Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

February 29, 2020

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars - Unaudited)



1.

NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS


Liquid Media Group Ltd. (“Liquid” or the “Company”), formerly Leading Brands Inc. (“LBIX”), is the parent company of Liquid Media Group (Canada) Ltd. (“Liquid Canada”), formerly Liquid Media Group Ltd. The Company is an entertainment company with a portfolio of content IP spanning creative industries.  The Company’s mission is to empower storytellers worldwide to develop, produce and distribute content across channels and platforms. The head office and registered records office of the Company is Suite 202 – 5626 Larch Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6M 4E1. The Company’s shares trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading symbol “YVR”.


These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As at February 29, 2020, the Company has generated losses since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $20,094,205. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to generate future cash flows or obtain additional financing. Management has estimated that it does not have sufficient working capital to meet the Company’s liabilities and commitments as they become due for the upcoming 12 months and, therefore, will be required to obtain additional financing.  These material uncertainties cast substantial doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the approval of these financial statements.  There is a risk that additional financing will not be available on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, customers, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including ours. This outbreak could decrease spending, adversely affect demand for our product and harm our business and results of operations; however, the Company has also recognized that the pandemic has led to a global increase in screen time and online gaming which is beneficial to the Company’s operations. It is not possible for us to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on our business, results of operations, or how it will impact the Company’s ability to conduct financings at this time.


These condensed interim 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.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.


Statement of compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounts Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Condensed Interim Financial Reporting” using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).


This condensed interim financial report does not include all of the information required of a full annual financial report and is intended to provide users with an update in relation to events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in financial position and performance of the Company since the end of the last annual reporting period.  Therefore, it is recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements of the Company for the year ended November 30, 2019.


The accounting policies applied in preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2019, except for the following:


Business combinations


On December 1, 2019, the Company elected to early adopt the amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations.  The amendment:

·

clarifies minimum requirements to be a business,

·

clarifies market participants ability to replace missing elements,

·

clarifies the assessment of whether an acquired process is substantive,

·

narrows the definition of outputs, and

·

provides for an optional concentration test which is met if substantially all of the fair value of the gross net assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets.


Basis of presentation

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical costs, except for certain financial assets and liabilities, including derivative instruments that are measured at fair value.  The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.


Basis of consolidation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries at the end of the reporting period as follows:

2.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Basis of consolidation (continued)


All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.


Non-controlling interest represents the portion of a subsidiary’s earnings and losses and net assets that is not held by the Company.  If losses in a subsidiary applicable to a non-controlling interest exceed the non-controlling interest in the subsidiary’s equity, the excess is allocated to the non-controlling interest except to the extent that the majority has a binding obligation and is able to cover the losses.


Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the period.


Although management uses historical experience and its best knowledge of the amount, events or actions to form the basis for judgments and estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.


The most significant accounts that require estimates as the basis for determining the stated amounts include the valuation of convertible debentures, the valuation of investments in films and intangible assets including goodwill, the valuation of investments in equity instruments, the valuation of share-based compensation and other equity based payments and derivative liability, and the valuation of expected credit loss.


Significant judgements includes the determination of functional currency, assessments over level of control or influence over companies, and the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets.


Critical judgment exercised in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is as follows:


Level of control or influence over companies

The accounting for investments in other companies can vary depending on the degree of control and influence over those other companies.  Management is required to assess at each reporting date the Company’s control and influence over these other companies.  Management has used its judgment to determine which companies are controlled and require consolidation and those which are significantly influenced and require equity accounting.  The Company has considered its ownership position in Waterproof Studios Inc. (“Waterproof”) to constitute significant influence up to February 28, 2019 and thereafter does not have the ability to influence the key operating activities of the entity.  Accordingly, as of March 1, 2019 the Company has accounted for its investment under fair value through profit or loss (Note 9 and 10).


Functional currency

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the United States dollar (“USD”); however, determination of functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment which is re-evaluated for each new entity or if conditions change.


Income taxes

In assessing the probability of realizing income tax assets, management makes estimates related to expectation of future taxable income, applicable tax opportunities, expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences and the likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities. In making its assessments, management gives additional weight to positive and negative evidence that can be objectively verified.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Use of estimates (continued)


Acquisition of group of assets

The Company acquired platform coding which did not meet the definition of a business and is accounted for as an asset acquisition.  The Company applied the amended IFRS 3 Business Combinations standard in its determination that the acquisition did not meet the definition of a business, in particular, the optional concentration test, as substantially all the fair value of the assets acquired were accounted in a group of similar identifiable assets.


Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustments are as follows:


Valuation of share-based compensation, derivatives, and convertible features

The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model for valuation of share-based compensation and other equity based payments. Option pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions including expected price volatility, interest rate, and forfeiture rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and the Company’s earnings and equity reserves.


Valuation of intangible assets including goodwill

Goodwill and intangible assets are tested for impairment at each reporting date.  Management first reviews qualitative factors in determining if an impairment needs to be recorded.  Quantitative factors are then used to calculate the amount of impairment, if needed.  Goodwill and intangibles resulted from a business acquisition.  Intangibles were valued based on estimated discounted cash flows.


Valuation of investment in equity instrument

The Company values its equity instruments in private companies at fair value at each reporting date.  The determination of fair value is based on estimates made by management on the expected earnings before income, taxes, and amortization multiplied by a reasonable factor for the appropriate industry applicable to the private company.


Valuation of expected credit loss

Loans receivables are assessed for an estimated credit loss at each reporting date.  The estimated loss is determined based on management’s knowledge of the debtor and their ability to repay the loan.  As the current debtors’ are private entities, management must rely on assertions provided to them from the debtor to make their estimates.


Valuation of convertible debentures

The equity portion of the convertible debenture is calculated using a discounted cash flow method which requires management to make an estimate on an appropriate discount rate.


Equipment

Equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.


Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.


Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized in profit or loss.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Equipment (continued)

Assets under construction are not depreciated until available for their intended use.

Depreciation is charged over the estimated useful lives using the declining balance method as follows:

Computer equipment

30%

Intangible assets

The Company has intangible assets from acquisitions and development of gaming content. The amortization method, useful life and residual values are assessed annually and the assets are tested for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Amortization expense is recorded on a straight-line basis beginning with the month the corresponding assets are available for use and over the estimated useful lives provided below:

Video game catalogues

15 years

Platform coding

  3 years

Brands

indefinite

Intellectual property

indefinite

Upon retirement or disposal, the cost of the asset disposed of and the related accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in profit and loss.  Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

Development expenditures, including the cost of material, direct labour, and other direct costs are recognized as an intangible asset when the following recognition requirements are met:

·

the development costs can be measured reliably;

·

the project is technically and commercially feasible;

·

the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete the project;

·

the Company has the ability to use or sell the asset, and

·

the asset will generate probable future economic benefits.

Intangible assets being developed are amortized once development is complete and the asset starts to generate income.

Video game catalogues

The video game catalogues are made up of a diverse variety of games, ranging in age and popularity.  The catalogues are unique due to the diverse nature of the products within the catalogues, making it difficult to assign a useful life. The useful life of 15 years represents management’s view of the expected period over which the Company expects benefits from the acquired gaming content packaged as catalogues. The election of this useful life is supported by internal game titles still producing revenue at this age.

Platform coding

The platform coding acquired by the Company has an estimated useful life of 3 years due to rapidly changing technology.


Brand

Through the acquisition of Majesco (Note 4), the Company acquired the “Majesco Entertainment” brand which was determined to have an indefinite life.


Changes in accounting standards

The Company has adopted the following accounting standards effective December 1, 2019, which had no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements:

·

IFRS 16 - Leases

·

IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty Over Income Tax Treatments

INVESTMENT IN ASSOCIATES


Waterproof


On April 15, 2015, the Company acquired a 49% interest in Waterproof by paying $475,000 and issuing 100,000 common shares with a fair value of $125,001.  The Company also issued 40,000 common shares as a finder’s fee with a fair value of $50,000 during the year ended November 30, 2015.


The Company owns 49% of Waterproof and previously held significant influence over the investment causing the Company to account for its investment using the equity method.  As at March 1, 2019, the Company no longer had the ability to exert significant influence over Waterproof’s operating activities due to ongoing disputes, therefore causing the Company to reclassify the investment as FVTPL (Note 10).

INVESTMENT IN EQUITY INSTRUMENTS


Until February 28, 2019, the Company accounted for the investment in Waterproof (Note 9) using the equity method resulting in a carrying value of $587,274 at March 1, 2019, however, the Company no longer exerts significant influence over Waterproof’s operating activities resulting in the investment being reclassified as FVTPL.


The fair value as at March 1, 2019 was determined to be $1,649,362 resulting in a gain of $1,062,088 on derecognition from the equity accounting carrying value.


As at February 29, 2020, the value of Waterproof’s common shares were estimated to be $1,732,798 (November 30, 2018 - $1,551,324) resulting in an unrealized gain on equity instruments of $162,177 (three months ended February 28, 2019 - $Nil).  The currency translation adjustment as at February 29, 2020 was $19,297 (November 30, 2019 - $10,089).

GOODWILL


Goodwill of $3,356,355 was acquired during the year ended November 30, 2018 pursuant to the acquisition of Majesco.  The currency translation adjustment as at February 29, 2020 was $263,716 (November 30, 2019 - $226,193).


Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.  At November 30, 2019, the Company performed its impairment review of goodwill by comparing each cost center’s fair value to the net book value including goodwill.  The Company has determined that it has one cost center: Majesco.  The fair value of the cost center was determined by management based on a valuation using the income approach.  The income approach uses future projections of cash flows from the cost center and includes, among other estimates, projections of future revenue and operating expenses, market supply and demand, projected capital spending and an assumption of the weighted average cost of capital.  Management’s evaluation of fair values includes analysis based on the future cash flows generated by the underlying assets, estimated trends and other relevant determinants of fair value for these assets.  Management has determined that no events have occurred subsequent to the date of the assessment that would require a further impairment review of goodwill.

In fiscal 2016 a $2,500,000 Credit facility was secured by assets of the Company under a general security agreement with a due date of November 30, 2018 and an interest rate of 14.4% per annum.  A fee of $60,000 was settled through the issuance of shares during the year ended November 30, 2017.  The Company repaid $1,750,000 of principal and $147,945 of interest during the year ended November 30, 2017.


In June 2018, a new lender acquired the remaining $750,000 loan and under new terms, the loan was due on August 20, 2018.  The new lender obtained a Limited Power of Attorney over the Company’s 49% interest in Waterproof (“Waterproof POA”).  In December 2018, the lender registered a general security agreement over all the Company’s current and future assets.


In November 2019, the new lender signed a Forebearance Agreement which extended the maturity date of the loan to November 30, 2020 and required the Company to make quarterly payments of $250,000 commencing on March 31, 2020 until the principal and interest on the loan have been paid in full.  In accordance with the Forebarance Agreement, the Company issued 215,000 treasury shares of the Company as security for the loan which will be transferred to the lender upon any default of the loan.  Additionally, the new lender released the Waterproof POA and amended their general security agreement to exclude the Company’s investment in Waterproof.  In March 2020, the new lender provided an extension allowing the delay of the quarterly payments to commence June 30, 2020.


Interest of $316,208 (November 30, 2019 - $289,282) remains outstanding and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.


Bank loan

In May 2019, the Company entered into a revolving note for US$500,000 with City National Bank which bears interest at 3.49% per annum and is secured by a deposit certificate of US$500,000 (Note 3).  As at February 29, 2020, the Company had received advances of $671,411 (US$500,000) (November 30, 2019 - $662,933 (US$498,857)) against this loan.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (continued)


On February 28, 2019, the Company closed its private placement offering of unsecured convertible debentures raising $3,526,468 (US$2,678,000).  Each debenture will mature two years from closing, will bear interest at 2% per annum, and can be converted into units at a price of US$1.50 per unit.  Each unit will consist of one common share and one share purchase warrant with each warrant entitling the holder to acquire one common share of the Company for US$1.75 up to February 28, 2021.


For accounting purposes, the convertible debentures are separated into their liability and equity components by first valuing the liability component.  The fair value of the liability component at the time of issue was calculated as the discounted cash flows for the convertible debentures assuming a 12% discount rate, which was the estimated rate for a similar debenture without a conversion feature.  The fair value of the equity component (conversion feature) was determined at the time of issue as the difference between the face value of the convertible debentures and the fair value of the liability component, less a deferred income tax adjustment to reflect the book to tax difference in value of the convertible debentures at the time of issuance.  As the Company has excess tax assets to offset the deferred tax liability, which was created from the book to tax difference in value of the convertible debentures, the deferred tax liability was reversed, resulting in a deferred tax recovery of $160,917.


Interest and accretion expense for the three months ended February 29, 2020 was $68,279 (February 28, 2019 - $Nil).


Subsequent to February 29, 2020, a portion of the debentures were converted into units (Note 25).

Loss per share


The basic and diluted loss per share attributable to the Company for the three months ended February 29, 2020 was $0.30 (February 28, 2019 - $0.48) and was based on the loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 5,448,552 (February 28, 2019 – 4,010,419).


The basic and diluted profit (loss) per share attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended February 29, 2020 was $0.00 (February 28, 2019 – ($0.01)) and was based on the profit (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 5,448,552 (February 28, 2019 – 4,010,419).


Stock options


The Company does not have a formal stock option plan.  The Company occasionally grants stock options to its employees, officers, directors and consultants to purchase common shares of the Company. The options granted are exercisable at a price which is equal to or greater than the fair market value of the common shares at the date the options are granted. The options are granted with varied vesting periods but generally vest immediately on grant. Options granted generally have a life of five years.


During the year ended November 30, 2019, the Company granted 461,500 stock options with a total fair value of $1,136,731 that vested immediately on grant.


During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the Company granted 50,000 stock options with a total fair value of $94,392 that vested immediately on grant.

SHARE CAPITAL AND RESERVES (continued)


Derivative liability


a)

On August 30, 2017, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement of 132,043 units for cash proceeds of $126,000. Each unit consisted of one “A” share purchase warrant and one “B” share purchase warrant. Each “A” warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company for a period of three years from closing at a price of $3.00 per warrant. Each “B” warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company for a period of three years from closing at a price of $6.00, repriced to USD$1.20 on October 18, 2019.  The warrant agreement provides an anti-dilution clause for each of the A and B warrants that, upon exercise of the warrants, will cause the Company to issue additional warrants sufficient to entitle the warrant holder to acquire 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.  Such right is limited to one exercise of either of the A and B warrants and all of the A warrants must be exercised prior to exercising any of the class B warrants.


The anti-dilution right for the A and B share purchase warrants was valued at $126,000 as at November 30, 2017 as the acquisition price approximated fair value due to the recency of the transaction.  During the year ended November 30, 2018, certain A warrants were exercised causing the rights to expire resulting in a decrease to the liability.


As at February 29, 2020, the rights attached to the B warrants were valued at $546,792 (November 30, 2019 - $1,102,277) resulting in a derivative gain of $555,485 for the three months ended February 29, 2020 (three months ended February 28, 2019 - $26,272).


The following weighted average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for the revaluation of the derivative liability as at February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019:

b)

Due to the Company changing its functional currency from the CAD to the USD during the year ended November 30, 2018, a derivative liability occurred on the date of change on the Company’s previously issued share purchase warrants with CAD exercise prices.  During the year ended November 30, 2019, the share purchase warrants with a CAD exercise price was repriced to USD resulting in the elimination of the derivative liability.


As at February 29, 2020, the Company revalued the derivative liability to $nil (November 30, 2019 - $nil) and recorded a gain of $nil (three months ended February 28, 2019 – $116,534).

CAPITAL DISCLOSURE AND MANAGEMENT


The Company defines its capital as shareholders’ equity. The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. 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. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements other than disclosed in Note 15.



21.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT


Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:


·

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 or indirectly; and

·

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumption that market participants would use in pricing.


The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, restricted cash, receivables, loans receivable, investment in equity instruments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, loans payable, convertible debentures, and derivative liability.  The fair value of receivables, loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, and loans payable approximates their carrying values.  Cash and restricted cash are measured at fair value using level 1 inputs.  Convertible debentures and derivative liability are measured using level 2 inputs.  The investment in equity instruments is measured at fair value using level 3 inputs.


As at February 29, 2020, the fair value of the level 3 asset was $1,732,798 (November 30, 2019 - $1,551,324) based on a multiple of 6.9 times management’s estimate of Waterproof’s expected earnings before interest, taxes, and expected amortization.  The Company’s investment in Waterproof does not have a quoted market price on an active market and the Company has assessed the fair value of the investment based on Waterproof’s unobservable earnings.  As a result, the fair value is classified as level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  The process of estimating the fair value of Waterproof is based on inherent measurement uncertainties and is based on techniques and assumptions that emphasize both qualitative and quantitative information.  There is no reasonable quantitative basis to estimate the potential effect of changing the assumptions to reasonably possible alternative assumptions on estimated fair value of the investment.


The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks by virtue of its activities including currency, credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk.


a)

Currency risk


Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s operations are carried out in Canada and the United States. As the Company’s functional currency is USD, the Company is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk on its net assets denominated in CAD which could have an adverse effect on the profitability of the Company. As at February 29, 2020, the Company had current assets totaling CAD$299,373 and current liabilities totalling CAD$2,444,499. A 1% change in the exchange rate would change other comprehensive income/loss by approximately US$16,000. At this time, the Company currently does not have plans to enter into foreign currency future contracts to mitigate this risk, however it may do so in the future.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)


b)

Credit risk


Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation.


The Company’s cash is held in a large Canadian financial institution. The Company maintains certain cash deposits with Schedule I financial institutions, which from time to time may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any significant credit losses and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk. The Company’s restricted cash is held with a law firm in trust in which credit risk exposure is low. The Company’s sales tax receivable is due from the Government of Canada; therefore, the credit risk exposure is low.


The maximum exposure to credit risk as at February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 is the carrying value of the loans receivable. The Company has allowed for an expected credit loss of $150,938 on the loans receivable as at February 29, 2020.  During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the Company increased the allowance by $5,507 which is included in statement of comprehensive loss.


c)

Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.  Financial assets and liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.  The Company does not hold any financial liabilities with variable interest rates.  As at February 29, 2020, the loans included in loans payable and convertible debentures bear interest at rates ranging from 3.5% to 14.4% per annum and are due on demand. The Company does maintain bank accounts which earn interest at variable rates but it does not believe it is currently subject to any significant interest rate risk.


d)

Liquidity risk


The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on management’s ability to raise required funding through future equity issuances and through short-term borrowing. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.  As at February 29, 2020, the Company had a cash balance, including restricted cash, of $735,536 to settle current financial liabilities of $6,188,155.  Additionally, as there is no assurance the convertible debentures will be converted into common shares of the Company, the Company is exposed to liquidity risk.

24.

SEGMENTED INFORMATION


During the years ended November 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had two offices: a head-office in Vancouver, BC, and Majesco’s office in New York, New York.  In evaluating performance, management does not distinguish or group its sales and cost of sales on a geographic basis. The Company has determined it had one reportable operating segment during the three months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019:  the investment in video games.


Revenue derived in the Company’s video games segment is earned from a large number of customers located throughout the world.  No one customer exceeds 5% of the Company’s sales.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




On August 9, 2018, the Company announced the successful closing of the proposed business combination with Liquid Canada by way of plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Arrangement"). Pursuant to the Arrangement, Liquid Canada was acquired by and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  As part of the Arrangement, on August 10, 2018, the Company changed its name to Liquid Media Group Ltd. and Liquid Canada changed its name to Liquid Media Group (Canada) Ltd.  At the time of completion of the Arrangement, the Company had 1,848,980 common shares issued and outstanding which included 1,288,497 common shares issued to former Liquid Canada shareholders, representing 69.69% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares. Initially, the common shares of the Company issued in connection with the Arrangement were listed on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “LBIX”. Effective August 10, 2018, the trading symbol of the Company was changed to “YVR”.


Upon closing of the transaction, the shareholders of Liquid Canada owned 69.69% of the common shares of the Company, and as a result, the transaction is considered a reverse acquisition of the Company by Liquid Canada. All previous common shares and warrants were exchanged at a ratio of one share of Liquid Canada for 0.5741 of a share of the Company (“Conversion Rate”). For accounting purposes, Liquid Canada is considered the acquirer and the Company, the acquiree. Accordingly, the MD&A is in the name of Liquid Media Group Ltd.; however, they are a continuation of the financial records of Liquid Canada.

·

·

CRITICAL JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the period.


Although management uses historical experience and its best knowledge of the amount, events or actions to form the basis for judgments and estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.


The most significant accounts that require estimates as the basis for determining the stated amounts include the valuation of convertible debentures, the valuation of investments in films and intangible assets including goodwill, the valuation of investments in equity instruments, the valuation of share-based compensation and other equity based payments and derivative liability, and the valuation of expected credit loss..


Significant judgements includes the determination of functional currency, assessments over level of control or influence over companies, and the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets.


Critical judgment exercised in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is as follows:


Level of control or influence over companies

The accounting for investments in other companies can vary depending on the degree of control and influence over those other companies.  Management is required to assess at each reporting date the Company’s control and influence over these other companies.  Management has used its judgment to determine which companies are controlled and require consolidation and those which are significantly influenced and require equity accounting.  The Company has considered its ownership position in Waterproof Studios Inc. (“Waterproof”) to constitute significant influence up to February 28, 2019 and thereafter does not have the ability to influence the key operating activities of the entity.  Accordingly, as of March 1, 2019 the Company has accounted for its investment under fair value through profit or loss.



Page 4




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




Functional currency

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the United States dollar (“USD”); however, determination of functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment which is re-evaluated for each new entity or if conditions change.  The Company’s functional currency changed from the Canadian dollar (“CAD”) on September 1, 2018 as a result of the Company being listed on the Nasdaq and management determining that all future financings will be completed in USD.


Income taxes

In assessing the probability of realizing income tax assets, management makes estimates related to expectation of future taxable income, applicable tax opportunities, expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences and the likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities. In making its assessments, management gives additional weight to positive and negative evidence that can be objectively verified.


Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustments are as follows:


Valuation of share-based compensation, investment in warrants, and convertible features

The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model for valuation of share-based compensation and other equity based payments. Option pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions including expected price volatility, interest rate, and forfeiture rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and the Company’s earnings and equity reserves.


Valuation of intangible assets including goodwill

Goodwill and intangible assets are tested for impairment at each reporting date.  Management first reviews qualitative factors in determining if an impairment needs to be recorded.  Quantitative factors are then used to calculate the amount of impairment, if needed.  Goodwill and intangibles resulted from a business acquisition.  Intangibles were valued based on estimated discounted cash flows.


Valuation of investment in equity instrument

The Company values its equity instruments in private companies at fair value at each reporting date.  The determination of fair value is based on estimates made by management on the expected earnings before income, taxes, and amortization multiplied by a reasonable factor for the appropriate industry applicable to the private company.


Valuation of expected credit loss

Loans receivables are assessed for an estimated credit loss at each reporting date.  The estimated loss is determined based on management’s knowledge of the debtor and their ability to repay the loan.  As the current debtors’ are private entities, management must rely on assertions provided to them from the debtor to make their estimates.


Valuation of convertible debentures

The equity portion of the convertible debenture is calculated using a discounted cash flow method which requires management to make an estimate on an appropriate discount rate.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Three Months Ended February 29, 2020


During the year ended November 30, 2019, the Company’s primary focus was on developing relationships through which the Company could expand its current gaming content.


Gross Profit (Loss)


Gross profit (loss) decreased by $351,374 to $(170,482) for the three months ended February 29, 2020 from $(521,856) for the comparable period in 2019.  The decrease in gross profit (loss) is attributable to the Company having one less video game platform license agreement to be amortized during the current period.


Operating Expenses


For the three months ended February 29, 2020, operating expenses decreased by $211,617 from $1,903,192 in the three months ended February 28, 2019 to $1,691,575 in the three months ended February 29, 2020 primarily as a result of:


Operating Expense

Increase / Decrease in Expenses

Explanation for Change

Accretion expense

Increase of $60,625

Increased due to the requirement to accrete the equity portion of the convertible debentures.  No accretion was required in the comparative period.

Marketing

Increase of $965,493

Increased due to the Company completing a digital marketing campaign which increased awareness of the Company.

Professional fees

Decrease of $52,300

Decrease due to less legal fees incurred in relation to the lawsuit brought on by the former President and director or the Company which was partially offset by increased accounting and audit fees associated with filing the Company’s 2019 YE.

Share-based compensation

Decrease of $1,166,672

Decreased due to no options being issued in the current period.


Other Income (Expenses)


The following occurred during the three months ended February 29, 2020 as compared to the three months ended February 28, 2019:

·

The Company recorded a decrease in the share of profit of equity investment of $195,726 from its investment in Waterproof due to the loss of significant control on March 1, 2019.

·

The Company recorded an increase in gain on derivative liability of $549,377 due to the revaluation of the derivative liabilities at the end of the current period.

·

The Company recorded an increase in the gain on settlement of debt of $88,458 in relation to the settling of various debt through the issuance of the Company’s common shares during the current period as compared to the settlements recorded in the comparative period.

·

The Company recorded an increase in the unrealized gains on equity instruments of $162,177 relating to the revaluation of the Company’s investment in Waterproof at the end of the current period.  No revaluation was done in the comparative period as the investment was previously held as an equity investment.

The quarterly fluctuations in net loss are generally correlated to the level of management’s activities related to the acquisition of companies, rights, licenses and other projects.  Loss is also impacted by the non-cash fluctuations in the Company’s share of loss in Waterproof, non-cash listing expense, amortization of licensing agreements, share based compensation and other corporate costs.  Comprehensive loss is impacted by the foreign currency translation adjustment resulting from the Company reporting their financial statements in CAD rather than their functional currency of USD.

During the quarter ended August 31, 2018 (2018 Q3), a listing expense of $4,130,557 was recorded in relation to the Arrangement with Liquid Canada along with increased professional fees.  During the quarter ended November 30, 2018 (2018 Q4), the Company incurred increased consulting fees with the acquisition of Majesco, increased professional fees relating to the Arrangement with Liquid Canada, and increased fair value adjustments from the recognition of warrants due to the change in the Company’s functional currency.  During the quarter ended February 28, 2019 (2019 Q1), the Company recorded share-based compensation of $1,166,672 due to the granting of stock options during the quarter and continued graded vesting from stock options issued in fiscal 2018.  During the quarter ended May 31, 2019 (2019 Q2), the Company initiated a digital marketing campaign.  During the quarter ended November 30, 3019 (2019 Q4), the Company wrote-off one license for $717,125 and incurred additional marketing costs of $673,880.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


As at February 29, 2020, the Company has current assets of $1,812,792 and current liabilities of $6,121,013, which results in working capital deficit of $4,308,221 (November 30, 2019 – working capital of $544,349).


The Company does not have adequate operating revenue to finance its existing obligations and therefore must continue to rely on external financing to generate capital to maintain its capacity to meet working capital requirements. The Company has relied on debt and equity raises to finance its operating activities since incorporation. The Company intends to continue to rely on debt and the issuance of shares to finance its operations. However, there is a risk that additional financing will not be available on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company.



Cash Flows


The table below sets forth a summary of cash flow activity and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s cash flow statements:

The cash flow used in operating activities increased by $16,805 to $(1,111,221) for the three months ended February 29, 2020 from $(1,128,026) compared to the comparative period. The decline in cash flow from operating activities represents the effect on cash flows from net losses adjusted for items not affecting cash, principally: accrued interest income and expenses, amortization and accretion, share-based compensation expense, changes in the value of derivatives, gains and losses on the settlement of debt, unrealized foreign exchange, the share of profit of its equity investment, the unrealized gains on the revaluation of equity instruments, and the write off of various items, in addition to net changes in non-cash balances relating to operations.


Cash used by investing activities for three months ended February 29, 2020 decreased by $4,323,490 compared to the comparative period mostly due to the Company acquiring a portfolio of assets including certain streaming platforms for US$3,325,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




Cash provided by financing activities for three months ended February 29, 2020 decreased by $2,667,001 compared to the comparative period mostly due to the Company closing its private placement offering of unsecured convertible debentures by raising $3,502,793 during the comparative period.



OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS


The Company did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as at February 29, 2020 or November 30, 2019.



COMMITMENTS


As at February 29, 2020, the Company is committed to issuing $901,542 worth of the Company’s common shares of which none have been issued subsequently.  The Company had no other commitments as at February 29, 2020 and the date of this report.



CONTINGENCIES


In January 2020, a consultant of the Company filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against the Company for approximately $400,000 for unpaid consulting fees, US$500,000 for the unpaid cash consideration for the purchase of 51% interest in Majesco, and a payment for the difference between US$500,000 and the value of the Company’s shares issued on the purchase of the 51% interest in Majesco.  The Company has accrued $1,071,411 in these financial statements.  Management is currently seeking legal advice on this lawsuit.


In February 2020, a consultant of the Company filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against the Company in relation to the issuance of a share certificate for 59,706 common shares of the Company, 32,149 of which the consultant states is owing to him and general and special damages in relation to the shares.  Management is currently seeking legal advice on this lawsuit.  No provision has been included in these financial statements.



TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES


Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, directly or indirectly. Key management personnel include the Company’s executive officers and Board of Director members.


During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the Company entered into the following transactions with related parties:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT


Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:


·

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 or indirectly; and

·

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumption that market participants would use in pricing.


The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, restricted cash, receivables, loans receivable, investment in equity instruments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, loans payable, convertible debentures, and derivative liability.  The fair value of receivables, loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, and loans payable approximates their carrying values.  Cash and restricted cash are measured at fair value using level 1 inputs.  Convertible debentures and derivative liability are measured using level 2 inputs.  The investment in equity instruments is measured at fair value using level 3 inputs.


As at February 29, 2020, the fair value of the level 3 asset was $1,732,798 (November 30, 2019 - $1,551,324) based on a multiple of 6.9 times management’s estimate of Waterproof’s expected earnings before interest, taxes, and expected amortization.  The Company’s investment in Waterproof does not have a quoted market price on an active market and the Company has assessed the fair value of the investment based on Waterproof’s unobservable earnings.  As a result, the fair value is classified as level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  The process of estimating the fair value of Waterproof is based on inherent measurement uncertainties and is based on techniques and assumptions that emphasize both qualitative and quantitative information.  There is no reasonable quantitative basis to estimate the potential effect of changing the assumptions to reasonably possible alternative assumptions on estimated fair value of the investment.


The Company is exposed to a variety of financial risks by virtue of its activities including currency, credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk.


a)

Currency risk


Foreign currency exchange rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s operations are carried out in Canada and the United States. As at February 29, 2020, the Company had current assets totaling CAD$299,373 and current liabilities totalling CAD$2,444,499. These factors expose the Company to foreign currency exchange rate risk, which could have an adverse effect on the profitability of the Company. A 1% change in the exchange rate would change other comprehensive income/loss by approximately US$16,000. At this time, the Company currently does not have plans to enter into foreign currency future contracts to mitigate this risk, however it may do so in the future.


b)

Credit risk


Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation.


The Company’s cash is held in a large Canadian financial institution and a Bahamas based financial institution. The Company maintains certain cash deposits with Schedule I financial institutions, which from time to time may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any significant credit losses and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk. The Company’s restricted cash is held with a law firm in trust in which credit risk exposure is low. The Company’s sales tax receivable is due from the Government of Canada; therefore, the credit risk exposure is low.



Page 12




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




The maximum exposure to credit risk as at February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 is the carrying value of the loans receivable. The Company has allowed for an expected credit loss of $150,938 on the loans receivable as at February 29, 2020.  During the three months ended February 29, 2020, the Company increased the allowance by $5,507 which is included in statement of comprehensive loss.


c)

Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.  Financial assets and liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.  The Company does not hold any financial liabilities with variable interest rates.  As at February 29, 2020, the loans included in loans payable and convertible debentures bear interest at rates ranging from 3.5% to 14.4% per annum and are due on demand. The Company does maintain bank accounts which earn interest at variable rates but it does not believe it is currently subject to any significant interest rate risk.


d)

Liquidity risk


The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on management’s ability to raise required funding through future equity issuances and through short-term borrowing. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.  As at February 29, 2020, the Company had a cash balance, including restricted cash, of $735,536 to settle current financial liabilities of $6,121,014.  Additionally, as there is no assurance the convertible debentures will be converted into common shares of the Company, the Company is exposed to liquidity risk



OTHER RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES


The business and operations of the Company are subject to numerous risks, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. The Company considers the risks set out below to be some of the most significant to potential investors in the Company, but not all of the risks are associated with an investment in securities of the Company. If any of these risks materialize into actual events or circumstances or other possible additional risks and uncertainties of which the Company is currently unaware or which it considers to be material in relation to the Company’s business actually occur, the Company’s assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations (including future results of operations), business and business prospects, are likely to be materially and adversely affected. In such circumstances, the price of the Company’s securities could decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment.


Global Pandemics


In March 2020 the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, customers, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including ours. This outbreak could decrease spending, adversely affect demand for our product and harm our business and results of operations. It is not possible for us to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on our business or results of operations at this time.



Page 13




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




Limited Operating History


The Company was created on August 8, 2018 as the resulting issuer of a business combination by plan of arrangement between Liquid Canada and the Company. We cannot assure you that our revenue will increase, or that we will be able to operate profitably in future periods. Our limited operating history and evolving business make the prediction of future results of operations difficult and, therefore, past results should not be taken as indicative of our future performance. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and challenges that we will face as an early-stage gaming, TV, film media and entertainment company operating in highly competitive, rapidly evolving, and challenging markets. If we fail to address the risks and challenges that we face, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.


Competition


Competition in our industry is intense and we expect new competitors to continue to emerge throughout the world. Our competitors range from large established companies to emerging start-ups. In our industry, though many new products and services are regularly introduced, only a relatively small number of “hit” titles accounts for a significant portion of total revenue for the industry. We do not yet have a significant number of titles that we develop and the underperformance of a title may have a large adverse impact on our financial results. Also, hit products or services offered by our competitors may take a larger share of consumer spending than we anticipate, which could cause revenue generated from our products and services to fall below expectations.


In addition, both the online and mobile games marketplaces are characterized by frequent product introductions, relatively low barriers to entry, and new and evolving business methods, technologies and platforms for development. We expect competition in these markets to intensify. If our competitors develop and market more successful products or services, offer competitive products or services at lower price points or based on payment models perceived as offering a better value proposition (such as free-to-play or subscription-based models), or if we do not continue to develop consistently high-quality and well-received products and services, our revenue, margins, and profitability will decline.


The highly competitive market is characterized by pressure to innovate, expand feature sets and functionality, accelerate new product releases and reduce prices. Within the video game segment of the entertainment industry, we compete with other publishers of entertainment software developed for use on the PC, video game consoles and handheld, mobile and tablet devices or social networking sites. Our competitors include very large corporations with significantly greater financial, marketing and product development resources than we have. A relatively small number of titles account for a significant portion of net revenues, and an even greater portion of net profit, in the game entertainment industry, and the availability of significant financial resources is a major competitive factor in the production of high-quality products and in the marketing of products that are ultimately well-received. Our larger competitors may be able to deliver greater innovation, respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in market demand, devote more resources to the development, marketing and sale of their products, successfully expand into emerging and other international markets, or price their products more aggressively than we can. If our competitors are more successful than we are in developing products, or in attracting and retaining customers, our financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.


History of Operating Losses and Negative Cash Flows


We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flows. We anticipate that our operating expenses will increase substantially in the foreseeable future as we increase our sales and marketing activities, and continue to develop our technology, products, projects, and services. For example, we will need additional funds to add to our content library and for development costs incurred to develop new games and redevelop our retro games, for production costs incurred in connection with the development of film and tv projects, costs related to our cloud-based network initiative, and for licensing and distribution expenses. These efforts may prove more expensive than we currently anticipate and we may incur significant additional costs and expenses in connection with our business development activities. In addition, our film and gaming content



Page 14




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



creation operations are relatively capital intensive while revenue-generating opportunities depend on the availability of projects in the market. During periods of low project volumes, fixed costs can result in operating losses. All of these costs and expenses could prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability in future periods.


Product Development Risks


We depend on our internal development studios and third-party software developers to develop new interactive entertainment software within anticipated release schedules and cost projections. The development cycle for emulated titles generally ranges from 3 months to 12 months and for new titles 6 months to 2 years. Therefore our development costs can be substantial. If we or our third party developers experience unanticipated development delays, financial difficulties or additional costs, we may not be able to release titles according to our schedule and at budgeted costs. There can be no assurance that our products will be sufficiently successful so that we can recoup these costs or make a profit on these products.


Additionally, in order to stay competitive, our internal development studios must anticipate and adapt to rapid technological changes affecting software development. Any inability to respond to technological advances and implement new technologies could render our products obsolete or less marketable. Further, the failure to pursue the development of new technology, platforms, or business models that obtain meaningful commercial success in a timely manner may negatively affect our business, resulting in increased production costs and more strenuous competition.


Financing Risks


We have limited capital and we may require funds in excess of our existing cash resources to fund operating deficits, develop new products or services, establish and expand our marketing capabilities, and finance general and administrative activities. We do not currently generate sufficient cash from our businesses to fund our operations. We do not have any bank credit facility or other working capital credit line under which we may borrow funds for working capital or other general corporate purposes. We have plans to implement a crowdfunding portal through which we may raise money from investors to fund our operations in the gaming, film and TV industry segments, but we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds we need in that manner. If we do not have, or are not able to obtain, sufficient funds, we may have to delay strategic opportunities, investments, or projects. If we are unable to raise adequate funds, we may have to liquidate some or all of our assets, or delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate some or all of our creative work. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.


Reliance on Market Acceptance


While we believe that there will be significant customer demand for our game, tv, and film offerings and services, there is no assurance that there will be broad market acceptance of our offerings. There also may not be broad market acceptance of the Company's offerings if its competitors offer products or services that are preferred by prospective customers. Customers consider many factors when evaluating our products relative to those of our competitors, including innovation, ease of use, price, feature sets, functionality, reliability, performance, reputation, and training and support, and we may not compare favorably against our competitors in all respects. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful in the near future, or at all, or that our competitors will not take significant market share in similar efforts. If we fail to develop new products and to manage new product introductions and transitions properly, or if our offerings do not receive market acceptance, our financial condition and operating results could be harmed.


Failure to Launch Commercially Successful New Products


In order for our media and entertainment business strategy to succeed over time, we will need to license, acquire, or develop new digital entertainment products that can generate additional revenue and diversify our revenue sources. A number of factors, including technical difficulties, government approvals and licenses of intellectual property right required for launching new products, lack of sufficient development personnel and other resources, and adverse developments in our relationship with the licensors of our new licensed



Page 15




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



products could result in delay in launching our new products. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet our timetable for development of our business.


There are many factors that may adversely affect the popularity of our new products. For example, we may fail to anticipate and adapt to future technical trends and new business models, fail to satisfy consumer preferences and requirements, fail to effectively plan and organize marketing and promotion activities, fail to effectively detect and prevent programming errors or defects in the products, and fail to operate our new products at acceptable costs. We cannot assure you that our new products will gain market acceptance and become commercially successful. If we are not able to license, develop or acquire additional digital entertainment products that are commercially successful, our future revenues and profitability may decline. If our games and other entertainment offerings do not meet consumer expectations, whether because they fail to function as advertised or otherwise, our sales may suffer. If our games and services do not function as consumers expect, it may negatively impact our business.


Rapid Technological Change


The entertainment industry in general, and the gaming, tv and film segments thereof in particular, are rapidly evolving, primarily as a result of free content, minimal entry costs for creation and distribution, and expanded use of mobile devices. We must continually anticipate and adapt our products to emerging technologies, delivery platforms and business models in order to stay competitive and try to predict and prepare for rapid changes in consumer demand that could materially alter public preferences for different forms of entertainment and leisure activities. The rapid growth of technology and shifting consumer tastes prevent us from being able to accurately predict the overall effect that technological growth may have on our potential revenue and profitability. When we choose to incorporate a new technology into a product or to develop a product for a new platform, operating system or media format, we often are required to make a substantial investment prior to the introduction of the product. If we invest in the development of products incorporating a new technology or for a new platform that does not achieve significant commercial success, our revenues from those products likely will be lower than we anticipated and may not cover our development costs. Further, our competitors may adapt to an emerging technology or business model more quickly or effectively than we do, creating products that are technologically superior to ours, more appealing to consumers, or both. If, on the other hand, we elect not to pursue the development of products incorporating a new technology or for new platforms, or otherwise elect not to pursue a new business model, that achieves significant commercial success, it may have adverse consequences. It may take significant time and resources to shift product development resources to that technology, platform or business model, as the case may be, and may be more difficult to compete against existing products incorporating that technology or for that platform or against companies using that business model. Any failure to successfully adapt to, and appropriately allocate resources among, emerging technologies and to keep pace with rapid technological change could negatively impact our business and prevent us from achieving profitability or sustaining a meaningful market position.


Development of Commercially Successful Products


The Company is a provider of video game products primarily for the casual-game consumer and has published video games for interactive entertainment hardware platforms, including Nintendo’s DS, 3DS, Wii and WiiU, Sony’s PlayStation 3 and 4, or PS3 and PS4, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Xbox One and the personal computer, or PC.  The success of our business is subject to the continued popularity of these platforms and our ability to develop commercially successful products for these platforms.


Royalty Rates Set By Platform Providers


In order to provide products and service for a video game system such as Nintendo’s DS, 3DS, Wii and WiiU, Sony’s PlayStation 3 and 4, or PS3 and PS4, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Xbox One, we must take a license from Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft, respectively, which give these companies the opportunity to set the fee structure that we must pay in order to provide games for that platform. Similarly, these companies have retained the flexibility to change their fee structures, or adopt different fee structures for online purchases of games, online gameplay and other new features for their consoles. The control that hardware manufacturers have over the fee structures for their platforms and online access could adversely impact our



Page 16




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



costs, profitability and margins. Because providing products for video game systems is the largest portion of our business, any increase in fee structures would significantly harm our ability to generate profits.


Potential Acquisitions in the Industry


As part of our growth strategy, we may selectively pursue strategic acquisitions in our industry and related industries. We may not be able to consummate such acquisitions, which could adversely impact our growth. If we do consummate acquisitions, integrating an acquired company, business or technology may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures, including:

·

increased expenses due to transaction and integration costs;

·

potential liabilities of the acquired businesses;

·

potential adverse tax and accounting effects of the acquisitions;

·

diversion of capital and other resources from our existing businesses;

·

diversion of our management’s attention during the acquisition process and any transition periods;

·

loss of key employees of the acquired businesses following the acquisition; and

·

inaccurate budgets and projected financial statements due to inaccurate valuation assessments of the acquired businesses.


Our evaluations of potential acquisitions may not accurately assess the value or prospects of acquisition candidates and the anticipated benefits from our future acquisitions may not materialize. In addition, future acquisitions or dispositions could result in potentially dilutive issuances of our equity securities, including our common stock, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or amortization expenses, or write-offs of goodwill, any of which could harm our financial condition.


Dependant on Certain Key Personnel


We are dependent upon the services of key executives, including our chairman, Joshua Jackson, and our CFO, Daniel Cruz. The loss of our executive officers or our other key personnel, particularly with little or no notice, could cause delays on projects and could have an adverse impact on our client and industry relationships, our business, operating results or financial condition.


Due to the relatively small size of our company, the loss of key persons or our inability to attract and retain additional highly-skilled employees may adversely affect our business and future operations. The loss of one or more key employees or contractors, if not replaced, could adversely affect Liquid’s project exploration and development programs, consolidated operations and financial condition.


Retention of Skilled Management


Our success depends to a significant extent on our ability to identify, hire, and retain qualified creative, technical and managerial personnel in a competitive job market. We expect competition for personnel with the specialized creative and technical skills needed to create our products and provide our services will continue to intensify in future. Our competitors may be able to offer a work environment with higher compensation or more opportunities to work with cutting-edge technology than we can. If we are unable to retain our key personnel or appropriately match skill sets with our needs, we would be required to expend significant time and financial resources to identify and hire new qualified personnel and to transfer significant internal historical knowledge, which might significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives.


Limited Public Company Experience of Management


Members of our management team have limited experience managing a publicly-traded company, interacting with public company investors, and complying with the increasingly complex laws, rules and regulations that govern public companies. These obligations will require significant attention from our management and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of our business. In the event that our management team are not successful or efficient as managers of a public company, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.




Page 17




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




Legal Proceedings


From time to time, we may be involved in claims, suits, government investigations, audits and proceedings arising from the ordinary course of our business. Such claims, suits, government investigations, audits and proceedings are inherently uncertain and their results cannot be predicted with certainty. Regardless of the outcome, such legal proceedings can have an adverse impact on us because of legal costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.


Adverse Changes in the Economy


Most of our products and services involve discretionary spending on the part of consumers. We believe that consumer spending is influenced by general economic conditions and the availability of discretionary income. This makes our products particularly sensitive to general economic conditions and economic cycles as consumers are generally more willing to make discretionary purchases, including purchases of products like ours, during periods in which favorable economic conditions prevail. Adverse economic conditions such as a prolonged general economic downturn, including periods of increased inflation, unemployment levels, tax rates, interest rates, energy prices or declining consumer confidence could also reduce consumer spending. Reduced consumer spending may result in reduced demand for our products and may also require increased selling and promotional expenses, which may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, uncertainty and adverse changes in the economy could also increase costs associated with developing and publishing our products, increase the cost and availability of sources of financing, and increase our exposure to material losses from bad debts, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. If economic conditions worsen, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.


Management of Potential Growth


For us to succeed, our business needs to experience significant expansion. There can be no assurance that it will achieve this expansion. This expansion, if accomplished, may place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources. To manage any material growth, we will be required to implement operational and financial systems, procedures and controls. We will also be required to expand our finance, administrative and operations staff. There can be no assurance that our current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our future operations at any increased level. Our failure to manage growth effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.


Limited Number of Suppliers


We rely on a limited number of suppliers for hardware, software, and film and gaming production equipment. While other sources of supply do exist for this equipment, an unexpected disruption in supply or an increase in pricing could have a negative impact on our earnings.


Dependence on Trademarks and Copyrights


We hold a number of trademarks and copyrights relating to certain significant products. We rely on trademark laws and contractual provisions to protect these trademarks and copyrights, and there can be no assurance that third parties will not infringe or misappropriate our trademarks and copyrights. Existing trade secret, copyright and trademark laws offer only limited protection and do not account for common law claims. Furthermore, the monitoring and enforcement against the unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights could entail significant expenses and could prove difficult or impossible. As well, the laws of other countries in which we may choose to market our products may afford little or no effective protection of our intellectual property. If we lose some or all of our intellectual property rights, our business may be materially adversely affected.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




Intellectual Property Claims


Development of original content, including publication and distribution, sometimes results in claims of intellectual property infringement. Although we make efforts to ensure our products do not violate the intellectual property rights of others, it is possible that third parties may still allege infringement. These claims and any litigation resulting from these claims may be time consuming and costly to defend, divert management attention, and result in damage awards payable by us. They could also prevent us from selling the affected product; or require us to redesign the affected product to avoid infringement or obtain a license for future sales of the affected product or prevent us from utilizing important technologies, ideas or formats.


Security Breaches


We securely store the source code for our interactive entertainment software products as it is created. A breach, whether physical, electronic or otherwise, of the systems on which such source code and other sensitive data are stored could lead to damage or piracy of our software. In addition, certain parties with whom we do business are given access to our sensitive and proprietary information in order to provide services and support our team. These third parties may misappropriate our information and engage in unauthorized use of it. If we are subject to data security breaches, we may have a loss in sales or increased costs arising from the restoration or implementation of additional security measures which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. Any theft and/or unauthorized use or publication of our trade secrets and other confidential business information as a result of such an event could adversely affect our competitive position, reputation, brand, and future sales of our products. Our business could be subject to significant disruption, and we could suffer monetary and other losses and reputational harm, in the event of such incidents and claims.


Retention of NASDAQ Listing


Our common shares currently trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market. Following our business combination in August 2018, we were required to establish compliance with the NASDAQ initial listing requirements, which we did in October 2018. NASDAQ has continued listing requirements that we must maintain to avoid delisting. The standards include, among others, a minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share and any of: (i) a minimum stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million; (ii) a market value of listed securities of $35 million; or (iii) net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the last three fiscal years. Our results of operations and our fluctuating shares price directly impact our ability to satisfy these listing standards. If we are unable to maintain these listing standards, we may be subject to delisting.


A delisting from NASDAQ would result in our common shares being eligible for quotation on the over-the-counter market which is generally considered to be a less efficient system than listing on markets such as NASDAQ or other national exchanges because of lower trading volumes, transaction delays, and reduced security analyst and news media coverage. These factors could contribute to lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for our common shares. Additionally, trading of our common shares on the OTCBB may make us less desirable to institutional investors and may, therefore, limit our future equity funding options and could negatively affect the liquidity of our shares.


If we make a significant acquisition that requires the issuance of our common shares, we may be required to reapply for NASDAQ listing.


Reapplying for NASDAQ listing may require us to satisfy the more stringent original listing standards of the NASDAQ Capital Market, which has substantially higher standards than the continuing listing standards. If any such application is not approved, our shares of common shares could be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS




Dilution to Current Shareholders


In order to finance our operations, we have raised funds through the issuance of common shares and securities convertible into common shares and may do so again in future. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of common shares or the size or terms of future issuances of debt instruments or other securities convertible into common shares, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of our securities will have on the market price of our common shares. Sales or issuances of substantial numbers of common shares, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect the market price of our common shares. With any additional sale or issuance of common shares, or securities convertible into common shares, our investors will suffer dilution to their voting power.


Loss of “Foreign Private Issuer” Status


In order to maintain our current status as a “foreign private issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the United States Securities Act of 1933), where more than 50% of our outstanding voting securities are directly or indirectly owned by residents of the United States, we must not have any of the following: (i) a majority of our executive officers or directors being U.S. citizens or residents, (ii) more than 50% of our assets being located in the United States, or (iii) our business being principally administered in the United States. If we were to lose our foreign private issuer status:

·

we would no longer be exempt from certain of the provisions of U.S. securities laws, such as Regulation FD and the Section 16 short swing profit rules;

·

we would be required to commence reporting on forms required of U.S. companies, such as Forms l0-K, 10-Q and 8-K, rather than the forms currently available to us, such as Forms 20-F and 6-K;

·

we would be subject to additional restrictions on offers and sales of securities outside the United States, including in Canada;

·

we might lose the ability to rely upon exemptions from the NASDAQ corporate governance requirements that are available to foreign private issuers; and

·

if we engage in capital raising activities after losing our foreign private issuer status, there is a higher likelihood that investors may require the Company to file resale registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a condition to any such financing.


Characterization as a Passive Foreign Investment Company


If 75% or more of our gross income in a taxable year, including our pro-rata share of the gross income of any company, U.S. or foreign, in which we are considered to own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the shares by value, is passive income, then we will be a passive foreign investment company, or “PFIC,” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Alternatively, we will be considered to be a PFIC if at least 50% of our assets in a taxable year, averaged over the year and ordinarily determined based on fair market value and including our pro-rata share of the assets of any company in which we are considered to own, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Once treated as a PFIC, for any taxable year, a foreign corporation will generally continue to be treated as a PFIC for all subsequent taxable years for any shareholder who owned shares of the foreign corporation when it was treated as a PFIC. If we were to be a PFIC, and a U.S. holder does not make an election to treat us as a “qualified electing fund,” or QEF, or a “mark-to-market” election, “excess distributions” to a U.S. holder, and any gain recognized by a U.S. holder on a disposition of our ordinary shares, would be taxed in an unfavorable way. Among other consequences, our dividends, to the extent that they constituted excess distributions, would be taxed at the regular rates applicable to ordinary income, rather than the 20% maximum rate applicable to certain dividends received by an individual from a qualified foreign corporation, and certain “interest” charges may apply. In addition, gains on the sale of our ordinary shares would be treated in the same way as excess distributions.


The tests for determining PFIC status are applied annually and it is difficult to make accurate predictions of future income and assets, which are relevant to the determination of PFIC status. In addition, under the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions, it is unclear whether we would be permitted to use a gross loss from sales (sales less cost of goods sold) to offset our passive income in the calculation of gross income. Although we do not expect that we will be a PFIC in the future, in light of the periodic asset and



Page 20




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



income tests applicable in making this determination, no assurance can be given that we will not become a PFIC. If we do become a PFIC in the future, U.S. holders who hold ordinary shares during any period when we are a PFIC will be subject to the foregoing rules, even if we cease to be a PFIC, subject to exceptions for U.S. holders who made a timely QEF or mark-to-market election, or certain other elections. We do not currently intend to prepare or provide the information that would enable our shareholders to make a QEF election.


Payment of Dividends


We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common shares and do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund the growth of our business. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common shares will be the sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.


Sales of a Substantial Number of Our Common Shares


Our common shares are traded on the NASDAQ under the symbol “YVR.”  The concurrent sale of a substantial number of our common shares in the public market could cause a reduction in the market price of our common shares.


Enforcement of Judgements Against the Company


We are a company incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, all but one of our directors and officers are residents of Canada and all our assets and operations are located outside of the United States, with the exception of Majesco. It may not be possible for shareholders to enforce in Canada judgments against the Company obtained in the United States, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.


While reciprocal enforcement of judgment legislation exists between Canada and the United States, we and our insiders may have defenses available to avoid in Canada the effect of U.S. judgments under Canadian law, making enforcement difficult or impossible. There is uncertainty as to whether Canadian courts would enforce (a) judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or our insiders predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal and state securities laws or (b) in original actions brought in Canada, liabilities against us or our insiders predicated upon the U.S. federal and state securities laws. Therefore, our shareholders in the United States may have to avail themselves of remedies under Canadian corporate and securities laws for any perceived oppression, breach of fiduciary duty and like legal complaints. Canadian law may not provide for remedies equivalent to those available under U.S. law.



CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The Company has adopted the following accounting standards effective December 1, 2019, which had no significant impact on the consolidated financial statements:

·

IFRS 16 - Leases

·

IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty Over Income Tax Treatments



DISCLOSURE OF CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


The CFO, together with other members of management, have designed the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures in order to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries would be known to them, and by others, within those entities.



Page 21




MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS





Management has also designed internal controls over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS.  Management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the three months ended February 29, 2020. Due to the transition following the Company’s plan of arrangement in fiscal 2018, Management identified a material weakness related to segregation of duties and retained an external accounting firm to provide financial and accounting services to the Company.


While the officers of the Company have designed the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, they expect that these controls and procedures may not prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
