Pacific North West Capital Corp. Condensed Consolidated Interim Statements of Financial Position As at 31 July 2011, 30 April 2011 and 1 May 2010 (Unaudited) |
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars) |
1. | Nature of operations and going concern |
| Pacific North West Capital Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on 29 May 1996 and on 13 July 2004, the Company continued out of the Province of Alberta and into the Province of British Columbia. The Company is in the process of acquiring, exploring and developing Platinum Group Metals (“PGMs”), precious and base metals mineral properties. The Company will attempt to bring the properties to production, structure joint ventures with others, option or lease properties to third parties, or sell the properties outright. The Company has not determined whether these properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable and the Company is considered to be in the exploration stage. |
| The Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at 31 July 2011 and for the three month period then ended have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has a net loss of $1,017,525 for the three month period ended 31 July 2011 (2010 - $541,064) and has working capital of $7,891,519 at 31 July 2011 (30 April 2011 - $8,608,818). |
| The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,251,414 at 31 July 2011 (30 April 2011 - $3,880,196), but management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital in the immediate future, management expects that the Company will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favourable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures or cease operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. |
2. | Significant accounting policies |
| These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”, using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). |
| These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company’s wholly owned US and Mexican subsidiaries, Pacific North West Capital Corp. USA, Pacific North West Capital de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., respectively. Inter-company balances are eliminated upon consolidation. |
| Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions |
| The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates. |

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars) |
2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
| Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions (continued) |
| Areas requiring a significant degree of estimation and judgment relate to the fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based payments, the recognition and valuation of provisions for restoration and environmental liabilities, the recoverability and measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and ability to continue as a going concern. Actual results may differ from those estimates and judgments. |
| Cash and Cash Equivalents |
| The Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities at point of purchase of 90 days or less. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with institutions of high-credit worthiness. |
| Financial assets are classified as loans and receivables, available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition. Financial assets are recognized initially at fair value. The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows: |
| Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method if the time value of money is significant. Gains and losses are recognized in profit or loss when the loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. Amounts receivables are included in this category of financial assets. |
| Available-for-sale financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are not classified as loans and receivables. After initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value, with gains or losses recognized within other comprehensive income. Accumulated changes in fair value are recorded as a separate component of equity until the investment is derecognized or impaired. Available-for-sale assets include shares held in other public companies. |
| The fair value is determined by reference to bid prices at the close of business on the reporting date. Where there is no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. Where fair value cannot be reliably measured, assets are carried at cost. |
| Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss |
| Financial assets are classified as held for trading and are included in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by management. Derivatives, other than those designated as effective hedging instruments, are also categorized as held for trading. These assets are carried at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. Cash and cash equivalents and share purchase warrants of other public companies are included in this category of financial assets. |

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars) |
2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
| Derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge |
| The Company does not hold or have any exposure to derivative instruments. |
| Impairment of Financial Assets |
| Financial assets, other than financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each period end. |
| If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss on loans and receivables carried at amortized cost have been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced, with the amount of the loss recognized in profit or loss. |
| If an available-for-sale financial asset is impaired, the cumulative loss previously recognized in equity is transferred to profit or loss. Any subsequent recovery in the fair value of the asset is recognized within other comprehensive income. |
| Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, or as financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, as appropriate. The Company determines the classification of its financial liabilities at initial recognition. The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as follows: |
| Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss |
| Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss has two subcategories, including financial liabilities held for trading and those designated by management on initial recognition. These liabilities are carried at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. |
| Derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge |
| The Company does not hold or have any exposure to derivative instruments. |
| Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost |
| All other financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs. After initial recognition, other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any issue costs, and any discount or premium on settlement. Gains and losses arising on the repurchase, settlement or cancellation of liabilities are recognized respectively in interest, other revenues and finance costs. Trade payables are included in this category of financial liabilities. |

2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
| Exploration and Evaluation Properties |
| Direct costs related to the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties held or controlled by the Company are deferred on an individual property basis until the viability of a property is determined. Administration costs and general exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When a property is placed in commercial production, deferred costs will be depleted using the units-of-production method. Management of the Company periodically reviews the recoverability of the capitalized mineral properties. Management takes into consideration various information including, but not limited to, results of exploration activities conducted to date, estimated future metal prices, and reports and opinions of outside geologists, mine engineers and consultants. When it is determined that a project or property will be abandoned then the costs are written off, or if its carrying value has been impaired, then the mineral properties and deferred costs are written down to fair value. |
| Ownership in exploration and evaluation properties involves certain risks due to the difficulties of determining and obtaining clear title to claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyance history characteristics of many exploration and evaluation properties. |
| Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to research permits and/or properties in which it has an option to acquire an interest or has an interest, according to the usual industry standards for the stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects. |
| The carrying amount of the Company’s assets is reviewed for an indication of impairment at the end of each reporting period. If an indication of impairment exists, the Company makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. Individual assets are grouped for impairment assessment purposes at the lowest level at which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. Recoverable amount of an asset group is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. Where the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset group is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are adjusted for the risks specific to the asset group and are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. |
| An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss had been recognized. |

| from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work is expensed as exploration and evaluation costs with a corresponding increase in the restoration provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflect the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value. |
| The restoration asset will be depreciated on the same basis as other mining assets. |
| The Company’s estimates of restoration costs could change as a result of changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates and assumptions regarding the amount and timing of the future expenditures. These changes are expensed as exploration and evaluation costs with a corresponding entry to the restoration provision. The Company’s estimates are reviewed annually for changes in regulatory requirements, discount rates, effects of inflation and changes in estimates. |
| Changes in the net present value, excluding changes in the Company’s estimates of reclamation costs, are charged to profit and loss for the period. The net present value of restoration costs arising from subsequent site damage that is incurred on an ongoing basis during production are charged to profit or loss in the period incurred. The costs of restoration projects that were included in the provision are recorded against the provision as incurred. The costs to prevent and control environmental impacts at specific properties are expensed in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation assets. |
| Property, Plant and Equipment |
| Property, plant and equipment are valued at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company provides for depreciation using the declining balance method as follows: |
| | | |
| Automobile | 20% | |
| Furniture and office equipment | 30% | |
| | | |
| When an item of property, plant and equipment consists of major components with different useful lives, the components are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment. Expenditures incurred to replace a component of an item of property, plant and equipment that is accounted for separately, including major inspection and overhaul expenditures, are capitalized. |
| Share-based payments to employees are measured at the fair value of the instruments issued and recognized over the vesting periods. Share-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. The corresponding amount is recorded to the stock options reserve. The fair value of options is determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that the amount recognized for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest. |

2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
| Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the year. The effect of potential issuances of shares under options and warrants would be anti-dilutive, and therefore basic and diluted loss per share are the same. |
| Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. |
| Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. |
| The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date 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. |
| Deferred 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 the tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. |
| Foreign Currency Translation |
| The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars which is the functional and presentation currency of the Company and its subsidiaries. |
| Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the period-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. |
| Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items or on settlement of monetary items are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. |
| Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognized in other comprehensive income in the statement of comprehensive income to the extent that gains and losses arising on those non-monetary items are also recognized in other comprehensive income. Where the non-monetary gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss, the exchange component is also recognized in profit or loss. |

2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) |
| Any premium received by the Company on the issuance of flow-through shares is initially recorded as a liability and included in trade payables and accrued liabilities. Upon renouncement by the Company of the tax benefits associated with the related expenditures, a deferred tax liability is recognized and the flow-through liability will be reversed. To the extent that suitable deferred tax assets are available, the Company will reduce the deferred tax liability and record a deferred tax recovery. |

6. | Exploration and evaluation properties (continued) |
| a. | BC Rock & Roll, British Columbia |
| On 28 July 2009, the Company obtained an option from Misty Creek Ventures Ltd. (Misty Creek Ventures Ltd. was dissolved in January 2010 and its interest was transferred to Equity Exploration Consultants Ltd.), First Fiscal Enterprises Ltd. and Pamicon Developments Ltd. (collectively the “Vendors”) on the Rock & Roll property (the “Property”), located in the Liard Mining District approximately 9 km west of the Bronson airstrip and exploration camp in northern British Columbia. Under the terms of the Letter Agreement, the Company can earn a 100% interest in the Property over a four year period by completing $2,000,000 ($594,830 incurred) in exploration expenditures, paying the Vendors $130,000 and providing the Vendors with a total of 600,000 of the Company's shares (100,000 shares issued) (Note 7b). The Vendors will retain a 2% Net Smelter Return ("NSR"), of which 1% can be purchased for $3,000,000. The property is also subject to an underlying NSR of 3% and an underlying Net Profits Interest Royalty ("NPI") of 15%, both of which are payable to Prime Equities International Corporation, and both of which are purchasable by the Forrest Syndicate and/or heirs and assignees in their entirety for $1,500,000 each. |
| By agreement dated 14 July 1999, the Company granted to Kaymin Resources Limited (“Kaymin”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Anglo Platinum Limited, an option to earn up to a 65% interest in the Company’s portion of certain properties, including the River Valley property, the Goldwright property, the Frontier property (these claims were allowed to lapse on 12 December 2006), the Washagami property (these claims were allowed to lapse on 10 December 2008), the Razor property and the Western Front property (Notes 6b(i)-6b(iv) respectively), in the Sudbury Region of Ontario. During a prior year, Kaymin elected to vest obtaining a 50% interest in the properties upon having paid the Company $300,000 (received in a prior year) and advanced and spent in excess of $4,000,000 for exploration on the properties. |
| Kaymin continued to fund exploration under the terms of JV until 2007 and invested over $22M in the exploration of the property; however, as a result of capital expenditure reductions during the global financial crisis in 2008, no new funds were allocated to the River Valley Project above and beyond the minimal holding costs. |
| By way of a Mineral Interest Assignment Agreement dated for reference 13 December 2010, as amended on 6 April 2011 (“Assignment Agreement”), the Company completed the purchase of Kaymin’s 50% interest in the River Valley claims, providing the Company with an undivided 100% interest in the River Valley PGM Project. Under the terms of the Assignment Agreement, Kaymin exchanged its 50% interest in the JV, for a 12% interest in the Company, based on the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company as of 30 November 2010 (67,543,008 common shares). The aggregate purchase price for the 50% interest in the River Valley PGM project was: |
| - 8,117,161 fully paid and non-assessable common shares of the Company (issued) (Note 7b); and
|
| - Three-year warrants exercisable to purchase 3,000,000 common shares of the Company at a price of $0.30 per common share (issued) (Notes 7b and 7g).

| The Company has significant non-capital tax loss carry-forwards as well as accumulated Canadian and foreign exploration and development expenses that are available to reduce Canadian taxable income of future periods. Due to uncertainty surrounding the realization of future income tax assets, the Company has recognized a 100% valuation allowance against its future income tax assets. As such, no future income tax asset is recorded on the balance sheet. |
9. | Related party transactions |
| The key management personnel compensation for the three month period ended 31 July 2011 and 2010 is as follows: |
| | | 31 July 2011 | | | 31 July 2010 | |
| Management and consulting fees | | 249,782 | | | 91,074 | |
| Salaries and wages | | 9,300 | | | 13,950 | |
| Share-based payments | | 81,820 | | | - | |
| | | 340,902 | | | 105,024 | |
| Included in amounts receivable at 31 July 2011 are amounts totalling $Nil (30 April 2011 – $27,651, 1 May 2011 – $Nil) which are receivable for expense advances from Fire River, El Nino and Next Gen, companies with directors and officers in common. |
| All related party transactions are in the normal course of operations and measured at the exchange amount agreed to between the related parties. |
| The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the exploration of its mineral properties. The Board of Directors has not established quantitative capital structure criteria for management, but will review on a regular basis the capital structure of the Company to ensure its appropriateness to the stage of development of the business. |
| The properties in which the Company currently has interests are in the exploration stage and the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out planned exploration and development and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the size of the Company, is reasonable. |
| In order to facilitate the management of capital and development of its mineral properties, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets, which are updated as necessary. In addition, the Company may issue new equity shares, incur additional debt, option its mineral properties for cash and/or expenditure commitments from optionees, enter into joint venture agreements, or dispose of certain assets. The Company’s investment policy is to hold cash in interest bearing accounts at high credit quality financial institutions to maximize liquidity. In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay dividends. The Company expects to continue to raise funds, from time to time, to continue meeting its capital management objectives. |

| Disclosure of a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon transparency of inputs to the valuation of financial instruments carried on the balance sheet at fair values is as follows: |
| Level 1: | inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| Level 2: | inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability. |
| Level 3: | inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
| Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises primarily from the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and amounts receivable. The Company manages its credit risk relating to cash and cash equivalents by dealing with only with highly-rated financial institutions. As at 31 July 2011, amounts receivable was mainly comprised of Harmonized Sales Tax receivable of $208,369 (30 April 2011 - $184,818). As a result, credit risk is considered insignificant. |

11. | Financial instruments (continued) |
| The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent of its acquisition and exploration expenditures on its US properties and African property. The Company’s expenditures will be negatively impacted if the US dollar increases versus the Canadian dollar. |
| The majority of the Company’s cash flows and financial assets and liabilities are denominated in Canadian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and reporting currency. Foreign currency risk is limited to the portion of the Company’s business transactions denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar. The Company has cash and cash equivalents held in US dollars. |
| The Company’s objective in managing its foreign currency risk is to minimize its net exposures to foreign currency cash flows by holding most of its cash and cash equivalents in Canadian dollars. The Company monitors and forecasts the values of net foreign currency cash flow and balance sheet exposures and from time to time could authorize the use of derivative financial instruments such as forward foreign exchange contracts to economically hedge a portion of foreign currency fluctuations. |
| The following table provides an indication of the Company’s significant foreign currency exposures: |
| | | 31 July 2011 | | | 30 April 2011 | | | 1 May 2010 | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| Cash and cash equivalents | | US$ 783,816 | | | US$ 946,242 | | | US$ 732,412 | |
| The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. |
| Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring actual and projected cash flows and matching the maturity profile of financial assets and liabilities. As at 31 July 2011, the Company had $4,251,514 (30 April 2011 - $3,880,196) in cash and cash equivalents to settle trade payables of $238,835 (30 April 2011 - $403,338) and, accordingly, liquidity risk is considered insignificant. |
| Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk and commodity price risk arising from financial instruments. |

| Following events occurred during the period from the three month period ended 31 July 2011 to the date the financial statements were authorized by the Board of Directors on 13 October 2011: |
| On 8 August 2011, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement (“LA”) with Next Gen Metals Inc. (“Next Gen”) whereby Next Gen has been granted an option to acquire the Company’s 60% earn-in option interest in the Destiny Gold Project (Note 6d). |
| Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will grant to Next Gen an irrevocable right and option to acquire the Company’s right, title and interest in and to the option interest in the Destiny Gold Project, for an aggregate purchase price of: (i) a total of $675,000 in cash; (ii) 15,000,000 Next Gen common shares; and (iii) 4,000,000 Next Gen share purchase warrants exercisable into 4,000,000 common shares of Next Gen at varying prices for four years from their date of issuance. |
15. | Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards |
| IFRS 1, “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” sets forth guidance for the initial adoption of IFRS. The accounting policies in Note 2 have been applied in preparing the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended 31 July 2011, the comparative information for the three months ended 31 July 2010, the financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2011 and the preparation of an opening IFRS statement of financial position on 1 May 2010 (the “Transition Date”). |
| Set forth below are the IFRS 1 applicable exemptions and exceptions applied in the conversion from Canadian GAAP to IFRS. |
| IFRS 1 provides the option to apply IFRS 3, “Business Combinations”, retrospectively or prospectively from the Transition Date. The Company elected not to retrospectively apply IFRS 3 to business combinations that occurred prior to its Transition Date. |
| b) | Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements |
| In accordance with IFRS 1, if the Company elects to apply IFRS 3 retrospectively, IAS 27, “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements”, must also be applied retrospectively. As the Company elected to apply IFRS 3 prospectively, the Company has also elected to apply IAS 27 prospectively. |

(Expressed in Canadian Dollars) |
15. | Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (continued) |
| IFRS 1 encourages, but does not require, first-time adopters to apply IFRS 2, “Share-based Payment” to equity instruments that were granted on or before 7 November 2002, or equity instruments that were granted subsequent to 7 November 2002 and vested before the Transition Date. The Company elected not to apply IFRS 2 to equity instruments that vested prior to the Transition Date. |
| This resulted in an increase of stock options reserve as at the Transition Date of $36,851 with an increase in deficit of an equal amount, and an increase in share-based payment expense of $162,543 for the year ended 30 April 2011, of which $11,098 was adjusted for the three month period ended 31 July 2010. |
| d) | IFRS Mandatory Exception |
| In accordance with IFRS 1, the Company’s estimates under IFRS at the date of transition to IFRS must be consistent with estimates made for the same date under Canadian GAAP unless there is objective evidence that those estimates were in error. The estimates previously made by the Company under Canadian GAAP were not revised for application of IFRS. |
| Set forth below are other differences in accounting between Canadian GAAP and IFRS. |
| Flow-through shares are a unique Canadian tax incentive which is the subject of specific guidance under Canadian GAAP. Under Canadian GAAP, the Company accounted for the issue of flow-through shares in accordance with the provisions of CICA Emerging Issues Committee Abstract 146, “Flow-through Shares”. At the time of issue, the funds received are recorded as share capital. At the time of the filing of the renunciation of the qualifying flow-through expenditures to investors, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability with a charge directly to shareholders’ equity. Also under Canadian GAAP, a portion of the deferred tax assets that were not recognized in previous years, due to the recording of a valuation allowance, are recognized as a recovery of income taxes. |
| IFRS does not contain explicit guidance pertaining to this tax incentive. Therefore, the Company has adopted a policy whereby the premium paid for flow-through shares in excess of the market value of the shares without the flow-through features at the time of issue is initially recorded as a flow-through liability. Upon renouncement by the Company of the tax benefits associated with the related expenditures, a deferred tax liability is recognized and the flow-through liability is reversed, with any difference recorded as deferred tax expense. A portion of the deferred tax assets that were not recognized in previous years, due to the recording of a valuation allowance, will reduce the deferred tax liability and record a deferred tax recovery. |
| The change in accounting policy related to flow-through shares resulted in an increase in share capital and an increase in deficit of $1,083,067 as at the Transition Date, and a decrease in share capital and an increase in flow-through tax liability of $77,314 for the year ended 30 April 2011. |

15. | Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards (continued) |
| f) | Reclassification within Equity section |
| Under Canadian GAAP, “Contributed Surplus” was used to record the issuance of warrants, stock options and performance shares as well as shares to be issued and warrants to be issued. Upon adoption of IFRS, the balances in “Contributed Surplus” have been reclassified to “Stock option reserve”, “Warrants reserve” and "Performance Shares reserve". |
| In addition, the Company reclassified the balance of the “Accumulated other comprehensive income” that existed under Canadian GAAP into “Available-for-sale investments reserve”. |
| g) | Reconciliations of Canadian GAAP to IFRS |
| IFRS employs a conceptual framework that is similar to Canadian GAAP. However, significant differences exist in certain matters of recognition, measurement and disclosure. While adoption of IFRS has not changed the Company’s actual cash flows, it has resulted in changes to the Company’s reported financial position and results of operations. The following analysis represents the reconciliations from Canadian GAAP to IFRS for the respective periods noted: |
