Kanadario Gold Inc. Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2020 (Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Kanadario Gold Inc. (the “Company”) is an exploration stage company incorporated on November 23, 2017, under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada. Its principal business activity is the acquisition, exploration and evaluation of mineral properties located in the province of Quebec, Canada. The Company’s head office and principal business address is 1680 – 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 3L6. The Company’s registered and records office is 400 – 725 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V7Y 1G5.
On October 22, 2019, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”). The Company’s common shares are traded on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “KANA”.
2. GOING CONCERN
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.
The Company’s ability to continue its operations and to realize assets at their carrying values is dependent upon its ability to fund its existing acquisition and exploration commitments on its exploration and evaluation projects when they come due, which would cease to exist if the Company decides to terminate its commitments, and to cover its operating costs. The Company may be able to generate working capital to fund its operations by the sale of its exploration and evaluation projects or raising additional capital through equity markets. However, there is no assurance it will be able to raise funds in the future. These material uncertainties cast significant doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed interim financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying condensed interim financial statements.
If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these condensed interim financial statements then adjustments may be necessary in the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the statement of financial position classifications used. Such adjustments could be material.
3. BASIS OF PREPARATION
- a) Statement of compliance
The condensed interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 Interim Financial Reporting .
The condensed interim financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Company’s October 31, 2019 audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
These condensed interim financial statements were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on March 23, 2020.

Kanadario Gold Inc. Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2020 (Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
3. BASIS OF PREPARATION (Continued)
- b) Basis of measurement
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair value, as explained in the significant accounting policies (note 4 of the audited financial statements for year ended October 31, 2019). These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared under the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared, for all periods presented, following the same accounting policies and methods of computation as described in Note 4 to the audited financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019, except for the following new accounting standard adopted during the period:
IFRS 16 Leases
Initial adoption
On December 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16, which specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is twelve months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with IFRS 16’s approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, IAS 17 Leases . The standard was issued in January 2016 and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019.
The Company has elected to apply IFRS 16 using a modified retrospective approach, which does not require restatement of prior period financial information. Modified retrospective application recognizes the cumulative effect of IFRS 16 as an adjustment to opening deficit at December 1, 2019 and applies the standard prospectively. The Company has determined that at December 1, 2019, adoption of IFRS 16 will not result in the recognition of a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset nor a lease obligation.
Ongoing recognition and measurement
On the date that the leased asset becomes available for use, the Company recognizes a ROU asset and a corresponding lease obligation. Interest expense associated with the lease obligation is charged to the statement of income/loss over the lease period with a corresponding increase to the lease obligation. The lease obligation is reduced as payments are made against the principal portion of the lease. The ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. Depreciation of the ROU asset is recognized in depreciation expense.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
7
Kanadario Gold Inc. Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2020 (Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (Continued)
The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in comprehensive income/loss in the year of the change, if the change affects that year only, or in the year of the change and future years, if the change affects both.
Critical judgments in applying accounting policies
Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities recognized in the condensed interim financial statements within the next fiscal year are discussed below.
a) Impairment of exploration and evaluation assets
The application of the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditures and impairment of the capitalized expenditures requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. If, after expenditure is capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in profit or loss in the year the new information becomes available.
- b) Title to mineral property interests
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.
c) Income taxes
Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognizes liabilities and contingencies for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Company’s current understanding of the tax law. For matters where it is probable that an adjustment will be made, the Company records its best estimate of the tax liability, including the related interest and penalties in the current tax provision. Management believes they have adequately provided for the probable outcome of these matters; however, the final outcome may result in a materially different outcome than the amount included in the tax liabilities.
In addition, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which a deductible temporary difference can be utilized. This is deemed to be the case when there are sufficient taxable temporary differences relating to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity that are expected to reverse in the same year as the expected reversal of the deductible temporary difference, or in years into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward. However, utilization of the tax losses also depends on the ability of the taxable entity to satisfy certain tests at the time the losses are recouped.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (Continued)
- d) Going concern risk assessment
The assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern requires significant judgment. The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, as disclosed in note 2.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The following are key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustments to the condensed interim financial statements.
- a) Decommissioning liabilities
Rehabilitation provisions are created based on the Company’s internal estimates. Assumptions, based on the current economic environment, have been made that management believes are a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the future liability. These estimates take into account any material changes to the assumptions that occur when reviewed regularly by management. Estimates are reviewed annually and are based on current regulatory requirements. Significant changes in estimates of contamination, restoration standards and techniques will result in changes to provisions from year to year. Actual rehabilitation costs will ultimately depend on future market prices for the rehabilitation costs, which will reflect the market condition at the time the rehabilitation costs are actually incurred.
The final cost of the currently recognized rehabilitation provisions may be higher or lower than currently provided for. As at January 31, 2020, the Company has no known rehabilitation requirements, and accordingly, no provision has been made.
- b) Fair value of stock options granted
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the stock options granted during the year. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The model requires management to make estimates that are subjective and may not be representative of actual results. Changes in assumptions can materially affect estimates of fair values.
6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments are agreements between two parties that result in promises to pay or receive cash or equity instruments. The Company classifies its financial instruments as follows: cash is classified as fair value through profit or loss; receivables, as amortized cost; and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as amortized cost. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values due to their short term to maturity.
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial asset measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy:
| January | 31, | 2020 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash | $ | 572,815 | $ | - | $ | - | $572,815 |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash | $ | 778,986 | $ | - | $ | - | $778,986 |
The Company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:
-
Credit risk;
-
Liquidity risk; and
-
Market risk.
-
a) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash, by placing it at major Canadian financial institutions. The Company has minimal credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at January 31, 2020 is on cash of $572,815 (October 31, 2019 - $778,986). Receivables of $5,928 (October 31, 2019 - $3,815) is owing from the Canada Revenue Agency.
b) 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’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquid funds to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The contractual financial liabilities of the Company as of January 31, 2020 equal $21,373 (October 31, 2019 - $70,467). All of the liabilities presented as accounts payable are due within 30 days of the reporting date.
c) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates and interest rates, will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return on capital.
-
i) Currency risk – The Company has no funds held in a foreign currency, and as a result, is not exposed to significant currency risk on its financial instruments at period-end.
-
ii) Interest rate risk – Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. Interest earned on cash is at nominal interest rates, and therefore, the Company does not consider interest rate risk to be significant. The Company has no interestbearing financial liabilities.
-
iii) Other price risk – Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk. The Company is not exposed to significant other price risk.

Kanadario Gold Inc. Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2020 (Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
- d) Capital management
The Company considers its capital to be comprised of shareholders’ equity.
The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares. Although the Company has been successful at raising funds in the past through the issuance of share capital, it is uncertain whether it will continue this method of financing due to the current difficult market conditions.
In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions.
Management reviews the capital structure on a regular basis to ensure that the above objectives are met. There have been no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the three months ended January 31, 2020. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
7. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS
Cameron Lake Project
On June 1, 2018, the Company entered into a mineral property acquisition agreement to acquire a 100% interest in mineral claims located in the Cameron Lake area in the province of Quebec.
Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid $50,000 during the current period and issued 1,000,000 common shares (issued and valued at $50,000) of the Company during the period ended October 31, 2018.
The property is subject to a 2% net smelter return royalty, of which the Company may repurchase one-half (1%) for $1,000,000.

9. SHARE CAPITAL (Continued)
- c) Warrants (continued)
The following warrants were outstanding and exercisable:
| Weighted Average | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Remaining Contractual | |||
| Expiry Date | Life in Years | Exercise Price | January 31, 2020 |
| December 27, 2020 | 0.91 | $ 0.15 | 1,000,000 |
| January 30, 2021 | 1.00 | $ 0.19 | 2,900,000 |
| October 22, 2021 | 1.73 | $ 0.15 | 170,000 |
| 1.01 | 4,070,000 |
The Company applies the fair value method using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accounting for its finder’s warrants granted. The fair value of each stock option granted was calculated using the following weighted average assumptions:
| Three Months Ended | Year Ended | |
|---|---|---|
| January 31, 2020 | October 31, 2019 | |
| Expected life (years) | N/A | 2.00 |
| Risk-free interest rate | N/A | 1.62% |
| Annualized volatility | N/A | 129% |
| Dividend yield | N/A | N/A |
| Stock price at grant date | N/A | $ 0.15 |
| Exercise price | N/A | $ 0.15 |
| Weighted averagegrant date fair value | N/A | $0.10 |
Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions regarding volatility. The Company has used historical volatility and the volatility of a comparable company to estimate the volatility of the share price.

The Company applies the fair value method using the Black-Scholes option pricing model in accounting for its stock options granted. Accordingly, no share-based payments were recognized during the three months ended January 31, 2020 (year ended October 31, 2019 - $48,583).
The fair value of each stock option granted was calculated using the following weighted average assumptions:
| Three Months Ended | Year Ended | |
|---|---|---|
| January 31, 2020 | October 31, 2019 | |
| Expected life (years) | N/A | 5.00 |
| Risk-free interest rate | N/A | 1.55% |
| Annualized volatility | N/A | 202% |
| Dividend yield | N/A | N/A |
| Stock price at grant date | N/A | $ 0.10 |
| Exercise price | N/A | $ 0.15 |
| Weighted averagegrant date fair value | N/A | $0.10 |
Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions regarding volatility. The Company has used historical volatility and the volatility of a comparable company to estimate the volatility of the share price.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
In early March 2020, there was a global outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) that has resulted in changes in global supply and demand of certain mineral and energy products. These changes, including a potential economic downturn and any potential resulting direct and indirect negative impact to the Company cannot be determined, but they could have a prospective material impact to the Company’s project exploration activities, cash flows and liquidity.
