Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements Unaudited – Prepared by Management

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022

1. Nature of operations and going concern

Rockhaven Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Rockhaven”) was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada and has been continued as a Company under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s head office is located at 510 - 1100 Melville Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 4A6. Its records office is located at 1710 - 1177 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 2L3. Its main business activity is the exploration and evaluation of its mineral property interests (Klaza project) located in Canada. Its common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”).

The Company is in the process of exploring its mineral property interests and has not yet determined whether its mineral property interests contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company's continuing operations and the underlying value and recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral property interests are entirely dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the exploration and development of the mineral property interests, obtaining the necessary permits to mine, and on future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral property interests.

These condensed interim financial statements (the “financial statements”) are prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to 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 operations. As an exploration stage company, the Company does not have traditional sources of revenue, and historically has relied on property option or sale proceeds and share capital financing to cover its operating expenses. As at September 30, 2023, the Company had working capital of $1,322,701 (December 31, 2022 – $2,408,143) and shareholders’ equity of $45,390,577 (December 31, 2022 - $45,546,355). Management has assessed that this working capital is sufficient for the Company to continue as a going concern beyond one year. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these financial statements, it could be necessary to restate the Company’s assets and liabilities on a liquidation basis.

There are many external factors that can adversely affect general workforces, economies, and financial markets globally. Examples include, but are not limited to, the COVID-19 global pandemic and political conflict in other regions. It is not possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of adverse results of such external factors and their effect on the Company’s business or ability to raise funds.

2. Significant accounting policies

(a) Basis of presentation

These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, using the same accounting policies as detailed in the Company‘s annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, and do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements.

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

All amounts on the financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars which is the functional currency of the Company.

(b) Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies, estimates and critical judgments, methods of computation and presentation applied in these financial statements are consistent with those of the most recent annual audited financial statements and are those the Company expects to adopt in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

(c) Standards issued by not yet effective

7. Share capital

The authorized share capital of the Company consists of unlimited common shares without par value and unlimited preferred shares without par value. All issued shares are fully paid.

Transactions for the issue of share capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

There were no transactions for the issue of share capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Transactions for the issue of share capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2022:

  • (a) On June 27, 2022, the Company completed a private placement consisting of the below issuances for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,905,000:

  • 40,500,000 non-flow-through common shares at a price of $0.09 per share for gross proceeds of $3,645,000, which included 11,500,000 common shares purchased by Strategic Metals Ltd. (“Strategic”) (note 9); and

  • 12,600,000 flow-through common shares at a price of $0.10 per share for gross proceeds of $1,260,000.

The flow-through shares were issued at a premium to the trading value of the Company’s common shares, which reflected the value of the income tax write-offs that the Company renounced to the flow-through shareholders effective December 31, 2022. The premium was determined to be $126,000 and was recorded as a reduction of share capital. An equivalent flow-through share premium liability was recorded, which was reversed as the required exploration expenditures were incurred (note 13).

Finders’ fees totaling $82,600 were incurred in respect of the placements. Legal and filing fees amounted to $53,025. The share issue costs were recorded as a reduction of share capital, net of deferred income tax benefits of $36,619.

Stock options

The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan (the “Plan”). The essential elements of the Plan provide that the aggregate number of common shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable pursuant to options granted under the Plan may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares. Options granted under the Plan will have a maximum term of ten years. The exercise price of options granted under the Plan will not be less than the market price of the common shares (defined as the last closing market price of the Company’s common shares immediately preceding the issuance of a news release announcing the granting of the options, or the date of grant in respect of options granted to consultants), or such other price as may be agreed to by the Company and accepted by the TSX-V. Vesting terms are determined by the Board of Directors on the date of grant.

A summary of the status of the Company’s stock options as at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and changes during the period/year then ended is as follows:

The total share-based payment expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $215,023 (2022 - $107,022) which represents stock options vested during the period, and accruals for future vesting dates.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, 750,000 stock options were granted to a Director exercisable at $0.10 each until February 13, 2028. The Company recorded the fair value of the options granted using the BlackScholes option pricing model. Share-based payment expense was calculated using the following weighted average assumptions: expected life of options – five years, stock price volatility – 75.00%, no dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate yield – 3.43%. The fair value is particularly impacted by the Company’s stock price volatility. Using the above assumptions, the fair value of options granted was $0.047 per option, for a total of $35,253.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, 8,080,000 stock options were granted to Officers, Directors, related company employees, and consultants exercisable at $0.10 each until October 20, 2027. The Company recorded the fair value of all options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Share-based payment expense was calculated using the following weighted average assumptions: expected life of options – five years, stock price volatility – 75.00%, no dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate yield – 3.41%. The fair value is particularly impacted by the Company’s stock price volatility. Using the above assumptions, the fair value of options granted was $0.039 per option, for a total of $316,762.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, 500,000 stock options were granted to an Officer exercisable at $0.15 each until March 24, 2027. The Company recorded the fair value of all options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Share-based payment expense was calculated using the following weighted average assumptions: expected life of options – five years, stock price volatility – 75.00%, no dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate yield – 2.42%. The fair value is particularly impacted by the Company’s stock price volatility. Using the above assumptions, the fair value of options granted was $0.062 per option, for a total of $30,777.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, 350,000 related company employee, and consultant options exercisable at $0.15 each, were cancelled. Accordingly, the original fair value of the cancelled options of $9,715 was reversed from contributed surplus and credited to deficit.

7. Share capital (continued)

Warrants

As an incentive to complete private placements, the Company may issue units which include common shares and common share purchase warrants. Using the residual value method, the Company determines whether a value should be allocated to the warrants attached to the units sold in completed private placements. Finders’ warrants may be issued as a private placement share issue cost and are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

A summary of the status of the Company’s warrants as at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and changes during the period/year then ended is as follows:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, 11,088,439 private placement warrants exercisable at $0.29 each, expired unexercised. As a result of the warrants expiring, the original fair value of certain warrants totalling $45,094 was reversed from contributed surplus and credited to share capital.

Contributed surplus

Contributed surplus includes the accumulated fair value of stock options recognized as share-based payments, the fair value of finders’ warrants issued on private placements, the fair value of other compensatory warrants issued, and the residual value of warrants attached to private placement units, if any. Contributed surplus is increased by the fair value of these items on vesting and/or issuance and is reduced by corresponding amounts when the options or warrants expire or are exercised or cancelled.

12. Financial risk management

Capital management

The Company is a junior exploration company and considers items included in shareholders' equity as capital. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, purchase shares for cancellation pursuant to normal course issuer bids or make special distributions to shareholders. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements and does not presently utilize any quantitative measures to monitor its capital. There were no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As at September 30, 2023, the Company’s capital structure is comprised of shareholders’ equity of $45,390,577 (December 31, 2022 - $45,546,355).

The Company currently has no source of revenues. In order to fund future projects and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional funds as needed. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern on a long-term basis and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation is primarily dependent upon its ability to sell or option its mineral properties and its ability to borrow or raise additional financing from equity markets.

12. Financial risk management (continued)

Financial instruments - fair value

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and accounts payable to related parties.

The carrying value of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and accounts payable to related parties approximates their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Financial instruments measured at fair value on the condensed interim statements of financial position are summarized into the following fair value hierarchy levels:

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
$ $ $ $

Cash and cash equivalents 1,333,310 - - 1,333,310
Marketable securities 35,967 - - 35,967

Marketable securities 35,967 - - 35,967
2,561,027 - - 2,561,027

Financial instruments - risk

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, market risk, and liquidity risk.

a) Credit risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk by holding cash and cash equivalents, and receivables. This risk is minimized by holding the funds in a Canadian bank. The Company has minimal receivables exposure as its refundable credits are due from the Canadian government.

b) Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because of fluctuating interest rates on cash and cash equivalents. Fluctuations in market rates do not have a significant impact on the Company’s operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 every 1% fluctuation in interest rates up or down would have impacted loss during the period, up or down, by approximately $14,000 (2022 – $21,000) before income taxes.

c) Market risk

The Company is exposed to market risk because of the fluctuating values and trading volumes of its publicly traded marketable securities. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its investments. Based on the September 30, 2023 value of marketable securities every 10% increase or decrease in the share prices of the Company’s marketable securities would have impacted loss during the period, up or down, by approximately $4,000 (2022 - $4,000) before income taxes.

d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital to ensure its expenditures will not exceed available resources.
