CERTAIN INFORMATION

As used in this Annual Report on Form 20-F (the “Annual Report”), unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references to

In this Annual Report on Form 20-F, references to “Canada” are to Canada and its provinces and territories. References to “U.S.” or “United States” refers to the United States of America. References to “$,” “USD,” “dollars,” “USD$” or “U.S. dollars” are to the legal currency of the United States and references to “C$,” or “Canadian dollar” are to the legal currency of Canada.

Solely for the convenience of the reader, this Annual Report on Form 20-F contains translations of certain Canadian dollar amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates. Except as otherwise stated in this Annual Report on Form 20-F, all translations from Canadian dollar to U.S. dollars are based on the closing rate of C$1.3574 per $1.00 for cable transfers of Canadian dollars, as certified by Bank of Canada on March 31, 2024. The noon buying rate for Canadian dollar was $1.3574 per US$1.00. No representation is made that such Canadian dollar amounts referred to in this Annual Report on Form 20-F could have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars at such rates or any other rates. Any discrepancies in any table between totals and sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding.

The audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022 included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 20-F have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, or IFRS. Our fiscal year end is March 31.

Share Consolidation (“Reverse Split”)

On July 5, 2023, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to effect a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common shares at a ratio of 1-for-50 (the “Share Consolidation”). All shares, warrants and stock options in the financial statements are on post-consolidated basis.

On August 22, 2023, we began trading on NASDAQ under the symbols FMST and FMSTW.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report contains many statements that are “forward-looking” and uses forward-looking terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “ought to,” “plan,” “possible,” “potentially,” “predicts,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” negatives of such terms or other similar statements. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement due to its inherent risk and uncertainties, both general and specific. Although we believe the assumptions on which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable and within the bounds of our knowledge of our business and operations as of the date of this Annual Report, any or all of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate. As a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions could also be incorrect. The forward-looking statements in this Annual Report include, without limitation, statements relating to:

iii

The forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about our businesses and business environments. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are not a guarantee of future performance. Actual results of our operations may differ materially from information contained in the forward-looking statements as a result of risk factors, some of which are described under the headings “Risk Factors”, “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects,” “Information on our Company” and elsewhere in this Annual Report. Such risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Annual Report include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance. The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report speak only as of the date of this Annual Report or, if obtained from third-party studies or reports, the date of the corresponding study or report, and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements in this Annual Report. Since we operate in an emerging and evolving environment and new risk factors and uncertainties emerge from time to time, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Except as otherwise required by the securities laws of the United States, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Annual Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
