| The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable. The Company is exposed to risks related to changes in interest rates and management of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash. These assets include Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar denominated certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and demand deposits. These instruments are maintained at financial institutions in Canada and the U.S. Of the amount held on deposit, approximately $0.5 million is covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, leaving approximately $28.8 million at risk on June 30, 2021 should the financial institutions with which these amounts are invested be rendered insolvent. The Company does not consider any of its financial assets to be impaired as of June 30, 2021. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. As of June 30, 2021, the current Company’s financial liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $2.7 million. As of June 30, 2021, we had $21.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. In addition to our cash position, our finished, ready-to-sell, conversion facility inventory value is immediately realizable, if necessary. We do not anticipate selling our existing finished-product inventory in 2021, unless market conditions change sufficiently to warrant its sale. Sensitivity analysis The Company has completed a sensitivity analysis to estimate the impact that a change in interest rates would have on the net loss of the Company. This sensitivity analysis shows that a change of +/- 100 basis points in interest rate would have a negligible effect on the three months ended June 30, 2021. The financial position of the Company may vary at the time that a change in interest rates occurs causing the impact on the Company’s results to vary.
