Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
| 1. | CORPORATE INFORMATION AND CONTINUING OPERATIONS |
Business
InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“InMed” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Province of British Columbia on May 19, 1981 under theBusiness Corporations Act of British Columbia. InMed is a clinical stage pharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of proprietary small molecule drug candidates, targeting the treatment of diseases with high unmet medical needs as well as developing proprietary manufacturing technologies to produce bulk rare cannabinoids for sale as ingredients in the health and wellness industry.
The Company’s shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading symbol “INM”. InMed’s office and principal place of business is located at #310 – 815 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.C., Canada, V6C 1B4.
Going Concern
In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.
Through March 31, 2024, the Company has funded its operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of common stock. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception, including net losses of approximately $5.7 million and $7.6 million for the nine months ended March, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $107.1 million as of March 31, 2024. The Company expects to continue to generate operating losses for the foreseeable future.
As of the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company expects its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $7.6 million as of March 31, 2024, will be sufficient to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the fourth quarter of calendar 2024, depending on the level and timing of realizing BayMedica, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“BayMedica”), revenues from the sale of bulk rare cannabinoids as ingredients in the health and wellness sector as well as the level and timing of the Company’s operating expenses. The future viability of the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations. The Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.
The Company expects to continue to seek additional funding through equity financings, debt financings or other capital sources, including collaborations with other companies, government contracts or other strategic transactions. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all. The terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of the Company’s existing shareholders.
In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Subtopic 205-40, management has determined that the Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, which is considered to be for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts of classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Such adjustments could be material.
| 2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements follow the same significant accounting policies as those described in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto have been reclassified where necessary to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications did not affect the prior period’s total assets, total liabilities, stockholders’ deficit, net loss or net cash used in operating activities. During the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2024, we adopted a change in presentation on our condensed consolidated statements of operations in order to include foreign exchange loss in operating expenses. The Company has adopted ASU 2023-07 -Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosureswhich has required prior period to reflect the change in presentation. Refer to discussion onRecent Accounting Pronouncements below.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date, and the corresponding revenues and expenses for the periods reported. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to these condensed consolidated financial statements are the application of the going concern assumption, and determining the fair value of share-based payments, income tax provisions, write-down of inventories to net realizable value, and warrant valuations.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of Consolidation
These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, including subsidiaries: InMed Pharmaceutical Ltd., BayMedica, LLC, Biogen Sciences Inc., and Sweetnam Consulting Inc. A subsidiary is an entity that the Company controls, either directly or indirectly, where control is defined as the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. All inter-company transactions and balances including unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions are eliminated in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. Dollar. These consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars. References to “$” and “US$” are to United States (“U.S.”) dollars and references to “C$” are to Canadian dollars.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts, net of any allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable.
The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable on a regular basis based upon various factors including the financial condition and payment history of customers, an overall review of collections experience on other accounts and economic factors or events expected to affect future collections experience.
Inventories
Inventories are initially valued at weighted average cost and subsequently valued at the lower of weighted average cost and net realizable value. Costs included in inventories are the purchase price of goods and cost of services rendered, freight costs, warehousing costs, purchasing costs and production and labor costs related to manufacturing.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales consists primarily of the purchase price of goods and cost of services rendered, freight costs, warehousing costs, and purchasing costs. Cost of sales also includes production and labor costs for the Company’s manufacturing business.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Other Risks and Uncertainties
At times, the Company’s cash balances may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation (“CDIC”) insurable limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances. The uninsured cash balance as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, was $3.0 million and $3.8 million respectively.
The Company’s customers are primarily concentrated in the U.S.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had four customers with an accounts receivable balance representing 39%,32%,16%, and 10% of total accounts receivable, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, we had three customers with an accounts receivable balance representing 41%,30% and 15% of total accounts receivable, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had four customers that accounted for 29%,21%,16% and 16% of revenue, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had four customers that accounted for 22%,20%,17% and 11% of revenue, respectively.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had four customers that accounted for 39%,16%,15% and 10% of revenue, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had four customers that accounted for 17%,15%,14%, and 10% of revenue, respectively. This change is reflective of the Company’s transition to operating primarily through a distributor model in the year ended June 30, 2023.
Financial Assets and Liabilities
Financial Assets* ***
Financial assets are initially recognized at fair value, plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue and subsequently carried at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses. No financial assets are or elected to be carried at fair value through profit or loss or where changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in other comprehensive loss.
Short-term investments are subsequently recorded at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value due to short term nature. Accounts receivable are reported at outstanding amounts, net of provisions for uncollectable amounts.
Financial Liabilities* ***
To determine the fair value of financial instruments, the Company uses the fair value hierarchy for inputs used to measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 (highest priority), Level 2, and Level 3 (lowest priority).
| Level 1 – | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. |
| Level 2 – | Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs). |
| Level 3 – | Inputs are unobservable and reflect the Company’s assumptions as to what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available. Assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy. |
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their carrying values as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023 due to their immediate or short-term maturities.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing the net income or loss applicable to common shares of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the relevant period. The Company has 3,012,049 pre-funded warrants and 255,954 abeyance shares included in the basic earnings (loss) per share. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing the net income or loss applicable to common shares by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding and all additional common shares that would have been outstanding for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2024, if potentially dilutive instruments were converted. If the conversion of outstanding stock options and warrants into common shares is anti-dilutive, then diluted EPS is not presented separately from EPS.
The following table sets forth the number of potential shares of common shares that have been excluded from diluted net income (loss) per because their effect was anti-dilutive:
| As of March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 2023 | |
| Options | 678,475 | 26,813 |
| Warrants | 13,204,093 | 3,528,643 |
| 13,882,568 | 3,555,456 | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has reviewed recent accounting pronouncements and concluded that they are either not applicable to the Company or that there was no material impact or no material impact is expected in the consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through expanded disclosures around significant segment expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company has early adopted this accounting pronouncement.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disclosure of specific categories meeting a quantitative threshold within the income tax rate reconciliation, as well as disaggregation of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This ASU, which can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively, is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the ASU and expects to include updated income tax disclosures.

Authorized
As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s authorized share structure consisted of: (i) an unlimited number of common shares without par value; and (ii) an unlimited number of preferred shares without par value. No preferred shares were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023.
The Company may, from time to time, issue preferred shares and may, at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations pertaining to these shares. Holders of preferred shares may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company before any payment is made to the holders of common shares.
On October 24, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “2023 Securities Purchase Agreement”) with two accredited institutional investors (the “Accredited Institutional Investors”) for the sale (the “2023 Private Placement”) of 3,012,049 pre-funded warrants of the Company’s common shares at a purchase price of $0.83 per share. The pre-funded warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 and do not have an expiration date. The pre-funded warrants had a fair value of $1,248,376 at the time of issuance. In addition, the Company agreed, as part of the 2023 Private Placement, to issue to the purchasers unregistered preferred investment options to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,012,049 common shares. These preferred investment options have an exercise price of $0.83 and have a term of 5.5 years from issuance. The preferred investment options had a fair value of $1,251,449 at the time of their issuance. Subsequent to their issuance, the preferred investment options were registered with the SEC on Form S-1 on November 8, 2023, which became effective on November 13, 2023. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, an Accredited Institutional Investor exercised 1,757,032 preferred investment options.
Concurrently with the Company’s entry into the 2023 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company also entered into an inducement offer letter agreement (the “Inducement Offer Letter”) with the holders of existing preferred investment options (the “Existing Holders”) to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,272,733 common shares issued to the Existing Holders on November 21, 2022. Pursuant to the Inducement Offer Letter, the Existing Holders agreed to exercise for cash their existing preferred investment options to purchase an aggregate of 3,272,733 common shares (at a reduced exercise price of $0.83 per share) in consideration of the Company’s agreement to issue new unregistered preferred investment options to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,545,466 shares of the Company’s common shares at an exercise price of $0.83 per share). Due to ownership limitations, the Accredited Institutional Investors had 1,796,552 common shares held in abeyance as of the closing of the 2023 Private Placement. The abeyance shares had a fair value of $1,491,138 and the common shares issued had a fair value of $1,225,230 on their respective issuance date. As of March 31, 2024, the Accredited Institutional Investors had drawn down 1,540,598 abeyance shares. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, the Accredited Institutional Investors drew down the remaining 255,954 abeyance shares.
The inducement contemplated by the Inducement Offer Letter (the “Inducement”) is considered a warrant modification due to the changing of the terms of the warrants. The modification had a fair value of $3.5 million as of the date of the Inducement, using a Black-Scholes model and is recognized as an equity issuance cost in accordance with ASC 718-20-35-3.

| 10. | SEGMENT INFORMATION |
The Company reports segment information based on the management approach which designates the internal reporting used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the senior management team, for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The CODM allocates resources and assesses the performance of each operating segment based on potential licensing opportunities, historical and potential future product sales, operating expenses, and operating income (loss) before interest and taxes. The Company has determined its reportable segments to be InMed Pharmaceuticals (‘InMed Pharma’) and BayMedica Commercial based on the information used by the CODM. Other than cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments (“Unrestricted cash”) balances, the CODM does not regularly review asset information by reportable segment and, therefore, the Company does not report asset information by reportable segment.
The InMed Pharma segment is largely organized around the research and development of small molecule pharmaceuticals drug candidates and the BayMedica Commercial segment is largely organized around manufacturing technologies to produce and commercialize bulk rare cannabinoids for sale as ingredients in the health and wellness industry. Total assets held in the InMed Pharma segment as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023 are $10.8 million and $11.2 million, respectively. Total assets as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, held in the BayMedica segment are $2.6 million and $3.0 million, respectively.
The following table presents information about the Company’s reportable segments for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

| 11. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
Pursuant to the terms of agreements with various contract research organizations, as of March 31, 2024, the Company is committed for contract research services and materials at a cost of approximately $1.5 million, which is expected to occur in the following twelve months period following March 31, 2024.
Pursuant to the terms of agreements with various vendors, as of March 31, 2024, the Company is committed for contract materials and equipment at a cost of approximately $1.0 million, which is expected to occur in the twelve months following March 31, 2024.
Pursuant to the terms of a certain Technology Assignment Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2017 (the “Technology Agreement”), between the Company and the University of British Columbia (“UBC”), the Company is committed to pay royalties to UBC on certain licensing and royalty revenues received by the Company for biosynthesis of certain drug products that are covered by the Technology Agreement. To date, no payments have been required to be made.
Pursuant to the terms of a certain Collaborative Research Agreement, dated as of December 13, 2018, between the Company and UBC, pursuant to which the Company owns all rights, title and interests in and to any intellectual property, in addition to funding research at UBC, the Company is committed to make a one-time payment upon filing of any PCT patent application arising from the research. To date, one such payment has been made to UBC.
Pursuant to the terms of a certain Contribution Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2018, between the Company and National Research Council Canada, as represented by its Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP), under certain circumstances contributions received, including the disposition of the underlying intellectual property developed in part with NRC-IRAP contributions, may become repayable.
Short-term investments include guaranteed investment certificates, with one-year terms of $43,085 and $44,422 as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively, that are pledged as security for a corporate credit card.
In addition to the foregoing, the Company has entered into certain agreements in the ordinary course of operations that may include indemnification provisions, which are common in such agreements. In some cases, the maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company currently holds commercial general liability insurance. This insurance may limit the Company’s overall liability and may enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. Historically, the Company has not made any indemnification payments under such agreements and it believes that the fair value of these indemnification obligations is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized any liabilities relating to these obligations for any period presented.
Pursuant to a certain Technology Licensing Agreement, dated as of March 11, 2021, the Company is committed to issue, subject to regulatory approval, up to 700 warrants to purchase 700 common shares upon the achievement of certain milestones. The exercise price of the warrants will be equal to the five-day VWAP of the common shares prior to each milestone achievement and the warrants will be exercisable for a period of three years from the issuance date*.*
BayMedica entered into a patent license agreement (“Patent License Agreement”) with a third party (the “Licensor”) on February 15, 2021. The Company was required to begin making royalty payments to the Licensor based on net sales of licensed products in 2021 in order to maintain an exclusive license. In December 2021, the Company amended the Patent License Agreement, which amendment included the deferral of the 2021 minimum payments to 2022. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has paid $300,000 for the minimum payments due and payable under the Patent License Agreement. On February 10, 2023, BayMedica received a letter from the Licensor alleging a breach of the Patent License Agreement and asserting a right to monies due thereunder. On April 6, 2023, BayMedica sent a letter to the Licensor disputing the Licensor’s interpretation of the Patent License Agreement and asserted that the counterparty’s only remedy under the Patent License Agreement to be either (a) the conversion of an exclusive technology license into a non-exclusive license or (b) the termination of the Patent License Agreement. To date, the Licensor has not initiated a lawsuit with respect to the foregoing matters. If a lawsuit is ultimately brought alleging a breach of the Patent License Agreement, the proceeding will be subject to final, binding and non-appealable arbitration under the Arbitration Act, 1991 (Ontario) and determined pursuant to Ontario law. BayMedica intends to vigorously defend its position. At this time, it is not possible to reasonably estimate a potential loss due to the terms of the Agreement, the nature of the legal theory advanced by the counterparty, and the ultimate outcome of any proceeding (including the interpretation by the arbitrator with respect to applicable requirements under Ontario law regarding contract formation).
From time to time, the Company may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims related to matters arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe it is currently subject to any material matters where there is at least a reasonable possibility that a material loss may be incurred.
| 12. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
