Basis of Preparation [Abstract] |
Basis of Preparation | 2. Basis of Preparation (a) Statement of compliance These consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). (b) Basis of preparation These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis, except for cash flow information, and are based on the historical cost, modified where applicable and related to the valuation of certain financial assets and financial liabilities to fair value. Cannahealth and its subsidiaries, Bophelo Holdings Ltd, Bophelo Bio Science and Wellness (Pty) Ltd, and Canmart were under the common control of Halo until the acquisition by the Company had occurred. As of November 2021, shareholdings in each of the three separate entities were made consistent through the issuance of shares or the repurchase of shares for cash to the relevant shareholders (the ‘Reorganization Transactions’). As of November 2021, shareholdings in each of the four entities were identical. When the Company was formed in July 2021 with a view to ultimately acquiring Cannahealth and its subsidiaries, its majority shareholders were also consistent with each of the three existing entities. Therefore, immediately prior to the acquisition, the majority shareholder ownership of the Company and Cannahealth were demonstrated common control, and immediately after the acquisition, the shareholdings held in the Company by each individual shareholder were also identical. The Company performed an assessment and determined Bophelo Bio Science and Wellness (Pty) Ltd to be the predecessor entity to the Company, and that the corporate restructuring in which Akanda became the parent company did not have economic substance. As such, in preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company accounted for the acquisition in as a transaction between entities under common control combining the Company and Cannahealth from the earliest reporting date using the ‘pooling of interests method’ of accounting, where assets for the Companies that came under common control were transferred into the consolidated group at the book value on the date in which common control was achieved. In the acquisition described above, shares were issued to existing shareholders for no consideration. Therefore, the number of shares outstanding was increased without an increase in resources. The number of shares outstanding before the exchange have been adjusted for the change in shares as if the issuance had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. All share and per share information presented herein has been retrospectively adjusted to give effect to the culmination of the reorganization and the issuance of shares on incorporation of Akanda on January 1, 2019. (c) Functional and presentation currency The Company and its subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each subsidiary operates — the functional currency. The Euro is the functional currency of RPK, Holigen and Cannahealth, Great British Pounds is the functional currency of Canmart and Canadian Dollars is the functional currency of 1371011 and Akanda while the United States Dollars is its reporting currency. These consolidated financial statements are prepared and presented in United States Dollars (“USD” or “$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency. All financial information has been rounded to the nearest dollar except where indicated otherwise. (d) Use of estimates and judgments The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses during the year. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Areas in which management has made critical judgments in the process of applying accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements include the determination of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ functional currencies. Information about key assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are included in the following notes to the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022: • Note 3(d): Estimates of variable consideration receivable from revenue from contracts with customers • Note 3(f): Estimates of the net realizable value of the Company’s inventories • Note 3(g): Estimates of the fair value of the Company’s biological assets • Note 3(h): Measurement and useful lives of the Company’s property, plant and equipment • Note 3(i): Measurement and useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets • Note 3(k): Estimates and assessment of the income tax assets/liabilities • Note 3(l): Estimates of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate used in the valuation of its leases
