INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Shareholders of Resverlogix Corp.

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Resverlogix Corp. (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at December 31, 2022 and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders' equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 3 in the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the Compay has incurred significant losses to date, and with no assumption of revenues, is dependent on its ability to raise additional financial capital if it is to remain as a going concern.

As stated in Note 3, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 3, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

In addition to the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter to be communicated in our auditor's report.

Evaluation of the Fair Value of Royalty Preferred Shares

Refer to consolidated financial statement Note 5: Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions and Note

12: Royalty preferred shares

The Company records royalty preferred shares at fair value, which is $43.7 million as at December 31, 2022. The determination of the fair value of the royalty preferred shares includes significant assumptions regarding the timing and amount of future cash flows derived from revenues of products currently under development and the discount rate applied to those cash flows. The Company utilizes an internal valuation model to determine the fair value of the royalty preferred shares.

We considered the valuation of royalty preferred shares to be a key audit matter due to its complexity and heightened estimation uncertainty. Management employed significant assumptions in the internal valuation model which are based on unobservable direct inputs, such as the timing and duration of clinical trials, the probability of successful product approval by regulatory authorities, potential patient populations, expected pricing, and the discount rate applied to the expected cash flows.

How the Key Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the evaluation of the fair value of royalty preferred shares included the following, among others:

Obtained an understanding of the royalty preferred shares valuation model by discussing the

  • methodology, data inputs, and significant assumptions with management.
    Evaluated the reasonableness of the timing and amount of future revenues used in the valuation model by inspecting market data and other publicly-available information from industry experts and
  • health authorities.
    Performed sensitivity analyses to assess how changes in significant assumptions would impact the
  • valuation model.
    Involved internal valuation specialists to assist in evaluating the methodology employed by management in the determination of the discount rates applied in the valuation model and developing independent ranges for management's discount rate assumptions using publicly available market data
  • for comparable companies.

Other Matter

The consolidated financial statements of Company for the year ended December 31, 2021, were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements on March 31, 2022.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  • Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Danny Tomassini.
