For the three months ended March 31, 2023

(Unaudited – expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Skeena Resources Limited (“Skeena” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada, and its principal business activity is the exploration of mineral properties focused in British Columbia. The Company’s corporate office is located at Suite 650, 1021 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 0C3. The Company’s stock is trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “SKE”, and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “RXF”. The Company is in the exploration stage with respect to its mineral property interests.

The Company relies on share issuances in order to fund its exploration and evaluation activities and other business objectives. As at March 31, 2023, the Company has cash and cash equivalents of $21,702,000. Based on forecasted expenditures, this balance will be sufficient to fund the Company’s committed exploration and evaluation expenditures and general administrative costs for at least the next twelve months. However, if the Company continues its current level of exploration and evaluation activities throughout the next twelve months, the current cash balances will not be sufficient to fund these expenditures. In the longer term, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon successful execution of its business plan (including bringing the Eskay Creek project to profitable operation), raising additional capital or evaluating strategic alternatives for its mineral property interests. The Company expects to continue to raise the necessary operating funds primarily through the issuance of shares, with construction financing anticipated to be provided through a combination of debt, equity and other instruments at the appropriate time. There can be no guarantees that future equity financings will be available on acceptable terms or at all, in which case the Company may need to reduce or delay its longer-term exploration and evaluation plans.

2.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Statement of compliance

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated 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”). They do not include all of the information and footnotes required for annual financial statements prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Board of Directors approved these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for issuance on May 11, 2023.

Significant accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates and judgments, which, by their nature, are uncertain. Significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty are the same as those that applied to the annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS ADOPTED

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

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, and the IFRS Practice Statement 2, Making Materiality Judgements, to provide guidance on the application of materiality judgments to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments to IAS 1 replace the requirement to disclose ‘significant’ accounting policies with a requirement to disclose ‘material’ accounting policies. Guidance and illustrative examples are added in the Practice Statement to assist in the application of materiality concept when making judgments about accounting policy disclosures.

This amendment is effective for annual financial statements for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Management has adopted the requirements of these amendments for the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ending December 31, 2023.

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 carrying values of the Company’s marketable securities, except for warrants, are measured using Level 1 inputs.  Warrants within marketable securities and contingent consideration receivable are measured using Level 3 inputs.

The Company’s risk exposure and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Credit risk

Where judged to be potentially significant, expected credit losses are measured using a present value and probability-weighted model that considers all reasonable and supportable information available without undue cost or effort along with information available concerning past defaults, current conditions and forecasts at the reporting date.

4.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

Credit risk (continued)

IFRS 9, Financial Instruments, requires the recognition of 12 month expected credit losses (the portion of lifetime expected credit losses from default events that are expected within 12 months of the reporting date) if credit risk has not significantly increased since initial recognition (stage 1), lifetime expected credit losses for financial instruments for which the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition (stage 2) or which are credit impaired (stage 3). There are no material expected credit losses with respect to the Company’s financial instruments held at amortized cost.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and other price risk. As at March 31, 2023, the Company is exposed to market risk on its marketable securities. A 10% decrease in the share price of the Company’s marketable securities at March 31, 2023 would have resulted in a $213,000 decrease to the carrying value of the Company’s marketable securities and an increase of the same amount to the Company’s unrealized loss on marketable securities.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities to ensure that it will have sufficient cash to meet liabilities when due. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.

The undiscounted financial liabilities as of March 31, 2023 will mature as follows:

1 year

1-3 years

3-5 years

Greater than

Other risks

In late February 2022, Russia launched a large-scale military attack on Ukraine. The invasion significantly amplified already existing geopolitical tensions among Russia, Ukraine, Europe, NATO and the West, including Canada. In response to the military action by Russia, various countries, including Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom and European Union issued broad-ranging and evolving economic sanctions against Russia. Such sanctions (and any future sanctions) and other actions against Russia may adversely impact, among other things, the global economy and various sectors of the economy, including, but not limited to, financials, energy, metals and mining. Accordingly, the actions discussed above and potential for a wider conflict could increase financial market volatility and cause severe negative effects on regional and global economic markets, either in specific sectors or more broadly.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

Other risks (continued)

Additionally, global stock markets have also experienced great volatility and significant weakening of certain sectors as concerns over inflation and supply chain challenges from COVID-19 continue. Governments and central banks have responded with monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions.

To date, the Company’s operations have not been materially negatively affected by these events, apart from increasing costs. In 2022 and 2023, operations have experienced higher inflation on material inputs. The future impact of Russia’s military action against Ukraine, as well as the effectiveness of government and central bank responses, remain unclear at this time. It is not possible to reliably estimate the duration of the impact, the severity of the consequences, nor the impact, if any, on the financial position and results of the Company for future periods.

Eskay Creek Property, British Columbia, Canada

On October 28, 2022, the Company acquired the Eskay North mineral property in the Golden Triangle area, near Eskay, from Tudor Gold Corp. for share consideration and cash consideration of $1,400,000 payable on the sixth month anniversary of the closing date. In April 2023, the Company made a cash payment of $1,400,000 to Tudor Gold Corp.

Red Chris Properties, British Columbia, Canada

On October 18, 2022, the Company acquired three properties in the Golden Triangle area that are located on either side of Newcrest and Imperial Metals’ Red Chris mine, approximately 20km southeast of the village of Iskut (the “Red Chris Properties”), from Coast Copper Corp. for $3,000,000, payable in six equal payments of $250,000 in cash and $250,000 in common shares. In April 2023, the Company paid $250,000 in cash and issued 30,413 common shares to Coast Copper Corp.

Snip Property, British Columbia, Canada

On October 14, 2021, Hochschild Mining Holdings Limited (“Hochschild”) initiated its right to earn 60% of Snip. Pursuant to the option agreement, to exercise its option, Hochschild would have had to have incurred expenditures of approximately $100 million during the option period.  In April 2023, Hochschild terminated its right to earn 60% of Snip.

CONTINGENCIES

Due to the nature of the Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues such items as liabilities when the amount can be reasonably estimated, and settlement of the matter is probable to require an outflow of future economic benefits from the Company.
