CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED

NOVEMBER 30, 2022 AND 2021

(Expressed in Thousands of Canadian Dollars unless otherwise stated)

 

 

 

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of GoldMining Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of GoldMining Inc. and its subsidiaries (together, the Company) as of November 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of November 30, 2022 and 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

 

Basis for Opinion

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

 

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

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

The head office and principal address of the Company is located at Suite 1830, 1030 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 2Y3, Canada.

 

2.

Basis of Preparation

 

2.1         Statement of compliance

 

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS") and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC"). They were authorised for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on February 28, 2023.

 

2.2         Basis of presentation

 

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The Company's consolidated financial statements and those of its controlled subsidiaries are presented in Canadian dollars ("$" or "dollars"), which is the Company's reporting currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand except where otherwise indicated.

 

2.3         Basis of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of GoldMining Inc. and the entities it controls. Control is achieved when the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where the Company's interest in a subsidiary is less than 100%, the Company recognizes non-controlling interests ("NCI").

 

All inter-company transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated through the consolidation process.

Non-controlling interest in any less than wholly owned subsidiary is classified as a separate component of equity. On initial recognition, non-controlling interest is measured at the fair value of the non-controlling party's contribution into the related subsidiary. Subsequent to the original transaction date, adjustments are made to the carrying amount of non-controlling interest for the non-controlling interest's share of changes to the subsidiary's equity.

 

Changes in the Company's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are recorded as equity transactions. The carrying amount of non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest's relative interest in the subsidiary, and the difference between the adjustment to the carrying amount of non-controlling interests and the Company's share of proceeds received and/or consideration paid is recognized directly in equity and attributed to shareholders of the Company.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Foreign currencies

 

The reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar ("$" or "dollars"). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries in Canada is the Canadian dollar and the functional currency of its subsidiaries in Brazil is the Brazilian Real ("R$") and its subsidiaries in the United States, Paraguay, Colombia and Peru is the United States dollar ("US$"). Foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars using period end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to income and expenses. All resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Investment in joint venture

 

A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

 

The Company's investment in its joint venture is accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in a joint venture is initially recognised at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Company's share of net assets of the joint venture since the acquisition date. Goodwill relating to the joint venture is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is not tested for impairment individually.

The consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) reflects the Company's share of the results of operations of the joint venture. Any change in other comprehensive income (loss) of those investees is presented as part of the Company's other comprehensive income (loss). In addition, when there has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the joint venture, the Company recognises its share of any changes, when applicable, in the consolidated statements of changes in equity. Unrealized gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Company and the joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the joint venture.

 

The financial statements of the joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Company.

 

Investments in associates

 

Investments over which the Company exercises significant influence but which it does not control or jointly control are associates. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method, except when classified as held for sale.

 

The equity method involves recording the initial investment at cost and subsequently adjusting the carrying value of the investment for the Company's proportionate share of the profit (loss), other comprehensive income (loss) and any other changes in the associate's or joint venture's net assets, such as further investment. Adjustments are made to align any inconsistencies between the Company's accounting policies and its associate's policies before applying the equity method. Adjustments are also made to account for depreciable assets based on their fair values at the acquisition date of the investment and for any impairment losses recognized by the associate. The equity method requires shares of losses to be recognized only until the carrying amount of an interest in an associate is nil. Any further losses are not recognized unless the entity has a legal or constructive obligation in respect of the liabilities associated with those losses.

 

At each statement of financial position date, the Company considers whether there is objective evidence of impairment of its investments in associates. If there is such evidence, the Company determines the amount of impairment to record, if any, in relation to the associate.

 

Where the Company loses control of an entity and it is reclassified as an associate the Company will remeasure the value of its retained investment at fair market value. A gain or loss will be recognized for the difference between the net amount of the change in interest and the fair value of a retained interest or any consideration received or paid. As of the date of loss of control the Company will cease to consolidate the results of the entity and report its results as an associate using the equity method of accounting.

 

Mineral exploration, evaluation and development expenditures

 

All direct costs related to the acquisition of exploration rights are capitalized on a property-by-property basis. The Company assesses the carrying costs for impairment when indicators of impairment exist. All other exploration and evaluation expenditures are charged to operations until such time as it has been determined that a property has economically recoverable reserves, in which case subsequent exploration and evaluation costs and the costs incurred to develop a property are capitalized into mineral properties. On the commencement of production, depletion of each mineral property will be provided on a units-of-production basis using estimated reserves as the depletion base.

 

Mineral property option agreements

 

When the Company acts as the farmee in a farm-in mineral property option agreement, the direct costs to enter into the agreement are capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets. All exploration and evaluation expenditures incurred by the Company in fulfilling the terms of the agreement are expensed as incurred, until such time as the option is exercised or lapses.

logosm.jpg

 

When the Company acts as the farmor in an agreement, it does not record any expenditures made by the farmee. It does not recognize any gain or loss on its exploration and evaluation farm out mineral property option agreements, and instead records any proceeds received as a credit to the amounts previously capitalized as mineral property acquisition costs. Any amounts received in excess of amounts capitalized are taken as a gain to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).

 

Income taxes

 

Income tax expense represents the sum of tax currently payable and deferred tax. Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted at the end of each reporting period. Deferred income tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences, at the end of each reporting period, between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes.

 

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:

 

 

where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

 

in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

 

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized except:

 

 

where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

 

in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

 

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting period and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the end of each reporting period. Deferred income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity is recognized in equity and not in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).

 

Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset if, and only if, a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to either settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or recovered.

Financial instruments

 

Financial instruments are recognized on the consolidated statements of financial position on the trade date, being the date on which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. At initial recognition, the Company classifies its financial instruments as one the following categories: at fair value through profit and loss ("FVTPL"), at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"), or at amortized cost according to the financial instruments' contractual cash flow characteristics and the business models under which they are held.

 

Financial assets are measured at amortized cost if they are held for the collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows solely represent payments of principal and interest. The Company's intent is to hold these financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms give rise to cash flows on specified dates that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Financial assets are measured at FVTOCI if they are held for the collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets, where the assets' cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest. The Company initially recognizes these financial assets at their fair value with subsequent changes to fair values recognized in OCI. When the financial asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to the statement of income (loss). Investments in equity securities are held for strategic purposes and not held for trading. The Company has made an irrevocable election at initial recognition to classify these investments as FVTOCI, with all subsequent changes in value being recognized in OCI. Cumulative gains and losses in equity securities are not subsequently reclassified to profit or loss.

 

Financial assets are measured at FVTPL if they do not qualify as financial assets at amortized cost or FVTOCI. The Company initially recognizes these financial assets at their fair value with subsequent changes to fair values recognized in the statement of loss. Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL.

 

The Company's financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investment, reclamation deposits, and long-term investments. The Company's financial liabilities include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to joint venture, due to related parties and the margin loan payable. All financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and classified as follows:

 

 

Cash and cash equivalents and reclamation deposits are classified as financial assets at amortized cost. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to joint venture, due to related parties, margin loan payable and withholdings taxes payable are classified as financial liabilities at amortized cost. Both financial assets at amortized cost and financial liabilities at amortized cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest method; and

 

 

Short-term and long-term investments in equity securities are classified as fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"). Such investments are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any gains or losses arising on re-measurement recognized as a component of other comprehensive income or loss. Realized gains or losses on investments in equity securities classified as FVTOCI remain in OCI.

 

Impairment of financial assets

 

The Company assesses at the end of each reporting period whether a financial asset is impaired.

 

At each reporting date, the Company assesses the expected credit loss associated with its financial assets carried at amortized cost and debt instruments measured at FVTOCI. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. Changes in allowances for expected credit losses are recognized as impairment gains or losses on the statement of loss.

Derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities

 

Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets expire or, the financial assets are transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets. On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized directly in equity is recognized in profit or loss.

 

For financial liabilities, they are derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The fair value of financial instruments that are traded in active markets at each reporting date are determined by reference to quoted market prices or dealer price quotations (bid price for long positions and ask price for short positions), without any deduction for transaction costs.

 

For financial instruments not traded in an active market, the fair value is determined using appropriate valuation techniques. Such techniques may include using recent arm's length market transactions; reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same; a discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation models.

 

Impairment of non-financial assets

 

Exploration and evaluation assets are subject to impairment tests whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Where the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell, the asset is written down accordingly. An impairment loss is charged to profit or loss.

 

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely independent cash flows (cash-general units). As a result, some assets may be tested individually for impairment and some may be tested at a cash-generating unit level.

 

Impairment reviews for exploration and evaluation stage mineral properties are carried out on a property by property basis, with each property representing a single cash generating unit. An impairment review is undertaken when indicators of impairment arise, but typically when one of the following circumstances apply:

 

 

The right to explore the area has expired or will expire in the near future with no expectation of renewal;

 

Substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the area is neither planned nor budgeted;

 

No commercially viable deposits have been discovered, and the decision had been made to discontinue exploration in the area; and

 

Sufficient work has been performed to indicate that the carrying amount of the expenditure carried as an asset will not be fully recovered.

 

Provisions

 

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Where the Company expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to any provision is presented in profit or loss net of any reimbursement. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognized as finance cost.

Rehabilitation provisions

 

The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal obligations, including those associated with the reclamation of exploration and evaluation assets and property and equipment, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the asset. Rehabilitation provisions are measured at the present value of the expected expenditures required to settle the obligation using a discount rate reflecting the time value of money and risks specific to the liability. Upon initial recognition of the liability, the present value of the estimated cost is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related assets. Over time, the discounted liability is increased based on the unwind of the discount rate. The periodic unwinding of the discount is recognized in profit or loss as a finance cost. Additional disturbances or changes in rehabilitation costs will be recognized as additions or charges to the corresponding assets and rehabilitation liability when they occur. Changes in the estimated timing of rehabilitation or changes to the estimated future costs are dealt with prospectively by recognising an adjustment to the rehabilitation liability and a corresponding adjustment to the asset to which it relates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on deposit with banks and highly liquid short-term interest-bearing investments with a term to maturity at the date of purchase of 90 days or less which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

 

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 influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control. 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 or obligations between related parties.

 

Net income (loss) per share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share includes no potential dilution and is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

 

Diluted income per share is computed in a manner similar to basic net income (loss) per share except that the weighted average number of common shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of share options and warrants, if dilutive.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Property and equipment are depreciated over an estimated useful life as follows:

 

Buildings and Camp Structures 5 to 20 years 
Exploration equipment 5 years 
Vehicles 5 years 
Furniture and fixtures 5 years 
Computer equipment 3 years 
Computer software 1 years

When an item of property and equipment has different useful lives, the components are accounted for as separate items of property and equipment. Expenditures incurred to replace a component of an item of property and equipment that is accounted for separately, including major inspection and overhaul expenditures are capitalized if the recognition criteria are satisfied. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as incurred.

 

Share-based payments

 

Restricted share rights

 

The Company grants restricted share rights (the "RSRs") to certain directors, officers, employees and consultants to receive shares of the Company. The Company classifies RSRs as equity instruments since the Company has the ability and intent to settle the awards in common shares.

 

The fair value of RSRs granted is recognized as an expense over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant date and recognized over the period during which the RSRs vest.

 

The vesting of RSRs and issuance of common shares in the Company is recorded as issued capital and the related share-based compensation reserve is transferred to issued capital.

 

Share options

 

The Company grants share options to certain directors, officers, employees, and consultants of the Company. Each tranche in an award is considered a separate award with its own vesting period and grant date fair value. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the grant date fair value of share-based awards.

 

The fair value of share options granted to employees is recognized as an expense over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in equity. An individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes, provides services that could be provided by a direct employee, or has authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company, including non-executive directors. For employees, the fair value is measured at grant date and recognized over the period during which the options vest.

 

For consultants, the fair value of the award is recorded in profit or loss over the term of the service provided, and the fair value of the unvested amounts are revalued at each reporting period over the service period.

 

Consideration received on the exercise of share options is recorded as issued capital and the related share-based compensation reserve is transferred to issued capital.

 

Significant accounting judgments and estimates

 

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make accounting policy judgments, make estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgments and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Management uses historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the given circumstances as the basis for its judgments and estimates. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements is as follows:

 

Long-term investment in Gold Royalty Corp.

 

In March 2021, the Company's former subsidiary, Gold Royalty Corp. ("GRC") completed its initial public offering (the "IPO"). Inclusive of the partial exercise of an overallotment option, GRC issued 18,000,000 units (the "Units") at a price of US$5.00 per Unit and separately issued 721,347 common shares and 1,350,000 warrants for aggregate gross proceeds of $117.3 million (US$94.5 million). Each Unit consisted of one common share and one half of one common share purchase warrant. Following the completion of the IPO, the Company's ownership in GRC decreased from 87.6% to 48.1%.

 

GRC's board of directors appoints officers and management of GRC and approves its operating, investing and financing decisions. Prior to the completion of the IPO, significant decisions related to GRC's activities required approval by both GRC and the Company's boards of directors.  Subsequent to the completion of the IPO, the Company continued to have two directors on GRC's board of directors, however, a majority of GRC directors were independent of the Company.  Significant operational, investing and financing decisions by GRC no longer require approval of the Company.  With reduced board representation and ownership percentage, and a substantially separate management team in place for GRC, the Company determined that it had significant influence, rather than control, over GRC.  The Company reported the results of GRC as an associate using the equity method effective March 11, 2021 (Note 4).

 

On August 23, 2021 GRC completed the acquisition of Ely Gold Royalties Inc. ("Ely Gold") by issuing 30,902,176 GRC common shares and paying $84.0 million in cash. Following GRC's acquisition of Ely Gold, the Company's ownership in GRC decreased from 48.1% to 27.6%. Post ownership dilution, two of the Company's directors remained members of GRC's board of seven directors. The Company continued to have the ability to exercise significant influence over GRC following the acquisition of Ely Gold.

 

On November 5, 2021, GRC completed the acquisition of Abitibi Royalties Inc. ("Abitibi") and Golden Valley Mines and Royalties Ltd. ("Golden Valley") by issuing 31,625,931 GRC common shares and 29,478,269 GRC common shares, respectively to the shareholders of Abitibi and Golden Valley. Following GRC's acquisition of Abitibi and Golden Valley, the Company's ownership in GRC further decreased from 27.6% to 14.9% and GRC added an additional board member who is unrelated to the Company. Post closing, two of the Company's directors remained members of GRC's board of eight directors; however, one of the two had announced a decision not to seek reappointment further diluting the Company's influence over GRC's board. The Company does not have an investor agreement and has no specific right to appoint directors of GRC other than in its capacity as a shareholder. Additionally, following the Abitibi and Golden Valley acquisition GRC had two other significant (greater than 5%) shareholders, further reducing the Company's influence.

 

As the Company's ownership of GRC fell below 20% following the acquisition of Abitibi and Golden Valley, there was a presumption that the Company did not have significant influence. The Company considered all factors presented, including representation on the investee's board of directors, participation in policy making processes, material transactions between the entity and the investee, interchange of managerial personnel and provision of essential technical information. Based on the analysis performed, the Company concluded it no longer had significant influence over GRC and accounted for its ownership in the common shares of GRC as an investment in GRC initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at FVTOCI effective November 5, 2021 (Note 4).

 

Existence of impairment indicators for exploration and evaluation assets

 

In accordance with the Company's accounting policy, all direct costs related to the acquisition of exploration rights are capitalized on a property-by-property basis. There is no certainty that costs incurred to acquire exploration rights will result in discoveries of commercial quantities of minerals. The Company applies judgment to determine whether indicators of impairment exist for these capitalized costs.

 

Management uses several criteria in making this assessment, including the period for which the Company has the right to explore, expected renewals of exploration rights, whether substantive expenditures on further exploration and evaluation of mineral properties are budgeted, and evaluation of the results of exploration and evaluation activities up to the reporting date. As at November 30, 2022 the Company has concluded no impairment indicators exist for any of its exploration and evaluation assets.

Long-term investments

 

As at November 30, 2022, the Company's long-term investments consist of GRC and NevGold Corp. ("NevGold") and are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"). Long-term investments are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices, with unrealized gains or losses excluded from earnings and reported as other comprehensive income or loss. During the year ended November 30, 2022, the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $60,940 (unrealized gain of $9,257 for 2021) and a deferred tax recovery of $8,227 (deferred tax expense of $1,250 for 2021) in other comprehensive loss relating to its long-term investments. Refer to table below, "The changes in long-term investments, when accounted for at FVTOCI".

 

Investment in Gold Royalty Corp.

 

On March 11, 2021, following the Company's loss of control over GRC, the Company remeasured the value of its retained investment at fair value and recognized a gain of $118,201. The Company initially measured its 20 million share interest in GRC at $5.92 (US$4.72) per share, based on the closing price of GRC common shares on March 11, 2021 (the "IPO Closing Date").

During the year ended November 30, 2021, the Company recorded a gain on settlement of litigation in the amount of $760, resulting from the settlement of liabilities related to the Cachoeira Project.

 

Additionally, the existing 1.33% net profits interest royalty held by the royalty holder was replaced by a 0.5% net smelter return royalty pursuant to a new royalty agreement between the parties. Such royalty does not include annual minimum royalty payments and will be subject to a right of BRI Mineração Ltda. to repurchase up to one-half of the royalty for US$250,000 payable in Brazilian Real equivalent for a period of seven years after the date of the royalty agreement.

 

Yarumalito

 

On March 11, 2022, the Company acquired an existing 1% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty on the Company's Yarumalito Project in Colombia from Newrange Gold Corp. ("Newrange"). Pursuant to an agreement, the Company paid Newrange $100 in cash and delivered 10,000 common shares of the Company. The total purchase price including transaction costs was $134 and was capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets during the year ended November 30, 2022

 

Almaden

 

On June 13, 2022, the Company and its subsidiary entered into an option agreement (the "Option Agreement") with NevGold and a subsidiary of NevGold, pursuant to which, among other things, it agreed to grant an option to acquire 100% of the Company's Almaden Project to NevGold's subsidiary. Pursuant to the terms thereof, on July 4, 2022 (the "Option Agreement Closing Date"), the Company closed the grant of the option to NevGold's subsidiary. As consideration for the option grant, the Company received 4,444,444 common shares of NevGold ("NevGold Shares") with a fair value of $2,489, based on the closing NevGold Share price of $0.56 as traded on the Option Agreement Closing Date.

Margin Loan Payable

 

On October 28, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement for a $24.7 million (US$20 million) loan facility (the "Facility"), which Facility was available for general corporate purposes, acquisitions and to continue to advance the Company's projects. The Facility: (i) was subject to an interest rate of 3-month USD LIBOR plus 5.65% per annum, with the unutilized portion of the Facility subject to a standby fee of 3.00% per annum; (ii) matured on the earlier of October 28, 2022 or an earlier repayment date in accordance with its terms, and could be extended for an additional one-year period subject to lender approval; (iii) was secured by 20,000,000 shares of GRC owned by the Company; and (iv) was subject to customary loan-to-value and minimum share price requirements and conditions to drawdowns. The Company paid a one-time facility fee equal to 1.50% on entering into the Facility. The Facility provided for a minimum draw down of $12.4 million (US$10 million) and certain customary early repayment fees in the event that any portion of such minimum amount was repaid prior to maturity.

 

On July 27, 2022, in order to provide the Company greater capital flexibility, the Company and the lender entered into an amendment of the Facility, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company repaid $3.7 million (US$2.9 million) without incurring early pre-payment fees and the Facility's margin and pricing requirements were amended to provide greater flexibility to the Company in light of existing market conditions. As a part of the amendment of the Facility, an additional 700,000 GRC shares were pledged as security for the Company's margin loan, for a total of 20,700,000 GRC shares being pledged as security.

 

On October 27, 2022, the Company and the lender agreed to extend the maturity date of the Facility for an additional year (the "Amended loan Facility"), reducing the overall size of the margin loan to $13.4 million (US$10 million). The Amended loan Facility: (i) is subject to an interest rate of 3-month USD Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Finance Rate ("SOFR") plus 5.65% per annum, with the unutilized portion of the Amended loan Facility subject to a standby fee of 3.00% per annum; (ii) matures on the earlier of October 27, 2023 or an earlier repayment date in accordance with its terms; (iii) is secured by 20,700,000 shares of GRC owned by the Company; and (iv) is subject to customary loan-to-value and minimum share price requirements and conditions to drawdowns. The Company paid a one-time facility fee equal to 1.50% on entering into the Amended loan Facility. The Amended loan Facility provided for a minimum outstanding advance of $9.4 million (US$7 million) and certain customary early repayment fees in the event that any portion of such minimum amount is repaid prior to maturity. Further drawdowns and additional availability under the Amended loan Facility are subject to satisfying certain conditions, which would not be met as of November 30, 2022. As at November 30, 2022, outstanding advances are $9.5 million (US$7.1 million).

 

During the year ended November 30, 2022, the Company recorded a gain on modification of margin loan of $834 as a result of executing the Amended loan Facility.

10.4         Restricted Share Rights

 

The Company's restricted share plan (the "RSP") was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") on November 27, 2018. Pursuant to the terms of the RSP, the Board may designate directors, senior officers, employees and consultants of the Company eligible to receive restricted share rights ("RSR(s)") to acquire such number of GoldMining Shares as the Board may determine, in accordance with the restricted periods schedule during the recipient's continual service with the Company. There are no cash settlement alternatives. The RSP was approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance with its term at the Company's annual general meeting held on May 25, 2019.

 

The RSRs vest in accordance with the vesting schedule during the recipient's continual service with the Company. The Company classifies RSRs as equity instruments since the Company has the ability and intent to settle the awards in common shares. The compensation expense for standard RSRs is calculated based on the fair value of each RSR as determined by the closing value of the Company's common shares at the date of the grant. The Company recognizes compensation expense over the vesting period of the RSR.  The Company expects to settle RSRs, upon vesting, through the issuance of new common shares from treasury.

 

The following outlines the movements of the Company's RSRs:

US Gold Equity Incentive Plan

 

On September 23, 2022, (the "Effective Date"), the Company's subsidiary, U.S. GoldMining Inc. ("US Gold"), domiciled in Nevada, adopted an equity incentive plan (the "Legacy Incentive Plan"). Unless sooner terminated by the US Gold's board of directors, the Legacy Incentive Plan will terminate and expire on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. No award may be made under the Legacy Incentive Plan after its expiration date, but awards made prior thereto may extend beyond that date. The purpose of the Legacy Incentive Plan is to attract and retain the services of key employees, key contractors, and outside directors of US Gold and its subsidiaries. The Legacy Incentive Plan only provides for the grant of restricted stock awards. The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the grant of the restricted stock awards shall be 1,000,000 shares of common stock in US Gold.

 

10.7

US Gold Restricted Shares

 

On September 23, 2022, US Gold granted awards of an aggregate of 635,000 shares of performance based restricted shares (the "Restricted Shares") of common stock under the Legacy Incentive Plan to certain of US Gold's and GoldMining's executive officers, directors and consultants.

 

The grant of 635,000 Restricted Shares, included 585,000 Restricted Shares which were issued in exchange for shares previously issued by U.S. GoldMining Inc. ("US Gold Canada") to certain of US Gold Canada's and GoldMining's executive officers, directors and consultants on March 8, 2022. US Gold Canada had initially issued restricted shares with the goal of developing the Whistler Project as a separate standalone public company.

 

The Restricted Shares are subject to restrictions that, among other things, prohibit the transfer thereof until certain performance conditions are met. In addition, if such conditions are not met within applicable periods, the restricted shares will be deemed forfeited and surrendered by the holder thereof to US Gold without the requirement of any further consideration. Assuming completion of US Gold's initial public offering ("IPO") (Note 18), these conditions are:

 

 

(a)

with respect to 15% of the performance based restricted shares of common stock, if US Gold has not completed equity financing(s) in an aggregate amount of at least US$15,000,000 prior to or concurrently with the earlier of: (i) the date that is two years after the date of grant of such award; and (ii) the occurrence of a liquidation event, as such term is defined in the Legacy Incentive Plan, or any merger with or sale of US Gold's outstanding shares or all or substantially all of US Gold's assets to a third-party, referred to as an "Exit Transaction", provided that, for greater certainty, the following shall not be considered an Exit Transaction: (A) any amalgamation, merger or consolidation of US Gold's business with or into a related entity; (B) a transaction undertaken solely for the purpose of changing US Gold's place of domicile or jurisdiction of incorporation; (C) an equity financing; and (D) completion of an initial public offering, spin-off from GoldMining or other going public transaction, referred to as an "IPO Event";

12.

Capital Risk Management

 

The Company's objectives are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in order to support the Company's normal operating requirements, continue the development and exploration of its mineral properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable risk.

 

The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, issue new debt, or acquire or dispose of assets, including long-term investments.

 

At November 30, 2022, the Company's capital structure consists of the equity of the Company (Note 10) and its margin loan (Note 8). The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay dividends.

 

 

13.

Financial Instruments

 

The Company's financial assets include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investment, reclamation deposits and long-term investments. The Company's financial liabilities include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to joint venture, due to related parties, and the margin loan payable. The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing fair value of financial instruments:

 

 

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

 

Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs have a significant effect on the recorded fair value which are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

 

The Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to joint venture, due to related parties and withholdings taxes payable, approximate fair value due to their short terms to settlement. The Company's margin loan payable is current, is measured at amortized cost and classified as level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the margin loan approximates its fair value as its interest rate is comparable to current market rates.

 

The Company's short-term and long-term investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of short-term and long-term investments is based on the quoted market price of the short-term and long-term investments.

 

13.1

Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

 

The financial risk arising from the Company's operations are currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and equity price risk. These risks arise from the normal course of operations and all transactions undertaken are to support the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The risks associated with the Company's financial instruments and the policies on how the Company mitigates these risks are set out below. Management manages and monitors these exposures to ensure appropriate measures are implemented in a timely and effective manner.

 

13.2

Currency Risk

 

The Company's operating expenses and acquisition costs are denominated in United States dollars, the Brazilian Real, the Colombian Peso and Canadian dollars. The exposure to exchange rate fluctuations arises mainly on foreign currencies against the Company and its subsidiaries functional currencies. The Company has not entered into any derivative instruments to manage foreign exchange fluctuations; however, management monitors foreign exchange exposure.

Total

The Canadian dollar equivalent of the Company's foreign currency denominated monetary liabilities are solely in United States Dollars and total $9,792.

 

The impact of a Canadian dollar change against the United States Dollar on the investment in GRC by 10% at November 30, 2022 would have an impact, net of tax, of approximately $6,536 on other comprehensive loss for the year ended November 30, 2022. The impact of a Canadian dollar change against the United States Dollar on the Company's other financial instruments based on balances at November 30, 2022 would have an impact of $486 on net loss for the year ended November 30, 2022.

 

13.3

Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk arises from the impact of interest rates on its cash, guaranteed investment certificates, lease liabilities and margin loan payable, which bear interest at fixed or variable rates. The interest rate risks on the Company's cash and cash equivalents and lease liabilities are minimal. The Company's margin loan bears a floating interest rate and an increase (decrease) of 10 basis points in the 3-month USD Adjusted Term SOFR would not have a significant impact on net loss for the year ended November 30, 2022. The Company has not entered into any derivative instruments to manage interest rate fluctuations.

 

13.4

Credit Risk

 

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk for the Company is primarily associated with the Company's bank balances.

 

The Company mitigates credit risk associated with its bank balance by only holding cash and cash equivalents with large, reputable financial institutions.

 

13.5

Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to settle or manage its obligations associated with financial liabilities.  To manage liquidity risk the Company closely monitors its liquidity position and ensures it has adequate sources of funding to finance its projects and operations.  As at November 30, 2022, the Company has a working capital deficit (current assets less current liabilities) of $1,791.  The Company's other receivables, prepaid expenses, deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to joint venture, due to related parties, lease liabilities, margin loan and withholdings taxes payable are expected to be realized or settled within a one-year period.

The Company has current cash and cash equivalent balances, access to its ATM Program (Note 18), whereby the Company has the ability to issue shares for cash, and ownership of liquid assets at its disposal. The Company also owns 21.18 million shares of NYSE listed Gold Royalty Corp. (closing share price as of November 30, 2022 of US$2.66 reflects a value of US$56.3 million), 5.93 million shares of NevGold (value of $2.3 million) and received dividends of $802 from GRC during the year ended November 30, 2022. GoldMining believes that its cash on hand, access to its ATM Program and ability to enter into future borrowings collateralized by the GRC and NevGold shares after the maturity of the existing Amended loan Facility will enable the Company to meet its working capital requirements for the next twelve months commencing from the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.  

 

13.6

Equity Price Risk

 

The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of holding its long-term investments. The Company does not actively trade its long-term investments. The equity prices of its long-term investments are impacted by various underlying factors including commodity prices. Based on the Company's long-term investments held as at November 30, 2022, a 10% change in the equity prices of its long-term investments would have an impact, net of tax, of approximately $6,733 on other comprehensive loss for the year ended November 30, 2022.
