20. Financial instruments

As part of its operations, the Company carries a number of financial instruments. It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments except as otherwise disclosed. The Company's overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of the financial market and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company's financial performance. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge these risks.

Foreign currency risk

The Company enters into transactions denominated in US dollars for which the related revenues, expenses, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities balances are subject to exchange rate fluctuations.

As at March 31, 2021 the following items are denominated in US dollars:

March 31, 2021

Cash 49,303 1,366,627

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (4,406,330 ) (252,463 )
Total (1,192,106 ) 1,735,981

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates.

20. Financial instruments (continued)

Sensitivity analysis

At March 31, 2021, if the US Dollar changes by 10% against the Canadian dollar with all other variables held constant, the impact on pre-tax gain or loss for the year ended March 31, 2021 would have been ($119,000) (December 31, 2020 - $174,000).

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The maximum credit risk to which the Company is exposed as at March 31, 2021 represents the carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and deposits.

Credit concentration

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, three customers accounted for 91% (March 31, 2020 - two customers for 78%) of revenues from operations.

Three months ended March 31, 2021 Three months ended March 31, 2020
Revenues % of total revenues Revenues % of total revenues
$ % $ %
Customer 1 625,086 10 474,432 66
Customer 2 2,371,403 38 87,945 12
Customer 3 2,733,107 43 - -
Total 5,729,596 91 562,377 78

Two customers accounted for 93% (December 31, 2020 - two customers for 69%) of trade accounts receivable with amounts owing to the Company of $3,160,252 (2020 - $1,211,177), representing the Company's major credit risk exposure. Credit concentration is determined based on customers representing 10% or more of total revenues and/or total accounts receivable. The Company believes that there is no unusual exposure associated with the collection of these receivables. The Company manages its credit risk by performing credit assessments of its customers and provides allowances for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable. The Company does not generally require collateral or other security from customers on accounts receivable.

Fair value of financial instruments

Financial instruments are comprised of cash, accounts receivable, investments, deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, term loans, long-term debt and convertible debentures. There are three levels of fair value that reflect the significance of inputs used in determining fair values of financial instruments:

Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

19

PyroGenesis Canada Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements

For the periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

(unaudited)

20. Financial instruments (continued)

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Investments in BGF shares are valued as at March 31, 2021 at quoted market prices and are classified as Level 1. Investments in BGF shares were valued as at December 31, 2018 based on a valuation technique that estimates a business' value based on a recent round of financing and were classified as Level 3.

Investments in HPQ shares are valued at quoted market prices and are classified as Level 1.

Investments in HPQ warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model and are classified as Level 3.

Fair value of financial instruments - continued

The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and term loans approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term maturities.

The fair value of the long-term debt approximates their carrying amounts due to their recent issuance.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument might be adversely affected by a change in interest rates. Changes in market interest rates may have an effect on the cash flows associated with some financial assets and liabilities, known as cash flow risk, and on the fair value of other financial assets or liabilities, known as price risk, and on the fair value of investments or liabilities, known as price risks. The Company is exposed to a risk of fair value on the term loans and convertible debentures as those financial instruments bear interest at fixed rates.

Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market price (other than those arising from foreign currency risk and interest risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuers or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market. The most significant exposure to the price risk for the Company arises from its investments in shares of public companies quoted on the TSXV Exchange. If equity prices had increased or decreased by 25% as at March 31, 2021, with all other variables held constant, the Company's investments would have increased or decreased respectively, by approximately $10,679,000 (December 31, 2020 - $11,874,375).

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivery of cash or another financial asset. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on management's ability to raise required funding through future

equity and / or debt issuances and to generate positive cash flows from operations (see note 1 (b)). The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.

21. Contingent liabilities

The Company is currently a party to various legal proceedings and a tax authorities' review. If management believes that a loss arising from these matters is probable and can reasonably be estimated, that amount of the loss is recorded. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Based on currently available information, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or overall trends in results of operations.

The Company had received a government grant in prior years of approximately $800,000 to assist with the development of a new system of advanced waste treatment systems technology. The grant is potentially repayable at the rate of 3% of any consideration received as a result of the project, for which funding has been received, to a maximum of the actual grant received. This repayment provision will remain in effect until May 30, 2024. The Company abandoned the project in 2011 and accordingly, no amount is expected to be repaid.

22. Capital management

The Company's objectives in managing capital are:

a) To ensure sufficient liquidity to support its current operations and execute its business plan; and
b) To provide adequate return to the shareholders

The Company's primary objectives when managing capital is to ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

The Company currently funds these requirements from cash flows from operations and with financing arrangements with third parties and shareholders. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

The Company monitors its working capital in order to meet its financial obligations. For the three months ending March 31, 2021, the Company's working capital was $27,867,016 (December 31, 2020 - $13,797,579).

The management of capital includes shareholders' equity for a total amount of $72,122,309 (December 31, 2020 - $59,423,106) and debt of $112,612 (December 31, 2020 - $112,707).

Although there were no significant changes in the Company's approach during fiscal 2020, the Company was able to retire its term loans and convert its convertible debentures to common shares. In order to maintain or adjust capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, sell portions of its strategic investment and periodically purchase its own shares on the open market.

23. Segment information

The Company operates in one segment, based on financial information that is available and evaluated by the Company's Board of Directors.

The Company's head office is located in Montreal, Quebec. The operation of the Company is located in one geographic area: Canada. The following is a summary of the Company's geographic information:

24. Subsequent events

On April 19, 2021, the Company announce that its cutting edge Additive Manufacturing ('AM') NexGen™ Powder production line, incorporating all the improvements previously announced (increased production rate, lower CAPEX, lower OPEX, narrower particle size distribution) is now in place and producing powders. PyroGenesis' game-changing NexGen™ Plasma Atomization System, with its production rate exceeding 25kg/h, has shattered all published plasma-atomized production rates for titanium known to management. As previously disclosed, there are several major top-tier aerospace companies, and OEMs, awaiting powders from PyroGenesis' new, state of the art, NexGen™ production line. The Company will, over the next several weeks, perform a number of test-runs to confirm batch to batch consistency. The Company now expects to start delivering powders before the end of Q2 2021.

On April 20, 2021, the Company announced the signing of a qualification agreement (the 'Agreement') with a premier global aerospace company (the 'Client') for the production of metal powders. Under this Agreement, the Client will perform a standard qualification process typically required before a company can become an approved supplier. The process will, amongst other things, evaluate the Company's manufacturing methods, test samples of powder for batch-to-batch consistency and determine mechanical and chemical properties. Subsequently, larger volumes of powder will be used to print test coupons to further evaluate mechanical and chemical properties. It is expected that testing with real parts under real time conditions would be in order before final acceptance. Upon passing all acceptance tests, the process will be locked down specifically for the Client, with no additional modifications permitted. Upon successful completion of the testing, PyroGenesis would expect to receive formal acceptance as an approved supplier. The qualification process has now formally commenced, and the first powder samples are expected to be delivered within the next several weeks.

On April 27, 2021, the Company announced that it had signed a binding Letter of Intent ('LOI'), which outlines the terms and conditions pursuant to which PyroGenesis would acquire AirScience Technologies Inc ('AST') for $4.8MM (the 'Purchase Price'). The LOI is binding on AST, but it is only binding on PyroGenesis if in its sole opinion, it is satisfied with the final due diligence currently in progress. The option to satisfy the Purchase Price in shares or cash is at the sole discretion of the buyer, and will only be made on, or about, final closing. AST is a Montreal-based company that designs and builds (i) gas upgrading systems (specifically from biogas to renewable natural gas, or 'RNG'), (ii) Pyrolysis-Gas Purification, (iii)

Between April 30, 2021 and May 4, 2021, the Company redeemed 196,684 of its common shares for an amount of $1,383,240.

Between April 1, 2021 and May 14, 2021, the Company issued 1,743,348 common shares upon the exercise of 1,743,348 warrants for total proceeds of $3,965,116. The Company also issued 375,250 common shares upon exercise of 375,250 stock options for total proceeds of $257,883.

The global pandemic due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is a situation that is constantly evolving, and the measures put in place are having multiple impacts on provincial, national and global economies. The overall effect of these events on the Company and its operations is too uncertain to be estimated at this time. The impacts will be accounted for when they are known and may be assessed.
