PORTAL RESOURCES LTD.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the nine months ended March 31 2010 (Unaudited)

(stated in Canadian dollars)


1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Portal Resources Ltd. was incorporated on August 14, 2000 under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia.  


The Company is an exploration stage company whose business activity is the exploration of mineral rights located in Mexico, and the exploration of oil and gas in central Alberta, Canada. The Company has not yet determined if any of these rights contain economic mineral reserves, oil or gas reserves, and, accordingly, the amounts shown for deferred exploration costs represent costs incurred to date, less write-downs, and do not necessarily reflect present or future values.  The recovery of these amounts is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the exploration of the rights, and upon the commencement of future profitable production or, alternatively, upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis. To date, the Company has not earned significant revenues and has an accumulated operation deficit of $14,502,930.


Current economic conditions have limited the Company’s ability to access financing through equity markets and this has created significant uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to fund ongoing operations for the next operating period.


The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in the normal course of business.



2.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation


These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada (Canadian GAAP). These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements, do not include in all respects the annual disclosure requirements of generally accepted accounting principles, and should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual consolidated financial statements. The differences between those principles and the ones that would be applied under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) are disclosed in Note 14.


References to the Company are inclusive of the Canadian parent company, its wholly owned U.S. subsidiary, Portal Resources US Inc., and its formerly owned subsidiary Portal del Oro S.A.  All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.


The accounting policies followed by the Company are set out in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2009 and have been consistently followed in preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements, except with respect to the following new and revised accounting standards which the Company is required to adopt under Canadian GAAP for interim and annual financial statements relating to its fiscal year commencing July 1, 2009.


New accounting policies


CICA Handbook Section 3862 “Financial Instruments – Disclosure” requires an entity to classify fair value measurements using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of inputs used in making the measurements. The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objecting evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. CICA Handbook Section 3862 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, (Continued)


New accounting policies, (Continued)


a)

Level 1 – Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


b)

Level 2 – Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or indirectly such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions.


c)

Level 3 – Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable market data.


The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, short term investments, GST receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to CICA Handbook 3862, fair value of assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis include cash and short term investments determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all the other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.


Accounting Policies Not Yet Adopted


Convergence to international Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)


In February 2008, the CICA announced that Canadian GAAP for publicly accountable enterprises will be replaced by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Companies will be required to provide IFRS comparative information for the previous fiscal year. The transition date of July 1, 2011 will require the restatement for comparative purposes, amounts reported by the Company for the year ended June 30, 2011, for which the current and comparative information will be prepared under IFRS.


The Company has commenced its IFRS conversion project in 2008. The Company’s IFRS project consists of three phases – scoping, evaluation and design, and implementation and review. The Company has commenced the scoping phase of the project, which consists of project initiation and awareness, identification of high-level differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS and project planning and resourcing. The Company has completed a high level scoping exercise and has prepared a preliminary comparison of financial statement areas that will be impacted by the conversion.


A detailed assessment of the impact of adopting IFRS on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, information technology and data systems, internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures, and the various covenants and capital requirements and business activities has not been completed. The impact on such elements will depend on the particular circumstances prevailing at the adoption date and the IFRS accounting policy choices made by the Company. The Company has not completed its quantification of the effects of adopting IFRS. The financial performance and financial position as disclosed in our Canadian GAAP financial statements may be significantly different when presented in accordance with IFRS.


Business combinations


In January 2009, the CICA issued the new handbook Section 1582, “Business Combinations” effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Earlier adoption of Section 1582 is permitted. This pronouncement further aligns Canadian GAAP with US GAAP and IFRS and changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas. It establishes principles and requirements governing how an acquiring company recognizes and measures in its financial statements identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquisition, and goodwill acquired. The section also establishes disclosure requirements that will enable users of the acquiring company’s financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of its

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, (Continued)


business combinations. Although the Company is considering the impact of adopting this pronouncement on the consolidated financial statements, it will be limited to any future acquisitions beginning in fiscal 2012.


Consolidated financial statement and non-controlling interests


In January 2009, the CICA issued the new handbook Section 1601, “Consolidated Financial Statements”, and Section1602, “Non-controlling Interests”, effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Earlier adoption of these recommendations is permitted. These pronouncements further align Canadian GAAP with US GAAP and IFRS. Sections 1601 and 1602 change the accounting and reporting for ownership interest in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent. Non-controlling interests are to be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity but separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest is to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. In addition, these pronouncements establish standards for a change in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. They also establish reporting requirements for providing sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. The Company is currently considering the impact of adopting these pronouncements on its consolidated financial statements in fiscal 2012 in connection with the conversion to IFRS.



3.

SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS


Short term investments consists of highly liquid investments, including guaranteed investment certificates with major financial institutions, having a maturity of 12 months or less at acquisition and that are readily convertible to contracted amounts of cash.


4.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES


On May 29, 2009 Portal Resources US Inc. acquired 150,000 shares of Pengram Corporation (“Pengram”) in return for assigning all of its interest in an option agreement.  At March 31, 2010, the fair value of the Pengram shares was $15,237 (June 30, 2009 - $ 34,875). During the year the Company recorded an unrealized loss of $19,638 (June 30, 2009 - $6,229).

UNPROVEN MINERAL RIGHTS


Argentina


As at May 14, 2009, the Company held a subsidiary and mineral properties in Argentina. During the most recent completed fiscal year the Company after reviewing work done on the properties, concluded that the potential did not justify further work and renounced the mining rights held under the projects. As such the project expenditures were written off and subsequently Portal’s Argentinean subsidiary was sold.


United States


On September 2, 2008, the Company announced that it had entered into an option agreement under which it has the right to acquire, from Claremont Nevada Mines, Scoonover Exploration and JR Exploration, three properties located in the Walker Lane Belt and Battle Mountain/Eureka Trend in Nevada, USA.


On May 29, 2009, the Company closed an Assignment Agreement with Pengram Corporation (“Pengram”) to transfer all the rights on the Nevada claims, in exchange for 150,000 shares of Pengram’s common stock. The Company has no further commitments on the Nevada properties (See Note 4 – Marketable Securities).



7.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES


The Company’s oil and gas interests are all located in Central Alberta, Canada.


Oil and Gas Joint Ventures


Bigwave Joint Venture


On November 1, 2008 the Company signed a Joint Venture Agreement to participate for a 15% interest in the exploration, exploitation and production of petroleum and natural gas relating to lands located in central Alberta. In December of 2008 the Agreement was modified to allow the Company to participate up to a 20% interest. During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company increased its interest in the Joint Venture to 22%.


Within the area of interest, the Company has agreed to pay a 5.5% Gross Over Riding Royalty (GORR) on all products produced from certain geological formations.


On January 5, 2009 the Company signed an agreement, “Participation Agreement”, with certain other partners in the Bigwave Joint Venture. Portal agreed to pay 100% of Portal’s cost per Drill Spacing Unit to earn a 100% interest until pay-out and then, after pay-out, to drop to a 70% interest per Drill Spacing Unit.

Stock-based Compensation


The Company has a stock option plan as described in the most recent annual financial statements of the Company.  The maximum aggregate number of common shares reserved and authorized to be issued pursuant to options granted under the Stock Option Plan is 4,447,730 common shares.  


The exercise price for options granted under the Stock Option Plan is determined by the Board upon grant provided the price is not less than the closing trading price on the day immediately preceding the date of grant, less any discounts permitted by the TSX Venture Exchange or such other stock exchanges on which the common shares are listed.  Options granted under the Stock Option Plan are subject to a minimum one year vesting schedule whereby 25% of each option will vest on each of the three month anniversaries of the date of grant, up to and including the end of the first year after such grant, or such other more restrictive vesting schedule as the administrator of the Stock Option Plan may determine.  Options are non-assignable and are exercisable for a period of up to five years from the date the option is granted, subject to earlier termination after certain events such as the optionee’s cessation of service to the Company or death.

Stock-based Compensation, (Continued)


The Company accounts for its option grants in accordance with the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recognized $95,439 (2009 - $17,789) in stock-based compensation for employees, directors and consultants.


The fair value of the options has been calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, based on the following assumptions:

Option prices models require the input of highly subjective assumptions regarding the expected volatility and expected life. Changes in assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide the reliable measure of the fair value of the company’s stock options at the date of grant.

11.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, short-term investments, amounts receivable, accounts payables and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values.


The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including currency risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and interest risk.


(a)

Currency risk


The Company may have property interests in foreign jurisdictions which could make it subject to foreign currency fluctuations and inflationary pressures which may adversely affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company is affected by changes in exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar and foreign functional currencies. The Company does not invest in foreign currency contracts to mitigate the risks.


(b)

Credit risk


The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held in a Canadian financial institution. The Company does not have any asset-backed commercial paper in its cash and cash equivalents or short-term investments. The Company’s amount receivable consists primarily of recovered rent and office expense, and tax due from the federal government of Canada.


(c)

Liquidity risk


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 through the management of its capital structure. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within the current operating period.


(d)

Interest rate risk


Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The risk that the Company will realize a loss as a result of a decline in the fair value of the cash and cash equivalents is limited because they are generally held to maturity. A 1% change in the interest rate, with other variables unchanged, would affect the Company by an annualized amount of interest equal to approximately $1,000.

12.

MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL RISK


The Company manages its cash and cash equivalents, common shares and stock options as capital (see Note 8). The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the development of its mineral and oil and gas properties and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the cost of capital at an acceptable risk.


The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, issue new debt, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents.


In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions.


In order to maximize ongoing development efforts, the Company does not pay out dividends. The Company’s investment policy is to invest its short-term excess cash in highly liquid short-term interest-bearing investments with maturities 90 days or less from the original date of acquisition, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations.


The Company expects its current capital resources will be sufficient to carry its exploration plans and operations through its current operating period.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (GAAP)


Under Canadian GAAP for junior mining exploration companies, mineral exploration expenditures can be deferred on prospective mineral rights until such time as it is determined that further exploration work is not warranted, at which time the mineral right costs are written-off. Under U.S. GAAP, all exploration expenditures are expensed until an independent feasibility study has determined that the mineral rights are capable of economic commercial production. For oil and gas companies, under the successful efforts methodology, there are no differences under Canadian and U.S. GAAP. The Company has capitalized the costs of drilling exploratory wells pending determination of whether the well has found proven reserves. As no determination has yet been made, the costs remain capitalized for Canadian GAAP which is the identical treatment U.S. GAAP. The following items (a) to (g) provide a summary of the impact to these financial statements that would result from the application of U.S. accounting principles to deferred mineral rights.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On April 22, 2010 the Company announced that it has agreed to purchase a 6.6% “after pay-out” working interest (the “Interest)  in the Company’s Bigwave Oil and Gas Joint Venture (the “Joint Venture”) for a total of $5,000 in cash and 500,000 common shares in the capital of the Company. The Participation Agreement was previously announced by the Company on April 14, 2009.

On the closing of the purchase of the interest, the Participation Agreement will be terminated and Portal will hold a 22% working interest in the Joint Venture. The Company’s obligation to complete the purchase of the Interest is subject to the satisfaction of certain normal conditions precedent, including the completion of due diligence and receipts of any required approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.


On May 13, 2010 the Company announced it has decided not to proceed with a $1 million non-brokered private placement announced on January 26, 2010.
