Hunt Mining Corp.
Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Expressed in US Dollars)
Three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

 
1.
Nature of Business

Hunt Mining Corp. (the "Company" or "Hunt Mining"), is a mineral exploration and processing company incorporated on January 10, 2006 under the laws of Alberta, Canada and, together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the exploration of mineral properties in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina.

Effective November 6, 2013, the Company relocated from the Province of Alberta to the Province of British Columbia. The Company's registered office is located at 25th Floor, 700 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C. V7Y 1B3. The Company's head office is located at 23800 E Appleway Avenue, Liberty Lake, Washington, 99019 USA.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances:

 
Corporation
 
Incorporation
Percentage
ownership
Business Purpose
Cerro Cazador S.A. ("CCSA")
Argentina
100%
Holder of Assets and Exploration Company
Ganadera Patagonia(1)
Argentina
40%
Land Holding Company
1494716 Alberta Ltd.
Alberta
100%
Nominee Shareholder
Hunt Gold USA LLC
Washington, USA
100%
Management Company

(1) The Company has determined that the subsidiary is a variable interest entity because the Company is the primary beneficiary of the land the subsidiary holds, and therefore consolidates the subsidiary in its financial statements.

The Company's activities include the exploration and processing of minerals from properties in Argentina including the Mina Martha project (Note 8) and the La Josefina project on a metallurgical test basis. On the basis of information to date, the Company has not yet determined whether the Exploration properties contain economically recoverable ore reserves. The underlying value of the mineral properties is entirely dependent upon the existence of reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete development and upon future profitable production or a sale of these properties. The Mina Martha project was purchased in the second quarter of 2016 and refurbishing activities began in late 2016. The Company finished all refurbishments to the Mina Martha project in the first quarter of 2017 and began selling concentrate in the second quarter of 2017. In 2018, the Company continued the sale of concentrate from Martha as well as began metallurgical tests on the La Josefina project. Concentrate produced as a byproduct of this testing was sold in 2018.

Ongoing production at the Martha Project is being undertaken without established mineral resources or reserves and the Company has not established the economic viability of the operations on the Martha Project. As a result, there is increased uncertainty and economic risks of failure associated with these production activities

Despite the sale of concentrate, all projects remain in the exploration stage because management has not established proven or probable ore reserves required to be classified in either the development or production stage. As such, the sales of concentrate are classified as silver and gold recovery, net of expenses in profit and loss.

2. Basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America ("US GAAP").

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments measured at fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.

Hunt Mining Corp.
Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Expressed in US Dollars)
Three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018


The Company's presentation currency is the US Dollar.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Judgments made by management in the application of US GAAP that have a significant effect on the consolidated financial statements and estimates with significant risk of material adjustment in the current and following periods are discussed in Note 6.

3. Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company had net loss of $917,939. As at March 31, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $40,475,775. The Company intends to continue funding operations through operation of the Martha mine, La Josefina project and equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending March 31, 2019.
These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
4. Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are described below.

(a) Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the revaluation of certain financial assets and financial liabilities to fair value.

(b) Consolidation

The Company's consolidated financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses from intercompany transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

(c) Foreign currency translation

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the rates of exchange prevailing at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates throughout the reporting period. Gains and losses on translation of foreign currencies are included in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. All of the Company's subsidiaries have a US dollar functional currency. Financial statements are translated to their US dollar equivalents using the current rate method. Under this method, the statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows for each period have been translated using the average exchange rates prevailing during each period. All assets and liabilities have been translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments are recorded as income or losses in other comprehensive income or loss. Transaction gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized as incurred in the accompanying consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

(d) Financial instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on US GAAP guidance, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
The Company classifies financial assets and liabilities as held-for-trading, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity, loans and receivables or other financial liabilities depending on their nature. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized at fair value on their initial recognition, except for those arising from certain related party transactions, which are accounted for at the transferor's carrying amount or exchange amount.
Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in net income. Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, and financial liabilities other than those classified as held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method of amortization. Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses being recognized as other comprehensive income until realized, or if an unrealized loss is considered other than temporary, the unrealized loss is recorded in income.
See Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for fair value disclosures.
(e) Cash and equivalents
Cash and equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held with banks and other liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company has no cash equivalents for all periods presented.
(f) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of an asset.
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss during the period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated to amortize the cost of the property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Plant, buildings, equipment and vehicles are stated at cost and depreciated straight line over an estimated useful life of three to eight years. Depreciation begins once the asset is in the state intended for use by management.
The Company allocates the amount initially recognized in respect of an item of property and equipment to its significant parts and depreciates separately each such part. Residual values, method of depreciation and useful lives of the assets are reviewed annually and adjusted if appropriate.\ains and losses on disposals of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount of the asset and are included as part of other gains or losses in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

(g) Mineral properties and exploration and evaluation expenditures

All exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred. Expenditures to acquire mineral rights, to develop new mines, to define further mineralization in mineral properties which are in the development or operating stage, and to expand the capacity of operating mines, are capitalized and amortized on a units-of-production basis over proven and probable reserves.

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss. The Company charges to the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties sold. Capitalized costs are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

(h) Long-lived assets

Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long-lived assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 (i) Asset retirement obligations

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs a legal constructive obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, and/or normal use of the long-lived assets. The Company also records a corresponding asset, which is amortized over the life of the asset. Subsequent to the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the obligation is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time (accretion expense) and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation (asset retirement cost).

(j) Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under the asset and liability method, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be recognized.

(k) Share-based compensation

The Company offers a share option plan for its directors, officers, employees and consultants. ASC 718 "Compensation – Stock Compensation" prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, "Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees." Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

(l) Earnings (loss) per share

The calculation of earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding for each period. The basic EPS is calculated by dividing the earnings or loss attributable to the equity owners of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The computation of diluted EPS assumes the conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities only when such conversion, exercise or issuance would have a dilutive effect on the earnings per share. The treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of the warrants and share options. When the Company reports a loss, the diluted net loss per common share is equal to the basic net loss per common share due to the anti-dilutive effect of the outstanding warrants and share options.

(m) Silver and gold recovery (loss), net of expenses

Recovery of concentrate and other income is recognized when title and the risks and rewards of ownership to deliver concentrate and commodities pass to the buyer and collection is reasonably assured. Sale of concentrate is classified as silver and gold recovery, net of expenses in profit and loss because the Company has not established proven or probable ore reserves and remains in the exploration stage as defined by Industry guide 7.

Not all overhead costs are applied against Silver and gold recovery. Since the Company has no reserves, the Company is treated as an exploration company and as such, direct cost, portions of fixed costs and portions of variable costs are applied against Silver and gold recovery. Other administrative, office, professional fees, and travel are disclosed separately.

From time to time, some of the Company's sales of concentrate are made under provisional pricing arrangements where the final sale prices are determined by quoted market prices in a period subsequent to the date of sale. In these circumstances, sales are recorded at period end based on latest information about prices and quantities available to management for the expected date of final settlement. Under such arrangements, the Company's receivable changes as the underlying commodity market price varies, this component of the contract is an embedded derivative which is recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit and loss and receivables. Subsequent variations in prices and metal quantities are recognized as they occur.

(n) Inventories

Mineral concentrate and mineralized material stockpiles are physically measured or estimated and valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated future sales price of the product the entity expects to realize when the product is processed and sold, less estimated costs to complete production and bring the product to sale. Where the time value of money is material, these future prices and costs to complete are discounted.

If the stockpile is not expected to be processed in 12 months after the reporting date, it is included in noncurrent assets and the net realizable value is calculated on a discounted cash flow basis.

Cost of silver concentrate and mineralized material stockpiles is determined by using the weighted average method and comprises direct costs and a portion of fixed and variable overhead costs incurred in converting materials into concentrate, based on the normal production capacity.

Materials and supplies are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Any provision for obsolescence is determined by reference to specific items of stock. A regular review is undertaken to determine the extent of any provision for obsolescence.

5. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Leases
 
In February 2016, ASU No. 2016-02 was issued related to leases. The new guidance modifies the classification criteria and requires lessees to recognize the assets and liabilities arising from most leases on the balance sheet. This update is effective in fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has evaluated all contracts which could be classified as leases under the new standards and determined that any impact as a result of adoption would not be material.

6. Critical accounting judgments and estimates
(a) Significant judgments

Preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments in applying the Company's accounting policies. Judgments that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in these consolidated financial statements relate to functional currency; income taxes; provisions and reclamation and closure cost obligations. These judgments have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

Functional Currency

Management determines the functional currency for each entity. This requires that management assess the primary economic environment in which each of these entities operates. Management's determination of functional currencies affects how the Company translates foreign currency balances and transactions. Determination includes an assessment of various indicators. In determining the functional currency of the Company's operations in Canada (Canadian dollar) and Argentina (U.S. dollar), management considered the indicators of ASC 830.

Income Taxes and value-added taxes receivable

Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain and subject to judgment. The Company recognizes liabilities and contingencies for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Company's current understanding of the tax law in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. For matters where it is probable that an adjustment will be made, the Company records its best estimate of the tax liability including the related interest and penalties in the current tax provision. Management believes they have adequately provided for the probable outcome of these matters; however, the final outcome may result in a materially different outcome than the amount included in the tax liabilities.

The Company has receivables due from the Argentinean government for value-added taxes. Significant estimates and judgments are involved in the assessment of recoverability of these receivables. Changes in management's impairment assumptions may result in an additional impairment provision, or a reduction to any previously recorded impairment provision, with the impact recorded in profit and loss.

Provisions

Management makes judgments as to whether an obligation exists and whether an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits of a liability of uncertain timing or amount is probable, not probable or remote. Management considers all available information relevant to each specific matter.

Reclamation and closure costs obligations

The Argentine mining regulations require that mine property be restored in accordance with specified standards and an approved reclamation plan. Significant reclamation activities include reclaiming refuse and slurry ponds, reclaiming the pit and support acreage at surface mines, and sealing portals at deep mines. The Company accrues for the cost of final mine closure reclamation over the estimated useful mining life of the property. At each period, the Company reviews the entire reclamation liability and makes necessary adjustments for revisions to cost estimates to reflect current experience.

The Company has adopted ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations, which requires legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets to be recognized at their fair value at the time that the obligations are incurred. Upon initial recognition of a liability, that cost is capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset and allocated to expense over the useful life of the asset.

Title to Mineral Property Interests

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

(b) Estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company also makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment based on various assumptions and other factors such as historical experience and current and expected economic conditions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions relate to title to mineral property interests; asset retirement obligations and inventories. These estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

The Company is also exposed to legal risk. The outcome of currently pending and future proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty. Thus, an adverse decision in a lawsuit could result in additional costs that are not covered, either wholly or partly, under insurance policies and that could significantly influence the business and results of operations.

Estimates and assumptions are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Asset retirement obligation

Upon retirement of the Company's mineral properties, retirement 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 affected by estimates with respect to the costs and timing of retiring the assets.

Inventories

Net realizable value tests are performed at each reporting date and represent the estimated future sales price of the product the Company expects to realize when the product is processed and sold, less estimated costs to complete production and bring the product to sale. Where the time value of money is material, these future prices and costs to complete are discounted.

Stockpiles are measured by estimating the number of tonnes added and removed from the stockpile, the number of contained mineral ounces is based on assay data, and the estimated recovery percentage is based on the expected processing method. Stockpile tonnages are verified by periodic surveys.

Silver and gold recovery (loss), net of expenses

From time to time, some of the Company's sales of concentrate are made under provisional pricing arrangements where the final sale prices are determined by quoted market prices in a period subsequent to the date of sale. In these circumstances, sales are recorded at period end based on latest information about prices and quantities available to management for the expected date of final settlement.

Change in estimates

During 2018, the Company conducted a review of its plant and buildings which resulted in changes in its expected use. It was determined that the renovation work performed in 2016 and 2017 on these assets was having greater success than originally anticipated in extending their useful life. Additionally, metallurgical studies performed throughout 2018 confirmed that the plant could be successfully used to process mineralized materials from other mineral properties of the Company. It is now expected that the useful life of these assets will be extended from an original estimate of 36 months in 2017 to 87 months from December 31, 2018.

Inventory at March 31, 2019 includes $616,253 (December 31, 2018 - $616,253) of gold concentrate which resulted from the metallurgical testing on the La Josefina project. The Company is currently working with, the local state agency, Fomicruz to establish a formal agreement for full production rights on the project, and in good faith does not plan to sell the gold concentrate until those terms can be finalized. As this process is expected to be resolved within the year, the gold concentrate has been classified as a current asset within inventory. Fomicruz will have rights to a 5% net smelter royalty on the sale of this inventory under the current agreements in place.

Subsequent to March 31, 2019, the Company reached an agreement with Fomicruz for the continued metallurgical testing and sale of gold concentrate produced from such testing.

8. Mineral properties
(a) Acquisition of Mina Martha project

On May 6, 2016, the Company acquired the assets of the Mina Martha project from Coeur Mining Inc. ("Coeur"). The Mina Martha project consists of land, mineral rights, a mine camp, offices, a warehouse, maintenance shop, mining facilities including a flotation mill and a tailings retention facility.

 (b) Acquisition of La Josefina project
In March 2007, the Company acquired the exploration and development rights to the La Josefina project from Fomento Minero de Santa Cruz Sociedad del Estado ("Fomicruz").

In July 2007, the Company entered into an agreement (subsequently amended) with Fomicruz which provides that, in the event that a positive feasibility study is completed on the La Josefina property, a Joint Venture Corporation ("JV Corporation") would be formed by the Company and Fomicruz. The Company would own 81% of the joint venture company and Fomicruz would own the remaining 19%. Fomicruz has the option to earn up to a 49% participating interest in the JV Corporation by reimbursing the Company an equivalent amount, up to 49%, of the exploration investment made by the Company. The Company has the right to buy back any increase in Fomicruz's ownership interest in the JV Corporation at a purchase price of USD$200,000 per each percentage interest owned by Fomicruz down to its initial ownership interest of 19%; the Company can also purchase 10% of the Fomicruz's initial 19% JV Corporation ownership interest by negotiating a purchase price with Fomicruz. Under the agreement, the Company has until the end of 2019 to complete cumulative exploration expenditures of $18 million and determine if it will enter into production on the property. At December 31, 2018, the Company had incurred approximately $20 million and is in current discussions with Fomicruz to develop a plan for production in early to mid-2019.
As at March 31, 2019 this project has a carrying amount of $Nil (2018 - $Nil) on the consolidated balance sheet.

(c) Acquisition of La Valenciana project

On November 1, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement for the exploration of the La Valenciana project in Santa Cruz province, Argentina. The agreement is for a total of 7 years, expiring on October 31, 2019. The agreement requires the Company to spend $5,000,000 in exploration on the project over 7 years. If the Company elects to exercise its option to bring the La Valenciana project into production, it must grant Fomicruz a 9% ownership in a new JV Corporation to be created by the Company to manage the project and the Company will have a 91% ownership interest in the JV Corporation.

As at March 31, 2019 this project has a carrying amount of $Nil (2018 - $Nil) on the consolidated balance sheet.

9. Asset retirement obligation
On May 6, 2016, the Company purchased the Mina Martha project (Note 8). The Company is legally required to perform reclamation on the site to restore it to its original condition at the end of its useful life. In accordance with FASB ASC 410-20, Asset Retirement Obligations, the Company recognized the fair value of that liability as an asset retirement obligation. The total amount of undiscounted cash flows required to settle the estimated obligation is $1,940,270 which has been discounted using a credit-adjusted rate of 10% (2018 – 10%) and an inflation rate of 2% (2018 – 2%).

11. Performance bond
 
The performance bond, originally required to secure the Company's rights to explore the La Josefina property, is a step-up US dollar denominated 2.5% coupon bond, paying quarterly, issued by the Government of Argentina with a face value of $600,000 and a maturity date of 2035. The bond trades in the secondary market in Argentina. The bond was originally purchased for $247,487. As of the three months ended March 31, 2019, the value of the bond increased to $327,983 (December 31, 2018 - $315,378). The change in the face value of the performance bond of $12,605 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 (December 31, 2018- $119,261) is recorded as other comprehensive loss in the Company's consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Since Cerro Cazador S.A. ("CCSA") fulfilled its exploration expenditure requirement mandated by the agreement with Fomento Minero de Santa Cruz Sociedad del Estado ("Fomicruz"), the performance bond was no longer required to secure the La Josefina project. Therefore, in September 2010 the Company used the bond to secure the La Valenciana project, an additional Fomicruz exploration project.

17. Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, performance bond, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, transaction taxes payable, loan payable, interest payable, and long-term debt.

The Company characterizes inputs used in determining fair value using a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs depending on the degree to which they are observable. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

·
Level 1: inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
·
Level 2: inputs, other than quoted prices, that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, market interest rates, and volatility factors, which can be observed or corroborated in the market place.
·
Level 3: inputs are less observable, unavoidable or where the observable data does not support the majority of the instruments' fair value.

Cash and performance bond are measured based on Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy on a recurring basis.
The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, bank indebtedness, loan payable, interest payable, and long-term debt approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments and because long-term debt approximates a market rate of interest. The Company assessed that there were no indicators of impairment for these financial instruments.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables and VAT recoverable and are not considered subject to significant risk, because the amounts are due from a government and a customer who is considered credit worthy.

The Company has concentrations of credit risk with respect to its trade receivables, the majority of which are concentrated geographically in Argentina amongst a small number of customers. As at December 31, 2018, the Company had one customer whose trade receivable of $450,312 (December 31, 2018 – $438,042) accounted for greater than 10% of the total trade receivables. The Company controls credit risk through monitoring procedures, and by performing credit evaluations of its customers, but generally does not require collateral to secure accounts receivable.

The Company has concentrations in the volume of sales it made to customers. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company made sales of $383,552 to one customer which accounted for greater than 10% of the total silver and gold recovery, net of expenses (2018 - $3,961,399).

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of the operating results, corporate activities and financial condition of Hunt Mining Corp. (hereinafter referred to as "we", "us", "Hunt Mining", "HMX", or the "Company") and its subsidiaries provides an analysis of the operating and financial results between December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019 and a comparison of the material changes in our results of operations and financial condition between the year ended December 31, 2018 and the three months ended March 31, 2019. This discussion should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

This discussion and analysis contain forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under the heading "Risk Factors and Uncertainties" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2018, and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The interim statements have been prepared in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("US GAAP") as required under U.S. federal securities laws applicable to the Company, and as permitted under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company is a reporting company under applicable securities laws in Canada and the United States. The reporting currency used in our financial statements is the United States Dollar.

The information contained within this report is current as of May 15, 2019 unless otherwise noted.

Additional information relevant to the Company's activities can be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Regarding Reserve and Resource Estimates

The Company uses Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definitions for the terms "proven reserves", "probable reserves", "measured resources", "indicated resources" and "inferred resources". U.S. investors are cautioned that while these terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, including National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"), the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") does not recognize them.

Canadian mining disclosure standards differ from the requirements of the SEC under SEC Industry Guide 7, and reserve and resource information referenced in this Form 10-Q may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by companies reporting under U.S. standards. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term "resource" does not equate to the term "reserve". Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made.

The SEC's disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning "measured mineral resources" or "indicated mineral resources" or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute "reserves" by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource estimate is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43- 101 for identification of "reserves" are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as "reserves" under SEC standards.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may constitute "forward-looking statements about the Company and its business. Forward looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and include, but are not limited to, reserve and resource estimates, estimated value of the project, projected investment returns, anticipated mining and processing methods for the project, the estimated economics of the project, anticipated Hunt Mining recoveries, production rates, grades, estimated capital costs, operating cash costs and total production costs, planned additional processing work and environmental permitting. The forward-looking statements in this report are subject to various risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the Company's actual results or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward looking statements.

These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, without limitation:
 
·
risks related to uncertainty of Hunt Mining property valuation assumptions;
·
uncertainties related to raising sufficient financing to fund the project in a timely manner and on acceptable terms;
·
changes in planned work resulting from logistical, technical or other factors; the possibility that results of work will not fulfill expectations and realize the perceived potential of the Company's properties;
·
uncertainties involved in the estimation of Hunt Mining reserves and resources;
·
the possibility that required permits may not be obtained on a timely manner or at all;
·
the possibility that capital and operating costs may be higher than currently estimated and may preclude commercial development or render operations uneconomic;
·
the possibility that the estimated recovery rates may not be achieved;
·
risk of accidents, equipment breakdowns and labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties or interruptions;
·
the possibility of cost overruns or unanticipated expenses in the work program;
·
risks related to projected project economics, recovery rates, estimated NPV and anticipated IRR; and
·
other factors identified in the Company's SEC filings and its filings with Canadian securities regulatory authorities.

Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, opinions and expectations of the Company's management at the time they are made, and other than as required by applicable securities laws, the Company does not assume any obligation to update its forward-looking statements if those beliefs, opinions or expectations, or other circumstances, should change.

Hunt Mining Corporation Corporate Overview

Hunt Mining Corp. (the "Company" or "Hunt Mining"), is a mineral exploration and processing company incorporated on January 10, 2006 under the laws of Alberta, Canada and, together with its subsidiaries, is engaged in the exploration of mineral properties in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina.

Effective November 6, 2013, the Company relocated from the Province of Alberta to the Province of British Columbia. The Company's registered office is located at 25th Floor, 700 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C. V7Y 1B3. The Company's head office is located at 23800 E Appleway Avenue, Liberty Lake, Washington, 99019 USA.

The Company's activities include the exploration and processing of minerals from properties in Argentina including the Mina Martha project (Note 8) and the La Josefina project on a metallurgical test basis. On the basis of information to date, the Company has not yet determined whether the Exploration properties contain economically recoverable ore reserves. The underlying value of the mineral properties is entirely dependent upon the existence of reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete development and upon future profitable production or a sale of these properties. The Mina Martha project was purchased in the second quarter of 2016 and refurbishing activities began in late 2016. The Company finished all refurbishments to the Mina Martha project in the first quarter of 2017 and began selling concentrate in the second quarter of 2017. In 2018, the Company continued the sale of concentrate from Martha as well as began metallurgical tests on the La Josefina project. Concentrate produced as a byproduct of this testing was sold in 2018.

Ongoing production at the Martha Project is being undertaken without established mineral resources or reserves and the Company has not established the economic viability of the operations on the Martha Project. As a result, there is increased uncertainty and economic risks of failure associated with these production activities

Despite the sale of concentrate, all projects remain in the exploration stage because management has not established proven or probable ore reserves required to be classified in either the development or production stage. As such, the sales of concentrate are classified as silver and gold recovery, net of expenses in profit and loss.

Principal Properties Review
 
Ongoing production at the Martha Project is being undertaken without established mineral resources or reserves and the Company has not established the economic viability of the operations on the Martha Project. As a result, there is increased uncertainty and economic risk of failure associated with these production activities. A NI 43-101 compliant technical report from 2010 does exist for the La Josefina project with measured, indicated and inferred resources. The Ailin vein is part of this resource estimate.

Donald J. Birak, an independent consultant, is the qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 who has approved the technical and scientific aspects of this report.
 
La Josefina Property
 
The La Josefina Project is situated about 450 km northwest of the city of Rio Gallegos, in the Santa Cruz province of Argentina within a scarcely populated steppe-like region known as Patagonia. The La Josefina property occupies 52,800 hectares and makes up approximately 90% of all meters drilled by the Company.

The La Josefina Project consists of mineral rights composed by an area of 528 square kilometers established in 1994 as a Mineral Reserve held by Fomicruz, an oil and mining company owned by the Santa Cruz provincial government. The La Josefina Project comprises 16 Manifestations of Discovery totaling 52,767 hectares which are partially covered by 399 pertenencias.

Mina Martha Property

Martha is located in the province of Santa Cruz, Argentina, at 48o , 41', 33.94" south latitude and 69o , 42', 00.79" west longitude (degrees, minutes, seconds) at approximately 350 meters elevation. The closest community is the town of Gobernador Gregores, situated approximately 50 road kilometers (km) to the west-southwest of Martha.

The property was purchased in 2016 by Cerro Cazador SA (CCSA), an Argentine subsidiary of the Company, from an Argentine subsidiary of Coeur Mining Inc. (Coeur). The intent to purchase was announced February 10, 2016 and closed May 11, 2016 as disclosed by the Company on its website (www.huntmining.com). See note 8 of the 2017 financial statements for details on the purchase of the Mina Martha property. The processing plant at the Martha Project has an estimated useful life of 8 years as it is anticipated that this plant will be used to process mineral from the Martha and the La Josefina projects.
 

 

- 25 -



 
The Martha property consists of approximately 7,850 hectares of concessions, various buildings and facilities, surface and underground mining and support equipment, a 480 tonne per day (tpd - maximum) crushing, grinding and flotation plant, tailings facility, various stockpiles and waste dumps, employee living and cafeteria quarters, and miscellaneous physical materials. The Company restored and repaired the physical assets acquired in the purchase during the latter part of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017. The In addition, the Company has access to surface ranch ("estancia") lands surrounding the mine and mill site that are approximately 35,700 hectares in size.

Royal Gold Inc. holds a 2% Net Smelter Return (NSR) royalty on all production from the Martha property; the obligation for which transferred from Coeur to the Company (www.royalgold.com). In addition, the provincial government holds a 3% pit-head royalty from future production

La Valenciana Property

La Valenciana is located on the central-north area of the Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. The project encompasses an area of approximately 29,600 hectares and is contiguous to the Company's La Josefina property to the east. The La Valenciana project is comprised of 11 Manifestations of Discovery covering segments of Estancia Canodon Grande, Estancia Flecha Negra, Estancia Las Vallas, Estancia La Florentina, Estancia La Valenciana and Estancia La Modesta (inactive ranches).

Bajo Pobre Property

The Bajo Pobre property covers 3,190 hectares and is mainly on the Estancia Bajo Pobre. The property is located 90 kilometers south of the town of Las Heras. No exploration activity has taken place on the Bajo Pobre Property and no exploration activity is planned for the immediate future.

El Gateado Property

In March 2006, CCSA acquired the right to conduct exploration on the El Gateado property through a claim staking process for a period of at least 1,000 days, commencing after the Government issues a formal claim notice, and retain 100% ownership of any mineral deposit found within. El Gateado is a 10,000-hectare exploration concession filed with the Santa Cruz Provincial mining authority. The El Gateado property is located in the north-central part of Santa Cruz province, contiguous to La Josefina on the east

The Company has not yet received a formal claim notice pertaining to the El Gateado property. Should a mineral deposit be discovered, CCSA has the exclusive option to file for mining rights on the property. The surface rights of the El Gateado claim are held by the following Ranches, Estancia Los Ventisqueros, Estancia La Primavera, Estancia La Virginia and Estancia Piedra Labrada. The El Gateado claims are filed with the government under file #406.776/DPS/06.

The El Gateado project is without known reserves as defined by SEC industry Guide No. 7. No exploration activity has taken place on El Gateado Property and no exploration activity is planned for the immediate future.

Operating results Revenues and Expenses

The Company's results have changed in all areas due to the purchase of the Mina Martha property in 2016. Start-up costs during January, February and a portion of March 2017 to refurbish the buildings, equipment and commission the mill for operations were offset by recording proceeds from the sale of tailing material to Triton during the first quarter of 2017 and recording the first shipment of concentrate from the mill as Cost Recovery which was included as part of the Silver Recovery during the three months ended September 2017. Management determined the mine, mill and other direct costs related to concentrate sales were to be an offset to the Silver Recovery revenues.

Recoveries can mostly be attributed to the recovery of gold and silver. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 the Company sold 37 ounces of gold at an average price of $1,287 and 22,205 ounces of silver at an average price of $15.11 for net proceeds of $327,136 (2018 – 79 ounces at an average price of $1,324 and 56,553 ounces of silver at an average price of $16.58). 33 tonnes of gold/silver concentrate were shipped during the three months ended March 31, 2019 with average grades of Au 64.6 g/mt and Ag 38,468 g/mt. (2018 – 33 tonnes of gold/silver concentrate at grades of 74.01 g/mt Au and 52,835 g/mt Ag)

The working capital and shareholders' equity unfavorable changes were primarily due to increased short-term borrowings to fund activities as first quarter sales were slower than anticipated because the Company was awaiting permission to ship concentrate produced from metallurgical testing on the La Josefina project.

Total assets and non-current liabilities favorable change were due to normal fluctuations in operations and because the company was able to repay some debt with funds from concentrate shipments.

Variance Analysis for Net Income

There were relatively few variations in the results of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the three months ended March 31, 2018 other than that the company did not do any work on the La Josefina project while it was waiting for approvals to continue with metallurgical testing. In 2018, the company had incurred approximately 148,000 in exploration costs while in the same period for 2019, none were incurred. There were approximately $84,000 less in silver and gold recovery due to only having one shipment in this period compared to two shipments during the same period in 2018. The three months ended March 31, 2019 also had reduced from previous year's comparative period due to the change in accounting estimate disclosed in the 2018 audited consolidated financial statements.

Cash flow discussion for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 compared to March 31, 2018

The cash from operating activities prior to items not affecting cash and non-cash items was $684,229 an increase of $1,062,947 compared with outflows of $378,718 for the 2018 period. This is mostly due to the company having increases in accounts payable during the first quarter 2019 of $1,460,272 to fund activities, while in the first quarter of 2018 it had reduced its accounts payable by $689,777. Other significant changes is that the company had cash inflows in 2018 from collections of accounts receivable of approximately $750,000 while in the current period receivables decreased by approximately $25,000. The result is that compared, compared to 2018, there was approximately $724,000 less cash from changes in receivable. Inventory levels at March 31, 2019 were significantly higher than those at March 31, 2018, resulting in approximately $475,000 more cash outlays than the comparative period. Other minor fluctuations in operating and working capital items resulted in variances from prior year's cash flows from operations of approximately $54,000 more cash outflows.

There were no investing activities in 2019.

Cash outflows from financing activities was a due to the repayment of the operating line of credit of $330,000, the principal repayments on loans of $537,076 and the acquisition of new debt of $750,276

Financial Position

Cash

The Company's cash position at March 31, 2019 remained relatively consistent with the levels at December 31, 2018, with only an increase of $72,778. The details of changes in cash are outlined above.

Accounts receivables

The accounts receivable balance decreased from December 31, 2018 by $25,347 due to collecting final payment on a 2018 shipment and awaiting final payment on a smaller shipment made in 2019.

Inventory

Inventory increased from December 31, 2018 for work related to a shipment of concentrate that took place subsequent to March 31, 2019.

Property Plant and equipment

Property and equipment only changed from prior period by depreciation expense in 2019.

Mineral interests

Mineral interests remained the same.

Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, bank indebtedness and accounts payable with related parties

At March 31, 2019, the Company had a negative working capital of $8,417,126 as compared to a negative working capital of $7,616,966 at December 31, 2018.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2019.

Our management, with the participation of our president (our principal executive officer, principal accounting officer and principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our president (our principal executive officer, principal accounting officer and principal financial officer) has concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer and principal financial officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our president (our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer and principal financial officer), to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of our Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of our Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.

Further, the evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting was made as of a specific date, and continued effectiveness in future periods is subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management has conducted, with the participation of our president (our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer and principal financial officer), an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2019 in accordance with the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management concluded that as of March 31, 2019, our company's internal control over financial reporting was effective based on present Company activity

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation described above during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
