ETHOS GOLD CORP. Notes to the Condensed interim consolidated financial statements For the Six Months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Ethos Gold Corp. (the “Company” or “Ethos”) was incorporated on March 12, 2007 under the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. In 2009, it began trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) as a Tier 2 company under the symbol ECC. Its registered office is located at 1430 – 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 2V6. The Company’s principal business activities are the identification, exploration and development of economically viable mineral properties.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining additional financing and if required through the issuance of debt or equity. There is a risk that additional financing will not be available on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company. These financial statements do not reflect the adjustments or reclassifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to continue operations in the normal course of business.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CONSOLIDATION
Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) for interim information, specifically International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”) in effect at June 30,2021 and the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the most recent annual financial statements of the Company. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures normally provided in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for fair presentation have been included in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the Six months ended June 30, 2021(including comparatives) have been prepared by management, reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 27, 2021.
Basis of Preparation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for assets classified as fair value through profit or loss which has been measured at fair value.
Basis of Consolidation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its 100% owned Canadian subsidiary 1088151 B.C. Ltd., and its 100% owned Mexican subsidiary Compañía Minera Roca Dorada, SA de CV (“Roca Dorada”). Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company controls a subsidiary when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over its subsidiary. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidated.
ETHOS GOLD CORP. Notes to the Condensed interim consolidated financial statements For the Six Months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. These financial statements include estimates that, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such 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 future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are noted below with further details of the assumptions contained in the relevant note.
The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company as discussed in Note 1.
The critical estimates and judgments applied in the preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2021are consistent with those applied and disclosed in note 3 to the Company's audited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
c) Foreign currency translation
The functional currency of Ethos and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the Company using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate in effect at the financial statement date. Exchange gains or losses arising from these translations are recognized in profit or loss for the reporting period.

ETHOS GOLD CORP. Notes to the Condensed interim consolidated financial statements For the Six Months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) - Unaudited
a) Pine Pass Project, British Columbia
On July 31, 2018, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in three vanadium projects (Pine Pass, Ursula and Tunnel) in north eastern British Columbia. The Company can earn a 100% interest in the three projects by making the following cash payments and share issuances:
| Cash | Shares | |
|---|---|---|
| Within five days of TSX Venture acceptance | $80,000 (paid) | 200,000 (issued) |
| On the first anniversary | $120,000 | 400,000 |
| On the second anniversary | $160,000 | 600,000 |
| On the third anniversary | $240,000 | 800,000 |
| On the fourth anniversary | $400,000 | 1,000,000 |
If the Company completes the 100% acquisition of the three properties by making the above cash payments and share issuances the Company will grant to the vendors a 2.0% NSR royalty on all three projects, of which half can be repurchased at any time by the Company by paying the vendors $1,500,000.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, the company did not renew the Tunnel project.
On June 20, 2019, the area in which the Pine Pass Project is located became subject to a moratorium on resource development (the “Moratorium”) imposed by the Province of British Columbia in connection with caribou protection strategies.
On July 31, 2019, the Company entered in an amended option agreement (the “Addendum”) with the vendors whereby the previous cash payments and share issuances are suspended indefinitely, pending the lifting of the Moratorium. The Moratorium will be deemed to have been lifted when the Company is no longer restricted by the Moratorium from carrying out exploration and development activities on the Pine Pass Project (the “Reinstatement Date”). Per the Addendum, to maintain the option agreement in good standing, the Company must make the following cash payments and share issuances:
| Cash | Shares | |
|---|---|---|
| Within five days of TSX Venture acceptance of the Addendum | $30,000 (paid) | 100,000 (issued) |
| On July 31, 2020 (the “Second Interim Payment”) | $30,000 (paid) | 100,000 (issued) |
| If the Reinstatement Date falls after July31,2020 | $60,000* | 200,000* |
- In the event the Moratorium is lifted, the final interim cash payment of $60,000 and the issuance of 200,000 shares will be credited towards the first anniversary payments under the original agreement and the remainder of the cash payments and share issuances will be due annually on the Reinstatement Date, as per the original agreement.

15. MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to pursue its objectives. The Company measures its capital as its shareholders’ equity. The Company’s primary source of capital is the issuance of equity.
The Company manages and adjusts its capital structure whenever changes in economic conditions occur. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may seek additional funding.
The Company may require additional funding to meet its administrative overhead expenses in the long term. The Company believes it will be able to raise capital as required but recognizes there will be risks involved that may be beyond its control.
The Company expects its current capital resources will be sufficient to carry out its exploration plans and operations through at least the next twelve months. There are no external restrictions on the Company’s capital.
16. MANAGEMENT OF FINANCIAL RISK
The Company is exposed to credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk from its financial instruments which include cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company is not exposed to significant market or other price risks.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s cash and short-term investments are on deposit at a major financial institution. Amounts receivable consist primarily of goods and services tax refunds due from the Government of Canada and are neither past due nor impaired. As such, the Company considers its exposure to credit risk to be minimal.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk through its accounts payable, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related parties, which are all due on demand. The Company uses cash forecasts to ensure as far as possible that there is sufficient cash on hand to meet short-term business requirements. Cash is invested in highly liquid investments which are available to discharge obligations when they come due.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the fair value or future cash flows of the Company's financial instruments. The Company is exposed from time to time to interest rate risk as a result of holding fixed rate temporary investments of varying maturities. The Company reduces the risk that it will realize a loss as a result of a decline in the fair value of these investments by limiting these investments to highly liquid securities with short-term maturities.
As at June 30, 2021, the Company estimates that a 1% change in prevailing interest rates would change the fair value of future cash flows from the Company’s financial instruments by approximately $8,150 (December 31, 2020 - $11,000).
