In October 2024, the corporate office changed its functional currency from CAD to USD. As a result, the CAD denominated warrants became derivative liability. The Company reclassified the warrants from equity to derivative liabilities at their fair value, the difference between the fair value of the warrants and the carrying value was recognized in equity upon reclassification. All warrants were exercised during the year ended March 31, 2026.
