Notes to the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
As at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021
(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars except for share and per share amounts)
1 | Nature of operations and going concern |
IMV Inc. (the “Corporation” or “IMV”) is, through its 100% owned subsidiaries, a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company advancing a portfolio of therapies based on the Company’s immune-educating platform, DPX®. Through a differentiated mechanism of action, the DPX platform delivers instruction to the immune system to generate a specific, robust, and persistent immune response. IMV’s lead candidate, maveropepimut-S (MVP-S), delivers antigenic peptides from survivin, a well-recognized cancer antigen commonly overexpressed in advanced cancers. MVP-S treatment has been well tolerated and has demonstrated defined clinical benefit in multiple cancer indications as well as the activation of a targeted and sustained, survivin-specific anti-tumor immune response. MVP-S is currently being evaluated in clinical trials for hematologic and solid cancers, including Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma as well as ovarian, bladder and breast cancers. The Corporation has one reportable and geographic segment. Incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act and domiciled in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada the shares of the Corporation are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “IMV”. The Corporation’s principal place of business is 130 Eileen Stubbs Avenue, Suite 19, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada and it also has corporate offices in Cambridge, MA and Quebec, QC.
These financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due. Since the Corporation’s inception, the Corporation’s operations have been financed through the sale of shares, issuance of debt, revenue from subcontracts, interest income on funds available for investment, government assistance and income tax credits. The Corporation has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $175,335 as at June 30, 2022.
The ability of the Corporation to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional financing through equity and non-dilutive funding and partnerships. There can be no assurance that the Corporation will have sufficient capital to fund its ongoing operations, develop or commercialize any products without future financings. These material uncertainties cast substantial doubt as to the Corporation’s ability to meet its obligations as they come due and, accordingly, the appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. The Corporation is currently pursuing financing alternatives that may include equity, debt, and non-dilutive financing alternatives including co-development through potential collaborations, strategic partnerships or other transactions with third parties, and merger and acquisition opportunities. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If the Corporation is unable to obtain additional financing when required, the Corporation may have to substantially reduce or eliminate planned expenditures or the Corporation may be unable to continue operations.
The Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to fund its research and development programs and defend its patent rights. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statements of financial position classifications that would be necessary if the Corporation 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.

| 1 | Nature of operations and going concern (continued) |
An outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, identified as “COVID-19”, was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. To date, COVID-19 has not had a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition, liquidity or longer-term strategic development and commercialization plans. The extent to which COVID-19 may cause more significant disruptions to IMV’s business and greater impacts to results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the duration and severity of outbreaks, including potential future waves or cycles, and the effectiveness of actions to contain and treat COVID-19. The Corporation cannot predict the duration, scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, including to ongoing and planned clinical studies and regulatory approval prospects. Further prolonged shutdowns or other business interruptions could result in material and negative effects to the Corporation’s ability to conduct its business in the manner and on the timelines currently planned, which could have a material adverse impact on IMV’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and the Corporation will continue to monitor the effects of COVID-19 on its business.
The Corporation prepares its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Acounting Standards (IAS) 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as set out in the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Handbook – Accounting Part I, which incorporates International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on August 10, 2022.

| 4 | Long-term debt (continued) |
On June 22, 2022, following the achievement of a pre-determined milestone; activation of it’s phase 2B AVALON trial in plantinum-resistant ovarian cancer, the Corporation borrowed the remaining $10,000 under the Venture
Loan, and the number of shares for which the attached warrants are exercisable increased by 113,636, to a total of 568,180.
Upon the achievement of a second pre-determined milestone, the start date for the repayment of principal can be deferred for 6 months, with no extension of maturity. Transaction costs associated with the venture loan were $377 of which, $224 has been allocated to the debt component, $4 to the warrants and $149 to the loan commitment at inception.
Monthly pro rata principal repayments start after 24 months from loan inception.
The Corporation may, at its option, at any time, prepay all the outstanding Venture Loan by simultaneously paying to the lenders an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid interest, the outstanding principal balance and the final payments of the Venture Loan plus an amount equal to:
| a) | 3% in the 18 first months of the loan; |
| b) | 2% in the months 19 to 30 of the loan; |
| c) | 1% in the last 12 months of the loan (31 to 42). |
The prepayment option is an embedded derivative, but has insignificant value on the issuance date and as at June 30, 2022.
The Venture Loan has a priority security interest in all assets of IMV, excluding intellectual property. IMV has entered into a negative pledge agreement regarding intellectual property with the lenders.
The Corporation is in compliance with its debt covenants.
In conjunction with the Venture Loan with Horizon Technology Finance Corporation and Powerscourt Investments XXV, on December 17, 2021, six warrants have been issued to the lenders. These warrants allowed the holder to purchase 454,544 common shares at an exercise price of $1.32. On June 22, 2022, in connection with the draw down of the remaining of $10,000 under the Venture Loan, the number of shares for which these warrants are exerciseable increased to 568,180 with no change in exercise price. The warrants can be exercised at any moment from grant date to the 10 year anniversary and will be automatically exercised on expiration date. The holder can choose to exercise the warrant with a payment to the Corporation or exercise on a net issuance basis (cashless). This last feature breaches the fixed-for-fixed criterion, therefore the warrants are classified as financial liability and will be remeasured at FVTPL at each reporting period.

Fair value of financial instruments
Financial instruments are defined as a contractual right or obligation to receive or deliver cash on another financial asset. The following table sets out the approximate fair values of financial instruments as at the consolidated statements of financial position date with relevant comparatives:
| | | June 30, 2022 | | | December 31, 2021 | |
| | | Carrying value $ | | | Fair value $ | | | Carrying value $ | | | Fair value $ | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | | | 31,134 | | | | 31,134 | | | | 38,616 | | | | 38,616 | |
| Amounts receivable | | | 520 | | | | 520 | | | | 10 | | | | 10 | |
| Accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities | | | 8,228 | | | | 8,228 | | | | 8,589 | | | | 8,589 | |
| Warrant liabilities | | | 94 | | | | 94 | | | | 318 | | | | 318 | |
| Long-term debt | | | 28,212 | | | | 28,212 | | | | 18,002 | | | | 18,002 | |
Assets and liabilities, such as commodity taxes, that are not contractual and that arise as a result of statutory requirements imposed by governments, do not meet the definition of financial assets or financial liabilities and are, therefore, excluded from amounts receivable and accounts payable.
Fair value of items, which are short-term in nature, have been deemed to approximate their carrying value. The above noted fair values, presented for information only, reflect conditions that existed only as at June 30, 2022, and do not necessarily reflect future value or amounts which the Corporation might receive if it were to sell some or all of its assets to a willing buyer in a free and open market.
The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the expected interest rates for similar borrowings by the Corporation at the consolidated statements of financial position dates. For the periods presented, the fair value is estimated to be equal to the carrying amount.
