PyroGenesis Canada Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

As at March 31, 2024 and for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Unaudited)

(In Canadian dollars)

1. Nature of operations

PyroGenesis Canada Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), incorporated under the laws of the Canada Business Corporations Act, was formed on July 11, 2011. The Company owns patents of advanced waste treatment systems technology and designs, develops, manufactures, and commercialises advanced plasma processes and sustainable solutions to reduce greenhouse gases. The Company is domiciled at 1744 William Street, Suite 200, Montreal, Quebec. The Company is publicly traded on the TSX Exchange under the Symbol "PYR", on the OTCQX Best Market under the symbol "PYRGF" and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSX) under the symbol "8PY ". Prior to November 2023, the Company's common shares were traded on NASDAQ, before being voluntarily delisted.

2. Going concern

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes that the Company will be able to continue its operations for the foreseeable and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

The Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainty associated with the achievement of profitable operations such as the successful signing and delivery of contracts and access to adequate financing.

The Company has incurred, in the last years, operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, and as a result, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $126,288,466 as at March 31, 2024 ($121,889,032 as at December 31, 2023). Furthermore, there have been unexpected delays in the collection of certain accounts receivable from contracts closed in a prior year. This has resulted in a shortfall in cash flows from operating activities that would be used in funding the Company's operations.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company has working capital deficiency of $11,364,520 ($7,007,719 as at December 31, 2023) including cash of $169,928 ($1,802,616 as at December 31, 2023). The working capital is net of an allowance for credit losses amounting to $9,660,250 ($9,278,135 as at December 31, 2023) as further described in Notes 6 and 7. The Company's business plan is dependent upon the successful completion of contracts and also the receipt of payments from certain contracts closed in a prior year and expects these payments to be made during fiscal 2024, as well as the achievement of profitable operations through the signing, completion and delivery of additional contracts or a reduction in certain operating expenses. In the absence of this, the Company is dependent upon raising additional funds to finance operations within and beyond the next twelve months. The Company has been successful in securing financing in the past and has relied upon external financing to fund its operations, primarily through the issuance of equity, debt and convertible debentures. The Company completed a private placement in October 2022 for an amount of $1,318,980 and also completed another private placement in March 2023 for net proceeds $4,960,483. In addition, in July 2023, the Company also completed a brokered private placement of convertible debenture units for gross proceeds of $3,030,000 and in December 2023, the Company also completed a brokered private placement of convertible debenture units for gross proceeds of $1,250,000. While the Company has been successful in securing financing, raising additional funds is dependent on a number of factors, some of which are outside the Company's control, and therefore there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future or that these sources will be available to the Company or that they will be available on terms which are acceptable to the Company. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue operating as a going concern.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments to the amounts and to classifications of the assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to achieve its plan and continue in business. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate, adjustments, which could be material, would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses, and the classification of items on the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position.

3. Basis of preparation

(a) Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Statements, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the necessary information required for full annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

These financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on May 14, 2024.

(b) Functional and presentation currency

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the functional currency of PyroGenesis, and Pyro Green-Gas Inc. The functional currency of Airscience Italia SRL is the euro whereas the functional currency of Airscience Technologies Private Limited is the Indian rupee, and Drosrite International LLC's functional currency is the US dollar.

(c) Basis of measurement

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for:

  1. strategic investments which are accounted for at fair value,
  2. stock-basedpayment arrangements, which are measured at fair value on the grant date pursuant to IFRS 2, Share- based Payment; and
  3. lease liabilities, which are initially measured at the present value of minimum lease payments

(d) Basis of consolidation

For financial reporting purposes, subsidiaries are defined as entities controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it has power over the investee; it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity; and it has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

In instances where the Company does not hold a majority of the voting rights, further analysis is performed to determine whether or not the Company has control of the entity. The Company is deemed to have control when, according to the terms of the shareholder's and/or other agreements, it makes most of the decisions affecting relevant activities.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of PyroGenesis and its subsidiaries, Drosrite International LLC and Pyro Green-Gas Inc. and its subsidiaries. Drosrite International LLC is owned by a member of the Company's key management personnel and close member of the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and controlling shareholder's family and is deemed to be controlled by the Company. All transactions and balances between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The accounting policies disclosed in the December 31, 2023, year-end consolidated financial statements have been applied consistently in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Finance income (costs) and changes in fair value of strategic investments are excluded from the loss from operations in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

4. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

The significant judgments, estimates and assumptions applied by the Company in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its audited annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

As at March 31, 2024 and for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

(Unaudited)

(In Canadian dollars)

As at March 31, 2024 the allowance for expected credit loss on trade accounts receivable is $9,018,000 ($8,597,635 as at December 31, 2023), whereby $420,365 was recognized during the period ($3,904,000 during fiscal 2023). The portion recognized at March 31, 2024, includes $8,081,000 attributable to one specific customer, whereby the carrying amount has been reduced from $11,531,000 to $3,450,000. The carrying value of all other trade receivables was reduced from $6,212,053 to $5,275,053. On the basis of the Company's expected credit loss policy, the allowance was determined generally by applying a loss rate of 1% on balances 1-30 days past the invoice date, 2% for 31-60 days, 3% for 61-90 days and a minimum of 10% for those beyond 90 days. Specific consideration was applied for situations where the receivable is a holdback on a contract, and also for customers that have exceeded normal payment terms.

The closing balance of the trade receivables credit loss allowance as at March 31, 2024, reconciles with the trade receivables credit loss allowance opening balance as follows:

7. Costs and profits in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts

As at March 31, 2024, the Company had eleven contracts with total billings of $19,444,473 which were less than total costs incurred and had recognized cumulative revenue of $20,734,312 since those projects began. This compares with thirteen contracts with total billings of $18,850,084 which were less than total costs incurred and had recognized cumulative revenue of $20,179,397 as at December 31, 2023.

The net amount of $647,589 as at March 31, 2024 includes an expected credit loss allowance of $642,250 ($680,500 as at December 31, 2023). On the basis of the Company's expected credit loss policy, the allowance was determined generally by applying a loss rate of 2% on all balances, and adjusting for specific situations, such as past due customers, whereby the loss rate varied from 25% to 50%, or greater, if needed.

Changes in costs and profits in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts during the period are explained by $285,315 ($1,041,422 as at December 31, 2023) recognized at the beginning of the year being transferred to accounts receivable, $322,341 ($989,438 as at December 31, 2023) resulting from changes in the measure of progress and the variation in expected credit loss allowance of $38,250 ($350,500 as at December 31, 2023).
