Fox River Resources Corporation (“Fox River” or the “Company”) was incorporated pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act under the name “9508309 Canada Inc.” on November 12, 2015. Articles of amendment were subsequently filed on December 7, 2015 to change the name of the Company to “Fox River Resources Corporation”. The registered office of the Company is located at 350 Bay Street, Suite 700, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2S6. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary: Baltic Resources Inc. ("Baltic").
The Company's business plan includes acquiring, exploring, evaluating and developing mineral and natural resources properties such as its wholly-owned Martison Phosphate Project.
In March 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. The situation is dynamic and the ultimate duration and magnitude of the impact on the economy, capital markets and the Company's financial position cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company is monitoring developments and will adapt its business plans accordingly. The actual and threatened spread of COVID-19 globally could adversely impact the Company's ability to carry out its plans and raise capital. To date, the Company's operations have been minimally impacted and the Company continues to be able to plan and carry out activities.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION 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") on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements as required by IFRS. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2020.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business, and on a historical cost basis except for the revaluation of certain financial instruments.

The Board of Directors approved the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and authorized their issuance on March 16, 2021.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(a) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include money market instruments and Guaranteed Investment Certificates ("GICs") which are readily convertible into cash or have maturities at the date of purchase of less than ninety days.
| **January ** | 31, 2021 | October | 31, 2020 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash | $ | 76,503 | $ | 54,378 |
| Moneymarket instruments & GICs | 438,707 | 538,288 | ||
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 515,210 | $ | 592,666 |
Restricted cash consists of GIC collateral of $5,000 for a corporate credit card.
(b) Changes in accounting policies
The Company did not adopt any new accounting policies during the period ended January 31, 2021.
(c) Critical accounting estimates and significant judgements
The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make judgements and estimates the affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The financial statements include judgements and estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain, and actual outcomes could differ. The impacts of such judgements and estimates are pervasive throughout the financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and also in future periods when the revision affects both current and future periods. The preparation of these financial statements required the following critical accounting estimates and significant judgements:
-
(i) The fair value of stock options issued is subject to the limitations of the Black Scholes option pricing model that incorporates market data and involves uncertainty in estimates used by management in the assumptions. Because the Black Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the volatility of share prices, changes in input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
-
(ii) The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company.
4. SHARE CAPITAL
The authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares with no par value and an unlimited number of non-voting special shares. As at January 31, 2021, the Company had 41,278,527 common shares issued and outstanding.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
(a) Mining leases
The Company has three 21-year mining leases with the Province of Ontario which grant the Company surface and mining rights to the Project. One of the mining leases commenced on August 1, 2002 and the remaining two on May 1, 2011. The aggregate annual payment for the three leases is estimated to be approximately $13,000.
11. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company's capital structure consists of shareholder's equity, which amounted to $ 558,156 on January 31, 2021. 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, 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. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. Neither the Company nor its subsidiary is subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the period ended January 31, 2021.
12. FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS
The Company's risk exposures and the impact on the Company's financial instruments are summarized below:
(a) Credit risk
The Company's cash balance of $ 76,503 is held by a Schedule I Canadian Chartered Bank. The Company's cash equivalents balance of $ 438,707 primarily consists of investment savings accounts and/or guaranteed investment certificates issued by Schedule I Canadian Chartered Banks. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk arising from operations. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to financial instruments is remote.
(b) Liquidity risk
The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to fund its liabilities as they become due. All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 60 days and are subject to normal trade terms. As at January 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $ 515,210 to settle current liabilities of $ 17,282 .
(c) Interest rate risk
The Company has cash balances and no interest-bearing debt. Interest rate risk is remote.
(d) Market price risk
The Company is indirectly exposed to price risk with respect to the price of phosphate products. The Company closely monitors commodity prices to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company. Price risk is remote since the Company is not a producing entity.
10
Fox River Resources Corporation Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Three months ended January 31, 2021 (unaudited)
12. FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS (continued)
(e) Marketable securities price risk
The Company is exposed to equity securities price risk because of the marketable securities held by the Company. The Company's marketable securities are not part of its core operations, and accordingly, gains and losses from these investments are not representative of the Company's performance. As at January 31, 2021, the impact of a 10% increase or decrease in the share prices of the marketable securities would have resulted in an increase or decrease of $ 4,512 that would have been included in net loss and comprehensive loss.
