For the six months ended June 30, 2023
(Expressed in Canadian dollars)
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
BYND Cannasoft Enterprises Inc. (the “Company” or “BYND Cannasoft”) is a Canadian company which was amalgamated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on March 29, 2021. The Company’s registered address is 2264 East 11^th^ Avenue, Vancouver, Canada.
The Company currently operates only in Israel and through its subsidiaries (i) develops, markets and sells a proprietary client relationship management software known as “Benefit CRM” and its new Cannabis CRM platform, (ii) manages the construction, licensing and operation of a cannabis farm and indoor cannabis growing facility, and (iii) develops the EZ-G device, a unique, patent-pending device that, combined with proprietary software (provisional application), regulates the flow of low-concentration CBD oils into the soft tissues of the female sexual organs.
On March 29, 2021, the Company completed the business combination transactions with BYND – Beyond Solutions Ltd. (“BYND”) (note 3). As a result of the business combination transactions, BYND became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. This transaction is accounted for as a reverse asset acquisition of the Company by BYND (“RTO”) (note 3).
On
September 22, 2022, the Company and the former shareholder of Zigi Carmel Initiatives and Investments Ltd. (“ZC”) entered into a share exchange agreement, whereby the Company would acquire 100% ownership interest in ZC from the former shareholder in exchange for 7,920,000 common shares of the Company. The share exchange agreement was executed and fully completed on September 22, 2022
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the statement of financial position classifications used, that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material.

NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
a. Basis of presentation and statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Issues Committee (“IFRIC”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The notes presented in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements include only significant events and transactions occurring since the Company’s last fiscal year end and they do not include all of the information required in the Company’s most recent annual consolidated financial statements. Except as noted below, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the Company’s annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by IASB. There have been no significant changes in judgement or estimates from those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
b. Basis of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and of its wholly owned subsidiaries, BYND, Zigi Carmel and B.Y.B.Y.. B.Y.B.Y is owned directly through BYND and 24% of the shares of B.Y.B.Y. are held by a related party in trust for the Company for the purpose to comply with Israeli Cannabis Laws regarding the ownership of medical cannabis license rights.
A subsidiary is an entity over which the Company has control, directly or indirectly, where control is defined as the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an enterprise so as to obtain benefits from its activities. A subsidiary is consolidated from the date upon which control is acquired by the Company and all intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.
c. Basis of Measurement
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared based on the historical costs, except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”) and assets or liabilities for employee benefits, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
d. Currency of Operation and Currency of Presentation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars. The functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars, and the functional currency of its subsidiaries is the New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”). NIS represents the main economic environment in which the subsidiaries operate.

NOTE2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (continued)
e. Significant estimates and assumptions
The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to use judgment in applying its accounting policies and make estimates and assumptions about reported amounts at the date of the financial statements and in the future. The Company’s management reviews these estimates and underlying assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.
Incometaxes
Provisions for income taxes are made using the best estimate of the amount expected to be paid based on a qualitative assessment of all relevant factors. The Company reviews the adequacy of these income tax provisions at the end of each reporting period. However, it is possible that at some future date an additional liability could result from audits by tax authorities. Where the final outcome of these tax-related matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will affect the tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. Deferred tax assets are recognized when it is determined that the company is likely to recognize their recovery from the generation of taxable income.
Usefullives of property and equipment
Estimates of the useful lives of property and equipment are based on the period over which the assets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives are reviewed annually and are updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence, and legal or other limits on the use of the relevant assets. In addition, the estimation of the useful lives of the relevant assets may be based on internal technical evaluation and experience with similar assets. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in the estimates brought about by changes in the factors mentioned above. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of the equipment would increase the recorded expenses and decrease the non-current assets.
Convertibledebentures
The identification of convertible note components is based on interpretations of the substance of the contractual arrangement and therefore requires judgement from management. The separation of the components affects the initial recognition of the convertible debenture at issuance and the subsequent recognition of interest on the liability component. The determination of the fair value of the liability is also based on a number of assumptions, including contractual future cash flows, discount rates and the presence of any derivative financial instruments.

Other Significant Judgments
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimates, in applying accounting policies. The most significant judgments in applying the Company’s financial statements include:
| ● | the<br> assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether there are events or conditions that may give<br> rise to significant uncertainty; |
|---|---|
| ● | the<br> classification of financial instruments; |
| ● | the<br> assessment of revenue recognition using the five-step approach under IFRS 15 and the collectability of amounts receivable; and |
| ● | the<br> determination of the functional currency of the company. |

September 22, 2022, the Company and the former shareholder of Zigi Carmel Initiatives and Investments Ltd. (“ZC”) entered into a share exchange agreement, whereby the Company would acquire 100% ownership interest in ZC from the former shareholder in exchange for 7,920,000 common shares of BYND. The share exchange agreement was executed and fully completed on September 22, 2022.
The acquisition of ZC has been accounted for as asset acquisition according to IFRS 2 Share-based Payment as the acquired assets and liabilities do not constitute a business under IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The transaction price of the acquisition was measured according to the fair value of the common shares given in consideration for the assets and liabilities assumed from the acquisition, with equity increased by the corresponding amount equal to the total fair value of the common shares given. As a result, the acquisition was recorded with the consideration as detailed in the table below:
SCHEDULE OF CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION
| Consideration transferred: | |
|---|---|
| Fair value of shares retained by former BYND Cannasoft shareholders | |
| Forgiveness of BYND debt | |
| Value allocated to shares issued (7,920,000 shares at $5.40 per share) | 42,768,000 |

| Amount receivable | |
| Investments | 137,811 |

| Shareholder loan | (137,811 |
| Fair value of assets and liabilities | 42,768,000 |
All values are in US Dollars.
The intangible asset acquired in the acquisition of ZC is attributed to 2 patents pending for a therapeutic device (the “EZ-G” device) owned by ZC. The company has determined that the patents pending shall not be amortized until they are approved and then will be amortized over the course of their life.

NOTE3 – ACQUISITIONS (continued)
Acquisitionof B.Y.B.Y.
On
October 1, 2020, BYND and the former shareholders of B.Y.B.Y. entered into a share exchange agreement, whereby BYND would acquire 74% ownership interest in B.Y.B.Y from the former shareholders in exchange for 54.58% ownership interest in BYND. One of the former shareholders would hold the remaining 26% ownership interest in B.Y.B.Y. in trust for BYND, for the purpose to comply with Israeli Cannabis Laws regarding the ownership of medical cannabis license rights. The share exchange agreement was executed and held in escrow, and the share exchange was fully completed on March 29, 2021.
The acquisition of B.Y.B.Y. has been accounted for as asset acquisition according to IFRS 2 Share-based Payment as the acquired assets and liabilities do not constitute a business under IFRS 3 Business Combinations. The fair value of the common shares given in consideration were not readily determinable, the transaction price of the acquisition was measured by the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed from the acquisition, with equity increased by the corresponding amount equal to the total fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed. As a result, the acquisition was recorded with the consideration as detailed in the table below:
SCHEDULE OF CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION
| Consideration transferred: | |
|---|---|
| Value allocated to 9,832,495 shares issued | 840,941 |
| Fair value of assets and liabilities acquired: | |
| Amount receivable | 3,759 |
| Intangible asset | 850,000 |
| Trade payable and other liabilities | (12,818 |
| Fair value of assets<br> and liabilities | 840,941 |
All values are in US Dollars.
The intangible asset acquired in the acquisition of B.Y.B.Y. is attributed to the primary growing license for medical cannabis in Israel held by B.Y.B.Y.. The company has determined that the license shall not be amortized, but rather will be tested for impairment at least annually or when there are any further indicators of impairment.

NOTE3 – ACQUISITIONS (continued)
ReverseTakeover of BYND Cannasoft (continued)
On
March 29, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 18,015,883 common shares to BYND shareholders in consideration for all the 1,761 shares issued and outstanding of BYND. Upon completion of the Share Exchange, BYND became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company continued to carry out the business operations of BYND.
As a result of the Share Exchange, BYND is deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes (“Reverse Takeover”) and therefore its assets, liabilities and operations are included in the consolidated interim financial statements at their historical carrying value, with the operations of the Company being included from March 29, 2021, the closing date of the Reverse Takeover, and onwards.
At the time of the reverse takeover, the Company did not constitute a business as defined under IFRS 3 Business Combination; therefore, the Reverse Takeover of the Company by BYND is accounted for under IFRS 2 Share-based Payments. The transaction price of the acquisition was measured by reference to the fair value of the shares issued in the acquisition because the fair value of the listing service BYND received could not be reliably measured. As a result, the consideration was first allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities based on their fair values, and the difference between the consideration given to acquire the Company and the fair values of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired by BYND is recorded as a listing expense to profit and loss. The fair value of the consideration issued to acquire the Company is as follows:
SCHEDULE OF CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION
| Consideration transferred: | |
|---|---|
| Fair value of shares retained by former BYND Cannasoft shareholders (6,269,117 shares at $0.82 per share) | 5,140,676 |
| Forgiveness of BYND debt | (276,210 |
| Total consideration transferred | 4,864,466 |

| Trade payable and other liabilities | (24,069 |

(“BYND Cannasoft” or the “Company”) for the six month period ended June 30, 2023. The information contained in this MD&A is current to August 7, 2023.
The preparation of the Company’s financial statements are in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and requires management to make assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses in addition to the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reporting amounts. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CAUTIONARYNOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
This MD&A contains forward-looking statements that include risks and uncertainties that are disclosed under the section “RiskManagement”. Other factors that could affect actual results are uncertainties pertaining to government regulations, both domestic as well as foreign, and the changes within the capital markets.
This MD&A contains certain statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements include but are not limited to, statements regarding future anticipated business developments and the timing thereof, regulatory compliance, sufficiency of working capital, and business and financing plans. Although the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as: believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, postulate and similar expressions, or which by their nature refer to future events. The Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements by the Company are not guarantees of future performance, and that actual results may differ materially from those in forward looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, the Company’s ability to continue its projected growth, to raise the necessary capital or to be fully able to implement its business strategies.
GOINGCONCERN
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Over the last 3 years, BYND Israel has been developing the next generation of its Benefit CRM Software (our “New CRM Platform”), which will be cloud based and will include many new features and enhancements.

Revenue

PROPOSEDTRANSACTIONS

CHANGESIN OR ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
FINANCIALINSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments include cash, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values because of the short term to maturity of these instruments.
As at June 30, 2023 the Company had $1,375,473 in current assets and $354,303 in current liabilities resulting in a working capital of $1,021,170.
RISKMANAGEMENT
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of risks. The Company’s Directors approve and monitor the risk management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:
| 8 |
| --- |
CreditRisk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of cash and amounts receivable.
For amounts due from customers, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, and monitors the receivable balance and the payments made in order to determine if an allowance for estimated credit losses is required. When determining the allowance for estimated credit losses the Company will consider historical experience with the customer, current market and industry conditions and any specific collection issues.
InterestRate Risk
Interest Rate risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Loans payable include variable interest rates; however, the Company does not believe it is exposed to material interest rate risk.
ForeignExchange Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as the Company has a surplus of financial assets over financial liabilities denominated in USD as of June 30, 2023, consisting of cash in the sum of $332,267. As of June 30, 2023 a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the New Israeli Shekel would have resulted in an approximate $16,613 decrease or increase, respectively, in total pre-tax profit.
LiquidityRisk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated with financial instruments. Total amount of the Company’s financial liabilities according to the contractual conditions in non-capitalized amounts (including interest payments) as at June 30, 2023 for the next 5 years and over is $393,523. To secure the additional capital necessary to pursue its plans, the Company may have to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing.
LimitedFinancial Resources Risk
The Company has limited financial resources and operating revenues and its ability to move forward with its plans to develop its Cannabis Farm are dependent upon management’s success in raising additional capital. Failure to obtain additional financing could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of the development of its Cannabis Farm and the Company may become unable to carry out its stated business objectives.
While the Company has been successful until now, in obtaining financing from the capital markets there can be no assurance that the capital markets will remain favorable in the future, and/or that the Company will be able to raise the financing needed to pursue its business objectives on favorable terms, or at all. Restrictions on the Company’s ability to finance could have a materially adverse outcome on the Company and its securities, and its ability to continue as a going concern.
MarketRisk
The Company’s common shares trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange and the trading value thereof is determined by the evaluations, perceptions and sentiments of both individual investors and the investment community taken as a whole. Such evaluations, perceptions and sentiments are subject to change, both in short term time horizons and longer-term time horizons. An adverse change in investor evaluations, perceptions and sentiments could have a material adverse outcome on the Company and its securities.

BusinessRisks relating to our CRM Business
| ● | Defects<br> or disruptions in our planned cloud-based New CRM Platform and New Cannabis CRM Platform services could diminish demand for our services<br> and subject us to substantial liability. |
|---|---|
| ● | Interruptions<br> or delays in service from our third-party data center hosting facilities could impair the delivery of our service and harm our business. |
| ● | If<br> we experience significant fluctuations in our rate of anticipated growth and fail to balance our expenses with our revenue forecasts,<br> our results could be harmed. |
| ● | We<br> may in the future be sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights. |

| ● | The<br> market for our technology delivery model and enterprise cloud computing application services is immature and volatile, and if it<br> develops more slowly than we expect, our business could be harmed. |
| ● | We<br> are currently dependent on one of our clients for the majority of current revenues and any changes to that relationship could have<br> a significant impact on future revenues. |
BusinessRisks relating to our proposed Cannabis Business
| ● | The<br> Company does not yet have sufficient financial resources to complete construction of the Cannabis Farm and there is no guarantee<br> that we will be able to raise the necessary capital, either through debt or equity financing, or in either case, on favorable terms. |
|---|---|
| ● | Our<br> Cannabis Farm business will be dependent on our obtaining certain licences and certain GSP and GAP good practice certifications,<br> which if not maintained in good standing, may prevent us from being able to carry on or expand our operations. |
| ● | We<br> will face risks inherent in an agricultural business, and an inability to grow crops successfully will interrupt our business activities. |
| ● | We<br> will be relying on one key production facility, and disruption of operations at this facility could significantly interfere with<br> our ability to continue our product testing, development and production activities. |
| ● | We<br> will rely on key components of our production and distribution process, such as energy and third-party producers and distributors,<br> and a disruption in the availability of those key components, or in increase in their cost, could adversely impact our business. |
| ● | Manufacturing<br> difficulties, disruptions or delays could limit supply of our products and limit our product sales. Producing cannabis products is<br> difficult, complex and highly regulated. |
| ● | We<br> are subject to environmental, health and safety regulations and risks, which may subject us to liability under environmental laws. |
| ● | We<br> are dependent on the success of our quality control systems, which may fail, and cause a disruption of our business and operations. |
| ● | The<br> success of our branded cannabis products business will depend on the success of the cannabis product candidates we develop. To date,<br> we have not developed any cannabis products, and we do not expect to generate revenue from any cannabis products that we develop<br> until at least Q4 2023. |
| ● | Unfavorable<br> publicity or unfavorable consumer perception of us or cannabis generally may constrain our sales and revenue. |

DisclosureControls and Procedures
The Company’s directors and officers are responsible for designing internal controls over financial reporting in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. The design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was assessed as of the date of this MD&A.
Based on this assessment, it was determined that certain weaknesses existed in internal controls over financial reporting. As indicative of many small companies, the lack of segregation of duties and effective risk assessment were identified as areas where weaknesses existed. The existence of these weaknesses is to be compensated for by senior management monitoring, which exists. The officers will continue to monitor very closely all financial activities of the Company and increase the level of supervision in key areas. It is important to note that this issue would also require the Company to hire additional staff in order to provide greater segregation of duties. Since the increased costs of such hiring could threaten the Company’s financial viability, management has chosen to disclose the potential risk in its filings and proceed with increased staffing only when the budgets and work load will enable the action.

The Company has attempted to mitigate these weaknesses, through a combination of extensive and detailed review by the Company’s directors and officers, of the financial reports, the integrity and reputation of accounting personnel, and candid discussion of those risks.
