1. The Company and Significant Accounting Policies

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. (“IDR”, “Idaho Strategic” or the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair statement of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025. Management estimates that the effective tax rate expected for the full year ended December 31, 2025 will be 0% due to the Company’s cumulative loss position, historical net operating losses (“NOLs”), and other available evidence related to the Company’s ability to generate taxable income. Accordingly, there is no income tax provision or benefit for the six month period ended June 30, 2025.

For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, in the Company’s Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2025.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary, the New Jersey Mill Joint Venture (“NJMJV”). Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. The portion of entities owned by other investors is presented as non-controlling interests on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

Gold Revenue Recognition and Receivables-Sales of gold sold directly to customers are recorded as revenues and receivables upon completion of the performance obligations and transfer of control of the product to the customer. For concentrate sales, the performance obligation is met, the transaction price can be reasonably estimated, and revenue is recognized generally at the time of shipment at estimated forward prices for the anticipated month of settlement. Due to the time elapsed from shipment to the customer and the final settlement with the customer, prices at which sales of concentrates will be settled are estimated. Previously recorded sales and accounts receivable are adjusted to estimated settlement metals prices until final settlement by the customer. The Company obtains the forward metals prices used for each period from Kitco For sales of doré and metals from doré, the performance obligation is met, the transaction price is known, and revenue is recognized at the time of transfer of control of the agreed-upon metal quantities to the customer by the refiner.

Sales and accounts receivable for concentrate shipments are recorded net of charges by the customer for treatment, refining, smelting losses, and other charges negotiated with the customers. Charges are estimated upon shipment of concentrates based on contractual terms, and actual charges typically do not vary materially from estimates. Costs charged by customers include fixed costs per ton of concentrate and price escalators. Refining, selling, and shipping costs related to sales of doré and metals from doré are recorded to cost of sales as incurred. See Note 4 for more information on the Company’s sales of products.

Other Revenue Recognition-Revenue from harvest of raw timber is recognized when the performance obligation under a contract and transfer of the timber have both been completed. Sales of timber found on the Company’s mineral properties are not a part of normal operations.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of full cost of production or estimated net realizable value based on current metal prices. Costs consist of mining, transportation, and milling costs including applicable overhead, depreciation, depletion, and amortization relating to the operations. Costs are allocated based on the stage at which the ore is in the production process. Supplies inventory is stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value.

Mine Exploration and Development Costs

The Company expenses exploration costs as such in the period they occur. The exploration stage occurs up until the point ore reserves are identified. The pre-development stage begins once the Company identifies ore reserves which is based on a determination whether an ore body can be economically developed. Expenditures incurred during the pre-development stage are capitalized as deferred development costs and include such costs for drifts, ramps, and infrastructure. Costs to improve, alter, or rehabilitate primary development assets which appreciably extend the life, increase capacity, or improve the efficiency or safety of such assets are also capitalized. The pre-development stage ends when the production stage of ore reserves begins, thus entering the secondary development stage.

Drilling, and related costs are either classified as exploration, pre-development or secondary development, as defined above, and charged to operations as incurred, or capitalized, based on the following criteria:

If all of these criteria are met, drilling, development and related costs are capitalized. Drilling and development costs not meeting all of these criteria are expensed as incurred. The following factors are considered in determining whether or not the criteria listed above have been met, and capitalization of drilling and development costs is appropriate:

Amortization of development costs is calculated using the units-of-production method over the expected life as per the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10-35-4. This includes the cost to define proven and probable reserves and measured and indicated resources accessible via the Main Access Ramp (“MAR”). Measured resources are 90-100% interpolated, and indicated resources 75-80% interpolated, using a 2 grams per tonne gold cut-off grade at the diluted minimum mining width. Conservative estimation parameters (three samples within 25 meters for measured, two within 50 meters for indicated) and economic factors ensure viability. Inferred resources are excluded to reduce uncertainty, and therefore, the volumes are risk-adjusted. Assumptions are regularly evaluated, with material deviations disclosed to ensure a systematic and rational cost allocation. More information on the Company’s reserves and resources can be found in the Technical Report Summary For the Golden Chest Mine which was included as Exhibit 96.1 to the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2025.

Fair Value Measurements

When required to measure assets or liabilities at fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used. The Company determines the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. The categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2 uses significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 uses significant unobservable inputs. The amount of the total gains or losses for the period that are included in earnings are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no assets or liabilities that required measurement at fair value on a recurring basis other than its gold sales receivable.

Accounting for Investments in Joint Ventures (“JV”) and Equity Method Investments

Investment in JVs-For JVs where the Company holds more than 50% of the voting interest and has significant influence, the JV is consolidated with the presentation of non-controlling interest. In determining whether significant influence exists, the Company considers its participation in policy-making decisions and its representation on the venture’s management committee.

For JVs in which the Company does not have joint control or significant influence, the cost method is used. For those JVs in which there is joint control between the parties, the equity method is utilized whereby the Company’s share of the ventures’ earnings and losses is included in the statement of operations as earnings in JVs and its investments therein are adjusted by a similar amount. The Company periodically assesses its investments in JVs for impairment. If management determines that a decline in fair value is other than temporary it will write-down the investment and charge the impairment against operations.

Equity Method Investments-Investments in companies and joint ventures in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but do not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. In determining whether significant influence exists, the Company considers its participation in policy-making decisions and representation on governing bodies. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the net earnings or losses of the investee are included in net income (loss) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company evaluates equity method investments whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate the carrying amounts of such investments may be impaired. If a decline in the value of an equity method investment is determined to be other than temporary, a loss is recorded in earnings in the current period. At June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company's 37% common stock holding of Buckskin Gold and Silver, Inc. (“Buckskin”) is accounted for using the equity method (Note 11).

At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s percentage ownership and method of accounting for each JV and equity method investment is as follows:

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2025 financial statement presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity as previously reported. Cash flows were reclassified due to the US treasury notes.

Investments in US Treasury Notes

The Company holds short term investments in United States Treasury notes and are classified as held to maturity based on management’s intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Such debt securities are stated at cost, adjusted for unamortized purchase premiums and discounts and are amortized using the interest method over the stated terms of the securities. Amortization of the premium or discount is included in interest income on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates as a single operating segment. All financial information is presented on a consolidated basis and reviewed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM uses consolidated net income, as presented in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, to assess segment performance and allocate resources. The measure of segment assets is reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as total assets. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, amending income tax disclosure requirements for the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and are applied prospectively. Early adoption and retrospective application of the amendments are permitted. The Company does not believe there will be an impact from this update on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. The new disclosure requirements are effective for the Company's annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine the impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
