Nature of Business Acquired


On July 28, 2016, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Goldrock Mines Corp. (“Goldrock”) by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Acquisition”).


Goldrock holds a 100% interest in the Lindero Project located in Salta Province, Argentina (the “Lindero Project”). The Lindero Project is an open pit, heap leach gold project, all as more particularly described in the technical report prepared for the Lindero Project in compliance with National Instrument 43-101 – “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects” entitled “Technical Report Update on the Lindero Heap Leach Project Salta Province, Argentina” dated effective January 2, 2016 which was prepared for Goldrock and which is available under Goldrock’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

On the closing of the Acquisition, the Company acquired 100% of Goldrock’s issued and outstanding common shares, being 109,460,918 common shares, in exchange for 14,569,045 common shares of the Company (the “Fortuna Shares”) (representing an exchange ratio of 0.1331 Fortuna Shares for each common share of Goldrock). The Fortuna Shares issued were valued at $11.29 per Fortuna Share based on the closing price for the Fortuna Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the date of the Acquisition, representing an aggregate purchase price of $164,484,518.05.


Outstanding warrants to purchase Goldrock common shares were converted into warrants to acquire Fortuna Shares, adjusted in accordance with the same exchange ratio. As a result, 1,514,677 Fortuna Shares were made issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants to purchase Fortuna Shares.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Shareholders of

Goldrock Mines Corp.



We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Goldrock Mines Corp., which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for the years then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.


Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements


Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.


Auditors’ Responsibility


Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.


An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.


We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.


[fortuna_businessacquisiti003.jpg]


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Opinion


In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Goldrock Mines Corp. as at December 31, 2015 and 2014 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

GOLDROCK MINES CORP.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CANADIAN FUNDS

DECEMBER 31, 2015



1.

NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS



Goldrock Mines Corp. (the "Company") is a Canadian company incorporated in British Columbia.  The Company is primarily engaged in the development of exploration and evaluation assets located primarily in Argentina.  The Company’s registered and records office is at Suite 910, 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 2V6.  The Company’s head office is at Suite 2300, 1177 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 2K3.


The Company continued further development of its Lindero gold heap leach project in the current period. The ability of the Company to realize the costs it has incurred to date on its mineral property interests is dependent upon the Company being able to finance its development expenditures and to resolve any environmental, regulatory or other constraints which may hinder the successful development of the mineral property interest. To date, the Company has not earned revenues and is considered to be in the development stage.


These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue on a going-concern basis. The Company has incurred losses since inception and the ability of the Company to continue as a going-concern depends upon its ability to develop profitable operations and to continue to raise adequate financing. Management is actively targeting sources of additional financing through alliances with financial, exploration and mining entities, or through other business and financial transactions which would assure continuation of the Company’s operations and exploration programs. In order for the Company to meet its liabilities as they come due and to continue its operations, the Company is solely dependent upon its ability to generate such financing.  


As at December 31, 2015, the Company has working capital of $3,486,484.  Management believes that the Company has sufficient working capital to maintain its operations and its activities for the next fiscal year.


These consolidated financial statements were authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company on March 3, 2016.



2.

BASIS OF PREPARATION


These consolidated financial statements, including comparatives have been prepared 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”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.


The accounting policies set out in Note 3 have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.


The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are, but are not limited to, the following:


Capitalization of development costs


The application of the Company’s accounting policy for development costs requires judgment in determining the timing at which to begin capitalizing development costs and whether future economic benefits, which are based on assumptions about future events and circumstances, may be realized. See Note 7 for further discussion.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


GOLDROCK MINES CORP.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont’d…)



Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the end of the reporting period, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:


Carrying value and recoverability of development assets


The carrying amount of the Company’s development asset does not necessarily represent present or future values, and the Company’s development asset has been accounted for under the assumption that the carrying amount will be recoverable. Recoverability is dependent on various factors, including the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development and upon future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition of the mineral properties themselves. Additionally, there are numerous geological, economic, environmental and regulatory factors and uncertainties that could impact management’s assessment as to the overall viability of its properties or to the ability to generate future cash flows necessary to cover or exceed the carrying value of the Company’s development asset.


Commencement of commercial production


Costs associated with the commissioning of new assets, in the pre-commercial period before they are operating in the way intended by management, are capitalized, net of any pre-production revenues. Commercial production is deemed to have occurred when management determines that, amongst other items, the completion of operational commissioning of major mine components has been reached, operating results are being achieved consistently for a period of time, and there are indicators that these operating results will continue, all of which involve management judgments.


Functional currencies


The functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. That of the Company and its subsidiaries was determined by conducting an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.


To the extent that any of management’s assumptions change, there could be a significant impact on the Company’s future financial position, operating results and cash flows.    


Fair value of stock options and warrants


Determining the fair value of warrants and stock options requires judgments related to the choice of a pricing model, the estimation of stock price volatility, the expected forfeiture rate and the expected term of the underlying instruments. Any changes in the estimates or inputs utilized to determine fair value could have a significant impact on the Company’s future operating results or on other components of shareholders’ equity.


Income taxes


The estimation of income taxes includes evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets based on an assessment of the Company’s ability to utilize the underlying future tax deductions against future taxable income prior to expiry of those deductions. Management assesses whether it is probable that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, which in turn is dependent upon the successful discovery, extraction, development and commercialization of mineral reserves. To the extent that management’s assessment of the Company’s ability to utilize future tax deductions changes, the Company would be required to recognize more or fewer deferred tax assets, and deferred income tax provisions or recoveries could be affected.

BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont’d…)



Decommissioning costs


Upon retirement of the Company’s development asset, decommissioning costs will be incurred by the Company. Estimates of these costs are subject to uncertainty associated with the method, timing and extent of future decommissioning activities. The liability, the related asset and the expense are impacted by estimates with respect to the costs and timing of decommissioning. See Note 10 for further details.


Basis of consolidation


These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company (Note 12). Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.


Foreign exchange


The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates and has been determined for each entity within the Company. The functional currency for the entities within the Company is the Canadian dollar (the Company), the Argentine peso (Mansfield S.A.) and the United States dollar [Mansfield (Bermuda) Ltd. and Argex Mining (Barbados) Inc.]. The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.


Transactions in currencies other than the entities’ functional currency are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, the monetary assets and liabilities of the entity that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange at the consolidated statements of financial position date while non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates.  Revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rates approximating those in effect on the date of the transactions.  Exchange gains and losses arising on translation are included in the profit or loss.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Financial instruments


Financial assets


The Company classifies its financial assets into one of the following categories, depending upon the purpose for which the asset was acquired. The Company's accounting policy for each category is as follows:


Fair value through profit or loss - This category comprises derivatives, or assets acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing them in the near term. They are carried in the consolidated statements of financial position at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.   


Loans and receivables - These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are carried at cost less any provision for impairment. Individually significant receivables are considered for impairment when they are past due or when other objective evidence is received that a specific counterparty will default.


Held-to-maturity investments - These assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company's management has the intention and ability to hold to maturity. These assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired, determined by reference to external credit ratings and other relevant indicators, the financial asset is measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows. Any changes to the carrying amount of the investment, including impairment losses, are recognized in profit or loss.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d…)



Available-for-sale - Non-derivative financial assets not included in the above categories are classified as available-for-sale. They are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized directly in equity. Where a decline in the fair value of an available-for-sale financial asset constitutes objective evidence of impairment, the amount of the loss is removed from equity and recognized in profit or loss.


All financial assets except for those at fair value through profit or loss are subject to review for impairment at least at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied for each category of financial assets, which are described above.


Financial liabilities


The Company classifies its financial liabilities into one of two categories, depending upon the purpose for which the liability was acquired. The Company's accounting policy for each category is as follows:


Fair value through profit or loss - This category comprises derivatives, or liabilities acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing them in the near term. They are carried in the consolidated statements of financial position at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss.


Other financial liabilities: This category includes amounts due to related parties and accounts payables and accrued liabilities which are recognized at amortized cost.


The Company has classified its cash and cash equivalents as fair value through profit and loss. The Company’s receivables are classified as loans and receivables. The Company’s accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related parties are classified as other financial liabilities.


Exploration and evaluation assets


Costs related to pre-exploration are expensed as incurred while costs related to the acquisition and exploration of exploration and evaluation assets are capitalized by property until the commencement of commercial production.  If commercially profitable ore reserves are developed, capitalized costs of the related property are reclassified as mining assets and amortized using the unit of production method. If, after management review, it is determined that capitalized acquisition and exploration costs are not recoverable over the estimated economic life of the property, or the property is abandoned, or management deems there to be an impairment in value, the property is written down to its net realizable value.


Any option payments received by the Company from third parties or tax credits refunded to the Company are credited to the capitalized cost of the exploration and evaluation assets. If payments received exceed the capitalized cost of the exploration and evaluation assets, the excess is recognized as income in the year received. The amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets do not necessarily represent present or future values. Their recoverability is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development, and future profitable production or proceeds from the disposition thereof.


Cash and cash equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash on deposit and highly liquid short-term interest bearing variable rate investments which are readily convertible into a known amount of cash.


Development asset


When technological feasibility and economic viability of a property has been determined, and the decision to proceed with development has been approved, the expenditures related to development and construction are capitalized as construction-in-progress and, in addition, any pre-commercial production is also capitalized, all of which is classified as a component of property, plant and equipment.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d…)



During the development of a mine, prior to the commencement of commercial production, costs incurred to remove overburden and other mine waste materials in order to access the resource body (“stripping costs”) are classified as a component of property, plant and equipment, and are capitalized to the related property and depleted over the productive life of the mine using the unit-of-production method. During the production phase of a mine, stripping costs are accounted for as variable production costs and included in the cost of inventory produced during the period except for stripping costs incurred to provide access to reserves that will be produced in future periods and would not otherwise have been accessible, which are capitalized to the cost of mineral property interests and depleted on a unit-of-production method over the reserves that directly benefit from the stripping activity.


Impairment


At the end of each reporting period, the Company’s assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets may be impaired. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment, if any. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and the impairment loss is recognized in the profit or loss for the period. For an asset that does not generate largely independent cash inflows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash generating unit to which the asset belongs.


Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset (or cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but to an amount that does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset (or cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss.


Provision for environmental rehabilitation


The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual, constructive or legal obligations associated with the retirement of exploration and evaluation assets and property, plant and equipment, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. The net present value of future rehabilitation cost estimates arising from the decommissioning of plant and other site preparation work is capitalized to the related assets along with a corresponding increase in the rehabilitation provision in the period incurred. Discount rates using a pre-tax rate that reflects the time value of money are used to calculate the net present value. The rehabilitation asset is depreciated on the same basis as the related assets.


The Company’s estimates of reclamation 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 recorded directly to the related assets with a corresponding entry to the rehabilitation 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 or loss for the period.


Equipment


Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of a replaced asset is derecognized when replaced. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d…)



The major categories of equipment are amortized as follows:


Vehicles - 30% declining balance basis

Office furnishings and equipment - 20% declining balance basis

Equipment - 30% declining balance basis


The Company allocates the amount initially recognized in respect of an item of equipment to its significant parts and amortizes separately each such part. Residual values, method of amortization and useful lives are reviewed annually and adjusted if appropriate.


Gains and losses on disposals of equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount of the asset and are included in profit or loss.


Loss per share


The Company presents basic loss per share for its common shares, calculated by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share does not adjust the loss attributable to common shareholders or the weighted average number of common shares outstanding when the effect is anti-dilutive.


Stock-based compensation


The Company grants stock options to acquire common shares of the Company to directors, officers, employees and consultants. An individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes, or provides services similar to those performed by an employee.


The fair value of stock options is measured on the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and is recognized over the vesting period.  Consideration paid for the shares on the exercise of stock options is credited to capital stock.  


In situations where equity instruments are issued to non-employees and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot be specifically identified, they are measured at fair value of the share-based payment. Otherwise, share-based payments are measured at the fair value of goods or services received.


Deferred financing costs


Expenditures directly related to share issuances are recorded as a deferred financing cost until such time as the shares are issued. When shares are issued, the deferred financing cost is recognized as a reduction of the net proceeds from the share issuance. If no shares are issued, these deferred financing costs are recognized in profit or loss.


Income taxes


Income tax on the profit or loss for the periods presented comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable for previous years.


Deferred tax is recorded by providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities which affect neither accounting nor taxable loss as well as differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the consolidated statements of financial position date.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d…)



A deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilized.


Additional income taxes that arise from the distribution of dividends are recognized at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividend. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.


Adoption of New Standards and Interpretations, and Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Effective January 1, 2015, the following standard was adopted but has had no material impact on the financial statements:


·

IFRS 7: Amended to require additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 and IFRS 9, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015.


Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The following have not yet been adopted by the Company and are being evaluated to determine their impact.


·

IFRS 9: New standard that replaced IAS 39 for classification and measurement, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018.

Lindero-Arizaro Property, Argentina


The Company has a 100% interest in the Lindero-Arizaro project located in Salta Province, Argentina. The project is not subject to any net smelter return (NSR) royalties.


On December 31, 2014, as a result of the Company’s review of availability of financings for mining projects and having received all relevant permits, the project was considered to be technically feasible and commercially viable to extract the Lindero project’s mineral reserves and accordingly was considered to be in the development stage. The Company has capitalized directly attributable development expenditures that give rise to future economic benefits as of December 31, 2014.

The undiscounted decommissioning liability as at December 31, 2015 is approximately $496,916 (December 31, 2014 - $496,916). The liability was determined using an inflation rate of 2% (December 31, 2014 - 2%) and an estimated life of mine of 10 years (December 31, 2014 – 10 years).  A discount rate of 10% was used (December 31, 2014 – 10%). There was no change in the liability amount as no activity at the site was undertaken during the year ended December 31, 2015.

Treasury stock:  recorded at cost.


In March 2015, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement by issuing 12,578,616 common shares to Fund JV Limited (“Orion”) at $0.50 per common share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $6,289,308 (US$5,000,000). In connection with the private placement, the Company paid a finder’s fee of $251,572 (US$200,000).

In October 2014, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $5.0 million through the sale of 11,111,111 common shares to Waterton Precious Metals Fund II Cayman, LP at $0.45 per common share.

Stock options


In July 2015, the Board adopted a 10% fixed stock option plan (the “New Stock Option Plan”) to replace the Company’s 20% fixed stock option plan (the “Existing Plan”) which was originally adopted by the Company in 2002. Under the New Stock Option Plan, the Company may grant options for up to 10,258,491 common shares to directors, employees, consultants and advisors at exercise prices to be determined by the market value on the date of grant.  The expiry date of an option shall be no later than the tenth anniversary of the grant date. Vesting of options is made at the discretion of the Board of Directors at the time the options are granted with the exception of options granted in relation to investor relations.  Options granted to consultants engaged in investor relations activities must vest no earlier than 25% upon the grant date and a further 25% after each of the following three- month periods.  Stock options to acquire an aggregate of 6,130,000 common shares in the capital of Goldrock granted and outstanding under the Existing Plan will be grandfathered under the New Plan.  The New Stock Option Plan was approved by the TSX Venture Exchange on September 10, 2015.

Restricted share units

In July 2015, the Board adopted a restricted share unit plan (the “RSU Plan”) pursuant to which restricted share units (“RSU’s”) may be granted to directors, executive officers, employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. A maximum of 2,500,000 common shares in the capital of the Company may be reserved for issuance under the RSU Plan at any time and, in combination with all share compensation arrangements of the Company including the New Stock Option Plan, may not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of the Company. Vested RSUs may be redeemed at the end of a performance period (meaning a period designated by the Board that commences on the grant date of an RSU and ends within three years following the end of the year of the grant date) for either one common share in the capital of the Company (with each full RSU to be redeemed for one common share) or, at the sole election of the Company, a lump sum payment equal to the amount determined by multiplying the number of RSUs to be redeemed in cash by the market price of a common share in the capital of the Company as determined in accordance with the RSU Plan. The RSU Plan was approved by shareholders of the Company on September 2, 2015 and by the TSX Venture Exchange on September 10, 2015.  There have been no RSU’s granted under the RSU Plan to date.

FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT


Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:


Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.


The fair value of the Company’s receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties approximate carrying value, which is the amount recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position.  The Company’s other financial instrument, cash and cash equivalents, under the fair value hierarchy, are based on level one quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  


The Company is exposed to varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks:


Credit risk


Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.


The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held at large Canadian and Argentinean financial institutions in interest bearing accounts. The Company has no investment in asset backed commercial paper.


The Company’s receivables consist mainly of tax credits due from the government of Canada. As such, the Company does not believe it is subject to significant credit risk.

 

Liquidity risk


The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due.  As at December 31, 2015, the Company had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $3,625,536 to settle current liabilities of $166,751.  Management believes that it has sufficient funds to meet its current liabilities as they become due.


Market risk


Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and commodity and equity prices.


a)

Interest rate risk


The Company has cash balances and interest-bearing investments. The interest earned on the investments approximates fair value rates, and the Company is not at a significant risk to fluctuating interest rates. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by its financial institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its banks. As at December 31, 2015, the Company had a total of $126,111 in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates.


The risk that the Company will realize a loss as a result of a decline in the fair value of the short-term investments included in cash and cash equivalents is minimal because of the short-term nature of these investments.


b)

Foreign currency risk


The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued liabilities that are denominated in United States dollars (“US$”) and Argentinean pesos. A 10% fluctuation in the US$ against the Canadian dollar would affect net comprehensive loss for the period by approximately $118,490.  A 10% fluctuation in the Argentine peso against the Canadian dollar would affect net comprehensive loss for the period by approximately $7,481.

FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT (cont’d…)


c)

Price risk


The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity and equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on earnings and economic value due to commodity price movements and volatilities. The Company closely monitors commodity prices of gold, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.


Capital management


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 exploration and development of its development assets, acquire additional mineral property interests and to maintain a flexible capital structure which optimizes the costs of capital at an acceptable level of risk. In the management of capital, the Company includes components of shareholders’ equity.


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 debt, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash and cash equivalents and investments.


The Company currently is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended December 31, 2015.


17.

COMMITMENTS


The Company has entered into lease agreements for its premises in Canada and Argentina.  The annual lease commitments are as follows:

a)

The completion of the sale of the Lindero project to an arm’s length third party.


b)

c)

Upon completion of a change of control of the Company.


The maximum amount to be paid upon the occurrence of one of these events would be $850,000.


18.

TRANSACTION COSTS


In January 2015, the Company terminated an arrangement agreement entered into in October 2014 with Chaparral Gold Corp. (“Chaparral) and Waterton Precious Metals Fund II Cayman, LP (“Waterton”) pursuant to which the Company was acquiring all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Chaparral (the “Chaparral Shares”) for $0.61 per Chaparral Share in cash, representing a total equity value of approximately $73.4 million on a fully diluted basis.   The Company assigned all of its rights and obligations under the arrangement agreement to Waterton Precious Metals Bid Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waterton.  In connection with the arrangement, the Company incurred transaction costs of $10,670 (2014 - $254,800).

GOLDROCK MINES CORP.


NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


CANADIAN FUNDS


JUNE 30, 2016


1.

NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS


Goldrock Mines Corp. (the "Company") is a Canadian company incorporated in British Columbia.  The Company is primarily engaged in the development of exploration and evaluation assets located primarily in Argentina.  The Company’s registered and records office was at Suite 910, 800 West Pender Street, Vancouver, Canada.  The Company’s head office was Suite 2300, 1177 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, Canada.


In March 2016, the Company issued a technical report on its Lindero gold heap leach project.  No active technical activities have occurred since then.  The ability of the Company to realize the costs it has incurred to date on its mineral property interests is dependent upon the Company being able to finance its development expenditures and to resolve any environmental, regulatory or other constraints which may hinder the successful development of the mineral property interest. To date, the Company has not earned any material revenues and is considered to be in the development stage.


These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue on a going-concern basis.  The Company has incurred losses since inception and the ability of the Company to continue as a going-concern depends upon its ability to develop profitable operations and to continue to raise adequate financing. Management is actively targeting sources of additional financing through alliances with financial, exploration and mining entities, or through other business and financial transactions which would assure continuation of the Company’s operations and exploration programs. In order for the Company to meet its liabilities as they come due and to continue its operations, the Company is solely dependent upon its ability to generate such financing.


Subsequent to the reporting period, on July 28, 2016, all of the share capital of the Company was acquired by Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. ("Fortuna").  The Company ceased trading on the TSX Venture Exchange, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Fortuna see, note 13.


The sole purpose of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements is for their inclusion in the «Business Acquisition Report» which is required by regulation to be filed by Fortuna.


2.

BASIS OF PREPARATION


These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (or simply, "financial statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 «Interim Financial Reporting». Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by IFRS for annual financial statements.


These financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of application as the Company’s most recent annual audited consolidated financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).  The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for cash flows and financial instruments classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss, which are stated at their estimated fair values.


Estimates, judgements, and assumptions


The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


GOLDROCK MINES CORP.


NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


CANADIAN FUNDS


JUNE 30, 2016


Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the end of the reporting period, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:


·

Capitalization of development costs

·

Carrying value and recoverability of development asset

·

Commencement of commercial production

·

Functional currencies

·

Fair value of stock options and warrants

·

Income taxes

·

Decommissioning costs


For further discussion of these estimates, judgements, and assumptions, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2015.


Basis of consolidation


These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates and has been determined for each entity within the Company. The functional currency for the entities within the Company is the Canadian dollar (the Company), the Argentine peso (Mansfield Minera SA) and the United States dollar (Mansfield (Bermuda) Ltd. and Argex Mining (Barbados) Inc).


Transactions in currencies other than the entities’ functional currency are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities of the entity that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange at the statement of financial position date, while non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates.  Revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rates approximating those in effect on the date of the transactions.  Exchange gains and losses arising upon translation are included in profit or loss.

FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT


Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:


Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.


The fair value of the Company’s receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties approximate carrying value, which is the amount recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position.  The Company’s other financial instrument, cash and cash equivalents, under the fair value hierarchy, are based on level one quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Subsequent to the reporting period, on July 28, 2016, Fortuna acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Goldrock by way of a court approved plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under the British Columbia «Business Corporations Act». The Arrangement was effected pursuant to an arrangement agreement dated June 7, 2016 between Fortuna and Goldrock. Under the terms of the Arrangement, Goldrock shareholders received 0.1331 of a common share of Fortuna for each common share of Goldrock held (the “Exchange Ratio”). Based on 109,460,918 Goldrock shares outstanding, Fortuna issued 14,569,045 common shares to complete the Arrangement.


Existing Goldrock warrants will be exercisable for Fortuna common shares based on the Exchange Ratio.


The Arrangement was approved by the Goldrock shareholders on July 25, 2016 and by the Supreme Court of British Columbia on July 26, 2016. The Arrangement became effective on July 28, 2016.


The Company ceased trading on the TSX Venture Exchange, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Fortuna.

1.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSACTION

On July 28, 2016, Fortuna Silver Mines Inc. ("Fortuna", or the "Company") acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Goldrock Mines Corp. (Goldrock) by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the «Business Corporations Act» (British Columbia) (the “Acquisition”).


Goldrock holds a 100% interest in the Lindero-Arizaro Project located in Salta Province, Argentina. The Lindero-Arizaro Project is an open pit, heap leach gold project.


Upon closing of the Acquisition, the Company acquired 100% of Goldrock’s issued and outstanding common shares, being 109,460,918 common shares, in exchange for 14,569,045 common shares of the Company (the “Fortuna Shares”) (representing an exchange ratio of 0.1331 Fortuna Shares for each common share of Goldrock).


Outstanding warrants to purchase Goldrock common shares were converted into warrants to acquire Fortuna Shares, adjusted in accordance with the same exchange ratio. As a result, 1,514,677 Fortuna Shares were made issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants to purchase Fortuna Shares.


These unaudited pro forma consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in connection with the acquisition by Fortuna of all of the outstanding shares of Goldrock.

Allocation of the consideration to assets acquired and liabilities assumed

We have allocated the consideration estimating the fair value of all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, other than mineral properties, to be equal to their carrying values. The balance of the consideration has been estimated to be the fair value of the acquired mineral property.


It is possible that the purchase price and fair values of assets and liabilities acquired will vary from those shown above and the differences may be material. The allocation of the purchase price is based upon our preliminary estimates and certain assumptions with respect to the fair value increment associated with the assets to be acquired and the liabilities to be assumed.  Consequently, the actual allocation of the purchase price may result in different adjustments than those presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
