Corporate History 

Our company was incorporated in Delaware on March 10, 1994, under the name of Beta Acquisition Corp. In September 1995, we changed our name to In-Sports International, Inc. In August 2002, we changed our name from In-Sports International, Inc. to ECash, Inc. In 2007, due to limited financial resources, we discontinued our operations. Over the course of the ensuing five years, we sought out new business opportunities.

On June 13, 2012, we changed our name to Pacific Green Technologies Inc. and effected a reverse split of our common stock following which we had 27,002 shares of common stock outstanding with $0.001 par value.

Effective December 4, 2012, we filed with the Delaware Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation, wherein we increased our authorized share capital to 510,000,000 shares of stock as follows:

The increase of authorized capital was approved by our board of directors on July 1, 2012 and by a majority of our stockholders by a resolution dated July 1, 2012.

Original Strategy and Recent Business

Since 2012, the Company has focused on marketing, developing and acquiring technologies designed to improve the environment by reducing pollution. The Company has acquired technologies, patents and intellectual property from EnviroTechnologies Inc. through share transfer, assignment and representation agreements entered into during 2012 and 2013. Following those acquisitions, management has expanded the registration of intellectual property rights around the world and pursued opportunities globally for the development and marketing of the emission control technologies.

Working with a worldwide network of agents to market the ENVI-Systems™ emission control technologies, the Company has focused on three applications of the technology:

ENVI-Marine ^TM

Diesel exhaust from ships, ferries and tankers includes ash and soot as particulate components and sulphur dioxide as an acid gas. Testing has been conducted on diesel shipping to confirm the application of seawater as a neutralizing agent for sulphur emissions as well as capturing particulate matter. In addition to marine applications, these tests also showed applicability of the system for large displacement engines such as stationary generators, compressors, container handling, heavy construction and mining equipment.

ENVI-Pure ^TM

Increasing legislation relating to landfill of municipal solid waste has led to the emergence of increasing numbers of waste to energy plants (“WtE”). A WtE plant obviates the need for landfill, burning municipal waste for conversion to electricity. A WtE plant is typically 45-100MW. The ENVI-Clean™ system is particularly suited to WtE as it cleans multiple pollutants in a single system.

ENVI-Clean ^TM

EnviroTechnologies Inc. has successfully conducted sulphur dioxide demonstration tests at the American Bituminous Coal Partners power plant in Grant Town, West Virginia. The testing achieved a three test average of 99.3% removal efficiency. The implementation of US Clean Air regulations in July 2010 has created additional demand for sulphur dioxide removal in all industries emitting sulphur pollution. Furthermore, China consumes approximately one half of the world’s coal, but introduced measures designed to reduce energy and carbon intensity in its 12th Five Year Plan. Applications include regional power facilities and heating for commercial buildings and greenhouses. Typical applications range in size from 1 to 20 megawatts (MW) with power generation occupying the larger end of the range. The ENVI-Clean™ system removes most of the sulphur dioxide, particulate matter, greenhouse gases and other hazardous air pollutants from the flue gases produced by the combustion of coal, biomass, municipal solid waste, diesel and other fuels.

Vision & Strategy

Pacific Green envisions a world of rapidly growing demand for renewable energy technological solutions to address the challenges presented by a changing climate. Having achieved success in marine emission control technologies we have now broadened our business to provide turnkey and scalable end-to-end technology solutions in the renewable energy sector. Our technological platform now has four main components:

In all the above areas, the Company plans to execute this vision by a dual strategy of equipment sales and proactive infrastructure ownership, each to be led by acquisitions of technology capabilities and project investment opportunities, highlighted to date by the following events:

In support of this dual strategy, we have adopted a Human Resource Strategy that seeks to hire the best talent in the core areas of our business. At March 31, 2021 the Company employed approximately 59 staff across a network of offices around the world. Our hiring plan includes the addition of sales and project execution specialists.

Strategic Partnerships

Pacific Green has forged global partnerships with private and state-owned energy providers and owners. This strategic alignment with leading energy industry platforms empowers Pacific Green to provide quickly scalable solutions in the core areas of our business, to gather unique insights on cutting-edge trends and leverage recurring revenue opportunities that enable us to cross-sell products and services.

The Company has entered into several partnership and framework agreements in the core areas of our business.

Amkest Group is overseen by its founder, Amr Khashoggi, who holds board positions in numerous influential companies and government bodies across the Kingdom and is currently serving as Strategic Advisor to the Kingdom’s prominent new development city, King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC). Amkest Group’s leadership team is led by Chief Executive Officer, Salman Alireza, whose background includes various founding, executive and director-level positions in the business development sector within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in addition to an MBA from London Business School.

Significant Events

On October 16, 2020, Alexander Shead resigned as a director of the Company. Mr. Shead s resignation did not result from any disagreement with the Company regarding our policies, practices, or otherwise.

On October 19, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Innoergy, a designer of battery energy storage systems registered in the United Kingdom whose client include Osaka Gas Co. Ltd, in Japan, and Limejump Limited in the UK, a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell plc. The acquisition marks the Company’s entry into the BESS market in conjunction with its joint venture partner, PowerChina SPEM. Consideration for the acquisition of 100% of Innoergy was determined to be $633,911.

On December 2, 2020, the Company signed a Joint-Venture Agreement with Amr Khashoggi Trading Company Limited to incorporate a company in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the sale of Pacific Green’s environmental technologies within the region. As at June 29, the process of incorporating this entity is still underway.

On February 2, 2021, the Company executed a settlement agreement and a postponement agreement with Scorpio Bulkers Inc. (“SALT”) and Scorpio Tankers Inc. (STNG), respectively. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, SALT has been released from its commitments and guarantees related to its previous purchase contracts in exchange for: (1) $7,215,000 paid within 5 days of settlement, and (2) deposits and other monies already transferred to the Company with respect to the contracts.

Government Regulations

Some aspects of our intended operations will be subject to a variety of federal, provincial, state and local laws, rules and regulations in North America and worldwide relating to, among other things, worker safety and the use, storage, discharge and disposal of environmentally sensitive materials. For example, we are subject to the Resource Conservation Recovery Act (“RCRA”), the principal federal legislation regulating hazardous waste generation, management, and disposal.

Under some of the laws regulating the use, storage, discharge and disposal of environmentally sensitive materials, an owner or lessee of real estate may be liable for the costs of removing or remediating certain hazardous or toxic substances located on or in, or emanating from, such property, as well as related costs of investigation and property damage. Laws of this nature often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or lessee knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances. These laws and regulations may require the removal or remediation of pollutants and may impose civil and criminal penalties for violations. Some of the laws and regulations authorize the recovery of natural resource damages by the government, injunctive relief and the imposition of stop, control, remediation, and abandonment orders. The costs arising from compliance with environmental and natural resource laws and regulations may increase operating costs for both us and our potential customers. We are also subject to safety policies of jurisdictional-specific Workers Compensation Boards and similar agencies regulating the health and safety of workers.

We are not aware of any material violations of environmental permits, licenses or approvals issued with respect to our operations. We expect to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to our intended business. At this time, we do not anticipate any material capital expenditures to comply with environmental or various regulations and requirements.

Employees

As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s subsidiaries employed people in Canada, United Kingdom, Hong Kong and China. The Company also relies heavily upon the use of contractors and consultants. The Company employed approximately 59 staff as of March 31, 2021 (110 as of March 31, 2020). The reduction in staff from prior year levels was driven by various restructuring activities, particularly in the marine sector, including the closure on June 19, 2020, of the sales office in Oslo, Norway, resultant from a combination of COVID-19 and the drop in the price of low-sulphur fuel in the marine market. More recently, the Company has hired new staff to support the anticipated growth in the Batteries and Solar businesses.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Risks Related to our Business

We have a limited operating history with significant losses.

We have yet to establish a sustained history of profitable operations. We incurred a cumulative deficit of $74,140,257 for the period from April 5, 2011 (inception) to March 31, 2021. We generated our first revenues during the year ended March 31, 2018 of $1,995,000. We generated our first net income during the year ended March 31, 2020 of $10,381,420 and further net income during the year ended March 31, 2021 of $1,181,078. Our profitability will depend on our ability to successfully market and sell the Technologies and there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so. The economic driver for the purchase by shipping companies for our marine scrubbers is primarily the spread between low-cost (high sulphur) bunker fuel and high-cost (low sulphur) bunker fuel. Following the oil price drop of 2020 which saw the fuel price spread drop significantly from over $200/tonne to $50/tonne, the demand for our scrubbers fell away. In recent months, the spread has risen to over $100/tonne which provides a strong indication of a possible return of demand, but it is not clear whether this is a continuing upward trend or a temporary rise and we cannot provide assurance of the resumption in demand for our marine scrubber technology. Over the last year we have been exploring alternative strategies to complement our emission control Technologies, and have identified opportunities for both concentrated solar power and battery energy storage systems technologies in various geographies around the world, to support a global transition away from the use of hydrocarbons. We are taking a medium- to long-term view of these opportunities and are at an early stage in pursuing and developing them, and there is no certainty that these will grow and become profitable and cash-generative ventures for us.

We may not be able to secure additional financing to meet our future capital needs due to changes in general economic conditions.

We anticipate needing significant capital to develop our sales force and effectively market the Technologies. We may use capital more rapidly than currently anticipated and incur higher operating expenses than currently expected, and we may be required to depend on external financing to satisfy our operating and capital needs. We may need new or additional financing in the future to conduct our operations or expand our business. Any sustained weakness in the general economic conditions and/or financial markets in the United States or globally could adversely affect our ability to raise capital on favorable terms or at all. From time to time we have relied, and may also rely in the future, on access to financial markets as a source of liquidity to satisfy working capital requirements and for general corporate purposes. We may be unable to secure debt or equity financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, at the time when we need such funding.

Beginning in 2020, the global COVID-19 pandemic significantly increased the volatility of financial markets worldwide. Significant volatility or disruptions of the capital markets could eliminate our access to financing, and/or significantly increase its cost. Such volatility or disruptions in the capital markets may cause lenders to be unwilling to provide us with financing to fund our ongoing operations and growth.

If we do raise funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership percentages of existing stockholders would be reduced, and the securities that we issue may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock or may be issued at a discount to the market price of our common stock which would result in dilution to our existing stockholders. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt, we may be subject to debt covenants, which could place limitations on our operations including our ability to declare and pay dividends. Our inability to raise additional funds on a timely basis would make it difficult for us to achieve our business objectives and would have a negative impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, delays and difficulties frequently encountered in establishing a new business in an emerging and evolving industry, including the following factors:

We cannot be sure that we will be successful in meeting these challenges and addressing these risks and uncertainties. If we are unable to do so, our business will not be successful and the value of your investment in us will decline.

Our business is subject to environmental and consumer protection legislation and any changes in such legislation could prevent us from becoming profitable.

The energy production and technology industries are subject to many laws and regulations which govern the protection of the environment, quality control standards, health and safety requirements, and the management, transportation and disposal of hazardous substances and other waste. Environmental laws and regulations may require removal or remediation of pollutants and may impose civil and criminal penalties for violations. Some environmental laws and regulations authorize the recovery of natural resource damages by the government, injunctive relief and the imposition of stop, control, remediation, and abandonment orders. Similarly, consumer protection laws impose quality control standards on products marketed to the public and prohibit the distribution and marketing of products not meeting those standards.

The costs arising from compliance with environmental and consumer protection laws and regulations may increase operating costs for both us and our potential customers. Any regulatory changes that impose additional environmental restrictions or quality control requirements on us or on our potential customers could adversely affect us through increased operating costs and potential decreased demand for our services, which could prevent us from becoming profitable.

The development and expansion of our business through acquisitions, joint ventures, and other strategic transactions may create risks that may reduce the benefits we anticipate from these strategic alliances and may prevent us from achieving or sustaining profitability.

We intend to enter into technology acquisition and licensing agreements and strategic alliances such as joint ventures or partnerships in order to develop and commercialize our proposed technologies and services, and to increase our competitiveness. Our management is unable to predict whether or when we will secure any such commitments or agreements, or whether such commitments or agreements will be secured on favorable terms and conditions.

Our ability to continue or expand our operations through acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic alliances depends on many factors, including our ability to identify acquisitions, joint ventures, or partnerships, or access capital markets on acceptable terms. Even if we are able to identify strategic alliance targets, we may be unable to obtain the necessary financing to complete these transactions and could financially overextend ourselves.

Acquisitions, joint ventures or other strategic transactions may present financial, managerial and operational challenges, including diversion of management attention from existing business and difficulties in integrating operations and personnel. Acquisitions or other strategic alliances also pose the risk that we may be exposed to successor liability relating to prior actions involving a predecessor company, or contingent liabilities incurred before a strategic transaction. Due diligence conducted in connection with an acquisition, and any contractual guarantees or indemnities that we receive from sellers of acquired companies, may not be sufficient to protect us from, or compensate us for, actual liabilities. Liabilities associated with an acquisition or a strategic transaction could adversely affect our business and financial performance and reduce the benefits of the acquisition or strategic transaction. Any failure to integrate new businesses or manage any new alliances successfully could adversely affect our business and financial performance and prevent us from achieving profitability. 

We are dependent upon our officers for execution of our business plan.

As a result, our future success depends heavily upon the continuing services of the members of our senior management team. If one or more of our senior executives or other key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them easily or at all, and our business may be disrupted, and our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. Competition for senior management and key personnel is intense, the pool of qualified candidates is very limited, and we may not be able to retain the services of our senior executives or key personnel or attract and retain high-quality senior executives or key personnel in the future. We do not currently maintain key man insurance on our senior managers. The loss of the services of our senior management team and employees could result in a disruption of operations which could result in reduced revenues.

Outbreaks of epidemic diseases, including COVID-19, could adversely impact our business operations.

The novel coronavirus pandemic is dynamic and expanding, and its ultimate scope, duration and effects are uncertain. We expect that this pandemic, and any future epidemic or pandemic crises, could result in direct and indirect adverse effects on our industry and customers, which in turn may impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. Effects of the current pandemic include, or may include, among others:

Although disruption and effects from the novel coronavirus pandemic may be temporary, given the dynamic nature of these circumstances and the worldwide nature of our business and operations, the duration of any business disruption and the related financial impact to us cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but could materially affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Significant drop in oil price may have a material adverse effect on our business.

In March 2020, Saudi Arabia triggered an oil price war in response to Russia’s refusal to reduce oil production in order to keep prices for oil at moderate level. This economic conflict resulted in a sharp drop of oil price over the spring of 2020, including low sulphur fuel oil. The corresponding reduction in the price of low sulphur fuel oil could negatively affect the demand for our marine scrubbers. Fuels with higher sulphur content have been cheaper than low sulphur fuel historically. Our marine scrubbers allow our customers to use fuels with higher sulphur content. A decrease in the demand for marine scrubbers, which allow the use of heavy fuel oil under IMO 2020, could reduce our sales of marine scrubbers.

Adverse economic conditions

Economic downturns and financial crises in the global markets could produce illiquidity in the capital markets, market volatility, increased exposure to interest rate and credit risks and reduced access to capital markets. If global financial markets and economic conditions significantly deteriorate in the future, we may face restricted access to the capital markets or bank lending, which may make it more difficult and costly to fund future growth. Decreased access to such resources could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Adverse economic conditions or other developments relating directly to our customers may lead to a decline in our customers’ operations or ability to pay for our services, which could result in decreased demand for our services. Our customers’ inability to pay for any reason could also result in their default on our current contracts and charters. The decline in the amount of services requested by our customers or their default on our contracts with them could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be unable to make or realize expected benefits from acquisitions and implementing our long-term strategy of growth through acquisitions may harm our financial condition and performance

A principal component of our long-term strategy is to continue to grow by expanding our business both in the geographic areas and markets where we have historically focused as well as into new geographic areas, market segments and services. We may not be successful in expanding our operations and any expansion may not be profitable. Our long-term strategy of growth through acquisitions involves business risks commonly encountered in acquisitions of companies, including:

Acquisitions may not be profitable to us at the time of their completion and may not generate revenues sufficient to justify our investment. In addition, our acquisition growth strategy exposes us to risks that may harm our results of operations and financial condition, including risks that we may: fail to realize anticipated benefits, such as cost-savings, revenue and cash flow enhancements and earnings accretion; decrease our liquidity by using a significant portion of our available cash or borrowing capacity to finance acquisitions; incur additional indebtedness, which may result in significantly increased interest expense or financial leverage, or issue additional equity securities to finance acquisitions, which may result in significant shareholder dilution; incur or assume unanticipated liabilities, losses or costs associated with the business acquired; or incur other significant charges, such as impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets, asset devaluation or restructuring charges.

Exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations results in fluctuations in our cashflows and operating results

Substantially all of our revenues are earned in U.S. dollars, although we will be paid in GB pounds and Australian dollars for future anticipated UK-based and Australian-based battery energy storage system contracts, respectively. A portion of our operating costs are incurred in currencies other than U.S. dollars. This partial mismatch in operating revenues and expenses leads to fluctuations in net income due to changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies, in particular the GB pound. Because we report our operating results in U.S. dollars, changes in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies also result in fluctuations of our reported revenues and earnings. Under U.S. accounting guidelines, all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advances from affiliates and long-term debt are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the applicable period. This revaluation historically has caused us to report significant unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses each period.

We are at risk that the Technologies will not perform to expectations.

As at the date of this annual report, the Technologies have been tested to satisfactory requirements but there is no guarantee that the Technologies will continue to perform satisfactorily in the future which would damage our prospects.

The market for alternative energy products, technologies or services is emerging and rapidly evolving and its future success is uncertain. Insufficient demand for the Technologies would prevent us from achieving or sustaining profitability.

It is possible that we may spend large sums of money to bring the Technologies to market, but demand may not develop or may develop more slowly than we anticipate.

Our future success is currently dependent on our Technologies and:

We may be unable to develop widespread commercial markets for our Technologies. We may be unable to achieve or sustain profitability.

Competition within the renewable energy industry may prevent us from becoming profitable.

The renewal energy industry is competitive and fragmented and includes numerous small companies capable of competing effectively in the market we target as well as several large companies that possess substantially greater financial and other resources than we do. Larger competitors’ greater resources could allow those competitors to compete more effectively than we can with our Technologies. A number of competitors have developed more mature businesses than us and have successfully built their names in the international alternative energy markets. These various competitors may be able to offer products, sustainability technologies or services more competitively priced and more widely available than our Technologies and may also have greater resources to create or develop new technologies and products than us. Failure to compete in the alternative energy industry may prevent us from becoming profitable, and thus you may lose your entire investment.

We are at risk that we are unable to manufacture our Technologies in accordance with contractual terms.

All contracts which we secure for the sale of our Technologies will require that we supply a functioning emission control system. There is a risk that we are unable to manufacture and supply our Technologies in accordance with contractual terms. Any failure by us to perform our obligations under any such contract may have a detrimental impact on our financial standing and reputation.

Risks Related to our Stockholders and Shares of Common Stock

The continued sale of our equity securities will dilute the ownership percentage of our existing stockholders and may decrease the market price for our common stock.

As of March 31^st, 2021, the Company’s cash reserves are approximately $23.4 million. We expect to continue our efforts to market, manufacture and deliver our Technologies to customers. Should the Company need additional resources, we may consider selling additional equity securities which will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. In short, our continued need to sell equity will result in reduced percentage ownership interests for all of our investors, which may decrease the market price for our common stock.

We do not intend to pay dividends and there will thus be fewer ways in which you are able to make a gain on your investment.

We have never paid dividends and do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent that we may require additional funding currently not provided for in our financing plan, our funding sources may prohibit the declaration of dividends. Because we do not intend to pay dividends, any gain on your investment will need to result from an appreciation in the price of our common stock. There will therefore be fewer ways in which you are able to make a gain on your investment. In the future when we do intend to pay dividends, we will formalize a dividend policy.

Because the SEC imposes additional sales practice requirements on brokers who deal in shares of penny stocks, some brokers may be unwilling to trade our securities. This means that you may have difficulty reselling your shares, which may cause the value of your investment to decline.

Our shares are classified as penny stocks and are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) which imposes additional sales practice requirements on brokers-dealers who sell our securities in this offering or in the aftermarket. For sales of our securities, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination and receive a written agreement prior from you to making a sale on your behalf. Because of the imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices, it is possible that broker-dealers will not want to make a market in our common stock. This could prevent you from reselling your shares and may cause the value of your investment to decline.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) sales practice requirements may limit your ability to buy and sell our common stock, which could depress the price of our shares.

FINRA rules require broker-dealers to have reasonable grounds for believing that an investment is suitable for a customer before recommending that investment to the customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status and investment objectives, among other things. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability such speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares, and thereby depress our share price.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 that appear elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report, particularly in section Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this annual report.

Our audited consolidated financial statements are stated in United States dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Results of Operations

The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Revenue for the year ended March 31, 2021 was $61,413,520 versus $130,138,574 for the year ended March 31, 2020. The Company’s revenues were mainly derived from the sale of marine scrubber units and related services. During the year ended March 31, 2021, the Company was in various stages of engineering, delivery, and commissioning of 69 (2020 – 107) marine scrubber units which contributed to revenue of $60,945,254 (2020 – $129,688,156). The decrease in revenue was due to a major client deferring 32 marine scrubber units to 2021. 13 of these units have been cancelled. The remainder are still postponed with an option to either proceed or cancel. Engin contributed to revenue of $468,266 from providing design and engineering services for CSP contracts during the year ended March 31, 2021 (March 31, 2020 – $450,418).

The gross profit margin for the year ended March 31, 2021 was approximately 35% (2020 – 40%).

Due to the current Covid-19 pandemic and the lower than anticipated oil price spread, expenses for the year ended March 31, 2021, were $24,321,962 as compared to $41,529,313 for the year ended March 31, 2020 as the Company reduced its operations team and closed its Norway subsidiary. Management and technical consulting fees decreased significantly also due to the Norway office closure and lower sales. Management and technical consulting fees were comprised of fees paid to third parties for business development efforts, advisory services, as well as amounts paid to the directors of the Company. Advertising, office-based costs, alongside travel costs also decreased due to reduced business activities. Professional fees were mainly comprised of legal, audit, and accounting costs. During the last 12 months, there were more professional fees incurred due to increased complexity of business requirements and acquisition work. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased mainly due to property, equipment, and intangible assets recorded from Engin acquisition in December 2019. Additionally, the delivery of units resulted in a warranty provision being recorded for possible maintenance and claim issues within a prescribed period. For the year ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded a warranty expense of $1,228,092 (2020 - $1,630,541) related to the estimated expectation of warranty costs.

During the year ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a gain of $3,240,250 (¥22,000,000) related to the re-evaluation of the probability of the contingent consideration associated with the Engin acquisition. The reason was that the required conditions for the final payment were not met by the selling party.

During the year ended March 31, 2021, due to the Covid-19 pandemic conditions and the narrowing oil price spread, we decided to cease operations of our Norway subsidiary. As a result, a gain on disposition of the Norway subsidiary of $239,174 was recognized.

For the year ended March 31, 2021, our company had a net income of $1,181,078 ($0.03 per share) compared to net income of $10,381,420 ($0.23 per share) for the year ended March 31, 2020.

Our financial results for the years ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are summarized as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital Deficit

Cash Flows

As of March 31, 2021, we had $23,436,417 in cash, $41,228,286 in total current assets, $41,180,588 in total current liabilities, and working capital of $47,698, compared to a working capital deficit of $3,530,982 as at March 31, 2020. The Company’s working capital deficit improved as we closed Norway office and the contingent payable for Engin acquisition was removed due to payment condition not being met. The Company’s contract assets, contract liabilities and accruals changed significantly from period to period, depending on the status of equipment deliveries, customer receipts and payments to third party manufacturers.

During the year ended March 31, 2021, we received $3,402,719 from operating activities, whereas we received $23,449,250 on operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2020. Operating cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2021 primarily consist of deposits and instalments received from customers and our corresponding manufacturing outlays. During the year ended March 31, 2021, the company was in various stages of engineering, delivery, and commissioning of 69 (2020 – 107) marine scrubber units. We completed our revenue-generating activities on substantially all of these vessels in 2021.

During the year ended March 31, 2021, we used $1,559,728 in investing activities, whereas we used $4,247,690 in investing activities during the year ended March 31, 2020. Our investing activities for the year ended March 31, 2021 were primarily related to the acquisition of Innoergy, Richborough, and of office equipment.

During the year ended March 31, 2021, we received $1,750 related to financing activities, whereas we spent $614,546 from financing activities during the year ended March 31, 2020. Our financing activity for the year ended March 31, 2021 related to exercise of stock options.

Anticipated Cash Requirements

We do not anticipate requiring additional funds to fund our budgeted expenses over the next 12 months. However, if we do these funds may be raised through asset sales, equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares.

Our cash requirement estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of our business activities and our ability to raise capital from our shareholders or other sources.

We currently have office locations in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, China, Hong Kong and Australia. We have hired staff in various regions and rely heavily upon the use of contractors and consultants. Our general and administrative expenses for the year will consist primarily of technical consultants, management, salaries and wages, professional fees, transfer agent fees, bank and interest charges and general office expenses. The professional fees relate to matters such as contract review, business acquisitions, regulatory filings, patent maintenance, and general legal, accounting and auditing fees.

Should we require additional funding over the next twelve months, we would intend to raise new cash requirements from private placements, shareholder loans or possibly a registered public offering (either self-underwritten or through a broker-dealer). If we are unsuccessful in raising enough money through such efforts, we may review other financing possibilities such as bank loans. At this time, we do not have a commitment from any broker-dealer to provide us with financing. There is no assurance that any financing will be available to us or if available, on terms that will be acceptable to us.

As of March 31, 2021, we had $23,436,417 in cash on hand. Our realized and anticipated profits derived from sales of ENVI marine units plus anticipated sales of products and services in our new Batteries and Solar businesses are expected to fund our planned expenditure levels. After careful consideration we believe current operations, anticipated deliveries and expected profit from such deliveries to be sufficient to cover expected cash operating expenses over the next 12 months.

Going Concern

Our financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2021 have been prepared on a going concern basis.

The assessment of the liquidity and going concern requires the Company to make judgments about the existence of conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. This includes judgments about the Company's future activities and the timing thereof and estimates of future cash flows. Significant assumptions used in the Company's forecasted model of liquidity include forecasted sales, costs, and capital expenditures. Changes in the assumptions could have a material impact on the forecasted liquidity and going concern assessment.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Contractual Obligations

As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of property and equipment and intangible assets, contract assets and liabilities associated with revenue contracts in progress, contingent consideration on asset acquisition, warranty accruals, going concern, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Our company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by our company may differ materially and adversely from our company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and are comprised of patents, customer relationships, plant designs, and software licensing. The patents, which were acquired in 2013, are being amortized on a straight-line over the estimated useful life of 17 years. The other intangible assets, which were acquired in December 2019, are being amortized according to the following table. Intangible assets are reviewed annually for impairment.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

Our company reviews long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets with finite useful lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenue from the sale of emission control equipment and related services as well as providing design and engineering services for Concentrated Solar Power.

Irrespective of the line of business described above, revenue is recognized when control of products or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those promised products or services.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

As our contracts with customers include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost-plus margin.

In the case of settlement agreement with customers where no continued performance obligation is required, the Company recognizes revenue based on consideration settled according to the agreement.

Contracts signed with one customer has a significant financing component. The Company provides design, production, and installation services of scrubber units to this customer. 20% of the contract price is payable at least 6 calendar months prior to the dry dock date. The remaining 80% is payable in 24 equal monthly instalments starting at the end of the calendar month following the installation date on a vessel-by-vessel basis. As 80% of the contract price is payable after the last performance obligation towards the scrubber, a significant financing component is separated from revenue and interest income at 5.4% is recorded when payments are received from the customer.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivables consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, age, financial information that is publicly accessible and other currently available evidence.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, short term investments, accounts receivable, lease receivable, amounts due from and to related parties, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and operating lease liability. The recorded values of all financial instruments are at amortized cost which approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

Stock-based compensation

The Company records share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from employees and nonemployees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period. The majority of the Company’s awards vest upon issuance.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2018-07 - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, the accounting for employee and non-employee stock options is now aligned.

Contract Liabilities and Contract Assets

Contractual arrangements with customers for the sale of a scrubber unit generally provide for deposits and instalments through the procurement and design phases of equipment manufacturing. Amounts received from customers, which are not yet recorded as revenues under the Company’s revenue recognition policy are presented as contract liabilities.

Similarly, contractual arrangements with suppliers and manufacturers normally involved with the manufacturing of scrubber units may require advances and deposits at various stages of the manufacturing process. Payments to our manufacturing partners are recorded as contract assets until the equipment is manufactured to specifications and accepted by the customer.

The Company presents the contract liabilities and contract assets on its balance sheet when one of the parties to the revenue contract has performed before the other.

Warranty Provision

The Company reserves a 2% warranty provision on the completion of a contract following the commissioning of marine scrubbers, there being a number of milestone-based stage payments. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold and geography of sale. The Company’s product warranties generally start from the delivery date and continue for up to twelve to twenty-four months. The Company provides warranties to customers for the design, materials, and installation of scrubber units. The Company has a back-to-back manufacturing guarantee from its major supplier, which covers materials, production, and installation. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty obligation include product failure rates, anticipated hours of product operations and costs of repair or replacement in correcting product failures. These factors are estimates that may change based on new information that becomes available each period. Similarly, the Company also accrues the estimated costs to address reliability repairs on products no longer in warranty when, in the Company’s judgment, and in accordance with a specific plan developed by the Company, it is prudent to provide such repairs. The Company intends to assess the adequacy of recorded warranty liabilities quarterly and adjusts the liability as necessary.

Lease 

Leases classified as operating leases, where the Company is the lessee, are recorded as lease liabilities based on the present value of minimum lease payments over the lease term, discounted using the lessor’s rate implicit in the lease for each individual lease arrangement or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, if the lessor’s implicit rate is not readily determinable. Corresponding right-of-use assets are recognized consisting of the lease liabilities, initial direct costs and any lease incentive payments. Lease liabilities are drawn down as lease payments are made and right-of-use assets are depreciated over the term of the lease. Operating lease expenses are recognized over the term of the lease, consisting of interest accrued on the lease liability and depreciation of the right-of-use asset.

PACIFIC GREEN TECHNOLOGIES INC.

Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2021

(Expressed in US dollars)

Report  of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors

Pacific Green Technologies Inc.:

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pacific Green Technologies Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgment. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Going Concern Assessment

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. In making this assessment, the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the consolidated financial statements are issued. This included assessment of liquidity, judgments about the Company’s future activities including the estimates of future cash flows. The Company concluded that there are no known or currently foreseeable conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We identified the assessment of the existence of conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as a critical audit matter. The evaluation of the Company’s estimate of cash flows used in its forecasted model of liquidity for at least 12 months beyond the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements involved a high degree of subjective auditor judgment due to uncertainty in the estimate of cash flows.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design of certain internal controls related to the Company’s assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern. This included a control related to determination of significant assumptions used in the forecasted model of liquidity, including forecast sales and forecast costs. We assessed the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used in the Company’s forecasted model of liquidity by comparing the forecasted cash flows to actual results, underlying agreements and documentation. We compared the Company’s historical forecasted cash flows to actual results to assess the Company’s ability to accurately forecast. We performed sensitivity analyses to assess the impact of changes in the significant assumptions included in the Company’s forecasted model of liquidity. We assessed the Company’s forecasted model of liquidity in the context of other audit evidence obtained during the audit to determine whether it supported or contradicted the conclusions reached by the Company.

Pacific Green Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware, USA on March 10, 1994. The Company is in the business of acquiring, developing, and marketing environmental technologies, with a focus on emission control technologies. On December 20, 2019, the Company acquired Shanghai Engin Digital Technology Co. Ltd., a company incorporated and registered in China (“Engin”). Engin is a solar design, development, and engineering company (Note 7). On June 19, 2020, Engin was changed to Pacific Green Technologies (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. On October 19, 2020, the Company acquired Innoergy Limited (“Innoergy”). Innoergy is a designer of battery energy storage systems and registered in the United Kingdom (Note 8). In connection with the acquisition, Innoergy adopted the name Pacific Green Innoergy Technologies Limited. On March 18, 2021, the Company acquired Richborough Energy Park Ltd. (“Richborough”), a company in the business of battery energy storage systems and registered in the United Kingdom (Note 9).

In connection with preparing consolidated financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, the Company is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt exists when conditions and events, considered in aggregate, indicate that it is probable that a company will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans and actions that have not been fully implemented as of the date that the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both: (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued; and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

Generally, to be considered probable of being effectively implemented, the plans must have been approved before the date that the financial statements are issued.

Management’s evaluation has concluded that there are no known or currently foreseeable conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these consolidated financial statements are issued. These consolidated financial statements have therefore been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern.

The assessment of the liquidity and going concern requires the Company to make judgments about the existence of conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. This includes judgments about the Company's future activities and the timing thereof and estimates of future cash flows. Significant assumptions used in the Company's forecasted model of liquidity include forecasted sales, costs, and capital expenditures. Changes in the assumptions could have a material impact on the forecasted liquidity and going concern assessment.

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of property and equipment and intangible assets, contract assets and liabilities associated with revenue contracts in progress, contingent consideration on asset acquisition, warranty accruals, going concern, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Our company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by our company may differ materially and adversely from our company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded at the following annual rates, net of any residual value determined.

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and are comprised of patents, customer relationships, plant designs, and software licensing. The patents, which were acquired in 2013, are being amortized on a straight-line over the estimated useful life of 17 years. The other intangible assets, which were acquired in December 2019, are being amortized according to the following table. Intangible assets are reviewed annually for impairment.

Our company reviews long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets with finite useful lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, short term investments, accounts receivable, lease receivable, amounts due from and to related parties, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and operating lease liability. The recorded values of all financial instruments are at amortized cost which approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

The Company derives revenue from the sale of emission control equipment and related services as well as providing design and engineering services for Concentrated Solar Power.

Irrespective of the line of business described above, revenue is recognized when control of products or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those promised products or services.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

As our contracts with customers include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost-plus margin.

In the case of settlement agreement with customers where no continued performance obligation is required, the Company recognizes revenue based on consideration settled according to the agreement.

Contracts signed with one customer has a significant financing component. The Company provides design, production, and installation services of scrubber units to this customer. 20% of the contract price is payable at least 6 calendar months prior to the dry dock date. The remaining 80% is payable in 24 equal monthly instalments starting at the end of the calendar month following the installation date on a vessel-by-vessel basis. As 80% of the contract price is payable after the last performance obligation towards the scrubber, a significant financing component is separated from revenue and interest income at 5.4% is recorded when payments are received from the customer.

Contractual arrangements with customers for the sale of a scrubber unit generally provide for deposits and instalments through the procurement and design phases of equipment manufacturing. Amounts received from customers, which are not yet recorded as revenues under the Company’s revenue recognition policy are presented as contract liabilities.

Similarly, contractual arrangements with suppliers and manufacturers normally involved with the manufacturing of scrubber units may require advances and deposits at various stages of the manufacturing process. Payments to our manufacturing partners are recorded as contract assets until the equipment is manufactured to specifications and accepted by the customer.

The Company presents the contract liabilities and contract assets on its balance sheet when one of the parties to the revenue contract has performed before the other.

The Company reserves a 2% warranty provision on the completion of a contract following the commissioning of marine scrubbers, there being a number of milestone-based stage payments. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold and geography of sale. The Company’s product warranties generally start from the delivery date and continue for up to twelve to twenty-four months. The Company provides warranties to customers for the design, materials, and installation of scrubber units. The Company has a back-to-back manufacturing guarantee from its major supplier, which covers materials, production, and installation. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty obligation include product failure rates, anticipated hours of product operations and costs of repair or replacement in correcting product failures. These factors are estimates that may change based on new information that becomes available each period. Similarly, the Company also accrues the estimated costs to address reliability repairs on products no longer in warranty when, in the Company’s judgment, and in accordance with a specific plan developed by the Company, it is prudent to provide such repairs. The Company intends to assess the adequacy of recorded warranty liabilities quarterly and adjusts the liability as necessary.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The asset and liability method provides that deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

The Company provides for interest and potential administrative penalties where management has assessed that the probability of assessment is greater than 50%. Interest and penalties assessed or expected to be assessed by tax authorities are included in tax expense for the period.

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currencies of PGTA, PGTU, PGMG, PGTC, PGTIL, PGMT US, PGST, PGEP, PGEST, PGT Can, and PGN are United States dollar. The functional currency of ENGIN and GNPE are Chinese Yuan. PGESU, Innoergy, and Richborough use the United Kingdom Pound as their functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets, liabilities, and items recorded in income arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.

The accounts of ENGIN, GNPE, PGESU, Innoergy, and Richborough are translated to United States dollars using the current rate method. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at the period end exchange rate while revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Related exchange gains and losses are included in a separate component of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income.

Research and development costs are charged as operating expenses as incurred.

The Company records share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from employees and nonemployees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period. The majority of the Company’s awards vest upon issuance.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2018-07 - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, the accounting for employee and non-employee stock options is now aligned.

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential options and warrants outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible debenture using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As at March 31, 2021, the Company had 2,890,000 (2020 – nil) anti-dilutive shares outstanding.

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and items in other comprehensive income (loss) that are excluded from net income or loss. As at March 31, 2021 and 2020, other comprehensive income (loss) includes cumulative translation adjustments for changes in foreign currency exchange rates during the period.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The ASU sets forth a “current expected credit loss” (CECL) model which requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures. As a smaller reporting company, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after January 1, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this ASU on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its consolidated financial statements and management does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

On December 20, 2019, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of Shanghai Engin Digital Technology Co. Ltd., a solar design, development and engineering company and its subsidiary. Engin’s expertise in solar technologies provides the Company another green technology to market and develop internationally alongside our manufacturing. The acquisition was concluded concurrently with two groups. The first purchase of the 75% interest was acquired for consideration of $5,864,234 (¥41,000,000) upon signing (paid), plus a further $2,145,002 (¥15,000,000) due by March 20, 2020 (paid) and a final conditional payment of $2,860,002 (¥20,000,000) (not paid). The remaining 25% interest was acquired for consideration of 125,000 new shares of the Company (issued after year end), plus a further conditional $286,000 (¥2,000,000) (not paid). The required conditions for the final payment were not met by the selling party. As a result, the company derecognized the liability and recorded a gain of $3,240,250 (¥22,000,000). On June 19, 2020, Engin’s name was changed to Pacific Green Technologies (Shanghai) Co. Ltd.

Total purchase consideration was estimated at $11,052,307, inclusive of the fair value of the conditional payments, which were considered probable at the acquisition date. The 125,000 shares in the Company have been estimated to have a fair value of $368,750 or $2.95 per share. This share price is determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Company’s common shares at the date of acquisition.

The results of operations of the acquired business and the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements with effect from the date of the acquisition. The purchase consideration has been applied to cash of $2,063,358, other net working capital of Engin of $1,024,461, property and equipment of $948,662, intangible assets of $4,124,007, and cumulative translation adjustment of $484,128. The residual value of consideration after applying it to the carrying values of assets and liabilities acquired and fair value adjustments, resulted in a goodwill allocation of $3,744,697.

On October 19, 2020, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of a 100% interest in Innoergy Limited and immediately changed its name to Pacific Green Innoergy Technologies Limited. Innoergy is a designer of battery energy storage systems registered in the United Kingdom. The acquisition marks the Company’s entry into the battery energy storage system market in conjunction with its joint venture partner, PowerChina SPEM.

In consideration of all the issued and outstanding securities of Innoergy, the Company has issued to the selling shareholders of Innoergy an aggregate of 525,000 common shares of the Company. The Company paid $32,490 (£25,000) to a selling shareholder on completion of the transaction and will pay an equal amount when Innoergy achieves battery storage sales equivalent to 50 megawatts. The common shares of the Company issued to the sellers are subject to a sales volume restriction of 65,625 shares per calendar quarter. As a further condition of the acquisition, Pacific Green will make available to Innoergy a working capital credit facility of approximately $455,000 (£350,000) (at an interest rate of eight percent (8%) above the Bank of England base rate per annum), which will be due on demand and secured by a floating charge and debenture against the assets of Innoergy.

Total purchase consideration is estimated at $633,911, inclusive of the fair value of the conditional payments, which were considered 75% probable at the acquisition date. Total purchase consideration also includes 525,000 shares with fair value of $577,500 or $1.10 per share. This share price is determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Company’s common shares at the date of acquisition. The results of operations of the acquired business and the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements with effect from the date of the acquisition. The purchase consideration has been applied to cash of $146,503, other net working capital of $2,758, property and equipment of $540, and loan payable of $64,981.

The Company accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable group of similar identifiable assets. Accordingly, the consideration was allocated on a relative fair value basis to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Total purchase consideration was estimated at $2,166,452, inclusive of the fair value of the conditional payments, which were considered probable at the acquisition date.
