PSUs and deferred share units (“DSUs”) under its Long-term Incentive Plan described in Note 11 to employees, consultants, directors and others providing similar services.

 

The fair value of share purchase options granted is measured at the grant date using an option pricing model. Subsequently, the fair value of share purchase options ultimately expected to vest is charged to operations over the vesting period. Share purchase options granted to third parties in exchange for goods or services are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received and charged to operations over the vesting period. If the Company cannot estimate reliably the fair value of the goods or services received, the Company measures their value based on the fair value of the share purchase options granted.

 

The fair values of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs granted are measured at grant dates share prices and the expense is allocated over the vesting period based on the best available estimate of the number of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs expected to vest. Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs that are expected to be issued or paid. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of RSUs, PSUs or DSUs expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognized in prior period if the number of RSUs, PSUs or DSUs that are ultimately issued or paid are different to that estimated on vesting. The accumulated charges related to RSUs, PSUs and DSUs recorded in reserves are transferred to common shares on issuance of common shares in payment of vested RSUs, PSUs and DSUs.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive income or loss is the change in net assets arising from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income will have revaluation gains and losses included in other comprehensive income or loss until the asset is removed from the consolidated statement of financial position. Certain gains and losses on the translation of amounts between the functional and presentation currency of the Company are included in other comprehensive income or loss. Gains and losses on translation of foreign subsidiaries are initially recognized in other comprehensive income or loss. Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss on translation of foreign subsidiaries are reclassified from equity to deficit on disposal of the subsidiary.

The Company presents the basic and diluted earnings or loss per share data for its common shares, calculated by dividing the earnings or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings or loss per share is determined by adjusting the earnings or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares. For the years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, basic net loss per share equals diluted net loss per share as the Company incurred net losses during these years and the Company’s stock options and warrants were anti-dilutive.

 

 

(n)

Taxes

 

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

 

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

 

Deferred tax is recognized 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. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

(o)

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 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.

 

 

(p)

Segment Reporting

 

The Company presents and discloses segmental information based on information that is regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer and the Board of Directors. The allocation of resources between the different operating segments and the assessment of the performance of the operating segments is the responsibility of the Chief Executive Officer.

 

The Company has determined that it has only one operating segment: Development and commercialization of patented pharmaceuticals.

 

3. New Accounting Pronouncements

 

The following new accounting standards and interpretations will be adopted by the Company subsequent to January 31, 2026.

 

 

(a)

IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

 

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 will establish a revised structure for the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and improve comparability across entities and reporting periods. IFRS 18 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The new standard is required to be adopted retroactively, with certain transition provisions. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting IFRS 18 on the consolidated financial statements.

 

 

(b)

IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 – Financial Instruments: Disclosures

 

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, to provide further guidance on the timing of recognition and derecognition of financial instruments at settlement date, except for regular way purchases or sales of financial assets, and certain financial liabilities meeting conditions for a new exception which permits companies to elect to derecognize certain financial liabilities settled via electronic payment systems earlier than the settlement date. Additional guidance was also provided on assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion, and issued new disclosure requirements. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of the standard on the Company's consolidated financial statements and has determined that there is no material impact.

 

4. Intangible Assets

 

The Company is currently developing several drug candidates and holds a portfolio of patents related to them. The relevant intangible assets have been fully impaired in prior years and currently are recorded at carrying values of $nil.

(l) On March 14, 2023, the Company closed on a non-brokered private placement and issued 3,571,429 units at price of US$0.07 per unit for gross proceeds of $357,143 (US$250,000). Each unit consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of US$0.11 and expiring on March 14, 2028. The residual method was used to allocate the proceeds between the common shares and the warrants which resulted in a value of $48,846 allocated to warrants (Note 9(a)).

 

(m) On July 10, 2023, the Company closed on a non-brokered private placement and issued 2,200,000 units at price of $0.10 per unit for gross proceeds of $220,000. Each unit consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.15 and expiring on July 9, 2028. The residual method was used to allocate the proceeds between the common shares and the warrants which resulted in a value of $44,000 allocated to warrants (Note 9(c)).

 

(n) On August 31, 2023, the Company closed on a non-brokered private placement and issued 2,950,000 units at price of $0.10 per unit for gross proceeds of $295,000 (Note 14). Each unit consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.10 and expiring on August 30, 2025. The residual method was used to allocate the proceeds between the common shares and the warrants which resulted in a value of $44,250 allocated to warrants (Note 9(c)).

 

Share issue costs totaling $12,999 consisted of the following: 114,000 brokers’ warrants with fair value of $5,399 and brokers’ fee of $7,600. Brokers’ warrants entitle the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.10 and expiring on August 30, 2025. The fair values of the brokers’ warrants were determined using the fair values of the common shares issued as values of services provided could not be estimated reliably. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the brokers’ warrants (Note 9(c)).

 

(o) On December 15, 2023, the Company closed on a non-brokered private placement and issued 2,000,000 units at price of $0.10 per unit for gross proceeds of $200,000 (Note 14). Each unit consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.10 and expiring on December 14, 2025. The residual method was used to allocate the proceeds between the common shares and the warrants which resulted in a value of $80,000 allocated to warrants (Note 9(c)).

9. Share Purchase Warrants

 

(a) Warrant liabilities

 

At January 31, 2026, the Company has 3,571,429 share purchase warrants with exercise prices denominated in US dollars (January 31, 2025 – 3,571,429). When non-compensatory warrants have an exercise price denominated in a currency which is different from the functional currency of the Company (Canadian dollar), the warrants are treated as financial liabilities. These warrants are therefore classified as financial liabilities with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. The warrant liabilities are measured using Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

(b) Warrant liabilities of MedMelior

 

At January 31, 2026, MedMelior has no share purchase warrants with exercise prices denominated in U.S. dollars (January 31, 2025 – 221,333). When non-compensatory warrants have an exercise price denominated in a currency which is different from the functional currency of MedMelior (Canadian dollar), the warrants are treated as financial liabilities.

16. Commitments and Contingencies

 

(a) In November 2019, the Company’s former chief executive officer filed an originating application with the Superior Court in the province of Quebec for damages stemming from a termination of employment. The former chief executive officer was seeking payment of amounts totaling approximately $1 million, exercisability of his share purchase options until the original expiry dates, issuance of 600,000 share purchase options and an order that the Company not issue further common shares. In December 2023, this claim was settled for $120,000, which was paid in 12 equal monthly instalments from January 1, 2024 to December 1, 2024.

 

(b) In March 2021, Olymbec Development Inc. (“Olymbec”) filed a judicial demand before the Superior Court (Civil Division) of Quebec and a judgement for a safeguard order was obtained by Olymbec against Pivot Pharmaceuticals Manufacturing Corp. (“Pivot”), a former subsidiary, and the Company, as guarantor of the lease at 285-295 Kesmark Street, Quebec (the “Lease”), ordering Pivot and the Company to jointly pay the full amount of the Lease on the first day of each month. In May 2021, a judgement for a safeguard order was issued ordering Pivot and the Company to provide post-dated cheques for monthly lease payments for the months of June through November 2021. In June 2021, a judgement granted Pivot and the Company until June 30, 2021 to pay the outstanding lease totaling $124,223 and to deliver post-dated cheques each in the amount of $49,410.51 for monthly lease payments for the months of July through November 2021, which were completed. On October 25, 2023, due to non-payment of rent by Pivot, Olymbec terminated the Lease. An order for Pivot’s bankruptcy was granted on December 11, 2023 by the Superior Court (Commercial Division) of Quebec. On December 16, 2024, the Superior Court (Civil Division) of Quebec issued a judgment ordering the Company to pay Olymbec $367,428, representing lease unpaid by Pivot and administrative charges, plus $15,000 as punitive damages (Note 16(c)). On March 17, 2025, this judgment was registered with the Supreme Court of British Columbia.

 

(c) The Company is a guarantor on the Lease (Note 16(b)), which was assigned together with the sale of Pivot in October 2020 pursuant to which the Company has recorded a financial guarantee liability of $412,854 (January 31, 2025 - $382,428).

16. Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

 

 

(d) The Company and MedMelior were named as defendants in a lawsuit before the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County (“State Court”) by a former director of MedMelior, who served as director prior to MedMelior’s amalgamation with the Company. This former director filed a verified complaint on January 20, 2022, seeking compensatory and punitive damages in amounts believed by the Company to be in excess of US$2 million and US$10 million, respectively. During March 2022, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on the basis of inconvenient forum and for lack of jurisdiction. On December 1, 2022, following oral argument on the motion, the State Court dismissed the complaint in its entirety. On April 29, 2022, in response to the Company’s then-pending motion to dismiss, the former director filed a separate, parallel action, naming the Company and MedMelior before the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (“Federal Court”), asserting substantially the same claims as in the State Court action. On March 3, 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the claims filed in the Federal Court on the basis of inconvenient forum and for lack of jurisdiction. On November 27, 2023, the Federal Court dismissed the claims in their entirety, following which the former director noticed a federal appeal. In November 2024, the former director allowed the time to perfect the federal appeal to lapse. With dismissals by both the State and Federal Courts and the lapse in appeal, the former director’s claims are concluded without any payment or penalties against the Company and MedMelior. During the year ended January 31, 2025, the Company recorded $556,640 as a gain from the legal claim within “Settlement and legal provisions, net” in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

 

(e) At January 31, 2026, certain of the Company’s research and development programs, with a total contracted amount of $1.97 million, were in progress of which the Company has paid $1.59 million and a further $370,000 remains to be paid in future periods.

 

(f) At January 31, 2026, there may be a contingent liability related to potential interest or penalties that vendors may charge on the Company’s aged accounts payables. Due to the absence of reliable estimates for this amount, no provisions have been recorded by the Company.

 

17. Operating Segment

 

The Company operates in one industry segment, development and commercialization of patented pharmaceuticals within one geographical area. All of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in Canada.

 

18. Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.

 

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position are grouped into three levels of fair value hierarchy. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the placement within the fair value hierarchy level.

18. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

 

The carrying values of accounts receivable excluding tax receivables, due to related parties and amounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate the fair values due to the short-term nature of these items. The fair value of the convertible debentures and loans payable is partially derived from market interest rates. The risk of material change in fair value is not considered to be significant due to a relatively short-term nature. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to manage this risk.

 

The following is an analysis of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at fair value as at January 31, 2026 and 2025:
