NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Vicinity Motor Corp. (“Vicinity”, “VMC” or the “Company”) is a Canadian company that is a North American supplier of electric vehicles for both public and commercial enterprise use. The Company leverages a dealer network and relationships with manufacturing partners to supply its flagship electric, compressed natural gas (“CNG”) and clean-diesel Vicinity buses and the VMC 1200 class 3 electric truck. VMC (formerly Grande West Transportation Group) was incorporated on December 4, 2012 under the laws of British Columbia. The Company conducts its active operations in Canada through its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Vicinity Motor (Bus) Corp. which was incorporated on September 2, 2008 under the laws of British Columbia. The Company also conducts its active operations in the U.S. through a wholly owned subsidiary, Vicinity Motor (Bus) USA Corp., incorporated on April 8, 2014 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company’s head office is located at 3168 262^nd Street, Aldergrove, British Columbia.

In February 2023, the Company obtained $30 million in credit commitments from Royal Bank of Canada and Export Development Canada to fund production of the Company’s VMC 1200 class 3 electric trucks. As at March 31, 2024, $17,255 has been drawn on this facility (Note 5). The Company also has an asset-based lending facility (ABL) from Royal Bank of Canada for C$10 million. As at March 31, 2024, $738 has been drawn on this facility (Note 5). Both the truck and ABL facilities are renewable on a yearly basis at the discretion of the lender. The facilities were initially up for renewal on April 16, 2024, which subsequent to March 31, 2024, was further extended with the facilities next set to be renewed, at the discretion of the lender, on July 16, 2024 (Note 5). The Company also has convertible debt of C$4 million plus interest that matures September 27, 2024 (Note 8) and unsecured debentures of C$11,948 (Note 7) which subsequent to March 31, 2024, was amended to be repayable with C$87 principal payments paid in April and C$87 due in July of 2024, with the remaining principal and all accrued interest due on October 4, 2024 (Note 15).

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, meaning the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of operations for at least twelve months from March 31, 2024.

The Company’s operations are dependent upon its ability to raise capital and generate positive cash flows from operating activities. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had negative working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $5,033 compared to negative working capital of $2,862 as at December 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,720 (March 31, 2023: $2,436) and provided cash in operations of $450 (March 31, 2023: used cash of $3,555). Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2024, totalled $13,234 (March 31, 2023: $2,649). The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent on the renewal of existing credit facilities, future cash flows from operations consistent with Company forecasts, and obtaining necessary financing to fund ongoing operations (Note 15). The Company’s ability to achieve its business objectives is subject to material uncertainty which may raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to address this material uncertainty by selling vehicles in inventory and delivering on the Company’s existing purchase orders, collecting accounts receivable, utilizing the Company’s credit facilities and, from time to time, and at its discretion, selling common shares. There can be no assurance that these endeavours will be successful.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments in the carrying values of the assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet 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.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023

(Unaudited, In thousands of US dollars, except for per share amounts)

BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

a) Statement of compliance

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), have been omitted or condensed. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on May 10, 2024.

b) Basis of measurement

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments carried at fair value.

c) Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and related notes. These judgments and estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances, having regard to previous experience, but actual results may differ materially from the amounts included in the consolidated financial statements.

Estimates that have a risk of resulting in material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next year are summarized below:

Impairment assessment of intangible assets:

The determination of the recoverable amount of intangible assets involves significant estimates and assumptions. Intangible assets are tested for possible impairment when there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. Impairment is determined by comparing the recoverable amount of such intangible assets with their carrying values. Any impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the intangible asset’s carrying value exceeds its recoverable amount within earnings, as appropriate.

ii.

Fair value of embedded derivatives:

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company entered into a convertible debt arrangement and accordingly the following are new estimates and judgements. The Company is required to determine the fair value of embedded derivatives. Fair value of embedded derivatives are determined using valuation techniques and require estimates as at the reporting period date as the financial instruments are not traded in an active market as disclosed in Note 8.

iii.

Inventory net realizable value:

The Company estimates net realizable value of inventory for its vehicles and spare parts. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less any costs to complete and sell the product. An allowance for obsolete, slow-moving or defective inventory is made when necessary.

Three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023

(Unaudited, In thousands of US dollars, except for per share amounts)

iv.

The determination of provision for warranty cost:

The Company offers warranties on the buses and trucks it sells. The Company estimates the provision for future warranty claims based on historical warranty claim information, as well as recent trends that might suggest the past results may differ from future warranty claims. The Company does not have a long history of estimating warranty provisions. In addition, the items covered by the Company’s warranty may be subject to interpretation because the warranty items are not specific in all cases, and the warranty demands made by different customers may also vary.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

d) New standards implemented

In September 2022, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 16, Leases (IFRS 16) related to sale leaseback transactions for lessees. The amendments require that subsequent remeasurement of the lease liability does not result in a gain or loss that relates to the right of use asset the lessee retains. The amendments are effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted. There was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements on adoption.

In October 2022, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements, which specifies that covenants whose compliance is assessed after the reporting date do not affect the classification. There was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements on adoption.

New standard issued

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements to improve reporting of financial performance and presentation of assets, liabilities, equity, income and expenses. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 and applies for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, requiring retrospective application. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new standard.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023

(Unaudited, In thousands of US dollars, except for per share amounts)

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $7,656 as the cost of inventory included as an expense in cost of sales (March 31, 2023: $1,690).

CREDIT FACILITY

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility agreement with Royal Bank of Canada and Export Development Canada for a maximum amount of C$20 million based on the value of certain Company assets. The terms of the agreement were amended on October 23, 2020, renewing the asset-based lending (ABL) facility for a three-year term. The credit facility bears interest at a rate of 0.75% - 1% plus Canadian prime rate for loans denominated in Canadian dollars and 0.75% - 1% plus US prime rate for loans denominated in US dollars. The facility is secured by way of a general security agreement over all assets of the Company.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the terms of the agreement were amended to reduce the ABL facility to C$10M for use with its bus orders. The facility was due to initially expire on February 16, 2024, and the Company received a 60 day extension during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the facility was to expire on April 16, 2024. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the Company received a further extension with the facility set to be renewed, at the discretion of the lender, on July 16, 2024. The facility may be renewed on a yearly basis at the discretion of the lender.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company had drawn $738 on this facility (December 31, 2023: $nil). Per the terms of the ABL credit facility, the Company must maintain a consolidated 12-month rolling fixed charge coverage ratio if the Company borrows over 75% of the available facility. As at March 31, 2024, the Company has not borrowed over 75% of its availability.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company obtained $30M in credit commitments from Royal Bank of Canada and Export Development Canada to fund production of the Company’s VMC 1200 class 3 electric trucks. The credit facility can be used for 100% of eligible production costs on the trucks, excluding labor and overhead from the Company’s assembly plants. The facility was due to initially expire on February 16, 2024, and the Company received a 60 day extension during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the facility was to expire on April 16, 2024. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the Company received a further extension with the facility set to be renewed, at the discretion of the lender, on July 16, 2024. The facility may be renewed on a yearly basis at the discretion of the lender.

The facility has an interest rate of prime plus 2% and will be secured by existing assets of the Company.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company had drawn $17,255 on this facility (December 31, 2023: $15,976). Per the terms of the credit facility, the Company must maintain minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) target and certain production targets. The facility is repaid as payments for units are received.

Both facilities are under one agreement and this agreement was amended in September and December of 2023 to amend the covenants. As at March 31, 2024, the Company is in compliance with all amended covenants.

PROVISION FOR WARRANTY COST

The Company provides bumper to bumper warranty coverage for the first two years on specified components, with the exception of normal wear and tear.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded warranty expense of $293

(March 31, 2023 - $49) as part of its cost of sales in connection with sales completed during the year. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, $113 of warranty costs (March 31, 2023 - $150) have been incurred against the provision. Change in estimate of the warranty provision relates to re-assessment of the warranty provision compared to the actual warranty claims applied.

On October 5, 2021, the Company issued C$10.3 million in unsecured debentures with a maturity 12 months from the date of issue. On June 15, 2022, the maturity date of the debentures was extended to October 4, 2023, with the extension being treated as a modification that did not require derecognition of the original debt. As a result, a gain of $803 on modification of debt was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022. In connection with the extension, the Company cancelled 412,000 warrants from the previous agreement. On extension the Company issued 1,000,000 warrants to purchase common shares at an exercise price of C$2.25 per share. The value of these warrants was incorporated in the $803 gain on modification of debt. On September 25, 2023, the maturity date of the debentures was extended with C$1,648 of accrued interest being added to the principal with the new principal amount being C$11,948. The facility is repayable with 25% (C$2,987) principal payments due in April and July of 2024, with the remainder and interest payable due on October 4, 2024. As a result, a gain of $492 on modification of debt was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2023. In connection with the extension, the Company cancelled 1,000,000 warrants from the previous agreement. On extension the Company issued 1,500,000 warrants to purchase common shares at an exercise price of C$1.33 per share. The value of these warrants was incorporated in the $492 gain on modification of debt. The warrants expire on October 4, 2024. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the facility was amended with the principal of C$87 paid in April and C$87 due in July of 2024, with the remaining principal and all accrued interest due on October 4, 2024.

As a result of the extension on September 25, 2023, the interest rate increased from 8% to 13% annual interest paid at maturity. Borrowing costs of $449 were recorded on June 15, 2022, and an additional $240 in borrowing costs on extension on September 25, 2023; the debt has an effective interest rate of 24%.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company incurred $539 in interest expense

(March 31, 2023 - $452) on this loan, of which $563 is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at March 31, 2024 (March 31, 2023 - $915).

CONVERTIBLE DEBT

On March 27, 2023, the Corporation completed a private placement of unsecured convertible debentures for gross proceeds of C$4 million. The convertible debentures bear interest at 15% per annum, and mature 18 months from the closing date. Interest payments on the convertible debentures are due on the twelve-month anniversary of the maturity date of September 27, 2024.

Each convertible debenture is convertible at the holder’s option into Units at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price of C$1.45 per Unit. Upon conversion, each Unit will consist of one Common Share and 0.2 of a Warrant. Each Warrant is exercisable into a Warrant Share at an exercise price of C$1.45 for a period of thirty-six months following the initial debenture closing date. The convertible debenture is redeemable at the Company’s option at any time after 12 months, with 30 days notice, at a redemption price of 105% of the principal, payable in cash, plus any accrued interest up to the maturity date.

The unsecured convertible debentures represent financial instruments that include host debentures accounted for at amortized cost and embedded derivatives related to the conversion feature and redemption option, which are separated from the convertible debentures and accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of loss.

SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

10.4 Deferred Share Units

Pursuant to the Company’s Deferred Share Unit (“DSU”) Incentive Plan approved by the board of directors of the Company on July 8, 2018, deferred stock units to acquire common shares of the Company may be granted to specified board members of the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of the plan.

Each DSU entitles the participant to receive one common share upon vesting. DSUs vest into common shares on the board members’ separation date from the board of directors. DSUs track the value of the underlying common shares, but do not entitle the recipient to the underlying common shares until such DSUs vest, nor do they entitle a holder to exercise voting rights or any other rights attached to ownership or control of the common shares, until the DSU vests and the DSU participant receives common shares.

A summary of the Company’s DSUs are as follows:

Schedule of deferred share units
	Number of DSUs

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair values

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable, the credit facility, short-term loans and convertible debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable, the credit facility, and short-term loans approximate fair value due to their short term nature. The embedded derivatives related to the convertible debt are the only instruments measured at fair value through profit and loss in accordance with IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments. The fair value of the host debenture as at March 31, 2024 is $2,620 if it was a standalone instrument.

The following table summarizes the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments:

Schedule of disclosure of financial instruments
	March 31, 2024			December 31, 2023
	$			$
Assets:
Measured at amortized cost (i)		11,845			7,625
Liabilities:
Amortized cost (ii)		53,855			47,663
Fair value through P&L (iii)		(45	)		159

(i) Cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other receivables

(ii) Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, current loans, and lease obligations.

(iii) Embedded derivatives related to convertible debt (only financial instrument carried at fair value)

The Company classifies its fair value measurements in accordance with the three-level fair value hierarchy. The measurement is classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices), and

Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data

The Company valued the derivatives associated with the convertible debt (iii) as a level 3 instrument. The Company used the binomial tree method to determine the fair value of the embedded derivatives attributed to the convertible debt (Note 8).
