Summary of Quarterly Results

Q1 Q4 Q3 Q2 Q1 Q4 Q3 Q2
2021 2020 2020 2020 2020 2019 2019 2019
Net Income (Loss) for the period $(280,660) $(152,040) $(947,138) $(125,741) $(47,669) $(25,829) $(19,033) $(20,397)
Income (Loss) per share $ (0.01) $ (0.00) $ (0.04) $ (0.00) $ (0.00) $ (0.00) $ (0.00) $ (0.00)

During fiscal 2019, the Companies quarterly results were consistent as the Company did not have a property and thus operating expenditures were focused on consulting fees, professional fees, transfer agent and filing fees and interest charges.

Fiscal 2020’s quarterly results have remained consistent from quarter to quarter as the Company continues to increase activity related to financing and investing activities. 2020 Q3 was significantly increased compared to the other periods as a result of stock options issued during the quarter. 2021 Q1 has increased compared to previous periods as a result of stock options being granted in the quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company reported a working capital of $803,263 at March 31, 2021 compared to working capital of $1,496,896 as at December 31, 2020. At March 31, 2021, the Company had cash on hand of $878,575 (December 31, 2020 - $1,564,945).

Current assets excluding cash at March 31, 2021 consisted of receivables of $13,920 which consists of GST receivable (December 31, 2020 - $22,265) and prepaid expenses of $90,389 (December 31, 2020 - $43,310).

Current liabilities at March 31, 2021 consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $179,621 (December 31, 2020 - $133,624).

There can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient financing to meet its future capital requirements or that additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company in the future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not utilize off-balance sheet arrangements.

Transactions with Related Parties

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company paid 1950 Consulting Services Ltd., a Company controlled by an officer and director $22,500 (2020 - $15,000) for consulting services and paid NW Capital Corp. a Company controlled by an officer and director, $Nil (2020 - $2,250) for rent.

During the year end March 31, 2021, the Company paid PBJR Consulting Inc., a Company controlled by an officer and director, $45,000 (2020 - $Nil) for consulting services.

Included in stock based compensation is $74,750 (2020 - $Nil) related to stock options granted to a director.

Included in accounts payable is $12,200 (2020 - $30,866) owing to a director and an officer of the Company.

Proposed Transactions

At the time of this report, the Company is not contemplating any proposed transactions.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Not applicable to Venture Issuers.

EMINENT GOLD CORP. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

For the three months ended March 31, 2021

Changes in Accounting Policies including Initial Adoption

The Company has adopted the following new accounting standard and interpretation:

IFRS 16, Leases (effective January 1, 2019) introduced new requirements for the classification and measurement of leases. Under IFRS 16, a lessee no longer classifies leases as operating or financing and records all leases on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position, unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. The Company has applied a modified retrospective transition approach. The Company does not have any leases, and as a result, this standard had no impact on the Company’s financial statements on adoption.

IFRIC 23, Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments (effective January 1, 2019) provides guidance when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments including, but not limited to, whether uncertain tax treatments should be considered separately; assumptions made about the examination of tax treatments by tax authorities; the determination of taxable profit, tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits, and tax rates; and, the impact of changes in facts and circumstances. This interpretation did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Risk Factors

Exploration-stage mineral exploration companies face a variety of risks and, while unable to eliminate all of them, Eminent aims at managing and reducing such risks as much as possible. Few exploration projects successfully achieve development stage, due to factors that cannot be predicted or anticipated, and even one such factor may result in the economic viability of a project being detrimentally impacted such that it is neither feasible nor practical to proceed. Eminent closely monitors its activities and those factors that could impact them, and employs experienced consultants to assist in its risk management and to make timely adequate decisions. Environmental laws and regulations could also impact the viability of a project. Eminent has ensured that it has complied with these regulations, but there can be changes in legislation outside Eminent’s control that could also add a risk factor to a project.

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these items.

Other Requirements

Summary of Outstanding Share Data as at May 31, 2021:

EMINENT GOLD CORP. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

For the three months ended March 31, 2021

Outlook

The Company may require additional funding for its corporate and overhead expenses in the immediate future, as any increase in corporate activity or material acquisition will require additional financing. Many factors influence the Company’s ability to raise funds, including the health of the capital market and the Company’s track record. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure additional financings in the future at terms that are favourable, or at all.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s business remains mineral property acquisition, exploration and development business and as a result it may be exposed to a number of operational, financial, regulatory and other risks and uncertainties that are typical in the natural resource industry and common to other companies in the exploration and development stage. These risks may not be the only risks faced by the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known by the Company or which are presently considered immaterial could adversely impact the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial performance in future periods.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company’s business, operations, and financial condition, and the market price of the common shares could be materially and adversely affected by the outbreak of epidemics or pandemics or other health crises, including the recent outbreak of COVID-19. To date, there have been a large number of temporary business closures, quarantines, and a general reduction in consumer activity in a number of countries. The outbreak has caused companies and various international jurisdictions to impose travel, gathering and other public health restrictions. While these effects are expected to be temporary, the duration of the various disruptions to businesses locally and internationally and the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Similarly, the Company cannot estimate whether or to what extent this outbreak and the potential financial impact may extend to countries outside of those currently impacted. Such public health crises can result in volatility and disruptions in the supply and demand for precious and base metals, global supply chains and financial markets, as well as declining trade and market sentiment and reduced mobility of people, all of which could affect commodity prices, interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk, share prices and inflation. The risks to the Company of such public health crises also include risks to employee health and safety, a slowdown or temporary suspension of operations in geographic locations impacted by an outbreak, increased labour and fuel costs, regulatory changes, political or economic instabilities or civil unrest. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 will or may impact the Company is uncertain and these factors are beyond the Company’s control; however, it is possible that COVID-19 may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition and the market price of the common shares.

Need for Additional Funding

Further funding may be required by the Company to continue as a going concern. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds. In addition, any future financing may be dilutive to existing shareholders of the Company. Many factors influence the Company’s ability to raise funds, including the health of the capital markets, the climate for mineral exploration investment and the Company’s track record. Actual funding requirements may vary from those planned due to a number of factors, including the acquisition of new projects. Management is continually assessing the Company’s cash needs and potential sources of financing but recognizes there may be some difficulty obtaining such financing due to the current market conditions. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure additional financing in the future at terms that are favourable, or at all.

Share Price Fluctuations

Securities markets have at times in the past experienced a high degree of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies, particularly those considered to be exploration stage companies such as the Company, have experienced wide fluctuations in share prices which have not necessarily been related to their operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects. There can be no assurance that these kinds of share price fluctuations will not occur in the future, and if they do occur, how severe the impact may be on the Company’s ability to raise additional funds through equity issues.

EMINENT GOLD CORP.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

For the three months ended March 31, 2021

Exploration stage risks

Exploration for mineral resources involves a high degree of risk, the cost of conducting programs may be substantial and the likelihood of success is difficult to assess.

Resource exploration and development is a highly speculative business, characterized by a number of significant risks including, but not limited to, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits but also from finding mineral deposits that, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production. Few exploration projects successfully achieve development due to factors that cannot be predicted or anticipated, and even one such factor may result in the economic viability of a project being detrimentally impacted such that it is neither feasible nor practical to proceed. The Company closely monitors its activities and those factors that could negatively impact it and employs experienced consultants and key management to assist in its risk management and to make timely decisions regarding future property expenditures.

Other risks associated with projects in the exploration and development stage which could cause delays or prohibit the progress of the overall project include delays in obtaining required government approvals and permits and the inability to obtain suitable or adequate machinery, equipment, road access, power or labour.

No Known Mineral Reserves or Mineral Resources

There are no known bodies of commercial minerals on the Company’s mineral properties. The exploration programs undertaken and proposed constitute an exploratory search for mineral resources and mineral reserves or programs to qualify identified mineralization as mineral reserves. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its search for mineral resources and mineral reserves.

Metal price risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk. Declines in the market price of gold, base metals and other minerals may adversely affect the Company’s ability to raise capital in order to fund its ongoing operations. Commodity price declines could also reduce the amount the Company would receive on the disposition of any its mineral property interests to a third party.

Operating Hazards and Risks

The Company’s operations are subject to hazards and risks normally associated with the exploration of mineral properties, any of which could cause delays in the progress of the Company’s exploration plans, damage to or destruction of property, loss of life and/or environmental damage. Some of these risks include, but are not limited to, unexpected or unusual geological formations; rock bursts, cave-ins, fires, flooding and earthquakes; unanticipated changes in metallurgical characteristics and mineral recovery, unanticipated ground or water conditions, industrial or labour disputes, hazardous weather conditions, cost overruns, land claims and other unforeseen events may occur. A combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome these risks.

The nature of these risks is such that liabilities might exceed any insurance policy limits, the liabilities and hazards might not be insurable or the Company might not elect to insure itself against such liabilities due to high premium costs or other factors. Such liabilities may have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and operations and could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increased costs and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company.

Environmental risk

The Company seeks to operate within environmental protection standards that meet or exceed existing requirements in the country in which the Company operates. Present or future laws and regulations and third party opposition, however, may affect the Company’s operations. Future environmental costs may increase due to changing requirements or costs associated with exploring, developing, operating and closing of mines. Programs may also be delayed or prohibited in certain areas. The costs of complying with changes in governmental regulations can negatively impact the Company’s financial performance.

Reliance on key personnel

The success of the Company’s operations and activities is dependent to a significant extent on the efforts and abilities of its senior management team, as well as outside contractors, experts and its partners. The loss of one or more members of senior management, key employees, contractors or partners, if not replaced, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial performance.

EMINENT GOLD CORP. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

For the three months ended March 31, 2021

Title to Properties

Although the Company has or will receive title opinions for any material properties in which it has an interest, there is no guarantee that title to such properties will not be challenged or impugned. The Company’s properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers or indigenous land claims and title may be affected by unidentified or unknown defects. Title insurance is generally not available for mineral properties and the Company’s ability to ensure that it has obtained secure claims to individual mineral properties or mining concessions may be constrained. A successful challenge to the Company’s title to a property or to the precise area and location of a property could cause delays or stoppages to the Company’s exploration activities or loss of the Company’s rights to explore, develop and extract any ore on that property without reimbursement to the Company. Any such delays, stoppages or loss of title would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Conflicts of Interest

The Company’s directors and officers may serve as directors or officers, or may be associated with, other reporting companies, or have significant shareholdings in other companies. To the extent that such other companies may participate in business or asset acquisitions, dispositions, or ventures in which the Company may participate, the directors and officers of the Company may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding on terms with respect to the transaction. If a conflict of interest arises, the Company will follow the provisions of the BC Business Corporations Act (“BCBCA”) dealing with conflict of interest. These provisions state that where a director has such a conflict, that director must, at a meeting of the Company’s directors, disclose his or her interest and refrain from voting on the matter unless otherwise permitted by the BCBCA. In accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia, the directors and officers of Eminent are required to act honestly, in good faith, and in the best interest of Eminent.

Substantial Expenditures Are Required

Substantial expenditures are required to establish mineral reserves through drilling and the estimation of mineral reserves or mineral resources in accordance with the CIM Definition Standards. Although significant benefits may be derived from the discovery of a major mineralized deposit, the Company may not discover minerals in sufficient quantities or grades to justify a commercial mining operation and the funds required for development may not be obtained on a timely basis or may not be obtainable on terms acceptable to the Company. Estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources can also be affected by environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties and unusual or unexpected geological formations. In addition, the grades of minerals ultimately mined may differ from those indicated by drilling results. Material changes in mineral reserve or mineral resource estimates, grades, stripping ratios or recovery rates may affect the economic viability of any project.

Inaccurate Estimates

Unless otherwise indicated, mineralization figures presented by the Company in filings with securities regulatory authorities, press releases and other public statements that may be made from time to time, are based upon estimates made by Company personnel and independent geologists. These estimates are inherently imprecise, as they depend upon geological interpretation and statistical inferences drawn from drilling and sampling analysis, which may prove to be unreliable. As a result, there can be no assurance that mineral resource or other mineralization figures or estimates of costs (including initial capital costs and initial capital intensity) and expenses will be accurate, nor that the resource mineralization could be mined or processed profitably.

Governmental Regulation

The Company’s assets and activities are subject to extensive Canadian and US federal, provincial, state, territorial and local laws and regulations governing various matters, including, but not limited to: land access, use and ownership; water use; environmental protection; social consultation and investment; management and use of toxic substances and explosives; rights over and management of natural resources, including minerals and water; prospection, exploration, development and construction of mines, production and reclamation; exports and imports; taxation; mining royalties; restrictions on the movement of capital into and out of the United States (which could impact the Company’s ability to repatriate funds to Canada); importation of equipment and goods; transportation; hiring practices and labour standards by the Company and contractors, as well as occupational health and safety, including mine safety; reporting requirements related to investment, social and environmental impacts, health and safety, and other matters; processes for preventing, controlling or halting artisanal or illegal mining activities; and historic and cultural preservation.

The costs and efforts associated with compliance with laws and regulations are already substantial and future laws and regulations, changes to existing laws and regulations or more stringent application and enforcement of current laws and regulations by governmental authorities, could cause additional expenses, capital expenditures, delays in the development of the Company’s property, and even restrictions on or suspensions of Company operations. Moreover, these laws and regulations may allow governmental authorities and private parties to bring complaints or lawsuits against the Company based upon alleged damage to property and/or injury to persons resulting from the environmental, health and safety impacts of the Company’s past

EMINENT GOLD CORP. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

For the three months ended March 31, 2021

and current operations, or possibly even actions or inaction by parties from whom the Company acquired its property, and could lead to the imposition of substantial financial judgments, fines, penalties or other civil or criminal sanctions.

It is challenging to comply strictly with all of the norms that apply to the Company. The Company retains competent and trained staff, professionals, attorneys and consultants in jurisdictions in which it does business; however, there is no certainty that both it and its contractors will continuously be compliant with all applicable laws and regulations. The failure to comply with all applicable norms could lead to financial restatements, fines, penalties and other material negative impacts on the Company.

Competitive Conditions

The Company will actively compete for resource acquisitions, exploration leases, licenses, concessions, and skilled industry personnel with a substantial number of other mining companies, many of which have significantly greater financial resources than the Company. The Company’s competitors will include major integrated mining companies and numerous other independent mining companies and individual producers and operators, some of which may have greater liquidity, greater access to credit and other financial resources, newer or more efficient equipment, lower cost structures, more effective risk management policies and procedures and/or greater ability than the Company to withstand losses. The Company’s competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new laws or regulations or emerging technologies or devote greater resources to the expansion of their operations than the Company can. In addition, current and potential competitors may make strategic acquisitions or establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties. Competition could adversely affect the Company’s ability to acquire suitable new properties in the future. Competition could also affect the Company’s ability to raise financing to fund the exploration and development of its properties or to hire qualified personnel. The Company may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Political Regulatory Risks

Any changes in government policy may result in changes to laws affecting ownership of assets, exploration policies, monetary policies, taxation, rates of exchange, environmental regulations, labour relations and return of capital. This may affect both the Company’s ability to undertake exploration and development activities in respect of present and future properties in the manner currently contemplated, as well as its ability to continue to explore, develop and operate those properties in which it has an interest or in respect of which it has obtained exploration and development rights to date. The possibility that future governments may adopt substantially different policies, which might extend to expropriation of assets, cannot be ruled out.

Acquisitions and Joint Ventures

The Company will evaluate from time to time opportunities to acquire or enter into joint ventures in respect of mining assets and businesses. These acquisitions and joint ventures may be significant in size, may involve granting rights to third parties, may change the scale of the Company’s business and may expose it to new geographic, political, operating, financial and geological risks. The Company’s success in its acquisition and joint venture activities will depend on its ability to successfully negotiate arrangements, identify suitable acquisition and joint venture candidates and partners, acquire or enter into a joint venture with them on acceptable terms and integrate their operations successfully with those of the Company.

Any acquisitions or joint ventures would be accompanied by risks, such as the difficulty of assimilating the operations and personnel of any acquired companies; the potential disruption of the Company’s ongoing business; the inability of management to maximize the financial and strategic position of the Company through the successful incorporation of acquired assets and businesses or joint ventures; additional expenses associated with amortization of acquired intangible assets; the maintenance of uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies; the impairment of relationships with employees, customers and contractors as a result of any integration of new management personnel; dilution of the Company’s present shareholders or of its interests in its subsidiaries or assets as a result of the issuance of shares to pay for acquisitions or the decision to grant earning or other interests to a joint venture partner; and the potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired assets and businesses. There can be no assurance that the Company would be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with such acquisitions or joint ventures. There may be no right for shareholders to evaluate the merits or risks of any future acquisition or joint venture undertaken except as required by applicable laws and regulations.

Infrastructure

Exploration, development and processing activities depend on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, bridges, power sources and water supply are important elements of infrastructure, which affect access, capital and operating costs. The lack of availability on acceptable terms or the delay in the availability of any one or more of these items could prevent or delay the exploration or development of the Company’s mineral properties. If adequate infrastructure is not available in a timely manner, there can be no assurance that the exploration or development of the Company’s mineral properties will be commenced or completed on a timely basis, if at all. Furthermore, unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of necessary infrastructure could adversely affect our operations. Failure to adequately meet these infrastructure requirements or changes in the cost of such requirements could affect the Company’s ability to carry out exploration and future development operations and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects.

Fluctuations in Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

The Company reports its financial results and maintains its accounts in Canadian dollars. The Company’s operations in the United States make it subject to foreign currency fluctuations and such fluctuations may materially affect the Company’s financial position and results. The Company has not hedged its exposure to currency fluctuations.

Claims and Legal Proceedings

The Company and/or its directors and officers may be subject to a variety of civil or other legal proceedings, with or without merit. From time to time in the ordinary course of its business, the Company may become involved in various legal proceedings, including commercial, employment and other litigation and claims, as well as governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources and cause the Company to incur significant expenses. Furthermore, because litigation is inherently unpredictable, the results of any such actions may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition.

Going Concern Risk

The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to raise sufficient funds to pay for its ongoing operating expenditures and meet its liabilities for the ensuing year involves significant judgment based on historical experience and other factors, including expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company’s future operations are dependent upon the identification and successful completion of equity or debt financings and the achievement of profitable operations at an indeterminate time in the future. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing equity or debt financings or in achieving profitability.

Information Systems and Cyber Security

The Company’s operations depend on information technology (“IT”) systems. These IT systems could be subject to network disruptions caused by a variety of sources, including computer viruses, security breaches and cyber-attacks, as well as disruptions resulting from incidents such as cable cuts, damage to physical plants, natural disasters, terrorism, fire, power loss, vandalism and theft. The Company’s operations also depend on the timely maintenance, upgrade and replacement of networks, equipment, IT systems and software, as well as pre-emptive expenses to mitigate the risks of failures. Any of these and other events could result in IT system failures, delays and/or increase in capital expenses. The failure of IT systems or a component of information systems could, depending on the nature of any such failure, adversely impact the Company’s reputation and results of operations.

Although to date the Company has not experienced any material losses relating to cyber-attacks or other information security breaches, there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur such losses in the future. The Company’s risk and exposure to these matters cannot be fully mitigated because of, among other things, the evolving nature of these threats. As a result, cyber security and the continued development and enhancement of controls, processes and practices designed to protect systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access remain a priority. As cyber threats continue to evolve, the Company may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance protective measures or to investigate and remediate any security vulnerabilities.
