Controls and Procedures
The Registrant has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that the material information relating to the Registrant is made known to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others, particularly during the period in which annual and interim filings are prepared and that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in its annual, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by the Registrant under Canadian and U.S. securities laws is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under those laws and the related rules. The effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under National Instrument 52-109 adopted by Canadian securities regulators and in Rule 13a-15(e) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, was evaluated by management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Registrant’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of the end of the Registrant’s most recently completed fiscal year on September 30, 2024. Based on such evaluations, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at September 30, 2024.
The Registrant has also established and maintains internal control over financial reporting, as defined under National Instrument 52-109 and in Rule 13a-15(f) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Registrant. The Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by management and other key personnel of the Registrant, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. However, because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. The effectiveness of the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting as at September 30, 2024 was evaluated by management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Registrant’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of the end of the Registrant’s most recently completed fiscal year on September 30, 2024 based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO 2013). Based on that evaluation, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as at September 30, 2024.
The Registrant’s assessment and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting excludes the controls, policies and procedures of Aeyon LLC (“Aeyon”), the control of which was acquired on September 13, 2024. Aeyon’s results since the acquisition date represented 0.1% of revenue for the year ended September 30, 2024 and constituted 3.2% of total assets as at September 30, 2024.
The effectiveness of the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2024 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PCAOB Firm ID 271), an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Annual Report.
There have been no changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
