September 30, 2022
Note 1: Nature of Operations

Oncolytics Biotech Inc. was incorporated on April 2, 1998 under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) as 779738 Alberta Ltd. On April 8, 1998, we changed our name to Oncolytics Biotech Inc. We are a limited company incorporated and domiciled in Canada. Our shares are publicly traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market and the Toronto Stock Exchange. Our principal place of business is located at 804, 322 11th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing pelareorep, a safe and well-tolerated intravenously delivered immunotherapeutic agent that activates the innate and adaptive immune systems and weakens tumor defense mechanisms. This improves the ability of the immune system to fight cancer, making tumors more susceptible to a broad range of oncology treatments. Our primary focus is to advance our program in hormone receptor-positive / human epidermal growth factor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) metastatic breast cancer to a phase 3 licensure-enabling study. In addition, we are exploring gastrointestinal registration program opportunities through our GOBLET platform study.
We have not been profitable since our inception and expect to continue to incur substantial losses as we continue research and development efforts. As at September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit of $409,696,122. We do not expect to generate significant revenues until, and unless, pelareorep becomes commercially viable. To date, we have funded our operations mainly through the issuance of additional capital via public offerings, equity distribution arrangements, and through the exercise of warrants and stock options. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional funds through the sale of our common shares. Failure to raise additional capital would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
As at September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $32,362,063, and we believe we have sufficient existing cash resources to fund our presently planned operations for at least the next twelve months.
The full extent to which external factors outside of our control, including those related to the coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic and the global political conflict in Ukraine, may directly or indirectly impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, including our ability to finance our operations, expenses, clinical trials, and research and development costs, will depend on future developments that are evolving and highly uncertain. We considered the potential impact of these events, including global supply chain disruptions, inflation, and rising interest rates, when making certain estimates and judgments relating to the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. While there was no material impact to our condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19 and conflict in Ukraine, as well as other factors, could result in a material impact to our consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

Note 2: Basis of Presentation

Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and in compliance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
Our condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on November 3, 2022.
Basis of presentation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value as explained in the notes to these financial statements.
The notes presented in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements include only significant events and transactions occurring since our last fiscal year end and are not fully inclusive of all matters required to be disclosed in our annual audited consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements
6


ONCOLYTICS BIOTECH INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(in Canadian dollars, except share amounts)
September 30, 2022
should be read in conjunction with our most recent annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Our condensed interim consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and the financial statements of our subsidiaries as at September 30, 2022 and are presented in Canadian dollars, our functional currency.
Use of estimates
The preparation of our condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

Note 3: Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies applied in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Accounting Standards and Interpretations Issued but Not Yet Effective

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements
In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements in which it provides guidance and example to help entities apply materiality judgements to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors
In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 8, in which it introduces a new definition of 'accounting estimates'. The amendments clarify the distinction between changes in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies and the correction of errors. Also, the amendments clarify how entities use measurement techniques and inputs to develop accounting estimates. The amendments apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

IAS 12 Income Taxes
In May 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12, which narrows the scope of the initial recognition exception under IAS 12, so that it no longer applies to transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. The amendments apply to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023, with earlier application permitted. The amendments apply prospectively to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. We are assessing the impact of adopting this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 4: Cash Equivalents
 
Cash equivalents consist of interest-bearing deposits with our bank totaling $29,949,747 (December 31, 2021 – $39,901,509).  The current annual interest rate earned on these deposits is 2.80% (December 31, 2021 – 0.45%).

Incentive Share Award Plan

Restricted Share Units ("RSUs")
We have granted RSUs to non-employee directors through our incentive share award plan. Grants of RSUs to non-employee directors vest either immediately, on the third anniversary date from the grant date or when the director ceases to be a member of the board. We have also granted RSUs to certain officers and employees of the Company. Grants of RSUs to certain officers and employees of the Company vest over a three-year period. Our RSU activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was as follows:
20222021
Outstanding, beginning of the period40,560 134,618 
Released(40,560)(53,388)
Outstanding, end of the period 81,230 

We have reserved 5,870,644 common shares for issuance relating to our outstanding equity compensation plans. Our share-based compensation expense was $499,924 and $1,629,016 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively (September 30, 2021 - $1,006,920 and $2,697,238, respectively).

Note 7: Loss Per Common Share
 
Loss per common share is calculated using net loss for the period and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 of 58,325,075 and 57,529,973, respectively (September 30, 2021 - 54,960,650 and 53,003,541, respectively). The effect of any potential exercise of our stock options and warrants outstanding during the period has been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per common share, as it would be anti-dilutive.

Note 8: Commitments
 
We are committed to payments totaling approximately $16,800,000 for activities mainly related to our clinical trial, manufacturing, and translational science programs, which are expected to occur over the next three years. We are able to cancel most of these agreements with notice.
Our commitments include the committed payments related to our co-development agreement with Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, and Pfizer Inc ("Pfizer"), known as BRACELET-1, as this phase 2 clinical trial is jointly funded by Oncolytics and Pfizer. As at September 30, 2022, we recorded US$278,268 ($381,421) (December 31, 2021 - US$616,855 ($782,049)) in other receivables related to BRACELET-1 cost from Pfizer per the terms of the collaboration agreement and nil (December 31, 2021 - US$277,866 ($352,279)) in other liabilities representing future trial costs to be incurred.

Under a clinical trial agreement entered into with the Alberta Cancer Board (“ACB”), we have agreed to repay the amount funded under the agreement together with a royalty, to a combined maximum amount of $400,000 plus an overhead repayment of $100,000, upon sales of a specified product. We agreed to repay the ACB in annual installments in an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 5% of gross sales of a specified product; or (b) $100,000 per annum once sales of a specified product commence.
Leases
Our portfolio of leases consists of office spaces with initial lease terms generally between 3 to 6 years. We currently do not have leases with residual value guarantees or leases not yet commenced to which we are committed. We have variable lease payments related to office space lease operating costs that are not material. Lease liabilities have been measured by discounting future lease payments using our incremental borrowing rate as rates implicit in the leases were not readily determinable.
Our total undiscounted lease liability as at September 30, 2022 was as follows:

Note 9: Capital Disclosures
 
Our objective when managing capital is to maintain a strong statement of financial position. We achieve our objective by obtaining adequate cash resources to support planned activities which include the clinical trial program, product manufacturing, administrative costs, and intellectual property protection. We include shareholders' equity and cash and cash equivalents in the definition of capital.

Cash and cash equivalents$32,362,063 $41,262,044 
Shareholders’ equity$28,396,627 $36,098,985 

We do not have any debt other than accounts payable and accrued liabilities and lease liabilities. We have commitments and contingent obligations relating to the completion of our research and development of pelareorep.
In managing our capital, we estimate our future cash requirements by preparing a budget and a multi-year plan annually for review and approval by our Board. The budget establishes the approved activities for the upcoming year and estimates the costs associated with these activities. The multi-year plan estimates future activity along with the potential cash requirements and is based on our assessment of our current clinical trial progress along with the expected results from the coming year’s activity. Budget to actual variances are prepared and reviewed by management and are presented quarterly to the Board.
Historically, funding for our plan is primarily managed through the issuance of additional common shares and common share purchase warrants that upon exercise are converted to common shares. Management regularly monitors the capital markets attempting to balance the timing of issuing additional equity with our progress through our clinical trial program, general market conditions, and the availability of capital. There are no assurances that funds will be made available to us when required.
On June 16, 2022, we renewed our short form base shelf prospectus (the "Base Shelf") that qualifies for distribution of up to $150,000,000 of common shares, subscription receipts, warrants, or units (the "Securities") in either Canada, the U.S. or both. Under a Base Shelf, we may sell Securities to or through underwriters, dealers, placement agents, or other intermediaries, and also may sell Securities directly to purchasers or through agents, subject to obtaining any applicable exemption from registration requirements. The distribution of Securities may be affected from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, which may be subject to change, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, or at prices related to such prevailing market prices to be negotiated with purchasers and as set forth in an accompanying Prospectus Supplement.

Renewing our Base Shelf provides us with additional flexibility when managing our cash resources as, under certain circumstances, it shortens the time period required to close a financing and is expected to increase the number of potential investors that may be prepared to invest in the Company. Funds received as a result of using our Base Shelf would be used in line with our Board approved budget and multi-year plan. Our renewed Base Shelf will be effective until July 16, 2024.
Our Base Shelf allowed us to enter into our US$65,000,000 ATM equity distribution agreement in June 2022 (see Note 5). We use this equity arrangement to assist us in achieving our capital objective. This arrangement provides us with the opportunity to raise capital and better manage our cash resources.
We are not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and there have been no changes in how we define or manage our capital in 2022.

Note 10: Financial Instruments
 
Fair value of financial instruments

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and warrant derivative. As at September 30, 2022, the carrying amount of our cash and cash equivalents, other receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated their fair value. The warrant derivative is a recurring Level 2 fair value measurement as these warrants have not been listed on an exchange and therefore do not trade on an active market. As at September 30, 2022, the fair value of our warrant derivative was $50,030 (December 31, 2021 - $56,017). We use the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate fair value. The expected volatility is based on the Company's common share historical volatility less an estimated market participant risk adjustment. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Department of Treasury benchmark treasury yield rates with an approximate equivalent remaining term in effect at the time of valuation and the expected life represents the estimated length of time the warrants are expected to remain outstanding.  
Financial risk management
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. We are exposed to credit risk on our cash and cash equivalents and other receivables from Pfizer in connection with the BRACELET-1
study (see Note 8) in the event of non-performance by counterparties, but we do not anticipate such non-performance. Our maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the period is the carrying value of our cash and cash equivalents and other receivables.
We mitigate our exposure to credit risk by maintaining our primary operating and investment bank accounts with Schedule I banks in Canada. For our foreign-domiciled bank accounts, we use referrals or recommendations from our Canadian banks to open foreign bank accounts and these accounts are used solely for the purpose of settling accounts payable or payroll.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. We are exposed to interest rate risk through our cash and cash equivalents. We mitigate this risk through our investment policy that only allows investment of excess cash resources in investment-grade vehicles while matching maturities with our operational requirements.
Fluctuations in market rates of interest do not have a significant impact on our results of operations due to the short term to maturity of the investments held.
Foreign exchange risk
Foreign exchange risk arises from changes in foreign exchange rates that may affect the fair value or future cash flows of our financial assets or liabilities. We are primarily exposed to the risk of changes in the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar as a portion of our financial assets and liabilities are denominated in such currency. The impact of a $0.01 increase in the value of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar would have decreased our net comprehensive loss in 2022 by approximately $188,000.

We mitigate our foreign exchange risk by maintaining sufficient foreign currencies, through the purchase of foreign currencies or receiving foreign currencies from financing activities, to settle our foreign accounts payable.
Significant balances in foreign currencies at September 30, 2022 are as follows:

U.S. dollars

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities(1,345,402)(705,472)
$20,032,065 (705,472)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. We manage liquidity risk through the management of our capital structure as outlined in Note 9. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are all due within the current operating period.
