The following analysis provides information about the Corporation's risk exposure and concentration as of March 31, 2026 (a) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk that the Corporation will incur a loss because a customer fails to meet an obligation. The Corporation is exposed to this risk for financial instruments classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost by granting credit to customers. The Corporation's maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of these financial assets recognized at the reporting date, $273,694 (2025 - $265,698) which is summarized below:

Accounts receivable

$ 273,694

$ 265,698

The Corporation has mitigated its exposure to this risk through the limited extension of credit and its contractual relationships with its business partners. The Corporation's management considers that an allowance of $124,021 (2025 - $38,204) is required for the above receivables to be fairly stated. The receivables are shown net of the allowance. Some of the unimpaired financial assets measured at amortized costs are past due as at the reporting date. The aging of unimpaired assets is as follows:

$214,079 430 51,189 $265,698

$ 197,199 10,947 65,548 $273,694

0 - 30 days 31 - 60 days 61 + days

With respect to financial assets measured at amortized cost, the Corporation is not exposed to any significant credit risk exposure to any single supplier. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers in various industries and geographical areas. Management considers the credit quality of trade receivables to be good. (b) Market risk Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency rate risk, interest rate risk and other price risk. The Corporation's market risk management focuses on the unpredictability of financial and economic markets and seeks to minimize potential effects on the Corporation's financial performance. The Corporation's financial instruments are not subject to significant price risk or currency risk. (c) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation would be unable to meet its obligations. The Corporation manages liquidity needs by monitoring scheduled debt servicing payments for long term financial liabilities as well as cash inflows and outflows due in day-to-day business. The data used for analyzing these cash flows is consistent with that used in the contractual maturity analysis below. Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on the basis of a rolling 30 day outlook. Net cash requirements are compared to available borrowing facilities in order to determine any surplus or shortfall. (continues)
