1. Nature of business

FSD Pharma Inc. ("FSD" or the "Company") is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to building a portfolio of innovative assets and biotech solutions for the treatment of challenging neurodegenerative, inflammatory and metabolic disorders and alcohol misuse disorders with drug candidates in different stages of development. Through its wholly- owned subsidiary, Lucid Psycheceuticals Inc. ("Lucid"), FSD is focused on the research and development of its lead compound, Lucid-MS (formerly Lucid-21-302) ("Lucid-MS"). Lucid-MS is a patented new chemical entity shown to prevent and reverse myelin degradation, the underlying mechanism of multiple sclerosis, in preclinical models. FSD is also focused on the research and development of UNBUZZD , a proprietary formulation of natural ingredients, vitamins, and minerals to help with liver and brain function for the purposes of quickly relieving individuals from the effects of alcohol consumption. FSD maintains a portfolio of strategic investments through its wholly-owned subsidiary, FSD Strategic Investments Inc., which represent loans secured by residential or commercial property.

The Company's registered office is located at 199 Bay Street, Suite 4000, Toronto, Ontario, M5L 1A9. The Company's shares are listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol "HUGE".

On July 31, 2023, the Company entered into an exclusive intellectual property license agreement (the "License Agreement") with Celly Nutrition Corp. ("Celly"). The License Agreement provides Celly access to proprietary information for the purposes of consumer product development and marketing. The License Agreement grants Celly the rights to UNBUZZD , a proprietary formulation of natural ingredients, vitamins, and minerals to help with liver and brain function for the purposes of potentially quickly relieving from the effects of alcohol consumption, such as inebriation, and restoring normal lifestyle. The License Agreement also grants Celly the rights to the trademarks UNBUZZD and ALCOHOLDEATH . In exchange, FSD Pharma received 200,000,000 common shares in the capital of Celly following a 2:1 share-split and an anti-dilution Warrant Certificate that entitles FSD to purchase up to 25% of the common shares deemed outstanding less the 200,000,000 common shares issued under the License Agreement and from time to time as a result of any partial exercise of the warrant. FSD Pharma is also entitled to certain license fees and royalties under the License Agreement. Through the License Agreement, FSD acquired 34.66% of Celly. On July 31, 2023, the Company and Celly entered into a loan agreement for gross proceeds of C$1,000,000. The loan was funded on August 1, 2023 and accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Interest is payable annually and the loan matures on July 31, 2026. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of Celly as of September 30, 2023 and the results of operations and cash flows for the period commencing on July 31, 2023, being the date on which FSD obtained control of Celly (Note 2(c)) .

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are comprised of the financial results of the Company and its subsidiaries, which are the entities over which the Company has control. An investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and can affect those returns through its power over the investee.

The Company has the following subsidiaries:

September 30, 2023 and 2022

Non-controlling interests ("NCI") represent ownership interests in consolidated subsidiaries by parties that are not shareholders of the Company. They are shown as a component of total equity in the consolidated statements of financial position, and the share of income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is shown as a component of net income (loss) in the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Changes in the parent company's ownership that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions.

2. Basis of presentation

[a] Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements ("financial statements') were prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those used in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") have been omitted or condensed. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

These financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on November 14, 2023.

[b] Functional currency and presentation currency

The financial statements of each company within the consolidated group are measured using their functional currency, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which an entity operates. The Company's functional currency is the United States dollar and the functional currencies of its subsidiaries are as follows:

[c] Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, consistent with those disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and described in these financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Disclosure of interests in other entities

To assess the investment in Celly, judgment was required to determine if the Company has significant influence or control of Celly. The Company considered the relevant guidance in IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements, IAS 24 - Related Party Disclosures and IAS - 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.

September 30, 2023 and 2022

Judgment is applied in determining when the Company controls an investment even if the Company holds less than a majority of the investee's voting rights (the existence of de facto control). The Company concluded it has control of Celly even though the Company only holds 34.66% of the voting rights. The Company concluded it has control of Celly as the Company, together with persons or entities considered to be de facto agents of the Company, hold a combined 59.62% of the voting rights of Celly. In addition, key management personnel of the Company hold two of the three board of director positions of Celly (Note 20). The assessment of control is performed on a continuous basis. The Company determined that it obtained control of Celly on July 31, 2023, and control was maintained at all times from July 31, 2023, through September 30, 2023. Celly is significantly dependent on the Company as a result of the License Agreement. The NCI component of Celly is included as a separate component in equity (Note 14).

New standards, amendments and interpretations recently adopted by the Company

IAS 1, Presentation of financial statements ("IAS 1")

In January 2020, the IASB issued Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1). The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the consolidated statements of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current. The amendments include clarifying the classification requirements for debt a company might settle by converting it into equity.

The amendments effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024, with earlier application permitted. The Company early adopted these amendments effective January 1, 2023. The impact of adopting these amendments on the Company's financial statements was not significant.

IAS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors ("IAS 8")

In February 2021, the IASB issued Definition of Accounting Estimates, which amends IAS 8. The amendment will require the disclosure of material accounting policy information rather than disclosing significant accounting policies and clarifies how to distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are "monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty". The amendment provides clarification to help entities to distinguish between accounting policies and accounting estimates.

The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The impact of adopting these amendments on the Company's financial statements was not significant.

IAS 12, Income Taxes ("IAS 12")

In May 2021, the IASB issued Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a single transaction (Amendments to IAS 12). The amendment narrows the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it does not apply to transactions that give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences. As a result, companies will need to recognize a deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability for temporary differences arising on initial recognition of transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023 and are to be applied retrospectively. The impact of adopting these amendments on the Company's financial statements was not significant.

New standards, amendments and interpretations not yet adopted by the Company

IFRS 16 - Leases ("IFRS 16")

In September 2022, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 16, Leases, which add to requirements explaining how a company accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Earlier application is permitted.
