After application of the equity method, the Company determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional impairment loss on its<br />
investment in its associate. The Company determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in<br />
the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable<br />
amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in the ‘share of profit of an associate’ in the consolidated statement<br />
of operations.<br />
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate, the Company measures and recognises any retaining investment at its fair value. Any<br />
difference between the carrying amount of the associate upon loss of significant influence and the fair value of the retained investment and<br />
proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.<br />
f) Financial instruments<br />
The classification and measurement of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:<br />
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss<br />
Cash and restricted cash are respectively classified and designated as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. They are measured at<br />
fair value and changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.<br />
Loans and receivables<br />
Accounts receivable and share subscription receivable, excluding tax credits receivable and sales taxes receivable, are classified as loans and<br />
receivables. They are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.<br />
Available-for-sale assets<br />
The convertible preferred shares of AM-Pharma Holding B.V., a private company, are classified as available-for-sale and are measured at cost.<br />
Financial liabilities<br />
Bank and other loans, trade and other payables, promissory notes from shareholders, repayable government grants and advance on revenues<br />
from a supply agreement are classified as other financial liabilities. They are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.<br />
Long-term debt provided by shareholders, finance leases obligations and advance on revenues from a supply agreement are classified as other<br />
financial liabilities. They are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method. Financing costs are applied against long-term<br />
debt.<br />
Impairment of investments<br />
When, in management’s opinion, there has been a significant or prolonged decline in value of an investment, the investment is written down to<br />
recognize the loss. In determining the estimated realizable value of its investment, management relies on its judgment and knowledge of each<br />
investment as well as on assumptions about general business and economic conditions that prevail or are expected to prevail.<br />
g) Inventories<br />
Inventories of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined<br />
on a first in, first out basis.<br />
h) Capital assets<br />
Capital assets are recorded at cost less any government assistance, accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.<br />
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as described below.<br />
