PURSUANT TO PART 8 OF NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 51-102

ACQUISITION DATE: APRIL 26, 2013


Denison Mines Corp.

Form 51-102F4

Amended and Restated Business Acquisition Report

Item 1 – Identity of Company

 

1.1 Name and Address of Company

Denison Mines Corp. (“Denison”)

Atrium on Bay

Item 2 – Details of Acquisition

 

2.1 Nature of Business Acquired

On April 26, 2013 Denison acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Fission Energy Corp. (“Fission”) by way of a court approved plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to Section 192 of the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Arrangement was effected pursuant to an arrangement agreement dated effective March 7, 2013 (the “Arrangement Agreement”). Fission is a Canadian based uranium exploration company with properties located in Canada and internationally. Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, certain of Fission’s properties were spun out into a newly formed exploration company called Fission Uranium Corp. (“Fission Uranium”) and pursuant to the Arrangement, the shares of Fission Uranium were distributed to the former shareholders of Fission on the Closing Date (as defined below).

The Arrangement was approved by the shareholders and optionholders of Fission on April 23, 2013.

 

2.2 Acquisition Date

April 26, 2013 (the “Closing Date”).

 

2.3 Consideration

Under the terms of the Arrangement, the shareholders of Fission exchanged each common share of Fission held for (a) a new common share of Fission (“New Fission Share”) and (b) one common share in the capital of Fission Uranium. Subsequent to the exchange, each shareholder of a New Fission Share received 0.355 of one common share of Denison (the “Exchange Ratio”)and $0.0001 for each New Fission Share held. As a result, Denison acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Fission. Unexercised options to purchase Fission shares were exchanged for options to acquire common shares of Denison and Fission Uranium on the basis set out in the plan of arrangement. The holders of warrants to purchase Fission shares are entitled to receive, upon exercise of their warrants, the number of common shares of Denison and Fission Uranium which the warrantholders would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Arrangement, if immediately prior to the effective date the warrantholders had exercised their warrants.


2.4 Effect on Financial Position

There are no plans or proposals for material changes to the affairs of the acquired business that may have a significant effect on the results of operations and financial position of Denison.

 

2.5 Date of Report

September 6, 2013.

  i. Audited financial statements of Fission for the for the year ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011 which are attached as Schedule “A”;

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Shareholders of

Fission Energy Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Fission Energy Corp., which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at June 30, 2012 and 2011, and July 1, 2010 and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, 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, 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.

Auditors’ 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. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

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 auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. 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.

Fission Energy Corp.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

For the year ended June 30, 2012

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

1. Nature of operations

Fission Energy Corp. (the “Company”) was formed on July 17, 2007 under the laws of the Canada Business Corporations Act as a result of a plan of arrangement undertaken to reorganize Strathmore Minerals Corp. (“Strathmore”). The Company’s principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of exploration and evaluation interests. To date, the Company has not generated significant revenues from operations and is considered to be in the exploration stage. The Company’s head office is located at 700 – 1620 Dickson Ave., Kelowna, BC, V1Y 9Y2 and it is listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange under the symbol FIS and on the U.S. OTCQX under the symbol FSSIF.

The Company has not yet determined whether its exploration and evaluation assets contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of the amounts shown for the exploration and evaluation assets, including acquisition costs, is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of those reserves and upon future profitable production.

These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation. Continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to develop its exploration and evaluation assets, receive continued financial support, complete equity financings, or generate profitable operations in the future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Significant accounting policies

 

  (a) Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRICs”) and the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SICSs”).

These are the Company’s first consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Previously the Company prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The comparative figures presented in these financial statements are in accordance with IFRS.

 

  (b) Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair value.

For the year ended June 30, 2012

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

 

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  (c) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the following subsidiaries:

 

Name of Subsidiary

   Place of
Incorporation
   Ownership
Interest
    Basis of Presentation

Fission Energy Peru S.A.C

   Peru      100   Consolidated

Minera Peruran S.A.C

   Peru      100   Consolidated

Waterbury Lake Uranium Corporation

   Canada      60.00   Proportionately consolidated

Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership

   Canada      59.99   Proportionately consolidated

The Company consolidates the wholly owned subsidiaries on the basis that it controls these subsidiaries through its ability to govern their financial and operating policies. The Company also proportionally consolidates its interest in joint ventures, Waterbury Lake Uranium Corporation (“WLUC”) and Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership (“WLULP”), based on its ownership interests.

Intercompany transactions and resulting balances with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, and WLUC and WLULP have been eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interests.

 

  (d) Financial Assets

All financial assets are initially recorded at fair value and designated upon initial recognition into one of the following four categories: held to maturity, available for sale, loans and receivables or at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”).

Financial assets are designated as FVTPL if the Company manages such investments and makes sure purchase and sale decisions are based on the fair value in accordance with the Company’s risk management strategy. Financial assets classified as FVTPL are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized through profit or loss.

Transaction costs associated with FVTPL financial assets are expensed as incurred, while transaction costs associated with all other financial assets are included in the initial carrying amount of the asset.

The Company has classified its cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments as FVTPL. Financial assets classified as loans and receivables and held to maturity assets are measured at amortized cost. The Company’s amounts receivable are classified as loans and receivables. Financial assets classified as available for sale are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income and loss except for losses in value that are considered other than temporary which are recognized in profit or loss. At June 30, 2012, June 30, 2011, and July 1, 2010, the Company has not classified any financial assets as available for sale.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  (e) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits in banks and redeemable term deposits that are readily convertible to cash with an original term less than 90 days. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested with major financial institutions and are not invested in any asset backed deposits/investments.

 

  (f) Short-term Investments

Marketable securities are recorded at their fair market value on the date of acquisition and are classified as FVTPL. The carrying value of the securities is adjusted at each subsequent reporting period to the fair value (based upon the market price and the Bank of Canada quoted exchange rate if applicable) with the resulting unrealized gains or losses included in profit or loss for the period. Transaction costs relating to the purchase of marketable securities are expensed directly to profit or loss.

 

  (g) Foreign Currency Translation

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars. The financial statements for each of the Company’s subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the subsidiary operates (the “functional currency”). Each entity in the Company determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.

The functional currency of the Company, the Company’s subsidiaries, and the Company’s joint ventures are as follows:

 

  (i) Fission Energy Corp. – Canadian dollar

 

  (ii) Fission Energy Peru S.A.C. – Peruvian New Sol

 

  (iii) Minera Peruran S.A.C. – Peruvian New Sol

 

  (iv) Waterbury Lake Uranium Corporation – Canadian dollar

 

  (v) Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership – Canadian dollar

Transactions and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the Company’s functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at exchange rates prevailing at the reporting date are recognized in profit or loss.

Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss.

  (g) Foreign Currency Translation (continued)

 

Foreign Operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and income and expenses are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognized in profit or loss.

 

  (h) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis at the following annual rates based on estimated useful lives:

 

•   Geological equipment

     20

•   Office equipment

     20

•   Computer equipment

     30

•   Computer software

     50

•   Vehicles

     30

•   Building

     4

An item of property and equipment 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.

When an item of property and equipment comprises major components with different useful lives, the components are accounted for as separate items of property and equipment.

 

  (i) Exploration and Evaluation Assets

The Company records exploration and evaluation assets which consists of the costs of acquiring licenses for the right to explore and costs associated with exploration and evaluation activity, at cost. All direct and indirect costs related to the acquisition, exploration and development of exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized by property.

The exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized until the exploration and evaluation assets to which they relate are placed into production, disposed of through sale or where management has determined there to be an impairment. If an exploration and evaluation property interest is abandoned, both the acquisition costs and the exploration and evaluation cost will be written off to operations in the period of abandonment.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  (i) Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued)

 

On an ongoing basis, exploration and evaluation assets are reviewed on a property-by-property basis to consider if there are any indicators of impairment. If any indication of impairment exists, an estimate of the exploration and evaluation assets’ recoverable amount is calculated. The recoverable amount is determined as the fair value less costs to sell for the exploration and evaluation property interest and their value in use. The fair value less costs to sell and the value in use is determined for an individual exploration and evaluation property interest, unless the exploration and evaluation property interest does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of other exploration and evaluation property interests. If this is the case, the exploration and evaluation property interests are grouped together into cash generating units (“CGUs”) for impairment purposes.

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 profit or loss for the period.

The Company’s determination for impairment is also based on:

 

  (i) whether the exploration programs on the exploration and evaluation assets have significantly changed, such that previously identified resource targets are no longer being pursued;

 

  (ii) whether exploration results to date are promising and whether additional exploration work is being planned in the foreseeable future; and

 

  (iii) whether remaining claim tenure terms are sufficient to conduct necessary studies or exploration work.

Where an impairment subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is increased to the revised estimate and 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 CGU) in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in the period in which that determination was made in profit or loss.

 

  (j) Financial Liabilities

All financial liabilities are initially recorded at fair market value and designated upon initial recognition as FVTPL or other financial liabilities.

Financial liabilities classified as other financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. After initial recognition, other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or, where appropriate, a shorter period. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities and future income tax liability are classified as other financial liabilities.

  (j) Financial Liabilities (continued)

 

Derivatives, including separate embedded derivatives are also classified as FVTPL and recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. The Company has no liabilities or derivatives classified as FVTPL. Fair value changes on financial liabilities classified as FVTPL are recognized in profit or loss.

 

  (k) Flow-through Shares

Resource expenditure deductions for income tax purposes related to exploration activities funded by flow-through share arrangements are renounced to investors under Canadian income tax legislation. On issuance, the Company separates the flow-through share into i) a flow-through share premium, equal to the difference between the current market price of the Company’s common shares and the issue price of the flow through share and ii) share capital. Upon expenses being incurred, the Company recognizes a deferred tax liability for the amount of tax reduction renounced to the shareholders. The premium is recognized as other income and the related deferred tax is recognized as a tax provision.

Proceeds received from the issuance of flow-through shares must be expended on Canadian resource property exploration within a period of two years. Failure to expend such funds after the end of the first year as required under the Canadian income tax legislation will result in a Part XII.6 tax to the Company on flow-through proceeds renounced under the “Look-back” Rule. When applicable, this tax is accrued as a financial expense until paid.

 

  (l) Share-based Payments

The Company has a stock option plan whereby it is authorized to grant stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants. Directors, officers, employees and consultants are classified as employees who render personal services to the entity and either i) regarded as employees for legal or tax purposes, ii) work for an entity under its direction in the same way as directors, officers, employees and consultants who are regarded as employees for legal or tax purposes, or iii) the services rendered are similar to those rendered by employees.

The fair value of stock options issued to employees is measured on the grant date, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with assumptions for risk-free interest rates, dividend yields, volatility of the expected market price of the Company’s common shares and an expected life of the options. The fair value less estimated forfeitures is charged either to profit or loss, or capitalized to the exploration and evaluation costs over the vesting period of the related options with a corresponding credit to other capital reserves in equity. Stock options granted with graded vesting schedules are accounted for as separate grants with different vesting periods and fair values.

2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  (l) Share-based Payments (continued)

 

The share-based awards issued to non-employees are generally measured on the fair value of goods or services received unless that fair value cannot be reliably measured. This fair value shall be measured at the date the entity obtains the goods or the counterparty renders service. If the fair value of goods or services received cannot be reliably measured, the fair value of the share-based payments to non-employees are periodically re-measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model until the counterparty performance is complete, and any change therein is recognized over the vesting period of the award. The cost of share-based payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the date of grant are measured and recognized at that date.

When the stock options are exercised, the proceeds are credited to share capital and the fair value of the options exercised is reclassified from other capital reserves to share capital.

The estimated forfeitures are based on historical experience and reviewed on a quarterly basis to determine the appropriate forfeiture rate based on past, present and expected forfeitures. Management uses the dynamic model to calculate the estimated forfeitures.

 

  (m) Interest in Joint Venture

The Company has an interest in the Waterbury Lake property through jointly controlled entities, WLUC and WLULP, whereby the venturers have a contractual arrangement that establishes joint control over the economic activities of the entity. The agreement requires unanimous agreement for financial and operating decisions among the venturers. The Company recognizes its interest in the joint venture using the proportionate consolidation method. The Company combines its proportionate share of each of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the joint venture with similar items, line by line, in its consolidated financial statements.

Adjustments are made in the Company’s consolidated financial statements to eliminate the Company’s share of intercompany balances and transactions. The joint venture is proportionately consolidated until the date on which the Company ceases to have a joint control over the joint venture.

 

  (n) Income Taxes

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the local taxable income or loss for the year, using local tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the end of each reporting period, and includes any adjustments to tax payable or receivable in previous years.

Deferred income taxes are recorded using the liability method whereby deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they are realized or settled, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

  (n) Income Taxes (continued)

 

Deferred tax is not recognized for temporary differences which arise on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting, nor taxable profit or loss.

A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future tax profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

 

  (o) Earnings (Loss) per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for its common shares, calculated by dividing the earnings (loss) attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share does not adjust the gain or loss attributable to common shareholders when the effect is anti-dilutive.

 

  (p) Related Party Transactions

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant control over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources, services or obligations between related parties.

 

  (q) New Standards, Amendments and Interpretations Not Yet Effective

Certain new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards have been issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods beginning after July 1, 2010, or later periods. Some updates that are not applicable or are not consequential to the Company may have been excluded from the list below.

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2012

IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements

The presentation in the statement of shareholders’ equity or in the notes to the financial statements of other comprehensive income is amended. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

IAS 12, Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets

An amendment was made to IAS 12 that provides a practical solution to determine the expected manner of recovery of investment properties as it relates to the accounting for deferred income taxes. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

IAS 24, Related Party Disclosures

The definition of related parties is clarified. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

  (q) New Standards, Amendments and Interpretations Not Yet Effective (continued)

 

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2013

IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures

The amendments to disclosure requirements in IFRS 7 emphasize the interaction between quantitative and qualitative disclosures and the nature and extent of risks and amends credit risk disclosures. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 10, Consolidated financial statements

IFRS 10 requires an entity to consolidate an investee when it 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 existing 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. IFRS 10 replaces SIC-12 Consolidation-Special Purpose Entities and parts of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the final standard is expected to have on its consolidated financial statements.

IAS 28, Investments in Associates

The standard was amended to include joint ventures in its scope and to address the changes in IFRS 10 to IFRS 12. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the application of IAS 28 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, which supersedes IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC 13, Jointly Controlled Entities – Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers. The standard requires the Company to classify its interest in a joint arrangement as a joint venture or joint operation. This standard will eliminate the use of proportionate consolidation when accounting for joint ventures, as they will be accounted for using the equity method, whereas joint operations will be accounted for by recognizing the venturer’s share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management anticipates that this standard will be adopted in the Company’s financial statements for the period beginning July 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact IFRS 11 is expected to have on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

The IASB has issued IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interest in Other Entities, which includes disclosure requirements about subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates, as well as unconsolidated structured entities and replaces existing disclosure requirements. This standard will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. The Company is currently analyzing the possible impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement

IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement: effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted, sets out in a single IFRS a framework for measuring fair value and new required disclosures about fair value measurements. Management anticipates that this standard will be adopted in the Company's financial statements for the period beginning July 1, 2013, and has not yet considered the potential impact of the adoption of IFRS 13.

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2015

IFRS 9, Financial instruments

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. On December 16, 2011, the IASB amended the effective date of IFRS 9 to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 9 introduces new requirements for the impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost and classification and measurement of financial instruments. Management anticipates that this standard will be adopted in the Company's financial statements for the period beginning July 1, 2015, and has not yet considered the potential impact of the adoption of IFRS 9.

 

3. First Time Adoption of IFRS

The Company has adopted IFRS with a transition date of July 1, 2010 (“Transition Date”). Under IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, the IFRS are applied retrospectively at the transition date with all adjustments to assets and liabilities as stated under Canadian GAAP taken to deficit unless certain exemptions are applied.

The guidance for first-time adoption of IFRS is set out in IFRS 1. IFRS 1 provides for certain mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions for first time adopters of IFRS. The Company is applying the following exemptions on first-time adoption of IFRS:

 

    Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero as at transition date; and

 

    IFRS 2 Share-based Compensation has only been applied to equity instruments granted after November 7, 2002 which had not vested as at the Transition Date.

The IFRS 1 elections, identified above, and the significant accounting policies, set out in note 2, have been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements and selected comparative information presented below. The following tables reconcile the Company’s statement of financial position, statement of comprehensive loss and statement of cash flows prepared in accordance with IFRS with those previously prepared and reported in accordance with Canadian GAAP.

3. First time adoption of IFRS (continued)

 

Notes to the IFRS reconciliation are as follows:

 

  (a) Share-based compensation

Under Canadian GAAP, the Company measured share-based compensation related to share purchase options as the fair value of the options granted using Black-Scholes option pricing model and recognized this expense over the vesting period of the options. IFRS 2 Share-based Compensation, which is similar to Canadian GAAP, requires the Company to measure share-based compensation related to share purchase options granted at the fair value of the options on the date of the grant and recognize such expense over the vesting period of the options. IFRS 2 also requires each tranche in an award with graded vesting be considered as a separate grant with different vesting date and fair value whereas the total fair value of the award was recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period under Canadian GAAP.

IFRS 2 also has a broader definition of an employee allowing the Company to group employees and others providing similar services together. This has resulted in certain consultants to be classified as employees.

Adjustments were calculated only for unvested options issued and outstanding after the Transition Date. As a result of these differences, the Company has adjusted its share-based payments. The amounts recorded in other capital reserves for share-based compensation increased by $182,201 as at July 1, 2010, increased by $263,570 for the year ended June 30, 2011 (cumulatively increased by $445,771). In addition, exploration and evaluation assets have increased by $441,042, net of $7,177 write-down, as at June 30, 2011.

 

  (b) Flow-through shares

Current Canadian tax legislation permits mining entities to issue flow-through shares to investors, which are securities issued to investors, whereby the deductions for tax purposes related to exploration and evaluation expenditures may be claimed by investors instead of the Company. Under Canadian GAAP, in accordance with EIC-146 Flow-through Shares, a deferred tax liability is recognized on the date that the Company files renouncement documents with the Canadian tax authorities assuming there is reasonable assurance the expenditures will be made.

In accordance with IFRS, the issue of flow-through share is in substance an issue of ordinary shares and the sale of tax deductions. At the time the Company issues flow-through shares, the sale of tax deductions is deferred and presented as other liabilities in the statement of financial position to recognize the obligation to incur and renounce eligible exploration and evaluation expenditures. Accordingly, the Company recognized a flow-through share premium of $553,350 and of $440,022 for the flow-through share issuances on April 7, 2010 and December 2, 2010 respectively.

As the renouncement documents have been filed with the tax authorities, the tax benefit passed to the shareholder and the liability has been recognized in profit or loss as a flow-through premium recovery during the year ended June 30, 2011.

3. First time adoption of IFRS (continued)

 

  (c) Income taxes

Unlike Canadian GAAP, IAS 12 prohibits the recognition of deferred taxes at the time of an acquisition where the transaction is not a business combination. Accordingly, as at June 30, 2011, the Company has reversed the deferred income tax liability of $2,000,000 and the related deferred income tax valuation allowance of $33,130 that was recognized on the acquisition of the additional 10% interest in WLULP as described in Note 8(c). In addition, in accordance with IFRS, the Company recognized $140,924 of deferred income tax in respect of prior years’ share issuance cost as a recovery in equity.

 

  (d) Foreign currency translation

In accordance with IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, each entity determines its functional currency. The wholly owned subsidiaries changed their functional currency from Canadian dollar to Peruvian New Sol. The carrying value of the Peruvian exploration and evaluation assets are written off at the end of each reporting period, and therefore there is no impact on the consolidated financial statements at the date of transition.

 

4. Key Estimates and Assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

 

  (a) Exploration and evaluation expenditure

The Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure results in certain items of expenditure being capitalized for an area of interest where it is considered likely to be recovered by future exploitation or sale where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of existence of reserves. This policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstance, in particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalized the expenditure under the policy, a judgment is made that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalized amount will be written off in the statement of comprehensive loss in the period when the new information becomes available.

 

  (b) Share-based compensation

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees and non-employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based compensation transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant.

4. Key Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

 

  (b) Share-based compensation (continued)

This estimate also requires the determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating share-based compensation transactions are disclosed in Note 10.

 

5. Short-term Investments

8. Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued)

 

Title to exploration and evaluation interests involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of title and/or ownership of claims and exploration and evaluation interests. The Company has investigated title to all of its exploration and evaluation interests, and to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its properties are in good standing.

 

  (a) North Shore Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in a property located in Alberta in fiscal 2008. The property is subject to a 0.75% net smelter returns royalty on certain mineral production and 4% gross overriding royalty on any diamond production from the property.

The Government of Alberta drafted the Lower Athabasca Regional Plan (“LARP”) to conserve land, which has resulted in some of metallic and industrial mineral claims to be under temporary restricted status, which includes some claims held by Fission. On August 22, 2012 the Government of Alberta approved the LARP, and the Company will not be permitted to continue exploration on claims within the zoned land. Accordingly the Company has recorded a write-down of $3,594,513 to the property. The Company will approach the Government of Alberta for compensation of all expenditures incurred plus loss of future opportunities.

 

  (b) Duddridge Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in north-central Saskatchewan in fiscal 2008.

 

  (c) Waterbury Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in Saskatchewan in fiscal 2008. On January 30, 2008, it completed an earn-in agreement on the property with the Korea Waterbury Uranium Limited Partnership (“KWULP”). Under the agreement, the Company granted KWULP the exclusive rights to earn up to a 50% interest in the Waterbury Lake property by funding $14,000,000 of expenditures on or before January 30, 2011. Additionally, the Company retained an overriding royalty interest in the property of 2% of net smelter returns. On April 29, 2010, KWULP had fully funded its $14,000,000 of expenditures and consequently earned a 50% interest in the property.

The earn-in agreement required that on completion of the earn-in period, the joint venture participants agree to form a joint control Limited Partnership to hold the property and on August 16, 2010 the Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership (“WLULP”) agreement was signed, and now supersedes the original earn-in agreement. WLULP was officially formed December 30, 2010.

The Company had 12 months from the completion of the earn-in agreement during which time it could acquire an additional 10% interest in WLULP for $6,000,000. On April 12, 2011, the Company exercised its back-in option by paying KWULP $6,000,000 and now holds a 60% interest in WLULP. The WLULP agreement also requires that the Company and its partners spend a total of $30,000,000 for exploration and evaluation costs over a three year period in proportion to their interest in WLULP, of which $21,903,339 has been incurred by WLULP as of June 30, 2012. The Company was appointed operator for WLULP and is entitled to a management fee equal to 10% of expenditures for operator services.

The joint venture participants share costs in proportion to their interest in the joint venture. This is presently a 50%—50% basis. In November 2011 one additional claim was staked and in December 2011 six claims were staked. During the year ended June 30, 2012, two claims were allowed to lapse. As a result of the two claims lapsing, the Company recorded a $1,976 write-down of acquisition costs and $12,162 write-down of exploration costs.

 

  (e) Davy Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in Saskatchewan in fiscal 2008.

 

  (f) Dieter Lake Property, Canada

In the event a uranium resource of more than 60 million pounds is confirmed at the property, the Company is required to issue 66,667 shares to the vendor. In August 2011, the Company staked one-hundred-seventy-eight claims.

 

  (g) Other Canadian Properties

 

  (i) Fort McLeod Property, Canada

The Company staked certain claims in fiscal 2010, however all claims lapsed during the year ended June 30, 2012 and the Company abandoned the property. The Company recorded a 100% write-down of exploration costs totaling $251.

 

  (ii) Caribou Mountains and Zoo Bay Properties, Canada

On November 30, 2007, the Company acquired a 100% interest in both the Caribou Mountains property in north-central Alberta and the Zoo Bay property in northern Saskatchewan. The Company issued a total of 300,000 common shares for the Caribou Mountains property and 700,000 common shares for the Zoo Bay property, together valued at $620,000.

Each broker warrant is exercisable into one common share of the Company for a period of 2 years at a price of $1.00 per share with an expiry date of February 24, 2013. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model included a volatility of 115%, risk free interest rate of 1.79%, expected life of 2 years, and a dividend rate of 0%. All warrants vested immediately on the date of grant.

10. Share capital and other capital reserves (continued)

 

  (a) Private placements (continued)

 

November 17, 2011

The Company completed a private placement of 11,800,000 flow-through common shares at $0.85 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $10,030,000. The Company paid agents’ commissions of $637,915 plus $77,771 of expenses and issued 623,701 non-transferable broker warrants with an attributed value of $364,064 based on the Black-Scholes pricing model which was included in other capital reserves. Each broker warrant is exercisable into one common share of the Company for a period of 2 years at a price of $0.85 per share with an expiry date of November 17, 2013. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model includes a volatility of 107%, risk free interest rate of 0.90%, expected life of 2 years, and a dividend rate of 0%. All warrants vested immediately on the date of grant. Since the Company’s share price increased between the date the consideration to be received for the flow through shares was set and the closing date, which was used for the transaction allocation under the residual method, no value was ascribed to the flow through liability.

 

  (b) Stock options and warrants

The Company has a stock option plan which allows the Board of Directors to grant stock options to employees, directors, officers, and consultants. The exercise price of each option is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant less any applicable discount. The options can be granted for a maximum term of five years and vesting terms are determined by the Board of Directors at the date of grant.

15. Contingency

In January 2008, the Company received an invoice in the amount of $182,616 from a Canadian drilling company for services allegedly performed during 2007. The plaintiff has commenced legal proceedings and the Company is defending itself against the action. No amount has been accrued in these financial statements in respect of the claim as the outcome is not determinable at this time. Any costs ultimately assessed against the Company in respect of this claim will be recorded in the period in which the actual determination of the liability, if any, is made.

 

16. Capital management

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue and exploration and development of its exploration and evaluation assets and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk.

The Company depends on external financing to fund its activities. The capital structure of the Company currently consists of common shares, stock options and share purchase warrants.

Changes in the equity accounts of the Company are disclosed in the statement of shareholders’ equity. 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, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. The issuance of common shares requires approval of the Board of Directors.

In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets, which are approved by the Board of Directors and updated as necessary depending on various factors, including capital deployment and general industry conditions. The Company anticipates continuing to access equity markets and the use of joint ventures to fund continued exploration and development of its exploration and evaluation assets and the future growth of the business.

17. Financial instruments and risk management

International Financial Reporting Standards 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures, establishes 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—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); and

Level 3—inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. For cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, carrying value is considered to be a reasonable approximation of fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of short term investments represents their quoted market price.

Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are designated as held for trading and therefore carried at fair value, with the unrealized gain or loss recorded on the statement of comprehensive loss.

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to a number of financial and market risks, including credit, liquidity and foreign exchange risks. The Company does not currently have in place any active hedging or derivative trading policies to manage these risks since the Company’s management does not believe that the current size, scale and pattern of its operations would warrant such hedging activities.

 

  (a) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financial instrument will not discharge its obligations, resulting in a financial loss to the Company. The Company has procedures in place to minimize its exposure to credit risk. Company management evaluates credit risk on an ongoing basis including counterparty credit rating and activities related to trade and other receivables and other counterparty concentrations as measured by amount and percentage.

The primary sources of credit risk for the Company arise from:

 

  1. Cash and cash equivalents;

 

  2. Short-term investments; and

 

  3. Amounts receivable.

The Company has not had any credit losses in the past, nor does it expect to have any credit losses in the future. At June 30, 2012, the Company has no financial assets that are past due or impaired due to credit risk defaults.

  (b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations with respect to financial liabilities as they fall due. The Company’s financial liabilities are comprised of accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company frequently assesses its liquidity position by reviewing the timing of amounts due and the Company’s current cash flow position to meet its obligations. The Company manages its liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and short-term investment balances to meet its anticipated operational needs.

The Company’s financial liabilities, consisting of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, arose as a result of exploration and development of its exploration and evaluation interests and other corporate expenses. Payment terms on these liabilities are typically 30 to 60 days from receipt of invoice and do not generally bear interest. The following table summarizes the remaining contractual maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities.

 

     Maturity      June 30      June 30      July 1

  (c) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value for assets classified as held-for-trading and available-for-sale or future cash flows for assets or liabilities considered to be held-to maturity, other financial liabilities and loans or receivables of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market conditions. The Company evaluates market risk on an ongoing basis and has established policies and procedures for mitigating its exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations. The Company is not exposed to interest rate risk, as it does not hold debt balances and is not charged interest on its accounts payable balances.

 

  (d) Foreign exchange risk

The Company has foreign subsidiaries and therefore foreign exchange risk exposures arise from transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Although the functional currency of the Company is Canadian dollars, the Company also conducts business in US Dollars (“USD”) and Peruvian New Soles (“PEN”). The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

17. Financial instruments and risk management (continued)

 

  (d) Foreign exchange risk (continued)

 

Exchange rate fluctuations may affect the costs that the Company incurs in its operations. However, although the Company’s costs are incurred primarily in Canadian dollars, any change in the value of PEN and USD against the Canadian dollar can affect the costs of operations and capital expenditures. The Company maintains its cash balances in Canadian dollars and exchanges currency to meet its PEN and USD obligations on an as needed basis, thereby reducing the exchange risk on cash balances.

The Company is exposed to currency risk through the following Canadian dollar equivalent of financial assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than Canadian dollars:

 

     June 30, 2012     June 30, 2011     July 1, 2010  
     PEN      USD     PEN      USD     PEN      USD  

Cash and cash equivalents

     3,719         10,995        4,171         16,450        3,868         15,738   

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

     —           (41,737     —           (4,983     —           (1,305
  

 

 

    

 

 

   

 

 

    

 

 

   

 

 

    

 

 

 
     3,719         (30,742     4,171         11,467        3,868         14,433   
  

 

 

    

 

 

   

 

 

    

 

 

   

 

 

    

 

 

 

Based on the above net exposures at June 30, 2012, a 10% change in USD against the Canadian dollar would result in a $1,099 (June 30, 2011—$1,147, July 1, 2010—$1,443) change in the Company’s net income or loss; similarly a 10% change in the PEN against the Canadian dollar would result in a $372 (June 30, 2011—$417, July 1, 2010—$387) change in the Company’s net income or loss.

 

18. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to June 30, 2012:

 

  (a) On July 5, 2012, the Company completed an Arrangement Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Pitchstone Exploration Ltd. (“Pitchstone”). Based on 45,208,185 Pitchstone shares outstanding, the Company issued 9,697,159 (ratio of 0.2145) of their Common Shares to complete the transaction, representing approximately 8.4% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common shares. The 3,825,000 Pitchstone options are exercisable into 820,463 Common Shares of the Company with exercise prices ranging from $0.70 to $2.00. The 2,878,490 Pitchstone warrants are exercisable into 617,436 Common Shares of the Company with exercise prices ranging from $0.65 to $1.17.

Pitchstone is a uranium exploration company operating in three districts in Canada and Namibia. The property portfolio features 13 projects in the eastern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, five of which are 100% owned. In addition, there are two joint venture projects in Namibia and several joint venture projects in the Hornby Bay Basin, Nunavut.

18. Subsequent Events (continued)

 

  (a) As Pitchstone is in the early stage of exploration and does not yet have any processes or outputs, the acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase of assets. The difference between the purchase consideration and the adjusted book values of Pitchstone’s assets and liabilities will be assigned to “Exploration and evaluation assets”. The purchase price of the acquisition will consist of the fair value of the Company’s Common Shares, based on the issuance of 9,697,159 Common shares at $0.445 per share for consideration of $4,315,236, the fair value of stock options and warrants and certain other transaction costs.

 

  (b) 70,000 stock options were expired/forfeited.

Fission Energy Corp. (the “Company”) was formed on July 17, 2007 under the laws of the Canada Business Corporations Act as a result of a plan of arrangement undertaken to reorganize Strathmore Minerals Corp. (“Strathmore”). The Company’s principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of exploration and evaluation assets. To date, the Company has not generated significant revenues from operations and is considered to be in the exploration stage. The Company’s head office is located at 700 – 1620 Dickson Ave., Kelowna, BC, V1Y 9Y2 and it is listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange under the symbol FIS and on the U.S. OTCQX under the symbol FSSIF.

The Company has not yet determined whether its exploration and evaluation assets contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable. The recoverability of the amounts shown for the exploration and evaluation assets, including acquisition costs, is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to complete the development of those reserves and upon future profitable production.

These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation. Continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to develop its exploration and evaluation assets, receive continued financial support, complete equity financings, or generate profitable operations in the future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Basis of Preparation

 

  (a) Statement of Compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRICs”) and the former Standing Interpretations Committee (“SICSs”). The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the board of directors on March 1, 2013.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2012 prepared in accordance with IFRS.

 

  (b) Basis of Presentation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments, which are measured at fair value.

The accounting policies applied in preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2012.

2. Basis of Preparation (continued)

 

  (b) Basis of Presentation (continued)

 

The IASB issued a number of new and revised International Accounting Standards, IFRS amendments and related interpretations which are effective for the Company’s financial year beginning on or after July 1, 2012. For the purpose of preparing and presenting the financial statements for the relevant periods, the Company has consistently adopted all these new standards for the relevant reporting periods. At the date of the authorization of these financial statements the IASB and IFRIC have issued the following new and revised Standards and Interpretations.

 

  (i) IFRS Standards Adopted

IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (Amended)

The presentation in the statement of shareholders’ equity or in the notes to the financial statements of other comprehensive income has been amended to differentiate elements of other comprehensive income that may subsequently be measured through profit and loss to be differentiated from those items that will not.

IAS 12, Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets (Amended)

An amendment was made to IAS 12 that provides a practical solution to determine the expected manner of recovery of investment properties as it relates to the accounting for deferred income taxes.

 

  (ii) IFRS Standards Not Yet Adopted

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2013

IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures

The amendments to disclosure requirements in IFRS 7 emphasize the interaction between quantitative and qualitative disclosures and the nature and extent of risks and amends credit risk disclosures. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 10, Consolidated financial statements

IFRS 10 requires an entity to consolidate an investee when it 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 existing 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. IFRS 10 replaces SIC-12 Consolidation-Special Purpose Entities and parts of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the final standard is expected to have on its consolidated financial statements.

  (ii) IFRS Standards Not Yet Adopted (continued)

 

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2013 (continued)

 

IAS 19, Employee Benefits

In June 2011, the IASB issued an amended IAS 19. The Standard requires recognition of changes in the net defined benefit liability (asset) including immediate recognition of defined benefit cost, disaggregation of defined benefit cost into components, recognition of remeasurements in other comprehensive income, plan amendments, curtailments and settlements. In addition there are modifications in accounting for termination benefits, including distinguishing benefits provided in exchange for service and benefits provided in exchange for the termination of employment and affect the recognition and measurement of termination benefits. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

IAS 28, Investments in Associates

The standard was amended to include joint ventures in its scope and to address the changes in IFRS 10 to IFRS 12. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the application of IAS 28 to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, which supersedes IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC 13, Jointly Controlled Entities – Non-Monetary Contributions by Venturers. The standard requires the Company to classify its interest in a joint arrangement as a joint venture or joint operation. This standard will eliminate the use of proportionate consolidation when accounting for joint ventures, as they will be accounted for using the equity method, whereas joint operations will be accounted for by recognizing the venturer’s share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management anticipates that this standard will be adopted in the Company’s financial statements for the period beginning July 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact IFRS 11 is expected to have on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 12, Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

The IASB has issued IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interest in Other Entities, which includes disclosure requirements about subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates, as well as unconsolidated structured entities and replaces existing disclosure requirements. This standard will become effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2013. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this new standard as of its effective date. The Company is currently analyzing the possible impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2013 (continued)

 

IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement

IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement: effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with early adoption permitted, sets out in a single IFRS a framework for measuring fair value and new required disclosures about fair value measurements. Management anticipates that this standard will be adopted in the Company’s financial statements for the period beginning July 1, 2013, and has not yet considered the potential impact of the adoption of IFRS 13.

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2014

IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation – Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities

In December 2011, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 32. The amendment clarifies the meaning of “currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off”. The amendments also clarify the application of the IAS 32 offsetting criteria to settlement systems (such as central clearing house systems) which apply gross settlement mechanisms that are not simultaneous. The Company does not anticipate a significant impact to its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting standards anticipated to be effective July 1, 2015

IFRS 9, Financial instruments

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement will replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. On December 16, 2011, the IASB amended the effective date of IFRS 9 to annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, with early adoption permitted.

IFRS 9 introduces new requirements for the impairment of financial assets measured at amortized cost and classification and measurement of financial instruments. Management anticipates that this standard will be adopted in the Company’s financial statements for the period beginning July 1, 2015, and has not yet considered the potential impact of the adoption of IFRS 9.

2. Basis of Preparation (continued)

 

  (c) Basis of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company include the following subsidiaries and interests in joint ventures:

 

Name of Subsidiary

   Place of
Incorporation
   Ownership
Interest
    Basis of
Presentation

Fission Energy Peru S.A.C

   Peru      100   Consolidated

Minera Peruran S.A.C

   Peru      100   Consolidated

Pitchstone Exploration Limited

   Canada      100   Consolidated

Pitchstone Exploration Namibia (Pty.) Ltd.

   Africa      73.62   Proportionately consolidated

Waterbury Lake Uranium Corporation

   Canada      60.00   Proportionately consolidated

Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership

   Canada      59.99 %    Proportionately consolidated

The Company consolidates the wholly owned subsidiaries on the basis that it controls these subsidiaries through its ability to govern their financial and operating policies. The Company also proportionally consolidates its interest in joint ventures, Pitchstone Exploration Namibia (Pty) Ltd. (“PENL”), Waterbury Lake Uranium Corporation (“WLUC”) and Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership (“WLULP”), based on its ownership interests.

Intercompany transactions and resulting balances with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, PENL, WLUC and WLULP have been eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interests.

 

3. Key Estimates and Assumptions

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below. The Company based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising beyond the control of the Company. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.

 

  (a) Exploration and evaluation expenditure

The Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure results in certain items of expenditure being capitalized for an area of interest where it is considered likely to be recovered by future exploitation or sale where the activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of existence of reserves. This policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions as to future events and circumstance, in particular whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after having capitalized the expenditure under the policy, a judgment is made that the recovery of the expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalized amount will be written off in the statement of comprehensive loss in the period when the new information becomes available.

3. Key Estimates and Assumptions (continued)

 

  (b) Share-based compensation

The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees and non-employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based compensation transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires the determination of the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating share-based compensation transactions are disclosed in Note 9.

 

4. Short-term Investments

Short–term investments are recorded at fair value and are comprised of the following:

 

     Fair Market Value  
     Number

     December 31
2012
     June 30

6. Acquisition of Pitchstone Exploration Ltd.

On July 5, 2012, the Company completed a Plan of Arrangement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Pitchstone Exploration Ltd. (“Pitchstone”). Based on 45,208,185 Pitchstone shares outstanding, the Company issued 9,697,159 (ratio of 0.2145) of their common shares to complete the transaction, representing approximately 8.4% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares. The 3,825,000 Pitchstone options entitle holders to purchase 820,465 common shares of the Company with exercise prices ranging from $0.70 to $2.00 and expiring between October 5, 2012 and November 1, 2016. The 2,878,490 Pitchstone warrants entitle holders to purchase 617,441 common shares of the Company with exercise prices ranging from $0.65 to $1.17 and expired January 27, 2013 without exercise. The purchase price allocation presented in these statements is preliminary, subject to change and is expected to be finalized by the year ended June 30, 2013.

Pitchstone is a uranium exploration company operating in Canada and Namibia. Pitchstone owns a 73.62% interest in its subsidiary, Pitchstone Exploration Namibia (Pty.) Ltd. The property portfolio features 13 projects in the eastern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, five of which are 100% owned. In addition, there are two joint venture projects in Namibia and several joint venture projects in the Hornby Bay Basin, Nunavut.

As Pitchstone is in the early stage of exploration and does not yet have any processes or outputs, the acquisition was accounted for as a purchase of assets. The difference between the purchase consideration and the adjusted book values of Pitchstone’s assets and liabilities had been assigned to “exploration and evaluation assets”. The purchase price of the acquisition and the assets acquired are described below:

The fair value of the stock options and warrants of Pitchstone was estimated as of July 5, 2012 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

     Stock Options     Warrants  

Risk Free Interest Rate

     1.02     1.02

Expected Life—Years

     0.96        0.56   

Annualised Volatility

     70     58

Dividend Rate

     0     0

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the estimate of the share price volatility. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the Company’s stock options and warrants.

7. Exploration and Evaluation Assets (continued)

 

Title to exploration and evaluation interests involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of title and/or ownership of claims and exploration and evaluation interests. The Company has investigated title to all of its exploration and evaluation interests, and to the best of its knowledge, title to all of its properties are in good standing.

 

  (a) Duddridge Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in north-central Saskatchewan in fiscal 2008.

 

  (b) Waterbury Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in Saskatchewan in fiscal 2008. On January 30, 2008, it completed an earn-in agreement on the property with the Korea Waterbury Uranium Limited Partnership (“KWULP”). Under the agreement, the Company granted KWULP the exclusive rights to earn up to a 50% interest in the Waterbury Lake property by funding $14,000,000 of expenditures on or before January 30, 2011. Additionally, the Company retained an overriding royalty interest in the property of 2% of net smelter returns. On April 29, 2010, KWULP had fully funded its $14,000,000 of expenditures and consequently earned a 50% interest in the property.

The earn-in agreement required that on completion of the earn-in period, the joint venture participants agree to form a joint control Limited Partnership to hold the property and on August 16, 2010 the Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership (“WLULP”) agreement was signed, and now supersedes the original earn-in agreement. WLULP was officially formed December 30, 2010.

The Company had 12 months from the completion of the earn-in agreement during which time it could acquire an additional 10% interest in WLULP for $6,000,000. On April 12, 2011, the Company exercised its back-in option by paying KWULP $6,000,000 and now holds a 60% interest in WLULP. The WLULP agreement also requires that the Company and its partners spend a total of $30,000,000 for exploration and evaluation costs over a three year period in proportion to their interest in WLULP. The partners have fully funded the $30,000,000 contract commitment of which $24,577,432 in expenditures have been incurred by WLULP as of December 31, 2012. The Company was appointed operator for WLULP and is entitled to a management fee equal to 10% of expenditures for operator services.

 

  (c) Patterson Lake Properties, Canada

The Patterson Lake Properties, located in Saskatchewan, comprise both Patterson Lake and Patterson Lake South properties.

 

  (i) Patterson Lake

The Company acquired a 100% interest in various claims in fiscal 2008. In January 2012 the Company staked one additional claim.

  (c) Patterson Lake Properties, Canada (continued)

 

 

  (ii) Patterson Lake South

The Company acquired a 100% interest in various claims in fiscal 2008 and, on January 21, 2008, entered into an exploration agreement with Alpha Minerals Inc. (“Alpha” formerly ESO Uranium Corporation) to include jointly staked claims on the southern extension of Fission’s 100% owned Patterson Lake claims and Alpha’s Hook Lake Property. The joint venture participants share costs in proportion to their interest in the joint venture. This is presently a 50%—50% basis. In November 2011 one additional claim was staked and in December 2011 six claims were staked. In fiscal 2012 two claims were allowed to lapse and as a result the Company recorded a $1,976 write-down of acquisition costs and $12,162 write-down of exploration costs at June 30, 2012.

 

  (d) Davy Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in Saskatchewan in fiscal 2008.

 

  (e) Dieter Lake Property, Canada

The Company acquired a 100% interest in certain claims located in Quebec during fiscal 2008. In the event a uranium resource of more than 60 million pounds is confirmed at the property, the Company is required to issue 66,667 shares to the vendor. In August 2011, the Company staked one-hundred-seventy-eight claims.

 

  (f) Other Fission Canadian Properties

 

  (i) North Shore Property

The Company acquired a 100% interest in a property located in Alberta in fiscal 2008. The property is subject to a 0.75% net smelter returns royalty on certain mineral production and 4% gross overriding royalty on any diamond production from the property.

The Government of Alberta drafted the Lower Athabasca Regional Plan (“LARP”) to conserve land, which has resulted in some of metallic and industrial mineral claims to be under temporary restricted status, which includes some claims held by Fission. On August 22, 2012 the Government of Alberta approved the LARP, and the Company will not be permitted to continue exploration on claims within the zoned land. Accordingly, in fiscal 2012, the Company recorded a write-down of $3,594,513 to the property at June 30, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating its options including approaching the Government of Alberta for compensation of all expenditures incurred plus loss of future opportunities.

 

  (ii) Fort McLeod Property

The Company staked certain claims in Saskatchewan in fiscal 2010, however all claims lapsed in fiscal 2012 and the Company abandoned the property and recorded a write-down of $251 at June 30, 2012.

9. Share capital and other capital reserves

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of common shares, without par value. All issued shares are fully paid.

 

  (a) Private placements

November 17, 2011

The Company completed a private placement of 11,800,000 flow-through common shares at $0.85 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $10,030,000. The Company paid agents’ commissions of $637,915 plus $77,771 of expenses and issued 623,701 non-transferable broker warrants with an attributed value of $364,064 based on the Black-Scholes pricing model which was included in other capital reserves. Each broker warrant is exercisable into one common share of the Company for a period of 2 years at a price of $0.85 per share with an expiry date of November 17, 2013. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model include a volatility of 107%, risk free interest rate of 0.90%, expected life of 2 years, and a dividend rate of 0%. All warrants vested immediately on the date of grant. Since the Company’s share price increased between the date the consideration to be received for the flow-through shares was set and the closing date, which was used for the transaction allocation under the residual method, no value was ascribed to the flow-through liability.

13. Contingency

In January 2008, the Company received an invoice in the amount of $182,616 from a Canadian drilling company for services allegedly performed during 2007. The plaintiff has commenced legal proceedings and the Company is defending itself against the action. No amount has been accrued in these financial statements in respect of the claim as the outcome is not determinable at this time. Any costs ultimately assessed against the Company in respect of this claim will be recorded in the period in which the actual determination of the liability, if any, is made.

 

14. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to December 31, 2012 the Company:

 

  (a) Completed a non-brokered private placement financing of 4,000,000 common share units at a price of $0.50 per unit for gross proceeds of $2,000,000. Each common share unit consists of one common share plus one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant is exercisable at $0.65 for a period of 2 years. The company paid $60,300 in finder’s fees in connection with this private placement;

 

  (b) Entered into a binding letter agreement with Denison Mines Corp. (“Denison”) dated January 16, 2013, pursuant to which Denison and Fission will seek shareholder approval for Denison’s acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Fission after Fission has transferred certain of its assets to a new company (“Spinco”). The transaction is expected to be structured as a plan of arrangement under which the shareholders of Fission will receive 0.355 of a common share of Denison and one common share of Spinco for each Fission common share held. The assets being transferred to Spinco will include the Patterson Lake and Patterson Lake South (“PLS”) properties, North Shore property, Clearwater West property, Peru properties and the ending working capital of Fission. The transaction will be subject to regulatory and Fission shareholder approvals. In certain circumstances, a $3.5 million break fee may be payable;

 

  (c) 61,435 stock options expired and 10,000 stock options were forfeited;

 

  (d) Issued 4,000,000 share purchase warrants in connection with the non-brokered private placement;

 

  (e) 617,441 warrants granted on July 5, 2012 expired without exercise. The Company applied to the TSX Venture Exchange to extend the expiry date of 4,945,733 warrants issued as part of the Company’s unit private placement completed on February 24, 2011 from February 24, 2013 to April 1, 2013. The remaining 516,462 warrants issued as part of the February 24, 2011 private placement expired without exercise;

 

  (f) Obtained a waiver from Denison of the milestone requirement to spend $500,000 on the Johnston Lake property by February 28, 2013 as part of the Company’s option to earn in an additional 29% interest. This waiver does not affect the total expenditure requirement of $1,000,000 by February 28, 2014.

DENISON MINES CORP.

Notes to the Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements

(Unaudited, expressed U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been compiled for the purposes of inclusion in the information circular of Fission Energy Corp (“Fission”) dated March 22, 2013. These pro forma financial statements have been prepared by the management of Denison Mines Corp (“Denison”) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and give effect to a proposed plan of arrangement under which all of the issued and outstanding shares of Fission are acquired by Denison as described in Note 2 (the “Arrangement”). These pro forma financial statements include:

 

  a) a pro forma combined balance sheet as at December 31, 2012 prepared from information derived from Denison’s audited consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012 and Fission’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2012, converted to U.S dollars at par, as if the Arrangement was completed on December 31, 2012 and giving effect to the assumptions as described in Note 3; and

 

  b) a pro forma combined statement of operations for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012 prepared from information derived from Denison’s audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2012 and Fission’s unaudited statement of operations for the year ended September 30, 2012 prepared as described in Note 5.

These pro forma financial statements are provided for illustrative purposes only, and do not purport to represent the financial position that would have resulted had the Arrangement actually occurred on December 31, 2012 or the results of operations that would have resulted had the Arrangement actually occurred on January 1, 2012. Further, these pro forma financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the future financial position or results of operations of Denison as a result of the Arrangement and should be read in conjunction with the following interim and year-end consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS:

 

  a) Denison’s audited consolidated financial statements for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 incorporated by reference in Fission’s circular dated March 22, 2013; and

 

  b) Fission’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2012 incorporated by reference into Fission’s circular dated March 22, 2013.

 

2. PLAN OF ARRANGEMENT

Pursuant to an arrangement agreement dated March 7, 2013, Denison and Fission propose to carry out a plan of arrangement, subject to approval by the security holders of Fission, applicable regulatory authorities and the Supreme Court of British Columbia. Conditional upon, among other things, certain assets of Fission being spun out to a new company (“Spin Co”), to be held pro rata by current Fission shareholders, Denison proposes to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Fission in exchange for Denison shares at a ratio of 0.355 shares of Denison for each share of Fission. Upon completion, the pre-combination shareholders of Denison and Fission will own approximately 88.8% and 11.2%, respectively, of the combined company excluding the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants.

For accounting purposes, Fission is not considered a business under IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” as it is currently not capable of generating outputs that can provide a return to Denison. As a result, transaction costs incurred by Denison relating to the combination will be capitalized as part of the purchase price and individual fair values will be assigned to the assets and liabilities being acquired – no goodwill will be recorded.

 

3. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS

The following pro forma adjustments and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets and liabilities acquired are preliminary and subject to change. Detailed plans for combining the operations of Denison and Fission, upon completion of the Arrangement, have yet to be finalized. Additional costs may be incurred due to these efforts and have not been reflected in these pro forma financial statements.

 

- 77 -


a) Purchase Price

The total preliminary purchase price of $72,410,000 for the Arrangement was determined as follows:

 

(in thousands)

      

Fission common shares outstanding at March 1, 2013, in thousands

     138,535   

Exchange ratio

     0.355   
  

 

 

 

Common shares of Denison issued to Fission shareholders, in thousands

     49,180   

Fair value per Denison common share, in CAD$

   $ 1.27   
  

 

 

 

Fair value of Denison common shares issued, in CAD$

   $ 62,458   

Canadian dollar to U.S dollar exchange rate

     1.0000   
  

 

 

 

Fair value of Denison common shares issued

   $ 62,458   

Fair value of outstanding Fission share purchase warrants assumed by Denison

     871   

Fair value of outstanding Fission stock options assumed by Denison

     2,735   

Cash costs associated with Arrangement:

  

Estimated amounts payable to Fission at closing by Denison

     4,721   

Estimated transaction costs related to Arrangement incurred by Denison (Note 2)

     1,625   
  

 

 

 

Preliminary purchase price

   $ 72,410   
  

 

 

 

The fair value per Denison common share of CAD$1.27 per share is the closing price of Denison shares on the TSX on March 6, 2013, the day immediately prior to the March 7, 2013 announcement of the Arrangement. Pursuant to the Arrangement, and subject to certain adjustments to the exercise price, the holders of Fission stock options and warrants will ultimately receive the right to acquire common shares of both Denison and Spin Co. The calculation of the fair values of the Fission warrants and stock options, which will ultimately be satisfied by the issuance of Denison common shares, was prepared using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and using the March 6, 2013 fair value amount of CAD$1.27 per Denison common share as an input in the model.

The final purchase price for the Arrangement will depend on the market price of Denison common shares on the closing date. Each CAD$0.01 increase in the market value of the Denison common shares increases the equity component of the purchase price by approximately $537,000.

 

b) Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The following table uses Fission’s September 30, 2012 published unaudited balance sheet converted to USD$ using a $CAD to USD$ foreign exchange rate of 1.0000 and allocates the preliminary purchase price based on Denison management’s estimate of the fair values after giving effect to the assets and liabilities being transferred to Spin Co as part of the Arrangement:

In arriving at the fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired, Denison’s management has made assumptions, estimates and assessments which are in part based on publicly available information at the time these pro forma financial statements were prepared and in part based on an interpretation of the provisions in the Arrangement agreement itself. The actual fair values of the assets and liabilities will be determined as of the closing date of the Arrangement and may differ materially from the amounts disclosed in the preliminary purchase price allocation set out in the table above.

 

c) Impact of asset and liability spin-out to Spin Co on statement of operations

In arriving at the statement of operations acquired, Denison’s management has made assumptions which are consistent with those used to determine the assets and liabilities acquired and which are consistent with its internal expectations of incremental costs to be incurred as a result of the combination. These amounts may not be indicative of actual amounts incurred once more detailed operating plans are put into place.

 

d) Accounting for exploration expenditures

Fission’s policy is to capitalize exploration expenditures while Denison’s policy is to expense them. An adjustment of $7,697,000 has been made to the combined pro forma statement of operations to expense the exploration expenditures capitalized by Fission on the mineral properties being acquired by Denison.

5. CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS OF FISSION

The unaudited consolidated statement of operations of Fission for the twelve months ended September 30, 2012 was prepared by adjusting the unaudited consolidated statement of operations of Fission for the three months ended September 30, 2012 by the following:

 

  a) adding the audited consolidated statement of operations of Fission for the twelve months ended June 30, 2012 and subtracting the unaudited consolidated statement of operations of Fission for the three months ending September 30, 2011; and

 

  b) translating the results to U.S dollars based on a Canadian / U.S dollar exchange rate of 1.0000.

6. PRO FORMA EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of pro forma earnings per share in the pro forma combined statement of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of Denison for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 plus the additional 49,180,000 common shares of Denison that would have been outstanding as if the Arrangement were completed on January 1, 2012.
