Impact of COVID-19
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19,” has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The extent to which COVID-19 and any other pandemic or public health crisis impacts the Company’s business, affairs, operations, financial condition, liquidity, availability of credit and results of operations will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with any meaningful precision, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 virus and the actions required to contain the COVID-19 virus or remedy its impact, among others.
Change of Fiscal Year-end
Effective in 2021, the Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31 in order to align the Company’s year-end with that of comparative media companies. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated interim financial statements present the statements of financial position as at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

The interim financial statements incorporate the financial information of the Company and the subsidiaries over which the Company has control. An entity is controlled when the Company has the ability to direct the relevant activities of the entity, has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and is able to use its power over the entity to affect its returns from the entity.
The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control as prescribed by IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements. Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the unaudited consolidated interim statements of operations and comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Company’s accounting policies.
All intercompany assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows are eliminated in full on consolidation.
| [d] | Use of Estimates and Judgments |
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, consistent with those disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and twelve months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and described in these financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. These estimates and judgements are consistent with those disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and twelve months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

| 3. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The significant accounting policies used in preparing these financial statements are unchanged from those disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and twelve months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements.
New standards, amendments and interpretations not yet adopted by the Company
The following new accounting standards have been issued but not yet adopted by the Company as at September 30, 2022:
IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”)
In January 2020, the IASB issued Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1). The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the consolidated statements of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current. The amendments include clarifying the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier application permitted. In July 2020, the effective date was deferred to January 1, 2023. The Company is still assessing the impact of adopting these amendments on its financial statements.
In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statements 2, Making Materiality Judgements, to help entities provide accounting policy disclosures that are more useful by replacing the requirement to disclose "significant" accounting policies with a requirement to disclose "material" accounting policies. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on its financial statements and will apply the amendments from the effective date.
IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors (“IAS 8”)
In February 2021, the IASB issued Definition of Accounting Estimates, which amends IAS 8. The amendment replaces the definition of a change in accounting estimates with a definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty”. The amendment provides clarification to help entities to distinguish between accounting policies and accounting estimates.
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Company is still assessing the impact of adopting these amendments on its financial statements.
IAS 12, Income Taxes (“IAS 12”)
In May 2021, the IASB issued Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a single transaction (Amendments to IAS 12). The amendment narrows the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offset temporary differences. As a result, companies will need to recognize a deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability for temporary differences arising on initial recognition of transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations.
The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and are to be applied retrospectively. The Company is still assessing the impact of adopting these amendments on its financial statements.

Chatterbox
On June 14, 2021, the Company acquired 97% of the outstanding common shares of Chatterbox, an influencer marketing company based in India for total consideration of $4,711,063, as part of the Company’s international distribution and strategic partnerships growth strategy. The purchase consideration consisted of cash consideration of $2,630,345, working capital adjustment of $106,837, 2021 earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) adjustments of ($68,103) and $2,552,135 of contingent consideration.
The share acquisition of Chatterbox qualified as a business combination and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the results of Chatterbox have been included in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition, which is the date the Company obtained control.
The allocation of the total consideration to the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as at the date of the acquisition was as follows:
| | |
| | $ |
Cash and cash equivalents | | | 747,785 | |
Trade receivables | | | 256,259 | |
Other receivables | | | 50,718 | |
Customer relationships | | | 298,438 | |
Brand name | | | 619,802 | |
Goodwill | | | 3,231,125 | |
Trade and other payables | | | (260,919 | ) |
Deferred tax liabilities | | | (232,145 | ) |
| | | 4,711,063 | |
Goodwill arising from the acquisition reflects the benefits attributable to synergies, revenue growth and future market development. These benefits were not recognized separately from goodwill because they did not meet the recognition criteria for identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.
During the fiscal period ending December 31, 2021, the Company paid additional consideration related to working capital adjustments of $106,837, with net post acquisition measurement adjustments of $37,352. The contingent consideration is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The contingent consideration fair value is based on the present value of the estimated likely obligation.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a loss on the remeasurement of contingent consideration of $nil and $25,952 respectively, made a payment of $570,311 and as at September 30, 2022, the fair value of the contingent consideration was $2,049,675 (December 31, 2021 of $2,638,912). The Company received an additional 1% of the shares of Chatterbox in connection with the first contingent consideration payment. The Company uses a scenario-based model to independently assess individual earnouts and calculate the fair value of the earnout based on probabilities of success attributable to each individual scenario. The significant assumptions used in making the estimates are revenue growth rate and discount rate. A 10% change in the discount rate used in the valuation of the contingent consideration as at September 30, 2022 would change the valuation of the liability by approximately $88,000.
The Non-Controlling Interest (“NCI”) on the transaction meets the definition of a liability as the Company is obligated to purchase the remaining 2% of common shares. The amount payable is included in contingent consideration and is measured at fair valued through profit or loss.

| [a] | During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company completed the issuance of 41,071,560 units of the Company as part of a private placement at a price of $0.28 per unit. The total gross proceeds from the issuance was $11,500,037. Each unit is comprised of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant exercisable to purchase one common share at a price of $0.45 (a “45 Cent Warrant”). |
Each 45 Cent Warrant is exercisable to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company at a price of $0.45 per 45 Cent Warrant Share until February 25, 2023. The fair value of each 45 Cent Warrant is $0.1837 per warrant, calculated using the Black-Scholes options pricing model with a market price per common share of $0.315 on the date of grant, a risk-free interest rate of 0.32%, an expected annualized volatility of 131% and expected dividend yield of 0%.
Total transaction costs consisted of $2,942,270 in cash and issuance of 3,285,724 compensation options to the agents in connection with the transaction. Each compensation option is exercisable into one unit until February 25, 2023 at a price of $0.28. Total fair value of the compensation options was determined to be $993,666. The fair value of the compensation units was determined using the Black-Scholes options pricing model with a market price per common share of $0.315, a risk-free interest rate of 0.32%, an expected annualized volatility of 131% and expected dividend yield of 0%.
| [b] | On August 16, 2021 the Company completed the issuance of 7,896,875 common shares as part of a non-brokered private placement at a price of $0.32 per share. Total gross proceeds from the issuance was $2,527,000. In addition to the issuance of common shares, the Company also granted the investor a right to subscribe for an additional US $2,000,000 worth of common shares between January 1, 2022 and March 31, 2022 at the greater of $0.42 per share and a discounted price based on the volume weighted-average price of the common shares on the TSXV. The option meets the definition of a derivative liability, and as such was initially recognized at its fair value of $114,532. The fair value of the liability was estimated by utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation. As at December 31, 2021, the Company revalued the liability relating to the derivative, and determined that the fair value was $nil, due to decreases in the trading price of the Company’s common shares on the TSXV. As such, the Company has recognized a gain on revaluation of derivative liability in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss of $114,532 in the nine months ended December 31, 2021. Total transaction costs consisted of $251,577 in cash. On the date of the investment, the Company purchased media credits in the amount of $2,000,000 USD from the investor. Of this amount, $158,072 CAD remains in the prepaid expenses as of September 30, 2022 to be utilized over the remaining fiscal year. |

Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from deposits with banks and outstanding receivables. The Company trades only with recognized, creditworthy third parties. The Company performs credit checks for all customers who wish to trade on credit terms. As at September 30, 2022, two customers represented 20% (December 31, 2021, two customers represented 37%) of the outstanding trade receivable balance. As at September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a provision of $113,638 for expected credit loss (December 31, 2021 - $32,238).
The Company does not hold any collateral as security but mitigates this risk by dealing only with what management believes to be financially sound counterparties and, accordingly, does not anticipate significant loss for non-performance.
The aging of trade receivables is as follows:

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’s exposure to liquidity risk is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional financing to meet its commitments and sustain operations. The Company mitigates liquidity risk by management of working capital, cash flows and the issuance of share capital.
The Company is obligated to the following contractual maturities of undiscounted cash flows:
| | | | | | | | | | | Contractual cash flows | | | | | |
| | | Carrying amount | | | | Total contractual cash flows | | | | Year 1 | | | | Year 2 | | | | Year 3 | | | | Year 4 | | | | Year 5 and beyond | |

Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk.
Foreign Currency risk
Foreign currency risk arises on financial instruments that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in which they are measured. The Company’s primary exposure with respect to foreign currencies is from USD and Indian Rupee denominated cash and other payables. A 1% change in the foreign exchange rates would not result in any significant impact to the financial statements.

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to cash flow interest rate risk as at September 30, 2022.
Other price risk
Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market. The Company is not exposed to other price risks as at September 30, 2022.
Fair values
The carrying values of cash, trade receivables, other receivables and trade and other payables approximate the fair values due to the short-term nature of these items. The risk of material change in fair value is not considered to be significant due to a relatively short-term nature. The carrying value of borrowings approximate the fair value and risk of material change in fair value is not considered to be significant. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to manage this risk.
Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the consolidated statements of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The Company categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Company’s valuation techniques. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest-level input significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
| • | Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices as at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| • | Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
| • | Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs, which are supported by little or no market activity. The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. |
The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market inputs whenever such inputs exist. A financial instrument is classified to the lowest level of the hierarchy for which a significant input has been considered in measuring fair value.
The contingent consideration is recognized as Level 3 (Note 4) and recorded at fair value through profit and loss.
The Company defines its capital as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to build liquidity and shareholders’ equity to ensure that strategic objectives are met. The Company makes every attempt to manage its liquidity to minimize shareholder dilution when possible.
