1 Nature of operations and going concern

Sama Resources Inc. (“Sama” or the “Company”) is a Canadian-based mineral exploration and development business with activities in West Africa and Canada. The Company was incorporated on July 11, 2006 under the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia. On May 13, 2013, the Company continued its jurisdiction of incorporation from British Columbia into the federal jurisdiction of Canada under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Company’s head office is located at #132 – 1320 Graham Blvd., Mont-Royal, Quebec, Canada, H3P 3C8. The Company’s common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”) under the trading symbol “SME.V”. Based on the information available to date, the Company has not yet determined whether its mineral properties contain economically recoverable reserves. The recoverability of the amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to successfully complete exploration and development programs and, ultimately, upon future profitable production.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for publication by the Board of Directors on May 18, 2023.

The Company’s main exploration and evaluation assets are located in the Republic of Ivory Coast (“Ivory Coast”) West Africa, and hence are subject to the risks normally associated with foreign investment including unanticipated changes in taxes and royalties, renegotiation of contracts, foreign currency fluctuations and political uncertainties.

Going concern uncertainty

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes the Company will continue its operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business for the foreseeable future. The use of these principles may not be appropriate. The Company is in its early stages, and as is common with similar companies, it raises financing for its exploration and evaluation activities. As at March 31, 2023, the Company has accumulated deficit of $34,153,614 (December 31, 2022 – $32,566,515) and a working capital of $6,985,127 (December 31, 2022 – $7,507,136), including cash and cash equivalents of $6,681,450 (December 31, 2022 – $7,397,902). To date, the Company has financed its cash requirements primarily by issuing common shares or units. The Company’s ability to continue future operations and fund its operations is dependent on management's ability to secure additional financing in the future, which may be completed in a number of ways including, but not limited to, the issuance of equity instruments, expenditure reductions, or a combination of strategic partnerships, joint venture arrangements, royalty financing and other capital market alternatives. If management is unable to obtain new funding, the Company may be unable to continue its operations, and amounts realized for assets might be less than amounts reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

2 New accounting standards

Amendment to IAS 1 – Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current

In January 2020, the IASB amended IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements , to clarify the criteria for classifying a liability as non-current relating to the right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period. The adoption of IAS 1 had no impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Amendments to IAS 12 – Income Taxes

The IASB amended IAS 12, Income Taxes to specify how a company accounts for income tax, including deferred tax, which represents tax payable or recoverable in the future. In specified circumstances, companies are exempt from recognising deferred tax when they recognise assets or liabilities for the first time. Previously, there had been some uncertainty about whether the exemption applied to transactions such as leases and decommissioning obligations— transactions for which companies recognise both an asset and a liability. The amendments clarify that the exemption does not apply and that companies are required to recognise deferred tax on such transactions. The aim of the amendments is to reduce diversity in the reporting of deferred tax on leases and decommissioning obligations. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023, with early application permitted. The adoption of IAS 12 had no impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

3 Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") applicable to the preparation of interim statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting , as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").

The accounting policies followed in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 which have been prepared according to IFRS as issued by the IASB.

Basis of measurement

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

Basis of consolidation

In addition to the Company, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are all corporations over which the Company is able, directly or indirectly, to control financial and operating policies, which is the authority usually connected with holding majority voting rights. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is acquired by the Company. Inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation. They are deconsolidated from the date that control by the Company ceases. Any

(Unaudited - in Canadian dollars)

retained interest is measured to its fair value with the change in carrying amount recognized in income or loss. The fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate or joint venture.

The Company’s subsidiaries are as follows:

Jurisdiction of % of
incorporation ownership
Sama Nickel Corporation (“SNC”)(a) Canada 70%
Sama Nickel Côte d’Ivoire SARL (“Sama CI”) Ivory Coast 70%
Société Minière du Tonkpi SARL (“SMT”) Ivory Coast 70%
Sama Resources Quebec Inc. (“SRQ”) Canada 100%
Sama Resources Development Inc. (“SRDI”) Caymans Island 100%
Sama Resources Liberia Inc. (“SRL”) Liberia 100%

4 Non-controlling interests

The Company signed an earn-in and joint venture agreement with IVNE Ivory Coast Inc. or “IVNE” in order to develop its nickel-copper and cobalt projects in Ivory Coast, West Africa. Pursuant to the terms of the earn-in and joint venture agreement, IVNE can earn up to a 60% interest in the Ivory Coast projects by investing, before March 31, 2024 , a total of $25,000,000, including amongst others, the financing of a bankable feasibility study, as follows:

  • Phase 1 : Investments $15,000,000 for a 30% interest;

  • Phase 2 : Investments of $10,000,000 for an additional 30% interest.

IVNE completed phase 1 of the earn-in and joint venture agreement and therefore owns a 30% interest in SNC. The Company assessed its investment in SNC and judged that it still has control over SNC as defined by IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements . Therefore, the Company continues to consolidate the financial results of SNC in its consolidated financial statements.

Summarized financial information of SNC, before intragroup eliminations, is set out below:

Samapleu property

SNC entered into a Syndicate Agreement (“SA”) with La Société pour le Développement Minier de la Côte d’Ivoire (“SODEMI”), a parastatal organization, under which SNC is responsible to finance, on behalf of the SA, exploration work programs during the exploration phase through completion of a Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) on the exploration permits Samapleu East (PR838) and Samapleu West (PR839) held by SODEMI. SODEMI will not contribute to work conducted under the SA. Both PRs expire on June 17, 2023, with possible renewal periods totaling up to 12 years. In accordance with both PRs, SNC agreed to complete an exploration program evaluated at F CFA 2,315,000,000 for PR838 (approximately $5,195,359 as at March 31, 2023) and F CFA 760,000,000 for PR839 (approximately $1,705,604 as at March 31, 2023) before the term of the exploration permits.

Upon completion of the BFS, the Advisory Committee (“AC”), which consists of two SNC representatives and two SODEMI representatives, will conclude on the feasibility of the project. If the AC decides to proceed with the project, an Exploitation Entity (“EE”) will be established whereby future funding will be split between SNC and SODEMI at 66.7% and 33.3%, respectively. The EE will reimburse SODEMI for all costs associated with previous exploration work conducted until January 15, 2009 up to a maximum of F CFA 834,999,457 (approximately $1,873,919 as at March 31, 2023) and will reimburse SNC for costs associated with exploration work conducted between the signature of the SA and the approval of the BFS subject to the approval of the AC which represents a total amount of $26,079,216 as at March 31, 2023.
