Auditors' Report



To the Shareholders of

Formation Capital Corporation

(An exploration stage company)



We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Formation Capital Corporation (an exploration stage company) as at February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003 and the consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended February 29, 2004 and for the period from inception on June 13, 1988 to February 29, 2004.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  


In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at February 29, 2004 and February 28, 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended February 29, 2004 and for the period from inception on June 13, 1988 to February 29, 2004 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.

FORMATION CAPITAL CORPORATION

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS


The Company was incorporated on June 13, 1988 under the Company Act of British Columbia and commenced operations on that date. The Company, directly and through joint exploration ventures, is in the process of exploring its mineral properties and has not yet determined, through a bankable feasibility study, whether these properties contain ore reserves which are economically recoverable.


The Company’s emergence from the exploration stage and the recoverability of the amounts shown for resource properties is dependent upon the quantity of economically recoverable reserves, on the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete exploration and development of the properties, on the timing of legislative or regulatory developments relating to environmental protection, and on future profitable operations or proceeds from the disposition thereof.


The Company also owns a hydrometallurgical facility in Northern Idaho.  The facility contains a precious metals refinery, which the Company has refurbished and intends to utilize to  process third party, high content precious metals material to produce high purity bullion.



2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”), which in these circumstances conform in all material respects with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) except as described in Note 16.


(a)

Basis of consolidation


These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Formation Capital Corporation U.S., a Nevada corporation, Formation Chemicals, Inc., an Idaho corporation, Coronation Mines Ltd. (“Coronation”), a Saskatchewan company and Minera Terranova S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company.  All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.


(b)

Use of estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results may differ from those estimates.


(c)

Cash and cash equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents consists of cash on hand, deposits in banks and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.


(d)

Reclamation costs


Ongoing reclamation costs are charged to earnings in the period that they are reasonably determinable.


(e)

Mineral properties


Acquisition costs of mineral properties together with direct exploration and development expenditures thereon are capitalized in the accounts.  These costs will be amortized using the unit-of-production method based on proven and probable reserves on the commencement of commercial production or written-off as the properties are sold, allowed to lapse or are abandoned.  Mineral property costs not directly attributable to specific properties are expensed during the year.






FORMATION CAPITAL CORPORATION

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


(e)

Mineral properties (continued)


Management regularly reviews the carrying value of mineral properties by comparing the carrying value to the estimated net recoverable amounts, based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the mineral properties and their eventual disposition, to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.  Measurement of an impairment loss is based on the fair value of the mineral properties.  An impairment in value would be indicated if the assets’ carrying value exceeds expected future cash flows.


For the year ended February 29, 2004 an impairment of $788,618 was provided. No such impairment was provided for the years ended February 28, 2003 and 2002.


(f)

Property, plant and equipment


Property and equipment are recorded at cost and the Company provides for depreciation on a declining balance basis at the rate of 5% per annum for buildings and 30% per annum on all other equipment.  As at February 29, 2004, the plant was not yet in use. Depreciation of the plant will be charged to operations when commercial production commences.


(g)

Future income taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method.  Under this method, future income taxes are recorded for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities.  These future taxes are measured by the provisions of currently substantively enacted tax laws.  Management believes that it is not sufficiently likely that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income to allow the realization of future tax assets and therefore the Company has fully provided for these assets.


(h)

Stock-based compensation


No compensation expense is recognized when stock options are issued to employees and directors. Any consideration paid by employees and directors on exercise of stock options is credited to share capital.


Pro forma net loss and pro forma loss per share are disclosed in Note 10 (a) (iv) as if the fair value based method of accounting had been used.


Compensation expense is determined when stock options are issued to non-employees and is recognized over the vesting period of the option.  The compensation expense is determined as the fair value of the options at the date of the grant using an option-pricing model.


(i)

Loss per share


Basic loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period using the “treasury stock” method.  Common equivalent shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants unless their effect is anti-dilutive.  The Company had a net loss for all years presented herein; therefore, none of the options and warrants outstanding during each of the periods presented were included in the computation of diluted loss per share as they were anti-dilutive.


(j)

Foreign currency translation


The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar.  Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and non-monetary assets and liabilities at the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction.  Revenues and expenses are also translated at rates in effect at the time of the transaction.  Gains and losses on translation are included in the results from operations.

During the year ended February 28, 2002, the Company issued promissory notes which were financed with warrants to purchase 1,333,333 common shares of the Company at $0.30 per share for five years. The warrants were valued at $140,000 using an option pricing model assuming no dividends are to be paid, vesting occurring on the date of the grant, exercising on the last day before expiry, a weighted-average volatility of the Company’s share price of 73% and a weighted-average risk free rate of 4.45%. The value attributed to the warrants has been recorded as contributed surplus with an offsetting amount being recorded as a deferred financing cost. The deferred financing cost was amortized into operations on a straight-line basis over the life of the promissory notes.


For the year ended February 29, 2004, deferred financing costs of $27,096 (2003 - $27,096) were charged to financing costs and $83,550 (2003 - $Nil) were charged to share capital upon conversion of the debentures.

On April 3, 2002, the Company closed a private placement of 800 units (where a unit consists of $1,000 principal amount and 3,333 warrants) consisting of 7.5% secured convertible (at $0.25 per share) redeemable debentures (“debentures”) in the total principal amount of $800,000 and 2,666,400 non-transferable share purchase warrants, each warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.30 per share for five years.  A fee comprised of 60 units (where a unit consists of $1,000 principal amount and 3,333 warrants) $60,000 debenture and 519,980 warrants, exercisable on the same terms as the private placement warrants.  The Debentures were accounted for as a compound financial instrument comprising both a financial liability and an equity instrument and the Company determined that the equity component of the debentures amounted to $325,000. This amount represented the fair value of the holder's option to convert the debentures into common shares.


On December 9, 2003 and February 24, 2004 the holders of the debentures exercised their options to convert the debentures into common shares at a rate of $0.25 per common share. The Company issued 3,440,000 common shares upon conversion of the debentures.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (Continued)


At the time of conversion the carrying amount of the financial liability included accretion of $141,053 for the principal portion and $80,254 for the interest portion of the liability.  Deferred broker fees and expenses with a value of $36,000 were charged to financing costs and $111,000 were charged to share capital upon conversion of the debentures.


The share purchase warrants were valued at $369,405 using an option pricing model assuming no dividends are to be paid, vesting occurring on the date of the grant, exercising on the last day before expiry, a weighted-average volatility of the Company’s share price of 77% and a weighted-average risk free rate of 4.91%.  The value attributed to the warrants has been recorded as contributed surplus with an offsetting amount being recorded as a deferred financing cost (Note 7).  


For the year ended February 29, 2004, deferred financing costs of $73,880 (2003 - $67,723) were charged to financing costs and $227,802 was charged to share capital upon conversion of the debentures.

Stock options (continued)


(iii)

During the year ended February 29, 2004, 505,000 (2003 - 250,000) stock options were issued to non-employees and non-directors.  Using the fair value method for stock based compensation, consulting costs of $48,840 (2003 - $38,876) were capitalized to mineral properties.  This amount was determined using an option pricing model assuming no dividends are to be paid, vesting occurring on the date of the grant, exercising on the last day before expiry, a weighted average volatility of the Company’s share price of 96% (2003 - 98%) and a weighted average risk free rate of 3.74% (2003 - 4.13%).


(iv)

When stock-based compensation awards are granted to employees, no compensation cost is recognized when their exercise price exceeds or equals the fair value of the Company’s common shares at the date of grant.  Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plan.  Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value based method of accounting for awards granted on or after January 1, 2002, the Company’s net loss and loss per share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND UNITED STATES GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (Continued)


(a)

Mineral property costs


Canadian GAAP allows acquisition and exploration costs to be capitalized during the search for a commercially mineable body of ore.  Under US GAAP these expenditures on mining properties can only be deferred subsequent to the establishment of mining reserves. The Company will commence deferring these expenditures subsequent to the completion of a bankable feasibility study.


(b)

Investments


Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, classifies investments into three categories based on management’s intentions and anticipated maturity dates of the investments.  Under these three categories, the Company’s investments would be categorized as available for sale securities.  Accordingly, the investments would be carried at the quoted market value (Note 3) and the unrealized gains would be shown as a separate component of shareholders’ equity (Note 16 (f)).


(c)

Accounting for stock-based compensation


SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires the use of the fair value based method of accounting for stock options.  Under this method, compensation costs are measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the options granted and are recognized over the vesting period.  For the years ending prior to February 28, 2001, Canadian GAAP did not require stock options granted to individuals other than employees or directors to be fair valued and therefore the options granted to individuals other than employees and directors were fair valued under SFAS No. 123 and were recognized as a consulting expense.


As of January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the standard in Section 3870, Stock-based Compensation and other Stock-Based Payments, of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook to be applied prospectively.  This section establishes standards for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments made in exchange for goods and services.  The standard requires that all stock-based awards made to non-employees be measured and recognized using a fair value based method.  The standard encourages the use of a fair value based method for awards of stock.  Awards that a company has the ability to settle in stock are recorded as equity.  For stock options granted to employees, the Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of the new standard whereby pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share are disclosed in Note 10 (a)(iv) as if the fair value based method of accounting had been used.

Using the fair value method for stock-based compensation, additional costs of approximately $347,999, $75,377 and $279,024 would have been recorded for the periods ended February 29, 2004, February 28, 2003 and February 28, 2002, respectively.  This amount has been determined using an option pricing model assuming no dividends are to be paid, vesting occurring on the date of the grant, a weighted average volatility of the Company’s share price of 84% (2003 - 96%;  2002 - 60%) and an annual risk free interest rate of 3.59% (2003 - 4.16%;  2002 - 4.89%).


(d)

Warrants


Under US GAAP, warrants issued in conjunction with common shares are valued using an option pricing model and disclosed as a separate item in shareholders’ equity.  Although the Company issued such warrants, as each component would be included in shareholders’ equity, there is no net effect on shareholders’ equity under US GAAP for each period reported.  Further, under US GAAP, any alteration to the original terms of the warrants triggers a revaluation of the amount ascribed to the warrants based on the new terms.  The additional value would be reported as a component of shareholders’ equity.


Under Canadian GAAP, no separate distinction in shareholders’ equity is made for warrants issued in conjunction with common shares.


(e)

Foreign exchange


Under US GAAP, assets and liabilities of subsidiaries not reporting in the parent Company’s functional currency are translated into Canadian dollars at rates of exchange prevailing at each balance sheet date.  Revenues and expenses of such subsidiaries are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the dates on which such items are recognized in operations.  Gains and losses arising from translation of financial statements are deferred and disclosed as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.  The Company’s foreign exchange differences between Canadian and US GAAP are not material.

Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities


In June 1998 the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments.  SFAS No. 133 was effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.  The Company does not engage in hedging activities or invest in derivative instruments; therefore, adoption of SFAS No. 133 had no significant financial impact on its financial position or results of operations.


In December 2001, the CICA issued AcG-13, Hedging Relationships, which harmonized the major differences between Canadian GAAP and United States GAAP.


(h)

Flow-through shares


Under Canadian income tax legislation, corporations are permitted to issue shares whereby the corporation agrees to incur qualifying expenditures as defined under the Canadian Income Tax Act, and renounce the related income tax deductions to the investors.


The Company has accounted for the issue of flow-through shares in accordance with Canadian GAAP as follows:


At the time of issue the funds received are recorded as share capital.  Once the qualifying expenditures are made, the carrying values of both the mineral property and share capital are reduced by the amount of the tax benefit renounced, calculated at the Company’s effective tax rate.

(h)

Flow-through shares (continued)


Under current Canadian GAAP as with US GAAP, future income taxes are based on a balance sheet approach which requires recognition of a deferred tax liability on the balance sheet.  In addition, Canadian GAAP does not require a separate allocation of the amount of funds received by the corporation attributable to the flow-through feature at the time of issue.  Also, in the absence of a specific restriction or requirement for the funds to be held in a separate bank account, Canadian GAAP permits funds which are to be spent within the current period to be included with cash and short term deposits for purposes of classification on the balance sheet and statement of cash flows.  Adequate disclosure of the commitment to incur qualifying expenditures and to renounce the related tax deductions is required under Canadian GAAP.


US GAAP requires the premium or discount from the market trading price at the time an irrevocable agreement to issue the flow-through shares exists, to be accounted for separately on the balance sheet.  At the time the expenditures are made, the previously recorded premium or discount is reversed and offset against the tax provision on the income statement, and the deferred income tax liability on the balance sheet is recognized.  Also, notwithstanding whether there is a specific requirement to segregate the funds, the flow-through share funds which are unexpended at the balance sheet date are considered to be restricted and are not considered to be cash and cash equivalents under US GAAP.


The effect of the adjustments which would have been made under US GAAP related to the flow-through shares issued since inception of the Company would be to decrease share capital by $11,196 and to decrease deficit by $11,196 resulting in no effect on share capital.


(i)

Recent accounting pronouncements


In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equities.  SFAS No. 150 requires certain financial instruments that were accounted for as equity under previous guidance to now be accounted for as liability. SFAS No. 150 applies to mandatory redeemable stock and certain financial instruments that require or may require settlement by transferring cash or other assets.  SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.  The Company has not issued any financial instruments that fall under the scope of SFAS No. 150 and does not expect that the adoption of this statement will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


In April 2003, SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, was issued.  In general, this statement amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133.  This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003.  The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 149 will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(i)

Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)


In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB No. 51.  FIN No. 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN No. 46 is effective for all new variable interest entities created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN No. 46 must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2003.  It is not expected that the adoption of FIN No. 46 will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF 04-2, Whether Mineral Rights are Tangible or Intangible Assets.  The Task Force reached a consensus that mineral rights are tangible assets.  In April 2004, the FASB issued proposed FASB Staff Positions FAS 141-1 and FAS 142-1, Interaction of FASB Statements No. 141, Business Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, and EITF Issue No. 04-2, Whether Mineral Rights are Tangible or Intangible Assets.  The proposed FSPs amend SFAS 141 and 142 to conform them to the Task Force consensus.  The FSPs are effective for the first reporting period beginning after April 29, 2004.  The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of EITF 04-2 and FSPs 141-1 and 142-1 will have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or disclosures.
