INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

To the Shareholders of

Scorpio Gold Corporation

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Scorpio Gold Corporation (the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.

 

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS Accounting Standards).

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the consolidated financial statements in Canada, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audit is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

 

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

 

We draw attention to Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that the Company will require additional financing to complete its strategic objectives to continue as a going concern. As at December 31, 2025, the Company had working capital of $8,206,299 which management estimates will not provide the Company with sufficient financial resources to carry out currently planned operations in the next twelve months. As stated in Note 1, these events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

 

Key Audit Matters

 

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

 

In addition to the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter to be communicated in our auditor’s report.

Assessment of Impairment Indicators of Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E Assets) and Mineral Properties (E&E Assets) Cash Generating Unit (CGU)

 

As described in Note 8 & 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the carrying amount of the Company’s PP&E Assets was $1,148,495 and E&E Assets was $9,107,359 as of December 31, 2025. As more fully described in Notes 3 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, management assesses PP&E Assets and E&E Assets for indicators of impairment at each reporting period.

 

The principal considerations for our determination that the assessment of impairment indicators of the CGU is a key audit matter are that there was judgment made by management when assessing whether there were indicators of impairment for the PP&E Assets and E&E Assets, specifically relating to the assets’ carrying amount which is impacted by the Company’s intent and ability to continue to explore and evaluate these assets. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures to evaluate audit evidence relating to the judgments made by management in their assessment of indicators of impairment that could give rise to the requirement to prepare an estimate of the recoverable amount of the CGU.

 

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. Our audit procedures included, among others:

 

Evaluating management’s assessment of impairment indicators.

Evaluating the intent for the PP&E Assets and E&E Assets through discussion and communication with management.

Reviewing the Company’s recent expenditure activity.

Assessing compliance with agreements and expenditure requirements including reviewing option agreements and vouching cash payments and share issuances.

Assessing the Company’s right to explore it E&E Assets.

Obtaining, on a test basis, confirmation of title to ensure mineral rights underlying the E&E Assets are in good standing.

 

Other Information

 

Management is responsible for the other information. The other information obtained at the date of this auditor’s report includes Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

 

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

 

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

 

We obtained Management’s Discussion and Analysis prior to the date of this auditor’s report. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

 

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting 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.

 

 

 

 

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

 

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

 

As part of an audit in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Company’s internal control.

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

 

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

 

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

 

 

 

 

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

 

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Stephen Hawkshaw.

Scorpio Gold Corporation

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

(Expressed in United States Dollars)

 

1.Nature of operations and going concern

 

Scorpio Gold Corporation (the “Company” or “Scorpio”) is a publicly traded company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. The Company’s shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) and trade under the symbol SGN. The corporate office of the Company is located at Suite 750 – 1095 West Pender Street Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 2M6. The Company and its subsidiaries conduct mineral exploitation activities in the United States of America (“USA”).

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business in the foreseeable future. As at December 31, 2025, the Company had a working capital of $8,206,299 (December 31, 2024 – deficiency of $2,300,931). Management estimates that these funds will not provide the Company with sufficient financial resources to carry out currently planned operations through the next twelve months. Additional financing will be required by the Company to complete its strategic objectives and continue as a going concern. While the Company has been successful in the past in obtaining financing, there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that such financing will be on terms acceptable to the Company. These material uncertainties may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

These consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumption were not appropriate.

 

The consolidated financial statements of Scorpio for the year ended December 31, 2025 were approved by the Board of Directors on April 23, 2026.

 

2. basis of preparation

 

These consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

 

The policies set out below were consistently applied to all periods presented unless otherwise noted below.

 

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

 

Basis of preparation

These consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared on the basis of IFRS standards that are published at the time of preparation and that are effective on December 31, 2025.

Control exists when the Company has the power over its investees, is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and has the ability to use its power to affect its returns. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Profit and loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the shareholders of the Company and to the non-controlling interest.

 

The Company ceased to consolidate the financial information of MRG as of August 25, 2025 when the Company disposed the subsidiary and the financial information of Altus Gold Mining Corp. on April 15, 2025 when the Company dissolved the inactive subsidiary.

 

All intercompany accounts, revenues and expenses transactions have been eliminated. All subsidiaries have a reporting date of December 31.

 

Foreign currency translation

 

Functional and presentation currency

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollar (“$”). The functional currency of the parent company, Scorpio and its Canadian subsidiary, Altus, are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which Scorpio and Altus operate (“the functional currency”), which is the Canadian dollar (“C$”). These consolidated financial statements have been translated to the US$ in accordance with IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. This standard requires that assets and liabilities be translated using the exchange rate at period end, and income, expenses and cash flow items are translated using the rate that approximates the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions (i.e. the average rate for the period). All resulting exchange differences are recognized directly in other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Transactions and balances

In preparing the financial statements of the individual entities, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At each statement of financial position date, monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the period end foreign exchange rate. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the historical rate on the date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are stated at fair value are translated using the historical rate on the date that the fair value was determined. All gains and losses on translation of these foreign currency transactions are included in profit or loss.

 

3. SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the Company’s management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Information about critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

3. SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

Critical judgments

 

Capitalization of exploration and evaluation costs and determination of economic viability of a project

Management has determined that exploration, development and evaluation costs incurred which were capitalized have future economic benefits. Management uses several criteria in its assessment of economic recoverability and probability of future economic benefit including geological and metallurgical information, accessible facilities, existing permits and life of mine plans.

 

Determination of functional currency

The functional currency of the Company and its US subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The Company has determined that its functional currency and that of its US subsidiaries is the US dollar, and the functional currency of the parent company and its Canadian subsidiary, Altus, is the Canadian dollar. Determination of functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment in which the entity operates and the Company reconsiders functional currency if there is a change in events and conditions which determined the primary economic environment.

 

The Company made the judgment that the parent company’s functional currency changed from US dollars to Canadian dollars on January 1, 2024 due to the change of the parent company’s primary economic environment including, but not limited to its equity and debt financing conditions and increased operation costs as a public company. This change has been accounted for prospectively. The resulting translated amounts for non-monetary items measured at historical costs are not adjusted retrospectively.

 

Estimates

 

Asset carrying values and impairment

The Company performs impairment testing when impairment indicators are present. In the determination of carrying values and impairment charges, management considers the recoverable amount which is the greater of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use in the case of mining assets. These determinations and their individual assumptions require that management make a decision based on the best available information at each reporting period.

 

Mineral reserve estimates

The figures for mineral reserves and mineral resources are determined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects”, issued by the Canadian Securities Administrators. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral reserves and mineral resources, including many factors beyond the Company’s control. Such estimation is a subjective process, and the accuracy of any mineral reserve or mineral resource estimate is a function of the quantity and quality of available data and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation. Differences between management’s assumptions including economic assumptions such as metal prices and market conditions could have a material effect in the future on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

3. SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

Recognition of deferred taxes

In assessing the probability of realizing income tax assets, management makes estimates related to expectations of future taxable income, applicable tax opportunities, expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences and the likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities. In making its assessments, management gives additional weight to positive and negative evidence that can be objectively verified.

 

Estimates of future taxable income are based on forecasted cash flows from operations and the application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction. Forecasted cash flows from operations are based on life of mine projections internally developed and reviewed by management. Weight is attached to tax planning opportunities that are within the Company’s control, and are feasible and implementable without significant obstacles. The likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon examination by applicable tax authorities is assessed based on individual facts and circumstances of the relevant tax position evaluated in light of all available evidence. Where applicable tax laws and regulations are either unclear or subject to ongoing varying interpretations, it is reasonably possible that changes in these estimates may occur that materially affect the amounts of income tax assets recognized. At the end of each reporting period, the Company reassesses unrecognized deferred income tax assets.

 

Share-based payments

Estimating the fair value of share-based payments requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions at the grant of the share-based incentives. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected rate of forfeitures, expected life, price volatility, interest rate and dividend yield. Changes in the input assumptions can significantly affect the fair value estimate of the Company’s earnings and reserves.

 

Estimation of environmental rehabilitation and the timing of expenditure and related accretion

The Company’s provision for environmental rehabilitation represents management’s best estimate of the present value of the future cash outflows required to settle estimated reclamation and closure costs at the end of mine’s life. The provision reflects estimates of future costs, inflation and assumptions of risks associated with the future cash outflows, and the applicable interest rates for discounting the future cash outflows. Changes in the above factors can result in a change to the provision recognized by the Company.

 

Changes to the provision for environmental rehabilitation are recorded with a corresponding change to the carrying amounts of related mining properties. Adjustments to the carrying amounts of related mining properties can result in a change to future depletion expense.

 

Estimation of present value of other receivable

The Company estimates a market interest rate in determining the present value of its other receivable to be received in one year (note 6). The determination of market interest rate is subjective and could significantly affect the fair value estimate.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

 

Cash and equivalents 

Cash and equivalents includes cash held at major financial institutions and highly liquid investment certificates that are readily available to the Company on demand or with maturity dates of three months or less.

 

Mineral properties 

All costs relating to the acquisition, exploration and development are deferred and capitalized by property up to the point of commercial production. Costs relating to areas of interest abandoned are written off when such a decision is made.

 

The Company reviews the carrying values of its non-producing mining assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may exceed their estimated recoverable amounts. The recoverability of amounts shown is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to finance the development of the properties, and on the future profitable production or proceeds from the disposal thereof. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of those assets exceeds its estimated net recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs of disposal and value in use.

 

Property, plant and equipment 

Property, plant and equipment are initially recognized at cost. As well as the purchase price, cost includes directly attributable costs and the estimated present value of any future costs of dismantling and removing items. The corresponding liability is recognized within provisions. All items of equipment and vehicles are subsequently carried at depreciated cost less impairment losses, if any.

 

Depreciation is provided on all items of property, plant and equipment to write off the carrying value of items over their expected useful economic lives. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment at the following annual rates:

 

Mobile equipment and vehicles 5-7 years straight-line

Furniture and office equipment 3-4 years straight-line

 

Material residual value estimates and estimates of useful life are updated as required, but at least annually.

 

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset as appropriate, only when it’s probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replacement part is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial year in which they are incurred.

 

No depreciation was charged to the mining interest.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

 

Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company assesses at each reporting date whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company estimates the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s cash-generating unit’s (“CGU”) fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the asset is tested as part of a larger CGU. Where the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. In determining fair value less costs of disposal, recent market transactions are taken into account, if available. If no such transactions can be identified, an appropriate valuation model is used. These calculations are corroborated by valuation multiples, quoted share prices for publicly traded subsidiaries or other available fair value indicators.

 

For mineral properties, indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, expiration of a right to explore, no budgeted or planned material expenditure in an area, or a decision to discontinue exploration in a specific area.

 

Impairment losses of continuing operations are recognized in net loss in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

 

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or CGU) in prior years.

 

Provision for environmental rehabilitation

 

The Company recognizes contractual, statutory, legal and constructive obligations associated with retirement of mining properties when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. Initially, a liability for provision for environmental rehabilitation is recognized at its fair value in the period in which it is incurred which is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. Upon initial recognition of the liability, the corresponding environmental rehabilitation cost is added to the carrying amount of that asset and the cost is amortized as an expense over the economic life of the related asset. Following the initial recognition of the provision for environmental rehabilitation, the carrying amount of the liability is increased for the passage of time and adjusted for changes in regulatory requirements and assumptions regarding the amount or timing of the underlying cash flows to settle the obligation and changes to the discount rate.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

 

Share-based payments

 

Share-based payment transactions

Employees (including directors and senior executives) of the Company, and individuals providing similar services to those performed by direct employees, receive a portion of their remuneration in the form of share-based payment transactions, whereby employees render services as consideration for equity instruments (“equity-settled transactions”). The costs of equity-settled transactions with employees are measured by reference to the fair value at the date on which they are granted.

 

In situations where equity instruments are issued to non-employees and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot be specifically identified, they are measured at the fair value of the share-based payment. Otherwise, share-based payments issued to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received.

 

Equity-settled transactions

The costs of equity-settled transactions are recognized, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the year in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled, ending on the date on which the relevant employees become fully entitled to the award (the “vesting date”). The cumulative expense is recognized for equity-settled transactions at each reporting date until the vesting date reflects the Company’s best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The profit or loss charge or credit for a year represents the movement in cumulative expense recognized as at the beginning and end of that year and the corresponding amount is represented in stock option reserve. No expense is recognized for awards that do not ultimately vest. For those awards that expire after vesting, the recorded value is transferred to other reserve.

 

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, the minimum expense recognized is the expense as if the terms had not been modified. An additional expense is recognized for any modification which increases the total fair value of the share-based payment arrangement, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification.

 

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional dilution in the computation of earnings per share unless it is considered to be anti-dilutive.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

 

Loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. The diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution of common share equivalents, such as outstanding stock options, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, if dilutive. The number of additional shares is calculated using the assumed proceeds upon the exercise of stock options that are used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the reporting periods if dilutive.

 

Financial instruments

 

Financial assets

 

Classification and measurement

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) or at amortized cost. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

 

The classification of debt instruments is driven by the business model for managing the financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Debt instruments are measured at amortized cost if the business model is to hold the instrument for collection of contractual cash flows and those cash flows are solely principal and interest. If the business model is not to hold the debt instrument, it is classified as FVTPL. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether their cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest.

 

Equity instruments that are held for trading (including all equity derivative instruments) are classified as FVTPL, for other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election (on an instrument by-instrument basis) to designate them as at FVTOCI.

 

Financial assets at FVTOCI – Investments in equity instruments at FVTOCI are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. Subsequently they are measured at fair value, with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. There is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment.

 

Financial assets at amortized cost – Financial assets at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost less any impairment. They are classified as current assets or non-current assets based on their maturity date.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

 

Financial instruments (continued)

 

Impairment of financial assets at amortized cost

The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at amortized cost. At each reporting date, the loss allowance for the financial asset is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the loss allowance is measured for the financial asset at an amount equal to twelve month expected credit losses.

 

Impairment losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized.

 

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognized when they mature or are sold, and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTPL or amortized cost are recognized in profit or loss. Gains or losses on financial assets classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

Financial liabilities

 

Classification and measurement

The Company classifies its financial liabilities into one of two categories as follows:

 

Fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) – This category comprises derivatives and financial liabilities incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

 

Other financial liabilities – This category consists of liabilities carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

 

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires.

 

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the profit or loss.

4. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (continued)

 

Convertible notes

A convertible note is considered to be a compound financial instrument which requires assessment to determine if it contains a liability and an equity component related to the conversion feature. When the conversion feature is for a variable number of shares, there is no equity component but rather there is a potential embedded derivative.

 

An embedded derivative is a component of a hybrid contract that also includes a non-derivative host with the effect that some of the cash flows of the combined instrument vary in a way similar to a stand-alone derivative. An embedded derivative causes some or all of the cash flows that otherwise would be required by the contract to be modified according to a specified interest rate, financial instrument price, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, or other variable.

 

The host instrument is accounted for as a compound instrument with a debt component and a separate embedded derivative component classified as a liability. The initial carrying amount of the host instrument is the residual amount after separating the embedded derivative which is measured at fair value.

 

The debt component is subsequently accounted for at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The embedded derivative is subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date, with gains and losses in fair value recognized in profit or loss.

 

Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the debt are allocated to the liability and embedded derivative components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the embedded derivative liability component are expensed directly in profit and loss and transaction costs relating to the financial liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortized over the expected lives of the convertible instrument using the effective interest method.

 

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) that has arisen as a result of a past event and it is probable that a future outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, provided that a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

 

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risk specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.

Taxation

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

 

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

 

Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting or taxable profit; and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the financial position reporting date.

 

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

 

New accounting standards

The following standard is effective for future periods:

 

On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued a new standard – IFRS 18, “Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements” with a focus on updates to the statement of profit or loss. The key new concepts introduced in IFRS 18 relate to:

 

●          the structure of the statement of profit or loss;

●          required disclosures in the financial statements for certain profit or loss performance measures that are reported outside an entity’s financial statements (that is, management-defined performance measures); and

●          enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

 

IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1; many of the other existing principles in IAS 1 are retained, with limited changes. IFRS 18 will apply for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027. Retrospective application is required and early application is permitted.

 

Management is currently assessing the effect of this new standard on the consolidated financial statements.

5. Acquisition of altus

 

On February 23, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of Altus Gold Corp. (“Altus”) by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the “Transaction”) in which the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, 1455812 B.C. Ltd. (“Subco”) amalgamated with Altus to form the entity Scorpio Gold BC Holding Corp. (“Amalco”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company issued to the former shareholders of Altus an aggregate of 22,839,611 common shares of the Company in exchange for their common shares of Altus. In addition, 10,523,605 warrants with an exercise price ranging from CA$0.10 to $0.25 issued by Altus (the “Altus Warrants”) prior to the Transaction were exchanged for the Company’s warrants on a 1:1 basis.

 

As a result of the Transaction, Amalco now holds an option to acquire a 90% interest in the mineral exploration project in Esmeralda County, Nevada referred to as the Northstar property, adjacent to the Company’s Mineral Ridge Project (Note 9).

 

The bridge loan advanced by Altus to the Company was forgiven by Altus in connection with the Transaction, with no obligation or liability for the Company to convert the bridge loan into common shares of the Company (Note 11). In connection with closing of the Transaction, the Company issued an aggregate of 36,800,000 units in a private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of C$5,520,000 (Note 14).

 

The Transaction has been accounted for by the Company as a purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities. The Transaction did not qualify as a business combination under IFRS 3 - Business Combinations, as the significant inputs, processes and outputs, that together constitute a business, did not exist in Altus at the time of the Transaction.

 

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation:

6. SALE OF MINERAL RIDGE GOLD, LLC

 

On July 16, 2025, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Scorpio US, entered into a definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) with an arm’s length third party (the “Purchaser”), for the sale of MRG, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scorpio US (the “Transaction”).

 

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Purchaser will acquire all membership interests in MRG, along with the related unpatented mining claims comprising MRG’s Mineral Ridge project located in Esmeralda County, Nevada (the “Project”), for an aggregate cash purchase price of $7,500,000. $700,000 of the purchase price will be advanced by the Purchaser as a non-refundable deposit to the Company by August 7, 2025 (Received). $4,300,000 is due upon closing, which is expected to occur no later than August 25, 2025 (Received). On completion of the Transaction, $1,500,000 of the purchase price will be retained in escrow as an indemnification holdback, with such funds being released to the Company on the 3-month (as to 50%, $750,000 received) and 9-month (as to 50%) anniversaries of the closing date, as well as an additional $1,000,000 to be paid on the 12-month anniversary of the closing date, by the Purchaser to the Company. The Purchaser will also replace or assume the reclamation bond obligations of the Company and Scorpio US related to the Project. Certain assets associated with the Project will be retained by the Company and transferred to its subsidiary, Scorpio US, in advance of closing.

 

On August 25, 2025, the Transaction closed. As at August 25, 2025, the Company measured the present value of the $2,500,000 of proceeds to be received in future dates as at $2,376,488, using a discount rate of 7.30% as determined from its incremental borrowing rate. During the period from August 25, 2025 to the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company received $750,000 of receivables and recorded $53,997 of accretion of interest income. As of December 31, 2025, the balance of other receivable is $1,680,485.

 

The sales of MRG resulted in a gain of $9,158,869. Details of the disposal are as follows:

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (“NDEP”) reviewed and revised their estimate of reclamation costs at MRG which is used to determine the required surety in place. This revised estimate required the Company to increase the surety by $2,885,806. As a result, the Company added $1,212,959 to the cash collateral with Sompo, the Company’s surety partner, to meet NDEP’s requirement (the remainder is covered by a bond with Sompo). As of December 31, 2024, the Company had total reclamation bonds of $17,575,323 and entered into an agreement with a surety under which the cash collateral was $9,839,371, consisting of $9,569,508 for Mineral Ridge and $269,863 for Goldwedge.

 

On August 25, 2025, the Company disposed of MRG (Note 6). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company paid $9,000,000 in October 2025 to the purchaser who took over the reclamation bond requirement of MRG.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (“NDEP”) reviewed and revised their estimate of reclamation costs at Goldwedge which is used to determine the required surety in place. This revised estimate required the Company to increase the surety to $969,350. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a surety bond balance of $1,134,836 for Goldwedge, which is sufficient to cover the request.

9. MINERAL PROPERTIES (continued)

 

Northstar property 

The Company acquired the Northstar property in connection with Transaction discussed in Note 5.

 

Altus entered into a property option agreement (the “Northstar Agreement”) with Guardian Angel LLC and Silver Spartan LLC (collectively the “Northstar Optionors”), and Altus Capital Partners Inc. (the “Altus Capital”) granted an exclusive option to acquire a 90% undivided interest in unpatented lode mining claims located in Esmeralda County (the “Esmeralda Property”) and right of first offer to acquire the claims located in Esmeralda County, Nevada (the “ROFR Claims”).

 

Pursuant to the Northstar Agreement, the Company is required to make:

 

A total cash payment of $60,000, which was paid by Altus prior to the Transaction;

Cash payments in amounts equal to the gold price for 599.5 oz of gold;

Issue 12,000,000 common shares of Altus Gold or the Company of which 3,000,000 common shares were issued by Altus prior to the Transaction and 4,000,000 common shares were issued by the Company on April 10, 2024 (Note 14); and

Incur $1,900,000 in exploration expenditures on the project.

 

The agreement is subject to a 2% net smelter royalty to the Northstar Optionors.

 

The Company is default on cash payment under the option agreement. As a result, the option agreement was terminated and the Company wrote off the Northstar property as of December 31, 2024.

 

Mineral ridge property

 

The Company suspended mining operations of its Mineral Ridge mine in November 2017 as the Company had mined all of its economical mineral reserves based on gold pricing and heap leach recovery parameters.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company reassessed the environmental rehabilitation liability and increased its estimation by $8,071,144. (Note 13)

 

On August 25, 2025, the Company disposed Mineral Ridge (Note 6).

21. Capital management

 

Capital is defined as equity attributable to shareholders’ equity. The Company’s objectives when managing its capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to maximize the value for its shareholders.

 

The Company’s activities have been primarily funded so far through cash flows from operating activities and equity and debt financing based on cash needs. The Company typically sells its shares by way of private placement.

 

The Company manages its capital structure and determines its capital requirements in light of the changing economic conditions and the risk characteristics of its assets. To reach its objectives, the Company may need to maintain or adjust its capital structure by issuing new share capital or new debt.

 

At this stage of its development, it is the Company’s policy to preserve cash to fund its operations and not to pay dividends.

22. Financial instruments

 

Fair value

The carrying values of cash and equivalents, receivables, other receivables, reclamation deposits, bank overdrafts, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans payable approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the Company’s investments is recorded at fair value using Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, respectively.

 

The Company’s financial instruments recorded at fair value require disclosure about how the fair value was determined based on significant levels of inputs described in the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and value to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

 

Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1. Prices in Level 2 are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value and volatility factors, which can be substantially observed or corroborated in the market place.

 

Level 3 - Valuations in this level are those with inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

Financial risk management

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

 

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company’s credit risk is attributable to cash and equivalents, receivables, other receivable, and reclamation bonds. The credit risk on cash, as well as reclamation bonds is limited because the Company invests its cash and reclamation bonds in deposits with well capitalized financial institutions with strong credit ratings. The Company has no past due accounts and has not recorded a provision for doubtful accounts.

 

Liquidity risk

The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. The Company’s current policy to manage liquidity risk is to keep cash in bank accounts.

 

The following table outlines the expected maturity of the Company’s significant financial liabilities into relevant maturity grouping based on the remaining period from the date of the statement of financial position to the contractual maturity date:

 

   Total   Less than 1 year   1 to 3 years   4 to 5 years   More than 5 years 
   $   $   $   $   $ 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   1,697,289    1,697,289             
Loans payable   507,601    507,601             
    2,028,005    2,028,005

22. Financial instruments (continued)

 

Financial risk management (continued)

 

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk and price risk.

 

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The 2022 Credit Facility is fixed at an interest rate of 12.375% per annum and accordingly is not subject to cash flow interest rate risk due to changes in the market rate of interest. The Company does not use financial derivatives to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.

 

Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company are not denominated in US Dollars (“US$”). The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are held in US$ and Canadian Dollars (“CA”); therefore, CA$ accounts are subject to fluctuation against the US Dollars.

 

The Company had the following balances in foreign currency as at December 31, 2025:

 

   US$   CA$ 
Cash and equivalents   1,042,516    10,004,280 
Receivables       191,728 
Other receivable   1,680,485     
Reclamation deposits   1,134,836     
Investments       960 
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities   (1,174,735)   (716,599)
Loans payable       (696,093)
    2,683,102    8,784,276 
Rate to convert to $1.00 US$   1.00000    0.729214 
Equivalent to US$   2,683,102    6,405,617 

 

Based on the above net exposures as at December 31, 2025, and assuming that all other variables remain constant, a 10% appreciation or depreciation of the US$ against the CA$ would increase/decrease comprehensive loss by $640,562.
