Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements For the Nine Months Ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 (Unaudited) (Expressed in Canadian dollars)
FLOW METALS CORP.
1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
Flow Metals Corp. (“Flow Metals” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) with 100 common shares issued to its initial and sole shareholder, Go Metals Corp. (“Go Metals”). The Company’s registered office is located at Suite 810 – 789 West Pender Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 1H2, Canada.
The Company entered into a Plan of Arrangement (the “Arrangement”) with Go Metals whereby the Company would own all of Go Metals’ interest in the New Brenda Property (Note 4). As consideration for the New Brenda Property, the Company issued 9,767,234 common shares to Go Metals, which would then be distributed to the shareholders of Go Metals pro-rata based on their relative shareholdings of Go Metals. Following the Arrangement, the Company would be a junior mineral exploration company focused on copper and gold exploration projects in Canada.
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be unable to realize the carrying value of its assets and to meet its liabilities as they become due. As at April 30, 2020, the Company has not generated any revenues from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $201,494. The Company expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to generate future cash flows or obtain additional financing. Management is of the opinion that sufficient working capital will be obtained from external financing to meet the Company’s liabilities and commitments as they become due, although there is a risk that additional financing will not be available on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company. These financial statements do not reflect any adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Since March 2020, several measures have been implemented in Canada and the rest of the world in response to the increased impact from novel coronavirus (COVID-19). The Company continues to operate its business at this time. While the impact of COVID-19 is expected to be temporary, the current circumstances are dynamic and the impacts of COVID-19 on business operations cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company anticipates this could have an adverse impact on its business, results of operations, financial position and cash flows in 2020.
2. Basis of Presentation
- (a) Statement of Compliance
These interim financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).
The condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements as at and for the year ended July 31, 2019.

FLOW METALS CORP.
2. Basis of Presentation (continued)
- (b) Basis of Measurement
The accounting policies followed in these condensed interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Company’s most recent annual financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2019.
These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies set out in Note 3.
- (c) Functional and Presentation Currency
The functional currency of a company is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates. The presentation currency for a company is the currency in which the company chooses to present its financial statements. These financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s presentation and functional currency.
3. Significant Accounting Policies
- (a) Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the period. Although management uses historical experience and its best knowledge of the amount, events or actions to form the basis for judgments and estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.
The most significant accounts that require estimates as the basis for determining the stated amounts include recognition of deferred income tax amounts and provision for restoration, rehabilitation and environmental costs.
Critical judgments exercised in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are as follows:
Determination of functional currency
The Company determines the functional currency through an analysis of several indicators such as expenses and cash flow, financing activities, retention of operating cash flows, and frequency of transactions with the reporting entity.
Income taxes
In assessing the probability of realizing income tax assets, management makes estimates related to expectations of future taxable income, applicable tax opportunities, expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences and the likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities. In making its assessments, management gives additional weight to positive and negative evidence that can be objectively verified.

FLOW METALS CORP.
3. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(b) New Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 Leases (“IFRS 16”). IFRS 16 establishes principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases, with the objective of ensuring that lessees and lessors provide relevant information that faithfully represents those transactions. IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor continues to classify its leases as operating leases or finance leases, and to account for those two types of leases differently. However, lessees are no longer classifying leases as either operating leases or finance leases as it is required by IAS 17. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. The adoption of IFRS 16 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
4. Plan of Arrangement
Under the terms of the Arrangement, in consideration of the New Brenda Property, the Company would issue to Go Metals 9,767,234 common shares (the “Flow Metals Shares”) based on one Flow Metals Share being issued for every six issued and outstanding Go Metals common shares (“Go Metals Shares”) (Note 6). As a step in the Arrangement, Go Metals distributed the Flow Metals Shares to its registered shareholders by way of a return of paid-up capital, and each registered shareholder would receive one Flow Metals Share for every six Go Metals Shares held (Note 1). On September 10, 2018, the B.C. Supreme Court approved the Arrangement effective for September 17, 2018. On September 17, 2018, the Company issued 9,767,234 common shares valued at $326,000 to Go Metals under the terms of the Arrangement.
As a result of the Arrangement, outstanding warrants and options to purchase Go Metals Shares would be exercisable to acquire Flow Metals Shares as well as Go Metals Shares on the basis that the holder would receive, upon exercise, one Flow Metals Share for every six Go Metals Shares so acquired.
5. Mineral Properties
The Company’s mineral property interests are comprised of the following properties:
| New Brenda | Others | **Total ** | |

8. Financial Instruments (continued)
(b) Fair Values
The Company has classified fair value measurements of its financial instruments using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements as follows:
-
Level 1: Valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
Level 2: Valuations based on directly or indirectly observable inputs in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted interest or currency exchange rates; and
-
Level 3: Valuations based on significant inputs that are not derived from observable market data, such as discounted cash flow methodologies based on internal cash flow forecasts.
-
As at April 30, 2020, the fair values of accounts payable and due to related parties approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments.
(c) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company currently settles its financial obligations out of cash. The ability to do this relies on the Company raising equity financing in a timely manner and by maintaining sufficient cash in excess of anticipated needs. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.
(d) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
The Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk at April 30, 2020.
(e) Price Risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity prices. The Company’s ability to raise capital to fund exploration and development activities is subject to risks associated with fluctuations in the market price of commodities. The Company is not exposed to any significant price risk at April 30, 2020.
(f) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Financial assets and liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company does not hold any financial liabilities with variable interest rates.

8. Financial Instruments (continued)
- (g) Foreign currency exchange rate risk
The Company currently has no significant operations denominated in foreign currencies. Management believes there is no significant foreign currency exchange rate risk.
9. Capital Management
The Company defines its capital as cash and equity comprised of issued share capital and deficit. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the acquisition and exploration and development of mineral properties. 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. The properties in which the Company currently has an interest are in the exploration stage. As such, the Company has historically relied on the equity markets to fund its activities. In addition, the Company is dependent upon external financings to fund activities. In order to carry out planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company will need to raise additional funds. The Company will continue to assess new properties and seek to acquire an interest in additional properties if it feels there is sufficient geologic or economic potential and if it has adequate financial resources to do so. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.
The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements as at April 30, 2020.
10. Segmented Information
The Company operates in one reportable operating segment, being the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in Canada. As the operations comprise a single reporting segment, amounts disclosed also represent segment amounts.

The Company closed a non-brokered private placement, by issuing 3,700,000 units at $0.05 per unit for gross proceeds of $185,000.
