2. BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued):

(c) Initial application of new or amended accounting standards:
During the year ended December 29, 2024, the Company adopted the following new or amended accounting standards:

Amendments to International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 1, Presentation of Financial Statements
On January 23, 2020, the IASB issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, to clarify how to classify debt and other liabilities as current or non-current. The amendments (which affect only the presentation of liabilities in the statement of financial position) clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current should be based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period to defer settlement by at least twelve months and make explicit that only rights in place at the end of the reporting period should affect the classification of a liability; clarify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability; and make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets, or services. On October 31, 2022, the IASB issued Non-current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1). These further amendments clarify how to address the effects on classification and disclosure of covenants which an entity is required to comply with on or before the reporting date and covenants which an entity must comply with only after the reporting date. The 2020 amendments and the 2022 amendments (collectively “the Amendments”) are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024 and are applied retrospectively. The amendment of IAS 1 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

IAS 12 Amendment International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules
In May 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board issued the IAS 12 Amendment International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules on mandatory relief for accounting for deferred taxes from the global minimum taxation. The amendments provide a temporary exception from the requirement to recognize and disclose deferred taxes arising from enacted or substantively enacted tax law that implements the Pillar Two model rules published by the OECD, including tax law that implements qualified domestic minimum top-up taxes described in those rules. The amendments also introduced targeted disclosure requirements in the notes for affected entities to enable users of financial statements to understand the extent to which an entity will be affected by the minimum tax, particularly before the legislation comes into force. The amendments to IAS 12 were effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Company updated its disclosures in its 2023 annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, with further updated disclosures in these annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 29, 2024. The Company applied the mandatory temporary exemption from recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 29, 2024.
