Texas Mineral Resources Corp. 

Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements 

November 30, 2023 

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – GENERAL

 

Exploration-Stage Company

 

Since January 1, 2009, Texas Mineral Resources Corp. (the “Company”) has been classified as an “exploration stage” company for purposes of Regulation S-K Item 1300 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Under SEC Regulation S-K Item 1300, companies engaged in significant mining operations are classified into three categories, referred to as “stages” - exploration, development, and production. Exploration stage includes all companies that do not have established reserves in accordance with Item 1300. Such companies are deemed to be “in the search for mineral deposits.” Notwithstanding the nature and extent of development-type or production-type activities that have been undertaken or completed, a company cannot be classified as a development or production stage company unless it has established reserves in accordance with Item 1300.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Texas Mineral Resources Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the SEC, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended August 31, 2023, dated November 29, 2023 as filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended August 31, 2023 as reported in our annual report on Form 10-K, have been omitted.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Texas Mineral Resources Corp and its proportionate interest in the assets, liabilities, and operations of Round Top Mountain Development Company, LLC (“RTMD”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit from inception through November 30, 2023, of approximately $42,565,000 and has yet to achieve profitable operations, and projects further losses in the development of its business.

 

On November 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital surplus of approximately $862,000; however the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company doesn’t expect to generate revenue from operations in the near future.

 

In accordance with our current projected budget, the Company does not have sufficient capital to fund its share of total cash calls required under the RTMD operating agreement (“Operating Agreement”) as well as expected general and administrative expenses during the next twelve months. Failure by the Company to fund required cash calls to RTMD would result in dilution to its then current RTMD ownership interest (19.611% as of November 30, 2023). Accordingly, the Company will be required to either raise additional capital to fund its obligations during the next twelve months or elect to dilute its ownership interest in RTMD. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary capital to fund its cash calls and expected general and administrative expenses. Total cash calls in the amount of $362,000 were requested during the first fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2023. The Company provided notices of non-contribution stating that it would not contribute the $362,000 which then became the shortfall amount resulting in dilution of the Company’s ownership interest. Based on these factors, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt – Debit with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock as a single equity instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) calculation in certain areas. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

NOTE 3 – JOINT VENTURE ARRANGEMENTS

 

The Company accounts for its interest in RTMD using the proportionate consolidation method, which is an exception available to entities in the extractive industries, thereby recognizing its pro-rata share of the assets, liabilities, and operations of RTMD in the appropriate classifications in the financial statements.

 

NOTE 4 – MINERAL PROPERTIES

 

The following discussion under ” – RTMD Mineral Properties” provides a history of the ownership and obligations of the Round Top Project, of which we, as of November 30, 2023, held a 19.611% proportionate interest and USA Rare Earth LLC (“USARE”) held an 80.389% proportionate interest.

 

RTMD Mineral Properties

 

August 2010 Lease

 

On August 17, 2010, the Company executed a new mining lease with the Texas General Land Office covering Sections 7 and 18 of Township 7, Block 71 and Section 12 of Block 72, covering approximately 860 acres at Round Top Mountain in Hudspeth County, Texas. The mining lease issued by the Texas General Land Office provides for the right to explore, produce, develop, mine, extract, mill, remove, and market rare earth elements, all other base and precious metals, industrial minerals and construction materials and all other minerals excluding oil, gas, coal, lignite, sulfur, salt, and potash. The term of the lease is nineteen years so long as minerals are produced in paying quantities.

 

Under the terms of the lease, Round Top is obligated to pay the State of Texas a total lease bonus of $142,518. The Company paid $44,718 upon the execution of the lease, and Round Top will be required to pay the remaining $97,800 upon submission of a supplemental plan of operations to conduct mining. Upon the sale of any minerals removed from the Round Top Project, Round Top will pay the State of Texas a $500,000 minimum advance royalty. Thereafter, if paying quantities of minerals are obtained, Round Top will be required to pay the State of Texas a production royalty equal to eight percent of the market value of uranium and other fissionable materials removed and sold from the Round Top Project and six and one quarter percent of the market value of all other minerals removed and sold. If paying quantities have not been obtained, Round Top may pay additional delay rental fees to extend the term of the lease for successive one (1) year periods pursuant to the following schedule:

    Total
Amount
 
September 2, 2020 – 2024   $ 150     $ 134,155  
September 2, 2025 – 2029     200       178,873  

 

In August 2023, Round Top paid the State of Texas a delay rental to extend the term of the lease in an amount equal to $134,155

 

November 2011 Lease

 

On November 1, 2011, the Company executed a mining lease with the State of Texas covering approximately 90 acres of land that is adjacent to the August 2010 Lease. Under the lease, the Company paid the State of Texas a lease bonus of $20,700 upon the execution of the lease. Upon the sale of minerals removed from the Round Top Project, Round Top will be required to pay the State of Texas a $50,000 minimum advance royalty. Thereafter, if paying quantities of minerals are obtained, Round Top will be required to pay the State of Texas a production royalty equal to eight percent of the market value of uranium and other fissionable materials removed and sold from the Round Top Project and six and one quarter percent of the market value of all other minerals. If paying quantities have not been obtained, Round Top may pay additional delay rental fees to extend the term of the lease for successive one (1) year periods pursuant to the following schedule:

In August 2023, Round Top paid the State of Texas a delay rental to extend the term of the lease in an amount equal to $13,500.

 

March 2013 Lease

 

On March 6, 2013, the Company purchased the surface lease at the Round Top Project, known as the West Lease, from the Southwest Wildlife and Range Foundation (since renamed the Rio Grande Foundation) for $500,000 cash and 1,063,830 shares of common stock valued at $500,000. The Company also agreed to support the Foundation through an annual payment of $45,000 for ten years to support conservation efforts within the Rio Grande Basin. The West Lease comprises approximately 54,990 acres. The purchase of the surface lease provides unrestricted surface access for the potential development and mining of the Round Top Project.

 

October 2014 Surface Option and Water Lease

 

On October 29, 2014, the Company announced the execution of agreements with the Texas General Land Office securing the option to purchase the surface rights covering the potential Round Top project mine and plant areas and, separately, a groundwater lease. The option to purchase the surface rights covers approximately 5,670 acres over the mining lease. Round Top may exercise the option for all or part of the option acreage at any time during the sixteen-year primary term of the mineral lease. The option can be maintained through annual payments of $10,000. The purchase price will be the appraised value of the surface at the time of option exercise. All annual payments have been made as of the date of this filing.

 

The ground water lease secures the right to develop the ground water within a 13,120-acre lease area located approximately 4 miles from the Round Top deposit. The lease terms include an annual minimum production payment of $5,000 prior to production of water for the operation. After initiation of production Round Top will pay $0.95 per thousand gallons or $20,000 annually, whichever is greater. This lease remains in effect so long as the mineral lease is in effect.

 

Santa Fe Gold Corporation/Alhambra Project

 

In November 2021, the Company entered into a mineral exploration and option agreement with Santa Fe Gold Corporation (“Santa Fe”). Under the option agreement, the Company and Santa Fe plan to pursue, negotiate and subsequently enter into a joint venture agreement to jointly explore and develop a target silver property to be selected by the Company among patented and unpatented mining claims held by Santa Fe within the Black Hawk Mining District in Grant County, New Mexico. Completion of a joint venture agreement, if any, is subject to the successful outcome of a multi-phase exploration plan leading to a bankable feasibility study to be undertaken in the near future by the Company. Under the contemplated terms of the proposed joint venture agreement, the Company would be project operator and initially own 50.5% of the joint venture while Santa Fe would initially own 49.5%. Additional terms of the joint venture are expected to be negotiated between the Company and Santa Fe in the future. 

 

Under the terms of the option agreement, the Company plans to conduct a district-wide evaluation among the patented and unpatented claims held by Santa Fe, consisting of geologic mapping, sampling, trenching, radiometric surveying, geophysics, drilling and/or other methods as warranted. Based on the district-wide evaluation, the Company will designate one 80-acre tract as the “project area” and commence detailed exploration work. The property covered in the option agreement is approximately 1,300 acres and covers approximately 75% of the known mining district. The area to be studied also includes a two-mile radius “area of interest.” The option agreement provides the Company with the right to designate any properties within the “area of interest” as “project area” properties.

 

The term of the option is for so long as the Company continues to conduct exploration activities in the Project Area and can be exercised on 60 days’ notice to Santa Fe.

In October 2023, we issued 56,537 shares of common stock related to director fees earned and expensed during the year ended August 31, 2023.

 

During the quarter ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized stock compensation and a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital in the amount of $46,504 for director’s fees earned during the quarter. The Company plans to issue the related 147,775 shares of common stock in January 2024.

 

During the quarter ended November 30, 2023, the Company granted a total of 30,000 stock options, with an exercise price of $1.97 per share and a fair value of $11,330 on the date of grant to a consultant. The fair value of the options was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average assumptions used to calculate the fair market value are as follows: (i) risk-free interest rate of 4.23% (ii) estimated volatility of 425.35% (iii) dividend yield of 0.00% and (iv) expected life of all options of 5 years. The Company recognized the full $11,330 as compensation expense during the three months ended November 30, 2023.

 

NOTE 6 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

January Cash Call

 

In December 2023, we notified USARE that we had elected not to contribute our January cash call of $20,025 in cash, but had elected to reduce our RTMD ownership interest from 19.611% to 19.595% pursuant to the dilution mechanism in the June 2023 amended Operating Agreement.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, many of which are described in greater detail elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, as well as in the Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2023, there can be no assurance that the events predicted in forward-looking statements contained in the Quarterly Report will in fact transpire.

 

An investment in our common stock involves significant risks, including the risk of a loss of your entire investment. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described herein before purchasing our common stock. The risks set forth herein are not the only ones facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties may exist and others could arise that could also adversely affect our business, financial condition, operations and prospects. If any of the risks set forth herein actually materialize, our business, financial condition, prospects and operations would suffer. In such event, the value of our common stock would decline, and you could lose all or a substantial portion of your investment.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit from inception through November 30, 2023, of approximately $42,565,000 and has yet to achieve profitable operations, and projects further losses in the development of its business.

 

On November 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital surplus of approximately $862,000, however the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for a discussion of our liquidity and capital needs for the next twelve months.

 

Overview

 

We are a mining company engaged in the business of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. We currently own a 19.595% membership interest in RTMD (as of November 30, 2023 we held a 19.611% membership interest in RTMD), which entity holds two mineral property leases with the Texas General Land Office to explore and develop a 950-acre rare earths project located in Hudspeth County, Texas, (referred to as the “Round Top Project” or the “Project”). The leases, originally signed with primary terms of approximately 19 and 18 years, each currently have remaining terms of approximately eight years and provisions for automatic renewal if Round Top is in production. RTMD also holds prospecting permits covering 9,345 acres adjacent to the Round Top Project. The strategy of RTMD is to develop a metallurgical process to concentrate or otherwise extract the metals from the Round Top Project’s rhyolite, conduct additional engineering, design, geotechnical work, and permitting necessary for a bankable feasibility study and then to extract mineral resources from the Round Top Project. The Round Top Project has not established as of the date hereof that any of the properties contain any probable mineral reserves or proven mineral reserves under Item 1300 of Regulation S-K.

 

Rare earth elements (“REE”) are a group of chemically similar elements that usually are found together in nature – they are referred to as the “lanthanide series.” These individual elements have a variety of characteristics that are critical in a wide range of technologies, products, and applications and are critical inputs in existing and emerging applications. Without these elements, multiple high-tech technologies would not be possible. These technologies include:

 

cell phones,

 

computer and television screens,

 

battery-operated vehicles,

 

clean energy technologies, such as hybrid and electric vehicles and wind power turbines,

 

fiber optics, lasers and hard disk drives,

 

numerous defense applications, such as guidance and control systems and global positioning systems, and

 

advanced water treatment technology for use in industrial, military.

 

Because of these applications, global demand for REE is projected to steadily increase due to continuing growth in existing applications and increased innovation and development of new end uses. Interest in developing resources domestically has become a strategic necessity as there is limited production of these elements outside of China. Our ability to raise additional funds to continue to fund our participation interest in the Round Top Project may be impacted by future prices for REEs.

 

The Company accounts for its interest in RTMD using the proportionate consolidation method, which is an exception available to entities in the extractive industries, thereby recognizing its pro-rate share of the assets, liabilities, and operations of RTMD in the appropriate classifications in the financial statements.

USA Rare Earth Agreement

 

In August 2018, the Company and Morzev Pty. Ltd. (“Morzev”) entered into an agreement (the “2018 Option Agreement”) whereby Morzev was granted the exclusive right to earn and acquire a 70% interest in the Round Top Project by financing $10 million of expenditures in connection with the Project, increasable to an 80% interest for an additional $3 million payment to the Company. In August 2019, the Company and USA Rare Earth, LLC (“USARE”) entered into an amended and restated option agreement as further amended in June 2020 (the “2019 Option Agreement” and collectively with the 2018 Option Agreement, the “Option Agreement”), whereby the Company restated its agreement to grant USARE the exclusive right to earn and acquire a 70% interest, increasable to an 80% interest, in Round Top. In May 2021, and in accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement, the Company and USARE entered into a contribution agreement (“Contribution Agreement”) whereby each of the Company and USARE contributed assets to Round Top Mountain Development, LLC (“RTMD”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in exchange for their initial ownership interests in RTMD, of which the Company initially owned a membership interest equating to 20% of Round Top and USARE initially owned a membership interest equating to 80% of Round Top. Concurrently therewith, the Company and USARE, as the two members, entered into a limited liability company agreement (“Operating Agreement”) governing the operations of RTMD which contains customary and industry standard terms as contemplated by the Option Agreement. USARE is the manager of RTMD.

 

Upon entry into the Contribution Agreement, the Company assigned the following contracts and assets to RTMD in exchange for its 20% membership interest in RTMD:

 

the assignment and assumption agreement with respect to the mineral leases from the Company to RTMD;

 

the assignment and assumption agreement with respect to the surface lease from the Company to RTMD;

 

the assignment and assumption agreement with respect to the surface purchase option from the Company to RTMD;

 

the assignment and assumption agreement with respect to the water lease from the Company to RTMD; and

 

the bill of sale and assignment agreement of existing data with respect to RTMD owned by the Company.

 

and USARE assigned the following assets to RTMD (or the Company, as applicable) for its 80% membership interest in RTMD:

 

cash to RTMD to continue to fund Round Top Project operations in the amount of approximately $3,761,750 comprising the balance of the $10 million required expenditure to earn a 70% interest in RTMD;

 

cash in the amount of $3 million to the Company upon exercise of the USARE option to acquire from the Company an additional 10% interest in RTMD, resulting in the aggregate ownership interest of 80% in RTMD;

 

bill of sale and assignment agreement of the Pilot Plant to RTMD;

 

the assignment and assumption regarding relevant contracts and permits with respect to RTMD; and

 

bill of sale and assignment agreement of existing data and intellectual property owned by USARE to RTMD.

 

On June 26, 2023, the Company, USARE and the manager amended and restated the Operating Agreement and the following material amendments to the Operating Agreement were adopted:

 

Cash Calls

 

On the basis of the adopted program and budget then in effect, the manager will submit to each member monthly cash calls at least 10 days before the last day of each month, and within 10 days of receipt, (a) USARE will pay to RTMD, as an additional capital contribution, its proportionate share of the estimated cash requirements based on its interest and (b) the Company will either (i) pay to RTMD, as an additional capital contribution, its proportionate share of the estimated cash requirements based on its interest, or (ii) deliver to RTMD a written notice indicating what amount, if any, of the applicable estimated cash requirements that the Company will contribute (the “Notice of Non-Contribution”). Failure by the Company to deliver payment of its proportionate share of the estimated cash requirements, as an additional capital contribution, or to deliver a Notice of Non-Contribution within the 10 day period shall automatically be considered a “Deemed Non-Contribution” and shall have the same effect as if the Company provided a timely Notice of Non-Contribution with respect to non-contribution of its entire proportionate share of the applicable cash call.

 

Remedies for Failure to Meet Cash Calls

 

Non-Contribution. Capital contributions only will be made to fund programs and budgets. If the Company does not contribute all or any portion of any additional capital contribution that it is required to contribute pursuant to a Notice of Non-Contribution or a Deemed Non-Contribution (such unfunded amount shall be deemed the “Shortfall Amount”), then USARE shall fund the entire Shortfall Amount within 5 business days after the Notice of Non-Contribution or Deemed Non- Contribution.

 

14

 

 

Dilution. Upon the contribution of the Shortfall Amount by USARE, the interests of the members will be recalculated based on the adjustment provision set forth below in the sub-heading “– Adjustment of Interests”.

 

Maximum Dilution. The dilution of the Company shall not fall below a 3% interest in RTMD (the “Minimum Percentage Interest”). Upon the contribution by USARE of a Shortfall Amount which otherwise would result in a dilution of the Company below the Minimum Percentage Interest, USARE will receive a priority distribution of available cash, in addition to a distribution of available cash to which USARE otherwise is entitled to receive as a result of its proportionate additional capital contribution pursuant to the applicable cash call request, up to the Shortfall Amount that would have resulted in the Company’s interest being further diluted but for the Minimum Percentage Interest (the “Priority Distribution”). The Priority Distribution will continue until USARE has been reimbursed for its contribution of the Shortfall Amount that would have resulted in the Company having an interest below the Minimum Percentage Interest, after which time the members shall receive distributions of available cash pro rata in proportion to their respective interests.

 

Adjustment of Interests.

 

If USARE contributes the Shortfall Amount, then the then current interest of the Company will be reduced (subject to the Minimum Percentage Interest), effective as of each cash call under an additional capital contribution for the applicable program and budget, by a fraction, expressed as a percentage:

 

the numerator of which equals the Shortfall Amount actually funded by USARE; and

 

the denominator of which equals the market capitalization of the Company.

 

Distributions

 

Cash in excess of authorized reserves will be distributed to the members pro-rata in proportion to their respective interests on a periodic basis as determined by the management committee. RTMD will be required to make tax distributions to each member. Once USARE has been paid the Priority Distribution, if applicable, all distributions made in connection with the sale or exchange of all or substantially all of RTMD’s assets and all distributions made in connection with the liquidation of RTMD will be made to the members pro-rata in accordance with their respective interests.

 

Other material terms of the Operating Agreement that remain unchanged are as follows:

 

Management.

 

A management committee will make the major decisions of RTMD, such as approval of the respective program and budget, and the manager will implement such decisions. The management committee consists of three representatives of the members, with two being appointed by USARE and one by the Company (initially being Dan Gorski). The representatives vote the ownership percentage interests of their appointing member.

 

Management Committee Meetings.

 

Meetings will be held every three months unless otherwise agreed. For matters before the management committee that require a vote, voting is by simple majority except for certain “major decisions” that require a unanimous vote. So long as the Company maintains a 15% or greater ownership interest, the nine decisions identified in the bullet points below require unanimous approval. If the Company’s ownership interest falls below 15%, the number of unanimous decisions is reduced to five (being the first five bullet points below). If the Company is acquired by a REE mining company or sells its ownership interest to a REE mining company, in each case who elects a majority of the Company’s board, this unanimous approval requirement can be suspended by USARE, at its option. The major decisions requiring unanimous approval, as set forth above, are:

 

approval of an amendment to any program and budget that causes the program and budget to increase by 15% or more, except for emergencies;

 

other than purchase money security interests or other security interests in RTMD equipment to finance the acquisition or lease of RTMD equipment used in operations, the consummation of a project financing or the incurrence by RTMD of any indebtedness for borrowed money that requires the guarantee by any member of any obligations of RTMD;

 

substitution of a member under certain circumstances and dissolution of RTMD;

 

the issuance of an ownership interest or other equity interest in RTMD, or the admission of any person as a new member of RTMD, other than in connection with the exercise of a right of first offer by a member;

 

the redemption of all or any portion of an ownership interest, except for limited circumstances provided for in the Operating Agreement;

 

15

 

 

a decision to grant authorization for RTMD to file a petition for relief under any chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code, to consent to such relief in any involuntary petition filed against RTMD by any third party, or to admit in writing any insolvency of RTMD or inability to pay its debts as they become due, or to consent to any receivership of RTMD;

 

acquisition or disposition of significant mineral rights, other real property or water rights outside of the area of interest as set forth in the Operating Agreement or outside of the ordinary course of business;

 

the merger of RTMD into or with any other entity; and

 

the sale of all or substantially all of RTMD’s assets.

 

Manager.

 

The manager will manage, direct and control operations in accordance with program and budget, will prepare and present to the management committee a proposed program and budget, and will generally oversee and implement all of the day to day activities of RTMD. The manager will conduct necessary equipment and materials procurement and property and equipment maintenance activities, with all operations to be conducted in accordance with adopted program and budget.

 

Permitted Transfers.

 

Certain transfers are permitted under the Operating Agreement, including transfers to affiliates or through certain mergers or other forms of business reorganization. A member may also encumber its ownership interest provided that if the ownership interest is foreclosed upon, the other member has a pre-emptive right to acquire such ownership interest at the foreclosure sale. If the transfer is a “permitted transfer,” the transferee is automatically admitted as a member; otherwise unless the other member agrees, the transferee is only an economic interest holder with no voting or other rights held by a member.

 

Right of First Offer.

 

If a member desires to transfer all or a portion of its ownership interest to a third party (other than a permitted transfer), it may do that without the consent of the other member so long as it gives the other member the first right to purchase its ownership interest on the same terms. If the other member does not elect to purchase the ownership interest on such terms, the member may sell its ownership interest on such terms and the transfer will be a permitted transfer.

 

Drag-Along Right.

 

If USARE accepts a bona fide offer to purchase its entire ownership interest and all other rights under the Operating Agreement from an unrelated third party, the Company will then be obligated to sell its entire ownership interest and all other rights under the Operating Agreement to the unrelated third party on the same terms and conditions as are accepted by USARE.

 

Santa Fe Gold Corporation/Alhambra Project

 

In November 2021, the Company entered into a mineral exploration and option agreement with Santa Fe Gold Corporation (“Santa Fe”). Under the option agreement, the Company and Santa Fe plan to pursue, negotiate and subsequently enter into a joint venture agreement to jointly explore and develop a target silver property to be selected by the Company among patented and unpatented mining claims held by Santa Fe within the Black Hawk Mining District in Grant County, New Mexico. Completion of a joint venture agreement, if any, is subject to the successful outcome of a multi-phase exploration plan leading to a bankable feasibility study to be undertaken in the near future by the Company. Under the contemplated terms of the proposed joint venture agreement, the Company would be project operator and initially own 50.5% of the joint venture while Santa Fe would initially own 49.5%. Additional terms of the joint venture are expected to be negotiated between the Company and Santa Fe in the future. There can be no assurance that the Company and Santa Fe will enter into a formal join venture agreement.

 

Under the terms of the option agreement, the Company plans to conduct a district-wide evaluation among the patented and unpatented claims held by Santa Fe, consisting of geologic mapping, sampling, trenching, radiometric surveying, geophysics, drilling and/or other methods as warranted. Based on the district-wide evaluation, the Company would designate one 80-acre tract as the “project area” and commence detailed exploration work. The property covered in the option agreement is approximately 1,300 acres and covers approximately 75% of the known mining district. The area to be studied also includes a two-mile radius “area of interest.” The option agreement provides the Company with the right to designate any properties within the “area of interest” as “project area” properties. The term of the option is for so long as the Company continues to conduct exploration activities in the Project Area and can be exercised on 60 days’ notice to Santa Fe.

 

The Black Hawk district and the Alhambra mine, in particular, are historically known for the occurrence of native silver lenses, randomly distributed in narrow carbonate veins. The “ore shoots” are small, ranging from ten feet to seventy feet along the vertical axis and five to fifty along the horizontal axis. We believe that the excessive cost of locating and mining these small “ore shoots” has been the principal reason for the inability to sustain a mining operation in this district.

 

16

 

 

Because of the high native silver content of ore historically mined in the district, we have considered the use of geophysics to locate these small lenses and pods, with the goal to make potential development and mining feasible. We are working with a geophysical service provider and consultants, and have completed four phases of electromagnetic surveying in the immediate area of the Alhambra mine. The method producing the most meaningful geological data is a method called NANOTEM by its developer, Zonge International. This technique was developed to locate small electrically conducting objects such as pipes, underground tanks and unexploded ordinance. Working with consultants and with Zonge International this technique was modified and applied to the immediate area of the Alhambra mine. Results are encouraging and plans have been made to conduct a diamond drilling campaign to test the electrically conductive anomalies detected to date. This drilling is sited to test these “anomalies” within the geologically favorable area along the vein immediately to the north of the Alhambra mine workings.

 

If the diamond drilling yields positive results, the anticipated next phase will be to enter the mine and extend the one hundred twelve foot level into the area drilled. Work to be done upon re-entry of the mine will be determined by diamond drilling results and conditions encountered in the mine.

 

Because the desired aim of the geophysics and diamond drilling is to gain the confidence to re-enter the mine, very careful consideration has to be given to the permitting of this project. The permitting plan being submitted goes beyond the permits required for a simple drilling program and seeks to anticipate such factors as shaft rehabilitation, water management, road access and later, mine development.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

On November 30, 2023, our accumulated deficit was approximately $42,565,000 and our cash position was approximately $904,000. We had a working capital surplus of approximately $862,000. Round Top has not commenced commercial production on the Round Top Project. We have no revenues from operations and anticipate we will have no operating revenues until we place one or more of our properties into production. All properties are in the exploration stage.

 

During the fiscal year ending August 31, 2023 and the three months ended November 30, 2023, we funded approximately $386,000 and $0, respectively, to RTMD pursuant to our funding obligations set forth in the Operating Agreement. In lieu of funding $362,000 of cash calls in September through November 2023, we incurred dilution in our membership interest from 19.803% to 19.611% at November 30, 2023. In lieu of funding the January 2024 cash call of $20,025 in December 2023, we incurred dilution in our membership interest from 19.611% to 19.595% as of the date of this filing.

 

During the current fiscal year, USARE has advised us that Round Top is expected to fund expenditures of approximately $15 million to $20 million to optimize the leaching and developing of the CIX/CIC processing of the Round Top Project. Initial process design work will be carried out at USARE’s facility in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. Pending completion of the initial process development, this facility will either be relocated to or replicated at USARE’s Oklahoma facility where a pilot plant is expected to be established. It is estimated that the Round Top Project will require additional time and further expenditure to complete a bankable feasibility study. Our current expected funding obligation is projected to be between approximately $3 million to $4 million of the expected expenditures by Round Top during our current fiscal year, and we currently expect to incur dilution to our Round Top membership interest in lieu of funding the Round Top cash calls in cash. It is possible that the Round Top Budget could increase in this current fiscal year and it should be expected that the Round Top budget will be higher in future periods. The failure of us to raise capital to fund our cash call commitments in this current fiscal year and thereafter will result in dilution of our Round Top membership interest, which could be significant.

 

We do not have sufficient cash on hand to fund our portion of the Round Top budget during our current fiscal year. Therefore, we will need to raise additional capital to fund our portion of the Round Top budget if we elect not to dilute our Round Top membership interest. If we elect to dilute our Round Top membership interest (through choice or as a result of the failure to raise capital), such event will result in the dilution to our Round Top membership interest. The most likely source of future financing presently available to us is through the sale of our securities. Any sale of our shares of Common Stock will result in dilution of equity ownership to existing stockholders. This means that if we sell shares of Common Stock, more shares will be outstanding and each existing stockholder will own a smaller percentage of the shares then outstanding. Moreover, the actual or perceived sale of additional shares of our Common Stock to raise capital could further depress the price of our Common Stock which could adversely impact our ability to raise capital, result in more dilution to be incurred by existing stockholders, and possibly cause us to curtail or cease our operations. Alternatively, we may rely on debt financing and assume debt obligations that require us to make substantial interest and capital payments. Also, we may issue or grant warrants or options in the future pursuant to which additional shares of Common Stock may be issued. Exercise of such warrants or options will result in dilution of equity ownership to our existing stockholders. We have no firm commitment with respect to obtaining debt or equity financing and, accordingly, we will be reliant upon a best efforts financing strategy. Accordingly, there is no assurance that we will be able to raise necessary capital, if any, to fund our portion of the Round Top Budget and our general administrative expenses during the fiscal year ending August 31, 2024, the failure of which could ultimately cause us to curtail or cease our operations.

Results of Operations

 

Three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022

 

General and Revenue

 

We had no operating revenues during the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022. We are not currently profitable. As a result of ongoing operating losses, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $42,565,000 million as of November 30, 2023.

 

Operating expenses, other income (expenses) and resulting losses from Operations.

 

We incurred exploration costs for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, in the amount of approximately $0 and $231,000, respectively. During the three months ended November 30, 2023, we elected not to fund our RTMD cash call obligation resulting in dilution of our ownership interest. The expenditures for the three months ended November 30, 2022 were primarily for our obligation to fund our portion of the cash requirements set forth by our joint venture agreement with USARE and for project contractors for our New Mexico mining exploration. Currently most of the expenditures associated with the USARE joint venture are funded by our joint venture partner, USARE.

 

Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, respectively, were approximately $233,000 and $342,000. For the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, this amount included approximately $58,000 and $104,000, respectively, in stock-based compensation to directors and common stock and stock options to outside consultants. The remaining expenditures were primarily for payroll and related taxes and benefits, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses necessary for our operations.

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022, we earned approximately $11,000 and $5,000 in interest income from depository accounts.

 

We had losses from operations for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022 totaling approximately $233,000 and $574,000, respectively. We had a net losses for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and November 30, 2022 totaling approximately $221,000 and $568,000, respectively.

 

Investment Company Act Exclusion

 

Section 3(c)(9) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), provides that a company “substantially all of whose business consists of owning or holding oil, gas, or other mineral royalties or leases, or fractional interests therein, or certificates of interest or participation in or investment contracts relative to such royalties, leases, or fractional interests” is not an investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. The Company has determined that this exemption applies to it giving consideration to the following four factors:

 

whether the exempted activity constitutes “substantially all” of our business;

 

The Company has owned mineral leases since 2010, all of our business to date has been comprised of owning and developing the mineral leases and, after the May 2021 “farm-down” of its 100% interest in the mineral leases, all of our business continues to be comprised of owning and holding a certificate of interest and a participation in the mineral leases owned by RTMD. The Company’s mineral assets historically, as well as the value of the certificate of interest at November 30, 2023, have been booked at cost in accordance with GAAP. We have an accumulated deficit of approximately $42.6 million at November 30, 2023 as a result of owning and developing the Round Top Project.

 

whether we own or trade in the mineral leases;

 

The Company has owned the mineral leases, which are now owned by RTMD, since 2010 and neither the Company nor RTMD is in the business of dealing or trading in the mineral leases.

 

what qualifies as an eligible asset for purposes of the exception; and

 

The statute specifically references mineral leases and our mineral leases were owned by the Company and are now owned by RTMD. In accordance with Regulation S-K Item 1300 that governs disclosure by registrants engaged in mining operations, the definition of mineral resource is “a concentration or occurrence of material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust.” Our rare earth elements and minerals underlying the mineral leases meet that definition, as well as does coal, silver, gold and other material mined for economic value by registrants involved in mining operations. The SEC staff has recognized that an excepted entity can also engage in related business activities such as exploring, developing, and operating the eligible assets.

 

18

 

 

what qualifies as a “certificate of interest or participation in” or an “investment contract relative to” the eligible assets.

 

The statute allows a Company to own a “certificate of interest” or “participation in” the mineral leases. The SEC staff has recognized that limited partnership interests and/or similar securities issued by entities that themselves own the leases constitute “certificate of interest or participation in or investment contracts” related to such leases. The Company’s 19.595% membership interest in RTMD constitutes a “certificate of interest” and a “participation in” the mineral leases that are owned by RTMD.

 

The Company intends to continue to conduct its business operations in order to continue to be excluded from the definition of an “investment company” under the 1940 Act.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Preparation of financial statements requires management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingencies. Management bases its estimates on various assumptions and historical experience, which are believed to be reasonable; however, due to the inherent nature of estimates, actual results may differ significantly due to changed conditions or assumptions. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material. Management believes that the following critical accounting estimates and judgments have a significant impact on our financial statements; Valuation of options granted to directors, officers and consultants using the Black-Scholes model.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a – 15(e) and Rule 15d – 15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, and in light of the material weakness existing in our internal controls over financial reporting as of August 31, 2023 (as described in greater detail in our annual report on From 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2023), the CEO and CFO have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in providing reasonable assurance that: (i) information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) material information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow for accurate and timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

 

Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the recently enacted Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (The “Dodd-Frank Act”), issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC information regarding specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
GENERAL

NOTE 1 – GENERAL

 

Exploration-Stage Company

 

Since January 1, 2009, Texas Mineral Resources Corp. (the “Company”) has been classified as an “exploration stage” company for purposes of Regulation S-K Item 1300 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Under SEC Regulation S-K Item 1300, companies engaged in significant mining operations are classified into three categories, referred to as “stages” - exploration, development, and production. Exploration stage includes all companies that do not have established reserves in accordance with Item 1300. Such companies are deemed to be “in the search for mineral deposits.” Notwithstanding the nature and extent of development-type or production-type activities that have been undertaken or completed, a company cannot be classified as a development or production stage company unless it has established reserves in accordance with Item 1300.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Texas Mineral Resources Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the SEC, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended August 31, 2023, dated November 29, 2023 as filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended August 31, 2023 as reported in our annual report on Form 10-K, have been omitted.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Texas Mineral Resources Corp and its proportionate interest in the assets, liabilities, and operations of Round Top Mountain Development Company, LLC (“RTMD”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit from inception through November 30, 2023, of approximately $42,565,000 and has yet to achieve profitable operations, and projects further losses in the development of its business.

 

On November 30, 2023, the Company had a working capital surplus of approximately $862,000; however the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company doesn’t expect to generate revenue from operations in the near future.

 

In accordance with our current projected budget, the Company does not have sufficient capital to fund its share of total cash calls required under the RTMD operating agreement (“Operating Agreement”) as well as expected general and administrative expenses during the next twelve months. Failure by the Company to fund required cash calls to RTMD would result in dilution to its then current RTMD ownership interest (19.611% as of November 30, 2023). Accordingly, the Company will be required to either raise additional capital to fund its obligations during the next twelve months or elect to dilute its ownership interest in RTMD. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary capital to fund its cash calls and expected general and administrative expenses. Total cash calls in the amount of $362,000 were requested during the first fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2023. The Company provided notices of non-contribution stating that it would not contribute the $362,000 which then became the shortfall amount resulting in dilution of the Company’s ownership interest. Based on these factors, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt – Debit with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock as a single equity instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) calculation in certain areas. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 4 – MINERAL PROPERTIES

 

The following discussion under ” – RTMD Mineral Properties” provides a history of the ownership and obligations of the Round Top Project, of which we, as of November 30, 2023, held a 19.611% proportionate interest and USA Rare Earth LLC (“USARE”) held an 80.389% proportionate interest.

 

RTMD Mineral Properties

 

August 2010 Lease

 

On August 17, 2010, the Company executed a new mining lease with the Texas General Land Office covering Sections 7 and 18 of Township 7, Block 71 and Section 12 of Block 72, covering approximately 860 acres at Round Top Mountain in Hudspeth County, Texas. The mining lease issued by the Texas General Land Office provides for the right to explore, produce, develop, mine, extract, mill, remove, and market rare earth elements, all other base and precious metals, industrial minerals and construction materials and all other minerals excluding oil, gas, coal, lignite, sulfur, salt, and potash. The term of the lease is nineteen years so long as minerals are produced in paying quantities.

 

Under the terms of the lease, Round Top is obligated to pay the State of Texas a total lease bonus of $142,518. The Company paid $44,718 upon the execution of the lease, and Round Top will be required to pay the remaining $97,800 upon submission of a supplemental plan of operations to conduct mining. Upon the sale of any minerals removed from the Round Top Project, Round Top will pay the State of Texas a $500,000 minimum advance royalty. Thereafter, if paying quantities of minerals are obtained, Round Top will be required to pay the State of Texas a production royalty equal to eight percent of the market value of uranium and other fissionable materials removed and sold from the Round Top Project and six and one quarter percent of the market value of all other minerals removed and sold. If paying quantities have not been obtained, Round Top may pay additional delay rental fees to extend the term of the lease for successive one (1) year periods pursuant to the following schedule:

September 2, 2020 – 2024   $ 150     $ 134,155  
September 2, 2025 – 2029     200       178,873  

 

In August 2023, Round Top paid the State of Texas a delay rental to extend the term of the lease in an amount equal to $134,155

 

November 2011 Lease

 

On November 1, 2011, the Company executed a mining lease with the State of Texas covering approximately 90 acres of land that is adjacent to the August 2010 Lease. Under the lease, the Company paid the State of Texas a lease bonus of $20,700 upon the execution of the lease. Upon the sale of minerals removed from the Round Top Project, Round Top will be required to pay the State of Texas a $50,000 minimum advance royalty. Thereafter, if paying quantities of minerals are obtained, Round Top will be required to pay the State of Texas a production royalty equal to eight percent of the market value of uranium and other fissionable materials removed and sold from the Round Top Project and six and one quarter percent of the market value of all other minerals. If paying quantities have not been obtained, Round Top may pay additional delay rental fees to extend the term of the lease for successive one (1) year periods pursuant to the following schedule:

 

    Per Acre

In August 2023, Round Top paid the State of Texas a delay rental to extend the term of the lease in an amount equal to $13,500.

 

March 2013 Lease

 

On March 6, 2013, the Company purchased the surface lease at the Round Top Project, known as the West Lease, from the Southwest Wildlife and Range Foundation (since renamed the Rio Grande Foundation) for $500,000 cash and 1,063,830 shares of common stock valued at $500,000. The Company also agreed to support the Foundation through an annual payment of $45,000 for ten years to support conservation efforts within the Rio Grande Basin. The West Lease comprises approximately 54,990 acres. The purchase of the surface lease provides unrestricted surface access for the potential development and mining of the Round Top Project.

 

October 2014 Surface Option and Water Lease

 

On October 29, 2014, the Company announced the execution of agreements with the Texas General Land Office securing the option to purchase the surface rights covering the potential Round Top project mine and plant areas and, separately, a groundwater lease. The option to purchase the surface rights covers approximately 5,670 acres over the mining lease. Round Top may exercise the option for all or part of the option acreage at any time during the sixteen-year primary term of the mineral lease. The option can be maintained through annual payments of $10,000. The purchase price will be the appraised value of the surface at the time of option exercise. All annual payments have been made as of the date of this filing.

 

The ground water lease secures the right to develop the ground water within a 13,120-acre lease area located approximately 4 miles from the Round Top deposit. The lease terms include an annual minimum production payment of $5,000 prior to production of water for the operation. After initiation of production Round Top will pay $0.95 per thousand gallons or $20,000 annually, whichever is greater. This lease remains in effect so long as the mineral lease is in effect.

 

Santa Fe Gold Corporation/Alhambra Project

 

In November 2021, the Company entered into a mineral exploration and option agreement with Santa Fe Gold Corporation (“Santa Fe”). Under the option agreement, the Company and Santa Fe plan to pursue, negotiate and subsequently enter into a joint venture agreement to jointly explore and develop a target silver property to be selected by the Company among patented and unpatented mining claims held by Santa Fe within the Black Hawk Mining District in Grant County, New Mexico. Completion of a joint venture agreement, if any, is subject to the successful outcome of a multi-phase exploration plan leading to a bankable feasibility study to be undertaken in the near future by the Company. Under the contemplated terms of the proposed joint venture agreement, the Company would be project operator and initially own 50.5% of the joint venture while Santa Fe would initially own 49.5%. Additional terms of the joint venture are expected to be negotiated between the Company and Santa Fe in the future. 

 

Under the terms of the option agreement, the Company plans to conduct a district-wide evaluation among the patented and unpatented claims held by Santa Fe, consisting of geologic mapping, sampling, trenching, radiometric surveying, geophysics, drilling and/or other methods as warranted. Based on the district-wide evaluation, the Company will designate one 80-acre tract as the “project area” and commence detailed exploration work. The property covered in the option agreement is approximately 1,300 acres and covers approximately 75% of the known mining district. The area to be studied also includes a two-mile radius “area of interest.” The option agreement provides the Company with the right to designate any properties within the “area of interest” as “project area” properties.

 

The term of the option is for so long as the Company continues to conduct exploration activities in the Project Area and can be exercised on 60 days’ notice to Santa Fe.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

NOTE 5 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.01 per share, and 10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.001 per share.

 

All shares of common stock have equal voting rights and, when validly issued and outstanding, are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share in all matters to be voted upon by shareholders. Shares of common stock have no pre-emptive, subscription, conversion or redemption rights and may be issued only as fully paid and non- assessable shares. Holders of common stock are entitled to equal ratable rights to dividends and distributions with respect to the common stock, as may be declared by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) out of funds legally available. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution to them after payment or provision for all liabilities and any preferential liquidation rights of any preferred stock then outstanding.

 

In October 2023, we issued 56,537 shares of common stock related to director fees earned and expensed during the year ended August 31, 2023.

 

During the quarter ended November 30, 2023, the Company recognized stock compensation and a corresponding charge to additional paid-in capital in the amount of $46,504 for director’s fees earned during the quarter. The Company plans to issue the related 147,775 shares of common stock in January 2024.

 

During the quarter ended November 30, 2023, the Company granted a total of 30,000 stock options, with an exercise price of $1.97 per share and a fair value of $11,330 on the date of grant to a consultant. The fair value of the options was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average assumptions used to calculate the fair market value are as follows: (i) risk-free interest rate of 4.23% (ii) estimated volatility of 425.35% (iii) dividend yield of 0.00% and (iv) expected life of all options of 5 years. The Company recognized the full $11,330 as compensation expense during the three months ended November 30, 2023.
