REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS 

Dear fellow shareholders, employees, and stakeholders: 

2022 is definitely one for our record book. 

Market demand remained strong throughout the  year. Our sales of $226 million  were up 18.8% over 
2021. 

Foreign  exchange  had  a  favourable  impact  in  2022.  2.2%  of  the  sales  growth  came  from  foreign 
exchange. 

Due to market conditions we did not have to struggle to put price increases through to meet and offset 
our rising costs. 

The increase in our production output against our fixed cost base provided a positive impact to our gross 
profit levels. Gross profit level of 31.7% is up from 29.5% achieved in 2021. 

 We have worked hard to replenish our inventories. As sales took off in 2021 we had drawn down our 
inventories to meet the demand. We added resources and increased our output levels to meet the higher 
demand.  We are now in a much better position to service our customers. 

We  continue  to  build  long  term  security  and  success  for  all  our  associates  and  once  again  want  to 
express our appreciation for everyone’s involvement in the year’s success. 

Sincerely, 

Robert F. Hammond

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

COMPANY PROFILE 

Hammond  Manufacturing  Company  Limited  manufactures  electronic  and  electrical  enclosures,  outlet 
strips  and  electronic  transformers  that  are  used  by  manufacturers  of  a  wide  range  of  electronic  and 
electrical products. Products are sold directly to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and through 
a global network of distributors and agents. 

Facilities are situated in Canada, the United States of America (US), the United Kingdom (UK), Taiwan, 
the  Netherlands  and  Australia,  with  agents  and  distributors  located  worldwide.  The  Company  also 
maintains  a  40%  ownership  share  of  RITEC  Enclosures  Inc.  (RITEC)  located  in  Taiwan.  RITEC 
produces a line of small cases for sale through the Hammond Manufacturing Company’s sales channels 
and also manages sourcing of die cast and plastic enclosures.  

OPERATIONS 

In 2020 we saw sales decline as the COVID-19 pandemic took hold at the end  of the first quarter of 
2020.  Business  levels  had  returned  to  pre-COVID  levels  in  the  last  quarter  of  2020.  Our  markets 
continued to see significant growth throughout 2021. Sales levels remained strong in 2022. We have 
been adding employees since early 2021 to meet the increase in sales. Hourly staff levels increased by 
almost 35% in 2021 and another 6.7% in 2022. This does create a challenge of onboarding and training 
new employees. The team has worked hard to do this with as little disruption as possible. We are also 
starting to battle physical constraints at some of our operations. The teams in these facilities are working 
hard to streamline any areas we can in order to squeeze out all the available capacity. 

This year production has caught up with demand and has been replenishing our stock inventory at the 
warehouse.  

In July of 2021 the Company announced its plans to expand operations with the addition of a 96,000 
square foot facility. This is a brand-new build and currently is expected to be operational in the second 
quarter of 2023. This facility will house a paint line and metal fabrication.  The projected budget for the 
facility and equipment is approximately $28 million (this is up from the original project of $24 million).  

Commencing in 2020, the Company applied for the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS). In 
2020  we  benefited  from  $2,308,000  in  federal  assistance  under  this  program.  In  2021  the  Company 
received an additional $607,000 of assistance in the first quarter of the year. This year we did not receive 
any assistance.

FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS 

NET PRODUCT SALES 

Net product sales for the three months ended December 31, 2022 were $56,847,000, flat compared to 
net  product  sales  of  $56,848,000  in  the  third  quarter  of  2022.  All  our  markets  were  down  in  local 
currencies  over  the  prior  quarter  but  the  gain  from  USD  foreign  exchange  offset  this  drop.  In  local 
currencies the Canadian market was down 7.0% while the US market was down about 3.8%. Our UK & 
European market was down 16.7%. This is a normal cycle for this market as in the last two weeks of the 
year shipping and businesses shut down for the holidays. We are attributing lower sales in this quarter 
compared  to  the  prior  quarter  to  the  impact  of  the  yearend  holidays  and  customers  deferring  taking 
inventory for a better balance sheet presentation for those with a December 31 year end. 

Net product sales for the current quarter were up 2.7% compared to net product sales of $55,340,000 
for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Comparatively in local currencies, Canada was down 
10.2% and the UK & European markets were down 8.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. The 
US market was up compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 in USD by 3.0%. Foreign exchange from the 
USD provided a lift of $1,370,000 while the impact of the British pound pulled sales down by $192,000. 

GROSS PROFIT 

Gross profit of $20,108,000 for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 35.4% of net sales compared to 31.2% in 
the third quarter of 2022. If we adjust for the impact of foreign exchange this quarters gross margin is 
closer to 34.0% compared to the 31.2% in the prior quarter. Earlier price increases are now impacting

our gross margins. These price increases were in anticipation of our annual labor cost increases that 
went through in November and January so we will lose some of this upside in the first quarter of 2023.  

When we compare gross profit levels between the comparative fourth quarter of 2021 and 2022 we can 
see a significant increase from 28.0% to 35.4%. The impact of foreign exchange compared to levels in 
the fourth quarter of 2021 helped increase margin levels by approximately 1.4%. In the fourth quarter of 
2021 we were experiencing increase in materials costs that we had not been able to offset with price 
increases and this lead to the lower margins seen in that quarter. Conversely this quarter we have been 
able  to  put  through  price  increases  for  anticipated  labour  and  material  cost  increase  that  are  going 
through at the end of the fourth quarter and the first quarter of 2023. 

SELLING AND DISTRIBUTION, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES AND 
LOSS ON DISPOSAL OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT 

Fourth  quarter  selling  and  distribution,  general  and  administrative  expenses  and  gain  /  loss  on  the 
disposal of property plant and equipment of $13,127,000 was 23.1% of net product sales for the three 
months ended December 31, 2022. This compared with spending of $12,775,000 in the previous quarter 
that was 22.5% of net sales. The fourth quarter of 2021 saw spending levels of $12,230,000 which was 
22.1% of net sales. 

Selling and distribution spending in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $11,766,000 (20.7% of net product 
sales) up from 19.3% of sales in the third quarter of 2022. Marketing, travel and entertainment expenses 
were  up over the previous quarter by $236,000  as our post-Covid  external engagement continues to 
increase.  

Selling and distribution spending in the fourth quarter of 2021 was $10,657,000 (19.3% of net product 
sales).  This  quarter  selling  expenses  such  as  travel  and  marketing  increased  over  2021  by  close  to 
$283,000.  As  noted  earlier  our  post-Covid  external  engagement  continues  to  increase.  Freight  and 
distribution expenses is the other main driver of the expense increase up $316,000. 

General and administrative expenses of $1,358,000 (2.4% of net product sales) in the fourth quarter is 
down 12.8% over the previous quarter’s spending of $1,558,000 (2.7% of net product sales). This quarter 
we recognized a credit of $112,500 to our legal expenses as we settled a legal suit this quarter and were 
awarded $112,500 toward the defense of the suit.  

In the fourth quarter of 2021 general and administrative expenses were $1,573,000 (2.8% of net product 
sales). As noted above we settled a legal suit this quarter and were award $112,500 toward the defense 
of the suit. Bad debt allowance expenses are down $128,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. In 
the fourth quarter of 2021 we had increased our reserve for bad debts as sales had begun to increase.   

INCOME FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES 

This quarter income from operating activities was $6,981,000 (12.3% of net product sales).  This is up 
from the prior quarter of $4,951,000 (8.7% of net product sales) and up from the 2021 fourth quarter 
amount of $3,247,000 (5.9% of net product sales).   

INTEREST 

Fourth  quarter  interest  expense  on  bank  indebtedness  and  loans  was  $454,000  compared  to  an 
expense of $219,000 for the fourth quarter 2021.The comparative loan base has grown throughout the 
year and is up just over $14.6 million from the end on 2021 to the end of 2022.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONAL IMPACT 

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recognized a gain on transactional foreign exchange of 
$329,000  compared  to  a  loss  of  $14,000  in  the  three  months  ended  December  31,  2021.  The 
intercompany balance payable to our US entity accounts is a big driver of this movement. There is an 
offset to the intercompany impact found in the foreign exchange translation of foreign operations as the 
offsetting US receivable is due from the Canadian entity and is part of the translational adjustment of 
the US entities balance sheet on consolidation. 

INCOME TAX EXPENSE 

Fourth quarter taxes of $1,633,000 is 24.6% of income before taxes which brings the overall years tax 
rate to 25.1% of income before taxes.   

NET INCOME FOR THE PERIOD 

Net  income  of  $4,999,000  (8.8%  return  on  net  product  sales)  was  recognized  for  the  fourth  quarter 
ended December 31, 2022. This is up from a net return of $2,504,000 (4.4% return on net product sales) 
in  the  previous  quarter  and  up  from  the  net  return  of  $2,238,000  (4.0%  return  on  net  product  sales) 
recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021. 

FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN OPERATIONS 

The  translation  adjustment  for  the  fourth  quarter  of  2022  was  a  loss  of  $116,000  compared  to  a 
translation loss of $20,000 in the fourth quarter of 2021. 

TOTAL COMPREHENSIVE INCOME 

Comprehensive income for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022 was $4,883,000 (8.6% of net 
product  sales)  up  from  the  3  months  ended  December  31,  2021  of  $2,218,000  (4.0%  of  net  product 
sales)  and  up  from  the  previous  quarter’s  total  comprehensive  income  of  $3,977,000  (7.0%  of  net 
product sales). 

FULL YEAR RESULTS 

NET PRODUCT SALES 

Net  product  sales  of  $225,922,000  in  2022  were  up  18.8%  compared  to  net  sales  of  $190,128,000 
reported  in  2021.  Foreign  exchange  had  a  positive  impact  on  the  year  over  year  reporting  by 
approximately  $4,263,000,  2.2% of  the sales increase. Our  Canadian market is up  10.6% over 2021 
while the US market is up 23.2% when measured in USD. Due to the impact of foreign exchange the 
US sales are up 28.3% when measured in CAD. The rest of the world activity is down approximately 
5.9%. This segment is mostly made up of our UK & European sales. In this case foreign exchange has 
had a negative impact. In local currencies these markets were actually flat year over year.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

GROSS PROFIT 

In 2022, gross profit was $71,631,000 or 31.7% of net product sales compared to $56,001,000 or 29.5% 
achieved in 2021. If we remove the impact of CEWS in 2021 of $485,000 the gross profit level would 
have been closer to 29.2%. If we remove the foreign exchange impact on 2022, gross margin would be 
closer to 30.4% which is still up over the adjusted 29.2%. Price increases have managed to offset cost 
increases we have seen from our vendors throughout the year and have some positive impact on our 
gross margin levels. Strong activity levels driven by sales levels have also had a positive impact on our 
absorption levels against our fixed costs. 

Spending related to COVID safety measures this year is approximately $278,000 (2021- $353,000). 

SELLING  AND  DISTRIBUTION,  GENERAL  AND  ADMINISTRATIVE,  AND  LOSS  ON 
DISPOSAL OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT 

Selling and distribution, general and administrative including the net impact of the disposal of property, 
plant and equipment of $52,189,000 (23.1% of net product sales) was up 18.0% compared to the 2021 
spend  of  $44,228,000  (23.3%  of  net  product  sales).  Year  over  year  sales  increase  of  18.8%  and 
associated variable costs that go with this is the driver of the cost increases. Receipt of CEWS provided 
a cost reduction of $122,000 in 2021 and was not repeated in 2022. Foreign exchange had the impact 
of increasing the reported expense levels in 2022 compared to 2021 by approximately $607,000.  

Selling and distribution expenses of $46,054,000  increased $7,594,000  or 19.7% compared to 2021. 
Decreases  in  CEWS  assistance  accounts  for  $103,000  of  this  increase.  Foreign  exchange  had  the 
impact of increasing comparative costs by  $595,000. Shipping and  warehouse  costs as a function of 
sales  went  from  8.1%  of  sales  in  2021  to  8.8%  of  sales  in  2022.  Freight  expenses  have  increased 
disproportionately to other expenses. In prior year with the restrictions of COVID we saw our marketing 
and advertising expenses decline. In 2022 external interactions of our sales group increased significantly 
and we saw the related expenses in these areas return to pre-COVID levels. We did see a savings of 
approximately $277,000 on insurance as a result of putting in a sprinkler system in our warehouse in 
2021. 

Our general and administrative expenses of $6,120,000 were up $337,000 or 5.8% compared to 2021 
spending levels of $5,783,000. Decreases in CEWS assistance accounts for $19,000 of this increase. 
Foreign exchange had the impact of increasing comparative costs by $12,000. Severances were down 
$191,000, legal and professional fees were down $179,000 as a suit against the company was closed 
out in 2022 and we were awarded $112,500 toward our defense costs. Bank charges are up $186,000 
which  is  driven  by  one  of  our  large  customers  moving  to  credit  card  payment  and  this  is  driving  the 
associated fees.  Bad debt expenses were up $60,000 as we increased our reserve as a function of the 
increase in our accounts receivable levels. 

This year we saw a net loss of $15,000 on the disposal of property, plant and equipment. This compares 
to a net gain on disposals of $15,000 recognized in 2021. 

INCOME FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES 

Overall, 2022 income from operating activities was $19,442,000 (8.6% of net product sales) which is up 
compared to 2021 earnings of $11,773,000 (6.2% of net product sales).

FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRANSACTIONAL IMPACT 

A $1,270,000 foreign exchange transactional loss was reported in 2022, compared to a transactional 
loss of $14,000  in 2021. The Canadian dollar strengthened against the US dollar throughout 2021. It 
opened at $1.00 USD to $1.273 CAD and rose to $1.00 USD to $1.229 level in the first half of 2021 and 
slowly worked its way back down and closed the year at $1.00 USD to $1.268 CAD. In 2022 the trend 
reversed and the Canadian dollar weakened against the US dollar throughout 2022 and closed the year 
at $1.00 US dollar to $1.354 CAD.  

A large portion of the loss seen in 2022 is from our intercompany receivable. Our Canadian entity has a 
payable to our US entity in US dollars. This is offset in translational gains of other foreign operations. 

INCOME TAX EXPENSE 

2022 tax expenses of $4,032,000 were 25.1% of income before income tax. This compares to a 2021 
tax expense of $2,459,000 which was 24.2% of income before income tax.

Net  income  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022  was  $12,003,000  (5.3%  of  net  product  sales) 
compared to the prior year net income of $7,702,000 (4.1% of net product sales). 

FOREIGN EXCHANGE TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN OPERATIONS 

During 2022 a gain of $1,530,000 on translational foreign exchange was recorded compared to a loss 
of $99,000 in 2021. The weakening of the Canadian dollar caused an increase in the measurement of 
our financial assets and liabilities in our foreign entities. As noted earlier a large part of the 2022 gain is 
offset by the loss on foreign exchange transactional impact of intercompany loans.  

TOTAL COMPREHENSIVE INCOME 

Comprehensive  income  for  2022  was  $13,533,000  (6.0%  of  net  product  sales)  this  compared  to 
comprehensive income of $7,603,000 (4.0% of net product sales) in 2021.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY 

Net  cash  generated  in  operating  activities  for  2022  was  $4,824,000  (net  cash  generated  in  2021  - 
$14,262,000). Cash flows from financing activities generated $11,091,000 (2021 – financing activities 
used $1,298,000). Net cash used in investing activities was $20,158,000 (2021 - $11,544,000). 

Trade and other receivables of $30,014,000 as at December 31, 2022 have increased 10.6% compared 
to  the  2021  year  end.  Day’s  sales outstanding  (DSO) calculated  as at  December 31, 2022  was 51.6 
compared to 47.5 days as calculated on December 31, 2021. 2021 was an exceptional year. Historically 
our DSO has sat in the low 50’s. The quality of accounts receivable remains high.  

The year-end investment in inventory of $63,267,000 was an increase of 39.0% from the 2021 inventory 
value of $45,516,000. Inventory turnover decreased to 2.8 from 3.3 (cost of sales divided by the twelve 
month average inventory level). Last year as sales increased it depleted our inventory levels which drove 
our inventory turns up. We have been working hard to replenish our inventories to support the higher 
sales  volumes we are experiencing and  this  is  bringing  our turns back down to historical levels.  Our 
value statement hinges on having our standard product on our shelves. 

Trade and other liabilities increased by $2,680,000, or 10.0% over 2021 to $29,609,000. At  year end 
2022  we  had  accrued  expenses  of  $2,530,000  toward  our  new  facility  project.  Total  long-term  debt, 
lease liabilities and bank indebtedness increased by $12,859,000 over the prior year to $48,392,000. 
This is being driven by our investment in our new facility. Our debt-to-equity ratio at year-end (excluding 
lease  liabilities)  was  approximately  0.45:1  (2021  -  0.32:1).  Debt-to-equity  calculated  inclusive  of  the 
lease liabilities was 0.59:1 (2021 – 0.52:1). In December of 2021, with rate increases in the forecast we 
took the opportunity to lock in $5,660,000 of debt for seven years at 3.83%. It did put us in a positive 
cash position but we knew we would need this toward the outlay for our new facility that started early in 
2022.  

Total dividends paid in 2022 were $680,000 (2021 - $453,000).

$20,218,000 up from $11,565,000 in 2021. The Company spent $14,514,000 (2021 - $4,252,000) on 
land, building and leasehold improvements. $198,000 (2021 - $452,000) was invested toward replacing 
machinery  and  equipment,  $5,078,000  (2021  -  $5,751,000)  was  invested  toward  machinery  and 
equipment for capacity growth, $339,000 (2021 - $871,000) was invested in tooling, $40,000 (2021 - 
$119,000)  was  invested  in  office  equipment.  $49,000  (2021–  $93,000)  was  spent  on  software  and 
development costs. 2022 spending on product development of $nil compared with $27,000 in 2021. 

The overall cash  position decreased  by $3,127,000  in 2022 compared to a cash position  increase  of 
$1,284,000 in 2021. As noted earlier we had excess cash on hand in December of 2021 in anticipation 
of the cash requirements for building our new facility that started in early 2022.  

There were not any significant or renewed leases made in 2022. 

The Company is in compliance with all the bank covenants, and the credit facilities are well designed to

*  EBITDA  and  Adjusted  EBITDA  are  non-IFRS  earnings  measures,  therefore  they  do  not  have  any 
standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards and may not be similar 
to measures presented by other companies. EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes, 
depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA removes the impact of foreign exchange transactional 
so  management  can  assess  the  impact  of  this  on  the  operating  results.  Management  uses  these 
measurements to evaluate the operating results of the Company. These measures are also important 
to management since they are used by the Company’s lenders to evaluate the ongoing cash generating 
capability of the Company and therefore the amounts those lenders are willing to lend to the Company. 
Investors find EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful information because they provide measures 
of the Company’s operating performance. 

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES 

The Glen Ewing Property is a 50% co-tenancy with Hammond Power Solutions Inc. (HPSI) of a vacant 
property located at 2 Glen Road, Georgetown. The soil has been contaminated by diesel oil, which is 
believed to be related to site operations of prior owners. The Company and HPSI, as co-tenants, have 
been  working  co-operatively  with  our  environmental  consultant,  the  Ministry  of  Environment  and  the 
adjacent property owner to contain and remove any free flowing contaminants. The Company’s share 
of  expense  for  legal  and  consulting  work  for  2022  related  to  this  property  was  $148,000  (2021  - 
$139,000). 

The parties started remediation of the site in October 2009. The Company has relied on its consultant’s 
best  estimate  for  the  remaining  environmental  remediation  costs.  The  remediation  plans  intent  is  to 
contain and collect any mobile pollutants. It does not include obtaining a record of site condition. Our 
provision  covers  the  next  four  years  activities.  The  Company’s  remaining  portion  of  environmental 
remediation costs for this site is $225,000 (2021 - $225,000) with $80,000 (2021 - $80,000) presented 
as a current liability in the consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

A statement of claim was issued on June 19, 2013, against the Company with respect to a property once 
held by the Company. The claim alleged that contaminants originating from the property once owned by 
the Company have migrated to a nearby, but not adjoining property owned by the claimants. This claim 
was settled in 2022. The Company agreed to a without costs dismissal of the action in exchange for 
payment to the Company of $112,500. 

A third party statement of claim was issued on March 6, 2019, against the Company with respect to an 
adjacent property to one of our Waterloo facilities. The claim alleges that contaminants originating from 
our property have migrated to the adjoining property owned by the claimants. The amount of the claim 
is estimated at $160,000 to $670,000. Our records do not show any spills of chemicals at this location 
and management is unable to reasonably estimate any liability that may arise as a result of this claim. 
As such, no amount has been recorded in these condensed consolidated financial statements. 

Other than the above noted sites, management is not aware of any unusual or significant environmental 
issues. 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates 
and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, 
liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Revisions to accounting 
estimates  are  recognized  in  the  period  in  which  the  estimates  are  revised  and  in  any  future  periods 
affected.  Management  periodically  reviews  its  estimates  and  underlying  assumptions  relating  to  the 
following items: 

i) 

Inventory 

Inventories  are  valued  at  the  lower  of  cost  or  net  realizable  value.  When  necessary,  the 
write-down  of  inventory  to  its  net  realizable  value  is  recorded  as  a  result  of  industry 
conditions. We have made certain assumptions when determining expected future demand 
by utilizing information such as inventory quantities and aging, historical sales of inventory 
and general market understanding. Reductions in demand for certain of our inventories or 
declining market values, as well as differences between actual results and the assumptions 
utilized  by  us  when  determining  the  market  value  of  our  inventories,  could  result  in  the 
recognition of write-down expenses in future periods. 

ii)  Amortization 

Management makes estimates of the appropriate useful lives to be assigned to intangible 
assets based on the individual circumstances of an acquisition. Management reviews the 
appropriateness  of  the  lives  assigned  and  makes  adjustments  prospectively,  where 
necessary. 

iii)  Impairment tests 

Management  makes  estimates  of  sustainable  earnings,  future  expected  cash  flows  and 
discount rates in the determination of the value-in-use or fair value less costs of disposal of 
cash-generating units (“CGUs”). 

iv)  Provision against accounts receivable 

Management  makes  estimates  on  the  expected  credit  losses  (“ECLs”)  of  accounts 
receivable balances based on customer specific facts and circumstances as well as past 

www.hammondmfg.com 

Annual Report 2022     15 

 
 
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

experience  of  write-offs.  Changes  in  the  economic  conditions  in  which  the  Company’s 
customers operate and their underlying financial stability may impact these estimates. 

v)  Employee future benefits 

Management  estimates  the  discount  rates,  retirement  age  and  future  costs  of  benefits 
associated  with  providing  future employee benefits and  exercises  judgment to  determine 
how many employees will utilize these benefits. 

vi)  Tax assets 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities contain estimates about the nature and timing of future 
permanent and temporary differences as well as the future tax rates that will apply to those 
differences. Changes in  tax laws and rates as well as changes to the expected timing of 
reversals may have a significant impact on the amounts recorded for deferred tax assets 
and liabilities. Management closely monitors current and potential changes to tax law and 
bases its estimates on the best available information at each reporting date. 

vii)  Depreciation 

Management  estimates  future  residual  values  and  the  rate  at  which  the  useful  lives  of 
property  and  equipment  are  consumed  to  determine  appropriate  depreciation  charges. 
Estimates of residual value and useful lives are based on data and information from various 
sources, including vendors, industry practice and Company-specific history. Management 
reviews  the appropriateness of the  lives  assigned  and  makes adjustments  prospectively, 
where necessary.  

viii) Property value 

Management estimates the value  of the investment property to  assess if impairment  has 
occurred. The estimate is made by reviewing local land prices and current sales of similar 
properties as well as property tax value assessment. 

ix)  Environmental remediation: 

Management estimates the value to complete the remediation project on the Glen Ewing 
Property each year by reviewing the project status and activities still to be completed. Any 
changes to the project scope are updated in the cost estimation model and any change in 
the required reserve is recorded in the current year. 

x)  Sales returns: 

Management  estimates  the  value  of  product  that  will  be  returned  based  on  a  historical 
analysis. Any change to the estimate is recorded as a reduction of revenue in the current 
period. 

xi)  Leases: 

For the purpose of initial and subsequent measurement of leases the Company utilizes a 
discounted  interest  rate  in  the  lease  that  is  readily  available  or  the  Groups  incremental 
borrowing  rate.  The  group  also  utilizes  its  best  estimate  of  any  costs  to  dismantle  and 
remove the asset at the end of the lease.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

Use of judgments: 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make 
judgments that affect the application of accounting policies and the interpretation of accounting 
standards. Management periodically reviews its judgments and underlying assumptions relating 
to the following items: 

xii)  Provision for claims 

Judgment  is  exercised  in  deciding  whether  a  liability  for  a  claim  meets  the  criteria  of  a 
present obligation and in assessing the probability of the outflow of economic resources. 

xiii) Leases  

The Company exercises judgement as to whether it is likely to extend the term of the lease 
when the option is provided. 

xiv) Impairment tests 

Management exercises judgment to determine whether there are factors that would indicate 
that  an  asset  or  a  CGU  is  impaired.  The  determination  of  CGUs  is  also  based  on 
management’s judgment and is an assessment of the smallest group of assets that generate 
cash inflows independently of other assets. Factors considered include whether an active 
market  exists  for  the  output  produced  by  the  asset  or  group  of  assets  as  well  as  how 
management monitors and makes decisions about the Company’s operations. 

xv)  Intangible assets 

Management exercises judgment to determine whether identifiable intangible assets were 
acquired in a business combination, separate from goodwill and whether they will provide 
future economic benefits to the Company. 

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Disclosure  controls  and  procedures  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  that  all  relevant 
information is gathered and reported to management on a timely basis so that appropriate decisions can 
be made regarding public disclosure. 

The  purpose  of  internal  controls  over  financial  reporting  as  defined  by  the  Canadian  Securities 
Administrators is to provide reasonable assurance that: 

(i) 

financial  statements  prepared  for  external  purposes  are  in  accordance  with  the  Company's 
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, 

(ii)  transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements, and 

records are maintained in reasonable detail, 

(iii)  receipts and expenditures of the Company are made only in accordance with authorizations of 

the Company's management and directors, and 

(iv)  unauthorized  acquisitions,  uses  or  dispositions  of  the  Company's  assets  that  could  have  a 
material  effect  on  the  financial  statements  will  be  prevented  or  detected  in  order  to  prevent 
material error in financial statements. 

Internal  controls  over  financial  reporting,  no  matter  how  well  designed  have  inherent  limitations. 
Therefore,  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  determined  to  be  effective  can  provide  only 

www.hammondmfg.com 

Annual Report 2022     17 

 
 
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect all 
misstatements. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to 
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of 
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures. Under 
the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer 
(CFO), management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. 
Disclosure  controls  and  procedures  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  that  information 
required  to  be  disclosed  in  annual  filings,  interim  filings  or  other  reports  filed  or  submitted  by  the 
Company under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time 
periods specified in the securities legislation and include controls and procedures designed to ensure 
that  information  required  to  be  disclosed  in  the  annual  filings,  interim  filings  or  other  reports  filed  or 
submitted under securities legislation is accumulated and communicated to management, including the 
Company’s  certifying  officers,  as  appropriate  to  allow  timely  decisions  regarding  required  disclosure. 
Management  concluded  that  the  Company’s  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  were  effectively 
designed as at the December 31, 2022 year end. 

Evaluation of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 

Management  is  responsible  for  establishing  and  maintaining  internal  control  over  financial  reporting. 
Under  the  supervision  and  with  the  participation  of  the  Company’s  CEO  and  the  CFO,  management 
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Internal control is 
a process designed by, or under the supervision of, an issuer’s certifying officers, and effected by the 
issuer’s  board  of  directors,  management  and  other  personnel,  to  provide  reasonable  assurance 
regarding  the  reliability  of  financial  reporting  and  the  preparation  of  financial  statements  for  external 
purposes in accordance with IFRS and includes those policies and procedures that: (a) pertain to the 
maintenance  of  records  that  in  reasonable  detail  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and 
dispositions  of  the  assets  of  the  Company;  (b)  are  designed  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  that 
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with 
the IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with 
authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (c) are designed to provide reasonable 
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the 
company’s assets that could have a material effect on the annual financial statements or interim financial 
statements. The CEO and CFO did not identify any material weaknesses in their evaluation of internal 
control, and concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective, as at 
December 31, 2022.  

There has been no change to internal controls in the most recent quarter ended on December 31, 2022 
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control 
over financial reporting. 

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES 

As with most businesses, the Company is subject to a number of marketplaces, industry and economic 
related business risks, which could have some material, impact on our operating results. 

These risks include: 

•

Security Breaches or Disruptions of Information Technology Systems Risk;

Annual Report 2022     18 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

•

•

•

•

Key personnel;

The  cyclical  effects,  unpredictability  and  volatility  of  market  driven  commodity  costs,  raw
materials such as copper and steel pricing and supply and demand;

A significant, unexpected change in the global demand for resources;

The variability of the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar;

• Rising interest rates;

•

•

•

Economic slowdown in the US and Canada;

Trade restrictions;

Labour costs and labour relations;

• Competition; and

• Global political unrest;

•

Pandemics

The  Company  continuously  works  to  minimize  the  negative  impact  of  these  risks  and  strengthen  its 
position through diversification of its core business, market channel expansion, geographic diversity of 
its operations and business hedging strategies. There are, however, several risks that deserve particular 
attention. 

Security Breaches or Disruptions of Information Technology Systems Risk 

The  Corporation  utilizes  a  variety  of  information  technology  systems  to  manage  and  operate  its 
businesses. These information systems may be owned and maintained by the Corporation, outsource 
providers or third parties such as customers, vendors and contractors. These information systems are 
subject to attacks, failures, and access denials from a number of potential sources including  viruses, 
destructive  or  inadequate  code,  power  failures,  and  physical  damage  to  computers,  hard  drives, 
communication  lines  and  networking  equipment.  Despite  the  implementation  of  extensive  security 
measures  (including  access  controls,  data  encryption,  vulnerability  assessments,  continuous 
monitoring,  and  maintenance  of  back-up  and  protective  systems),  the  Corporation’s  information 
technology systems are potentially vulnerable to interruptions or delays, unauthorized access, computer 
viruses, cyber-attack and other events, ranging from individual attempts to advanced persistent threats. 
It  is  possible  a  security  breach  could  result  in  theft  of  trade  secrets  or  other  intellectual  property  or 
disclosure of confidential customer, supplier or employee information. Should the Corporation be unable 
to prevent security breaches, disruptions could have an adverse effect on the Corporation’s operations 
and financial results, as well as expose the Corporation to litigation, increased cyber security protection 
costs, and reputational damage. 

Key Personnel 

The Company is dependent on the experience and industry knowledge of its executive officers and other 
key employees to execute its business plan. If the Company were to experience a substantial turnover 
in its leadership or other key employees, business results from operations and financial condition could 
be materially adversely affected.  

Commodity Prices 

An area that has had a definite effect on the Company’s costs and earnings is the cyclical effects and 
unprecedented market cost pressures of copper commodity and steel pricing in the global market. Due 
to  this  unpredictability  and  volatility, particularly  with  copper  pricing,  the Company  does  not currently

Annual Report 2022     19 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

utilize future contracts. Strategic supply line agreements and alliances are in place with our major steel 
suppliers to ensure adequate supply and competitive market pricing. 

Foreign Exchange 

The Company’s operating results are reported in Canadian dollars. A significant portion of our sales is 
denominated in US dollars. A change in the value of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar will impact 
revenues  and  earnings.  We  have  created  a  bit  of  a  natural  hedge  as  this  is  partially  offset  by  a 
corresponding change in the cost of materials purchased from the US and commodities tied to US dollar 
pricing. In general, a lower value for the Canadian dollar compared to the US dollar will have a beneficial 
impact on the Company’s results; or, inversely, a higher value for the Canadian dollar compared to the 
US dollar will have a negative impact on the Company’s profitability. In a sensitivity review, if we did not 
react in any way to a one cent change in the value of the Canadian to US dollar value it would have an 
approximate impact on income from operations of $1,104,000 for each cent movement. The Company 
also has a US operating subsidiary and US dollar assets. The exchange rate between the Canadian and 
US dollar can vary significantly from year to year. There is a corresponding positive or negative impact 
to  the  Company’s  Consolidated  Statements  of  Comprehensive  Income  solely  related  to  the  foreign 
exchange translation of its Consolidated Statements of Financial  Position. We have  partially  reduced 
the  impact  of  foreign  exchange  fluctuations  through  increasing  our  US  dollar  driven  manufacturing 
output.  Finally,  the  Company  periodically  institutes  price  increases  /  reductions  to  help  offset  the 
negative / positive impact of changes in foreign exchange and product cost increases / decreases. The 
Company  is  also  exposed  to  the  impact  from  the  British  pound  sterling  and  Euro  as  well  as  to  the 
Australian dollar but not to the level of exposure of the US dollar. 

Interest Rates 

Bank indebtedness makes up close to 39.4% of the Company’s debt financing (excluding Right of use 
obligations). The interest rates have climbed significantly in 2022 as governments try to fight inflation. 
The  Company  is  cognizant  that  a  rise  in  interest  rates  negatively  impacts  the  financial  results  of  the 
Company. The Company continuously reviews this strategy of hedging this risk by fixing interest rates 
on part of its total debt. 

North American Economy 

We will continue to react to the market conditions to grow our business. Our efforts over the next 12 
months will continue to be on projects that will reduce our costs and improve our manufacturing flexibility. 
We believe that being nimble as an organization will become even more important in order to respond 
quickly to both unexpected opportunities as well as challenges. We also believe that our growing access 
to a variety of markets both global and domestic through our OEM and distributor channels will help the 
Company expand market share.  

Global Political Unrest 

Today’s politics can have significant repercussions on doing business. Issues are constantly changing 
and management has to assess the potential outcomes of the different issues and be prepared to react 
or mitigate anything that would have a negative impact on our business.  

PANDEMICS 

Global  Pandemics  such  as  the  COVID  outbreak  that  started  in  2020  can  have  dramatic  impacts  on 
markets as supply chains, labour forces, logistic etc. become susceptible to disruption. It is important to 
get out in front of these situations and be prepared to react to mitigate the issues as they arise.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGES 

The  International  Accounting  Standards  Board  (IASB)  has  issued  the  following  Standards, 
Interpretations and Amendments to Standards that were adopted by the Group. 

Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to IAS 16) 

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended 
Use (Amendments to IAS 16). The amendments clarify that proceeds from selling items before 
the related item of Property, Plant and Equipment is available for use should be recognised in 
profit or loss, together with the cost of producing those items. 

The amendments were adopted January 1, 2022. The impact of adoption of these amendments 
did not have an impact on the business.  

Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract (Amendments to IAS 37) 

On  May  14,  2020,  the  IASB  issued  Onerous  Contracts  –  Cost  of  Fulfilling  a  Contract 
(Amendments to IAS 37). This amendment clarifies which costs are included as a cost of fulfilling 
a contract when determining whether a contract is onerous. 

The amendments were adopted January 1, 2022. The impact of adoption of these amendments 
did not have an impact on the business.  

Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020 

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020. 

The amendments were adopted January 1, 2022. The impact of adoption of these amendments 
did not have an impact on the business.  

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments 

Clarifies  which  fees  are  included  for  the  purpose  of  performing  the  ‘10  per  cent  test’  for 
derecognition of financial liabilities. 

IFRS 16 Leases  

Removes the illustration of payments from the lessor relating to leasehold improvements. 

The impact of adoption of these improvements did not have an impact on the business. 

Future Accounting Changes 

At the date of authorization of these financial statements, several new, but not yet effective, Standards 
and amendments to existing Standards, and Interpretations have been published by the IASB. None of 
these Standards or amendments to existing Standards have been adopted early by the Group and it is 
still to be determined if any will have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements. 

Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1) 

On  January  23,  2020,  the  IASB  issued  amendments  to  IAS  1  Presentation  of  Financial 
Statements, to clarify the classification of liabilities as current or non-current.  In October 2022, 
the  IASB  issued  Non-current  Liabilities  with  Covenants  (amendments  to  IAS  1)  (the  2022 
amendments),  to  improve  the  information  a  company  provides  about  long-term  debt  with 
covenants.  

www.hammondmfg.com 

Annual Report 2022     21 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

The 2020 amendments and the 2022 amendments (collectively “the Amendments”) are effective 
for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. A company 
that applies the 2020 amendments early is required to also apply the 2022 amendments. 

Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments to IAS8) 

On  February  12,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  Definition  of  Accounting  Estimates  (Amendments  to 
IAS8).  The amendments introduce a new definition for accounting estimates, clarifying that they 
are monetary amounts in the financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty. 
The  amendments  also  clarify  the  relationship  between  accounting  policies  and  accounting 
estimates  by  specifying  that  a  company  develops  an  accounting  estimate  to  achieve  the 
objective set out by an accounting policy. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early 
adoption is permitted. 

Disclosure initiative – Accounting Policies (Amendments to IAS 1) 

On  February  12,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  amendments  to  IAS  1  Presentation  of  Financial 
Statements and an update to IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements to help 
companies provide useful accounting policy disclosures.  

The key amendments to IAS 1 include a requirement for companies to disclose their material 
accounting  policies  rather  than  their  significant  accounting  policies;  clarifying  that  accounting 
policies related to immaterial transactions, other events or conditions are themselves immaterial 
and as such need not be disclosed; and clarifying that not all accounting policies that relate to 
material  transactions,  other  events  or  conditions  are  themselves  material  to  a  company’s 
financial statements. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early 
adoption is permitted. 

Deferred  Tax  related  to  Assets  and  Liabilities  arising  from  a  Single  Transaction 
(Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes) 

On May 7, 2021, the IASB issued Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a 
Single Transaction (Amendments to IAS 12).  

The amendments narrow the scope of the initial recognition exemption (IRE) so that it does not 
apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. As a result, 
companies will need to recognize a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability for temporary 
differences arising on initial recognition of a lease and a decommissioning provision. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier 
adoption is permitted. 

Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases) 

On September 22, 2022, the IASB issued Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments 
to IFRS 16). 

The  amendments  introduce  a  new  accounting  model  which  impacts  how  a  seller-lessee 
accounts for variable lease payments that arise in a sale-and-leaseback transaction.  

www.hammondmfg.com 

Annual Report 2022     22 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS 

The amendments clarify that: 

–

–

on initial recognition, the seller-lessee includes variable lease payments when it measures
a lease liability arising from a sale-and-leaseback transaction.

after initial recognition, the seller-lessee applies the general requirements for subsequent
accounting of the lease liability such that it recognises no gain or loss relating to the right of
use it retains.

The amendments need to be applied retrospectively, which require seller-lessees to reassess 
and  potentially  restate  sale-and-leaseback  transactions  entered  into  since  implementation  of 
IFRS 16 in 2019. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Early 
adoption is permitted.  

Management anticipates that all relevant pronouncements will be adopted for the first period beginning 
on or after the effective date of the pronouncement. New Standards, amendments and Interpretations 
not adopted in the current year have not been disclosed as they are not expected to have a material 
impact on the Group’s financial statements. 

OUTLOOK FACTORS FOR 2023 

The feedback we have from our markets is that we will see growth in the low-single digit area in 2023. . 

The current outlook for the US dollar is that it will remain relatively strong. A strong US dollar does help 
our  return  in  our  US  markets.  We  continue  to  competitively  price  our  products  and  stimulate  market 
share growth.  

The Company continues with the objective of sales growth and increased market share but will weigh 
this against achieving acceptable margins.  

Capital spending will continue to be focused on high impact projects as accommodated by cash flows. 

Our primary focus continues to be on productivity and margin improvement.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL REPORTING 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of  the  management  of  Hammond 
Manufacturing  Company  Limited.  These  statements  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with 
International Financial Reporting Standards, using management’s best estimates and judgments, where 
appropriate. 

Management is responsible for the reliability and integrity of the consolidated financial statements, the 
notes to the consolidated financial statements and other financial information contained in the report. In 
the  preparation  of  these  statements,  estimates  are  sometimes  necessary  because  a  precise 
determination of certain assets and liabilities is dependent on future events.  Management believes such 
estimates have been based on careful judgment and have been properly reflected in the accompanying 
consolidated financial statements. 

Management  is responsible for the maintenance of a system of internal controls designed  to provide 
reasonable  assurance  that  the  assets  are  safeguarded  and  that  accounting  systems  provide  timely, 
accurate and reliable financial information. 

The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities for financial 
reporting and internal control.  The Board of Directors is assisted in exercising its responsibilities through 
the Audit Committee of the Board, which is composed of three non-management directors.  The Audit 
Committee  meets  periodically  with  management  and  the  auditors  to  satisfy  itself  that  management’s 
responsibilities  are  properly  discharged,  to  review  the  consolidated  financial  statements  and  to 
recommend approval of the consolidated financial statements to the Board of Directors. 

KPMG  LLP,  the  independent  auditors  appointed  by  the  shareholders,  has  audited  the  Company’s 
consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards 
and  their  report  follows.  The  independent  auditors  have  full  and  unrestricted  access  to  the  Audit 
Committee to discuss their audit and related findings as to the integrity of the financial reporting process.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

To the Shareholders of Hammond Manufacturing Company Limited 

Opinion 

We  have  audited  the  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Hammond  Manufacturing 
Company Limited (the Company), which comprise: 











the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2022 and 2021

the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the years then ended

the consolidated statements of changes in equity for the years then ended

the consolidated statements of cash flows for the years then ended

and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant
accounting policies

(Hereinafter referred to as the “financial statements”). 

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, 
the consolidated financial position of the Company as December 31, 2022 and 2021, and 
its  consolidated  financial  performance  and  its  consolidated  cash  flows  for  the years  then 
ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

Basis for Opinion 

We  conducted  our  audit  in  accordance  with  Canadian  generally  accepted  auditing 
standards.    Our  responsibilities  under  those  standards  are  further  described  in  the 
“Auditor’s  Responsibilities  for  the  Audit  of  the  Financial  Statements”  section  of  our 
auditor’s report.   

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are 
relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Canada and we have fulfilled our other 
ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide 
a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matter  

Key  audit  matters  are  those  matters  that,  in  our  professional  judgment,  were  of  most 
significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. 
These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a 
whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on 
these matters. 

We  have  determined  the  matters  described  below  to  be  the  key  audit  matters  to  be 
communicated in our auditor’s report. 

Evaluation of the write-down of inventory for excess or obsolescence 

Description of the matter 

We draw attention to notes 2(d)(i), 3(c) and 5 to the financial statements.  The Company 
has inventory with a carrying value of $63,267 thousand. Inventory is valued at the lower of 
cost or net realizable value. When necessary, the Company will write-down inventory to its 
net realizable value. The determination of net realizable value requires the Entity to make 
certain assumptions including forecasted demand.  

Why the matter is a key audit matter 

We identified the evaluation of the write-down of inventory for excess and obsolescence as 
a key audit matter. There is a high degree of estimation uncertainty as well as complexity in 
predicting forecasted demand. Significant auditor judgement was required to evaluate the 
results  of  our  audit  procedures  due  to  the  estimation  uncertainty  associated  with  the 
determination of net realizable value.  

How the matter was addressed in the audit 

The  primary  procedures  we  performed  to  address  this  key  audit  matter  included  the 
following:  

We evaluated the Entity’s ability to accurately forecast demand by comparing the Entity’s 
prior year expectations of forecasted demand to actual sales data, inventory usage, and 
publicly available industry outlook reports. 

Other Information 

Management is responsible for the other information. Other information comprises: 





the  information  included  in  Management’s  Discussion  and  Analysis  filed  with  the
relevant Canadian Securities Commissions.

the  information,  other  than  the  financial  statements  and  the  auditor’s  report  thereon,
included in a document entitled “Annual Report”.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not 
and will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

www.hammondmfg.com 

Annual Report 2022     26 

Page 3 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other 
information  identified  above  and,  in  doing  so,  consider  whether  the  other  information  is 
materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit 
and remain alert for indications that the other information appears to be materially misstated. 

We obtained the information included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed with 
the relevant Canadian Securities Commissions and the Annual Report as at the date of this 
auditor’s report.   If, based on the work we have performed on this other information, we 
conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to 
report that fact in the auditor’s report. 

We have nothing to report in this regard. 

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance 
for the Financial Statements 

Management  is  responsible  for  the  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  the  financial 
statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and for 
such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of 
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In  preparing  the  financial  statements,  management  is  responsible  for  assessing  the 
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing as applicable, matters related 
to  going  concern  and  using  the  going  concern  basis  of  accounting  unless  management 
either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative 
but to do so. 

Those  charged  with  governance  are  responsible  for  overseeing  the  Company’s  financial 
reporting process. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 
as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue 
an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.  

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit 
conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always 
detect a material misstatement when it exists.  

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in 
the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of 
users taken on the basis of the financial statements. 

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we 
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.  

www.hammondmfg.com 

Annual Report 2022     27 

Page 4 

We also: 


Identify  and  assess  the  risks  of  material  misstatement  of  the  financial  statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our opinion.

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

 Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.

 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of

accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

 Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists,
we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s
report.  However,  future  events  or  conditions  may  cause  the  Company  to  cease  to
continue as a going concern.

 Evaluate  the  overall  presentation,  structure  and  content  of  the  financial  statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

 Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the
planned  scope  and  timing  of  the  audit  and  significant  audit  findings,  including  any
significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

 Provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them all
relationships  and  other  matters  that  may  reasonably  be  thought  to  bear  on  our
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

 Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the
entities  or  business  activities  within  the  group  Entity  to  express  an  opinion  on  the
financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance
of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

 Determine, from the matters communicated with those charged with governance, those
matters  that  were  of  most  significance  in  the  audit  of  the  financial  statements  of  the
current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in
our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter
or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
communicated in our auditor’s report because the adverse consequences of doing so
would  reasonably  be  expected  to  outweigh  the  public  interest  benefits  of  such
communication.

HAMMOND MANUFACTURING COMPANY LIMITED 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  
Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 
(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

1) 

Introduction: 

a)  Reporting entity: 

Hammond  Manufacturing  Company  Limited (“HMCL”  or  the “Company”) is a  public company 
traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “HMM.A” and is incorporated under 
the Ontario Business Corporations Act. The address of the Company’s registered office is 394 
Edinburgh Road North, Guelph, Ontario. The consolidated financial statements of the Company 
as  at  and  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2022  include  the  Company  and  its  subsidiaries 
(together referred to as the “Group” and individually as “Group entities”) and the Group’s interest 
in jointly controlled entities. The Group primarily is involved in the design, manufacture and sale 
of electrical and electronic components. Facilities are located in Canada, the US, the UK, the 
Netherlands,  Taiwan  and  Australia,  with  agents  and  distributors  located  worldwide.  The 
Company also maintains a 40% ownership share of RITEC Enclosures Inc. (RITEC) located in 
Taiwan. RITEC produces plastic and die cast enclosures for sale through the Company’s sales 
network and its own existing market channels.  

2)  Basis of preparation: 

a)  Statement of compliance: 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International 
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 

The Board of Directors approved these consolidated financial statements on March 7, 2023. 

b)  Basis of measurement: 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. 

c)  Functional and presentation currency:  

The  consolidated  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Canadian  dollars.  The  functional 
currency  of  the  Group’s  entities  is  the  currency  of  their  primary  economic  environment.  In 
individual companies, transactions in foreign currencies are recorded at the rate of exchange at 
the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at the reporting 
date are re-measured to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Any resulting 
exchange  differences  are  taken  to  the  statement  of  comprehensive  income.  Non-monetary 
items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the 
exchange rate at the date of the transaction. On consolidation, assets and liabilities of Group 
entities reported in their functional currencies are translated into the Canadian dollar, being the 
presentation currency, at the exchange rate on the reporting date. The income and expenses of 
foreign  operations  are  translated  to  Canadian  dollars  using  average  exchange  rates  for  the 
months  during  which  the  transactions  occurred.  Foreign  currency  translation  differences  are 
income  which  is  included  in  accumulated  other 
recognized  in  other  comprehensive 
comprehensive income. The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiary operations located 
in the US, UK, Netherlands, Taiwan and Australia are the US dollar, the British pound sterling, 
Euro,  Taiwan  dollar  and  the  Australian  dollar  respectively.  The  functional  currency  of  the 
Company’s Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  
Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 
(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

d)  Use of estimates: 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make 
estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported 
amount  of  assets,  liabilities,  income  and  expense.  Actual  results  may  differ  from  these 
estimates.  Revisions  to  accounting  estimates  are  recognized  in  the  period  in  which  the 
estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Management periodically reviews its 
estimates and underlying assumptions relating to the following items: 

i) 

Inventory 

Inventories  are  valued  at  the  lower  of  cost  or  net  realizable  value.  When  necessary,  the 
write-down  of  inventory  to  its  net  realizable  value  is  recorded  as  a  result  of  industry 
conditions. We have made certain assumptions including expected forecasted demand by 
utilizing information such as inventory quantities and aging, historical sales of inventory and 
general  market  understanding.  Reductions  in  demand  for  certain  of  our  inventories  or 
declining market values, as well as differences between actual results and the assumptions 
utilized  by  us  when  determining  the  market  value  of  our  inventories,  could  result  in  the 
recognition of write-down expenses in future periods. 

ii)  Amortization 

Management makes estimates of the appropriate useful lives to be assigned to intangible 
assets based on the individual circumstances of an acquisition. Management reviews the 
appropriateness  of  the  lives  assigned  and  makes  adjustments  prospectively,  where 
necessary. 

iii)  Impairment tests 

Management  makes  estimates  of  sustainable  earnings,  future  expected  cash  flows  and 
discount rates in the determination of the value-in-use or fair value less costs of disposal of 
cash-generating units (“CGUs”). 

iv)  Provision against accounts receivable 

Management  makes  estimates  on  the  expected  credit  losses  (“ECLs”)  of  accounts 
receivable balances based on customer specific facts and circumstances as well as past 
experience  of  write-offs.  Changes  in  the  economic  conditions  in  which  the  Company’s 
customers operate and their underlying financial stability may impact these estimates. 

v)  Employee future benefits 

Management  estimates  the  discount  rates,  retirement  age  and  future  costs  of  benefits 
associated  with  providing  future employee benefits and  exercises  judgment to  determine 
how many employees will utilize these benefits. 

vi)  Tax assets 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities contain estimates about the nature and timing of future 
permanent and temporary differences as well as the future tax rates that will apply to those 
differences. Changes in  tax laws and rates as well as changes to the expected timing of 
reversals may have a significant impact on the amounts recorded for deferred tax assets 
and liabilities. Management closely monitors current and potential changes to tax law and 
bases its estimates on the best available information at each reporting date.

HAMMOND MANUFACTURING COMPANY LIMITED 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  
Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 
(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

vii)  Depreciation 

Management  estimates  future  residual  values  and  the  rate  at  which  the  useful  lives  of 
property  and  equipment  are  consumed  to  determine  appropriate  depreciation  charges. 
Estimates of residual value and useful lives are based on data and information from various 
sources, including vendors, industry practice and Company-specific history. Management 
reviews  the appropriateness of the  lives  assigned  and  makes adjustments  prospectively, 
where necessary.  

viii) Property value 

Management estimates the value  of the investment property to  assess if impairment  has 
occurred. The estimate is made by reviewing local land prices and current sales of similar 
properties as well as property tax value assessment. 

ix)  Environmental remediation: 

Management estimates the value to complete the remediation project on the Glen Ewing 
Property each year by reviewing the project status and activities still to be completed. Any 
changes to the project scope are updated in the cost estimation model and any change in 
the required reserve is recorded in the current year. 

x)  Sales returns: 

Management  estimates  the  value  of  product  that  will  be  returned  based  on  a  historical 
analysis. Any change to the estimate is recorded as a reduction of revenue in the current 
period. 

xi)  Leases: 

For the purpose of initial and subsequent measurement of leases the Company utilizes a 
discount rate in the lease that is readily available or the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. 
The Group also utilizes its best estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at 
the end of the lease. 

e)  Use of judgments: 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make 
judgments that affect the application of accounting policies and the interpretation of accounting 
standards. Management periodically reviews its judgments and underlying assumptions relating 
to the following items: 

i)  Provision for claims 

Judgment  is  exercised  in  deciding  whether  a  liability  for  a  claim  meets  the  criteria  of  a 
present obligation and in assessing the probability of the outflow of economic resources. 

ii)  Leases 

The Company exercises judgement as to whether it is likely to extend the term of the lease 
when the option is provided. 

iii)  Impairment tests 

Management exercises judgment to determine whether there are factors that would indicate 
that  an  asset  or  a  CGU  is  impaired.  The  determination  of  CGUs  is  also  based  on

Annual Report 2022     36 

 
 
HAMMOND MANUFACTURING COMPANY LIMITED 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  
Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 
(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

management’s judgment and is an assessment of the smallest group of assets that generate 
cash inflows independently of other assets. Factors considered include whether an active 
market  exists  for  the  output  produced  by  the  asset  or  group  of  assets  as  well  as  how 
management monitors and makes decisions about the Company’s operations. 

iv)  Intangible assets 

Management exercises judgment to determine whether identifiable intangible assets were 
acquired in a business combination, separate from goodwill and whether they will provide 
future economic benefits to the Company. 

3)  Summary of significant accounting policies: 

Except  for  the  changes  explained  in  “new  standards  and  interpretations  adopted”  below,  the 
accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these 
consolidated financial statements. These accounting policies have been consistently applied by all 
Group entities. 

a)  Basis of consolidation: 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  Hammond  Manufacturing 
Company  Limited,  its  wholly  owned  subsidiaries,  Hammond  Manufacturing  Company  Inc., 
Hammond Electronics Limited, Hammond Electronics Pty Limited, Les Fabrications Hammond 
(Quebec)  Inc.,  Hammond  Electronics  Asia  Limited,  Hammond  Electronics  B.V.  and  its 
proportionate  share  of  the  Glen  Ewing  Property,  an  unincorporated  co-tenancy  (50%).  All 
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The 
consolidated financial statements include the investment in RITEC, which is accounted for using 
the equity method.  

b)  Revenue recognition: 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps: a) identification of 
the contract with a customer, b) identification of the performance obligations in the contract, c) 
determination of the transaction price, d) allocation of the transaction price to the performance 
obligations  in  the  contract  and  e)  recognition  of  revenue  when  the  Company  satisfies  a 
performance obligation.  

The Company principally generates revenue through the manufacturing and sale of industrial 
enclosures,  electronic  enclosures,  racks  and  cabinets,  transformers  and  other  products. 
Revenue is recognized when control of a product is transferred to a customer. This is generally 
at the point in time when product is available for physical delivery, and the customer has legal 
title to, physical possession of (or through their carrier), and the risks and rewards of ownership 
of the product have transferred; therefore, the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain 
substantially  all  of  the benefits of  the  product. There  is only  a  single  performance  obligation, 
except for where delivery is provided by Hammond after the point of transfer.  

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer, net 
of variable consideration, including rebates, returns and discounts. Rebates are accrued using 
sales data and rebate percentages specific to each customer contract. Accruals for sales returns 
are  calculated  based  on  the  best  estimate  of  the  amount  of  product  that  will  ultimately  be 
returned by customers. All customer receivables are expected to be paid within one year and 
therefore the Company does not adjust for the effects of a financing component.

Contract  liabilities  are  recorded  when  cash  payments  are  received  or  due  in  advance  of  the 
Company’s performance. 

c) 

Inventories: 

Inventories  are  valued  at  the  lower  of  cost,  determined  on  a  first-in,  first-out  basis  and  net 
realizable value, and include expenditures incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or 
conversion  costs  and  other  costs  incurred  in  bringing  them  to  their  existing  location  and 
condition.  In  the  case  of  manufactured  inventories  and  work  in  progress,  costs  include  an 
appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. Net realizable 
value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs 
of  completion  and  selling  expenses.  When  circumstances  that  previously  gave  rise  to  an 
inventory write down no longer exist, the previous impairment is reversed. 

d) 

Investment property: 

Investment property is property held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or 
for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of 
goods or services or for administrative purposes. The Group measures its investment property, 
being the land held by Glen Ewing Property, at historical cost. 

e)  Property, plant and equipment: 

Property, plant and equipment are shown in the statements of financial position at their historical 
cost. Costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The 
cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs 
directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs 
of  dismantling  and  removing  the  items  and  restoring  the  site  on  which  they  are  located,  and 
borrowing costs on qualifying assets. Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of 
the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment. When parts of an item of property, 
plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major 
components) of property,  plant  and  equipment. Depreciation  is  provided  on  components that 
have homogenous useful lives by using the straight-line method or unit of production method so 
as to depreciate the initial cost down to the residual value over the estimated useful lives. 

The  depreciation  rates  based  on  the  estimated  useful  lives  for  the  current  and  comparative 
periods are as follows: 

Asset 

Buildings  
Office equipment  
Machinery and equipment  
Tooling general use  

Tooling specific part 

Useful Life

20 to 40 years 
4 to 10 years 
4 to 10 years  
4 to 10 years  

Based on anticipated life unit output

Assets  are  amortized  over  their  useful  life  on  a  straight-line  basis,  except  for  specific  tooling 
items which are amortized based on units of production method.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end 
and adjusted, if appropriate. 

f) 

Intangible assets other than goodwill: 

Intangible  assets  have  been  externally  acquired.  Intangible  assets  are  stated  at  cost  less 
accumulated amortization.  Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized using the straight-
line method at rates calculated to amortize the cost of these assets over their estimated useful 
lives.  

The  amortization  rates  based  on  the  estimated  useful  lives  for  the  current  and  comparative 
periods are as follows:

Asset 

Computer software 
Development costs 

Straight-Line Method 

5 years 
5 years

Amortization methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each financial year-end 
and adjusted, if appropriate. 

g) 

Investments measured using equity method: 

The Company uses the equity method as a basis of accounting for investments in companies 
over  which  it  exercises  significant  influence  or  joint  control.  Under  the  equity  method,  the 
Company  records  these  investments  initially  at  cost  and  the  carrying  values  are  adjusted 
thereafter to include the Company's pro rata share of post-acquisition earnings of the investees, 
computed by the consolidation method. The adjustments are included in the determination of 
net income by the Company, and the investment accounts of the Company are also increased 
or  decreased  to  reflect  the  Company's  share  of  capital  transactions  (including  amounts 
recognized in other comprehensive income). Profit distributions received from investees reduce 
the carrying values of the investments. Unrealized intercompany gains or losses are eliminated. 

The  Company’s  determination  of  significant  influence  is  based  on  consideration  of  voting 
interest  in  the  investees  along  with  other  indicators  such  as  representation  on  the  board  of 
directors,  participation  in  policy-making  processes,  material  intercompany  transactions, 
interchange of managerial personnel or provision of technical information. The Company uses 
the equity method to account for its 40% interest in RITEC.  

h) 

Income taxes: 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the 
asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future 
tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts 
of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities 
are  measured  using  enacted  or substantively  enacted  tax rates  expected  to apply to  taxable 
income  in  the  years  in  which  those  temporary  differences  are  expected  to  be  recovered  or 
settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized 
in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. A deferred 
tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences,

HAMMOND MANUFACTURING COMPANY LIMITED

(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can 
be  utilized.  Deferred  tax  assets  are  reviewed  at  each  reporting  date  and  are  reduced  to  the 
extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. 

i)  Goodwill: 

Acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method required by IFRS 3. Goodwill is the 
residual amount that results when the purchase price of an acquired business exceeds the sum 
of the amount allocated to the identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed based on their 
fair values. Goodwill is allocated as of the date of the business combination to the Company’s 
CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. Goodwill is 
tested for impairment at least annually and upon the occurrence of an indication of impairment.  

j)  Provisions: 

Provisions may include liabilities of uncertain timing or amounts that arise from environmental, 
litigation,  commercial  or  other  risks.  Provisions  are  recognized  when  a  legal  or  constructive 
obligation exists stemming from a past event and when the future cash outflows can be reliably 
estimated. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-
tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks 
specific to the liability. Environmental provisions consider the present value of the anticipated 
clean-up costs. 

k)  Earnings per share: 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares 
outstanding  during  the  reporting  period.    Diluted  earnings  per  share  are  computed  similar  to 
basic earnings per share except that the weighted average shares outstanding are increased to 
include additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive.  The number 
of additional shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options were exercised 
and that the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire shares of common stock at the 
average market price during the reporting period. 

l)  Financial assets and financial liabilities: 

Financial  assets  are  initially  measured  at  fair  value.  On  initial  recognition,  the  Company 
classifies its financial assets at either amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive 
income or fair value through profit or loss, depending on its business model for managing the 
financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. Financial 
assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, unless the Company changes 
its business model for managing financial assets. 

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both of the following conditions: a) 
the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual 
cash flows and b) the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash 
flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. 

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net  of transaction costs incurred. They 
are  subsequently  carried  at  amortized  cost  using  the  effective  interest  rate  method;  any 
difference  between  the  proceeds  (net  of  transaction  costs)  and  the  redemption  value  is 
recognized as an adjustment to interest expense over the period of the borrowings.  

Financial liabilities include bank indebtedness, trade and other payables and long-term debt.

(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

m)  Impairment: 

i)  Financial assets: 

ECLs are recognized on all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. 
Expected credit losses are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due 
in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Company expects to receive, 
discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate.  

ECLs are recognized in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a 
significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses 
that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months. For those credit 
exposures  for  which  there  has  been  a  significant  increase  in  credit  risk  since  initial 
recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life 
of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default. 

For trade receivables and  contract assets, the Company  applies a simplified approach in 
calculating ECLs. Therefore, the Company does not track changes in credit risk, but instead 
recognizes a loss allowance based on lifetime ECL at each reporting date. The Company 
has  established  a  provision  matrix  that  is  based  on  its  historical  credit  loss  experience, 
adjusted for forward looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.  

ii)  Non-financial assets: 

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting 
date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, 
then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill, and intangible assets that 
have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is 
estimated each year at the same time. 

The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair 
value  less  costs  to  sell.  In  assessing  value  in  use,  the  estimated  future  cash  flows  are 
discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market 
assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For the purpose 
of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into 
the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely 
independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets.  

For  the  purposes  of  goodwill  impairment  testing,  goodwill  acquired  in  a  business 
combination is allocated to the CGU, or the group of CGUs, that is expected to benefit from 
the synergies of the combination. The value in use is based on their future projected cash 
flows discounted to the present value at an appropriate pre-tax discount rate. Usually, the 
cash flows correspond to estimates made by Group management in financial and strategic 
business plans covering a period of five years. They are then projected beyond five years 
using a steady or declining growth rate given that the Group businesses are of a long-term 
nature.  The  discount  rate  used  approximates  the  Company’s  weighted  average  cost  of 
capital. The business risk is included in the determination of the cash flows. Both the cash 
flows and the discount rates exclude inflation. The Group completed its annual impairment 
test  at  December  31,  2022  and  December  31,  2021,  and  concluded  there  was  no 
impairment.

Annual Report 2022     41 

 
 
HAMMOND MANUFACTURING COMPANY LIMITED 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements  
Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 
(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

The Group’s corporate assets do not generate separate cash inflows. If there is an indication 
that a corporate asset may be impaired, then the recoverable amount is determined for the 
CGU to which the corporate asset is allocated. 

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its 
estimated  recoverable  amount.  Impairment  losses  are  recognized  in  profit  or  loss. 
Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying 
amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of 
the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis. 

An  impairment  loss  in  respect  of  goodwill  is  not  reversed.  In  respect  of  other  assets, 
impairment losses recognized in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any 
indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed 
only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount 
that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss 
had been recognized. 

Goodwill  that  forms  part  of  the  carrying  amount  of  an  investment  in  an  associate  is  not 
recognized separately, and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the 
entire amount of the investment in an associate is tested for impairment as a single asset 
when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate may be impaired. 

n)  Employee Benefits: 

i)  Defined contribution plans: 

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays 
fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to 
pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are 
recognized  as  an  employee  benefit  expense  in  the  periods  during  which  services  are 
rendered by the employees. Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent 
that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available. 

ii)  Other long-term employee benefits: 

The Group’s net obligation in respect of long-term employee benefits, other than pension 
plans, is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service 
in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value and 
the  fair  value  of  any  related  assets  is  deducted.  Any  actuarial  gains  and  losses  are 
recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. 

iii)  Termination benefits: 

Termination  benefits  are  recognized  as  an  expense  when  the  Group  is  committed 
demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either 
terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits 
as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Termination benefits for 
voluntary redundancies are recognized as an expense if the Group has made an offer of 
voluntary  redundancy,  it  is  probable  that  the  offer  will  be  accepted,  and  the  number  of 
acceptances can be estimated reliably. If benefits are payable more than 12 months after 
the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value.

(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

iv)  Short-term employee benefits: 

Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are 
expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected 
to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present 
legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by 
the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably. 

v)  Share-based payment transactions: 

The  grant  date  fair  value  of  share-based  payment  awards  granted  to  employees  is 
recognized as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus 
in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. 
The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which 
the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the 
amount  ultimately  recognized  as  an  expense  is  based  on  the  number  of  awards  that  do 
meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For 
share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the 
share-based  payment  is  measured  to  reflect  such  conditions  and  there  is  no  true  up  for 
differences between expected and actual outcomes. Share-based payment arrangements 
in  which  the  Group  receives  goods  or  services  as  consideration  for  its  own  equity 
instruments  are  accounted  for  as  equity-settled  share-based  payment  transactions, 
regardless of how the equity instruments are obtained by the Group.  

o)  Segment reporting: 

The  continuing  operations  of  the  Company  are  in  one  operating  segment,  electrical  and 
electronic components. 

p)  Finance costs: 

Finance costs consist of interest on borrowings and finance leases. 

q)  Government Grants: 

Grants  from  the  government  are  recognized  at  their  fair  value  where  there  is  a  reasonable 
assurance  that  the  grant  will  be  received  and  the  Company  will  comply  with  all  attached 
conditions.  

Government grants in respect of capital expenditures are credited to the carrying amount of the 
related asset and are released to income over the expected useful lives of the relevant assets. 
Government grants which are not associated with an asset are credited to income so as to net 
them against the expense to which they relate. 

r)  Leases: 

At  inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A 
contract is, or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified 
asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess whether a contract conveys 
the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group uses the definition of a lease in IFRS 
16.

As a Lessee: 

At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group 
allocates the consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative 
stand-alone prices. 

The  Group  recognizes  a  right-of-use  asset  and  a  lease  liability  at  the  lease  commencement 
date. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of 
the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, 
plus  any  initial  direct  costs  incurred  and  an  estimate  of  costs  to  dismantle  and  remove  the 
underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any 
lease incentives received. 

The  right-of-use  asset  is  subsequently  depreciated  using  the  straight-line  method  from  the 
commencement date to the end of the lease term, unless the lease transfers ownership of the 
underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-use asset 
reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case the right-of-use asset will be 
depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis 
as those of property and equipment.  In addition, the right-of-use asset is periodically reduced 
by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain remeasurements of the lease liability. 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not 
paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that 
rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group 
uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. 

The Group determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various 
external financing sources and makes certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and 
type of the asset leased. 

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following: 

fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments; 

— 
—  variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the 

index or rate as at the commencement date; 

—  amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and 

— 

the exercise price under a purchase option that the Group is reasonably certain to 
exercise, lease payment in an optional renewal period if the Group is reasonably certain to 
exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease unless the 
Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early. 

The  lease  liability  is  measured  at  amortized  cost  using  the  effective  interest  method.  It  is 
remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index 
or rate, if there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected to be payable under 
a residual value guarantee, if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a 
purchase,  extension  or  termination  option  or  if  there  is  a  revised  in-substance  fixed  lease 
payment. 

When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the 
carrying amount of the right-of-use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount 
of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets: 

The  Group has elected  not to recognize  right-of-use  assets and lease  liabilities  for leases of 
low-value  assets  and  short-term  leases,  including  IT  equipment.  The  Group  recognizes  the 
lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the 
lease term. 

s)  New standards and interpretations adopted: 

The  International  Accounting  Standards  Board  (IASB)  has  issued  the  following  Standards, 
Interpretations and Amendments to Standards that were adopted by the Group. 

Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to IAS 16) 

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended 
Use (Amendments to IAS 16). The amendments clarify that proceeds from selling items before 
the related item of Property, Plant and Equipment is available for use should be recognised in 
profit or loss, together with the cost of producing those items. 

The amendments were adopted January 1, 2022. The impact of adoption of these amendments 
did not have an impact on the business.  

Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fulfilling a Contract (Amendments to IAS 37) 

On  May  14,  2020,  the  IASB  issued  Onerous  Contracts  –  Cost  of  Fulfilling  a  Contract 
(Amendments to IAS 37). This amendment clarifies which costs are included as a cost of fulfilling 
a contract when determining whether a contract is onerous. 

The amendments were adopted January 1, 2022. The impact of adoption of these amendments 
did not have an impact on the business.  

Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020 

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020.  

The amendments were adopted January 1, 2022. The impact of adoption of these amendments 
did not have an impact on the business.  

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments 

Clarifies  which  fees  are  included  for  the  purpose  of  performing  the  ‘10  per  cent  test’  for 
derecognition of financial liabilities. 

IFRS 16 Leases  

Removes the illustration of payments from the lessor relating to leasehold improvements.  

The impact of adoption of these improvements did not have an impact on the business. 

t)  New standards and interpretations not yet adopted: 

At  the  date  of  authorization  of  these  financial  statements,  several  new,  but  not  yet  effective, 
Standards and amendments to existing Standards, and Interpretations have been published by 
the IASB. None of these Standards or amendments to existing Standards have been adopted 
early by the Group and it is still to be determined if any will have a material impact on the Group’s 
financial statements.

Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1) 

On  January  23,  2020,  the  IASB  issued  amendments  to  IAS  1  Presentation  of  Financial 
Statements, to clarify the classification of liabilities as current or non-current.  In October 2022, 
the  IASB  issued  Non-current  Liabilities  with  Covenants  (amendments  to  IAS  1)  (the  2022 
amendments),  to  improve  the  information  a  company  provides  about  long-term  debt  with 
covenants.  

The 2020 amendments and the 2022 amendments (collectively “the Amendments”) are effective 
for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. A company 
that applies the 2020 amendments early is required to also apply the 2022 amendments. 

Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments to IAS8) 

On  February  12,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  Definition  of  Accounting  Estimates  (Amendments  to 
IAS8).  The amendments introduce a new definition for accounting estimates, clarifying that they 
are monetary amounts in the financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty. 
The  amendments  also  clarify  the  relationship  between  accounting  policies  and  accounting 
estimates  by  specifying  that  a  company  develops  an  accounting  estimate  to  achieve  the 
objective set out by an accounting policy. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early 
adoption is permitted. 

Disclosure initiative – Accounting Policies (Amendments to IAS 1)  

On  February  12,  2021,  the  IASB  issued  amendments  to  IAS  1  Presentation  of  Financial 
Statements and an update to IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements to help 
companies provide useful accounting policy disclosures.  

The key amendments to IAS 1 include a requirement for companies to disclose their material 
accounting  policies  rather  than  their  significant  accounting  policies;  clarifying  that  accounting 
policies related to immaterial transactions, other events or conditions are themselves immaterial 
and as such need not be disclosed; and clarifying that not all accounting policies that relate to 
material  transactions,  other  events  or  conditions  are  themselves  material  to  a  company’s 
financial statements. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early 
adoption is permitted. 

Deferred  Tax  related  to  Assets  and  Liabilities  arising  from  a  Single  Transaction 
(Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes) 

On May 7, 2021, the IASB issued Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a 
Single Transaction (Amendments to IAS 12).  

The amendments narrow the scope of the initial recognition exemption (IRE) so that it does not 
apply to transactions that give rise to equal and offsetting temporary differences. As a result, 
companies will need to recognize a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax liability for temporary 
differences arising on initial recognition of a lease and a decommissioning provision. 

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Earlier 
adoption is permitted.

All the intangible assets have been externally acquired. Amortization expense of $50,000 (2021 - 
$39,000) was recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as follows: cost of 
sales $12,000 (2021 – $3,000), selling and distribution $25,000 (2021 - $29,000) and general and 
administrative $13,000 (2021 – $7,000). 

Impairment testing for CGUs: 

The  Company has defined its  CGUs  as each  individual legal entity since each location  is largely 
independent  of  the  other  entities  and  each  is  ultimately  responsible  for  sales  generated  in  their 
markets. The Company monitors the performance of each legal entity through the use of profitability 
analysis based on the most recent business plan in place as at December 31, 2022.  

Impairment testing for CGUs containing goodwill: 

The Company performed an impairment test on the goodwill of its UK entity using the value in use 
method,  under  which  a  five-year  present  value  cash  flow  projection  was  completed  using  the 
Hammond  Electronics  Limited  weighted  average  pre-tax  cost  of  capital  of  9.0%.  The  cash  flow 
model also incorporated growth rates in the range of 2% – 4% based on the market location and the 
facility’s  operating  history.  This  was  then  compared  to  the  carrying  value  of  the  facility’s  assets, 
including  goodwill,  to  determine  if  there  was  impairment.  Effective  December  31,  2022  and 
December 31, 2021, the assets, including goodwill of $109,000 (2021 - $114,000), of the Company’s 
wholly owned subsidiary, Hammond Electronics Limited, were tested and no impairment was found.

The Group leases warehouse and factory facilities. These leases typically run for a period of 5 years 
with an option to renew the lease after that date. Lease payments generally are renegotiated every 
five years to reflect current market rates of office and production buildings.  

The Group leases automobiles with a typical lease period of 3 years. The Company provides for a 
guaranteed residual value when the vehicle is turned in. 

The Group’s fleet trucks are generally leased for a five-year term after which they are turned in. The 
lease rates for the trucks are a fixed rate plus a variable charge per kilometer driven. The variable 
charge is excluded from the initial measurement of the lease liability and asset. The variable charge 
is expensed in the month it is incurred. 

The lease liabilities are secured by the related underlying assets. Future minimum lease payments 
at December 31, 2022 were as follows:

Lease payments not recognized as a liability: 

The  Group  has  elected  not  to  recognize  a  lease  liability  for  short  term  leases  (leases  with  an 
expected term of 12 months or less) or for leases of low value assets. Payments made under such 
leases are expensed on a straight-line basis. In addition, certain variable lease payments are not 
permitted to be recognized as lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. 

The expense relating to payments not included in the measurement of the lease liability is as follows:

an  external  consultant’s  remediation  plan,  discounted  for  expected  timing  of  expenditures.  The 
current estimate assumes the containment plan will be completed by 2026. The Glen Ewing Property 
is owned equally as a co-tenant with Hammond Power Solutions Incorporated and any expenses or 
liabilities in respect of the property have been agreed to be shared equally. The contamination did 
not result from the normal operations of the Company. The parties have cooperatively developed a 
remediation  action  plan  and  began  remediation  in  October  2009.  The  Ministry  of  Environment  is 
aware  of  the  remediation  and  the  process  being  used.  The  Company  is  satisfied  that  their 
consultants have provided the best estimate available for the Company’s remaining portion of the 
environmental remediation costs for this site of $225,000 (2021 - $225,000) with $80,000 (2021 - 
$80,000) presented as a current provision.  

The provision for sales returns is based on estimates from historical returns of product. The provision 
reflects the estimated profit margin of the anticipated returns.  

16) Employee future benefits: 

The Company’s net obligation in respect of its current and long-term employee benefits is calculated 
by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in 
the  current  and  prior  periods.  The  terms  of  the  agreements  do  not  require  the  Company  to  fund 
these  obligations  as  they  accumulate.  The  Company  has  accounted  for  these  post-employment 
benefits as defined benefit plans. The benefit plans are broken into two categories: 

a)  Benefit for post-employment health benefits: 

If an employee meets the set criteria and retires between the age of 60 and 65, their health plan 
will continue until age 65. 

b)  Disability health coverage: 

This benefit is for employees who are off work due to a covered disability. Health coverage will 
continue until they are off disability or reach the age of 65, whichever occurs first.  

In determining both the post-employment health benefit and the disability health coverage liabilities 
a 3.5% (2021 – 3.5%) per annum health cost increase and a discount rate of 4.0% (2021 – 4.0%) 
were utilized to determine its present value.  

Assumed healthcare cost trend rates affect the amounts recognized in profit and loss. A 1% change 
in  assumed  healthcare  cost  trend  rates  would  increase  (decrease)  the  aggregate  service  and 
interest  costs  by  $22,100  (2021  -  $21,500).  Changes  in  assumptions  resulted  in  nominal 
gains/losses which have been included in general and administrative expense.

c)  Dividends: 

The following dividends were declared and paid by the Company: 

Cash dividends of $0.06 per Class A subordinate voting share were declared and paid in 2022 
(2021 – $0.04) and cash dividends of $0.06 per Class B common share were declared and paid 
in 2022 (2021 – $0.04).  

Total dividends declared and paid in 2022 were $680,000 (2021 - $453,000). 

19) Commitments: 

The Company has contractual obligations for outstanding capital expenditures of $9,959,000 (2021 
-  $12,523,000).  These  expenditures  are  primarily  for  a  new  facility  and  related  equipment  the 
Company is building in Palmerston, Ontario.  

20) Contingency: 

A statement of claim was issued on June 19, 2013, against the Company with respect to a property 
once held by the Company. The claim alleged that contaminants originating from the property once 
owned  by  the  Company  have  migrated  to  a  nearby,  but  not  adjoining  property  owned  by  the 
claimants. This claim was settled in 2022. The Company agreed to a without costs dismissal of the 
action in exchange for payment to the Company of $112,500. 

A third party statement of claim was issued on March 6, 2019, against the Company with respect to 
an adjacent property to one of our Waterloo facilities. The claim alleges that contaminants originating 
from our property have migrated to the adjoining property owned by the claimants. The amount of 
the claim is estimated at $160,000 to $670,000. Our records do not show any spills of chemicals at 
this  location  and  management  is  unable  to  reasonably  estimate  any  liability  that  may  arise  as  a 
result  of  this  claim.  As  such,  no  amount  has  been  recorded  in  these  condensed  consolidated 
financial statements.

Government subsidy: 

In response to the COVID pandemic a wage subsidy was made available to the  Company for its 
operations  in  Canada  (the  CEWS  program).  If  a  company  met  a  certain  level  of  sales  reduction 
criteria they would be eligible for a wage subsidy for the employees that they kept employed. The 
company met the required criteria to apply for a subsidy of $NIL (2021 - $607,000). The Company 
has recognized this grant as a reduction in related wages and salaries expenses. In the above chart, 
Cost of Sales was reduced by $NIL (2021 - $485,000), Selling and distribution was reduced by $NIL 
(2021 - $103,000), General and administrative expenses was reduced by $NIL (2021 - $19,000). 

24) Management share option plan: 

As at December 31, 2022, the Company has a stock-based compensation plan, which is described 
below. No options were granted through December 31, 2022 or in 2021 and no stock options were 
outstanding as of January 1, 2021, and, accordingly,  no stock-based compensation expense has 
been incurred in either year. 

In 1986, the Company established the management share option plan providing for the granting to 
directors, officers and key employees of the Company options to purchase the Class A subordinate 
voting shares of the Company.  A maximum number of 540,000 Class A subordinate voting shares 
are issuable under the plan.  The exercise price for purchasing Class A subordinate voting shares 
may not be less than the market price of the Class A subordinate voting shares at the date the option 
is granted. 

25) Determination of fair values: 

The carrying values of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities, consisting of cash, trade and other 
accounts receivables, bank indebtedness, trade and other accounts payables approximate their fair 
values due to the relatively short periods to maturity of the instruments. 

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities together with the carrying  amounts shown  in the 
statements of financial position are as follows:

Cash
Trade and other receivables

Liabilities carried at amortized cost

Risk management framework: 

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the oversight of the Group’s risk management 
framework. The Board is responsible for monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. 

The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the 
Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk 
management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions 
and  the  Group’s  activities.  The  Group,  through  its  training  and  management  standards  and

employees understand their roles and obligations. 

The Group’s Audit Committee oversees how management monitors compliance  with the Group’s 
risk  management  policies  and  procedures,  and  reviews  the  adequacy  of  the  risk  management 
framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Group’s Audit Committee is assisted in 
its  oversight  role  by  the  corporate  finance  group.  The  corporate  finance  group  undertakes  both 
regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are 
reported to the Audit Committee.

Credit risk: 

Credit  risk  is  the  risk  of  financial  loss  to  the  Group  if  a  customer  or  counterparty  to  a  financial 
instrument  fails  to  meet  its  contractual  obligations,  and  arises  principally  from  the  Group’s 
receivables from customers. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit 
risk exposure. 

Trade and other receivables: 

The  Group’s  exposure  to  credit risk is influenced  mainly  by the individual characteristics of each 
customer. However, management also considers the demographics of the Group’s customer base, 
including the default risk of the industry and country in which customers operate, as these factors 
may have an influence on credit risk. 

The Group has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analyzed individually 
for  creditworthiness before the Group’s  standard  payment and  delivery terms and conditions  are 
offered.  The  Group’s  review  includes  external  ratings,  when  available,  and  in  some  cases  bank 
references. Purchase limits are established for each customer, which represents the maximum open 
amount  without  requiring  approval  from  management.  Customers  that  fail  to  meet  the  Group’s 
benchmark creditworthiness may transact with the Group only on a prepayment basis. 

In monitoring customer credit risk, customers are grouped according to their credit characteristics, 
including whether they are an individual or legal entity, whether they are a wholesale, retail or end-
user  customer,  geographic  location,  industry,  aging  profile,  maturity  and  existence  of  previous 
financial difficulties. Trade and other receivables relate mainly to the Group’s wholesale customers. 
Customers that are graded as “high risk” are placed on a restricted customer list and monitored by 
the accounts receivable department, and future sales are made on a prepayment basis. 

The Group does not require collateral in respect of trade and other receivables. 

The Group establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts that represents its estimate of expected 
credit losses that could arise from the failure or inability of customers to make payments when due. 
This  allowance  is  determined  based  on  historical  data  of  payment  statistics  for  similar  financial 
assets and historical credit losses, adjusted for forward looking factors, specific to the debtor and 
the economic environment. 

The Company is exposed to financial risk that arises from the credit quality of the entities to which 
it sells products and services.  The Company sells to a variety of companies in a number of different 
industries and geographic areas.  As a result, the requirement for an industry specific or geographic 
reserve is minimal. 

The  carrying  amount  of  financial  assets  represents  the  maximum  credit  exposure  which  was  as 
follows at the reporting date:

Liquidity risk: 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated 
with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s 
approach  to  managing liquidity  is  to  ensure, as far  as possible, that  it  will always have  sufficient 
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring 
unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation.

The Group uses planning tools to identify future cash flow requirements.  

The Group has established a $30,000,000 (2021 – $20,000,000) overdraft facility that is secured 
against inventory and accounts receivable. If drawn upon, interest would be payable at the rate of 
bank prime (2021 - bank prime). The Company had available unused credit facilities in the amount 
of $16,043,000 at December 31, 2022 (2021 - $19,519,000) to meet fluctuations in working capital 
requirements. 

The Group has available a line of credit to finance new equipment purchases of which it has available 
$10,000,000 (2021 - $4,340,000).  

In  2015,  the  Group  successfully  applied  for  and  was  approved  by  the  Federal  Economic 
Development  Agency  for  Southern  Ontario  for  an  interest  free  loan  up  to  $3,461,500  on  eligible 
spending. As at December  31, 2022, the Group  had  received $3,461,500  of  this funding  (2021 - 
$3,461,500).  The  present  value  of  this  funding  of  $2,646,385  was  set  up  as  long  term  debt  and 
$815,115  which  reflects  the  interest  savings  has  been  offset  to  property,  plant  and  equipment. 
Repayment of this loan is over five years and started in January of 2020. As at December 31, 2022 
the present value of the funding is $1,245,000 (2021 – $1,855,591). 

The  interest  free  loan  and  grant  noted  above  are  contingent  on  adding  new  jobs  and  retaining 
existing  jobs  at  its  Guelph,  Ontario  locations.  As  at  December  31,  2022,  the  Group  was  in 
compliance with this requirement. 

The  following  are  the  contractual  maturities  of  financial  liabilities,  including  estimated  interest 
payments and excluding the impact of netting arrangements. It is not expected that the cash flows 
included in the maturity analysis will occur significantly earlier or at materially different amounts.

Market risk: 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest 
rates will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective 
of  market  risk  management  is  to  manage  and  control  market  risk  exposures  within  acceptable 
parameters, while optimizing the return.  

Foreign currency risk: 

The Group has a substantial number of transactions denominated in US dollars and is exposed to 
risk with respect to fluctuations in exchange rates between Canadian and US dollars. The Group 
holds smaller positions in other foreign currencies. The Group does not use derivative instruments 
to  reduce  its exposure  to  foreign  currency  risk.   As a  result,  variations  in  foreign exchange rates 
could cause unanticipated fluctuations in the Group’s operating results.  

The following chart depicts the foreign currency positions.

Long-term  debt  and  lease  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  may  affect  the  amount  of 
principal and interest payments ultimately recorded. 

Sensitivity Analysis: 
An  average  one-cent  decrease  of  the  Canadian  dollar against the US  dollar in  2022  would  have 
increased net product sales by $1,025,000 (2021 - $833,000) and increased income from operations 
by $1,104,000 (2021 - $872,000). Inversely, a one cent increase in the Canadian dollar against the 
US dollar in 2022 would have had the equal but opposite effect. This analysis assumes that all other 
variables remain constant. As noted, the  Company  does deal in other currencies but the  level of 
impact of these currencies would not be significant. 

Interest rate risk: 

Interest rate risk arises from the possibility that the cash flows related to a financial instrument would 
fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Group is exposed to financial risk that 
arises from the interest rate differentials between the market interest rate and the rates on its cash, 
bank indebtedness, and its float rate term loans.  Changes in  variable interest rates could cause 
unanticipated fluctuations in the Group’s operating results.

(tabular amounts (except share amounts) in thousands of Canadian dollars) 

Sensitivity Analysis: 
A  one  percent  increase  in  the  variable  rates  charged  on  ending  2022  bank  indebtedness  would 
increase  annual  interest  expense  by  $144,000  (2021  -  $10,000).  This  analysis  assumes  that  all 
other variables remain constant. Inversely, a one percent decrease in the variable rates charged on 
ending 2022 bank indebtedness would have had the equal but opposite effect. 

Operational risk: 

Operational risk is the risk of direct or indirect loss arising from a wide variety of causes associated 
with  the  Group’s  processes,  personnel,  technology  and  infrastructure,  and  from  external  factors 
other  than  credit,  liquidity  and  market  risks  such  as  those  arising  from  legal  and  regulatory 
requirements and generally accepted standards of corporate behavior.  

The  Group’s  objective  is  to  manage  operational  risk  so  as  to  balance  the  avoidance  of  financial 
losses and  damage to the Group’s reputation  with overall cost effectiveness and to avoid control 
procedures that restrict initiative and creativity. 

The  primary  responsibility  for  the  development  and  implementation  of  controls  to  address 
operational risk is assigned to senior management within each business unit. This responsibility is 
supported by the development of overall Group standards for the management of operational risk in 
the following areas: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

requirements for appropriate segregation of duties, including the independent authorization 
of transactions 

requirements for the reconciliation and monitoring of transactions 

compliance with regulatory and other legal requirements 

documentation of controls and procedures 

requirements for the periodic assessment of operational risks faced, and the adequacy of 
controls and procedures to address the risks identified 

requirements for the reporting of operational losses and proposed remedial action 

development of contingency plans 

training and professional development 

ethical and business standards 

risk mitigation, including insurance when this is effective. 

Compliance with Group standards is supported by a program of periodic reviews undertaken by the 
corporate  finance  group.  The  results  of  the  reviews  are  discussed  with  the  management  of  the 
business unit  to  which  they  relate,  with summaries  submitted to the  Audit Committee and senior 
management of the Group. 

Capital management: 

In order to manage capital, the Group regularly identifies and assesses risks that threaten the ability 
to meet the Company’s capital management objectives, and determines the appropriate strategy to 
mitigate these risks. 

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to: 

•  maintain financial flexibility in order to preserve its ability to meet financial obligations 

• 

deploy capital to provide an appropriate investment return to its shareholders

been  in  compliance  with  its  covenants  through  2021  and  2022.  There  were  no  changes  to  the 
Group’s  approach  to  capital  management  during  2022.  Neither  the  Company,  nor  any  of  its 
subsidiaries, is subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
