19"). The Company cannot accurately predict the impact COVID-19 will have on its operations and the ability of others to meet their obligations with the Company, including uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of travel and quarantine restrictions imposed by governments of affected countries. In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could further affect the Company's operations and ability to finance its operations.

General

DelphX Capital Markets Inc. ("DelphX" or the "Company") was incorporated as Seaside Exploration Partners Corp. ("Seaside") on October 21, 2016, pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), and was a Capital Pool Company, pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV"). On April 25, 2018, DelphX Corporation and Seaside completed a Qualifying Transaction ("QT"), as is defined pursuant to TSXV Policy 2.4, pursuant to a definitive share-exchange agreement dated December 12, 2017. The QT constituted a reverse take- over ("RTO") of Seaside. Details of the QT are disclosed in note 23 of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements. Prior to the QT, Seaside had a fiscal year end of January 31st, which has been changed to December 31st to coincide with the reporting year end of the DelphX Corporation (the RTO accounting acquirer).

The principal address of the Company is 15 Prince Arthur Street, Toronto, Ontario, M5R 1B2. DelphX's principal business activity is to develop and operate a global facility for transparent offering, purchase, sale, collection and storage of certain fixed income securities and derivatives, and to manage data, research, analytics and valuations of such instruments, as more fully described below.

The Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities as they fall due in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As the Company is in the development stage and has not yet realized profitable operations, it has relied on non-operational sources of financing to fund operations. DelphX's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on successfully executing its business plan, which includes the raising of additional funds. The Company will continue to seek additional forms of debt and/or equity financing, but it cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in doing so. These material uncertainties lend significant doubt as to the ability of the Company to meet its obligations as they come due and, accordingly, the appropriateness, ultimately, of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. The Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and consolidated statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material.

The Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have also been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS") 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' using accounting policies consistent with the IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). They consolidate the accounts of the Company and all its subsidiaries. The Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of DelphX Services Corporation ("DSC") on November 27, 2017. DSC is an SEC-registered securities broker-dealer that was previously owned by the Company's President and CEO and has an objective to manage the DelphX Alternative Trading System ("ATS"). The Company's other wholly-owned subsidiaries are as follows: DelphX Data Corporation (incorporated on February 21, 2018, pursuant to the laws of Canada), the Company's Canadian operations entity; Quantem Capital Corporation (incorporated on April 11, 2018, pursuant to the laws of Bermuda) (inactive), Quantem Capital LLC (a limited liability company formed on September 3, 2021, pursuant to the laws of Delaware) and DelphX Corporation (incorporated on February 18, 2016, pursuant to the laws Delaware, USA), the Company's US operations entity. The Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements include the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of its subsidiaries subsequent to acquisition or formation.

The Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on November 29, 2021.

Any reference to "note" or "notes" in this Interim MD&A are to the corresponding notes in the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

Principal Business and Stated Business Objectives

DelphX is a financial product and technology company that is designing solutions to improve access, liquidity and trading and negotiation in the credit market. The Company operates its proprietary facility under a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle called "Quantem".

This facility addresses a significant problem in existing structured products markets of lower liquidity, ease of access, and lack of transparency in risk mitigation tools currently used by institutional investors seeking risk mitigation solutions. It also allows institutional investors to attain higher yields than reference bonds with a pari- passu risk of default.

To solve these problems, DelphX (with guidance from the SEC) created and owns two proprietary securities solutions that offer both secure risk protection and yield improvement for currently issued underlying bonds: Collateralized Put Options ("CPOs") and Collateralized Reference Notes ("CRNs").

CPOs are 144A securities that pay holders the interest and principal payments as due under a referenced credit security that has defaulted. CPOs are structured to indemnify both individual and portfolios of referenced corporate bonds and other credit securities.

CRNs are fixed coupon/maturity 144A securities that fund all CPO protection, on a CUSIP-specific basis, and pay materially-enhanced yields.

All CPOs and CRNs on this platform will be issued by Quantem, collateralized by US Treasuies held in custody by BNY Mellon. Each will be transparently priced and available for secondary trading with dealers and within the upcoming regulated DelphX ATS.

The Company's primary business objective has been to develop a sustainable revenue model by using advanced products and technologies to solve major unmet problems in the credit markets - with an emphasis on unlocking liquidity, providing default protection, and boosting yield in existing and future bond portfolios.

DelphX is currently in final-stage completions for official launch of its proprietary solution.
