1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Rex Resources Corp. (the "Company") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on July 29, 2020. On June 2, 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering ("IPO") and commenced trading on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") on June 4, 2021 under the trading symbol "OWN". The Company is primarily engaged in mineral exploration activities in British Columbia, Canada. The head office and the principal address of the Company are located at 1570 – 505 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V7X 1M3.
These financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. Different bases of measurement may be appropriate if the Company is not expected to continue operations for the foreseeable future. During the six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company had a net loss of $73,652 (March 31, 2022 - $209,054 net loss), and as of that date, an accumulated deficit of $617,258 (September 30, 2022 - $543,606), had not advanced its mineral properties to commercial production, and is not able to finance day to day activities through operations. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the successful exercise of its mineral property option agreement, results from its mineral property exploration activities and its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds from and/or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations and ongoing operating losses. These uncertainties may cast a significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue operations as a going concern. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with its proceeds from its initial public offering of its shares, loans from directors and companies controlled by directors and/or additional private placement of common shares. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty. Such adjustments could be material.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-19 a global pandemic. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has major implications for all economic activities, including that of the Company. At this time, it is not possible to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak; however, management believes that the impact to the Company will be limited mainly to the curtailment of travel and access to mineral projects due to travel and social distancing restrictions as well as its ability to raise financing. There has been no material disruption to the Company's current operations to date. Access to the Company's project located in British Columbia, Canada has not been prohibited.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Statement of compliance
The Company applies International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). These unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements required by IFRS as issued by the IASB. The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in these unaudited condensed interim financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements as at and for the year ended September 30, 2022. Any subsequent changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Company's annual financial statements for the year ending September 30, 2023 could result in the restatement of these condensed interim financial statements.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Continued)
Significant estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and judgments concerning the future. The Company's management reviews these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted for prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.
Significant estimates and judgments about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the reporting date that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from estimates and judgments made, relate to, but are not limited to the following:
Ability to continue as a going-concern
Management assesses the Company's ability to continue as a going concern at each reporting date, using all quantitative and qualitative information available. This assessment, by its nature, relies on estimates of future cash flows and other future events (as discussed in Note 1), whose subsequent changes could materially impact the validity of such an assessment.
Recoverability of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets
Assets or cash-generating units ("CGUs") are evaluated at each reporting date to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. The Company considers both internal and external sources of information when making the assessment of whether there are indications of impairment for the Company's exploration and evaluation assets.
Significant judgment is required when determining whether facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of exploration and evaluation assets may exceed its recoverable amount. The retention of regulatory permits and licenses, the Company's ability to obtain financing for exploration and development activities and its future plans on the exploration and evaluation assets, current and future metal prices, and market sentiment are all factors considered by the Company.
In respect of the carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets recorded on the statements of financial position, management has determined that it continues to be appropriately recorded, as there are no indications that the value of the assets have declined more than its carrying amount.
3. NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES
New accounting standards issued but not yet effective
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments to IAS 1) – The amendments to IAS1 provide a more general approach to the classification of liabilities based on the contractual arrangements in place at the reporting date. These amendments are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

- iii. $1,000,000 by December 31, 2023; and
- iv. $1,750,000 by December 31, 2024.
If the Company exercises the Option and acquires 60% rights, title and interest in the claims, Eagle Plains will be entitled to 2.0% net smelter royalty (one-half of which may be repurchased for $1,000,000) and both parties will form a joint venture for the purpose of continued exploration and, if warranted, development of the property.

5. SHARE CAPITAL (Continued)
Escrow shares
On December 22, 2020, the Company executed an escrow agreement with an escrow agent and a certain security holders where they have agreed to deposit 2,250,000 common shares in escrow. Under the escrow agreement, 25% of the shares were released upon completion of the IPO and 25% of the shares will be released every six months following listing. As at March 31, 2023, the Company had no (September 30, 2022 – 1,500,000) shares held in escrow.
Stock Options
On October 5, 2020, the Company adopted the Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The shares issuable under the Plan are as follows:
- The term of any options granted may not exceed 10 years from the date of grant;
- The aggregate number of shares ("Optioned Shares") that may be issuable pursuant to options granted under the Plan will not exceed 10% of the number of issued shares of the Company at the time of the granting of options under the Plan;
- No more than 5% of the issued shares of the Company, calculated at the date the option is granted, may be granted to any one Optionee (as hereinafter defined) in any 12-month period;
- No more than 2% of the issued shares of the Company, calculated at the date the option is granted, may be granted to any one Consultant in any 12-month period; and
- No more than an aggregate of 2% of the issued shares of the Company, calculated at the date the option is granted, may be granted to all Employees and/or Consultants conducting "Investor Relations Activities" (as that term is defined in TSX Venture Exchange Policy 1.1) in any 12-month period.
On August 16, 2021, the Company granted 1,075,000 stock options to directors, officers and consultants with an exercise price of $0.20 per common share for two years from the date of grant. These options had a fair value of $86,395 calculated using the Black Scholes model with the following inputs: i) exercise price: $0.20; ii) share price: $0.20; iii) term: 2 years; iv) volatility: 114%; v) discount rate: 0.41%. Of the fair value calculation, approximately $70,322 has been attributed to related parties of the Company.
The volatility is based on historical observations of comparable companies. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on yield curves on Canadian government zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term equal to the stock options' expected life. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise, forfeiture and employee termination within the valuation model. The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock. Companies are required to utilize an estimated forfeiture rate when calculating the expense for the reporting period. Based on the best estimate, management applied the estimated forfeiture rate of nil% in determining the expense recorded.

a. Comprises cash
The Company has determined the estimated fair values of its financial instruments based on appropriate valuation methodologies; however, considerable judgment is required to develop these estimates. The fair values of the Company's financial instruments are not materially different from their carrying values due to the short-term maturity nature of the financial instruments.
Management of Financial Risk
The Company's financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, which include the following:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss due to the counterparty's inability to meet its obligations. The Company's exposure to credit risk is on its cash. Risk associated with cash is managed through the use of major banks which are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk.
7. FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued)
Management of Financial Risk (Continued)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulties in meeting obligations when they become due. The Company ensures that there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term operating requirements, after taking into account the Company's holdings of cash. The Company's cash is held in corporate bank accounts available on demand. The Company's accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within 90 days of March 31, 2023. Liquidity risk has been assessed as high.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
Currency risk
The Company is subject to normal market risks including fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. While the Company manages its operations in order to minimize exposure to these risks, the Company has not entered into any derivatives or contracts to hedge or otherwise mitigate this exposure.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate.
Price risk
The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to equity prices. Price risk as it relates to the Company is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company's ability to raise financing 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.
Capital management
The Company's policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor and creditor confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The capital structure of the Company consists of components of shareholders' equity. There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the period. The Company is actively looking to acquire an interest in a business or assets, and this involves a high degree of risk. The Company has not determined whether it will be successful in its endeavors and does not generate cash flows from operations. The Company's primary source of funds comes from the issuance of common shares. 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. 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 have been no changes to the Company's approach to capital management during the period ended March 31, 2023.
8. SEGMENTED INFORMATION
The Company operates in one business segment being the exploration and development of resource properties. All assets of the Company are located in Canada.
9. COMMITMENTS
