Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended November, 2023 and 2022

(Unaudited)

(Expressed in Thousands of US dollars, except for share and per share amounts) 

1.Nature of operations

 

TRX Gold Corporation (“TRX Gold” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Province of Alberta on July 5, 1990 under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta). The Company’s principal business activity is the exploration, development and production of mineral property interests in the United Republic of Tanzania (“Tanzania”).

 

The Company’s registered office is 400 3rd Avenue SW, Suite 3700, Calgary, Alberta, T2P 4H2, Canada and the Company’s principal place of business is 277 Lakeshore Road E, Suite 403, Oakville, Ontario, L6J 6J3, Canada.

 

The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada (TSX: TNX) and NYSE American in the United States of America (NYSE American: TRX).

 

The Company is primarily focused on development and mining operations, exploring, and evaluating its mineral properties. The business of exploring and mining for minerals involves a high degree of risk. The underlying value of the mineral properties is dependent upon the existence and economic recovery of mineral resources and reserves, the ability to raise long-term financing to complete the development of the properties, government policies and regulations, and upon future profitable production or, alternatively, upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interest on an advantageous basis; all of which are uncertain.

 

 

2.Basis of preparation

 

 

a)Statement of compliance

 

The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023.

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on January 11, 2024.

 

b)Basis of presentation and measurement

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value as disclosed in Note 17. All amounts in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars with all amounts rounded to the nearest thousand, except for share and per share data, or as otherwise noted. Reference herein of $ or USD is to U.S. dollars and C$ or CAD is to Canadian dollars.

 

 

3.Significant accounting policies, judgements and estimates

 

The accounting policies, judgements and estimates applied in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those set out in Notes 3 and 4 of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2023, except as described below:

Disclosure of Accounting Policies (Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2)

 

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, and IFRS Practice Statement 2, Making Materiality Judgements, requiring that an entity discloses its material accounting policies, instead of its significant accounting policies. Accounting policy information is material if, when considered together with other information included in an entity’s financial statements, it can reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements. Accounting policy information may be material because of the nature of the related transactions, other events or conditions, even if the amounts are immaterial. Accounting policy information that relates to immaterial transactions, events or conditions is immaterial and need not be disclosed. The IASB has also developed guidance and examples to explain and demonstrate the application of the ‘four-step materiality process’ described in IFRS Practice Statement 2.

 

The amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 were adopted on September 1, 2023 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Definition of Accounting Estimates (Amendments to IAS 8)

 

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 8, Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors. The amendments replace the definition of a change in accounting estimates with a definition of accounting estimates. Under the new definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty”. Entities develop accounting estimates if accounting policies require items in financial statements to be measured in a way that involves measurement uncertainty. The amendments clarify that a change in accounting estimate that results from new information or new developments is not the correction of an error and effects of a change in an input or a measurement technique used to develop an accounting estimate are changes in accounting estimates if they do not result from the correction of prior period errors.

 

The amendments to IAS 8 were adopted on September 1, 2023 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction (Amendments to IAS 12)

 

In May 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes. The amendments to IAS 12 narrow the scope of the initial recognition exemption so that it no longer applies to transactions which give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. The Company is to recognize a deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability for temporary differences arising on initial recognition for certain transactions, including leases and reclamation provisions.

 

The amendments to IAS 12 were adopted on September 1, 2023 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Derivative warrant liabilities  $3,345   $3,544 
Total derivative financial instrument liabilities  $3,345   $3,544 

 

a)Derivative warrant liabilities

 

     
     Amount  
As at August 31, 2023  $3,544 
Change in fair value   (199)
As at November 30, 2023  $3,345 

 

Derivative warrant liabilities of $3.3 million will only be settled by issuing equity of the Company. For the three months ended November 30, 2023, fair value changes amounted to a gain of $0.2 million (2022 – gain of $3.4 million).

 

Fair values of derivative warrant liabilities were calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions:

 

          
     November 30, 2023      August 31, 2023  
Share price  $0.40   $0.39 
Risk-free interest rate   4.42% - 4.63%    4.43% - 4.66% 
Dividend yield   0%   0%
Expected volatility   51%   52%
Remaining term (in years)   2.23.2    2.53.4 

 

The fair value is classified as level 3 as expected volatilities is determined using adjusted historical volatilities and were therefore not an observable input.

Sensitivity analysis

 

If expected volatility, the significant unobservable input, had been higher or lower by 10% and all other variables were held constant, net loss and net assets for the three months ended November 30, 2023 would increase or decrease by:

 

              
     November 30, 2023  
10% change in expected volatilities    Increase      Decrease  
(Loss) income  $(814)  $786 

 

 

 

10.Income tax

 

Income tax expense is recognized based on management’s estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. The maximum amount of tax losses that a business can utilize in Tanzania is 70% of its taxable profit for the current year. The remaining 30% of taxable profit is subject to a statutory tax rate of 30%. As a result, Buckreef’s current income tax is calculated at an effective tax rate of 9% until Buckreef’s tax loss carryforwards are fully utilized. Tax losses in Tanzania can only be utilized by the entity to which the tax losses relate to.

 

The carrying value of Buckreef’s Mineral Property, Plant and Equipment is higher than their tax written down values due to historical mining incentives in Tanzania and accelerated depreciation for tax purposes. The taxable temporary difference between the carrying value of Mineral Property, Plant and Equipment and its tax basis in excess of available tax loss carryforwards resulted in a deferred tax liability.

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2023, the Company recorded income tax expense of $1.2 million, comprised of current income tax expense of $0.3 million and deferred income tax expense of $0.9 million (2022 – $1.5 million income tax expense comprised of current income tax expense of $0.4 million and deferred income tax expense of $1.1 million).

 

 

11.(Loss) earnings per share

 

          
     Three months ended November 30,  
     2023      2022  
Net (loss) income attributable to shareholders  $(966)  $3,512 
Weighted average number of common shares for basic EPS(1)   285,283,429    276,477,860 
Effect of dilutive stock options, warrants, RSUs and share awards         1,221,178 
Weighted average number of common shares for diluted EPS(1)   285,283,429    277,699,038 

(1)The weighted average number of common shares for basic and diluted EPS include 6.3 million gross number of vested, but unissued, common shares relating to common share awards.

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2023, the weighted average number of common shares for diluted EPS excluded 15.4 million stock options, 2.8 million RSUs, 4.6 million common share awards and 39.0 million warrants that were anti-dilutive for the period (2022: 7.4 million stock options and 42.0 million warrants).

17.Financial instruments

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The following table sets out the classification of the Company’s financial instruments as at November 30, 2023 and August 31, 2023:

 

          
     November 30, 2023      August 31, 2023  
Financial Assets          
Measured at amortized cost          
Amounts receivable  $2,062   $3,140 
Measured at fair value through profit or loss          
Cash   8,327    7,629 
           
Financial Liabilities          
Measured at amortized cost          
Amounts payables and accrued liabilities   12,972    11,571 
Measured at fair value through profit or loss          
Derivative financial instrument liabilities   3,345    3,544 

 

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. These estimates are subject to and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

 

The Company classifies its financial instruments carried at fair value according to a three-level hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the fair value measurements. The three levels of fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs, are as follows:

·Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
·Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly; and
·Level 3 – Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data.

 

As at November 30, 2023 and August 31, 2023, cash was classified as Level 1 and derivative financial instruments (Note 9) were classified as Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy.
