NOTE 2: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the Company’s subsidiaries, as described in Note 1.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, shareholders’ equity, or cash flows. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains the annual audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended December 31, 2025. The interim results for the period ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the Company’s directly and indirectly wholly owned subsidiaries: Gaia Energy Investments Ltd., Berlin (BVI) Limited and 2847312 Ontario Inc.

All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of liabilities and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates estimates used, which include, but are not limited to the: valuation of stock-based compensation; share-based consideration for acquisitions; and, the impairment of long-lived assets, including mineral properties.

Contingent consideration payable to a seller in an asset acquisition is recognized when the contingency is resolved and the amount payable is fixed or determinable. Consistent with the general asset-acquisition cost accumulation model, the Company’s policy is to capitalize such amounts as an addition to the cost basis of the related asset. However, if at the date the contingency is resolved the carrying value of the related asset (after giving effect to any previously recognized impairment) already reflects its estimated fair value or recoverable amount, and no intervening increase in fair value or recoverable amount has occurred, the Company concludes that the additional consideration does not represent probable future economic benefit and therefore does not meet the definition of an asset. In accordance with ASC 360-10-35, previously recognized impairment losses are not reversed, and the carrying amount established at the most recent impairment measurement remains the cost basis against which recoverability is assessed. Consequently, if capitalizing the contingent consideration in these circumstances would require the immediate recognition of an offsetting impairment charge for the full amount capitalized, the Company records the settlement of such contingent consideration directly as an expense in the period the contingency is resolved.

As of June 30, 2026, there are no additional recently issued or adopted accounting standards that could have a material impact on these consolidated financial statements.

Contingent liabilities

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, that may result in a loss to the Company but that will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Such losses are disclosed as contingent liabilities if it’s not both probable and reasonably estimable. Our management assesses such contingent liabilities and estimated legal fees, if any. Such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings. Our management evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

Management’s best estimates regarding the restoration provisions are based on the current economic environment. Changes in estimates of contamination, restoration standards and restoration activities result in changes to provisions from period to period. Actual restoration provisions will ultimately depend on future market prices for future restoration obligations. Management has determined that the Company has no restoration obligations on acquisition of the mineral properties and as at June 30, 2026.
