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

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021

1. Nature of operations and going concern

Silver Range Resources Ltd. (the “Company” or “Silver Range”) was incorporated on May 18, 2010, under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada as a wholly owned subsidiary of Strategic Metals Ltd. (“Strategic”). In 2011, the Company and Strategic completed a Plan of Arrangement which reduced Strategic’s investment in the Company to less than 20%. The Company is registered extra-territorially to conduct operations in the Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories and Nunavut, Canada. The Company also has a US incorporated subsidiary company as detailed in note 5. 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. The Company’s common shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”).

The Company’s main corporate strategy is to advance its mineral properties to a drill-ready stage and then option or sell them to other parties. Under option or sale agreements, the Company may receive cash and/or shares in the acquiring companies and may retain interests or royalty interests in the properties. Through this process, the Company is assembling a portfolio of direct and indirect mineral property interests and marketable securities, which will assist in generating cash flows to meet overheads and ongoing exploration and drilling programs. The Company has not yet determined whether its direct or indirect mineral property interests contain mineral reserves that are economically viable. The Company's continued operations, and the underlying value and recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral property interests and marketable securities, are entirely dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves of the Company and those in which it holds a mineral property or shareholder interest. The continued exploration and development of projects will depend on it receiving future cash flows from the disposition or option of its mineral property interests and sale of marketable securities, or from its ability to obtain share capital financing.

The continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could include significant COVID-19 specific costs, volatility in the prices for gold and other metals, logistical challenges and delays, additional travel restrictions, and workforce interruptions. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19, this could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

These condensed interim consolidated 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 revenues and historically has recurring operating losses. As at June 30, 2022, the Company had working capital of $1,069,399 (December 31, 2021 - $1,014,041), and shareholders’ equity of $11,153,634 (December 31, 2021 - $10,143,603). 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.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021

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, 2021, 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 consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements have been prepared on an historical cost basis, except for financial instruments which are 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 these financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars which is the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiary (note 5).

(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 consolidated financial statements and are those the Company expects to adopt in its annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s most recent annual audited consolidated financial statements.

(c) Standards issued but not yet effective

Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The Company has reviewed these updates and determined that none are applicable or consequential to the Company and have been excluded from discussion within these significant accounting policies.

4. Marketable securities

The Company holds share positions in other resource companies (public and private) which were obtained under mineral property option agreements or by participation in private placements. The valuation of the shares classified as current has been determined in whole by reference to the bid price of the shares on the TSX-V or Canadian Securities Exchange, as applicable, at each reporting date. The valuation of the shares classified as non-current has been determined using Level 2 fair value inputs as further described in note 14.

Warrants have been received as attachments to share purchase units and do not trade in an active market. At the time of purchase the per unit cost is allocated in full to each common share. The Company determines the value of the warrants at each reporting date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

A summary of the marketable security transactions for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 is as follows:

5. Subsidiary information

In July 2016, the Company completed the purchase of various mineral properties located in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, Canada, and in Nevada, USA, from Panarc Resources Ltd. (“Panarc”). On closing, Panarc was issued 10,000,000 common shares of the Company at a price of $0.205 per share for total consideration of $2,050,000. Panarc did not retain any royalty or other interest in any of the acquired properties. The purchase price was allocated to the various properties based on the hectares of each property.

Also purchased from Panarc in July 2016 was a 100% interest in the shares of Manta Minerals Corporation (“Manta”), a company incorporated in the State of Nevada, USA. A nominal amount of $1 was allocated to the share purchase.

Panarc incorporated Manta to hold title to its mineral property interests in Nevada, as it is a requirement in the USA that title to USA mineral interests be held by US corporations. Since incorporation Manta has had no transactions other than to hold title to the Nevada mineral claims. All costs to acquire or explore the claims were incurred by Panarc prior to the sale to Silver Range, and by Silver Range after the sale. Other than to hold title to the Nevada minerals claims, Manta has no assets or liabilities, and has had no transactions since being acquired by Silver Range.

Commitment to issue shares

The Company has an ongoing Consulting Agreement with Paladin a company controlled by the President and CEO of the Company. The Consulting Agreement has been renewed each year by way of Amending Agreements. The 2021 Amending Agreement was signed on April 1, 2021 and was effective until March 31, 2022, which was followed by the 2022 Amending Agreement signed on April 1, 2022 and is effective until March 31, 2024.

Pursuant to the 2022 Amending Agreement, Paladin continues to receive a monthly consulting fee of $11,250 in cash and/or shares, which at the sole discretion of Paladin at the time of submitting an invoice for services, may be up to a maximum of $5,000 in common shares. Formerly, the 2021 Amending Agreement allowed the consulting fee to be paid in all cash, 50% cash and 50% common shares, or all common shares of the Company. The consulting fee is paid/accrued on a monthly basis, and any common shares are issuable semi-annually. Amounts rendered by Paladin are recorded within both operating expenses and mineral property interests (notes 11,13).

The Consulting Agreement also includes a $250,000 termination provision which would be triggered by a change in control of the Company or the resignation or discharge of Paladin as a Director/Officer of the amalgamated or merged company in the event of a change in control.

All share issuances are subject to regulatory approval, including TSX-V acceptance, and are subject to such hold periods as are required by the TSX-V and applicable regulatory authorities. The number of any common shares to be issued by the Company is calculated at the end of each month during which services are provided, at a deemed price per share equal to the Market Price of the Company's shares (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX-V) on the last day of each such month on which the shares of the Company traded, minus 50% of the maximum discount permitted by those policies.

As at June 30, 2022, the Company has accrued a commitment for $10,000 (December 31, 2021 - $17,719) relating to the period from April 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022, of which, $6,887 was included within operating expenses and $3,113 capitalized as mineral property costs (both amounts are before applicable sales taxes). The accrual represents the issuance of 91,594 common shares to Paladin for services rendered from April 1, 2022 to June 30, 2022.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company issued 196,581 common shares to Paladin for services rendered from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022. The issuance was in settlement of the accrued commitment of $17,719 as at December 31, 2021, plus additional amounts accrued through to March 31, 2022 totalling $11,814.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company issued 395,283 common shares to Paladin in settlement of services rendered from October 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021 totalling $64,969.

Common share rights

The Company has approved the adoption of a “Rights Plan” dated November 19, 2021, under which one Right is issued for each issued and outstanding common share of the Company. Each Right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one common share at an exercise price equal to one-half the then market price of the stock on the TSX-V, subject to certain adjusting events if they have occurred. The Rights are exercisable only if the Company receives an unacceptable take-over bid as defined in the Rights Agreement. Adoption of the Rights Plan was approved by the shareholders at a general meeting held on May 18, 2022.

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 number of issued shares of the Company at the time of grant. Options granted under the Plan may have a maximum term of ten years. A participant who is not a consultant conducting investor relations activities, who is granted an option that is exercisable at or above the market price at the date of grant, can have their options vest immediately, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors. A participant who is a consultant conducting investor relations activities, who is granted options under the Plan, will become vested with the right to exercise one-quarter of the options upon conclusion of every three months subsequent to the grant date.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, 620,000 stock options were granted to a Director and a consultant exercisable at $0.14 each, expiring on February 22, 2027 and vesting quarterly over one year. 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 – 83.00%, no dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate yield – 1.79%. The fair value is particularly impacted by the Company’s stock price volatility, determined using data from the previous five years.

Using the above assumptions, the fair value weighted average of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was $0.09 per option, for an aggregate total of $57,616.

The total share-based payment expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $282,446 (2021 - $19,465) and includes only options that vested, or an accrual for future vesting, during the period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, 2,045,000 Director, Officer, and consultant options expired unexercised. As a result, the original share-based payments expense of $356,585 was reversed from contributed surplus and credited to deficit.

There were no stock options granted, expired, or cancelled during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, 4,455,000 stock options were granted to a Director and consultants. The stock options are exercisable at either $0.13 or $0.21 each and expire on either July 11, 2026 or December 6, 2026. 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 – 90.00%, no dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate yield – 1.40%. The fair value is particularly impacted by the Company’s stock price volatility, determined using data from the previous five years.

Using the above assumptions, the fair value weighted average of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2021, was $0.09 per option, for an aggregate total of $354,006.

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 warrants attached to 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.

The calculation of basic earnings per share for the three months June 30, 2022 was based on the income attributable to common shareholders, and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculation of diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of common share equivalents, such as outstanding stock options and warrants, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, if dilutive. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, certain stock options and warrants had a dilutive impact.

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, is based on the following:

14. Financial risk management

Capital management

The Company is a junior resource exploration company and considers items included in shareholders’ equity as capital. The Company has no debt and does not expect to enter into debt financing. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to 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 six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company’s capital structure as at June 30, 2022, is comprised of shareholders’ equity of $11,153,634 (December 31, 2021 - $10,143,603).

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.

Financial instruments - fair value

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, marketable securities, reclamation deposits, 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 approximated their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Financial instruments measured at fair value on the condensed interim consolidated 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).

14. Financial risk management (continued)

Financial instruments - risk

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

(a) Credit risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk by holding cash. This risk is minimized by holding the funds in Canadian banks or with Canadian governments. The Company has minimal receivables exposure as its refundable credits are due from the Canadian government. The Company’s accrued receivables and other receivables are due from creditworthy third parties and the Company believes the credit risk associated with these receivables to be low. The Company’s maximum credit risk exposure to these receivables is equal to their carrying values.

(b) Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because of fluctuating interest rates. Fluctuations in market rates do not have a significant impact on the Company’s operations. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, every 1% fluctuation in interest rates would have impacted income for the period by approximately $3,000 (2021 - $2,000) before income taxes.

(c) 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.

(d) Market risk

The Company is exposed to market risk because of the fluctuating values of its marketable securities. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its investments. Based on the June 30, 2022 portfolio value, every 10% increase or decrease in the share price of the securities would have impacted income for the period by approximately $690,000 (2021 - $101,000) before income taxes.

(e) Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk because it holds cash, and has certain receivables and accounts payable denominated in United States Dollars (“USD”), which, because of fluctuating exchange rates can create gains or losses at the time cash is converted to Canadian dollars, or receivables and payables are received or settled. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its foreign currency holdings. Based on its June 30, 2022 USD holdings, every 10% increase or decrease in the exchange rate would have impacted income for the period by approximately $13,000 (2021 - $14,000) before income taxes.

15. Segmented information

The Company operates in one reportable operating segment being the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of mineral properties in Canada and the USA. The Company holds non-current assets comprising mineral property interests of $1,351,003 (December 31, 2021 - $1,211,217) in the USA. The remainder of the Company’s non-current assets are located in Canada.
