SIYATA MOBILE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Nature of operations and going concern

 

Siyata Mobile Inc. and Subsidiaries (“Siyata” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act, British Columbia on October 15, 1986. The Company’s shares are listed on NASDAQ under the symbol SYTA. The Company’s warrants issued on September 29, 2020, are traded under the symbol SYTAW. The Company’s principal activity is the sale of vehicle-mounted, cellular-based communications platforms over advanced 4G mobile networks and cellular booster systems. The registered and records office is located at 2200 - 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 3E8.

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) with the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than a process of forced liquidation. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company incurred a net loss of $8,710,945 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and, as of that date, the Company’s total deficit was $71,230,357. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the success of the Company’s sale of inventory, the existing cash flows, and the ability of the Company to obtain additional debt or equity financing, all of which are uncertain.

 

These material uncertainties raise substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Basis of presentation

 

Statement of compliance

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC).

 

Basis of consolidation and presentation

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s year ended December 31, 2021 financial statements filed on April 29, 2022 as a Form 20-F (the “2021 Form 20-F”).

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct wholly-owned subsidiaries:

2. Basis of presentation (continued)

 

Foreign currency translation

 

Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Company are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”) and has been determined for each entity within the Company. The functional currency of Siyata Mobile Inc. is the USD which is also the functional currency of all its subsidiaries, except Signifi Mobile Inc. whose functional currency is Canadian dollars. The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.

 

Assets and liabilities of entities with a functional currency other than the USD are translated into USD at period-end exchange rates. Income and expenses, and cash flows are translated into USD using the average exchange rate.

 

Transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency are translated at the exchange rates in effect on the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange in effect as at the statement of financial position date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the time of the acquisition of the assets or assumption of the liabilities. Foreign currency differences arising on translation are recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

 

The preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

 

Significant judgments, estimates, and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those as set out in the 2021 Form 20-F.

 

3. Significant accounting policies

 

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are those as set out in the 2021 Form 20-F.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all applicable IFRS standards recently issued by the IASB. There are no upcoming accounting pronouncements expected to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

4. Acquisition of Clear RF LLC

 

On March 31, 2021, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding units of Clear RF LLC (“ClearRF”). In consideration, the Company paid cash of $155,015 and issued 23,949 common shares at a value of $194,985. As a further consideration, the Company made the additional following payments:

 

On March 31, 2022, paid $155,015 in cash and;

 

On March 31, 2022, issued common shares of the Company valued at $190,095.

 

No further incentives were earned by the vendors other than the amounts outlined above.

 

This transaction qualifies as a business combination and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. To account for the transaction, the Company has determined the fair value of the assets and liabilities of ClearRF at the date of the acquisition and a purchase price allocation. These fair value assessments require management to make significant estimates and assumptions as well as apply judgment in selecting the appropriate valuation techniques.

4. Acquisition of Clear RF LLC (continued)

 

The acquisition of ClearRF is consistent with the Company’s corporate growth strategy to continue to acquire innovative patented products in the cellular booster market. The Company plans to leverage ClearRF’s machine-to-machine booster technology in order to build relationships and facilitate sales of the cellular booster suite of products.

 

The aggregate amount of the total acquisition consideration is $700,000, comprised as follows:

 

Consideration  Note  Fair Value 
Cash     $155,015 
Fair value of 23,949 shares at $8.14 per share  (i)   194,985 
Future purchase consideration  (ii)   350,000 
Total consideration     $700,000 

 

(i)The fair value of the shares issued was determined by multiplying the number shares issued by the share price of the Company on March 31, 2021.

 

(ii)Future consideration represents the expected future payments of cash and common shares. Since the balance of the shares and the cash is due within one year, the Company did not discount the future purchase consideration for the time value of money. This future consideration obligation was fully paid on March 30, 2022.

 

The purchase price was allocated as follows:

 

Purchase Price Allocation  Fair Value 
Purchase price  $700,000 
Less: Net assets acquired     
Net identifiable tangible assets   127,106 
Net identifiable intangible assets   522,637 
Goodwill  $50,257 

 

The net identifiable intangible asset consists of two patents acquired on the acquisition that is valued at $122,717 plus a supplier relationship valued at $399,920. These intangibles assets are recorded at cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of four years with no residual value. The Company incurred costs related to the acquisition totaling $79,069 in 2021 to complete the acquisition which was recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

 

On December 31, 2021, the Company had an independent impairment in value report prepared for its intangibles and goodwill. The Company, based on this report, recognized an impairment of intangible assets for the full amount of ClearRF’s supplier relationship of $399,920 in 2021 because of a worldwide component and supply chain shortfall. The Company also recognized a goodwill impairment for the full value of ClearRF’s goodwill in the amount of $50,257 in 2021.

5. Trade and other receivables (continued)

 

Trade receivables

 

In accordance with the Company’s accounting policy to use the expected credit loss model, the Company utilizes the expedited method where trade receivables are provided for based on their aging, as well as providing for specified balances deemed non-collectible. At September 30, 2022, the Company concluded that a bad debt provision of $1,028,000 was to be recognized (December 31, 2021 - $1,090,066). Bad debts in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $63,285, respectively (September 30, 2021 - $548,403).

 

Siyata Mobile Israel (“SMI”) had a factoring agreement on its trade receivables, whereby invoices are fully assigned to a funding entity in return for 80%-85% of the total sale to be paid to SMI by the funding entity in advance. The remaining 15-20% was paid to SMI when the funding entity received payment from the customers. At September 30, 2022, the Company has removed all liens and does not have this credit facility. The total amount borrowed by the Company extended by this funding entity and included in the bank loan was $0 (December 31, 2021 - $27,000).

 

Siyata Mobile Inc. has provided the North American receivables as collateral for the outstanding convertible promissory notes as outlined Note 13. The carrying amount of the North American trade and other receivables on September 30, 2022 is $873,367 (December 31, 2021 - $569,068).

 

Taxes receivable

 

The Company has subsidiaries that are located in jurisdictions that have a sales tax system of payments and credits for sales taxes (VAT and GST/QST). When the Company bills a customer in the same jurisdiction, the Company is required to charge sales tax to the customer on the invoice billed. The Company also pays sales taxes on certain third-party purchases (who add the sales tax to their invoices) and pays sales tax on the import of certain types of merchandise. The Company must remit the net amount of the sales taxes charged to customers, less any sales taxes invoiced to the Company and net of any sales taxes paid on imported goods. The Company may defer the refunds if the Company anticipates future sales taxes to be remitted will be sufficient to reduce the amount owed. Otherwise, the Company may ask for an immediate refund. The immediate refund may sometimes result in a long process to receive the funds and therefore the Company offsets defers the refunds against future sales.

 

Since these taxes are due from the governments, credit risk is not a concern. The Company has historically been able to obtain the full refunds and offsets of amounts paid against future sales and so no provision for bad debts has been set up against these taxes receivables.

Development costs

 

Development costs are internally generated and are capitalized in accordance with the IAS 38, Intangible Assets. On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses capitalized development costs for indicators of impairment or when facts or circumstances suggest the carrying amount may exceed its recoverable amount. The Company’s internal evaluation as of September 30, 2022, did not give indicators of any additional intangible impairments.

 

The Company engaged a third-party evaluator to determine the recoverable amount of the intangible assets at December 31, 2021. Based on the results of their analysis using the Value In Use (“VIU”) model using a discounted value of 14.2% in 2021, management determined that the recoverable amount was not equal to, or in excess of the carrying amount for a total impairment at December 31, 2021 of $4,739,286 as follows: rugged device impairment of $4,339,366 and $399,920 impairment to a supplier relationship.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 the Company incurred $299,937 (September 30, 2021 - $818,515) in product development costs which did not satisfy the criteria for capitalization and were recorded in development expenses in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

9. Intangible assets (continued)

 

Uniden license

 

During 2016, the Company acquired a license agreement from Uniden America Corporation (“Uniden”). The agreement provides for the Company to use the trademark “Uniden”, along with associated designs and trade dress to distribute, market and sell its cellular signal booster and accessories during its term. The agreement is until December 31, 2031 and is subject to certain minimum royalties. The license agreement is amortized on a straight-line basis over its five-year term and was fully amortized on December 31, 2021. This license agreement is included in Note 15 Commitments and Contingencies.

 

ClearRF patent and supplier relationship

 

As part of the acquisition of ClearRF on March 30, 2021, as described in Note 4 above, the Company purchased two patents valued at $122,717 plus a supplier relationship valued at $399,920. These intangible assets were recorded at cost and were initially scheduled to be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of four years with no residual value.

 

On December 31, 2021, the Company had an independent impairment in value report prepared for the intangibles. Management, based on this report, recognized an impairment of intangible assets for the full amount of the supplier relationship of $399,920 in the fourth quarter of 2022 because of a worldwide component and supply chain shortfall.

 

10. Goodwill

 

The Company has goodwill of $0 on September 30, 2022 (December 31, 2021 – $0). This consists of historical goodwill on the acquisition of the wholly-owned subsidiary, Signifi Mobile Inc. in the amount of $801,780 plus the newly acquired goodwill in 2021 from the acquisition of ClearRF in the amount of $50,257, net of 100% impairment of all goodwill acquired. The Company assesses whether there are, events, changes in circumstances, and/or changes in key assumptions on which management has based its determination of the CGU, that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the CGU to below its carrying value and therefore, require goodwill to be tested for impairment at the end of each reporting period.

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company performed its annual impairment test on the goodwill using the fair value less cost of disposal method. Due to a history of losses in this CGU in the preceding few years and without documentation of back-orders or basis to project profitable operations in the near term, management determined that the recoverable amount was less than the carrying value on December 31, 2021 and recognized goodwill impairment for the full amount of $852,037 in 2021.

 

11. Bank loan

 

Siyata Mobile Israel (“SMI”) had a factoring agreement on its trade receivables, whereby invoices are fully assigned to a funding entity in return for 80%-85% of the total sale to be paid to SMI by the funding entity in advance. The remaining 15-20% was paid to SMI when the funding entity received payment from the customers. At September 30, 2022, the Company has removed all liens and does not have this credit facility. The total amount borrowed by the Company extended by this funding entity and included in the bank loan was $0 (December 31, 2021 - $27,000).

13. Convertible promissory notes

 

On November 3, 2021, the Company issued a $7,200,000 million convertible promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) and 2,142,857 warrants for gross proceeds of $6,000,000.

 

The promissory note matures on November 2, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”). The promissory note will be repaid commencing May 2022 in monthly instalments of $400,000. At the Company’s option, the repayments will be made in cash or common shares of the Company, or a combination of both. If paid by the issuance of common shares, the repayment is paid at a redemption price equal to the greater of 90% of the average five lowest daily volume-weighted average prices during the twenty trading days prior to the issuance of the common shares or $2.00 (the “Redemption Price”).

 

All or a portion of the $7,200,000 is convertible into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $10.00 per common share (the “Conversion Price”), at the option of the holder, at any time subsequent to six months from the date of issuance to the maturity date of November 2, 2023. Under the terms of the promissory note, the conversion price of the promissory note will be adjusted if the Company closes an offering where the common shares of the Company are offered at a price less than the exercise price, resulting in a revision of the conversion price equal to the common share offering.

 

At any time during the promissory note outstanding, the Company can provide the holder of the promissory note written notice of its intention to repay the amount owing. If the notice is provided within the first 6 months post issuance, the Company is required to repay an amount equal to $7,000,000. Subsequent to this time period, the amount outstanding must be converted in full. If the Company provides notice of prepayment, the holder has the option to convert up to 25% of the principal amount at the lesser of the Redemption Price and the Conversion Price, as defined above.

 

Furthermore, if at any time prior to November 2, 2023, the Company proposes to offer or sell new securities, the Company shall first offer the holder the opportunity to purchase ten percent of the new securities.

 

Finally, should the Company subsequently issue equity interests of the Company for aggregate proceeds to the Company of greater than $10 million, excluding offering costs or other expenses, unless otherwise waived in writing by and at the discretion of the holder, the Company will direct twenty percent of such proceeds from such issuance to repay the promissory note.

 

The Company has elected to measure the promissory note (hybrid contract) at FVTPL on initial recognition and, as such, the embedded conversion feature is not separated.

 

On initial recognition, the fair value of the convertible promissory note was $4,395,881, and the warrants issued in conjunction with the instrument (see below) were valued at $2,946,066. The fair value of the components exceeded the transaction price of $6,000,000 and the resulting difference has been deferred and will be recognized in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations over the term of the instrument on a straight-line basis, in the change in fair value of the convertible promissory note. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized an additional charge of $667,867 as a result of the repayment of $4,000,000 of the outstanding promissory note balance.

SIYATA MOBILE INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

13. Convertible promissory notes (continued)

 

On September 30, 2022, the fair value of the promissory note was estimated at $631,729 (December 31, 2021 - $4,573,411) using a binomial lattice model with the following assumptions: risk-free rate of 3.07% (December 31, 2021 - 0.67%); share price of $0.31 (December 31, 2021 - $3.70), expected dividend yield of 0%, and expected volatility of 91% (December 31, 2021 - 45%).

 

There was no change in the fair value due to changes in the Company’s own credit risk during the period.

 

The Company completed a secondary offering of its common shares at a price of $2.30 per common share on January 11, 2022. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, as the common shares of the secondary prices were offered at a price less than the stated Conversion Price ($10.00 per common share) of the promissory note and the Exercise Price of the warrants ($4.00 per common share), both the Conversion Price and the Exercise Price were revised to $2.30 per common share. In addition, as the total gross proceeds of the secondary offering were in excess of $10,000,000, excluding offering costs or other expenses, the Company was required to direct 20% of the gross proceeds to the Lender. A total of $4,000,000 was repaid to the Lender on January 13, 2022.

 

Liens related to this debt are as follows:

 

Under the terms of the promissory note, the Company grants to the lender, a security interest in and pledges and assigns to the lender, the following properties, assets and rights of the Company, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof (all of the same being hereinafter called the “Collateral”): all personal and fixture property of every kind and nature including all goods (including inventory, equipment and any accessions thereto), instruments (including promissory notes), documents (whether tangible or electronic), accounts (including health-care-insurance receivables), chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic), deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights (whether or not the letter of credit is evidenced by a writing), commercial tort claims, securities and all other investment property, supporting obligations, any other contract rights or rights to the payment of money, insurance claims and proceeds, and all general intangibles (including all payment intangibles). The debt is subject to certain non-financial covenants which the Company is not compliance with as of September 30, 2022 as the market capitalization of the Company is below $20,000,000. As a result, the calculation for shares to be issued is revised to be based upon 80% of the three lowest trailing VWAP, in the last 20 days. As well, the Company is required to pay interest at the rate of 15% on any outstanding promissory note balance as of the date of non-compliance. As of September 30, 2022, the Company accrued interest at 15% which amounts to a total due of $62,630.

The warrants allow for the purchase of 2,142,857 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of 4.00 per common share. The warrants expire 5 years from the issue date of the promissory note. Under the terms of the warrants, the exercise price of the warrant will be adjusted if the Company closes an offering where the common shares of the Company are offered at a price less than the exercise price, resulting in a revision of the exercise price equal to the common share offering. Because the exercise price of the warrants will vary if the Company issues common shares at a price lower than the exercise price of the warrants, the warrants are classified as liabilities (see Note 13 for the change in exercise price as of January 13, 2022, to $2.30 per share).

14. Warrant liability (continued)

 

On December 7, 2021, the holder exercised 250,000 warrants to acquire 250,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $4.00 per common share. As a result of the exercise of the warrants, the Company received gross proceeds of $1,000,000 and the proportionate fair value of $385,190 of the underlying warrants on the date of exercise was transferred to share capital.

 

At September 30, 2022, 1,892,857 warrants were outstanding at an exercise price of $2.30 (December 31, 2021 - $4.00). The warrant exercise price dropped from $4.00 to $$2.30 as these warrants had a price adjustment clause and since the Company had a capital raise on January 11, 2022 at $2.30, therefore the warrants were immediately re-priced the exercise price.

 

The fair value of the warrants as at the issuance date was $2,946,066 and was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: share price: $3.93; exercise price: $4.00; expected volatility: 39%; dividend yield: 0%, risk-free rate: 0.47%.

 

During 2021, the holder exercised 250,000 warrants to acquire 250,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $4.00 per common share. As a result of the exercise of the warrants, the Company received gross proceeds of $1,000,000 and the proportionate fair value of $385,190 of the underlying warrants on the date of the exercise was transferred to share capital. The fair value of the warrants at the exercise date was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: share price: $4.60; exercise price $4.00; expected volatility: 30%; dividend yield: 0%; risk-free rate: 1.24%.

 

As at September 30, 2022, the fair value of the remaining 1,892,857 warrants payable was determined to be $289,274 (December 31, 2021 - $2,176,686) as calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: share price $0.31 (December 31, 2021 - $3.70); exercise price: $2.30 (December 31, 2021 - $4.00); expected volatility: 117% (December 31, 2021 - 37%); dividend yield: 0%; risk-free rate 4.06% (December 31, 2021 - 0.67%).

 

January 11, 2022 warrants

 

The Company assessed that the 9,999,999 warrants (consisting of 1,304,347 overallotment warrants and 8,695,652 regular warrants all exercisable at $2.30 per share and expire, if unexercised, on January 11, 2027) issued under the public offering (as more fully described in Note 16), excluding the Placement Agent Warrants did not meet the “fixed for fixed” test and are therefore reported as liabilities at fair value through profit and loss, and revalued at the end of each period. The Placement Agent Warrants were assessed under IFRS 2 Share Based Payments, as equity-settled share based payments and have been recorded in equity.

 

The fair value of the warrants at September 30, 2022 was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: share price: $0.31; exercise price $2.30; implied volatility: 102.5%; dividend yield: 0%; risk free rate: 4.09%.

 

As the warrants are treated as a liability, the residual value method under IAS 32 was utilized to allocate the total proceeds of the issuance. The residual value to be allocated to common shares and to the warrants are as follows:

 

   Units and
Prefunded
Units
 
Gross proceeds  $19,999,999 
Less: Total fair value of warrant liability   (9,063,025)
Residual value to common shares   10,936,974 

 

   Overallotment Warrants 
Gross proceeds  $13,043 
Less: Total fair value of warrant liability   (975,393)
Day one loss - change in fair value opening   (962,350)

 

The day one loss is the excess of the proceeds of $975,393 on the 1,304,347 overallotment warrants allocated to the option warrant liability. As the fair value of the warrant liability exceeded the proceeds received on the warrants of $13,043, a fair value loss of $962,350 was recognized in the statement of profit and loss on January 11, 2022. This amount is shown separately on the statement of operations and does not impact the warrant liability continuity schedules.

Common share transactions

 

Transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are as follows:

 

·On January 11, 2022, the Company completed an underwritten public offering in the United States, raising a total of $20,013,043 in gross proceeds. The Company allocated the gross proceeds and direct costs between the units, pre-funded units and option warrants using the relative fair value of the components.

 

·The underwritten public offering resulted in the sale to the public of 7,215,652 Units at $2.30 per Unit, with each Unit being comprised of one common share and one warrant (the “Unit Warrants”) exercisable at $2.30 per share. The Unit warrants are exercisable immediately and have a term of 5 years. Gross proceeds of $9,885,327 were allocated to the common shares, and $5,395,878 to the unit warrants as a liability.

 

·In addition, the Company issued 1,480,000 pre-funded units (“Pre-Funded Units”) at $2.29 per Pre-Funded Unit. Each Pre-Funded Unit is comprised of a one-pre-funded warrant (a “Pre-Funded Warrant”) to purchase one common share, and one warrant to purchase one common share. The Pre-Funded Warrant allows the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.01 per common share, and a warrant to purchase a common share at an exercise price of $2.30 per share. The warrants are exercisable immediately and have a term of 5 years. Each Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable immediately and is exercisable until all Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised. Proceeds of $2,560,400 were allocated to the pre-funded warrants, and $1,107,147 to the warrants.

 

·The Company concurrently sold an additional 1,304,347 warrants to purchase 1,304,347 common shares exercisable at $2.30 per share (the “Option Warrants”) pursuant to an over-allotment option exercised by the underwriter. The exercise price of the warrants issued in connection with the exercise of the over-allotment option was $0.0097 per warrant. Each Option Warrant is exercisable immediately and has a term of five years from the issue date. Proceeds of $975,393 were allocated to the Option Warrants. As the fair value of the warrant liability exceeded the proceeds received on the warrants of $13,043, a fair value loss of $962,350 was recognized in the statement of profit and loss as a fair value change in the opening warrant liability,

 

·The fair value of the common shares and pre-funded units was determined by reference to the market price on the day of the offering, which was $1.73 per share. The Unit Warrants, Warrants, and Option Warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions: initial stock price $1.73, strike rate $2.30, dividend yield 0%, term 5 years, volatility 60.0% and risk free rate 0.50%.

 

·The Company also issued warrants to the placement agents to purchase 434,783 common shares at an exercise price of $2.53 per share (the “Placement Agent Warrants”), which are exercisable 180 days from January 11, 2022, with a term of five years.

21. Capital management

 

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework.

 

The Company defines capital as consisting of shareholder’s equity. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to support the creation of shareholder value, as well as to ensure that the Company is able to meet its financial obligations as they become due.

 

The Company manages its capital structure to maximize its financial flexibility making adjustments in response to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets and business opportunities. The Company does not presently utilize any quantitative measures to monitor its capital but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain the future development of the business. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

 

As at September 30, 2022, the Company is subject to externally imposed capital requirements arising from both covenants included in the debt agreement as well as the repayment of monthly principal payments on the convertible promissory note outstanding, as described in Note 13. The Company was subject to a debt covenant in relation to the factoring agreement described in Note 5 that has been extinguished on July 1, 2022.

 

22. Financial instruments

 

The convertible promissory note is estimated at fair value using a binomial lattice model using the following inputs: stock price (Level 1 input); risk-free rates (Level 1 input); credit spread (Level 3 input); volatility (Level 3 input).

Sensitivity Analysis

  

Type

  Valuation Technique   Key Inputs   Inter-relationship between significant
inputs and fair value measurement
Convertible Promissory Note   The fair value of the convertible promissory note has been calculated using a binomial lattice methodology  

Key observable inputs at September 30, 2022

 

●   Share price: $0.31

●   Risk-free interest rate: 3.07%

●   Dividend yield: 0%

 

Key unobservable inputs at September 30, 2022

 

●   Instrument specific spread: 45%

●   Credit spread: 13.85%

 

The estimated fair value would increase (decrease) if:

 

●   The share price was higher (lower)

●   The risk-free interest rate was higher (lower)

●   The dividend yield was lower (higher)

●   The instrument specific spread was lower (higher)

●   The credit spread was lower (higher)

 

The fair value of the warrants at September 30, 2022 was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: share price: $0.31; exercise price: $2.30; implied volatility: 102.5%; dividend yield: 0%; risk-free rate: 4.09%.

 

The fair values of the Company’s cash, trade and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long term-debt, approximate carrying value, which is the amount recorded on the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of financial position.

 

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 places its cash with institutions of high creditworthiness. Management has assessed there to be a low level of credit risk associated with its cash balances.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each customer. However, management also considers the demographics of the Company’s customer base, including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate, as these factors may have an influence on credit risk. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, one customer accounted for 26% of the Company’s revenues (September 30, 2021 – 29%).

 

The Company has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analyzed individually for creditworthiness before the Company’s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Company’s review includes external ratings, when available, and in some cases bank references. Purchase limits are established for each customer, which represents the maximum open amount without requiring approval from the Risk Management Committee; these limits are reviewed quarterly. Certain key customers were offered extended payment terms on their purchases due to slow down from Covid-19 and budget approvals for government tenders. As a result, the Company had customers with overdue receivables on their books which resulted in the Company taking a bad debt provision on these overdue receivables of $1,028,000 on September 30, 2022 (September 30, 2021 - $1,530,667).

 

In monitoring customer credit risk, customers are grouped according to their credit characteristics, including whether they are an individual or legal entity, whether they are a wholesale, retail or end-user customer, geographic location, industry, aging profile, maturity, and the existence of previous financial difficulties. Trade and other receivables relate mainly to the Company’s wholesale customers. Customers that are graded as “high risk” are placed on a restricted customer list and monitored by the Company.

 

The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure, notwithstanding the carrying amount of security or any other credit enhancements.

Total  $1,759,437   $1,544,427 

 

Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

 

The Company examines current forecasts of its liquidity requirements so as to make certain that there is sufficient cash for its operating needs, and it is careful at all times to have enough unused credit facilities so that the Company does not exceed its credit limits and is in compliance with its financial covenants (if any). These forecasts take into consideration matters such as the Company’s plan to use debt for financing its activity, compliance with required financial covenants, compliance with certain liquidity ratios, and compliance with external requirements such as laws or regulation.

 

The Company uses activity-based costing to cost its products and services, which assists it in monitoring cash flow requirements and optimizing its cash return on investments. Typically, the Company ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 90 days, including the servicing of financial obligations; this excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

 

The Company has a factoring agreement with external funding that has been terminated as of July 2022 (Note 5).

 

With the exception of employee benefits, the Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities have contractual terms of 90 days. The employment benefits included in accrued liabilities have variable maturities within the coming year.

 

Currency risk

 

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The functional currency of the Company is the USD. As at September 30, 2022, the Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk with respect to financial instruments is as follows:

Interest rate risk

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in interest rates. The Company’s sensitivity to interest rates is inherently involved in the fair value calculations of both the convertible promissory note and the warrant liability which are revalued each reporting period based on changing parameters which include the prevailing interest rate.

 

Price risk

 

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. The Company closely monitors individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

Each common share was sold together with one common warrant at a combined effective offering price of $0.23. Each pre-funded warrant was sold together with one common warrant at a combined effective offering price of $0.22 with an exercise price of $0.01 per pre-funded warrant.

Siyata Mobile Inc.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

 

Corporate Overview

 

Siyata Mobile Inc. is a leading global developer of innovative cellular-based communications solutions over advanced 4G/LTE mobile networks under the Uniden® Cellular and Siyata brands to global first responders and enterprise customers. Siyata’s three complementary product categories include rugged handheld mobile devices and in-vehicle communications solutions for first responders, enterprise customers, commercial fleet vehicles and industrial workers, and cellular amplifiers to boost the cellular signal inside homes, and buildings and vehicles.

 

On September 25, 2020 the Company listed on the NASDAQ CAPITAL MARKETS (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol SYTA for its common shares, and the Company’s warrants issued on September 29, 2020 at $6.85 are traded under the symbol SYTAW, and expire in 5 years from the date of issue.

 

The registered and records office is located at 2200 - 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 3E8.

 

Products

 

The Company develops, manufactures, markets, and sells a portfolio of rugged handheld Push-to-Talk over Cellular (“PoC”) smartphone devices. These rugged business-to-business (“B2B”) environments are focused on enterprise customers, first responders, construction workers, security guards, government agencies, utilities, transportation and waste management, amusement parks, and mobile workers in multiple industries.

 

Prior to 2021, Siyata sold rugged handsets, such as the Uniden UR5 and Uniden UR7 only in international markets. In Q2 2022, Siyata unveiled its next generation rugged device, the SD7. The SD7 is Siyata’s first mission critical push-to-talk device (“MCPTT”) and is also the first rugged handset that Siyata launched in North America, in the fourth quarter of 2021, and is expected to launch this device in Europe in Q1 2023. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of 2022, Siyata announced the SD7+, a single platform solution that integrates PTT and bodycam functionality.

 

Our second product category is purpose built in-Vehicle communication devices. In Q4 2021, Siyata launched the VK7, a first-of-its-kind, patent-pending car kit with an integrated 10-watt speaker, a simple slide-in connection sleeve for the SD7, and an external antenna connection for connecting to a windshield or roof mount antenna to allow for an in-vehicle experience for the user that is similar to that from a traditional land mobile radio (“LMR”) device. The VK7 has been uniquely designed to be used with the SD7, while connecting directly into the vehicle’s power and can also connect to a Uniden cellular amplifier for better cellular connectivity. The VK7 can also be equipped with an external remote speaker microphone (“RSM”) to ensure compliance with hands-free communication legislation.

 

The Uniden® UV350 4G/LTE, is a purpose built in-Vehicle communication device designed specifically for professional vehicles such as trucks, vans, buses, emergency service vehicles and other enterprise vehicles. This platform is designed to facilitate replacement of the current in-vehicle, multi-device status-quo with a single device that incorporates voice, PoC, data, fleet management solutions and other Android based professional applications. The UV350 also supports Band 14 for the First Responder Network Authority, or FirstNet®, compatibility which is the U.S. First Responders 4G/LTE network with PoC capabilities that aims to replace aging two-way radio systems currently in use.

 

The aforementioned portfolio of solutions offers the benefits of PoC without any of the difficulties managing the current generation of rugged smart/feature phones and is ideally suited as a perfect upgrade from Land Mobile Radios (“LMR”). Used for generations, LMR has a significant number of limitations, including network incompatibility, limited coverage areas, and restricted functionality that leave a huge need for a unified network and platform. Siyata’s innovative PoC product lines are helping to service the generational shift from LMR to PoC. According to VDC Research, the LMR market is growing at a 5.9% compound annual growth rate, while the PoC market is growing at 13.6% CAGR and annual PoC shipments are expected to grow to 2.7 million in 2023.  

 

Cellular boosters are our third product category with approximately 30 million of these devices sold globally every year. Siyata manufactures and sells Uniden®cellular boosters and accessories for enterprise, first responder and consumer customers with a focus on the North America markets. Cellular communication provides a robust, secure environment not just for remote workers, in-home and in-vehicles; but also for restaurant patrons who wish to download menus; for patients at pharmacies who need to verify identity and download scripts; for remote workers who require strong clear cellular signals; and for first responders where connectivity literally means the difference between life and death - just to name a few examples. The vehicle vertical in this portfolio complements Siyata’s in-vehicle and rugged handheld smartphones as these sales can be bundled through the Company’s existing sales channels.

The North American Tier 1 cellular carriers that Siyata is working with large scale distribution and sales channels. With an estimated 25 million commercial vehicles including 7.0 million first responder vehicles. The Company sees the North American market as its largest opportunity with a total addressable market over $19 billion. These Tier 1 cellular carriers have a keen interest in launching the UV350 as it allows for new SIM card activations in commercial vehicles and increased ARPU from existing customers with corporate and first responder fleets while targeting new customers with a unique, dedicated, multi-purpose in-vehicle IoT smartphone.

 

In addition, our rugged handsets will ultimately be targeted to approximately 47 million enterprise task and public sector workers across North America including construction, transport& logistics, manufacturing, energy & utility, public safety and federal government.

 

Significant Highlights

 

The following highlights and developments for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and to the date of this MD&A:

 

On September 8, 2022, Siyata announced that its SD7 rugged mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) device is now integrated with CrisisGo Inc.’s (“CrisisGo”) Panic App, giving teachers instant access to first responders with a single push of a button. Integrated SoS communication improves response times and public safety during times of school community crisis.

 

On September 22, 2022, Siyata announced that it has been awarded a purchase order from a U.S. Navy contractor to provide Uniden® cellular booster kits and accessories for certain of the Navy’s buildings.

 

On October 10, 2022, Siyata announced it entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors to purchase approximately $4.0 million of its common shares and pre-funded warrants in lieu thereof in a registered direct offering and warrants to purchase common shares in a concurrent private placement. The combined effective purchase price for one common share (or pre-funded warrant in lieu thereof) and one warrant will be $0.23.

 

On October 26, 2022, Siyata announced the SD7+ rugged mission-critical push-to-talk (PTT) device will soon be powered with Visual Labs Inc.’s (“Visual Labs”) innovative body camera software.

 

On October 31, 2022, Siyata announced the addition of telecom industry veteran Dan Leech to the Company’s sales team.

 

Outlook

 

Siyata has laid the foundation for greater distribution with expanded partnerships and expanded its product offerings into North America. Management is hopeful that this momentum will continue, in particular, as it leverages its key sales channels, and with its expanded and refreshed product offerings.

Outlook (continued)

 

Rugged Handsets

 

Siyata’s rugged handsets are targeted to the approximately 47 million enterprise task and public sector workers across North America including construction, transport & logistics, manufacturing, energy & utility, public safety, and federal government. To date, Siyata has sold its rugged handsets only in international markets. Siyata expanded its footprint in this product category with the marketing campaign of the SD7 device, in Q4 2021 in North America and is expected to launch its marketing campaign for this device in Europe in 2023. The SD7 is a next-generation device and Siyata’s first mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) handset. The SD7+ provides a single platform solution that integrates PTT and bodycam functionality with excellent sound and video quality that operates over high bandwidth 4G LTE networks.

 

In-Vehicle Devices

 

Many large-scale programs were delayed due to the pandemic, therefore creating pent-up demand for these disruptive solutions. Active engagements including many customer trials have resumed in 2022 which should translate into growth in this product line.

 

Cellular Boosters

 

The third product category we serve is the cellular signal booster market. Siyata’s cellular booster kits eliminate weak cellular signals for failsafe phone calls and text; fast, uninterrupted streaming; and total peace of mind for the end-user. Siyata’s multiple lines of cellular boosters cater to several verticals including Enterprise, Commercial, First Responder, and Consumers. Siyata’s booster suite of products caters to both inside buildings as well as inside vehicles. The main market we sell into is in North America, where they are sold under the Uniden® brand name.

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, were $4,370,387 compared to $5,607,829 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This negative variance of $1,237,442 (-22.1%) is primarily the result of a decrease in cellular booster sales of $1,932,000 due to a large booster sale in Q1 2021 of $1,396,558 that did not recur and the overall decrease in sales of boosters, partially offset by an increase in the year to date sales of rugged devices of $698,000

 

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $1,219,827 (27.9%% of sales) compared to $1,703,285 (30.4% of sales) in the same period in 2021, a negative variance of $483,458. The decrease in gross margin is due to the flow through impact of lower sales, particularly the lower sales of cellular booster products in 2022 that are usually at a higher margin.

 

Amortization and depreciation costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 were $811,234 and $785,655, respectively, a negative variance of $25,579. This negative variance is due to the increase in intangible asset amortization on the new suite of SD7 product line.

 

Development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 were $299,937 and $818,515, respectively. This positive variance of $518,578 is due to the decrease in costs related to product development that does not meet the criteria for capitalization.

General and administrative costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 were $4,684,702 and $3,257,857, respectively. This negative variance of $1,426,845 relates mainly to an increase in professional fees of $732,989 as a result of the engagement of a marketing consultant for $388,597, an increase in patent fees of $69,918, additional legal fees of $132,581 related to the filing of an F-3 and S-8 registration statements in 2022, and an increase in audit and related advisory services in 2022 of $141,893 due to the requirement for valuations of complex transactions as well as the duplication of costs related to engaging a new audit firm. The negative variance is also attributable to an increase in office and general of $264,491 due to the increased cost of D&O insurance in 2022, a $195,465 increase in directors fees, a $112,938 increase in shareholder relation costs, an increase of $89,850 in G&A salaries, an increase in G&A travel of $28,175, and a $2,937 increase in regulatory and filing fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company defines capital as consisting of shareholder’s equity (comprised of issued share capital, reserves, accumulated translation differences and deficit). The Company manages its capital structure to maximize its financial flexibility making adjustments to it in response to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets and business opportunities. The Company does not presently utilize any quantitative measures to monitor its capital, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain the future development of the business. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. As at September 30, 2022, the Company is subject to externally imposed capital requirements arising from the monthly payments of principal on the convertible debenture. The Company was subject to a debt covenant in relation to the factoring agreement that was terminated as of July 1, 2022 as more fully described in Note 11 to the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Siyata Mobile Israel had a factoring facility with Israeli banks whereby the Bank advanced funds to Siyata Mobile Israel and charged a fluctuating interest rate on the advanced funds until it was repaid by the borrowers’ customers. The Bank had a lien on these receivables. The factored receivables were all required to be insured in case of customer default with a financial institution. The factoring facility was terminated as of July 2022.

 

The Company’s objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient liquidity in order to meet operational and investing requirements at any point in time. The Company has historically financed its operations primarily through a combination of demand loans and the sale of share capital by way of private placements.

 

As at September 30, 2022, the Company had a cash balance $988,626 (December 31, 2021- $1,619,742). The Company has an accumulated deficit of $71,230,357 (December 31, 2021 - $62,519,412) and working capital of $4,951,595 (December 31, 2021- negative $688,973).

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $13,280,167 and $9,944,537, respectively. The increase in cash used of $3,335,630 was primarily due to $1,769,398 increase in cash used in 2022 due to net loss after addback and deductions of non-cash expenses, and $1,566,232 increase in noncash working capital items.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $2,444,013 and $2,450,523, respectively, a positive variance of $6,510. This variance relates primarily to a $108,900 decrease in the purchase of equipment in the year, a decrease in long term deposit of $18,999, offset by $88,389 increase in intangibles and a $33,000 increase on the final balance payment of the ClearRF acquisition.

 

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $15,105,394 and ($599,309), respectively. This positive variance of $15,704,703 is mainly due to shares issued for cash over the prior year period of $18,659,543 and offset by the increase in repayment of the promissory notes in the amount $2,822,214.

 

The future success of the Company is dependent on the continued success of its vehicle-mounted communications products, its mobile rugged phones, and its booster products together with the ability to finance the necessary working capital, at agreeable terms, to support the growth of the business.

 

The Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS under the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than a process of forced liquidation. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
