ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of 

Texas Mineral Resources Corp. 

Sierra Blanca, Texas

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Texas Mineral Resources Corp. (the Company) as of August 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended August 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended August 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) represented especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

AUGUST 31, 2021 AND 2020

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Texas Mineral Resources Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in 1970 as Standard Silver Corporation. In 2010, the Company changed its name from “Standard Silver Corporation” to “Texas Rare Earth Resources Corp”. In 2012, the Company changed its state of incorporation from Nevada to Delaware under a plan of conversion dated August 24, 2012. In 2016, the Company changed its name to Texas Mineral Resources Corp.

We are a mining company engaged in the business of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. We currently own a 20% membership interest in Round Top Mountain Development Company, LLC (“Round Top”), a Delaware limited liability Company, which entity holds two mineral property leases with the GLO to explore and develop a 950-acre rare earths project located in Hudspeth County, Texas, known as the Round Top Project. The leases, originally signed with primary terms of approximately 19 and 18 years, each currently have remaining terms of approximately nine years and provisions for automatic renewal if Round Top is in production. Round Top also holds prospecting permits covering 9,345 acres adjacent to the Round Top Project. The strategy with Round Top 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 (“Item 1300”).

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Exploration-Stage Company

Since January 1, 2009, the Company has been classified as an “exploration stage” company for purposes of Item 1300 of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Under 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 Company’s financial records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

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. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

COVID-19 Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. Although COVID-19 has not had a significant impact on the Company’s operating results in fiscal years 2021 and 2020, management continues to monitor its impact. The Company is unable to predict the future impact that COVID-19 will have on its future financial position and operating results due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the outbreak.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents currently consist only of demand deposits at commercial banks. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents at banks selected by management based upon their assessment of the financial stability of the institution. Balances periodically exceed the federal depository insurance limit; however, the Company has not experienced any losses on deposits.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

AUGUST 31, 2021 AND 2020

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consist primarily of vehicles, furniture and equipment, and are recorded at cost. Expenditures related to acquiring or extending the useful life of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for repair and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 3-20 years.

Lease Deposits

From time to time, the Company makes deposits in anticipation of executing leases. The deposits are capitalized upon execution of the applicable agreements. 

Long-lived Assets

The Company reviews the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through operations. To determine if these costs are in excess of their recoverable amount, periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related property and equipment costs are based upon expected future cash flows and/or estimated salvage value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 360”), Property, Plant and Equipment. The Company’s assets susceptible to impairment analysis are the mineral properties described in Note 5.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are established in accordance with the Revenue Recognition topics of ASC 606, and accordingly, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. 

Mineral Exploration and Development Costs

All exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred. Costs of acquisition and option costs of mineral rights are capitalized upon acquisition. Costs incurred to maintain current production or to maintain assets on a standby basis are charged to operations. If the Company does not continue with exploration after the completion of the feasibility study, the mineral rights will be expensed at that time. Costs of abandoned projects are charged to mining costs including related property and equipment costs. To determine if these costs are in excess of their recoverable amount, periodic evaluation of carrying value of capitalized costs and any related property and equipment costs are based upon expected future cash flows and/or estimated salvage value in accordance with ASC 360-10-35-15, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

Share-based Payments

The Company estimates the fair value of share-based compensation using the Black-Scholes valuation model, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation. Key inputs and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the exercise price of the award, the expected option term, market price of the underlying common stock, volatility of the common stock, risk-free rate, and dividend yield. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by the option holders, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value.

AUGUST 31, 2021 AND 2020

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method, in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

The Company recognizes and measures a tax benefit from uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company recognizes a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company adjusts these liabilities when its judgement changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate or future recognition of an unrecognized tax benefit. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions within the income tax expense line in the statements of operations. Management believes the Company has no uncertain tax positions at August 31, 2021 and 2020.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the Statements of Operations. Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, including stock options and warrants using the treasury method. Dilutive income (loss) per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and dilutive weighted average shares for the years ended August 31, 2021 and 2020:

At August 31, 2020, options and warrants to purchase 5,081,538 shares of common stock were outstanding but not included in the computation of dilutive earnings per share, because these options and warrants were antidilutive.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Fair Value Measurements

The Company accounts for assets and liabilities measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified with Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying financial statements approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU eliminates, modifies and adds disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU effective September 1, 2020 and it did not have a significant impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the guidance in former ASC 840, Leases. The new standard, as amended by subsequent ASUs on the Topic, requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. For the Company, this standard was effective for the annual and interim reporting periods beginning after September 1, 2019. Its adoption did not have a significant impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.

The FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10 “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU No. 2018-11 “Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements” in July 2018. ASU 2018-10 provides certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 provides an optional transition method allowing entities to apply the new lease standard at the adoption date with a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption (modified retrospective approach) as opposed to restating prior period financial statements. The Company elected to adopt the standard on September 1, 2019. Its adoption did not have a significant impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3 – JOINT VENTURE ARRANGEMENTS

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 Company’s Round Top Project (“Project” or “Round Top” or “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. Morzev began operating as USA Rare Earth, LLC (“USARE”) and in May 2019 notified the Company that it was nominating USARE as the optionee under the terms of the 2018 Option Agreement. In August 2019, the Company and USARE entered into an amended and restated option agreement as further amended on June 29, 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 the Round Top Project. The 2019 Option Agreement has substantially similar terms to the 2018 Option Agreement.

NOTE 3 – JOINT VENTURE ARRANGEMENTS (CONTINUED)

On May 17, 2021, and in accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement, the Company and USARE entered into a contribution agreement (“Contribution Agreement”) whereby the Company and USARE contributed assets to Round Top, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, in exchange for their ownership interests in Round Top, of which the Company now owns membership interests equating to 20% of Round Top and USARE owns membership interests 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 Round Top which contains customary and industry standard terms as contemplated by the Option Agreement. USARE will serve as manager of Round Top and Mr. Gorski, on behalf of the Company, will serve as one of the three members of the management committee.

In connection with USARE meeting its obligations to acquire a 70% interest in Round Top and exercising its right to an additional 10% interest, the Company received total consideration of approximately $3,728,000, consisting of the $3 million upon exercise of the option and approximately $728,000 in previous advances to the Company by USARE, and derecognized 80% of the carrying amount of mineral properties, or approximately $402,000. The resulting gain on sale of interest in mineral properties in the amount of approximately $3,326,000 is included as its own line item in other income (expense).

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

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

The Company accounts for its interest in Round Top 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 Round Top in the appropriate classifications in the financial statements. Subsequent to the sale of an undivided 80% interest in Round Top, there was no significant activity in Round Top requiring recognition in the financial statements.

NOTE 5 – 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 gives the Company 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, the Company will pay the State of Texas a total lease bonus of $142,518. The Company paid $44,718 upon the execution of the lease, and will pay the remaining $97,800 upon submission of a supplemental plan of operations to conduct mining. Upon sale of any minerals removed from Round Top, the Company will pay the State of Texas a $500,000 minimum advance royalty. Thereafter, if paying quantities of minerals are obtained, the Company will pay the State of Texas a production royalty equal to eight percent (8%) of the market value of uranium and other fissionable materials removed and sold from Round Top and six and one quarter percent (6 1/4%) of the market value of all other minerals removed and sold. If paying quantities have not been obtained, the Company 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 2021, our joint venture partner 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 Round Top, the Company will pay the State of Texas a $50,000 minimum advance royalty.

NOTE 5 – MINERAL PROPERTIES (CONTINUED)

Thereafter, if paying quantities of minerals are obtained, the Company will pay the State of Texas a production royalty equal to eight percent (8%) of the market value of uranium and other fissionable materials removed and sold from Round Top and six and one quarter percent (6 1/4%) of the market value of all other minerals. If paying quantities have not been obtained, the Company 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 2021, our joint venture partner 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, particularly Lake Amistad, a large and well-known fishing lake near Del Rio, Texas. The West Lease comprises approximately 54,990 acres. Most importantly, the purchase of the surface lease provides the Company 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 lease to develop the water necessary for the potential Round Top project mine operations. The option to purchase the surface rights covers approximately 5,670 acres over the mining lease and the additional acreage adequate to site all potential heap leaching and processing operations as currently anticipated by the Company. The Company 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 area contains five existing water wells. It is anticipated that all potential water needs for the Round Top project mine operations would be satisfied by the existing wells covered by this water lease. This lease terms include an annual minimum production payment of $5,000 prior to production of water for the operation. After initiation of production the Company 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. The minimum production payment for all fiscal years have been made as of the date of this filing.

Significant components of the deferred tax assets are set out below along with a valuation allowance to reduce the net deferred tax asset to zero.

Management has established a valuation allowance because, based on an analysis of the tax benefits underlying deferred tax assets, it is unable to establish that it is more-likely-than-not that a tax benefit will be realized. Significant components of deferred tax asset at August 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:

As a result of a change in control effective in April 2007, net operating losses prior to that date may be partially or entirely unavailable under tax law, to offset future income and; accordingly, these net operating losses are excluded from deferred tax assets.

The net operating loss carryforward in the approximate amount of $15,989,000 will begin to expire in 2022. The Company files income tax returns in the United States and in one state jurisdiction. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to United States federal income tax examinations for fiscal years ending before 2011 and no longer subject to state tax examinations for years before 2010.

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (CONTINUED)

Under terms of the 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 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 agreement also provides the Company with the option to include in the “project area” properties within the “area of interest”. 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.

Additionally, on November 8, 2021, the Company entered into a financing and purchase option agreement with Greentech Minerals Holdings, Inc. (“Greentech”). Under the agreement, Greentech is responsible for funding initial exploration activities and the bankable feasibility study, estimated to cost approximately $6.5 million, for the Santa Fe project exploration. It is contemplated that the bankable feasibility study will be designed to proceed in five tranches, each based on the success of the previous. It is estimated that completion of all tranches, if successful, would take twelve to fifteen months, depending on variables such as data analysis, weather and permitting.

Upon successful completion of the study, Greentech will be entitled to received 20% of the Company’s initial equity in the proposed joint venture with Santa Fe, equal to approximately 10.1% of the total equity of the joint venture. In addition, assuming Greentech exercises its option to participate in funding the Santa Fe project capital expenditures, currently anticipated to be approximately $15 million, it will be entitled to receive another 20% of the Company’s initial equity in the future joint venture, equal to approximately an additional 10.1%. In total, Greentech, in exchange for its funding, has the ability to earn at least 20.2% of the potential joint venture with Santa Fe assuming successful completion of the overall first project.
