LEXARIA BIOSCIENCE CORP.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 2022
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
1. Nature of Business
Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (“Lexaria”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”) is a biotechnology company pursuing the enhancement of the bioavailability of a diverse and broad range of active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”) using our patented drug delivery technology DehydraTECH TM . Through continued validation of our research and development our focus is on national and international applications for DehydraTECH.
Revenues are primarily derived from licensing fees for the use of the Company’s patented technology to partners who pay either a fee to use DehydraTECH in the manufacturing of their own products or through the purchase of DehydraTECH manufactured products made to their specifications by Lexaria. The Company has relationships with several consumer products companies in the CBD and nutraceuticals spaces that use Lexaria’s technology in consumer goods being sold online and at retailers in the US and Canada.
The Company is headquartered in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. The corporate website is www.lexariabioscience.com
Going Concern Analysis
The Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) applicable to a going concern which assumes the Company will have sufficient funds to pay it operational, research and development and capital expenditures for a period of at least 12 months from the date this financial report.
Since inception, the Company has incurred significant operating and net losses. The losses attributable to common shareholders were $ 4.2 m, $ 4.1 m and $ 4.2 m for the years ended August 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of May 31, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $ 37.6 m. We expect to continue to incur significant operational expenses and net losses in the upcoming 12 months. Our net losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year, depending on the stage and complexity of our R&D studies and related expenditures, the receipt of additional payments on the licencing of our technology, if any, and the receipt of payments under any current or future collaborations we may enter.
On January 12, 2021, the Company closed an underwritten public offering for net proceeds of $ 9,471,497 . In the fourth quarter of the year ended August 31, 2021, the Company received $ 4,015,043 from the exercise of warrants.
Until the Company is able to generate significant product revenue, operations will be supported with equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. We may offer additional securities for sale during fiscal year 2022 or thereafter in response to market conditions or other circumstances if we believe such a plan of financing is required to advance the Company’s business plans and is in the best interests of our stockholders. The Company has the option to raise up to one-third of its aggregate market value of its common equity held by non-affiliates through the issuance of securities pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (333-262402) as filed with the SEC on January 28, 2022 and declared effective on February 4, 2022.
Page 7 of 33
Table of Contents
To date, we have obtained cash and funded our operations primarily through equity financings and license agreements. In order to continue the development of our drug candidates, at some point in the future we expect to pursue one or more capital transactions, whether through the sale of equity securities, debt financing, license agreements or entry into strategic partnerships. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise additional capital in the future.
The Company has evaluated whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As of May 31, 2022, the Company had cash of approximately $ 7 .0m. We believe this is sufficient to enable the Company to fund its operating and R&D expenses and any capital expenditure requirements through one year from the issuance date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.
COVID-19
Impacts of COVID-19 Pandemic
The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 continues to present uncertainty and unforecastable new risks to the Company and its business plans. As of May 31, 2022, there has been no material impact on the Company’s financial position as a direct result of the pandemic. However, the Company has experienced some supply chain disruptions and shortages in the procurement of ingredients and supplies used in both our R&D activities and production. Management views this situation as transitory but cannot predict the length of time it may take for these disruptions to dissipate or if there will be a significant economic effect on the Company’s operations. In the interim, it may cause delays in carrying out our research studies and in our production schedules.
Restrictions on international travel presents a challenge in carrying out normal business activities related to corporate finance efforts and the pursuit of new customers throughout North America who might otherwise access the retail products of our licensees. As a result, the pandemic has increased the risk of lower revenues and higher losses.
During the year ended August 31, 2020, we received C$ 30,732 in COVID relief under the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy programs for employees which reduced our employment costs in that year. During fiscal 2020 we also received C$ 40,000 from the Canadian Government sponsored Emergency Business Account loan program. As specified by the terms of this program, we repaid C$ 30,000 of the loan in fiscal 2021. The remaining $ 7,906 (C$10,000) of the loan payable is anticipated to be forgiven as directed under this program in the year ended August 31, 2023.
We continue to actively monitor the evolving effects of COVID-19 and may take further actions that alter our operations, including those that may be required by federal, state, provincial, or local authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees and third parties with which we do business.
The economic effect of the pandemic combined with increased geopolitical uncertainty and rising inflation is expected to have an impact on the Company’s future reporting periods. The effects are difficult to predict and could result in material financial impact on the Company’s financial results.

Table of Contents
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies of the Company are consistent with those of our audited financial statements on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2021.
3. Basis of Consolidation
These interim consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries; Lexaria CanPharm ULC, Lexaria CanPharm Holdings Corp., PoViva Corp., Lexaria Hemp Corp., Kelowna Management Services Corp., and Lexaria Pharmaceutical Corp., and our 83.333 % owned subsidiary Lexaria Nicotine LLC ( 16.667 % Altria Ventures Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Altria Group, Inc.). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
4. Basis of Presentation
The Company’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any subsequent period.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated annual financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2021.
5. Estimates and Judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the Company’s accounting policies require us to make subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. These accounting policies involve critical accounting estimates because they are particularly dependent on estimates and assumptions made by management about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made. Although we have used our best estimates based on facts and circumstances available to us at the time, different estimates reasonably could have been used. Changes in the accounting estimates used by the Company are reasonably likely to occur from time to time, which may have a material effect on the presentation of financial condition and results of operations.
The Company reviews these estimates, judgments, and assumptions periodically and reflect the effects of revisions in the period in which they are deemed to be necessary. Although we believe that these estimates are reasonable actual results could differ.
In preparing these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2021.

6. Recent Accounting Guidance
Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted
In October of 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an update to Government Assistance (Topic 832) to increase the transparency of government assistance and its disclosure in the notes to the financial statements. Amendments in this update take effect for annual periods beginning after December 31, 2021. Early application of the amendments is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of these standards to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The FASB subsequently issued amendments to ASU 2016-13, which have the same effective date and transition date of January 1, 2023. These standards require that credit losses be reported using an expected losses model rather than the incurred losses model that is currently used, and establishes additional disclosures related to credit risks. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, these standards now require allowances to be recorded instead of reducing the amortized cost of the investment. These standards limit the amount of credit losses to be recognized for available-for-sale debt securities to the amount by which carrying value exceeds fair value and requires the reversal of previously recognized credit losses if fair value increases. The Company does not currently expect the adoption of these standards to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
