Red Pine Exploration Inc. Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) For the nine-month periods ended April 30, 2021 and 2020

1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern

Red Pine Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or “Red Pine”) was founded in 1936 under the laws of Ontario, Canada for the acquisition, exploration, and development of mining properties. The Company's head office and primary location of its registered records is 145 Wellington Street West, Suite 1001, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 1H8. The Company is currently in the exploration stage and has not commenced any commercial operations.

The accompanying 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.

As at April 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital surplus of $5,297,012 excluding the deferred flow-through share premium of $979,199 (July 31, 2020: surplus $604,550) and an accumulated deficit of $83,077,225 (July 31 2020: $ 69,237,900). The Company had a net loss from operations for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2021 of $13,839,325 (April 30, 2020: $2,952,911).

Effective March 15, 2021 the Company completed a one (1) new for every ten (10) old consolidation (10:1) of its Common Shares. There will be no name change in conjunction with the Consolidation. The Company will continue to trade under the symbol “RPX” on the TSXV. There were 477,222,387 Common Shares outstanding; after giving effect to the Consolidation there is 47,722,239 Common Shares outstanding. The share consolidation has been applied retrospectively within the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management considers all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. The Company's ability to continue operations and fund its mining interest expenditures is dependent on management's ability to secure additional financing. Management is actively pursuing such additional sources of financing, and while it has been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurance it will be able to do so in the future. The Company is currently in the exploration stage and has not commenced commercial operations. These conditions may cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

These Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore need to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the accompanying Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. Such adjustments could be material.

The Company’s operations could be significantly adversely affected by the effects of a widespread global outbreak of a contagious disease, including the outbreak of respiratory illness caused by COVID-19. The Company cannot accurately predict the impact COVID-19 will have on its operations and the ability of others to meet their obligations with the Company, including uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, and the length of travel and quarantine restrictions imposed by governments of affected countries. In addition, a significant outbreak of contagious diseases in the human population could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could further affect the Company’s operations and ability to finance its operations.

2. Basis of Presentation

(a) Statement of compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance and comply with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) using accounting principles consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and the corresponding interim reporting period. Furthermore, the information on accounting standards effective in future periods and not yet adopted remains unchanged from that disclosed in the annual financial statements.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on June 22, 2021.

(b) Basis of presentation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2020.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. In addition, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

(c) Basis of consolidation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Augustine Ventures Inc. and Citibar L.P. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

(d) Significant accounting judgements and estimates

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.

Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the interim condensed consolidated 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. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the end of the reporting period, that could have an effect on the amounts recognized in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements relate to the following:

2. Basis of Presentation (continued)

Going concern

The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company (note 1).

Share-based compensation

Estimating fair value for granted stock options requires determining the most appropriate valuation model which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the option, volatility, dividend yield, and rate of forfeitures and making assumptions about them. The value of the share-based payment expense along with the assumptions and model used for estimating fair value for share-based compensation transactions are disclosed in Note 8.

Deferred Flow-Through Premium and Flow-Through Provision Estimates

The assumptions and calculations used for estimating the value attributed to the flow-through premiums on flow-through financings and flow-through provisions as disclosed in Notes 7 and 8.

3. Equipment, Software and Leasehold Improvements

The following table sets out the changes to the carrying value of software licenses and leasehold improvements:

During the nine-month period ended April 30, 2021:

  • a) The Company incurred total acquisition, exploration and evaluation expenditures of $956,551 on the Wawa Gold property for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2021 (2020: $2,291,213).

  • b) During the period ended January 31, 2021 and up to March 30, 2021 when the Company completed a consolidation of the Wawa Gold Project and now owns 100% of the Wawa Gold Project, the Company’s joint venture partner on the Wawa Gold Project, Citibar L.P. (“Citibar”) did not participate in its share of contributions.

On February 22, 2021 the Company entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement with the holders of the partnership interests in Citabar Limited Partnership (“Citabar”), which would result in Red Pine consolidating a 100% ownership in the Wawa Gold Project located near Wawa, Ontario through the acquisition of all of the partnership interests in Citabar (the “Transaction”). The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) for the Transaction was $12,605,396 was payable in a combination of a minimum of $8,575,905 in cash, common shares of Red Pine, the set-off of $1,104,081 in amounts owed by Citabar to Red Pine as well as the grant to the Vendors of a 2% net smelter return royalty (“NSR”) valued at $160,000 on production from the Wawa Gold Project, of which 1.5% of the 2% NSR is subject to a buyback for a total cost of $1.75 million.

Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, Red Pine satisfied the Purchase Price through the payment of $11,341,315 in cash, the granting of the NSR and the set-off of $1,104,081 payable to Red Pine by Citabar. Red Pine elected to pay more than the minimum cash payment and therefore did not issue any common shares to the Vendors in connection with the Transaction.

As at April 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital surplus of $5,297,012 excluding the deferred flow-through share premium of $979,199 (July 31, 2020: surplus $604,550) and an accumulated deficit of $83,077,225 (July 31 2020: $ 69,237,900). The Company had a net loss from operations for the nine-month period ended April 30, 2021 of $13,839,325 (April 30, 2020: $2,952,911).

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the nine-month period ended April 30, 2021.

In managing liquidity, the Company’s primary objective is to ensure the entity can continue as a going concern while raising additional funding to meet its obligations as they come due. The Company’s operations to date have been funded by issuing equity.

The Company’s investment policy is to invest excess cash in low risk financial instruments such as term deposits or by holding funds in high yield savings accounts with major Canadian banks. Financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, which may include currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

The Company’s mineral property interests are all in the exploration stage, as such the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its exploration activities and administrative costs.

Management mitigates the risk and uncertainty associated with raising additional capital in current economic conditions through cost control measures that minimizes discretionary disbursements and reduces exploration expenditures that are deemed of limited strategic value.

The Company manages the capital structure on an ongoing basis and adjusts in response to changes in economic conditions and risks characteristics of its underlying assets. Adjustments to the Company’s capital structure may involve the issuance of new shares, assumption of new debt, acquisition or disposition of assets.

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements other than flow-through spending commitments (note 8).

10. Financial Instrument Risk Factors

The following disclosures are to enable users of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements to evaluate the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments at the end of the reporting period:

a) Credit risk

The Company's credit risk is the risk of counterparty default on cash and cash equivalents held on deposit with financial institutions. The Company manages this risk by ensuring that deposits are only held with large Canadian banks and financial institutions. The amount receivable is primarily HST due from the Canadian government.

b) Liquidity risk

The Company’s liquidity risk is the risk that the Company has insufficient funds to settle its contractual financial liabilities. The Company manages this risk through a budgeting process that ensures sufficient funds are available as contractual cash flows become due.

As at April 30, 2021, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents balance of $4,921,710 (July 31, 2020: $647,920) to settle current liabilities of $691,834 (July 31, 2020: $527,781).

While the Company has been successful in obtaining required funding in the past, there is no assurance that future financings will be available. Refer to going concern note 1.

c) Market risks

The Company’s market risk arises from changes in interest rates and commodity prices that could have an impact on profit and loss. This includes:

  • Interest rate risk, is the sensitivity of the fair value or of the future cash flows of a financial instrument to changes in interest rates. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities that were subject to variable interest rates.

  • Commodity price risks, particularly with respect to gold, is the sensitivity of the fair value of, or of the future cash flows, from mineral assets. The Company manages this risk by monitoring precious metal price trends to determine the appropriate timing for funding the exploration or development of its mineral assets, or for the acquisition or disposition of mineral assets. The Company does not have any mineral assets at the development or production stage carried at historical cost. The Company has expensed the acquisition and exploration costs of its exploration stage mineral assets.

  • Currency risk, is the sensitivity of the fair value or of the future cash flows of financial instruments to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities that were subject to variable foreign exchange rates and as such but its operations can be impacted by a stronger USD.
