FARADAY COPPER CORP. Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian dollars, except where noted)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

Faraday Copper Corp. (formerly CopperBank Resources Corp.) (the “Company”) was incorporated on October 21, 2014 under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 2400, 745 Thurlow Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 0C5. The Company’s head office and principal address is located at 250 - 200 Burrard St., Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3L6. The Company’s shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange and OTCQX under the symbol “FDY” and “CPPKF”, respectively, and its principal business is the acquisition and development of resource properties.

Going concern

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “Interim Financial Statements”) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared based on accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company is a resource exploration stage company, which does not generate any revenue and has been relying mainly on equity-based financing to fund its operations. The Company has incurred a net loss of $5,499,835 as at March 31, 2024 ((March 31, 2023 – $7,167,959). The Company will require additional financing either through equity or debt financing, sale of assets, joint venture arrangements, or a combination thereof to meet its administrative costs and to continue to explore and develop its resource properties. There is no assurance that sufficient future funding will be available on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company. As such, there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These Interim financial Statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, and any such adjustments may be material.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

a) Statement of compliance

These Interim Financial Statements were approved by the Board of Directors and authorized for issue on May 2, 2024.

These Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 , Interim Financial Reporting . Certain disclosures included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”) have been condensed or omitted, and accordingly, these Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (“Annual Financial Statements”).

b) Basis of presentation

These Interim financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for those financial instruments which have been classified at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”).

c) Functional and presentation currency

The Interim Financial Statements are presented in Canadian dollars (“Canadian dollar” or “CAD”), which is also the functional currency, except as otherwise noted. The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which an entity operates. References to “CAD” are to Canadian dollars and references to “USD” or “US$” are to United States dollars.

d) Basis of consolidation

These Interim financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are included in the financial statements from the date control commences until the date control ceases. Control exists where the parent entity has power over the investee and is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

5. RESOURCE PROPERTIES

Copper Creek Resource Properties, Arizona

The Company acquired 100% of the Copper Creek project through the acquisition of Redhawk Resources Inc. (“Redhawk”) for a value of $4,955,328 in 2018. All permits of this resource property are in good standing. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there have been no additions to acquisition costs (2023 - $nil).

• D & G Mining Agreement

In November 2005, Redhawk entered into a lease-to-purchase agreement with a third party for additional property within the Copper Creek boundaries. Redhawk has the option to purchase the property for US$3,000,000 until May 2033.

Redhawk paid US$80,000 in both 2006 and 2007 and US$100,000 annually from 2008 to 2017. Starting May 2018, Redhawk is required to make two payments per year of US$25,000 due by May 31 and by November 30, until the end of May 2033.

Commencing January 1, 2022, 50% of the annual payments made prior to exercising the option to purchase will be applied against the purchase price in the event that Redhawk exercises its property purchase option.

• Freeport Mineral Corporation Agreement

In April 2007, Redhawk entered into a purchase agreement with Freeport Mineral Corporation (“Freeport”) to acquire additional mining claims within the Copper Creek boundaries. The additional mining claims are subject to a 1% net smelter return royalty.

On May 30, 2018, Redhawk entered into an amendment to the Fourth Workout Agreement with Freeport. The substance of the amended agreement is a conversion of interest and principal owing to Freeport into production decision royalty payments. The total will be US$3,000,000 paid in six equal annual instalments of US$500,000 per annum. The payments are contingent upon Redhawk or successors achieving a defined commercial production of minerals. As a result of this amendment, no liabilities in connection with this promissory note has been recorded as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Contact Copper Property, Nevada

The Company owns a 100% interest in the Contact Copper property located in Elko County, Nevada. All permits of this resource property are in good standing. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there have been no additions to acquisition costs (2023 - $nil).

10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to several financial and market risks, including credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. The Company may, or may not, establish from time-to-time active policies to manage these risks. The Company does not currently have in place any active hedging or derivative trading policies to manage these risks since the Company’s management does not believe that the current size, scale and pattern of cash flow of its operations would warrant such hedging activities.

Fair value of financial instruments

The fair value hierarchy established by IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement has three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value described as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due to related parties are equivalent to their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.

The financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company mitigates its exposure to credit loss associated with cash and cash equivalents by placing its cash and cash equivalents in major financial institutions. As at March 31, 2024, the Company had cash equivalents of $7,724,498 in term deposits (December 31, 2023 - $11,832,227) that are redeemable within 365 days and bear interest up to 5.9%. Interest income on term deposits during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $71,456 (March 31, 2023 - $177,544).

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may be unable to meet its financial obligations as they fall due or that it will be required to meet them at excessive cost. The Company reviews its working capital position regularly to ensure there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account the Company’s holdings of cash. The Company’s cash is invested in business accounts, which are available on demand. The Company manages its liquidity risk mainly through raising funds from private placements and amounts from related parties. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within 90 days of March 31, 2024 and due to related parties has no specific terms of repayment.

The Company's operating cash requirements are continuously monitored and adjusted as input variables change. As these variables change, liquidity risks may necessitate the need for the Company to pursue equity issuances, obtain project or debt financing, or enter into joint arrangements. There is no assurance that the necessary financing will be available in a timely manner.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company is exposed to the risk that the value of financial instruments will change due to movements in market interest rates. As at March 31, 2024, the Company did not have debt instruments exposed to variable interest rate.

Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company are not denominated in its functional currency. The Company does not manage currency risk through hedging or other currency management tools.
