This summary of quarterly results should be read in conjunction with the condensed interim financial statements and related notes included in the Company's financial statements as at September 30, 2021.

Discussion of Operations for the Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2021

Loss and comprehensive loss for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021 were $153,462 and $160,022 compared to $19,576 and $53,963 for the same periods in 2020. The decrease of $133,886 and $106,059 respectively were primarily due to an increase in professional fees of $151,451 and $133,363 and a decrease in stock-based compensation and listing fees of $16,517 and $27,277.

Transactions with Related Parties

Related parties include the Board of Directors, the president, the chief financial officer, close family members and enterprises which are controlled by these individuals as well as persons performing similar functions.

During the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021, a law firm of which an officer, director and shareholder of the Company is a partner, provided legal services in the amount of $321 and $12,763 (September 30, 2020 - $28,489 and $49,327). As at September 30, 2021, accounts payable and accrued liabilities include an amount of $35,522 (September 30, 2020 - $48,489) related to legal services.

Outstanding Share Data

At the date of this MD&A, the following is a description of the outstanding equity securities and exercisable securities previously issued by the Company:

Authorized Description of Securities
Voting or equity securities Unlimited common shares 7,065,000 common shares
issued and outstanding (2,065,000 deposited in escrow)
Options issuances and Up to a maximum of 10% of 565,200 options to acquire

Financial Instruments and Risk Factors

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, investment in short-term GIC and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments. It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency, credit or liquidity risks arising from its financial instruments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As at September 30 2021, Meteorite had net working capital of $342,829 (September 30, 2020 - $566,865) comprised of cash, an investment in a short-term GIC and a loan receivable offset by accounts payable and accrued liabilities. As a result, the Company is not exposed to significant liquidity risk, and has

  • 5 -

sufficient funds to meet its ongoing obligations and to meet its objective of completing a Qualifying Transaction. Meteorite does not generate revenue from operations and any significant improvements in working capital would result from the issuance of share capital.

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the potential of a Qualifying Transaction. 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 Company defines capital to include its working capital position and total shareholders’ equity.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021. In accordance with the TSX-V Policy 2.4 and until completion of a Qualifying Transaction, the Company will be subject to constraints related to the use of the funds obtained through the sale of its common shares.

Contractual Obligations

The Company has no long-term debt outstanding or contractual obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Financial Risk Factors

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial statements are summarized below.

Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and investment in short-term GIC and the loan receivable. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash and holding its GIC with a major financial institution. The Company is exposed to credit risk on the loan receivable and as a result of the overdue payments by the counterparty as well as other factors considered by management, an expected credit loss of $57,975 was charged to earnings in the 2020 year.

Liquidity risk

The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at September 30, 2021, the Company’s current assets exceeded its current liabilities. In order to meet future obligations as they become due, the Company may need to access funding from the issuance of equity securities, the exercise of stock options or through other sources. The Company’s access to financing is uncertain and there is no assurance of continued access to equity funding .

  • 6 -

Market risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as foreign exchange rates and commodity and equity prices.

a) Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash, receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities that are denominated in a foreign currency. As at September 30, 2021, the Company did not have any accounts in foreign currencies and considers foreign currency risk insignificant.

b) Price risk

Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. The Company closely monitors individual equity movements and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

Subsequent Event

COVID-19 Health Crisis risk

The outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID-19”, has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. 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. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company in future periods.

Critical Accounting policies and Estimates updated

Critical accounting estimates are those estimates that have a high degree of uncertainty and for which changes in those estimates could materially impact the Company's results.

Management used the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of stock options and warrants issued. The estimated life of the stock options and warrants at the grant date is based on the legal life of the equity instruments and the expected exercise pattern of the holders. The expected volatility used to calculate the grant date fair value is estimated taking into account the historical volatility of similar companies’ share prices over the expected term of the stock options and warrants granted.

Actual results could differ from those estimates.
