Running Fox Resource Corp. Management Discussion and Analysis For the Three Months Ended February 28, 2026 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
Running Fox Resource Corp. (the "Company" or "Running Fox") has adopted the format prescribed by the Canadian Securities Regulators for the Company's Management Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"). The following MD&A has been prepared as of April 20, 2026 and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended February 28, 2026 and the related notes, together with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2025 and the related notes.
Our fiscal year end is November 30. References to a fiscal year refer to the calendar year in which such fiscal year ends. Our quarter ends are the three-month periods that end on the last day of February, May, August, and November. For instance, "Q1 2026" refers to the three months ended February 28, 2026.
The referenced consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, which is the Company's functional currency, unless otherwise indicated.
FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
By its nature, this MD&A may contain certain information of a forward-looking nature. Such forward-looking information involves substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Most of these are beyond the control of the Company and may include: the impact of unpredictable swings in government policies and requirements, general economic conditions, industry conditions, currency fluctuations, environmental risks, and volatility of commodity prices.
Readers are cautioned that the assumptions used, while considered reasonable by the Company at the time, could subsequently prove to be incorrect to various degrees. As such, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking statements.
1. Description of Business
The Company was incorporated under the laws of Province of British Columbia on September 1, 1981. The Company is in the business of reviewing, optioning, or acquiring suitable projects and developing those projects for eventual cash flow.
2. Overall Performance
The Company currently has no active business operations and generates no operating revenue. Management's current strategy is limited to maintaining the Company's reporting issuer status while evaluating potential strategic alternatives.
During Q1 2026, management continued its efforts to identify and evaluate viable business opportunities but also expanded its scope to include the exploration of a potential reorganization of the Company. There is no assurance that these efforts will be successful. The Company's
Running Fox Resource Corp. Management Discussion and Analysis For the Three Months Ended February 28, 2026 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
ability to continue as a going concern remains dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its ongoing liabilities and to successfully complete a strategic transaction.
3. Results of Operations
Three Months Ended February 28, 2026
For three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company recorded operating expenses of $27,978, compared to$ 16,897 for the three months ended February 28, 2025. The variance is primarily attributable to management fees, which were $10,000 in Q1 2026 compared to $nil in Q1 2025. During Q1 2025, the Company's CEO voluntarily waived all management fees to preserve the Company's liquidity. In Q1 2026, management fees were recognized but partially waived at the discretion of the CEO to further support the Company's working capital. Aside from this variance, expenditures across all other categories remained generally comparable between the two periods.
For the three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company recorded a net and comprehensive loss of $29,613, compared to a net and comprehensive loss of$ 20,013 for the three months ended February 28, 2025. The increase was mainly driven by the recognition of management fees as mentioned above. The Company did not report any revenues during both periods.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 28-Feb | 30-Nov | 31-Aug | 31-May | 28-Feb | 30-Nov | 31-Aug | 31-May | |

Running Fox Resource Corp. Management Discussion and Analysis For the Three Months Ended February 28, 2026 (Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
At February 28, 2026, the Company had cash balance of $22,760 (November 30, 2025 - $5,031) and working capital of $4,392 (November 30, 2025 - $32,816). The decrease in working capital is primarily attributable to the disposition of the Company's investment portfolio to fund ongoing corporate administrative costs and regulatory obligations. During the current period, the Company sold substantially all of its marketable securities, with proceeds held in cash. While this resulted in a higher ending cash balance compared to the prior period, the overall current asset base declined as the Company did not raise any equity financing during the period and utilized existing resources to satisfy its operational requirements.
While the Company's current cash position is expected to be sufficient to maintain its public listing status and meet immediate obligations in the short term, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing or complete a strategic transaction.
Management is exploring various strategic alternatives and funding options. However, no formal commitments are currently in place, and there can be no assurance that such financing or a strategic transaction will be available on favourable terms, if at all.
Cash Flows
During the three months ended February 28, 2026, the Company experienced a net cash inflow of $17,729, compared to cash inflow of $7,705 in the comparative period. This change was driven by the following activities:
- Operating Activities: The Company utilized $22,114 of cash during the three months ended February 28, 2026, to fund ongoing administrative, regulatory, and other operating costs. In comparison, the Company utilized $5,826 of cash during the three months ended February 28, 2025. As the Company has no revenue-generating operations, it expects to continue experiencing negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future.
- Investing Activities: These resulted in net cash inflow of $39,843 during the three months ended February 28, 2026 (2025 – inflow of $13,531), primarily associated with the proceeds received from the sale of marketable securities.
- Financing Activities: The Company did not undertake any financing activities during the current or prior fiscal year.
6. Segmented Information
The Company is currently identifying new business opportunities. All assets and operations are located in Canada.

7. Capital Resources
The Company's capital resources primarily rely on potential financings through brokered and non-brokered private placements and potential debt financing if favourable fiscal terms are available.
The Company will depend primarily upon equity to finance its future projects. There can be no assurance that capital requirements will be met by this means of financing as inherent risks are attached therein, including commodity prices, financial market conditions, and general economic factors.
There were no financing activities during the three months ended February 28, 2026.
8. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements for the three months ended February 28, 2026.

The Committee is also responsible for developing qualification criteria for new Board members for recommendation to the Board in accordance with National Policy 58-201 – Corporate Governance Guidelines.

In evaluating (or making recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to) the level of compensation for the executive officers, the Audit Committee reviews and considers the Company's corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation for its executive officers and evaluates the performance of each executive officer in light of those corporate goals and objectives.

To the knowledge of the Company, none of the executive officers or directors have purchased such financial instruments.
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
The Company's standard TSX-V "Rolling 10 %" Share Option Plan (the "Plan") is approved annually by shareholders at the annual general meetings of the Company.

The Plan also provides that the number of Common Shares issuable under the Plan, together with all of the Company's other previously established or proposed share compensation arrangements, may not exceed 10% of the total number of issued and outstanding Common Shares. All options expire on a date not later than 10 years after the date of grant of such options.
