Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of CanAlaska Uranium Ltd.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012, and the consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended April 30, 2013, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

 

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor's Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. and subsidiaries as at April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012, and their financial performance and their cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended April 30, 2013 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

 

   
   

Emphasis of Matter

 

Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 2 in the consolidated financial statements which indicates that the Company does not earn revenues from its operations, incurred a net loss of $2.4 million during the year ended April 30, 2013, and has a deficit of $80.9 million at April 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Company depends on its ability to raise financing in order to discharge its commitments and liabilities in the normal course of business. These matters, along with the other matters set forth in Note 2, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As discussed in Note 18 of the consolidated financial statements (restated), the 2013 consolidated financial statements have been restated to include statements of net loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows for the year ended April 30, 2011, as well as the related disclosures for that year in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, as were previously reported.

1Nature of Operations

 

CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (the “Company” or “CanAlaska”) and its subsidiaries are principally engaged in the exploration of uranium properties. The Company brings the properties to production, structures joint ventures with others, option or lease properties to third parties or sell the properties outright. The Company has not determined whether these properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable and the Company is considered to be in the exploration stage. From time to time, the Company evaluates new properties and directs exploration on these properties based on the Board of Director’s evaluation of financial and market considerations at the time. On June 21, 2011, the Company’s shares commenced trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “CVV” and ceased trading on the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company’s shares are also quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) in the United States under the symbol “CVVUF” and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “DH7N”. The Company’s registered office is located at 625 Howe Street, Suite 1020, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2T6, Canada.

 

2Going Concern

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and statement of financial position classification that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These adjustments could be material.

 

The recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral properties and related deferred costs is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development, and upon future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of the mineral properties. Due to increasingly difficult market conditions facing junior uranium exploration companies there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional financing. The amounts shown as mineral property costs represent net acquisition costs incurred to date.

 

At April 30, 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.3 million (April 30, 2012: $4.4 million) (note 5) and working capital of $1.2 million (April 30, 2012: $3.1 million). The Company does not earn revenues from its operations, incurred a net loss of $2.3 million during the year ended April 30, 2013, and has a deficit of $80.9 million at April 30, 2013. Management believes that the cash on hand at April 30, 2013 is sufficient to meet corporate, administrative and selected exploration activities for the coming twelve months. Should management not be successful in its forthcoming exploration programs, additional fund raising initiatives or sale of certain non-core properties, it may either need to dilute its ownership in its properties or secure additional financing to continue to advance the development of its exploration projects. Management has taken steps to streamline non-discretionary expenditures and financial overheads and is working to option, joint venture or sell its individual exploration projects. The above factors cast substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a)Statement of Compliance

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with and in full compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Boards (“IASB”). The policies applied in these consolidated financial statements are presented in note 3 and are based on IFRS issued and effective at April 30, 2013. These consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors for issue on March 21, 2014.

 

b)Basis of preparation

 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured on the fair value basis.

 

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CanAlaska and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including:

  • CanAlaska Resources Ltd. U.S.A., a Nevada company
  • CanAlaska West McArthur Uranium Ltd., a B.C. company
  • Golden Fern Resources Limited, a New Zealand company
  • Poplar Uranium Limited., a B.C. company

 

Subsidiaries are entities over which the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or convertible, are taken into account in the assessment of whether control exists. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. They are deconsolidated from the date on which control ceases. All inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

These consolidated financial statements also include the proportionate share of each of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of its interest in CanAlaska Korean Uranium Limited Partnership (“CKULP” or the “Partnership” or the “CKU Partnership”) and CanAlaska Korean Uranium Limited.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

c)Share-based payments

 

The Company operates an equity-settled, share-based compensation plan, under which the entity receives services from employees and non-employees as consideration for equity instruments (options) of the Company. The total amount to be expensed is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted.

 

The fair value of share-based compensation is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and management’s assumptions as disclosed in note 10. When a stock option is exercised, the Company recognizes an increase in its share capital equivalent to the consideration paid by the option holder and the fair value amount previously recognized in equity reserve. The fair value of any stock options granted to directors, officers and employees of the Company is recorded as an expense over the vesting period of the options with a corresponding increase in equity reserve.

 

d)Income taxes

 

Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax expense. Income tax is recognized in the consolidated statement of net loss and comprehensive loss except to the extent it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case the related taxes are recognized in equity.

 

Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates substantially enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deferred tax consequences attributable to unused tax loss carry forwards, unused tax credits and differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled.

 

The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income or loss in the period that substantive enactment occurs.

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the asset can be utilized. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that deferred tax asset will be recovered, the deferred tax asset is reduced.

 

The following temporary differences do not result in deferred tax assets or liabilities:

·the initial recognition of assets or liabilities, not arising in a business combination, that does not affect accounting or taxable income;
·initial recognition of goodwill;
·investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities where the timing of reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and reversal in the foreseeable future is not probable.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to the set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

e)Flow-through shares

 

Under Canadian income tax legislation, a company is permitted to issue flow-through shares whereby the Company agrees to incur qualifying expenditures and renounce the related income tax deductions to the investors. The Company has adopted a policy to (i) allocate the proceeds between the offering of the shares and the sale of tax benefits when the shares are offered and (ii) recognize an income tax provision upon filing of appropriate renunciation forms with the Canadian taxation authorities for qualifying expenditures previously incurred.

 

The allocation of the proceeds is made based on the residual difference between the quoted price of the shares and the amount the investor pays for the flow-through shares. A liability is recognized for the premium paid by the investors. The liability is reduced and the reduction of premium liability is recorded in other income when the Company has the intention to renounce the expenditures with the Canadian taxation authorities for qualifying expenditures previously incurred. The deferred tax impact, if any, is recorded at the same time.

 

f)Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment (“PPE”) are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. The cost of an item of PPE consists of the purchase price, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for its intended use and an initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located. An item of PPE is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on disposal of the asset, determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, is recognized in profit or loss. Where an item of property and equipment comprises major components with different useful lives, the components are accounted for as separate items of plant and equipment. Expenditures incurred to replace a component of an item of property and equipment that is accounted for separately, including major inspection and overhaul expenditures are capitalized.

 

The Company provides for amortization of its property and equipment as follows:

 

Automotive 30% declining balance basis
Leasehold improvements 30% declining balance basis
Mining equipment 30% declining balance basis
Office equipment 20% declining balance basis

 

g)Exploration and evaluation expenditures

 

Exploration and evaluation expenditure include the costs of acquiring licenses, costs associated with exploration and evaluation activity, and the fair value (at acquisition date) of exploration and evaluation assets acquired in a business combination. Exploration and evaluation expenditures are expensed as incurred as mineral property expenditures. Costs incurred before the Company has obtained the legal rights to explore an area are recognized in the statement of comprehensive loss.

 

Acquisition costs are capitalized to the extent that these costs can be related directly to the acquisition of a specific area of interest where it is considered likely to be recoverable by future exploitation or sale.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

 

Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified to mining property and development assets within property and equipment. Subsequent costs are capitalized to the respective mineral property interests.

 

Recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest.

 

The Company is in the exploration stage with respect to its investment in mineral properties and accordingly follows the practice of expensing all costs relating to exploration for and development of mineral claims and crediting all proceeds received for option or farm-out arrangements or recovery of costs against the mineral expenditures.

 

h)Impairment of non-financial assets

 

At each reporting date, the carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets are impaired. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for the period. For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which the exploration activity relates, generally by mineral property interests. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs. For exploration and evaluation assets, indication of impairment includes but is not limited to expiration of the rights to explore, substantive expenditure in the specific area is neither budgeted or planned, and if the entity has decided to discontinue exploration activity in the specified area.

 

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

 

Management considers both external and internal sources of information in assessing whether there are any indications that the Company’s non-financial assets are impaired. External sources of information management considers include changes in market, economic and legal environment in which the Company operates that are not within its control and affect the recoverable amount of its non-financial assets. Internal sources of information management consider include the manner in which non-financial assets are being used or are expected to be used and indications of economic performance of the assets.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

i)Foreign currencies

 

The functional and presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on dates of transactions. At each reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the spot rates prevailing at the date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the date of the transaction and not revalued every period.

 

j)Financial assets and liabilities

 

Financial assets held are cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and available-for-sale securities. Financial liabilities are trade and other payables.

 

These are classified into the following specified categories: available-for-sale (“AFS”) financial assets, loans and receivables and other liabilities. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. Available-for-sale securities held by the Company that are traded in an active market are classified as being AFS and are stated at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in fair value are recognized directly in other comprehensive income ("OCI”) in the investments revaluation reserve with the exception of significant or prolonged losses which are recognized in profit or loss. Where the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in the investments revaluation reserve is included in the consolidated statement of net loss and comprehensive loss for the period.

 

The fair value of AFS monetary assets denominated in a foreign currency is determined in that foreign currency and translated at the spot rate at the financial position reporting date. The change in fair value attributable to translation differences that result from a change in amortized cost of the asset is recognized in profit or loss. Trade and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivables. Loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial. Other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The Company has classified its financial instruments as follows:

 

Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables
Available-for-sale securities Available-for-sale
Trade and other receivables Loans and receivables
Trade and other payables Other financial liabilities

 

Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the consolidated statement of financial position are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

  • Level 1 - valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2 - valuation techniques based on inputs other than quoted prices included in 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 - valuation techniques using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

The Company’s available for sale investments are classified as Level 1 financial instruments. There have been no transfers between fair value levels during the reporting period.

 

Impairment of financial assets

 

Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at each financial position reporting date. Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted. For unlisted shares classified as AFS, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment. For all other financial assets objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; or
  • default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or
  • it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization.

 

For certain categories of financial assets, such as trade and other receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of accounts receivable, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When an accounts receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in the consolidated statement of net loss and comprehensive loss. With the exception of AFS equity instruments, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized. In respect of AFS equity securities, impairment losses previously recognized through profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized directly in equity.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

k)Investment revaluation reserve

 

Investment revaluation reserve includes unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, none of which are included in the calculation of net earnings or losses until realized or until there is a significant or prolonged decline in the investments value.

 

l)Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash deposits in banks, bankers’ acceptances and certificates of deposits (note 5) and are readily convertible into a known amount of cash with maturity days of three months or less.

 

m)Decommissioning liabilities

 

Obligations associated with the decommissioning of tangible non-current assets are recorded as provisions when those obligations are incurred, with the amount of the liability initially measured at management’s best estimates. These obligations are capitalized in the accounts of the related non-current assets and are amortized over the useful lives of the related assets. It is possible that the Company's estimates of its ultimate decommissioning liabilities could change as a result of changes in regulations, the extent of environmental remediation required and the means of reclamation or costs estimates. Changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively from the period these estimates are revised. There are no decommissioning liabilities obligations as at April 30, 2013 and April 30, 2012.

 

n)Equity

 

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Company after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of issue costs.

 

o)Provisions

 

A provision is recognized in the statement of financial position when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

 

p)Interest income

 

Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

q)Loss per share

 

Basic loss per common share is calculated by dividing the loss attributed to shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted loss per common share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential common shares. Stock options, shares to be issued, and warrants outstanding are not included in the computation of diluted (loss) earnings per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

r)Segment reporting

 

A segment is a component of the Company that is distinguishable by economic activity (business segment), or by its geographical location (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments. The Company operates in one business segment, the exploration of mineral property interests.

 

s)Future Accounting pronouncements

 

Unless otherwise noted, the following revised standards and amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with earlier application permitted. The Company is determining the impact of the adoption of these standards on its reported results or financial position.

 

(i) IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, was issued in November 2009 and addresses classification and measurement of financial assets. It replaces the multiple category and measurement models in IAS 39 for debt instruments with a new mixed measurement model having only two categories: amortized cost and fair value through profit or loss. IFRS 9 also replaces the models for measuring equity instruments. Such instruments are either recognized at fair value through profit or loss or at fair value through other comprehensive income. Where equity instruments are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, dividends are recognized in profit or loss to the extent that they do not clearly represent a return of investment; however, other gains and losses (including impairments) associated with such instruments remain in accumulated comprehensive income indefinitely.

 

Requirements for financial liabilities were added to IFRS 9 in October 2010 and they largely carried forward existing requirements in IAS 39, Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement, except that fair value changes due to credit risk for liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss are generally recorded in other comprehensive income. The effective date of IFRS 9 is January 1, 2015.

 

(ii) IFRS 10, Consolidated Financial Statements, requires an entity to consolidate an investee when it has power over the investee, is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Under exiting IFRS, consolidation is required when an entity has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

(iii) IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, requires a venturer to classify its interest in a joint arrangement as a joint venture or joint operation. Joint ventures will be accounted for using the equity method of accounting whereas for a joint operation the venturer will recognize its share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of the point operation.

3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

(iv) IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, establishes disclosure requirements for interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates, and unconsolidated structured entities. The standard carries forward existing disclosures and also introduces significant additional disclosures that address the nature of, and risks associated with, an entity's interests in other entities.

 

(v) IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement, is a comprehensive standard for fair value measurement and disclosure for use across all IFRS standards. The new standard clarifies that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, at the measurement date. Under existing IFRS, guidance on measuring and disclosing fair value is dispersed among the specific standards requiring fair value measurements and does not always reflect a clear measurement basis or consistent disclosures.

 

(vi) There have been amendments to existing standards, including IAS 27, Separate Financial Statements (IAS 27), and IAS 28, Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (IAS 28). IAS 27 addresses accounting for subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities and associates in non-consolidated financial statements. IAS 28 has been amended to include joint ventures in its scope and to address the changes in IFRS 10 - 13.

 

(vii) IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, has been amended to require entities to separate items presented in OCI into two groups, based on whether or not items may be recycled in the future. Entities that choose to present OCI items before tax will be required to show the amount of tax related to the two groups separately.

 

4Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates

 

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. The consolidated financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and the revision affects both current and future periods.

 

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the statement of financial position date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

4Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates (continued)

 

a)Critical judgments

 

·The Company believes that the cash on hand at April 30, 2013 is sufficient to meet corporate, administrative and selected exploration activities for the coming twelve months and that the presentation of these consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis is appropriate.
·The Company has determined that it will account for its investment in CKU Partnership using the proportionate consolidation method to reflect its joint control with the Korean Consortium. In assessing whether the Company has joint control the Company assessed whether all the parties, or a group of the parties, control the arrangement. This assessment necessarily involves judgment as to whether (i) the Korean Consortium and the Company have equal rights and powers in governing the financial and operating policies of the Partnership or appointing and removing members of the Partnership’s Board of Directors and (ii) decision making is governed by the Partnership’s Board of Directors, with equal representation from the Consortium and the Company.
·The Company decided not to recognize deferred tax assets consisting of Canadian exploration expenses, capital losses and unused tax losses as it considered it not to be probable that taxable income will be available in the near future to offset these deferred tax assets.
·Under IFRS, accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditures can capitalize all exploration and evaluation expenditures as a matter of policy, or costs may be expensed as incurred until a decision was made that commercial exploitation is probable, from which point the costs have been capitalized. The Company has elected to have a policy to expense all costs for exploration and evaluation expenditures.
·Management assesses each mineral property interest at each reporting period to determine whether any indication of impairment exists, and if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Where an indicator of impairment exists, a formal estimate of the recoverable amount is made which is considered to be the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. These assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions such as future capital requirements and assessments of preliminary assay results. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s-length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties.

 

b)Estimates

 

·the fair value estimation of share-based awards included in the consolidated statements of financial position and the inputs used in accounting for stock options and warrants in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss;
·the accounting and recognition of income taxes which is included in the consolidation statement of net loss and comprehensive loss and composition of deferred income tax asset and liabilities included in the consolidated statement of financial position;
·the inputs used in determining the various commitments and contingencies accrued in the consolidated statements of financial position; and,
·the assessment of indications of impairment of each mineral properties and related determination of the net realizable value and write-down of those properties where applicable.

·In April 2013, the Company recognized an impairment on certain of its BC Copper claims for approximately $7,000 as it did not renew its permits for these claims.

 

9Share Capital

 

The Company has authorized capital consisting of an unlimited amount of common shares without par value.

 

Share Issuances

 

a)In March 2012, the Company issued 283,000 common shares for gross proceeds of $121,690. A finder’s fee of $4,867 in cash and 11,320 warrants were issued in connection with the financing. Each finder’s warrant entitles the holder to purchase on additional common share for a period of eighteen months from the closing date, at a price of $0.55 per warrant share. The share purchase warrants issued as part of this placement have been recorded at a fair value of $1,825 which was determined using the Black Scholes model.

 

In March 2012, the Company issued 1,522,000 flow-through common shares for gross proceeds of $776,220. A finder’s fee of $31,049 in cash and 60,880 warrants were issued in connection with the financing. $68,490 was allocated to the flow-through share premium as the market value on the date of close was less than the offering price associated with this offering.

10Share Stock Options and Warrants (continued)

 

Option and warrant pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected volatility. Changes in the assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options and warrants. The Company’s expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s share price on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the compensation expense for the year ended April 30, 2013:

 

    Warrants Options
Weighted average fair value   - $0.13
Forfeiture rate   - 15.4%
Risk-free interest rate   - 1.1% - 1.26%
Expected life   - 2.4 – 2.54 years
Expected volatility   - 78.7% - 93.8%
Expected dividend   - 0%

 

The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the compensation expense for the year ended April 30, 2012:

 

    Warrants Options
Weighted average fair value   $0.16 $0.24
Forfeiture rate   0% 15.40% - 15.42%
Risk-free interest rate   1.28% 1.08% - 1.74%
Expected life   1.5 years 1.48 – 2.79 years
Expected volatility   84% 82% - 94%
Expected dividend   0% 0%

 

The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the compensation expense for the year ended April 30, 2011:

 

    Warrants Options
Weighted average fair value   $0.25 $0.63
Forfeiture rate   0% 15.04% - 15.17%
Risk-free interest rate   1.68% 1.26% - 1.82%
Expected life   2.0 years 2.0 – 2.53 years
Expected volatility   40% 106% - 112%

The Company has outstanding and future commitments under mineral properties option agreements to pay cash and/or issue common shares of the Company (note 8).

 

14Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalent, trade and other receivables and trade and other payables approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

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

 

a)Currency Risk

 

The Company’s presentation and functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company is therefore exposed to the financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates, both in the New Zealand dollar relative to the Canadian dollar , and in the US$ relative to the Canadian dollar. A 10% change in either of these currencies would not have a significant impact on the comprehensive loss.

 

The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

14Financial Instruments (continued)

 

b)Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. To mitigate exposure to credit risk, the Company deposits cash and cash equivalents with high quality large Canadian financial institutions as determined by rating agencies.

 

As at April 30, 2013, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of its cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables.

 

c)Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company is reliant upon equity issuances as it source of cash. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining an adequate level of cash and cash equivalents to meet its ongoing obligations. The Company continuously reviews its actual expenditures and forecast cash flows and matches the maturity dates of its cash and cash equivalents to capital and operating needs. For further information related to liquidity refer to note 2.

 

d)Interest Rate Risk

 

The Company’s interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents is exposed to interest rate risk. A decrease in interest rates would result in lower relative interest income and an increase in interest rates would result in higher relative interest income.

 

15Management of Capital

 

The Company considers its capital to consist of common shares, stock options and warrants. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the exploration of its mineral properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk.

 

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares and, acquire or dispose of assets.

 

In order to maximize ongoing exploration efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its short-term excess cash in highly liquid short-term interest bearing investments with short term maturities, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.

17Subsequent event

 

On July 2, 2013, the option agreement with Tyrone Docherty and Discovery Venture Ltd. for the BC Copper (Big Creek) project was terminated.

 

In June 2013, the Collins Bay Extension option agreement dated July 4, 2009 and subsequently amended on March 29, 2011 with Bayswater Uranium Corporation was amended whereby the Company extended the option period from six years to eight years. In consideration for the amendment, the Company accelerated its staged common share issuances and issued 10,000 common shares on July 12, 2013. As a result, in July 2013, the Company issued an aggregate of 20,000 common shares under the amended option agreement for the Collins Bay Extension project.

 

Subsequent to April 30, 2013, the Company recognized mineral property impairments on its Grease River, Poplar, Lake Athabasca, Hodgson and Carswell properties for approximately $317,000 as the Company did not renew certain of its permits for these projects.

 

In November 2013, the Company applied to list its shares on the TSX Venture Exchange in response to the Company no longer meeting the market capital requirement of the TSX. The Company's common shares delisted from the TSX and commenced trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on December 30, 2013.
