Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Loop Industries, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries and joint venture (collectively, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The balance sheet information as at February 28, 2019 is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2019, which is included in Item 8 of the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 8, 2019. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the three months ended May 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 28, 2020.
