KALO GOLD HOLDINGS CORP. NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2021 AND MAY 31, 2020
(expressed in Canadian Dollars) (unaudited)
1. Nature of Business
Kalo Gold Holdings Corp. (“Kalo” or the “Company”), formerly E36 Capital Corp., was incorporated under the Business Corporation Act (British Columbia) on March 6, 2019. On February 25, 2021, the Company changed its name from E36 Capital Corp. to Kalo Gold Holdings Corp. The Company’s common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “KALO”. Kalo is a mineral exploration company focused on the Vatu Aurum gold project on Fiji's north island, Vanua Levu. The Company holds two mineral exploration licenses covering over 36,700 hectares of land and on trend with many of the largest gold deposits in the world in the Southwest Pacific Ring of Fire.
The registered office of the Company is located at Suite 1500 - 1055 W Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 4N7. The head office of the Company is located at Suite 1430, 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 2V6.
Reverse Takeover
On February 25, 2021, the Company completed a reverse takeover transaction pursuant to which it acquired Kalo Gold Corp. (“KGC”), a company incorporated on June 8, 2020 under the Business Corporation Act of the Province of British Columbia.
On August 6, 2020, as part of a corporation reorganization, KGC completed a reverse takeover transaction pursuant to which it acquired Aloki Mining Limited (“Aloki”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, on December 8, 2009. Aloki’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Kalo Exploration Pte Limited, is a limited liability company formed under the laws of Fiji, holds the license related to the Vatu Aurum Gold Project (Note 6), and is the operator of all related mineral exploration activities.
2. Continuance of Operations and Going Concern
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of operations.
As at May 31, 2021, the Company had not advanced its exploration and evaluation assets to commercial production and is not able to finance day-to-day activities through operations. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $11,171,821 and working capital of $1,424,736 as at May 31, 2021, and the management of the Company cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the future, management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favorable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the successful results from its mineral property exploration activities and its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds from and/or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations.
The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management intends to finance mineral property acquisition, exploration and general administration costs over the next twelve months from proceeds of private placements of its common shares and by receiving contributions from its shareholders.

3. COVID-19 Impact assessment
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, potentially leading to an economic downturn.
Fiji has been under COVID-19 inter-island travel restrictions since mid-April 2021. Drilling in Qiriyaga Hill and Vuinubu Ridge, on the Vatu Aurum gold project on Fiji's north island, Vanua Levu, will resume when restrictions on inter-island travels are lifted to allow the Company’s drillers to return to site. Meantime, the Company will continue with the review of surface and core geology and expand soil sampling in Qiriyaga Zone, mapping of Mouta following the completion of soil sampling and visit to the other prospects. There is no material impact on the Company’s operations and consolidated financial statements from the COVID19 pandemic.
4. Basis of Preparation and Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”), has issued by the IASB. Accordingly, certain information normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, as issued by the IFRS has been omitted or condensed. The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2020.
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair values. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. The accounting policies set out in Note 5 have been applied consistently by the Company during the periods presented.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value, and are presented in Canadian Dollars except where otherwise indicated.
Where fair value is used to measure assets and liabilities in preparing these financial statements, it is estimated at the price at which an orderly transaction to sell the asset or to transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. Fair values are determined from inputs that are classified within the fair value hierarchy defined under IFRS as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly
Level 3 – Inputs for the asset or liability that are unobservable
5. Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s accounting policies are the same as those applied in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year-ended August 31, 2020. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2020.

6. Reverse Acquisition
On February 25, 2021, Kalo and KGC completed a share exchange agreement, whereby Kalo acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of KGC by issuing to former shareholders of KGC 6,178,575 common shares as the company (the “Acquisition”).
For accounting purposes, the Reverse Take Over (“RTO”) transaction is considered to be an acquisition outside the scope of IFRS 3 Business Combinations since Kalo, prior to the RTO did not constitute a business. The RTO is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based payments whereby KGC is deemed to have issued shares to acquire net assets of Kalo. As a result of the RTO, the statement of financial position has been adjusted for the elimination of Kalo’s share capital, contributed surplus and accumulated deficit within shareholders’ equity.
The accounting for the RTO results in the following:
-
(i) The consolidated financial statements of the combined entities are issued under the legal parent, Kalo, but are considered a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of the legal subsidiary, KGC.
-
(ii) Since KGC is deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes, its assets and liabilities are included in the consolidated financial statements at their historical carrying values.
The allocation of the consideration transferred is subject to change and is summarized as follows:
| Purchase Price | |
|---|---|
| 6,178,575 common shares of Kalo | $ 1,235,715 |
| 600,000 stock options of Kalo | 108,964 |
