Giga Metals Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Unaudited - Expressed in Canadian Dollars
For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

1. Nature and continuance of operations

Giga Metals Corporation (the "Company" or "Giga Metals") was incorporated on January 17, 1983, under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada, and its principal activity is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in Canada. The Company's common shares are listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under the symbol "GIGA" and the OTCQB under the symbol "HNCKF".

The head office, principal address and records office of the Company are located at 700 West Pender Street, Suite 203, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 1G8. The Company's registered address is 885 West Georgia Street, Suite 800, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 3H1.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company and its subsidiary will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. As at June 30, 2020, the Company's accrued deficit was $56,725,634, the Company had not advanced its mineral properties to commercial production and the Company has no other source of revenue from its operations. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the successful results from its mineral property exploration activities and its ability to attain profitable operations and generate funds there from and/or raise equity capital or borrowings sufficient to meet current and future obligations. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, the Company received cash of $844,816 from the 2018 British Columbia mining exploration tax credit (Notes 3 and 15) and $575,667 from the exercise of warrants.

During the period, there was a global pandemic outbreak of COVID-19.  The actual and threatened spread of the virus globally has had a material adverse effect on the global economy and; specifically, the regional economies in which the Company operates.  The pandemic could continue to have a negative impact on the stock market, including trading prices of the Company's shares and its ability to raise new capital. These factors, among others, could have a significant impact on the Company's operations.  These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt upon the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

2. Basis of preparation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting.  These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

In the preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has used the same accounting policies and methods of computation as in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

References herein to "$" are to the Canadian dollar and "US$" are to the United States dollar.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on August 25, 2020.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

In July 2018, the Company sold a 2% NSR on all future metal production from the Turnagain Nickel-Cobalt Project.  The Company has the right to repurchase 0.5% of the 2% NSR ("Repurchase Option") for US$20 million, which if exercised would result in a 1.5% remaining NSR.  The one-time Repurchase Option is only exercisable prior to the fifth anniversary of the NSR Agreement.  The purchaser of the NSR has a right of first refusal on any future sale by Giga Metals of a royalty or product stream or similar instrument.

Basic and diluted loss per share

The Company has adopted an incentive stock option plan, which provides that the Board of Directors of the Company may from time to time, in its discretion, and in accordance with the Exchange requirements, grant to directors, officers, employees and technical consultants to the Company, non-transferable stock options to purchase common shares, provided that the number of common shares reserved for issuance will not exceed 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares. Such options will be exercisable for a period of up to 5 years from the date of grant. In connection with the foregoing, the number of common shares reserved for issuance to any one optionee will not exceed five percent (5%) of the issued and outstanding common shares and the number of common shares reserved for issuance to all investor relations and technical consultants will not exceed two percent (2%) of the issued and outstanding common shares. Options may be exercised no later than 90 days following cessation of the optionee's position with the Company or 30 days following cessation of an optionee conducting investor relations activities' position.

12. Financial instruments and financial risk management

The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board of Directors approves and monitors the risk management processes, inclusive of documented investment policies, counterparty limits, and controlling and reporting structures. The type of risk exposure and the way in which such exposure is managed is provided as follows:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company's primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash held in bank accounts. All of the cash is deposited in bank accounts held with one major bank in Canada. Since all of the Company's cash is held by one bank there is a concentration of credit risk. This risk is managed by using major banks that are high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The Company's secondary exposure to risk is on its other receivables. This risk is minimal as receivables consist primarily of refundable government taxes.

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 has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the Company's normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company ensures that there are sufficient funds to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents as well as the timing of British Columbia mining tax credits.

Historically, the Company's sole source of funding has been the issuance of equity securities for cash, primarily through private placements. The Company's access to financing is always uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant equity funding.

The following is an analysis of the contractual maturities of the Company's non-derivative financial liabilities as at June 30, 2020:

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The Company has exposure to foreign exchange risk with respect to its cash balances.  As at June 30, 2020, the Company had a nominal amount of cash held in US dollars.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any significant interest rate risk.

Other Price Risk

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value of a financial instrument changes due to market risks other than foreign exchange risk or interest rate risk.  The Company has no exposure to this risk.

  • Level 3 - Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The following is an analysis of the Company's financial assets measured at fair value as at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
