1 Nature of operations and going concern

IMV Inc. (the “Corporation” or “IMV”) is, through its 100% owned subsidiaries, a clinical stage company committed to developing a new class of cancer immunotherapies that are well-tolerated and efficacious while preserving patients’ quality of life. The Corporation is developing novel cancer therapies based on DPX, its versatile immune-educating technology platform (“DPX platform” or “DPX”), that drives a specific, robust, well-tolerated and persistent anti-tumor immune response, potentially offering long-lasting benefit to patients with solid or blood cancers. IMV’s lead compound, maveropepimut-S (“MVP-S”, formerly known as “DPX-Survivac”) is currently being evaluated in a range of oncology applications including neoadjuvant and checkpoint combination settings. MVP-S demonstrated clinical benefit in patients with difficult-to-treat cancers; and safety and tolerability have been seen in more than 350 patients. MVP-S, with and without with low dose cyclophosphamide used as an immune modulator, is being evaluated in multiple phase 2 clinical trials across 6 different cancer indications with and without Merck’s Keytruda®. The Corporation has one reportable and geographic segment. Incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act and domiciled in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada the shares of the Corporation are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “IMV”. The Corporation’s principal place of business is 130 Eileen Stubbs Avenue, Suite 19, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada and it also has corporate offices in Cambridge, MA and Quebec, QC.

These financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due. Since the Corporation’s inception, the Corporation’s operations have been financed through the sale of shares, issuance of debt, revenue from subcontracts, interest income on funds available for investment, government assistance and income tax credits. The Corporation has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $143,000 as at September 30, 2021.

The ability of the Corporation to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional financing through equity and non-dilutive funding and partnerships. There can be no assurance that the Corporation will have sufficient capital to fund its ongoing operations, develop or commercialize any products without future financings. These material uncertainties cast substantial doubt as to the Corporation’s ability to meet its obligations as they come due and, accordingly, the appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. The Corporation is currently pursuing financing alternatives that may include equity, debt, and non-dilutive financing alternatives including co-development through potential collaborations, strategic partnerships or other transactions with third parties, and merger and acquisition opportunities. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If the Corporation is unable to obtain additional financing when required, the Corporation may have to substantially reduce or eliminate planned expenditures or the Corporation may be unable to continue operations.

The Corporation's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to fund its research and development programs and defend its patent rights. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statements of financial position classifications that would be necessary if the Corporation were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material.

1 Nature of operations and going concern (continued)

An outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, identified as “COVID-19”, was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. To date, COVID-19 has not had a material impact on the Corporation’s financial condition, liquidity or longer-term strategic development and commercialization plans. The extent to which COVID-19 may cause more significant disruptions to IMV’s business and greater impacts to results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the duration and severity of outbreaks, including potential future waves or cycles, and the effectiveness of actions to contain and treat COVID-19. The Corporation cannot predict the duration, scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, including to ongoing and planned clinical studies and regulatory approval prospects. Further prolonged shutdowns or other business interruptions could result in material and negative effects to the Corporation’s ability to conduct its business in the manner and on the timelines currently planned, which could have a material adverse impact on IMV’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, and the Corporation will continue to monitor the effects of COVID-19 on its business.

2 Basis of presentation

The Corporation prepares its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standards (IAS) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting as set out in the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada Handbook - Accounting Part I, which incorporates International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on November 10, 2021.

Functional and presentation currency

Effective January 1, 2021, the Corporation has adopted the United States dollar ("USD") as its functional and presentation currency. Prior to this date, the functional and presentation currency was the Canadian dollar ("CAD"). The change in the functional currency from the CAD to the USD was made to more closely reflect the primary economic environment in which the Corporation currently operates. As a result of the advancement of the Corporation’s development programs, the Corporation has incurred and anticipates incurring the majority of future operating costs including research and development costs denominated mainly in USD. In addition, these costs will be financed from USD proceeds received from At-the-Market distribution agreements (“ATM”) executed in 2020. The Corporation also anticipates that potential future sales revenues and financings will be primarily denominated in USD. As such, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are measured in USD. On January 1, 2021, the change in functional currency resulted in the assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2020 being translated in USD using the exchange rate in effect on that date, and equity transactions were translated at historical rates. The change in functional currency was applied prospectively.

The change in presentation currency was applied retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 - Accounting Policies, changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, and therefore, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in USD, together with the comparative information as at December 31, 2020, and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2020. For comparative purposes, historical consolidated financial statements were recast in USD by translating assets and liabilities at the closing rate in effect at the end of the respective period, revenues, expenses and cash flows at the average rate in effect for the

respective periods and equity transactions at historical rates. Any exchange difference resulting from the translation was included in accumulated other comprehensive loss presented in shareholders’ equity.

3 Significant accounting policies, judgments and estimation uncertainty

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same policies and methods as the annual audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2020, except for the change in functional and presentation currency described in note 2 above. Refer to note 4 of the Corporation’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 for more information on accounting policies and methods applied.

4 Government grants and assistance

The Corporation is evaluating all applicable government relief programs. Notably, in response to the negative economic impact of COVID-19, the Government of Canada, in collaboration with the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (“NRC IRAP”), announced the Innovation Assistance Program (“IAP”) program in April 2020. IAP provides a wage subsidy on eligible remuneration, subject to limits per employee, to eligible employers pursuing technology driven innovation who are not eligible for funding under the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy. In 2020, the Corporation qualified for this subsidy from the April 1, 2020 effective date through to June 23, 2020, and has, accordingly, recognized $434 of IAP during the year ended December 31, 2020, in government assistance on the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

In July 2020, the Corporation qualified for $1,871 in project funding from Next Generation Manufacturing Canada (“NGen”) to support the rapid development of DPX-COVID-19. Under this program, NGen will reimburse up to 50% of eligible project expenses. The Corporation received advances of $1,532 from NGen in 2020 related to this funding and as at September 30, 2021, these advances have been fully recognized in government assistance on the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss and the remaining assistance of $339 will be reimbursed as eligible expenditures are incurred.

In August 2020, the Corporation qualified for COVID-19 project funding from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (“ACOA”). ACOA’s contribution is an interest free government loan with a maximum contribution of $746 conditionally repayable based on a percentage of revenue only from resulting COVID-19 vaccine revenue. The loan was initially recorded at its fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost in long-term debt on the consolidated statements of financial position. As at September 30, 2021, there is $79 in receivables related to this ACOA funding.

In May 2020, the Corporation qualified for $271 in NRC IRAP funding toward the development of its COVID-19 vaccine candidate, DPX-COVID-19. Under this program, NRC IRAP will reimburse up to 80% of eligible project salaries and 50% of eligible contractor costs. In July 2020, the Corporation qualified to receive an additional $194 in funding under the terms of this contribution agreement, resulting in a maximum contribution of $465. The Corporation fully recognized this funding in 2020.

In October 2020, the Corporation qualified for an additional $4,069 in project funding from NRC IRAP, to support the continuation of clinical development for IMV’s DPX-COVID-19 vaccine candidate. Under this program, NRC IRAP will reimburse up to 100% of eligible project salaries and 75% of eligible contractor and

5 Long-term debt (continued)

Certain ACOA loans and the Province loan require approval by ACOA or the Minister for the Province before the Corporation can pay management fees, bonuses, dividends or other distributions, or before there is any change of ownership of the Corporation. The Province loan requires the Corporation to obtain the written consent of the Province prior to the sale, disposal or abandonment of possession of the intellectual property of the Corporation or its subsidiary. If during the term of the Province loan, the head office, research and development facilities, or production facilities of the Corporation are moved from the Province, the Corporation is required to repay 40% of the outstanding principal of the loan.

In September 2021, the Corporation amended its loan agreement with the Province. Previously, the maturity date of the loan was December 1, 2025. The Corporation shall now start repaying the balance of the principal amount on the first day of July 2023, by making the remaining 54 monthly principal payments of CAD$83 plus interest from July 2023 to December 2027. The annual interest rate remains at the Province’s cost of funds plus 1%.

In accounting for this change, the Corporation determined, based on industry risk, its own credit risk and the interest rate environment, that the effective interest rate of the loan of 11% remains appropriate. The difference between the carrying value of the loan before the amendment and after the amendment of $420 has been recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as government assistance.

The Province loan requires certain early repayments if the Corporation’s subsidiary, or the Corporation on a consolidated basis, has cash flow from operations in excess of CAD$1,500. The Province loan also requires repayment of the loan under certain circumstances, such as changes of control, sale or liquidation of the Corporation or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Corporation.

The Corporation is in compliance with its debt covenants.

6 Lease Obligation

On July 26, 2021 the Corporation signed a lease for 3 years for corporate office space in Boston, Massachusetts and recognised a right of use asset of $730 and an associated lease obligation of $713.

The fair values of stock options are estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. As at September 30, 2021, 1,430,635 stock options (2020 - 395,850) with a weighted average exercise price of CAD$3.30 (2020 -CAD$5.10) and a term of ten years (2020 - five years), were granted to employees and consultants. The expected volatility of these stock options was determined using historical volatility rates and the expected life was determined using the weighted average life of past options issued. The value of these stock options has been estimated at $2,688 (2020 - $871), which is a weighted average grant date value per option of $1.88 (2020 -$2.20), using the Black-Scholes valuation model and the following weighted average assumptions:

10 Financial instruments (continued)

Assets and liabilities, such as commodity taxes, that are not contractual and that arise as a result of statutory requirements imposed by governments, do not meet the definition of financial assets or financial liabilities and are, therefore, excluded from amounts receivable and accounts payable.

Fair value of items, which are short-term in nature, have been deemed to approximate their carrying value. The above noted fair values, presented for information only, reflect conditions that existed only as at September 30, 2021, and do not necessarily reflect future value or amounts which the Corporation might receive if it were to sell some or all of its assets to a willing buyer in a free and open market.

The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the expected interest rates for similar borrowings by the Corporation at the consolidated statements of financial position dates. For the periods presented, the fair value is estimated to be equal to the carrying amount.
