CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
ImmunoPrecise Antibodies, Ltd.
Opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd. (a British Columbia limited company) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of April 30, 2022, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Basis for opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit 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 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 audit 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 audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholders of ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd. (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at April 30, 2021 and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at April 30, 2021 and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises:
 
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
 
 
SEC Form 40-F
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
We obtained the other information prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact in this auditor’s report. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
 
 
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
 
 
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
 
 
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
 
 
Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
 
 
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

 
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Keith Gagnon.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS
ImmunoPrecise Antibodies Ltd. (the “Company” or “IPA”) was incorporated under the laws of Alberta on November 22, 1983. The Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) as a Tier 2 life science issuer under the trading symbol “IPA”. The Company’s common shares were approved for listing on the NASDAQ Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading ticker symbol “IPA.” Trading on Nasdaq commenced at market open on December 30, 2020. The Company is a supplier of custom hybridoma development services. The address of the Company’s corporate office is 3204 – 4464 Markham Street, Victoria, BC, Canada V8Z 7X8.
On November 23, 2020, the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of 5
pre-consolidation
shares for one post-consolidation share (the “Consolidation”). All references to share and per share amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the Consolidation.
Going concern basis
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. This assumes the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its obligations in the normal course of operations. The Company has incurred operating losses since inception, including $16.7 million for the year ended April 30, 2022 and has accumulated a deficit of $46.5 million as of April 30, 2022. The Company has $30.0 million cash on hand as of April 30, 2022 which will sustain its existing operations through at least the next twelve months. The Company may need to raise additional funds in order to fund its strategic goals and there can be no assurances that sufficient funding, including adequate financing, will be available. The ability of the Company to arrange additional financing in the future depends in part, on the prevailing capital market conditions and profitability of its operations. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the consolidated financial statements.
COVID-19
Pandemic
In March 2020, there was a global pandemic outbreak of
COVID-19.
The actual and threatened spread of the virus globally has had a material adverse effect on the global economy and specifically, the regional economies in which the Company operates. The pandemic has evolved due to the spread of variants which has resulted in delays in the course of business, including disruptions of the Company’s PolyTope
TM
program, and could have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to raise new capital. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on the Company’s business or results of operations at this time.

Control is achieved when the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with an entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is obtained and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Intercompany balances, transactions and unrealized intercompany gains and losses are eliminated upon consolidation.
The Company merged
U-Protein
Express B.V. and Immulease B.V. into ImmunoPrecise Antibodies (Europe) B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of ImmunoPrecise Netherlands B.V., on January 1, 2021.

Functional and presentation currency
The functional currency of a company is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates. The presentation currency for a company is the currency in which the company chooses to present its financial statements. The presentation currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar.
Foreign currency translation
Entities whose functional currencies differ from the presentation currency are translated into Canadian dollars as follows: assets and liabilities – at the closing rate as at the reporting date, and income and expenses – at the average rate of the period. All resulting changes are recognized in other comprehensive income as cumulative translation differences.
Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates at the date of the transactions. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the functional currency exchange rate at the reporting date.
Non-monetary
items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions.
Non-monetary
items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value is determined. All gains and losses on translation of these foreign currency transactions are included in profit or loss.

When the Company disposes of its entire interest in a foreign op
erati
on, or loses control, joint control, or significant influence over a foreign operation, the foreign currency gains or losses accumulated in other comprehensive income related to the foreign operation are recognized in profit or loss. If an entity disposes of part of an interest in a foreign operation which remains a subsidiary, a proportionate amount of foreign currency gains or losses accumulated in other comprehensive income related to the subsidiary are reallocated between controlling and
non-controlling
interests.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition model. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Company, liabilities incurred by the Company to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Company in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired, and the liabilities assumed are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any
non-controlling
interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any
non-controlling
interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
When the consideration transferred by the Company in a business combination includes assets or liabilities resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value and included as part of the consideration transferred in a business combination. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date.

Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from sale of antibodies and service agreements.

Sale of antibodies: Revenue from sale of antibodies is recognized when the terms of a contract with a customer have been satisfied. This occurs when:
 
   
The control over the product has been transferred to the customer; and
 
   
The product is received by the customer or transfer of title to the customer occurs upon shipment.
Following delivery, the customer bears the risks of obsolescence and loss in relation to the goods. Revenue is recognized based on the price specified in the contract, net of estimated sales discounts and returns.

Contract revenue:
Revenues from contracted services are generally recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied over time, and the related expenditures are incurred pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Contract revenue is recognized on a percentage of completion basis when the key milestones contained within the contract are satisfied and there is an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. For contracts with no enforceable right to payment when the contract is incomplete, contract revenue is recognized on a completed contract basis when the customers are satisfied with the service at the end of the contract.
Unbilled revenue and deferred revenue:
Amounts recognized as revenue in excess of billings are classified as unbilled revenue. Amounts received in advance of the performance of services are classified as deferred revenue.
Cost of sales:
Cost of sales includes materials, direct labor, and allocation of overhead including depreciation of lab equipment.
Financial instruments
Recognition and Classification
The Company recognizes a financial asset or financial liability on the statement of financial position when it becomes party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”), at fair value through other comprehensive income (loss) (“FVTOCI”) or at amortized cost. The Company determines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of debt instruments is driven by the Company’s business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics.
Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an
instrument-by-instrument
basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI. Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for trading or derivatives) or if the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.

Measurement
Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL:
Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. Where management has opted to recognize a financial liability at FVTPL, any changes associated with the Company’s own credit risk will be recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).
Financial assets at FVTOCI:
Elected investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).

Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost:
Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment.
Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost:
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 the twelve month expected credit losses.
Irrespective of the preceding policy, the Company always measures the loss allowance of trade receivables at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses.
The Company shall recognize in profit or 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.
Derecognition
Financial assets:
The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in profit or loss. However, gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Financial liabilities:
The Company derecognizes financial liabilities only when its obligations under the financial liabilities are discharged, cancelled or expired. Generally, the difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable, including any
non-cash
assets, is recognized in profit or loss.
Government assistance
The Company periodically applies for financial assistance under available government incentive programs. Government assistance relating to capital expenditures is reflected as a reduction of the cost of such assets. Government assistance relating to research and development expenditures is recorded as a reduction of current year’s expenses when the related expenditures are incurred.
Government grant
The Company periodically applies for financial assistance under available government incentive programs. The grant is recognized when there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with the conditions attached to them and the grants will be received. All funds received as part of the grant or subsidies are reflected in grant and subsidy income.
Inventory
Inventory consists of supplies, parts and antibodies and is valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Costs include acquisition, freight and other directly attributable costs.

The Company evaluates equipment and leasehold improvements for indications of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Impairment losses are immediately recognized in profit and loss.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalized development costs, are not capitalized and the related expenditure is reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. Amortization for intangible assets with finite lives is provided over the following terms:

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but are tested for impairment annually, either individually or at the cash-generating unit level. The assessment of indefinite life is reviewed annually to determine whether the indefinite life continues to be supportable. If not, the change in useful life from indefinite to finite is made on a prospective basis.
Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a business combination over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not subject to amortization and an impairment test is performed annually or as events occur that could indicate impairment.
Goodwill is reported at cost less any impairment. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (“CGU”s). To test for impairment, goodwill is allocated to each of the Company’s CGUs, groups of CGUs, or an operating segment expected to benefit from the acquisition. Goodwill is tested by combining the carrying amounts of equipment and leasehold improvements, intangible assets and goodwill and comparing this to the recoverable amount. Fair value less costs of disposal is price to be received in an orderly transaction between market participants. Value in use is assessed using the present value of the expected future cash flows. Any excess of the carrying amount over the recoverable amount is recorded as impairment. Impairment charges, which are not tax affected, are recognized in profit or loss and are not reversed.

Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparison of their carrying amount to the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs of disposal or the value in use. Value in use is determined by the present value of the future cash flows from the asset. If the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, then there is impairment. Where an impairment loss exists, the portion of the carrying amount exceeding the recoverable amount is recorded as an expense immediately. Assets that have been impaired in prior periods are tested for possible reversal of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the impairment has reversed. If the impairment has reversed, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount but not beyond the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior periods. The reversal is recognized in profit or loss immediately.
Income taxes
Income taxes are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income (loss), except where they relate to items recognized directly in equity, in which case the related taxes are recognized in equity.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the difference between the tax and accounting values of assets and liabilities and are calculated using enacted or substantively enacted tax rates for the periods in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of tax rate changes is recognized in profit or loss or equity, as applicable, in the period of substantive enactment. Current taxes receivable or payable are estimated on taxable income for the current year at the statutory tax rates enacted or substantively enacted.
Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits of the relevant entity or group of entities, in a particular jurisdiction, will be available against which the assets can be utilized. As an exception, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary differences arise from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
Investment tax credits (“ITCs”) are accounted for as a reduction in the cost of the expense when there is reasonable assurance that such credits will be realized. These ITCs are used to reduce current income taxes payable.

Leases
At inception of a contract, the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The liabilities for leases of
right-of-use
assets are recognized at the lease commencement date at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at that date. The lease payments are discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. At the commencement date, a
right-of-use
asset is measured at cost, which is comprised of the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any decommissioning and restoration costs, less any lease incentives received.

Each lease payment is allocated between repayment of the lease principal and interest. Interest on the lease liability in each period during the lease term is allocated to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liability. Except where the costs are included in the carrying amount of another asset, the Company recognizes in profit or loss (a) the interest on a lease liability and (b) variable lease payments not included in the measurement of a lease liability in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs. The Company subsequently measures the
right-of-use
asset at cost less any accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses; and adjusted for any remeasurement of the lease liability.
Right-of-use
assets are depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life or the lease term, except where the lease contains a bargain purchase option a
right-of-use
asset is depreciated over the asset’s useful life.
Research and development
Research and development cost is charged to the income statement in the period in which it is incurred. Property, plant and equipment used for research and development is capitalized and depreciated in accordance with the equipment and leasehold improvements policy.
Share capital
Equity instruments are contracts that give a residual interest in the net assets of the Company. The Company’s common shares are classified as equity instruments.
Proceeds from unit placements are allocated between common shares and warrants issued based on the residual value method, with the common shares being valued first.
Share issuance costs
Costs directly identifiable with the raising of share capital financing are charged against share capital. Share issuance costs incurred in advance of share subscriptions are recorded as deferred assets. Share issuance costs related to uncompleted share subscriptions are charged to operations.
Share-based payments
Where equity-settled share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to profit or loss over the vesting period. 
Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period.
Where equity instruments are granted to
non-employees,
they are recorded at the fair value of the goods or services received in profit or loss, unless they are related to the issuance of shares. Amounts related to the issuance of shares are recorded as a reduction of share capital.
When the value of goods or services received in exchange for the share-based payment cannot be reliably estimated, the fair value is measured by use of a valuation model. The expected life used in the model is adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of
non-transferability,
exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations.

All equity-settled share-based payments are reflected in contributed surplus, until exercised. Upon exercise, shares are issued from treasury and the amount reflected in contributed surplus is credited to share capital, adjusted for any consideration paid.
Where a grant of options is cancelled or settled during the vesting period, excluding forfeitures when vesting conditions are not satisfied, the Company immediately accounts for the cancellation as an acceleration of vesting and recognizes the amount that otherwise would have been recognized for services received over the remainder of the vesting period. Any payment made to the employee on the cancellation is accounted for as the repurchase of an equity interest except to the extent the payment exceeds the fair value of the equity instrument granted, measured at the repurchase date. Any such excess is recognized as an expense.
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. In periods where a net loss is incurred, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation as the effect would be anti-dilutive and basic and diluted loss per common share is the same. In a profit year, under the treasury stock method, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding used for the calculation of diluted earnings per share assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants are used to repurchase common shares at the average price during the year.

ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Standards not yet adopted
Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract (Amendments to IAS 37)
The amendments to IAS 37 specify which costs an entity includes in determining the cost of fulfilling a contract for the purpose of assessing whether the contract is onerous. Costs that relate directly to a contract can either be incremental costs of fulfilling contracts (an example would be direct labour, materials) or an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling contracts (an example would be the allocation of the depreciation charge for an item of property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling the contract).
These amendments are effective for the reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022.
Classification of Liabilities as Current or
Non-Current
(Amendments to IAS 1)
The amendments to IAS 1 provide a more general approach to the classification of liabilities based on the contractual arrangements in place at the reporting date.
These amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS required estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates and judgments. Estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the year in which the estimate is revised.
Judgements
Business combinations
Acquisitions of a business are accounted for as a business combination if the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business in accordance with IFRS 3. Judgement is required to determine if the transaction meets the definition of a business combination.
During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Idea Family BV, BioStrand BV, BioKey BV, and BioClue BV (collectively “BioStrand”), as detailed in Note 7. Management concluded that BioStrand met the definition of a business, and accounted for the transaction as a business combination.
The acquisition of BioStrand includes potential future
earn-out
payments dependent on the future profitability of the business. Judgement is required to determine whether the payments constitute an exchange for the business or are transactions separate from the business combination. The potential future
earn-out
payments to the selling shareholders of BioStrand will be accounted for separate from the business combination.
Impairments
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (“CGU”s). Management applies judgement to determine CGUs. Each asset or CGU is evaluated every reporting period to determine whether there are any indicators of impairment. If any such indicators exist, which is often judgment based, a formal estimate of recoverable amount is performed and an impairment charge is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.
The Company performs a goodwill impairment test annually and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill acquired through business combinations has been allocated to two different CGUs, the Company’s Oss and Utrecht locations at IPA Europe. The goodwill allocated to Oss and Utrecht was $2.8 million and $4.3 million, respectively, as at April 30, 2022. Due to the preliminary nature of the purchase price allocation, BioStrand was not tested for impairment during the year ended April 30, 2022. See Note 11 for additional information.
Estimates
Business combinations
At acquisition date, the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized at their fair value. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition-date fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Estimates are required to determine the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and estimated fair values may vary from prices that would be achieved in an arm’s length transaction at the acquisition date (see Note 7).

Impairments
The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU of assets is measured at the higher of fair value less costs of disposal or value in use. These determinations and their individual assumptions require that management make a decision based on the best available information at each reporting period. The estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty; hence, there is the possibility that changes in circumstances will alter these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of the assets. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying value of the assets may be further impaired or the impairment charge reversed with the impact recorded in profit or loss.
The recoverable amount of each CGU was based on value in use, determined by discounting the future cash flows to be generated from the continuing use of the CGU. The cash flows were projected over a five-year period based on past experience and actual operating results.
The Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test in April 2022 and no impairment was indicated for the period tested. The values assigned to the key assumptions represented management’s assessment of future trends in the industry and were based on historical data from both internal and external sources. A weighted average cost of capital of 14.27% was used in the assessments of the two CGUs (see Note 11).
Life of intangible assets
Intangible assets are amortized based on estimated useful life less their estimated residual value. Significant assumptions are involved in the determination of useful life and residual values and no assurance can be given that the actual useful lives and residual values will not differ significantly from current assumptions. Actual useful life and residual values may vary depending on a number of factors including internal technical evaluation, attributes of the assets and experience with similar assets. Changes to these estimates may affect the carrying value of assets, net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) in future periods (see Note 10).
Share-based payments
Where equity-settled share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to profit and loss over the vesting period. The Company makes assumptions to determine the estimated forfeiture rate of the share options, and these estimates are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. Changes to these estimates may affect contributed surplus and net income (loss) (see Note 14).

ACQUISITION OF BIOSTRAND
On April 13, 2022, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of BioStrand on terms as follows:
 
 
   
2.7 million (CAD $3.7 million) was paid in cash on closing;
 
   
4,077,774 common shares of the Company were issued on closing;
 
   
Deferred cash payment of €
0.5 million
 
(CAD $0.7 million)
 to be paid 90 days subsequent to closing; and
 
   
Deferred cash payment of €
0.5 million
(CAD $0.6 million)
 
to be paid over the next 3 years.
BioStrand focuses on technology in the field of bioinformatics and biotechnology related to the identification of characteristic biological sequences in proteins, RNA and DNA, and their different information layers, the development of a knowledgebase containing these characteristic biological sequences and information layers, and the use of this database to process biological sequences and compare processed biological sequences. The acquisition provides the Company with advanced omics capabilities to enhance its antibody discovery processes and offer multi-omics data analysis to its clients.
The transaction was accounted for as a business combination, as the operations of BioStrand meet the definition of a business. As the transaction was accounted for as a business combination, legal and consulting costs of $0.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively, were expensed during the year ended April 30, 2022. The goodwill resulting from the allocation of the purchase price to the total fair value of net assets will represent the sales growth potential and assembled workforce of BioStrand. 
The fair value of the consideration transferred has been determined on a preliminary basis. The fair value of the consideration transferred will be finalized after adjustments for working capital have been agreed upon by the Company and the selling party pursuant to the share purchase agreement. The consideration has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a preliminary basis based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
The assets acquired include intellectual property, requiring a complex fair value analysis using multiple valuation techniques. Due to the timing of the transaction and the nature of the acquired assets of this development-stage entity, the Company will require additional information to allocate the fair values to the net assets acquired, particularly to the intangible assets and goodwill acquired. Due to the proximity of the acquisition date to the balance sheet date of April 30, 2022, the initial accounting and the third-party valuation of these assets is incomplete. The Company, with the support of its third-party valuation specialist, is currently in the process of completing the assessment of valuation inputs and assumptions.

INVESTMENT
Investment consists of a 23% (April 30, 2021 – 29%) interest in QVQ Holding B.V. (“QVQ”), which is recorded at fair value using precedent shareholder equity transactions. Judgment is required as to the extent of influence that the Company has over QVQ. The Company considered the extent of voting power over the entity, the power to participate in financial and operating policy decisions of the entity, representation on the board of directors, material transactions between the entities, interchange of management personnel, and provision of essential technical information. The Company has determined that the Company is not considered to have significant influence over QVQ, as the Company does not have the power to participate in financial and operating policy decisions and does not have representation on the Board of Directors of QVQ.

The goodwill allocated to BioStrand has been determined on a preliminary basis. Due to the timing of the acquisition, the Company will require additional information to allocate the fair values to the net assets acquired, particularly to intangible assets and goodwill acquired. The BioStrand cash-generating unit was not tested for impairment during the year ended April 30, 2022 due to the preliminary nature of the purchase price allocation.
The growth rates reflect the average GDP growth rate of the Netherlands. The discount rates reflect management’s assessment of market and specific risk of the cash-generating units. Both the Oss and Utrecht cash-generating units operate in the same region and are included in the same operating segment of the Company. The cash flow forecasts include a key management assumption that future profit margins will remain stable, and is based on previous performance of the cash-generating units. The assumption for future profit margins is based on management’s review of the prior 
three years
 of performance of the cash-generating units.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
On May 15, 2020, the Company closed a
non-brokered
private placement financing by issuing 10% convertible debentures (“New Debentures”) for total proceeds of $2.59 million. On May 27, 2020, the Company issued an additional $0.04 million of the 10% New Debentures. In total, the Company issued $2.6 million of the New Debentures. The New Debentures are unsecured, bear interest at a rate of 10% per year and payable at maturity. The maturity date is May 15, 2022 for $2.59 million of the New Debentures and May 22, 2022 for $0.04 million of the New Debentures. The principal amount of the New Debentures may be convertible, at the option of the holder, into units of the Company at a conversion price of $4.25 per share. The Company may force convert the principal amount of the New Debentures at $4.25 per share if the average closing price is equal to or greater than $7.50 for 20 trading days.
The fair value of the New Debentures at the time of issue was calculated as the discounted cash flows assuming a 15% effective interest rate. The fair value of the equity component was determined at the time of issue as the difference between the face value and the fair value of the New Debentures. On initial recognition, the Company bifurcated $2.4 million to the carrying value of the New Debentures and $0.2 million to the equity component.
Under the financing, the Company paid finder’s cash commissions totaling $0.08 million and incurred legal and filing fees of $0.03 million. The transaction costs were allocated
pro-rata
based on the carrying values of the New
 
Debentures and the equity component, with $0.1 million allocated to the New Debentures and $0.01 million allocated to the equity component.
During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded accretion expense of $0.9 million. The changes in the value of the New Debentures during the year ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

asset and a lease liability. The Company classifies
right-of-use
assets in a consistent manner to its property and equipment. The following is a schedule of the Company’s future minimum lease payments related to the equipment and automobiles under finance lease and the office lease obligation:

Right-of-use
assets
The Company
 reviews long-lived assets with finite useful lives for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. During the year ended April 30, 2022, a significant change in the planned use of a
right-of-use
asset related to leased office space indicated possible impairment of the asset. Due to the nature of the leased space, the Company determined the recoverable amount to be nominal, and recorded an impairment charge of $0.2 million, the full carrying value of the asset.

e
 Company will be entitled, at its discretion and from
time-to-time
during the term of the ATM Agreement, to sell, through the Agent common shares of th

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, amounts receivable, restricted cash, investment, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debentures, loans payable, leases and deferred acquisition payments.
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. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, by reference to the reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values.
Level 1 – applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 – applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The fair value of investment is determined based on “Level 2” inputs as its value under the equity method was the best approximation of its fair value. As at April 30, 2022, the Company believes the carrying values of cash, amounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debentures, loans payable, leases and deferred acquisition payments approximate their fair values because of their nature and relatively short maturity dates or durations.
Concentration of risk:
Concentrations of credit risk

Credit risk relates to cash, restricted cash and amounts receivable and arises from the possibility that counterparty to an instrument may fail to perform. At April 30, 2022, all of the Company’s cash was held with tier one banks. Details of amounts receivable and allowances for doubtful accounts as at April 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

Currency risk
The Company operates in the US and Europe which gives rise to exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency values. Most significantly, the Company is exposed to potential currency fluctuations between US and Canadian dollars, which was translated at 1.2792 at April 30, 2022, and the Euro and Canadian dollar, which was translated at 1.3492 at April 30, 2022. Fluctuations in the exchange rate could impact profitability.

The Company entered into an agreement advancing research on the Company’s
SARS-CoV-2
PolyTope
TM
Cocktail, with a current obligation of US$7.9 million over the next six months related to this program.
The share purchase agreement related to the acquisition of BioStrand includes contingent earnout payments based on 20% of the EBITDA of BioStrand, as defined in the share purchase agreement, over a 7-year period, which shall not exceed in total
12.0 million.
 
The Company has determined these payments relate to post-acquisition services because they are contingent on the employment of two key employees and will be expensed in the period earned.
