| ALTUM PHARMACEUTICALS INC.<br> <br>Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)<br> <br>(Expressed in Canadian dollars)<br> <br>For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 |
|---|
| 1. | Nature of Operations and Going Concern |
|---|---|
| Altum Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”, or “API”) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act on June 15, 2016 and its head office is located at 1275 West 6th Avenue, Suite 300, Vancouver, British Columbia. The Company is engaged in the development and commercialization of patented, differentiated and premium quality pharmaceuticals. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern. This assumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company reported a net loss of 3,641,797 (2019 – 2,058,765) and used funds for operating activities of 1,080,979 (2019 - 1,422,529) for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company had accumulated deficit of 27,703,224 (March 31, 2020 - 24,061,427) as of June 30, 2020. These factors indicate material uncertainties that cast substantial doubt about to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining financing through the issuance of debt or equity, or successful development and commercialization of its product portfolio, which have been impacted as a result of the global outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) (Note 2(d)). The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The Company will continue to review the prospects of raising additional financing to support its operations until such time that its operations become self-sustaining, to fund its research and development activities and to ensure the realization of its assets and discharge of its liabilities. While the Company is expending its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate sufficient funds for future operations. The Company is not expected to be profitable during the ensuing twelve months and therefore must rely on securing additional funds from either issuance of debt or equity. During 2020, the Company received net cash proceeds of 808,731 (2019 - 1,626,847) pursuant to financing activities. The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its operations. Such adjustments could be material. | |

| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) | |
|---|---|---|
| (b) | Basis of Measurement and Presentation | |
| These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at their fair value as explained in the accounting policies set out below.<br> <br><br> <br>These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and reporting currency. The functional currency of its wholly owned subsidiaries, Altum Pharmaceuticals International Inc. (“APII”), Altum Pharmaceuticals Barbados Inc. (“APBI”) and Altum S1M US Corp. (“AS1M US”), is United States dollars. The functional currency of its wholly owned subsidiary, Opes Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Opes”), is Canadian dollars. The functional currency of its wholly owned subsidiary, Altum Pharmaceuticals (HK) Limited (“Altum HK”), is the Hong Kong dollar. | ||
| (c) | Basis of Consolidation | |
| These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Altum Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“API”) (incorporated in Canada on June 15, 2016) and its wholly owned subsidiaries APII (incorporated in Barbados on July 28, 2016 and dissolved in December 2020), APBI (incorporated in Barbados on July 28, 2016 and dissolved in December 2020), Altum S1M US (incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 22, 2016), Opes (incorporated in Canada, acquired on November 10, 2016 and divested on May 7, 2020) and Altum HK (incorporated in Hong Kong on October 16, 2019).<br> <br><br> <br>The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the condensed consolidated interim statements of comprehensive loss from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. All intra-company transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation. | ||
| (d) | Use of Estimates and Judgements | |
| The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts and other disclosures in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.<br> <br><br> <br>The 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 further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.<br> <br><br> <br>Critical accounting estimates<br> <br>Critical accounting estimates are estimates and assumptions made by management that may result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Critical estimates used in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the recoverability of deferred tax assets, fair value of share-based payments and warrants, and useful life of intangible assets. |

| ALTUM PHARMACEUTICALS INC.<br> <br>Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)<br> <br>(Expressed in Canadian dollars)<br> <br>For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 |
|---|
| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| (d) | Use of Estimates and Judgements (continued) | ||
| (i) | The Company recognizes the deferred tax benefit related to deferred tax assets to the extent recovery is probable. Assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets requires management to make significant estimates of future taxable profit. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in the future periods. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the net deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted. | ||
| (ii) | Following initial recognition, the Company carries the value of the intangible asset at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recorded on the straight-line basis based upon management’s estimate of the useful life and residual value. The estimates are reviewed at least annually and are updated if expectations change as a result of the technical obsolescence or legal and other limits to use. A change in the useful life or residual value will impact the reported carrying value of the intangible asset resulting in a change in related amortization expense. | ||
| (iii) | The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model for valuation of share-based payments and warrants. Option pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions including expected price volatility, interest rate, and forfeiture rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect fair value estimates and the Company’s net loss and its equity reserves. Warrant liabilities are accounted for as financial liabilities as they are exercisable in US dollars (Note 12(a)). | ||
| (iv) | Depreciation of equipment is dependent upon estimates of useful lives and residual values which are determined through the exercise of judgment. The assessment of any impairment of these assets is dependent upon estimates of recoverable amounts that take into account factors such as economic and market conditions and the useful lives of assets. | ||
| Critical judgments |
| | Critical accounting judgments are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments. | | | | | | (i) | Management has applied judgments in the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern when preparing its condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The global outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has had a significant impact on businesses through the restrictions put in place by the Canadian and U.S. federal, provincial/state and municipal governments regarding travel, business operations and isolation/quarantine orders. At this time, it is unknown the extent of the impact the COVID-19 outbreak may have on the Company as this will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and that cannot be predicted with confidence. These uncertainties arise from the inability to predict the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, and the duration of the outbreak, including the duration of travel restrictions, business closures or disruptions, and quarantine/isolation measures that are currently, or may be put in place by Canada and other countries to fight the virus. While the extent of the impact is unknown, the Company anticipates this outbreak may cause supply chain disruptions, staff shortages, and increased government regulations, all of which may negatively impact the Company’s business and financial condition. Refer to Note 1 for additional factors impacting going concern assessment done by management. |

| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| (d) | Use of Estimates and Judgements (continued) | ||
| Management prepares the condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a going concern basis unless management either intends to liquidate the entity or has no realistic alternative but to do so. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. Management considered a wide range of factors relating to current and expected profitability and potential sources of replacement financing. As a result of the assessment, management concluded the ultimate appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. | |||
| (ii) | In concluding that the Canadian dollar is the functional currency of API and Opes, that the US dollar is the functional currency of APII, APBI, and AS1M US, and that the functional currency of Altum HK is the Hong Kong dollar, management considered the currency that mainly influences the cost of providing goods and services in the primary economic environment in which each entity operates, or if there has been a change in events or conditions that determined the primary economic environment. | ||
| (e) | Foreign Currency | ||
| Foreign currency transactions<br> <br>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 statement of financial position date. The resulting exchange gains and losses are recognized in profit or 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.<br> <br><br> <br>Foreign operations<br> <br>For consolidation purposes, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated to the presentation currency using the exchange rate prevailing at the statement of financial position date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to the presentation currency using the average rates of exchange during the year. All resulting exchange differences are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated in a separate component of shareholders’ equity, described as foreign currency translation adjustment. | |||
| (f) | Financial Instruments | ||
| Financial instruments - classification and measurement<br> <br><br> <br>Financial Assets<br> <br>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. |

| (f) | Financial Instruments (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 cash and cash equivalents 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 marketable security is classified in this category. | |
| Financial Liabilities<br> <br>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 and promissory notes are measured at amortized cost. Warrant liabilities are measured at FVTPL.<br> <br><br> <br>Financial Instruments - Impairment of financial assets<br> <br>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 condensed consolidated interim statements of income (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.<br> <br><br> <br>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. | | | The Company has determined the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based upon appropriate valuation methodologies. At June 30 and March 31, 2020, cash and cash equivalents and marketable security were measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position using Level 1 inputs and warrant liabilities have been measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position at fair value using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. | | |

|---|
| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
|---|
| (g) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|---|---|
| The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. At June 30 and March 31, 2020, the Company had no cash equivalents. | |
| (h) | Marketable Security |
| Marketable security consists of common shares of a publicly-traded company. The marketable security is classified as financial asset at FVTPL. It is recorded at their fair values using quoted market prices at the statement of financial position date. Subsequent revaluation resulting in unrealized gains or losses are recorded in the condensed consolidated interim statements of comprehensive loss. | |
| (i) | Equipment |
| Equipment are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. Historical cost includes the acquisition cost or production cost as well as the costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its use in operations. When equipment includes significant components with different useful lives, they are recorded and depreciated separately. Estimated useful lives are reviewed at the end of each reporting period.<br> <br><br> <br>The Company recognizes in the carrying amount of an item of equipment the cost of replacing part of such an item when that cost is incurred if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss as an expense as incurred. Depreciation is not recorded on equipment that is not yet available for use.<br> <br><br> <br>Depreciation is recognized so as to write off the cost of items of equipment less their residual values over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s equipment are 3 years.<br> <br><br> <br>An item of equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss. | |
| (j) | Intangible Assets |
| Intangible assets consist of costs incurred to acquire patents. Intangible assets are considered finite live assets and recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment. Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Amortization is recorded using the straight-line method and is intended to amortize the intangible assets over their estimated useful lives of ten (10) years. |

|---|
| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
|---|
| (k) | Impairment of Long-lived Assets |
|---|---|
| At the end of each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of long-lived assets to determine whether there is an indication that those assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment charge (if any). The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is determined to be less than its recorded amount, the recorded amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment charge is recognized immediately in the condensed consolidated interim statements of comprehensive loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.<br> <br><br> <br>Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, to a maximum amount equal to the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. | |
| (l) | Provisions |
| 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.<br> <br><br> <br>The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the 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. | |
| (m) | Fair Value of Warrants and Warrant Liabilities |
| Warrants issued are considered derivative liabilities when the currency denomination of the exercise price is different from the functional currency of the Company. Proceeds from issuances by the Company of units consisting of shares and warrants are allocated based on the relative fair value method. The relative fair value method requires an allocation of the net proceeds received based on the pro rata relative fair value of the components. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate fair value at each exercise and period end date. The key assumptions used in the model are the expected future volatility in the price of the Company’s shares and the expected life of the warrants. The impact of changes in key assumptions is described in Note 12. When warrants are classified as liabilities, the updated values of relevant inputs within the Black-Scholes pricing model are used to calculate the fair value of the warrant liabilities at each reporting date. |

| 2. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued) |
|---|
| (n) | Share-based Payments |
|---|---|
| The Company issues stock options under its Share Option Plan described in Note 13. The fair value of stock options granted to employees, consultants, directors and others providing similar services is measured at the grant date using an option pricing model. Subsequently, the fair value of stock options ultimately expected to vest is charged to operations over the vesting period. Stock 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. | |
| (o) | Comprehensive Income or 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 classified as FVTOCI will have revaluation gains and losses included in other comprehensive income until the asset is removed from the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position. Currency translation adjustments for foreign subsidiaries are included in other comprehensive income until disposal of the foreign subsidiary. | |
| (o) | Earnings or Loss Per Share |
| 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 period. 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. | |
| (p) | 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, related parties 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. |
| 3. | New Accounting Pronouncements |
|---|---|
| The following new accounting standards and interpretations have been adopted by the Company as of April 1, 2020. |
| (a) | IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) |
|---|---|
| IAS 1 sets out the overall requirements for financial statements, including how they should be structured, the minimum requirements for their content and overriding concepts such as going concern, the accrual basis of accounting and the current/non-current distinction. The standard requires a complete set of financial statements to comprise a statement of financial position, a statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, a statement of changes in equity and a statement of cash flows. |

|---|---|
| IAS 1 has been revised to incorporate a new definition of “material” and IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors has been revised to refer to this new definition in IAS 1. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. | |
| As of April 1, 2020, the Company has adopted IAS 1 and has concluded that, based on its current operations, the adoption of IAS 1 had no significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements. | |
| (b) | IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (“IAS 8”) |
| IAS 8 is applied in selecting and applying accounting policies, accounting for changes in estimates and reflecting corrections of prior period errors. The standard requires compliance with any specific IAS applying to a transaction, event or condition, and provides guidance on developing accounting policies for other items that result in relevant and reliable information. Changes in accounting policies and corrections of errors are generally retrospectively accounted for, whereas changes in accounting estimates are generally accounted for on a prospective basis. The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2020. | |
| As of April 1, 2020, the Company has adopted IAS 8 and has concluded that, based on its current operations, the adoption of IAS 8 had no significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements. |

| 15. | Management of Capital |
|---|---|
| The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue its business strategies, and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk. The Company considers its capital for this purpose to be shareholders’ equity. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new equity or debt, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. There was no change in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year. |

| 16. | Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management |
|---|---|
| The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, marketable security, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, promissory note and warrant liabilities. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties and promissory note approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Marketable security is recorded at fair value using the quoted market price. Warrant liabilities are at fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model.<br> <br><br> <br>The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain risks, including credit risk, interest rate, liquidity risk and currency risk. |
| (a) | Credit Risk |
|---|---|
| Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s cash is held through a large Canadian financial institution. As such, the Company considers this risk to be minimal. | |
| (b) | Interest Rate Risk |
| Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was not exposed to significant interest rate risk. | |
| (c) | Liquidity Risk |
| Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as outlined in Note 15. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are subject to normal trade terms. The Company believes that the capital sources will be sufficient to cover the expected short and long-term cash requirements by obtaining financing through the issuance of debt or common shares. | |
| (d) | Currency Risk |
| Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s functional and reporting currency is Canadian dollars. The Company is exposed to currency risk through the financial assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than Canadian dollars. The Company currently does not use derivative instruments to hedge its exposure to the currency risk. As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s accounts payable denominated in U.S dollars and Euro are exposed to currency risk. | |
| A 1% strengthening (weakening) of the U.S. dollar and Euro against the Canadian dollar, with other variables unchanged, would have decreased (increased) the net comprehensive loss by approximately $28,800. |
| 17. | Segment Disclosures |
|---|---|
| The Company operates in one reporting segment. The Company is located and operated in Canada and U.S. As of June 30 and March 31, 2020, all the non-current assets were located in Canada. |
