CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

   
   

 

 

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Shareholders and Directors of

Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd. (the “Company”), as of July 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for the years ended July 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of July 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended July 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company had a loss for the year of $153,715, an accumulated deficit of $30,136,646 and has a working capital deficiency of $2,995,655, all of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 1999.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

1. Nature and Continuance of Operations

 

Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd. is a Canadian public company incorporated in British Columbia on August 3, 1982. The Company’s corporate office is located at 1040 West Georgia Street, 15th Floor, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The Company most recently focused on evaluating mineral prospects for potential acquisition and exploration in British Columbia. The Company continues to investigate potential opportunities. During the year ended July 31, 2018, the Company consolidated its share capital on a ten-to-one basis. These consolidated financial statements reflect the share consolidation; all common shares have been retroactively restated.

 

These consolidated financial statements (the “Financial Statements”) of the Company as at and for the year ended July 31, 2019, include Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd. and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Company”). Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd. is the ultimate parent entity of the group.

 

These Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As at July 31, 2019, the Company had cash of $72,373, a working capital deficit, negative net assets, and is in default of a related party loan (Note 7). The Company’s continuing operations are dependent upon new projects, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete exploration of any new projects, the ability to obtain the necessary permits to explore, develop, and mine new projects, and the future profitable production of any mine. These material uncertainties raise substantial doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

Substantially all of the Company’s liabilities at July 31, 2019, were payable to Hunter Dickinson Services Inc. (“HDSI”), a related party with whom the Company has reached a debt settlement agreement (note 7(b)).

 

Additional debt or equity financing will be required to fund acquisition of mineral property interests. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional financial resources or achieve positive cash flows. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate additional financing, it will need to curtail its expenditures further, until additional funds can be raised through financing activities.

 

These Financial Statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Financial Statements are described below. These policies have been consistently applied for all years presented, unless otherwise stated.

 

   

QUARTZ MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

(a) Statement of compliance

 

These Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), effective for the Company’s fiscal year ended July 31, 2019.

 

The Company’s Board of Directors authorized issuance of these Financial Statements on October 29, 2019.

 

(b) Basis of presentation and consolidation

 

These Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments measured at fair value. In addition, these Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

 

These Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and the subsidiaries that it controls. Control is achieved when the Company is exposed to, 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. Intercompany balances and transactions including any unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

 

At July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018, the Company held a 100% interest in QZMG Resources Ltd., a company that holds a 100% interest in Wavecrest Resources Inc.

 

(c) Significant accounting estimates and judgments

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The impact of such estimates is pervasive throughout the 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 future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the subjective inputs and assumptions can materially affect fair value estimates.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

Specific areas where significant estimates or judgments exist are:

 

Sources of estimation uncertainty:

 

  Provisions for income taxes are an estimate of the amount expected to be paid based on a qualitative assessment of all relevant factors. The Company reviews the adequacy of these provisions at the end of each reporting period. However, it is possible that at some future date a change in tax liabilities or taxes recoverable could result from audits by taxation authorities. Where the outcome of these tax-related matters is different from the amounts that were originally recorded, such differences will affect the tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
     
  The Company grants stock options to directors, officers, employees, and consultants. The fair value of stock options is measured on the grant date, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is recognized over the vesting period of the related options. Option pricing models require the input of the subjective assumptions including expected price volatility, interest rate, expiry date, and forfeiture rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and the Company’s net loss and equity-settled share-based payment reserve.

 

Critical accounting judgments:

 

  Assessment of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern;

 

(d) Foreign currency

 

The functional and presentational currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian Dollar (“CAD”).

 

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the Company are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of transactions. At each financial position reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not re-translated. Gains and losses arising on translation are included in profit or loss for the year.

 

(e) Financial instruments

 

Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes party to the contracts that give rise to them. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets and liabilities at initial recognition, and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates such classification at each financial year-end. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments.

 

On August 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”), which replaces IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”) in its entirety. IFRS 9 provides a revised model for the recognition and measurement of financial instruments, and a single, forward-looking ‘expected loss’ impairment model. The Company has applied the changes in accounting policy retrospectively; however, in accordance with the transitional provisions in IFRS 9, comparative information has not been restated. The adoption of IFRS 9 did not impact the carrying value of financial assets or financial liabilities on the transition date.

 

IFRS 9 largely retains the existing requirements of IAS 39 for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities.

 

   

QUARTZ MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

IFRS 9 eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories for financial assets of held to maturity, loans and receivables, and available-for-sale. Under IFRS 9, on initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as measured at: amortized cost; fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) (debt/equity investment); or, fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”). The classification of financial assets under IFRS 9 is generally based on the business model in which a financial asset is managed and its contractual cash flow characteristics.

 

A financial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a significant financing component that is initially measured at the transaction price) is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not measured at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition. The directly attributable transaction costs of a financial asset classified at FVTPL are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

 

Measurement

 

Financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost

 

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost if it meets both the following conditions and is not designated as FVTPL:

 

  it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows; and,
     
  its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The amortized cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. Any gain or loss on the derecognition of the financial asset is recognized in profit or loss.

 

Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income

 

A receivable investment is measured at FVTOCI if it meets both the following conditions and is not designated as FVTPL:

 

  it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets; and,
     
  its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

 

On the initial recognition of an equity instrument that is not held for trading, the Company may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis.

 

   

QUARTZ MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

Receivable investments measured at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses, and impairment are recognized in profit or loss. Other net gains and losses are measured in OCI. On de-recognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassified to profit or loss.

 

Equity investments measured at FVTOCI are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognized as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognized in OCI and are never reclassified to profit or loss.

 

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss

 

All financial assets not classified as measured at amortized cost or measured at FVTOCI, as described above, are measured at FVTPL; this includes all derivative financial assets. On initial recognition, the Company may irrevocably designate a financial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortized cost or measured at FVTOCI as FVTPL if doing so eliminates, or significantly reduces, an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are subsequently measured at fair value and transaction costs are expenses in profit or loss. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognized in profit or loss.

 

Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost

 

An ‘expected credit loss’ impairment model applies which requires a loss allowance to be recognized based on expected credit losses. The estimated present value of future cash flows associated with the asset is determined and an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between this amount and the carrying amount as follows: the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to estimated present value of the future cash flows associated with the asset, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate, either directly or through the use of an allowance account and the resulting loss is recognized in profit or loss for the period. In a subsequent period, if the amount of the impairment loss related to financial assets measured at amortized cost decreases, 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.

 

Derecognition

 

Financial assets

 

The Company derecognizes financial assets only when the contractual rights to cash flows from the financial assets expire, or when it transfers the financial assets and substantially all of the associated risks and rewards of ownership to another entity. Gains and losses on derecognition are generally recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

(f) Exploration and evaluation expenditures

 

Exploration and evaluation expenditures are expenditures incurred by the Company in connection with the exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources before the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable.

 

Exploration and evaluation expenditures are expensed as incurred, except for initial expenditures associated with the acquisition of exploration and evaluation assets through a business combination or an asset acquisition.

 

Exploration and evaluation expenditures include the cash consideration and the estimated fair market value of common shares on the date of issue or as otherwise provided under the relevant agreements for exploration costs.

 

Administrative expenditures related to exploration activities are expensed in the period incurred.

 

Mineral property interests

 

Expenditures incurred by the Company in connection with a mineral property after the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource are demonstrable are capitalized. Such amounts are then amortized over the estimated life of the property following the commencement of commercial production, or are written off if the property is sold, allowed to lapse, or abandoned, or when impairment has been determined to have occurred.

 

Mineral property interests, if any, are assessed for impairment if (i) sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability, and (ii) facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

 

Mineral property interests attributable to an area of interest are tested for impairment and then reclassified to mineral property and development assets within property, plant, and equipment once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable.

 

Recoverability of the carrying amount of mineral property interests is dependent on successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, a sale of the respective areas of interest.

 

(g) Impairment of non-financial assets

 

At the end of each reporting period, the carrying amounts of the Company’s 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 greater of (i) fair value less costs to sell, and (ii) value in use. Fair value is estimated 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 discount rate that reflects current assessments of the Company’s cost of capital 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 an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss for the period. 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.

 

   

QUARTZ MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

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 to an amount that 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.

 

(h) Share capital

 

Common shares of the Company are classified as equity. Transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of common shares and share purchase options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

 

When the Company issues common shares for consideration other than cash, the transaction is measured at fair value based on the quoted market price of the Company’s common shares on the date of issuance.

 

(i) Loss per share

 

Loss per share is computed by dividing the losses attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is determined by adjusting the losses attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, such as options granted to employees. The dilutive effect of options assumes that the proceeds to be received on the exercise of share purchase options are applied to repurchase common shares at the average market price for the reporting period. Share purchase options are included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share only to the extent that the market price of the common shares exceeds the exercise price of the share purchase options. The effect of anti-dilutive factors is not considered when computed diluted loss per share.

 

(j) Share-based payments

 

Share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the instruments at the grant date. The fair value determined at the grant date is charged to operations over the vesting period, based on the Company’s estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest. The Company revises the estimate on each reporting date and the effect of the change is recognized in profit or loss.

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

Share-based payment transactions with other parties are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received, except where the fair value cannot be estimated reliably, in which case they are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted, measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders the service.

 

(k) Rehabilitation provision

 

An obligation to incur rehabilitation and site restoration costs arises when environmental disturbance is caused by the exploration, development, or ongoing production of a mineral property interest. Such costs arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work, discounted to their net present value, are provided for, and capitalized, at the start of each project, as soon as the obligation to incur such costs arises. These costs are charged against earnings over the life of the operation.

 

The Company has no material rehabilitation and site restoration costs.

 

(l) Income taxes

 

Income tax on the profit or loss for the years presented comprises of current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

 

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

 

Deferred tax is calculated by providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

 

The following temporary differences are not provided for:

 

  goodwill not deductible for tax purposes;
     
  the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit; and,
     
  differences relating to investments in subsidiaries, associates, and joint ventures to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future.

 

The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the financial position reporting date applicable to the period of expected realization or settlement.

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized.

 

Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognized at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividend.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities, 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.

 

(m) Changes in accounting policies and new accounting pronouncements

 

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019:

 

  IFRS 16, Leases

5. Capital and Reserves

 

(a) Authorized share capital

 

At July 31, 2019, the authorized share capital of the Company comprised an unlimited number of common shares without par value and an unlimited number of preferred shares without par value.

 

No preferred shares have been issued to date. All issued common shares are fully paid.

 

On December 27, 2017, the Company completed a private placement and issued 417,148 common shares at a price of $1.10 for gross proceeds of $458,863.

 

(b) Equity-settled share-based payments

 

The Company has a share purchase option plan (the “Plan”) approved by the Company’s shareholders that allows the Board of Directors to grant share purchase options, subject to regulatory terms and approval, to its officers, directors, employees, and service providers. The Plan is based on the maximum number of eligible shares equaling 10% of the Company’s outstanding common shares, calculated from time to time.

 

The exercise price of each share purchase option is set by the Board of Directors at the time of grant but cannot be less than the five-day volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s shares calculated on the day prior to the grant. Share purchase options may have a maximum term of up to five years and typically terminate 90 days following the termination of the optionee’s employment or engagement, except in the case of retirement or death. The vesting period for share purchase options is at the discretion of the Board of Directors at the time the options are granted.

 

The following summarizes the changes in the Company’s share purchase options:

 

Number of options with an exercise price of $0.45  Year ended July 31, 
   2019   2018   2017 
Options outstanding at the beginning of year           76,800 
Expired during the year           (76,800)
Options outstanding and exercisable at the end of year            

 

The weighted average contractual remaining life of the share purchase options outstanding and exercisable at July 31, 2019, was nil (July 31, 2018 – nil, July 31, 2017 – nil).

 

(c) Stock Consolidation

 

On December 29, 2017, the Company announced consolidation (the “Consolidation”) of its common shares on the basis of one (1) post-Consolidation common share for every ten (10) pre-Consolidation common shares effective on January 2, 2018. The Consolidation was approved by the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V), and a related bulletin was issued by the TSX-V on December 29, 2017.

(b) Entities with Significant Influence over the Company

 

Hunter Dickinson Inc. (“HDI”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary HDSI are private companies established by a group of mining professionals. HDSI provides contract services for a number of mineral exploration and development companies, and also to companies that are outside of the mining and mineral development space. The Company acquires services from a number of related and arms-length contractors, and it is at the Company’s discretion that HDSI provides certain contract services.

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Chief Financial Officer, and Corporate Secretary are employees of HDSI and are contracted to work for the Company under an employee secondment agreement between the Company and HDSI.

 

Pursuant to an agreement dated June 1, 2008, HDSI provides certain cost effective technical, geological, corporate communications, regulatory compliance, and administrative and management services to the Company, on a non-exclusive basis as needed and as requested by the Company.

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

The Company is not obligated to acquire any minimum amount of services from HDSI. The monetary amount of the services received from HDSI in a given period of time is a function of annually set and agreed charge-out rates for and the time spent by each HDSI employee engaged by the Company.

 

HDSI also incurs third-party costs on behalf of the Company. Such third party costs include, for example, directors and officers insurance, travel, conferences, and communication services. Third-party costs are billed at cost, without markup.

 

There are no ongoing contractual or other commitments resulting from the Company’s transactions with HDSI, other than the payment for services already rendered and billed. The agreement may be terminated upon 60 days’ notice by either the Company or HDSI.

 

Transactions with HDSI parties were as follows:

 

   Year ended July 31, 
   2019   2018   2017

  makes a cash payment of $180,207; and
     
  issues 600,000 shares

 

The cash payment of $180,207 has been paid. Completion of the share portion of the settlement agreement with HDSI has been deferred and will occur at a mutually agreed date.

As of July 31, 2019, the principal amount is due and has not been repaid. Interest payable of $1,209 has been accrued on the loan. The Company intends to negotiate an extension to the loan term.

8. Operating Segments

 

The Company operates in a single reportable operating segment – the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of mineral property interests. The Company is currently focused on the acquisition and exploration of mineral property interests in Canada. The Company’s only long-term asset is located in the USA.

 

9. Taxation

 

(a) Provision for current tax

 

No provision has been made for current income taxes, as the Company has no taxable income.

 

(b) Provision for deferred tax

 

As future taxable profits of the Company are uncertain, no deferred tax asset has been recognized.

Total  $5,874,000   $4,347,000   $196,000 

 

11. Financial instruments

 

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy according to the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgement and may affect placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The hierarchy is as follows:

 

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: 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: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

The carrying value of cash, amounts receivable, amounts payable and other liabilities, due to related party, and loan payable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the financial instruments. Cash is classified as fair value through profit or loss and measured at fair value using level 1 inputs.

 

12. Financial Risk Management

 

The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board 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:

 

(a) Credit risk

 

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its liquid financial assets including cash and amounts receivable. The Company limits its exposure to credit risk on liquid financial assets by only investing its cash with high-credit quality financial institutions in business and savings accounts. Receivables are due primarily from a government agency.

 

   

QUARTZ MOUNTAIN RESOURCES LTD.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JULY 31, 2019, 2018 AND 2017

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and amounts receivable represent the maximum exposure to credit risk.

 

(b) Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations when they become due. The Company does not have sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, and accordingly is exposed to liquidity risk.

 

The following obligations existed at July 31, 2019:

 

   Total   Less than 1 year   1-5 years 
Amounts payable and other liabilities  $2,062   $2,062   $ 
Due to related parties (note 7)   2,972,945    2,972,945     
Loan payable   101,209    101,209     
Total  $3,076,216   $3,076,216   $ 

 

The following obligations existed at July 31, 2018:

 

   Total   Less than 1 year   1-5 years 
Due to related parties (note 7)  $2,916,973   $2,916,973   $ 
Total  $2,916,973   $2,916,973   $ 

 

(c) Interest rate risk

 

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk arises from the interest rate impact on cash. The Company’s practice has been to invest cash at floating rates of interest, in order to maintain liquidity, while achieving a satisfactory return for shareholders. There is minimal risk that the Company would recognize any loss because of a decrease in the fair value of any demand bank investment certificates included in cash as they are generally held with large financial institutions.

 

The Company from time to time has debt instruments and is exposed to risk in the event of interest rate fluctuations. The Company has not entered into any interest rate swaps or other financial arrangements that mitigate the exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

 

(d) Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The Company is not subject to significant market risk.

 

(e) Capital management objectives

 

The Company’s primary objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to potentially provide returns for shareholders, and to have sufficient liquidity available to fund ongoing expenditures and suitable business opportunities as they arise.

 

The Company considers the components of shareholders’ deficiency as capital. The Company manages its capital structure and adjusts it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue equity, sell assets, or return capital to shareholders as well as issue or repay debt.

 

The Company’s investment policy is to invest its cash in highly liquid short–term interest–bearing investments having maturity dates of three months or less from the date of acquisition and that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

 

There were no changes to the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended July 31, 2019.

 

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed equity requirements.
