Statement of compliance These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The policies applied in these consolidated financial statements were based on IFRS issued and outstanding at December 31, 2020. The Company presents its consolidated statement of financial position on a non-classified basis in order of liquidity. These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) on March 23, 2021. These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the payment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be unable to realize the carrying value of its assets and to meet its liabilities as they become due in the normal course. Management routinely plans future activities which includes forecasting future cash flows. Management has reviewed their plan with the Board and has collectively formed a judgment that the Company has adequate resources to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future, which Management and the Board have defined as being at least the next 12 months. In arriving at this judgment, Management has considered the following: (i) cash flow projections of the Company, which incorporates a rolling forecast and detailed cash flow modeling through the current fiscal year, and (ii) the base of investors and debt lenders historically available to the Company. The expected cash flows have been modeled based on anticipated revenue and profit streams with debt programmed into the model. Refer to notes 10, 12, 13, 14 and 24 for details on amounts that may come due in the next 12 months. For these reasons, the Company continues to adopt a going concern basis in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Functional and presentation currency These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company's and its subsidiaries functional currency. Basis of consolidation The Company has consolidated the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all its subsidiaries and its structured entity. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mogo Finance, Mogo Financial (Alberta) Inc., Mogo Financial (B.C.) Inc., Mogo Financial Inc., Mogo Financial (Ontario) Inc., Mogo Mortgage Technology Inc., Hornby Loan Brokers (Ottawa) Inc., Hornby Leasing Inc., Mogo Technology Inc. (a US subsidiary), Mogo Blockchain Technology Inc., Mogo Wealth Technology Inc., Thurlow Management Inc., Thurlow Capital (Alberta) Inc., Thurlow Capital (B.C.) Inc., Thurlow Capital (Manitoba) Inc., Thurlow Capital (Ontario) Inc., and Thurlow Capital (Ottawa) Inc. and its special purpose entity, Mogo Finance Trust (the “Trust”). The financial statements of the subsidiaries and the Trust are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
2. | Basis of presentation (Continued from previous page)
An entity is consolidated if the Company concludes that it controls the entity. The following circumstances may indicate a relationship in which, in substance, Mogo controls and therefore consolidates the entity:
| • | The Company has power over the entity whereby the Company has the ability to direct the relevant activities (i.e., the activities that affect the entity’s returns);
| • | The Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity; and
| • | The Company has the ability to use its power over the entity to affect the amount of the entity’s returns.
Special purpose entities (“SPEs”) are entities that are created to accomplish a narrow and well-defined objective such as the execution of a specific borrowing or lending transaction. An SPE is consolidated, if based on an evaluation of the substance of its relationship with the Company, and the SPE’s risks and rewards, the Company concludes that it controls the SPE. Mogo’s activities with respect to the Trust has resulted in the Company consolidating the Trust within these consolidated financial statements. All inter‑company balances, income and expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from inter‑company transactions are eliminated in full.
