Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

1.	NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
	Amarc Resources Ltd. (the "Company" or "Amarc") is incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia ("BC"), and its principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. Its principal mineral property interests are located in BC. The address of the Company's corporate office is 15th Floor, 1040 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada V6E 4H1.
	The Company is in the process of exploring its mineral property interests and has not yet determined whether its mineral property interests contain economically recoverable mineral reserves. The Company's continuing operations are entirely dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to continue the exploration and development of its mineral property interests and to obtain the permits necessary to mine, and on future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of its mineral property interests.
	These condensed consolidated interim financial statements (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
	The Company will need to seek additional financing to meet its working capital requirements. The Company has a reasonable expectation that additional funds will be available when necessary to meet ongoing exploration and development costs. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will continue to be able to obtain additional financial resources or will achieve profitability or positive cash flows. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate additional financing, the Company will be required to re-evaluate its planned expenditures until additional funds can be raised through financing activities. These factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that raises significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
	These Financial Statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Financial Statements are described below. These policies have been consistently applied for all years presented, unless otherwise stated.

(a)

Statement of compliance

These Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), and interpretations by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These Financial Statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") for complete financial statements for year-end reporting purposes. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2017. Results for the reporting period ended December 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of future results. The accounting policies and methods of computation applied by the Company in these Financial Statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its most recent annual financial statements which are filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR atwww.sedar.com.

Amarc Resources Ltd.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

	The Board of Directors of the Company authorized these Financial Statements for issuance on February 28, 2018.
(b)	Basis of presentation and consolidation
	These Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as available-for-sale which are stated at fair value. In addition, these Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
	These Financial Statements include the financial statements of the Company and its only subsidiary named 1130346 B.C. Ltd. (the “Subco”), incorporated under the laws of BC. The Subco is Amarc’s wholly-owned subsidiary and was incorporated for the purposes of entering into an option agreement (note 6(b)) and as of December 31, 2017 the Subco did not have any asset, liability, income or expense. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in full on consolidation.
	Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current year.
(c)	Significant accounting estimates and judgments
	The critical judgements and estimates applied in the preparation of these Financial Statements are consistent with those applied in the Company’s audited financial statements as at and for the year ended March 31, 2017.
(d)	Accounting standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards
	Accounting standards issued but not yet effective
	Effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018:

• IFRS 9, Financial Instruments

• IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019:

• IFRS 16, Leases

The Company has not early adopted these new standards or amendments to existing standards and does not expect the impact of these standards on the Company's financial statements to be material.

6.	EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION EXPENSES AND COST RECOVERIES
	During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, the Company’s mineral exploration and evaluation expenses were incurred on its IKE, JOY, PINE and DUKE projects.

(a)	IKE Project
	The IKE Project is located in south-central BC. In July 2017, the Company announced it had entered into a Mineral Property Farm-In Agreement with Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay”), pursuant to which Hudbay may acquire, through a staged investment process, up to a 60% ownership interest in the IKE Project. The Company records the amount of contributions received or receivable from Hudbay pursuant to the IKE Property Farm-In Agreement as cost recoveries in the Statement of Loss to the extent it incurs expenditures against such contributions.
	Relinquished Option Agreement
	During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded a gross amount of cost recovery of $414,300 and $2,932,597, respectively, representing contributions received pursuant to a definitive agreement with Thompson Creek Metals Company Inc. (“Thompson Creek”) dated February 2016, whereby the latter had an option to acquire, through a staged investment process within five years, a 30% ownership interest in the mineral claims and crown grants covering the IKE Project.

(Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

	In January 2017, Thompson Creek (having been taken over by Centerra Gold Inc.) relinquished its option and elected to exchange its 10% participating interest for a 1% Conversion Net Smelter Royalty from mine production, capped at a total of $5 million. As a result, the Company maintained a 100% interest in the IKE Project.
(b)	JOY Project
	The JOY Project, located in north-central BC, comprises the JOY and PINE properties, and certain adjacent claims (the “Staked Claims”) acquired directly by Amarc. In November 2016, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with a private company wholly owned by one of its directors (note 10(c)) to purchase 100% of the JOY property at the vendor’s direct acquisition costs of $335,299. In addition, Amarc concluded agreements with each of Gold Fields Toodoggone Exploration Corporation (“GFTEC”) and Cascadero Copper Corporation (“Cascadero”) in mid-2017 pursuant to which Amarc can purchase 100% of the PINE property. Subsequently, Hudbay and Amarc agreed to include both the PINE property and the Staked Claims into the JOY Project.
	In August 2017, the Company announced that it had entered into a Mineral Property Farm-In Agreement with Hudbay, pursuant to which Hudbay may acquire, through a staged investment process, up to a 60% ownership in the JOY Project. The Company records the amount of contributions received or receivable from Hudbay pursuant to the Farm-In Agreement as cost recoveries in the Statement of Loss to the extent it incurs expenditures against such contributions.
(c)	DUKE Project
	In November 2016, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with a privately company wholly owned by one of its directors (note 10(c)) to purchase a 100% interest in the DUKE property at the vendor’s direct acquisition costs of $168,996. The DUKE property is located in central BC.

2015-Loan Agreement
In September 2015, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “2015-Loan Agreement”) with its Director and Chairman, Robert Dickinson (the “Lender”) pursuant to which the Lender advanced to the Company a principal sum of $500,000 with a two-year term and at an interest rate of 7% per annum. Pursuant to the 2015-Loan Agreement, the Company issued 5,555,555 common share purchase warrants (note 9(c)) to the Lender with an expiry term of two years and exercise price of $0.09.

The 2015-Loan Agreement was fully repaid in September 2017.

2016-Loan Agreement
In November 2016, the Company and the Lender entered into another loan agreement (the “2016-Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which a previous loan agreement for a principal sum of $1,000,000 and with a due date of November 26, 2016 was extended for three years on customary conditions, and the principal sum was increased to $1,500,000 by way of an additional advance of $500,000 to fund mineral property acquisitions (note 6(b) and (c)). The 2016-Loan Agreement is subject to a fixed interest at 9% per annum. Pursuant to the 2016-Loan Agreement, the Company issued to the Lender a loan bonus comprising of 10,000,000 common share purchase warrants (note 9(c)) with a three-year term and an exercise price of $0.08 per share.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016

(Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)

	During the current period, $500,000 of the 2016-Loan Agreement was repaid to the Lender, leaving a balance outstanding as at December 31, 2017 of $1,000,000.
	These advances were measured as financial liabilities at their (cash) transaction values, with the unamortized balance of directly applicable costs, comprised of the fair values of the bonus warrants granted, representing a partially offsetting asset balance. Such costs are being expensed pro-rata over the term of the debt, with the effect on the balance sheet presentation being that the aggregate debt is accreted towards its face value.
9.	CAPITAL AND RESERVES

(a)	Authorized and outstanding share capital
	The Company's authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares (“Common Shares”) without par value and an unlimited number of preferred shares. All issued Common Shares are fully paid. No preferred shares have been issued.
	As at December 31, 2017, there were 166,969,560 Common Shares outstanding (March 31, 2017: 145,424,061).
(b)	Share issuance
	In September 2017, the Company announced a private placement financing, issuing 13,045,500 Common Shares at a price of $0.20 per Common Share for gross proceeds of $2,609,100, and incurred share issuance costs of $127,800 for net proceeds of $2,481,300.
	In October 2017, pursuant to a property option agreement (note 6(b)), the Company issued 1,944,444 Common Shares.
(c)	Share purchase warrants
	The following common share purchase warrants were outstanding at December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017:

	Exercise	December 31,	March 31,
	price	2017	2017
Issued pursuant to:
the 2015-Loan Agreement(i)	$0.09	–	1,555,555

Total		5,000,000	11,555,555

(i) In September 2015, 5,555,555 share-purchase warrants were issued pursuant to the 2015-Loan Agreement (note 8); the fair value of these warrants at issue was determined to be $322,143 at $0.058 per warrant, using the Black Scholes option pricing model and based on the following assumptions: risk-free rate of 0.51%; expected volatility of 130%; the underlying’s market price of $0.09, expiry term of 2 years; and dividend yield of nil. In March 2017, 4,000,000 of these warrants were exercised and in September 2017, the remainder of 1,555,555 warrants were exercised.
