Note 1: Nature of operations

 

Fury Gold Mines Limited (the “Company” or “Fury Gold”) was incorporated on June 9, 2008, under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the NYSE-American, with its common shares trading under the symbol FURY. The Company’s registered and records office is at 1500-1055 West Georgia Street Vancouver, BC, V6E 4N7 and the mailing address is 1630-1177 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, V6E 2K3.

 

The Company’s principal business activity is the acquisition and exploration of resource projects in Canada. At March 31, 2024, the Company had two principal projects: Eau Claire in Quebec and Committee Bay in Nunavut. Additionally, the Company holds an 18.99% common share interest in Dolly Varden Silver Corporation (“Dolly Varden”), which owns the Kitsault project in British Columbia and a 25% interest in Universal Mineral Services Limited (“UMS”), a private shared-services provider (note 5).

 

Note 2: Basis of presentation

 

Statement of compliance

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “interim financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Certain disclosures included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements (the “consolidated financial statements”) prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRICs”) have been condensed or omitted herein. Accordingly, these unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. These interim financial statements were approved and authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on May 14, 2024.

 

Basis of preparation and consolidation

 

These interim financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries). Control exists when the Company has power over an investee, exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee, and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the Company’s returns. The Company’s interim results are not necessarily indicative of its results for a full year.

 

The subsidiaries (with a beneficial interest of 100%) of the Company at March 31, 2024 were as follows:

These interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that have been measured at fair value (note 13). All amounts are expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted. Reference to US$ are to United States dollars. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Segmented information

 

The Company’s operating segments are reviewed by the key decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and to assess their performance. The Company operates in one reportable operating segment, being the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral resource properties, and in one geographical location, Canada.

 

Critical accounting estimates, judgements, and policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to select accounting policies and make estimates and judgments that may have a significant impact on consolidated financial statements. Estimates are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates.

 

In preparing the Company’s interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company applied the material accounting policy information and critical accounting estimates and judgements disclosed in notes 3 and 5, respectively, of its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Application of new and revised accounting standards:

 

On October 31, 2021, the IASB issued Non-current Liabilities with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1). The amendments to IAS 1 affect only the presentation of liabilities as current or non-current in the statement of financial position and not the amount or timing of recognition of any asset, liability, income or expenses, or the information disclosed about those items. The adoption of the new standard did not impact the financial statements of the Company.

 

On May 25, 2023, the IASB issued the final amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 which address the disclosure requirements to enhance the transparency of supplier finance arrangements and their effects on a company’s liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. The amendments to IAS 7 are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024 with earlier application permitted. The adoption of the new standard did not impact the financial statements of the Company.

 

On September 22, 2022, the IASB issued "Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16)" with amendments that clarify how a seller-lessee subsequently measures sale and leaseback transactions that satisfy the requirements in IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024 and earlier application is permitted. The adoption of the new standard did not impact the financial statements of the Company.

(1) On February 29, 2024, the Company, and its joint operation partner Newmont Corporation (“Newmont”), through their respective subsidiaries, closed a transaction whereby the Company acquired 100% control of the joint operation interests, the Éléonore South project, consolidating these properties into the Company’s portfolio at which time the joint venture operation was dissolved. The 49.978% that Newmont held was acquired by the Company for $3,000 while incurring $22 in transaction costs. As part of the same transaction, the Company also acquired a 10.9% interest in Sirios, as disclosed in note 3.

 

Note 5: Investments in Associates

 

(a)

Acquisition of investments in associates

 

 

(i)

On February 25, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Homestake Resources Corporation to Dolly Varden for cash proceeds of $5,000 and 76,504,590 common shares of Dolly Varden. The Company’s resulting interest in Dolly Varden represented approximately 35.3% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Dolly Varden on February 25, 2022, which has been accounted for using the equity method. The Company recognized a gain of $48,390, net of transaction costs of $589, on the date of disposition. On October 13, 2022, the Company completed the sale of 17,000,000 common shares of Dolly Varden for total gross proceeds of $6,800. On March 13, 2024 the Company sold a further 5,450,000 common shares of Dolly Varden for gross proceeds of $4,006 to decrease its holdings to 18.99% as at March 31, 2024, recognizing a gain of $537 and incurring $185 in costs to complete the transaction.

 

 

 

 

(ii)

On April 1, 2022, the Company purchased a 25% share interest in UMS, a private shared-services provider for nominal consideration. The Company funded, in addition to its nominal investment in UMS, a cash deposit of $150,000 which is held by UMS for the purposes of general working capital, and which will be returned to the Company upon termination of the UMS Canada arrangement, net of any residual unfulfilled obligations. UMS is the private company through which its shareholders, including Fury Gold, share geological, financial, and transactional advisory services as well as administrative services on a full, cost recovery basis.

Note 9: Share option, Restricted Share Units and warrant reserves

 

(a)

Share-based compensation expense

 

The Company uses the fair value method of accounting for all share-based payments to directors, officers, employees, and other service providers. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the share-based compensation expense was as follows:

Fees, salaries and other employee benefits

 

 

211

 

 

 

486

 

Total share-based compensation expense

 

$ 253

 

 

$ 686

 

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted 145,000 (March 31, 2023 – 2,893,800) share options to directors, officers, employees, and certain consultants who provide certain on-going services to the Company, representative of employee services.

 

Certain of the Company’s executive officer option grants issued in 2023 are subject to vesting restrictions, representing certain performance measures to be met. As at March 31, 2024, it is not considered probable that those performance measures will be achieved, therefore those options have been excluded from the share-based compensation expense recognized.

 

The weighted average fair value per option of these share options was calculated as $0.30 (March 31, 2023 - $0.48) using the Black-Scholes option valuation model at the grant date using the following weighted average assumptions:

5.0

 

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on the Government of Canada benchmark bond yields and treasury bills with a remaining term that approximates the expected life of the share-based options. The expected volatility assumption is based on the historical and implied volatility of the Company’s common shares. The expected forfeiture rate and the expected life in years are based on historical trends. 

 

(b)

Long-term incentive plan

 

The Company currently has two equity compensation plans, its 2017 Incentive Option Plan (“2017 Plan”), and the LTI Plan which was approved by shareholders on June 29, 2023. The LTI Plan is a rolling plan pursuant to which Options and Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”), totalling to a maximum of 10% of the Common Shares issued and outstanding from time to time, are available for grant.

 

The Company may grant share options and RSUs, from time to time to its eligible directors, officers, employees, and other service providers.

 

The share options typically vest as to 25% on the date of the grant and 12.5% every three months thereafter for a total vesting period of 18 months.

(b)

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

 

The categories of the fair value hierarchy that reflect the significance of inputs used in making fair value measurements are as follows:

 

Level 1 – fair values based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 – fair values based on inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3 – fair values based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

 

The Company’s policy to determine when a transfer occurs between levels is to assess the impact at the date of the event or the change in circumstances that could result in a transfer. No transfers occurred between the levels during the period.

 

The Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis were the Company’s marketable securities which were classified as Level 1 at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 – Level 1).

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no financial assets or financial liabilities measured and recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position at fair value that would be categorized as level 2 or 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

Financial instruments and related risks

 

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to liquidity risk, credit risk and market risks, which include currency risk and price risk. As at March 31, 2024, the primary risks were as follows:

 

Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company proactively manages its capital resources and has in place a budgeting and cash management process to help determine the funds required to ensure the Company has the appropriate liquidity to meet its current exploration plans and achieve its growth objectives. The Company ensures that there is sufficient liquidity available to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash outflows from exploration activities, and its holdings of cash and marketable securities. The Company monitors and adjusts, when required, these exploration programs as well as corporate administrative costs to ensure that adequate levels of working capital are maintained.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company had unrestricted cash of $5,731 (December 31, 2023 – $7,313), working capital surplus of $8,114 (December 31, 2023 –$7,713), which the Company defines as current assets less current liabilities, and an accumulated deficit of $149,988 (December 31, 2023 – $149,054). The Company notes that the flow-through share premium liability, which reduced the Company’s working capital by $264 (December 31, 2023 – $544), is not settled through cash payment. Instead, the flow-through share premium liability will be drawn down as the Company incurs flow-through eligible exploration expenditures on its Quebec properties. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, Fury Gold recognized a net loss of $934 (three months ended March 31, 2023 –$2,661). The Company expects to incur future operating losses in relation to exploration activities. With no source of operating cash flow, there is no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to conduct further exploration and development of its mineral properties.

The Company also makes certain payments arising on mineral claims and leases on an annual or bi-annual basis to ensure all the Company’s properties remain in good standing. Cash payments of $43 were made during the three months ended March 31, 2024, in respect of these mineral claims.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company entered into a drilling services contract and has committed to an approximate 2,500 metre drilling program with the contractor, to be completed in April 2024.

 

Credit risk

 

The Company’s cash and accounts receivable are exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparties to the Company’s financial instruments will cause a loss to the Company by failing to pay their obligations. The amount of credit risk to which the Company is exposed is considered insignificant as the Company’s cash is held with highly rated financial institutions in interest-bearing accounts and the accounts receivable primarily consist of sales tax receivables and a receivable from a reputable supplier of services in Canada.

 

Market risk

 

This is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Significant market risks to which the Company is exposed are as follows:

 

i.

Currency risk

 

The Company is exposed to currency risk by having balances and transactions in currencies that are different from its functional currency (the Canadian dollar). The Company’s foreign currency exposure related to its financial assets and liabilities held in US dollars was as follows:

A 10% increase or decrease in the US dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate would not have a material impact on the Company’s net loss.

 

ii.

Price risk

 

The Company holds certain investments in marketable securities (note 3) which are measured at fair value, being the closing share price of each equity security at the date of the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position. The Company is exposed to changes in share prices which would result in gains and losses being recognized in the earnings for the period. A 10% increase or decrease in the Company’s marketable securities’ share prices would not have a material impact on the Company’s net income.
