CORPORATE INFORMATION	Feb. 03, 2018
CORPORATE INFORMATION
CORPORATE INFORMATION	1. CORPORATE INFORMATION The consolidated financial statements of DAVIDsTEA Inc. and its subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) for the year ended February 3, 2018 were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on April 19, 2018. The Company is incorporated and domiciled in Canada and its shares are publicly traded on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “DTEA”. The registered office is located at 5430, Ferrier Street, Town of Mount-Royal, Quebec, Canada, H4P 1M2. The Company is engaged in the retail and online sale of tea, tea accessories and food and beverages in Canada and in the United States. Sales fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Sales are traditionally higher in the fourth fiscal quarter due to the year-end holiday season, and tend to be lowest in the second and third fiscal quarters because of lower customer traffic during the summer months.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

BASIS OF PREPARATION

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The accounting policies were consistently applied to all periods presented.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the end of January, typically resulting in a 52-week year, but occasionally giving rise to an additional week, resulting in a 53-week year. The years ended January 30, 2016 and January 28, 2017 cover a 52-week period. The year ended February 3, 2018 covers a 53-week fiscal period.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, DAVIDsTEA (USA) Inc. The financial statements of the subsidiary are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses have been eliminated.

Basis of measurement

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following material items:

Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value; and

Provisions for onerous contracts are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to settle the obligations.

Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the parent Company’s functional currency.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Cash

Cash on the consolidated balance sheet comprises cash at banks and on hand.

Inventory valuation

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. Costs include the cost of purchase and transportation costs that are directly incurred to bring the inventories to their present location, and duty. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventory in the ordinary course of business, less any estimated selling costs. Cost also includes realized gains and losses on forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges of U.S. inventory purchases.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are initially recorded at cost and are depreciated over their useful economic life. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset, including any costs directly related to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use. The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate. All repair and maintenance costs are recognized in net income (loss) as incurred.

Depreciation of an asset begins once it becomes available for use. Depreciation is charged to income on the following bases:


Furniture and equipment	20	% declining balance
Computer hardware	30	% declining balance

Leasehold improvements are depreciated on a straight‑line basis over the lesser of the useful economic life and the initial term of the leases, plus one renewal option period, not to exceed 10 years.

Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in net income (loss) when the asset is derecognized.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of computer software, trademarks and patents.

Intangible assets are initially recorded at cost. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their useful economic life. The amortization period and the amortization method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life are considered to modify the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in income (loss) as the expense category that is consistent with the function of the intangible assets.

Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or derecognition of the intangible asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset) is included in net income (loss) when the intangible asset is derecognized.

When computer software is not an integral part of a related item of computer hardware, the software is treated as an intangible. Computer software is amortized on the basis of its estimated useful life using the declining method at the rate of 30%.

Leases

Leases are classified as either operating or finance, based on the substance of the transaction at inception of the lease. Classification is re‑assessed if the terms of the lease are changed.

Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not assumed by the Company are classified as operating leases. The Company carries on its operations in premises under leases of varying terms and renewal options, which are accounted for as operating leases. Payments under an operating lease are recognized in net income (loss) on a straight‑line basis over the term of the lease. When a lease contains a predetermined fixed escalation of the minimum rent, the Company recognizes the related rent expense on a straight‑line basis and, consequently, records the difference between the recognized rental expense and the amounts payable under the lease as deferred rent. Contingent (sales‑based) rentals are recognized as an expense when incurred.

Store opening costs

Store opening costs are expensed as incurred.

Impairment

i.Impairment of financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. An impairment exists if one or more events that has occurred since the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred “loss event”) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization and observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

ii.Impairment of non‑financial assets

The Company assesses, at each reporting date, whether there is an indication that an item of property and equipment or an intangible asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash‑generating unit’s (“CGU”) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. When the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre‑tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. Recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or corporate assets. The discount rate applied to an asset or CGU is the weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”). Management considers factors such as risk-free rate, equity risk premium, size premium, specific business risk premium and cost of debt to derive the WACC.

The Company bases its impairment calculation on detailed budgets and forecast calculations, which are prepared separately for each of the Company’s CGUs to which the individual assets are allocated. These budgets and forecast calculations generally cover the lease term.

Based on the management of operations, the Company has defined each of the commercial premises in which it carries out its activities as a CGU, although where appropriate these premises are aggregated at a district or regional level to form a CGU.

An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased and if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount. The reversal is limited to the extent that an asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, had no impairment loss been recognized. Such reversal is recognized in net income (loss).

Derivative financial instruments and hedge accounting

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge its foreign currency risks, resulting from variability in foreign currency exchange rates on inventory purchases, as described in Note 24.

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial liabilities when the fair value is negative.

For the purpose of hedge accounting, hedges are classified as cash flow hedges when hedging the exposure to variability in cash flows that is either attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction.

At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Company formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which it wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, the hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the effectiveness of changes in the hedging instrument’s fair value in offsetting the exposure to changes in the hedged item’s fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.

The Company has applied hedge accounting for its foreign exchange forward contracts and has designated them as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly in Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“OCI”), while any ineffective portion is recognized immediately in net income (loss). The amounts recognized in OCI are reclassified to inventory when such non-financial asset is recognized on the balance sheet, and to net income (loss) when inventory is subsequently sold.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in the statement of income (loss) net of any reimbursement. All provisions are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre‑tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

Deferred lease inducements

The deferred lease inducements are composed of free rent and construction allowances obtained upon signing of lease agreements for certain retail stores. They are amortized on a straight‑line basis over the term of the related leases, plus one renewal option, to a maximum of 10 years.

Share capital

i.Common shares

Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of common shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

Common shares are classified as equity if they are non‑redeemable or redeemable only at the Company’s option, and any dividends are discretionary. Dividends thereon are recognized as distributions within equity on approval by the Company’s Board of Directors.

ii.Preferred shares

Preferred shares are classified as a financial liability if they are redeemable on a specific date or at the option of the shareholders. Dividends thereon are recognized as interest expense in net income (loss) as accrued.

iii.Hybrid financial instruments

Hybrid financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible preferred shares that can be converted to common shares at the option of the holders, when the number of shares to be issued is not fixed.

The equity components on such instruments are separated from the debt host contract (preferred shares redeemable at the option of the holders) and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the debt host contract and the embedded derivative (equity components) are not closely related.

iv.Derivative and embedded derivative financial instruments

The Company issued liability‑classified derivatives and embedded derivatives over its Series A, A‑1 and A‑2 preferred shares. Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related, a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative and the combined instrument is not measured at fair value through income (loss).

Derivatives and separable embedded derivatives are recognized initially at fair value and attributable transaction costs are recognized in income (loss) as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives and separable embedded derivatives are measured at fair value and all changes in their fair value are recognized immediately in income (loss).

Stock‑based compensation

The Company has a stock option plan for employees and directors from which options to purchase common shares are issued (the “Plan”). Options may not be granted with an exercise price of less than the fair value of the underlying shares at the grant date. The awards have no cash settlement alternatives. The vesting requirements are typically service‑based and the options normally have a contractual life of seven years.

The fair value of stock‑based compensation awards granted to employees is measured at the grant date using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Measurement inputs include the share price of the underlying shares on the measurement date, the exercise price of the option, the expected volatility (based on weighted average historical volatility of comparable companies adjusted for changes expected based on publicly available information), the weighted average expected life of the option (based on historical experience), expected dividends, and the risk‑free interest rate (based on government bonds).

The value of the compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the stock options as an expense included in selling and general administration expenses, with a corresponding increase to contributed surplus in equity. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the Company’s best estimate of the number of awards that will ultimately vest. No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest.

Any consideration paid by plan participants on the exercise of stock options and the previously recognized compensation cost of the options exercised included in contributed surplus are credited to share capital.

Under the Company’s 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Omnibus Plan”), selected employees and directors are granted RSUs where each RSU has a value equal to one common share. The compensation expense is recorded at the fair value of the Company’s common shares at the grant date over the vesting period (generally one to three years) with a corresponding credit to contributed surplus for equity-settled RSUs and a corresponding credit to a liability for cash-settled RSUs. RSUs may be settled in shares, cash, or a combination of cash or shares upon vesting at the discretion of the Company. Cash settled RSUs are revalued at each reporting date to reflect their fair value at that date. Fair value is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the NASDAQ Global Market prior to the date of the grant. The Company has not issued any cash settled awards to date.

Revenue recognition

Revenue from retail sales is recorded upon delivery to the customer. Revenue is recognized on e-commerce sales when merchandise is delivered. Revenues are recorded net of discounts, rebates, estimated returns, sales taxes and amounts deferred related to the issuance of Frequent Steeper points.

i.Gift card breakage

Gift cards sold are recorded as deferred revenue and revenue is recognized at the time of redemption or in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for breakage. Breakage income represents the estimated value of gift cards that is not expected to be redeemed by customers and is estimated based on historical redemption patterns. Gift card breakage is included in sales in the consolidated statement of income (loss).

ii.Loyalty program

The Frequent Steeper loyalty and rewards program allows customers to earn points when they purchase products in the Company’s retail stores and on the Company’s website. Points can be redeemed for free tea or free beverages, depending on the number of points a customer has obtained over a limited collection period. Free tea offers are issued at the end of each collection period and must be redeemed within 60 days from the effective date. Free beverage offers are issued at the end of the calendar collection period and must be redeemed within 60 days from the effective date.

The fair value of points issued is recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue only when the points are redeemed for free products or when the related points expire. The fair value of Frequent Steeper points is determined based on the estimated selling price of the product for which the point is expected to be redeemed, net of points we do not expect to be redeemed. On an ongoing basis, the Company monitors historical redemption rates. Points revenue is included with total sales in the consolidated statement of income (loss).

Finance income

Interest income is recognized as interest accrues using the effective interest method.

Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in net income (loss) except to the extent that they relate to items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered or paid. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes, which requires the establishment of deferred tax assets and liabilities for all temporary differences caused when the tax bases of assets and liabilities differ from their carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets for unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences only to the extent that, in management’s opinion, it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

The diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of shares outstanding to include additional shares issued from the assumed conversion of preferred shares and the exercise of stock options and RSUs, if dilutive. For stock options, the number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that the proceeds from such exercises, as well as the amount of unrecognized stock-based compensation which is considered to be assumed proceeds, are used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the reporting period.

Financial instruments

A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. Financial instruments are recognized depending on their classification with changes in subsequent measurements being recognized in income or loss or in other comprehensive income (“OCI”).

The Company has made the following classifications:

Cash and derivative financial instruments are classified as “Fair Value through Profit or Loss”, and measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recorded in income (loss).

Accounts and other receivables are classified as “Loans and Receivables”. After their initial fair value measurement, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Trade and other payables are classified as “Other Financial Liabilities”. After their initial fair value measurement, they are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Foreign currency translation

Revenues, expenses and non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange prevailing at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Unrealized and realized translation gains and losses are reflected in net income (loss).

The assets and liabilities of the Company’s U.S. wholly owned subsidiary, whose functional currency is the U.S. dollar, are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the year. Differences arising from the exchange rate changes are included in OCI in the cumulative translation account.

Foreign exchange gains or losses arising from a monetary item receivable from or payable to a foreign operation, the settlement of which is neither planned nor likely to occur in the foreseeable future and which in substance is considered to form part of the net investment in the foreign operation, are recognized in other comprehensive income in the cumulative translation account and reclassified from equity to net income (loss) on disposal of the net investment.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

4. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Standards issued but not yet effective

IFRS 9, “Financial Instruments”, for which the final version was issued in July 2014 by the IASB, replaces IAS 39, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” and all previous versions of IFRS 9. IFRS 9 brings together all three aspects of the accounting for financial instruments project: classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Except for hedge accounting, retrospective application is required but providing comparative information is not compulsory. For hedge accounting, the requirements are generally applied prospectively, with some limited exceptions. The Company plans to adopt the new standard on the required effective date. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related note disclosures. The Company has performed a high-level impact assessment of all three aspects of IFRS 9. This preliminary assessment is based on currently available information and may be subject to changes arising from further detailed analyses. Overall, the Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Classification and measurement. The Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements in applying the classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9.

Impairment. IFRS 9 requires the Company to record expected credit losses on all of its debt securities, loans and trade receivables, either on a 12-month or lifetime basis. The Company expects to apply the simplified approach and record lifetime expected losses on all trade receivables. The Company will need to perform a detailed analysis which considers all reasonable and supportable information, including forward-looking elements to determine the extent of the impact. Based on its existing trade receivables, the Company does not expect the IFRS 9 expected credit loss model to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Hedge accounting. The Company believes that all existing hedge relationships that are currently designated in effective hedging relationships still qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS 9. As IFRS 9 does not change the general principles of how an entity accounts for effective hedges, the adoption of IFRS 9 will not have a material impact on the Company’s hedge accounting.

IFRS 15, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“IFRS 15”) replaces IAS 11, “Construction Contracts”, and IAS 18, “Revenue”, as well as various interpretations regarding revenue. This standard introduces a single model for recognizing revenue that applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of standards on leases, insurance and financial instruments. This standard also requires enhanced disclosures. Adoption of IFRS 15 is mandatory and will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The Company has completed an assessment of significant contracts with customers and has determined the preliminary expected impacts of the adoption of IFRS 15 on its consolidated financial statements. The implementation of IFRS 15 will impact the allocation of revenue that is deferred in relation to its customer loyalty award programs. Revenue is currently allocated to the customer loyalty awards using the residual fair value method. Under IFRS 15, consideration will be allocated between the loyalty program awards and the goods on which the awards were earned, based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. The Company does not expect that the change in allocation of revenue that is deferred in relation to its customer loyalty program will have a material impact on retained earnings as at February 4, 2018. The Company continues to assess the impact of the disclosure requirements under IFRS 15 on the its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 16, “Leases” (“IFRS 16”) replaces IAS 17, “Leases”. This standard provides a single model for leases abolishing the current distinction between finance and operating leases, with most leases being recognized on the balance sheet. Certain exemptions will apply for short-term leases and leases of low value assets. The new standard will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Early application is permitted, provided the new revenue standard, IFRS 15, has been applied, or is applied at the same date as IFRS 16. The Company has performed a preliminary assessment of the potential impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 on its consolidated financial statements. The Company expects the adoption of IFRS 16 will have a significant impact as the Company will recognize new assets and liabilities for its operating leases of retail stores. In addition, the nature and timing of expenses related to those leases will change as IFRS 16 replaces the straight-line operating lease expense with a depreciation charge for right-of use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities. The Company has not yet determined which transition method it will apply or whether it will use the optional exemptions or practical expedients under the standard. The Company expects to disclose additional detailed information, including its transition method, any practical expedients elected and
estimated quantitative financial effects, before the adoption of IFRS 16.

IFRIC 22, “Foreign Currency Transactions and Advance Consideration” (“IFRIC 22”). In December 2016, the IASB issued IFRIC 22, which addresses how to determine the date of the transaction for the purpose of determining the exchange rate to use on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income (or part of it) and on the derecognition of a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the payment or receipt of advance consideration in a foreign currency. IFRIC 22 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting the interpretation of IFRIC 22 on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRIC 23, “Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments”, was issued by the IASB in June 2017. The Interpretation provides guidance on the accounting for current and deferred tax liabilities and assets in circumstances in which there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. The Interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Earlier application is permitted. The Interpretation requires an entity to:

Contemplate whether uncertain tax treatments should be considered separately, or together as a group, based on which approach provides better predictions of the resolution;

Reflect an uncertainty in the amount of income tax payable (recoverable) if it is probable that it will pay (or recover) an amount for the uncertainty; and

Measure a tax uncertainty based on the most likely amount or expected value depending on whichever method better predicts the amount payable (recoverable).

The Company does not expect a material impact from the adoption of IFRIC 23 on its consolidated financial statements.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

5. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Company to make judgments, apart from those involving estimation, in applying accounting policies that affect the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results may differ from the judgments made by the Company. Information about judgments that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are discussed below. Information about significant estimates is discussed in the following section.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Recoverability and impairment of non‑financial assets

Leasehold improvements and furniture and equipment are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. A review for impairment is conducted by comparing the carrying amount of the CGU’s assets with their respective recoverable amounts based on value in use. Value in use is determined based on management’s best estimate of expected future cash flows, which includes estimates of growth rates, from use over the remaining lease term and discounted using a pre‑tax weighted average cost of capital (Note 8).

Critical judgements in applying accounting policies

Impairment of non‑financial assets

Management is required to make significant judgments in determining if individual commercial premises in which it carries out its activities are individual CGUs, or if these units should be aggregated at a district or regional level to form a CGU. The significant judgments applied by management in determining if stores should be aggregated in a given geographic area to form a CGU include the determination of expected customer behavior, the allocation basis of e-commerce sales to CGUs, and whether customers could interchangeably shop in any of the stores in a given area and whether management views the cash flows of the stores in the group as interdependent.

ii.

Income taxes

The Company may be subject to audits related to tax risks, and uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of tax regulations, changes in tax laws, and the amount and timing of future taxable income. Differences arising between the actual results and the assumptions made, or future changes to such assumptions, could necessitate future adjustments to taxable income and income tax expense already recorded. The Company establishes provisions if required, based on reasonable estimates, for possible consequences of audits by the tax authorities. The amount of such provisions is based on various factors, such as experience of previous tax audits and differing interpretations of tax regulations by the entity and the responsible tax authority, which may arise on a wide variety of issues.

To determine the extent to which deferred income tax assets can be recognized, management estimates the amount of probable future taxable profits that will be available against which deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses can be used. Such estimates are made as part of the budget and strategic plan by tax jurisdiction. Management exercises judgment to determine the extent to which realization of future taxable benefits is probable considering factors such as the number of years included in the forecast period and prudent tax planning strategies. See Note 19—Income Taxes for more details.

For the year ended February 3, 2018, an assessment of impairment indicators was performed which caused the Company to review the recoverable amount of the property and equipment for certain CGUs with an indication of impairment. CGUs reviewed included stores performing below the Company’s expectations. As a result, an impairment loss of $15,935 [January 28, 2017 — $7,516; January 30, 2016 — nil] related to store leasehold improvements, furniture and equipment, and computer hardware was recorded in the Canada and U.S. segments for $5,114 and $10,821, respectively [January 28, 2017 —$1,116 and $6,400, respectively; January 30, 2016 — nil and nil, respectively]. These losses were determined by comparing the carrying amount of the CGU’s net assets with their respective recoverable amounts based on value in use. Value in use of $1,097 [January 28, 2017 —$472; January 30, 2016 —nil] was determined based on management’s best estimate of expected future cash flows from use over the remaining lease terms, considering historical experience as well as current economic conditions, and was then discounted using a pre‑tax discount rate of 11.9% [January 28, 2017 — 13.4%; January 30, 2016 — 13.4%]. A reversal of impairment occurs when previously impaired CGUs see improved financial results. For the year ended February 3, 2018, $866 of impairment losses were reversed following a change in the expected future cash flows of certain CGUs in the U.S. segment [January 28, 2017 — nil; January 30, 2016 — nil]. Value in use of $848 for these CGU’s was determined in the same manner as described above. Impairment losses were reversed only to the extent that the carrying amounts of the CGU’s net assets do not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized.

For the year ended February 3, 2018, the depreciation expense was $8,431 [January 28, 2017 —$8,069 ; January 30, 2016 — $5,832]; with $6,387 recorded in the Canada segment [January 28, 2017 — $5,583; January 30, 2016 — $4,384], $1,508 recorded in the U.S. segment [January 28, 2017 — $1,930; January 30, 2016 — $1,080], and $536 recorded in corporate selling, general and administration expenses [January 28, 2017 — $556; January 30, 2016 — $368]. Depreciation expense and net impairment losses are reported in the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) under selling, general and administration expenses (Note 20).

Provisions for onerous contracts have been recognized in respect of store leases where the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the lease agreements exceed the economic benefits expected to be received from the contract. The unavoidable costs reflect the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of operating under the contract. For the year ended February 3, 2018, additions to the onerous provisions were recorded in the amount of $14,073, while the provisions for other stores were fully or partially reversed by $3,752.

Operating lease commitments

The commercial premises at which the Company carries out its retail operations, its head office and its primary warehouse location are leased from third parties. These rental contracts are classified as operating leases since there is no transfer of risks and rewards inherent to ownership.

These leases have varying terms and renewal rights. In many cases, the amounts payable to the lessor include a fixed rental payment as well as a percentage of sales obtained by the Company in the leased premises. Many leases include escalating rental payments, whereby cash outflows increase over the lease term. Free rental periods are also sometimes included.

The minimum rentals payable under long‑term operating leases are exclusive of certain operating costs for which the Company is responsible. For the year ended February 3, 2018, the Company has recognized in income (loss) contingent rent amounting to $1,742 [January 28, 2017 — $2,312; January 30, 2016 — $1,829] and accrued for a contingent rent liability of $725 [January 28, 2017 —$1,001].

Included in the cost of sales and selling, general and administration expenses for the year ended February 3, 2018 is rent expense of $31,565 [January 28, 2017 — $29,173; January 30, 2016 — $22,679].

REVOLVING FACILITY	12 Months Ended
REVOLVING FACILITY	Feb. 03, 2018
REVOLVING FACILITY
REVOLVING FACILITY	14. REVOLVING FACILITY The Company has a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with the Bank of Montreal (“BMO”). The Credit Agreement provides for a three-year revolving term facility, maturing October 31, 2019, in the principal amount of $20,000 (which the Company refers to as the “Revolving Facility”) or the equivalent amount in U.S. Dollars, repayable at any time. The Credit Agreement also provides for an accordion feature whereby the Company may, at any time prior to the end of the three-year term and with permission from BMO, request an increase to the Revolving Facility by an amount not greater than $10,000. As at February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017, the Company did not have any borrowings on the Revolving Facility. The Credit Agreement subjects the Company to certain financial covenants. Without the prior written consent of BMO, the Company’s fixed charge coverage ratio may not be less than 1.25:1.00 and the Company’s leverage ratio may not exceed 3.00:1.00. In addition, the Company’s net tangible worth may not be less than $30,000. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility are available in the form of Canadian dollar advances, U.S. dollar advances, prime rate loans, banker’s acceptances, U.S. base rate loans and LIBOR loans. Further, up to an aggregate maximum amount of $2,000, or the equivalent amount in other currencies authorized by BMO, is available by way of letters of credit or letters of guarantees for terms of not more than 364 days. The Revolving Facility bears interest based on the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio. In the event the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio is equal to or less than 3.00:1.00, the Revolving Facility bears interest at (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 0.50% per annum, (b) the bank’s U.S. base rate plus 0.50% per annum, (c) LIBOR plus 1.50% per annum, subject to availability, or (d) 1.50% on the face amount of each banker’s acceptance, letter of credit or letter of guarantee, as applicable. A standby fee of 0.30% will be paid on the daily principal amount of the unused portion of the Revolving Facility. Should the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio be greater than 3.00:1.00 but less than 4.00:1.00, the Revolving Facility bears interest at (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 0.75% per annum, (b) the bank’s U.S. base rate plus 0.75% per annum, (c) LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum, subject to availability, or (d) 1.75% on the face amount of each banker’s acceptance, letter of credit or letter of guarantee, as applicable. A standby fee of 0.35% will be paid on the daily principal amount of the unused portion of the Revolving Facility. If the Company’s adjusted leverage ratio is greater than 4.00:1.00, the Revolving Facility bears interest at (a) the bank’s prime rate plus 1.25% per annum, (b) the bank’s U.S. base rate plus 1.25% per annum, (c) LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum, subject to availability, or (d) 2.25% on the face amount of each banker’s acceptance, letter of credit or letter of guarantee, as applicable. A standby fee of 0.45% will be paid on the daily principal amount of the unused portion of the Revolving Facility. As at February 3, 2018, the bank’s prime rate was 3.45% [January 28, 2017 — 2.70%] and the bank’s U.S base rate was 5.00% [January 28, 2017 — 4.50%]. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by a first lien security interest in all of the Company’s assets in the amount of $37,500, a general security agreement, registered in each Canadian province in which the Company does business, creating a first priority charge on all assets. The Revolving Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, restrict the Company’s ability to become guarantor or endorser or otherwise become liable upon any note or other obligation other than in the normal course of business. The Company also cannot make any dividend payments. As at February 3, 2018, the Company is in compliance with these covenants.

In June 2017, the shareholders of the Company approved a resolution to reduce the stated capital maintained in respect of the common shares by an amount of $155,947, which resulted in a corresponding reduction of the deficit.

During the year ended February 3, 2018, 456,773 stock options were exercised for common shares, for cash proceeds of $1,782 [January 28, 2017 — 1,236,154 stock options for cash proceeds of $2,779]. The carrying value of common shares during the year ended February 3, 2018 includes $887 which corresponds to a reduction in the contributed surplus associated to options exercised during the period.

In addition, during the year ended February 3, 2018, 97,648 common shares [January 28, 2017 —57,325] were issued in relation to the vesting of restricted stock units (“RSU”), resulting in an increase in share capital of $1,142, net of tax [January 28, 2017 —$448].

Stock‑based compensation

The 2015 Omnibus Plan provides for awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, unrestricted stock, stock units (including restricted stock units, “RSUs”), performance awards, deferred share units, elective deferred share units and other awards convertible into or otherwise based on the Company’s common shares. Eligibility for stock options intended to be incentive stock options (“ISOs”) is limited to the Company’s employees. Dividend equivalents may also be provided in connection with an award under the 2015 Omnibus Plan. The maximum term of stock options and SARs is seven years. The options vest evenly over a period of 36 or 48 months, with some options vesting monthly and some options vesting annually. There are no cash settlement alternatives.

The maximum number of the Company’s common shares that are available for issuance under the 2015 Omnibus Plan is 1,440,000 shares. Common shares issued under the 2015 Omnibus Plan may be shares held in treasury or authorized but unissued shares of the Company not reserved for any other purpose. As at February 3, 2018, 770,827 common shares remain available for issuance under the 2015 Omnibus Plan.

The weighted average fair value of options granted of $2.39 for the year ended February 3, 2018 [January 28, 2017 — $3.72] was estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions:

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. Tax Reform”) was signed into law, which reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the U.S. Tax Reform, The Company’s net deferred taxes reported on the balance sheet were required to be re-measured using the newly enacted rates. The effect of this re-evaluation resulted in a decrease in the net deferred tax assets in the amount of $4,892.

The U.S. Tax Reform introduces other important changes in the U.S. corporate income tax laws that may significantly affect the Company in future years, including the creation of a new Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax that subjects certain payments from U.S. corporations to foreign related parties to additional taxes, and limitations to certain deductions for net interest expense incurred by U.S. corporations. The U.S. Tax Reform also includes an increase in bonus depreciation from 50% to 100% for qualified property placed in service after September 27, 2017 and before 2023. Future regulations and interpretations to be issued by U.S. authorities may also impact the Company’s estimates and assumptions used in calculating its income tax provisions.

The tax effects of temporary differences and net operating losses that give rise to deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:


	February 3,	January 28,
	2018	2017

As at February 3, 2018, the Company’s U.S. subsidiary has accumulated losses amounting to US$14.2 million [January 28, 2017 — US$14.9 million; January 30, 2016 — US$9.7 million], which expire during the years 2033 to 2038. Based upon the projections for future taxable income and prudent tax planning strategies, management believes it is no longer probable the Company will realize the benefits of these operating tax losses carried forward. Therefore, a portion of its deferred income tax assets was not recognized this year. See Note 5 for how the Company determines the extent to which the deferred income tax assets are recognized.

The changes in the net deferred income tax asset were as follows for the fiscal years:

EARNINGS PER SHARE

21. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) amounts are calculated by dividing the net income (loss) for the year attributable to ordinary equity holders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS amounts are calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to ordinary equity holders (after adjusting for dividends, accretion interest on the mandatorily redeemable preference shares and gain/loss from embedded derivative on preferred shares) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares, unless these would be anti‑dilutive.

The following reflects the income and share data used in the basic and diluted EPS computations:

SEGMENT INFORMATION

23. SEGMENT INFORMATION

An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. The Company has reviewed its operations and determined that each of its retail stores represents an operating segment. However, because its retail stores have similar economic characteristics, sell similar products, have similar types of customers, and use similar distribution channels, the Company has determined that these operating segments can be aggregated at a geographic level. As a result, the Company has concluded that it has two reportable segments, Canada and the U.S., that derive their revenues from the retail and online sale of tea, tea accessories and food and beverages. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the chief operating decision maker or “CODM”) makes decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assesses performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

The Company derives revenue from the following products:

Tea	156,125	143,280	120,022

US	3,763	12,686	13,657
Total	40,997	54,118	49,572

During the fourth quarter, the Company changed the measure of profit used by the CODM in measuring performance. Management believes that the new measure, being results from operating activities before corporate expenses by country, excluding intercompany profit, is the most relevant in evaluating results. The Company has retroactively revised the results by segment for the years ended January 28, 2017 and January 30, 2016. Results from operating activities before corporate expenses per country are as follows:

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

24. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including risks related to foreign exchange, interest rate, credit, and liquidity.

Currency risk — foreign exchange risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Given that some of its purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk. The Company’s foreign exchange risk is largely limited to currency fluctuations between the Canadian and U.S. dollars. The Company is exposed to currency risk through its cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable denominated in U.S. dollars.

Assuming that all other variables remain constant, a revaluation of these monetary assets and liabilities due to a 5% rise or fall in the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar would have resulted in an increase or decrease to net income (loss) in the amount of $201.

The Company’s foreign exchange exposure is as follows:


	February 3,	January 28,
	2018	2017
	US$	US$
Cash	5,686	690
Accounts receivable	882	1,188
Accounts payable	2,555	2,461

The Company’s U.S. subsidiary’s transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars.

In order to protect itself from the risk of losses should the value of the Canadian dollar decline in relation to the U.S. dollar, the Company has entered into forward contracts to fix the exchange rate of 80% to 90% of its expected U.S. dollar inventory purchasing requirements, through September 2018. A forward foreign exchange contract is a contractual agreement to buy a specific currency at a specific price and date in the future. The Company designated the forward contracts as cash flow hedging instruments under International Accounting Standard 39. This has resulted in mark-to-market foreign exchange adjustments, for qualifying hedged instruments, being recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017. As at February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017, the designated portion of these hedges was considered effective.

The nominal and contract values of foreign exchange contracts outstanding as at February 3, 2018 are as follows:


	Range of	Nominal	Nominal		Unrealized
	Contractual	value	value		gain/(loss)
	exchange rate	US$	C$	Term	C$
Purchase contracts
U.S. dollar	1.2221 - 1.3050	24,100	30,033	February 2018 to September 2018	(229)

The nominal and contract values of foreign exchange contracts outstanding as at January 28, 2017 are as follows:


	Range of	Nominal	Nominal		Unrealized
	Contractual	value	value		gain
	exchange rate	US$	C$	Term	C$
Purchase contracts
U.S. dollar	1.2696 - 1.3098	32,700	42,404	February 2017 to October 2017	454

Market risk — interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to cash flow interest rate risk include financial assets and liabilities with variable interest rates and consist of cash. The Company is exposed to cash flow risk on its Revolving Facility which bears interest at variable interest rates (see Note 14). As at February 3, 2018, the Company did not have any borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. The Company’s liquidity follows a seasonal pattern based on the timing of inventory purchases and capital expenditures. The Company is exposed to this risk mainly in respect of its trade and other payables.

As at February 3, 2018, the Company had $63,484 in cash. In addition, as outlined in Note 14, the Company has a Revolving Facility of $20,000, of which nil was drawn as at February 3, 2018. The Revolving Facility also provides for an accordion feature whereby the Company may, at any time prior to the end of the three-year term, and with the permission of BMO, request an increase to the Revolving Facility by an amount not greater than $10,000.

The Company expects to finance its growth in store base, store renovations, and investments in infrastructure through cash flows from operations, the Revolving Facility (Note 14) and cash on hand. The Company expects that its trade and other payables will be discharged within 90 days.

The following table summarizes the obligations as of February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on liquidity and cash flows in future periods.

Credit risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk resulting from the possibility that counterparties may default on their financial obligations to the Company. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is equal to the carrying value of accounts receivable and derivative financial instruments. Accounts receivable primarily consists of receivables from retail customers who pay by credit card, recoveries of credits from suppliers for returned or damaged products, and receivables from other companies for sales of products, gift cards and other services. Credit card payments have minimal credit risk and the limited number of corporate receivables is closely monitored.

Fair values

Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured on an ongoing basis at fair value or amortized cost. The disclosures in the “Financial instruments” section of Note 3 describe how the categories of financial instruments are measured and how income and expenses, including fair value gains and losses, are recognized. The fair values of derivative financial instruments have been determined by reference to forward exchange rates at the end of the reporting period and classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The classification of financial instruments, as well as their carrying values and fair values, are shown in the tables below:


	February 3, 2018		January 28, 2017
	Carrying	Fair	Carrying	Fair
	value	value	value	value
	$	$	$	$
Financial assets
Derivative financial instruments — foreign forward exchange contracts	239	239	463	463
Financial liabilities
Derivative financial instruments — foreign forward exchange contracts	468	468	9	9

The Company has determined the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based on appropriate valuation methodologies; however, considerable judgment is required to develop these estimates. Accordingly, the estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize or would pay in a current market exchange. The estimated fair value amounts can be materially affected by the use of different assumptions or methodologies. The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below:

The estimated fair value of long‑term debt bearing variable rates is considered to approximate its carrying value [Level 2].

The estimated fair value of loan from controlling shareholder was determined by discounting expected cash flows rates currently offered to the Company for similar debt [Level 2].

The estimated fair value of Series A, A‑1 and A‑2 preferred shares was determined by discounting expected future cash flows rates at the discount rates which represent the cost of borrowing those cash flows [Level 3].

The carrying value of the financial derivative liability is its fair value [Level 3].

The estimated fair value of forward contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the end of the reporting period [Level 2].

The Company categorizes its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value into one of three different levels depending on the observability of the inputs used in the measurement.

Level 1: This level includes assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2: This level includes valuations determined using directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices) observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1. Derivative instruments in this category are valued using models or other standard valuation techniques derived from observable market inputs.

Level 3: This level includes valuations based on inputs which are less observable, unavailable or where the observable data does not support a significant portion of the instruments’ fair value.

There were no significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the years ended February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017.

MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

25. MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

As at February 3, 2018, the Company’s capital is composed of shareholders’ equity as follows:


	February 3,	January 28,
	2018	2017
	$	$
Total debt	—	—
Shareholder’s equity [excluding accumulated other comprehensive income]	99,613	130,263
Total capital under management	99,613	130,263

The Company’s objectives in managing capital are to ensure sufficient liquidity to pursue its organic growth, to establish a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to provide an adequate return to shareholders.

The Company’s primary uses of capital are to finance increases in non‑cash working capital, capital expenditures for its store expansion and renovation program as well as information technology and infrastructure improvements.

The Company currently funds these requirements from cash flows from operations as well as its financial resources, which include a cash balance of $63,484 as at February 3, 2018, the Revolving Facility (Note 14) and through its issuances of common shares (Note 17). The Board does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather promotes year-over-year sustainable profitable growth. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

The Company is subject to certain non‑financial covenants related to its Revolving Facility, all of which were met as at February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017. There has been no change with respect to the overall capital risk management strategy during the years ended February 3, 2018 and January 28, 2017.

GUARANTEES	12 Months Ended
GUARANTEES	Feb. 03, 2018
GUARANTEES
GUARANTEES	26. GUARANTEES Some agreements to which the Company is party, specifically those related to debt agreements and the leasing of its premises, include indemnification provisions that may require the Company to make payments to a third party for breach of fundamental representation and warranty terms in the agreements, with respect to matters such as corporate status, title of assets, environmental issues, consents to transfer, employment matters, litigation, taxes payable and other potential material obligations. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is not reasonably quantifiable as certain indemnifications are not subject to a monetary limitation. As at February 3, 2018, management does not believe that these indemnification provisions would require any material cash payment by the Company, and insurance coverage, estimated by management to be reasonable and sufficient, exists in order to minimize the previously mentioned risks. The Company indemnifies its directors and officers against claims reasonably incurred and resulting from the performance of their services to the Company, and maintains liability insurance for its directors and officers as well as those of its subsidiary.

- Definition

The amount of assets that are: (a) cash; (b) an equity instrument of another entity; (c) a contractual right: (i) to receive cash or another financial asset from another entity; or (ii) to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially favourable to the entity; or (d) a contract that will, or may be, settled in the entity’s own equity instruments and is: (i) a non-derivative for which the entity is, or may be, obliged to receive a variable number of the entity’s own equity instruments; or (ii) a derivative that will, or may be, settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments. For this purpose the entity’s own equity instruments do not include puttable financial instruments classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16A-16B of IAS 32, instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation and are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32, or instruments that are contracts for the future receipt or delivery of the entity’s own equity instruments.

- Definition

The amount of liabilities that are: (a) a contractual obligation: (i) to deliver cash or another financial asset to another entity; or (ii) to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities with another entity under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the entity; or (b) a contract that will, or may be, settled in the entity’s own equity instruments and is: (i) a non-derivative for which the entity is, or may be, obliged to deliver a variable number of the entity’s own equity instruments; or (ii) a derivative that will, or may be, settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments. For this purpose, rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. Also, for those purposes the entity’s own equity instruments do not include puttable financial instruments that are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16A-16B of IAS 32, instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation and are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32, or instruments that are contracts for the future receipt or delivery of the entity’s own equity instruments. As an exception, an instrument that meets the definition of a financial liability is classified as an equity instrument if it has all the features and meets the conditions in paragraphs 16A-16B or paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32.
