Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
For the three and six months ended January 31, 2015 and 2014 |
(Unaudited – Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated) |
1. | NATURE ANDCONTINUANCE OFOPERATIONS |
Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd. ("Quartz Mountain") is a Canadian public company incorporated in British Columbia on August 3, 1982. The Company's corporate office is located at 1040 West Georgia Street, 15th Floor, Vancouver, British Columbia (“BC”), Canada. The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements (the "Financial Statements") of the Company as at and for the three and six months ended January 31, 2015 include the financial statements of Quartz Mountain Resources Ltd. and those of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wavecrest Resources Inc. (together referred to as the "Company"). Quartz Mountain is the ultimate parent entity of the Company.
The Company is in the process of acquiring and exploring mineral property interests (note 5). 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 complete the exploration and development of these projects, obtaining the necessary permits to mine, the future profitable production of any mine and the proceeds from the disposition of the mineral property interest.
These Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. At January 31, 2015, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.85 million, and a working capital deficit of $2.3 million. The Company had current liabilities of $3.2 million, of which $3.1 million is payable to Hunter Dickinson Services Inc. ("HDSI"), a related party (note 8(b)). The Company has received confirmation from HDSI that, HDSI will not demand, prior to November 1, 2015, payment of amounts outstanding as of the reporting date and will continue to provide services to the Company.
During the current period, the Company entered into an agreement with the holder of its convertible debenture to restructure the payment terms of the debenture (note 7).
Management believes that it is able to maintain its mineral rights in good standing for the next 12 month period. Additional debt or equity financing, or joint ventures will be required to fund exploration or development programs. 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 obtain additional financial resources and/or 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 material uncertainties cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
These Financial Statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. | SIGNIFICANTACCOUNTINGPOLICIES |
(a) | Statement of compliance |
These Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and its interpretations. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures as required by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") for annual financial statements. Unless stated otherwise, 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 consolidated financial statements which are filed on the Company's profile on SEDAR atwww.sedar.com. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements as at and for the year ended July 31, 2014. Results for the period ended January 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of future results. | |
Issuance of these Financial Statements was authorized by a committee of the Board of Directors on March 25, 2015. | |
(b) | Basis of presentation |
These Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments measured at fair value. In addition, these Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. | |
(c) | Significant accounting estimates and judgments |
The preparation of these Financial Statements in conformity with IAS 34 requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from such estimates. | |
In preparing these Financial Statements, significant judgements made by management in applying the Company's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended July 31, 2014. | |
(d) | Accounting standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards |
Effective August 1, 2014, the Company adopted new and revised IFRS that were issued by the IASB. The application of these new and revised IFRS has not had any material impact on the amounts reported for the current and prior periods but may affect the accounting for future transactions or arrangements. |

The weighted average contractual remaining life of the share purchase options outstanding and exercisable at January 31, 2015 was 1.9 years (July 31, 2014 – 1.5 years).
7. | LONGTERMDEBT |
Pursuant to the purchase of the Gnat Pass Property (note 5(a)) in fiscal 2013, the Company issued an unsecured $650,000 convertible debenture (the "Debenture") to a vendor, Bearclaw Capital Corp. (“Bearclaw”), as part of the purchase price. In July 2013, Quartz Mountain and the holder of the Debenture entered into an agreement to amend the Debenture, whereby among other things, a principal payment of $50,000 toward the Debenture was made, reducing the outstanding balance to $600,000. The interest rate applicable on the new balance of $600,000 and for the remaining term of the Debenture was increased to 10% per annum from 8% per annum, and the maturity date was extended to October 31, 2014 from October 31, 2013. Interest on the Debenture was payable quarterly in arrears and the principal sum of Debenture, along with any unpaid interest, is convertible at the option of the debenture holder into the Company's common shares at $0.15 per share (previously $0.40 per share) on or before maturity of the Debenture on October 31, 2014. | |
Effective October 1, 2014, the Company and Bearclaw amended the terms of the Debenture pursuant to which, on October 8, 2014, the Company made a payment of $50,000 to Bearclaw against the principal sum of the Debenture and the remaining balance of $550,000 (the “Principal Sum”) is now payable in equal annual installments of $50,000, commencing on January 31, 2015 (completed) and thereafter on or before January 31 of each subsequent year until the Principal Sum is fully repaid. Effective October 1, 2014, the Principal Sum outstanding will bear interest at 7.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. | |
Upon a completion by the Company of an equity financing (the “New Financing”) for a minimum amount of $1,000,000, at least 50% of any outstanding balance of the Principal Sum along with any interest accrued thereon will be automatically converted (the “Automatic Conversion”) into the Company’s common shares. Bearclaw may elect to convert, concurrent to the Automatic Conversion, any portion of the remaining 50% of outstanding balance of the Principal Sum and accrued interest thereon (the “Optional Conversion”). For the purposes of Automatic Conversion and Optional Conversion of any principal sum, subject to the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange the conversion price will be determined as greater of (i) the volume-weighted average trading price (VWAP) of Common Shares of the Company on the Exchange for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the fifth trading day preceding the date of such conversion and (ii) the price at which the Company issues common shares pursuant to the New Financing. For the purposes of Automatic Conversion and Optional Conversion of any accrued interest, the conversion price will be the market price of the Company’s common shares on the date of conversion. Except pursuant to the Automatic Conversion and Optional Conversion provisions, Bearclaw does not have an option to convert the Debenture into the Company’s common shares. |
