Joshua Gold Resources Inc.

(An Exploration Stage Company)

Notes to Financial Statements

For the Period from Inception (July 10, 2009) to June 30, 2013

(Unaudited)


1.

Nature of Operations


Joshua Gold Resources Inc. (referred to herein as “Joshua”, or the “Company”) was incorporated on July 10, 2009 in the State of Nevada.


The Company operates as a mineral exploration business headquartered in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. Its principal business activity is the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral property interests in Canada.  The Company is considered to be in the exploration stage and substantially all of the Company’s efforts are devoted to financing and developing these property interests.  


The Company has the rights to three mineral properties, the Carson Property in the Northwest Territories, Canada, the Garrett Property in Ontario, Canada, and the Elijah Property in Shining Tree, Ontario, Canada. There has been no determination whether the Company’s interests in unproven mineral properties contain mineral reserves, which are economically recoverable.


2.

Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Security and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Form 10-Q and Article 8 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.


3.

Going Concern


The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.  The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the Company will continue operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operation.


The Company has incurred a net loss of $1,174,227 for the period ended June 30, 2013, and a working capital deficit of $1,507,801 as of June 30, 2013. As an exploration stage entity, the Company has not yet commenced its mining operations and accordingly does not have any revenue. This casts doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern unless it can begin to generate net profit and raise adequate financing.


The Company has been seeking additional debt or equity financing to support its operations until it becomes cash flow positive.  There can be no assurances that action and plan such as above will be sufficient for the Company to continue operating as a going concern.


The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts classified as liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. These adjustments could be material.

a)

Carson Property


On December 23, 2010, the Company entered into a mineral property acquisition agreement with 2214098 Ontario Ltd. pursuant to which the Company acquired the mining lease to the Carson Property. Under the acquisition agreement, the Company is required to pay:


1.

Cash consideration of $99,060 ($100,000 CAD) to be paid according to an installment schedule between April 30, 2011 and September 30, 2015;


2.

Equity consideration of 1,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued on or before March 30, 2011; and


3.

Royalty of 3% of all net smelter returns upon commencement of commercial production of the property.


The Carson Property is 1,812 acres in area and is located north-north-west of the City of Yellowknife, in the Northwest Territories, Canada. The Company’s interest in the property consists of a 21 year mining lease, which expires on June 30, 2024 and for which the Company is responsible for making annual lease payment of $1,141, in order to keep the lease in good standing.


In accordance with the Company’s accounting policy, the only costs related to the property that can be capitalized are the costs of acquisition of a mineral interest from a third party. As such, annual lease payments are expensed as incurred. The capital cost of the lease is amortized on the straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease. For the year ended December 31, 2011, amortization on the Carson Property totaled $14,978.


On December 13, 2012, the Company terminated its acquisition agreement for the Carson Lake Property with 2214098 Ontario Ltd. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company returned the property to the vendor, and both parties are released from any further obligation under the agreement. The Company has reflected the termination as a loss on disposal of mineral property on the statement of operations of $112,686.

b)

Garrett Property (formerly known as the Eric and Huffman Property)


On June 25, 2011, the Company entered into a mineral property acquisition agreement (the “Fire Lake Acquisition Agreement”) with Fire Lake Resources Inc.

e)

Stock-Based Compensation


The Company incurred stock-based compensation expense in connection with its compensation agreements for its directors, management, and employees. Under these agreements, common stock may be issued as a signing bonus or at certain benchmark dates within an individual’s period of service. Stock-based compensation is calculated as the fair value of the stock issued or to be issued to an individual and is recorded at the time the stock becomes owing to the individual. Stock issued to a director, manager, or employee is deferred in the event that their contract requires the individual to remain employed with the Company for a specified time period after issuance.

Financial Instruments


Fair Values

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, advances from stockholders, dividends payable, and amounts due on mineral rights acquisition. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.


Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that changes in the rates of exchange on foreign currencies will impact the financial position or cash flows of the Company. The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar, thus the Company is exposed to foreign currency risks in relation to certain payables that are to be settled in US dollars. Management monitors its foreign currency exposure regularly to minimize the risk of an adverse impact on its cash flows.


Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss in the event that certain counterparties are unable to fulfill its obligations to the Company. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss on its cash by placing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. Accounts receivables are harmonized sales taxes due from the Canadian government and notes receivable are due from stockholders of the Company.


Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company’s cash flows from operations will not be sufficient for the Company to continue operating and discharge is liabilities. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk as its continued operation is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing, either in the form of debt or equity, or achieving profitable operations in order to satisfy its liabilities as they come due.


Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that fluctuations in the market prices of minerals will impact the Company’s ability to build and achieve profitable operations. The Company is exposed to market risk on the price of gold, which will determine the profitability of future operations, the amount of exploration and development work that the Company will be able to perform, and the number of financing opportunities that will be available. Management believes that it would be premature at this point to enter into any hedging or forward contracts to mitigate its exposure to specific market price risks.

Overview


With respect to this discussion, the terms “we” “us” “our” and the “Company” refer to Joshua Gold Resources Inc.

 

(a)

Corporate History and Background.


We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 10, 2009.  Prior to the Stock Purchase transaction described below in this Item 2, our business purpose was to seek the acquisition of or merger with, an existing private company.  Accordingly, we were engaged in organizational efforts in order to put us in a position where we could seek to target and eventually acquire an existing private company.


On June 4, 2010, Ben Fuschino, our sole officer and director at that time, sold his 35,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which shares represented 100% of our issued and outstanding common stock, to Luc Duchesne and Robert Cormier for a total purchase price of $7,000 (the “Stock Purchase”).  Upon closing of the Stock Purchase, (i) Mr. Duchesne and Mr. Cormier held a controlling 100% ownership in the Company, (ii) we changed our business and became a start-up carbon measuring company and (iii) we changed our name to Bio-Carbon Systems International Inc. to better reflect our new business enterprise.


Immediately after the closing of the Stock Purchase, on June 4, 2010, we entered into a license agreement (the “Cormier License”) with R&B Cormier Enterprises Inc. (“Cormier Enterprises”), an Ontario corporation and a license agreement (the “GSN License”) with GSN Dreamworks, Inc., an Ontario corporation (“GSN”).  The Cormier License and GSN License (collectively, the “License Agreements”) granted the Company licensed intellectual property and technology to conduct airborne and other surveys of forested lands in areas that are difficult to access.  Those surveys would have been conducted in a statistically verifiable process designed for use in carbon trading programs to assess the potential value of the surveyed lands as carbon sequestration land parcels in carbon trading, carbon sequestration, and other greenhouse gas emission control, offset and reduction programs.



16




Also, on June 4, 2010, the Company entered into consulting agreements (collectively, the “Consulting Agreements”) with Mr. Duchesne and Mr. Cormier, pursuant to which Mr. Duchesne and Mr. Cormier agreed to provide the Company with management and advisory services with respect to the intellectual property licensed to the Company under the Cormier and GSN Licenses.


On December 23, 2010, the Company elected to terminate the License Agreements and Consulting Agreements as the Company determined that conditions were not in place for the successful exploitation of the technology covered by the License Agreements.  The termination did not given rise to any penalties against the Company as the termination was concluded through a mutual agreement of separation.


(b)

Current Business of Issuer, Acquisitions of Current Mineral Property Holdings, and Recent Material Transactions.


Upon termination of the aforementioned License and Consulting Agreements, the Company abandoned the carbon measuring business and became a mineral exploration company located in Oakville, Ontario through the acquisition of a mineral rights lease, as described in further detail below.  The Company’s principal business activity now is the exploration of mineral property interests.  The Company is considered to be in the exploration stage and substantially all of the Company’s efforts are devoted to exploring mineral property interests.  There has been no determination whether the Company’s interests in unproven mineral properties contain mineral reserves which are economically recoverable.


Garrett Property (formerly known as the Eric and Huffman Property)


On June 25, 2011, the Company entered into a mineral property acquisition agreement (the “Fire Lake Acquisition Agreement”) with Fire Lake Resources Inc. (“Fire Lake”) whereby the Company agreed to purchase from Fire Lake certain mineral interests located in the townships of Eric and Huffman in the Province of Ontario, Canada (the “Eric and Huffman Property,” now known as the “Garrett Property”) in consideration for the sum of CDN$50,000 and 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Firelake Shares”), to be paid by Company to Fire Lake as follows: CDN$25,000 on or before January 31, 2012; CDN$25,000 on or before January 31, 2013; and delivery of the Fire Lake Shares on or before January 31, 2012.  Additionally, upon commencement of commercial production of the Garrett Property, the Company will pay to Fire Lake a royalty equal to two percent (2%) of all net smelter returns on minerals from the Property.

On February 7, 2012, the Company entered into and closed a mineral property acquisition agreement (the “Original Agreement”), as amended and restated on February 13, 2012 (the “Amended Agreement”), with Shining Tree Resources Corp. (“Shining Tree”), pursuant to which Shining Tree agreed to sell to Company an undivided fifty percent (50%) interest in and to certain mineral interests located in the Townships of Churchill and Asquith, Ontario, Canada (the “Lucas Property”).  As consideration for the sale of the Lucas Property, the Company agreed to deliver the following to Shining Tree in the manner set forth below:

Liquidity and Capital Resources


We are an exploration stage company focused on developing our business in the mineral exploration sector.  Our principal business objective for the next twelve (12) months will be to continue to develop our business plan in this sector.


As of June 30, 2013, we had cash on hand of $111 and current liabilities of $1,536,802.  We do not have sufficient capital to operate our business and will require additional funding to sustain operations through December 2013.  There is no assurance that we will be able to achieve revenues sufficient to become profitable.


We have incurred losses since inception and our ability to continue as a going-concern depends upon our ability to develop profitable operations and to continue to raise adequate financing.  We are actively targeting sources of additional financing to provide continuation of our operations.  In order for us to meet our liabilities as they come due and to continue our operations, we are solely dependent upon our ability to generate such financing.


There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to raise funds, in which case we may be unable to meet our obligations and we may cease operations.

Results of Operations

We did not earn any revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2013, and June 30, 2012.  We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we have entered into commercial production of our mineral properties.  We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of mineral resources on our properties, or if such resources are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production of our mineral properties.
