Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2025

(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited)

1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Anquiro Ventures Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated in Canada under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act on March 1, 2012 and its head office is located at 595 Howe Street, Suite 303, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2T5.

The Company was formed for the primary purpose of completing an Initial Public Offering ("IPO") on the TSX Venture Exchange ("Exchange") which completed on February 23, 2018, as a Capital Pool Company ("CPC") as defined in Policy 2.4 of the Exchange.

The principal business of the Company will be the identification and evaluation of assets or businesses with a view to completing a Qualifying Transaction ("QT"). The Company has not commenced operations and has no assets other than cash. The Company's continuing operations as intended are dependent upon its ability to identify, evaluate, and negotiate an acquisition, or a business, or an interest therein. Such an acquisition would be subject to regulatory and shareholder approval as required.

The proposed business of the Company, and the completion of a Qualifying Transaction, involves a high degree of risk. There is no assurance that the Company will identify an appropriate business for acquisition or investment, and even if so identified and warranted, it may not be able to finance such an acquisition or investment within the requisite time period. Additional funds will be required to enable the Company to pursue such an initiative, and the Company may be unable to obtain such financing on terms which are satisfactory to it. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the business will be profitable. These factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, the net realizable value of its assets may be materially less than the amounts on its statements of financial position. Such adjustment could be material.

At March 31, 2025, the Company had current liabilities exceeding current assets by $120,426 and accumulated losses of $420,263. The Company's ability to meet its obligations and maintain its current operations is contingent upon successful completion of additional financing arrangements, continued cooperation of creditors and related parties, completing a Qualifying Transaction and generating profitable operations (Note 10).

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

(a) Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the most recent annual financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2024.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the note disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flow have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year.

The financial statements were approved by the board of directors on May 30, 2025.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2025

(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited)

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

(b) Material accounting policy information

The Company has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods presented in these financial statements, except if mentioned otherwise. In addition, the Company adopted Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2). The amendments require the disclosure of "material" rather than "significant", accounting policies. Although the amendments did not result in any changes to the accounting policies themselves, they impacted the accounting policy information disclosed in certain instances.

(c) Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, modified where applicable and are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company's functional currency.

(d) Consolidation

On June 8, 2023, the Company acquired 100% the shares of Anquiro Financial Corp. ("AFC") as described in Notes 3 and 11. As at June 30, 2024, these consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, AFC, from the date of acquisition. During the period ended March 31, 2025, as further described in notes 3, and 11, the Company unwound the acquisition of AFC. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and AFC up to October 17, 2024.

(e) Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. 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 and in any future periods affected. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the recognition of deferred income tax assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Significant areas requiring the use of judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies include the assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and whether there are events or conditions that may give rise to significant uncertainty.

(f) Financial instruments

(i) Classification

The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: at fair value through profit and loss ("FVTPL"), at fair value through other comprehensive income (loss) ("FVTOCI") or at amortized cost. The Company determines the classification of financial assets at initial recognition. The classification of debt instruments is driven by the Company's business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Equity instruments that are held for trading are classified as FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI. Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL (such as instruments held for trading or derivatives) or if the Company has opted to measure them at FVTPL.

Cash is classified as FVTPL; accounts payable and shareholder loan are classified as amortized cost.

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

(ii) Measurement

Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost:

Financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value plus or minus transaction costs, respectively, and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment.

Financial assets and liabilities at FVTPL:

Financial assets and liabilities carried at FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value and transaction costs are expensed in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities held at FVTPL are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss in the period in which they arise.

(iii) Derecognition

Financial assets:

The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity.

Financial liabilities:

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire. The Company also derecognizes a financial liability when the terms of the liability are modified such that the terms and / or cash flows of the modified instrument are substantially different, in which case a new financial liability based on the modified terms is recognized at fair value.

Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in profit or loss.

(g) Loss per share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in earnings of an entity.

In a loss year, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation as the effect would be anti-dilutive. Basic and diluted loss per share are the same for the periods presented.

(h) Income taxes

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.

Deferred tax is recorded using the liability method, providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Temporary differences are not provided for relating to goodwill not deductible for tax purposes, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting or taxable loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future.

The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period. A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized.

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)

(i) Share-based payments

Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and amortized over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is recorded to reserves. The fair value of options is determined using the Black–Scholes Option Pricing Model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. Vesting is determined by the Board of Directors.

(j) Changes in accounting standards

Certain accounting standards or amendments to existing accounting standards that have been issued but have future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements other than note disclosures. The Company has not early adopted these revised standards.

3. ACQUISITION OF ANQUIRO FINANCIAL CORP.

During the year ended June 30, 2023, pursuant to the proposed Qualifying Transaction, as further described in Note 10, the Company acquired AFC on June 8, 2023, a Canadian company incorporated under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act, by way of a share transfer. AFC transferred its one issued and outstanding common share to the Company, which constitutes the acquisition of 100% of AFC. AFC was formed as a special purpose vehicle in connection to the facilitation of the Company's Qualifying Transaction and was controlled by a director of the Company.

The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The fair value of the identifiable net assets of AFC at acquisition date which equaled the carrying values of the assets and liabilities held by AFC are as follows:

-$-
Assets
Cash 11,718
Liabilities
Accounts payable (8,872)
Accrued liabilities (10,500)
Subscriptions received (95,000)
(114,372)
Net transaction cost (102,654)

During the year ended June 30, 2023, in connection to the proposed Qualifying Transaction, the subscriptions received of $95,000 were classified as equity.

The fair value of the net assets of $(102,654) was expensed as a transaction cost in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss during the year ended June 30, 2023.

During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company reclassified the subscriptions received to current liabilities to reflect the nature of the transaction as described further in Note 10. During the period ended March 31, 2025, as further described in Notes 3, and 11, the Company unwound the acquisition of AFC.

7. SHARE CAPITAL (Continued)

Stock options

The Company's stock option plan allows for the granting of options to acquire a number of common shares equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares at the time of the grant. Options granted under the plan will vest at a schedule determined by the board of directors.

During the period ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company had no stock options outstanding.

Share-based payment reserve

The share-based payment reserve records items recognized as stock-based compensation expense until the options or warrants are exercised, at which time the corresponding amount will be transferred to share capital.

During the period ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company did not grant any stock options.

8. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISKS

(a) Fair values

The fair values of cash, accounts payable and shareholder loan approximate their carrying values due to the short-term to maturities of these financial instruments.

(b) Interest rate

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to interest rate risk as it does not have any assets or liabilities that are affected by changes in interest rates.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company's objective in managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient readily available reserves in order to meet its liquidity requirements at any point in time. The Company achieves this by maintaining sufficient cash on hand to meet its financial obligations. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk.

(d) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts. This risk is managed by using major banks that are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company assessed its credit risk as low.

(e) Foreign exchange risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The Company is not exposed to currency risk.

9. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company's capital structure consists of cash and share capital. The Company manages its capital structure, and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to complete a Qualifying Transaction. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company's management to sustain future development of the business. In order to carry out the planned activities and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management since inception. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

10. PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On June 16, 2023, as amended on October 22, 2023, January 31, 2024, May 21, 2024 and October 17, 2024, the Company became party to a Definitive Agreement to complete a Qualifying Transaction "the Proposed Transaction" or "the Agreement" with AFC and Black Pine Resources Corp. ("Black Pine"), a private corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. The Company, Black Pine and AFC entered into a binding merger agreement, as amended, whereby the Company is anticipated to acquire the business of Black Pine. Three of the directors of the Company are also directors and / or officers of Black Pine.

Black Pine was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on October 20, 2017, under the name "Digital Asset Management Corp." On February 23, 2021, Black Pine changed its name to "Black Pine Resources Corp.". Black Pine is a mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. Pursuant to a letter of intent dated April 12, 2022 ("GBR LOI"), as amended, with Great Basin Resources Inc. ("GBR"), Black Pine is entitled to earn an undivided 100% interest in the Sugarloaf Copper Project (the "Sugarloaf Property"), subject to a 2% net smeltery royalty due to GBR and certain other payments due to GBR, as provided in the GBR LOI.

On October 17, 2024, the Company and Black Pine have entered into a termination agreement with AFC, terminating the previously announced transaction pursuant to the second amended and restated merger agreement dated May 21, 2024.

The purchase of AFC required consent from the Exchange, which the Company had not obtained and thus inadvertently contravened the policies of the Exchange. At the request of the Exchange, the Company has agreed to unwind the acquisition of AFC. To that end, the Company has entered into a share purchase agreement with Richard Barnett whereby the Company will sell and Mr. Barnett will purchase the sole outstanding common share of AFC in consideration for the purchase price paid by the Company for such share, being $1.00 (the "Unwinding Transaction"). Pursuant to the Unwinding Transaction, all liabilities of AFC will remain liabilities of AFC and will not be assumed by the Company. During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company reclassified $95,000 of subscriptions received from equity to liabilities as this amount will no longer be settled with the Company's shares.

Subsequent to the completion of the Unwinding Transaction, the Company and Black Pine entered into a merger agreement with 1504671 B.C. Ltd. ("New AcquisitionCo"). This merger agreement features near identical terms (other than (i) the replacement of AFC with New AcquisitionCo and (ii) the revision of the outside date of the Merger Agreement to May 31, 2025 to the previously terminated Original Agreement, pursuant to which the Company and Black Pine are anticipated to complete a three-cornered amalgamation, whereby New AcquisitionCo will amalgamate with Black Pine under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

(Expressed in Canadian dollars - unaudited)

10. PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND SUBSEQUENT EVENT (Continued)

The Proposed Transaction is a Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction as the same parties and their Associates or Affiliates are Control Persons (as such aforementioned capitalized terms are defined in the policies of the Exchange) in both the Company and Black Pine. Furthermore, the Proposed Transaction may be considered a related party transaction (as such term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101) because (a) Ms. Keturah Nathe (President, CEO and a director of the Company) is also a director of Black Pine, Mr. Joe DeVries (a director of the Company) is also a director of Black Pine, and Mr. Richard Barnett (a director of the Company) is also the CFO of Black Pine; and (b) the aggregated holdings of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company and of Black Pine by Principals (as such term is defined in the policies of the Exchange) of the Company exceed 20%.

Subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent referred to herein and in the Merger Agreement, the Company and Black Pine anticipate that the Proposed Transaction will be completed no later than May 31, 2025. Subsequent to the period ended March 31, 2025 the outside date passed and the Company and Black Pine are working towards extending the outside date. There is no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will be completed on the terms proposed herein or at all.

Trading in the common shares of the Company is currently suspended in accordance with the policies of the Exchange and will remain suspended until such time as all required documentation in connection with the Proposed Transaction has been filed with and accepted by the Exchange and permission to resume trading has been obtained from the Exchange.

Concurrent Financing

On November 12, 2024, the Company, AcquisitionCo and Black Pine entered into an amending agreement to amend the Merger Agreement to, inter alia, increase the concurrent financing in connection with the Proposed Transaction (the "Concurrent Financing") and confirm the finder's fee.

Subsequent to the period ended September 30, 2024, and pursuant to the aforementioned amending agreement, the concurrent financing was updated to the following: Black Pine anticipates completing a non-brokered private placement offering of a minimum of 11,000,000 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") to subscribers for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of $1,100,000 at a price per Subscription Receipt of $0.10. The Subscription Receipts will be governed by the Subscription Receipt certificates. A finder's fee of up to 10% of the gross proceeds of the Concurrent Financing will be payable from the escrowed proceeds on or after the date on which the escrowed funds will be released to Black Pine.

On the closing date of the Concurrent Financing, the escrowed proceeds will be delivered to and held by the escrow agent of the Subscription Receipts (the "SR Agent") and invested in an interest bearing account pursuant to the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement.

Each Subscription Receipt unit ("SR Unit") is comprised of one Black Pine common share ("Black Pine Share") and one warrant ("SR Warrant"), with each SR Warrant being exercisable for a period of three years after its issuance to acquire one Black Pine Share at the price per share of $0.20, subject to certain acceleration rights ("SRW Acceleration Right").

At the effective time of the Proposed Transaction, the Black Pine Share and the SR Warrants will be exchanged for common share of the resulting issuer and warrants of the resulting issuer, respectively, with each such warrant being exercisable for a period of three years from the issuance date of the exchanged warrant to acquire one common share of the resulting issuer at the price per share of $0.20, subject to the SRW Acceleration Right.

Furthermore, Black Pine has agreed to be responsible for all costs and charges incurred with respect to the Proposed Transaction.
