1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

Rise Gold Corp. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated as Atlantic Resources Inc. in the State of Nevada on February 9, 2007 and is in the exploration stage. On April 11, 2012, the Company merged its wholly-owned subsidiary, Patriot Minefinders Inc., a Nevada corporation, in and to the Company to effect a name change to Patriot Minefinders Inc. On January 14, 2015, the Company completed a name change to Rise Resources Inc. in the same manner. On April 7, 2017, the Company changed its name to Rise Gold Corp. These mergers were carried out solely for the purpose of effecting these changes of names.

On February 16, 2015, the Company increased its authorized capital from 21,000,000 shares to 400,000,000 shares.

On January 29, 2016, the Company completed an initial public offering in Canada and began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE”) on February 1, 2016. On November 28, 2017, the Company ceased trading on the OTC Pink Market and began trading on the OTCQB Venture Market.

The Company is in the early stages of exploration and, as is common with any exploration company, it raises financing for its acquisition activities. The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a loss of $2,697,383 for the three-month period ended October 31, 2019 and has accumulated a deficit of $15,521,976. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to maintain continued support from its shareholders and creditors and to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms advantageous to the Company. However, management believes that the Company has sufficient working capital to meet its projected minimum financial obligations for the next fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

At October 31, 2019, the Company had working capital of $2,106,577.
