Europacific Metals Inc. (formely Goldplay Mining Inc.) Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (Unaudited - expressed in Canadian dollars)

1. Nature of operations and going concern

Europacific Metals Inc. (formerly Goldplay Mining Inc.) (the “Company” or “Europacific”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on June 16, 2017, and its principal business activity is acquiring and exploring mineral properties. The Company’s registered place of business is located at 650 - 1021 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 0C3, Canada. The Company is in the startup stage of operations and does not yet have any revenue-generating activities. Europacific has one subsidiary, EVX Portugal, Unipessoal, Lda (“EVX Portugal”), a private Portuguese company. Europacifc owns 70% of EVX Portugal. The Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) under the symbol “EUP”. Europacific is also listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “9FY” and OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "AUCCF".

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis with the assumption that the Company will 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 incurred significant operating losses since inception, including $383,029 during the six months period ended June 30, 2023 (June 30, 2022 - $ $611,519), resulting in a deficit of $3,997,727 at June 30, 2023. The Company will require additional financing to continue operations and pursue its projects. While the Company has been successful in obtaining funding in the past through the issuance of additional equity, there is no assurance that such funding will be available in the future. An inability to raise additional funds would adversely impact the future assessment of the Company as a going concern. These factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is dependent upon its ability to finance its operations and exploration programs through financing activities that may include issuances of additional debt or equity securities. The recoverability of the carrying value of accounts receivable and exploration and evaluation assets and, ultimately, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise financing to complete exploration on a mineral property, the outcome of which is uncertain. The consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments to amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations. Such adjustments could be material.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and the related adverse public health developments have adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets, leading to a global economic downturn. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID- 19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions. To date COVID-19 has not had a material impact on the Company’s operations but may impact the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing to support exploration activities.

3. Risk management and financial instruments

Financial instruments are agreements between two parties that give rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. The Company classifies its financial instruments as follows: cash is classified as FVTPL; accounts receivable (excluding taxes receivable) are classified as amortized cost; and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as amortized cost. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair values due to their short term to maturity.

Capital management

The Company does not generate cash flows from operations. The Company’s primary source of funds comes from the issuance of share capital and loans or advances from its related parties. The Company does not use other sources of financing that require fixed payments of interest and principal due to lack of cash flow from current operations and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company defines its capital as shareholders’ equity (deficiency). Capital requirements are driven by the Company’s general operations. To effectively manage the Company’s capital requirements, the Company monitors expenses and overhead to ensure costs and commitments are being paid. There were no changes to the Company’s capital management approach during the period ended June 30, 2023.

Management of financial risk

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

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 asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The Company’s financial instruments classified as level 1 in the fair value hierarchy are cash, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due from associate. The carrying values approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The types of risk exposure and the Company’s methods of managing the risk remain consistent and are as follows:

The Company’s risk exposure and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Credit risk

Credit losses are measured using a present value and probability-weighted model that considers all reasonable and supportable information available without undue cost or effort along with the information available concerning past defaults, current conditions and forecasts at the reporting date. IFRS 9 requires the recognition of 12 month expected credit losses (the portion of lifetime expected credit losses from default events that are expected within 12 months of the reporting date) if credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition (stage 1), and lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments for which the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition (stage 2) or which are credit impaired (stage 3). There are no expected credit losses with respect to the Company’s financial instruments held at amortized cost.

  1. Risk management and financial Instruments (continued)

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk. As at June 30, 2023, the Company is not exposed to significant market risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to attempt to ensure that it will have sufficient cash or credit available to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities, and by maintaining its lending arrangement with a related party. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.

All of the liabilities presented as accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within 90 days of June 30, 2023.

Categories of financial assets and financial liabilities

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments are classified into the following categories:

Financial

120,889
111,639

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held of $ 39,503 (December 31, 2022 - $137,995) and redeemable guaranteed investment certificates totaling $375,000 (December 31, 2022 - $750,000). The current annual interest rate earned on the guaranteed investment certificates is 4.20% (December 31,2022 – 4.20%).

4. Share Capital

(a) Authorized

The Company’s authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares without par value.

(b) Reconciliation of changes in share capital

On April 11, 2022, Europacific completed a private placement financing and issued 1,000,000 common shares for total proceeds of $150,000 ($0.15 per share). No compensation was paid in connection with this financing.

4. Share Capital (continued)

  • c) Stock Option Plan

On June 20, 2023, the Company implemented a new 10% rolling stock option plan. The total number of common shares of the Company reserved for issuance under the stock option plan cannot exceed 10% of the number of common shares of the Company that are issued and outstanding on each applicable date of grant for any stock option.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model in order to calculate a value for share options issued to officers, directors and consultants. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the use of estimates and assumptions, including expected volatility rates. As the Company has a short trading history on stock exchange, the expected volatility is based on volatility percentages used historically by comparable listed companies. Changes in the underlying assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model could materially affect the fair value estimates.

Stock options transactions during the year ended December 31, 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023 were as follows:

EVX Portugal

On April 15, 2021, the Company finalized the acquisition of 70% of EVX Portugal, a private based Portuguese company who has the legal rights to an exploration license application with the Portugal Government to the Borba 2 exploration property (the “Exploration Application”), covering approximately 230 square kilometres in the Alentejo region in Southern Portugal. On October 28, 2021, the Exploration Application was approved by the Portuguese government. Europacific, through its subsidiary, EVX Portugal, entered into an exploration/concession agreement with the Portuguese government in relation to the Borba 2 property.

On the acquisition date, EVX Portugal had net assets of approximately $NIL, as such, for the purpose of purchase price allocation, the entire amount ($17,994) paid by Europacific to acquire the 70% interest in EVX Portugal was recorded as the acquisition cost on Europacific’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, part of the Exploration and evaluation assets. As per the purchase agreement, when the exploration license to Borba 2 was granted by the Portuguese government, Europacific paid an additional cash of $45,686 and issued common shares valued at $20,000 to the sellers. Both amounts recorded as the acquisition cost on Europacific’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, part of the Exploration and evaluation assets. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been recorded as an asset acquisition as EVX Portugal did not meet the definition of a business, as defined in IFRS 3 Business Combinations .

On April 25, 2023, the Company and European Electric Meals Inc entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company will purchase the 30% interest that European Electric Metals Inc has in EVX Portugal for $50,000 and 700,000 common shares of the Company. The transaction was approved by the TSX-V on July 24, 2023.

Scottie Gold Project

On August 19, 2022 the Company signed an Option Agreement with Scottie Resources Corp. (“Scottie”), a company engaged in the exploration and evaluation of gold and silver properties located in the “Golden Triangle” of British Columbia, to purchase an working interest in Scottie’s exploration properties (the "Option").

Under the terms of the agreement, Goldplay can acquire up to 3.75% interest in the Scottie’s properties by incurring up to $1,500,000 in flow through eligible exploration expenses until December 31, 2022. If the exploration expenses incurred amount to less than $1,500,000, Goldplay’s earned interest in the Scottie’s properties will be reduced proportionally.

Following the exercise of the Option, Goldplay will have the right (the “Put Right”) to require Scottie to repurchase the interest earned by Goldplay by paying cash, at a price calculated by dividing the total exploration expenditures incurred by Goldplay by 1.71. Following the exercise of the Option, Scottie will have the right (the “Call Right”) to repurchase the interest earned by Goldplay by paying cash, at a price calculated by dividing the total exploration expenditures incurred by Goldplay by 1.71.

In the event the Put Right or the Call Right is exercised, Scottie may, in its sole discretion, satisfy up to $300,000 of the price for the repurchase of Goldplay’s interest by issuing Goldplay common shares in the capital of Scottie.

The Company fulfilled its expenditure commitment by incurring a total of $1,580,000 flow-through eligible expenditures and exercised the option to acquire the working interest in the Scottie’s properties.

In order to make cash available for its Portuguese projects, which are seen as having a higher potential by Company, on November 9, 2022, the Company exercised the Put Right and resold the working interest to Scottie for a cash payment of $900,000.

Scottie West Property Option

On November 22, 2020, the Company entered into a definitive agreement with Roughrider to acquire a 70% interest in the Scottie West Property, located in the “Golden Triangle” in Northwestern British Columbia.
