FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some information contained in or incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include comments relating to the ability of available cash reserves at July 31, 2025, to be sufficient for greater than the next twelve months; U.S. Gold Corp.’s (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) ability to continue as a going concern; expected vesting of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock and expected legal and accounting expenses to maintain compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the effect of these expenses on the Company’s profitability and our results of operations.
We use the words “anticipate,” “continue,” “likely,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “project,” “should,” “believe” and variations of such words and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Statements that contain these words discuss our future expectations and plans, or state other forward-looking information. Although we believe the expectations and assumptions reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that these expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements as a result of the factors set forth in, or incorporate by reference in this report, including:

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2025
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organization
U.S. Gold Corp., formerly known as Dataram Corporation (the “Company”), was originally incorporated in the State of New Jersey in 1967 and was subsequently re-incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 2016. Effective June 26, 2017, the Company changed its name to U.S. Gold Corp. from Dataram Corporation. On May 23, 2017, the Company merged with Gold King Corp. (“Gold King”), in a transaction treated as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization, and the business of Gold King became the business of the Company. The Company is a gold and precious metals exploration company pursuing exploration and development properties. The Company owns certain mining leases and other mineral rights comprising the CK Gold Project in Wyoming, the Keystone Project in Nevada and the Challis Gold Project in Idaho. The Company has established an estimate of proven and probable mineral reserves under subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“S-K 1300”) at its CK Gold Project, where the Company is conducting exploration and pre-development activities, and all of its activities on its other properties are exploratory in nature.
The Company’s CK Gold property contains proven and probable mineral reserves and accordingly is classified as a development stage property, as defined in S-K 1300. None of the Company’s other properties contain proven and probable mineral reserves and all activities are exploratory in nature.
Unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the “Company” refer to U.S. Gold Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), the instructions to Form 10-Q, and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information, which includes the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and presents the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of July 31, 2025. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accounting policies and procedures used in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, which are contained in the Form 10-K filed on July 29, 2025. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2025 was derived from those financial statements. It is management’s opinion that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made, which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. Operating results during the three months ended July 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2026 (“fiscal year 2026”).
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet, and revenues and expenses for the period then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, valuation of mineral rights, stock-based compensation, the fair value of common stock, valuation of warrant liability, asset retirement obligations and the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company has adopted ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2025
These inputs are prioritized below:
Level 1: | Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
Level 2: | Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. | |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions. |
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) accounting standard for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company’s warrant liability for warrants issued in connection with equity financings in March 2022 and April 2023 (see Note 9) was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model using Level 3 inputs.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash
equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. The Company did
not have any cash equivalents on hand at July 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial
institutions. The Company’s accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
up to $

is carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are
capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any
resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful life of the assets, generally three to
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not recognize any impairment during the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024.
Mineral Rights
Costs of leasing, exploring, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. The Company expenses all mineral exploration costs as incurred. Where the Company has identified proven and probable mineral reserves on any of its properties, development costs will be capitalized when all the following criteria have been met, a) the Company receives the requisite operating permits, b) completion of a favorable Feasibility Study and c) approval from the Board of director’s authorizing the development of the ore body. Until such time all these criteria have been met the Company records pre-development costs to expense as incurred.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 2025
When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized on a units-of-production basis over the proven and probable reserves following the commencement of production. The Company assesses the carrying costs of the capitalized mineral properties for impairment under ASC 360-10, “Impairment of Long-Lived Assets”, and evaluates their carrying value under ASC 930-360, “Extractive Activities—Mining”, annually. An impairment is recognized when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the mineral properties. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the mineral properties over its estimated fair value.
To date, the Company has expensed all exploration and pre-development costs as none of its properties have satisfied the criteria above for capitalization.
ASC 930-805, “Extractive Activities—Mining: Business Combinations” (“ASC 930-805”), states that mineral rights consist of the legal right to explore, extract, and retain at least a portion of the benefits from mineral deposits. Mining assets include mineral rights.
Acquired mineral rights are considered tangible assets under ASC 930-805. ASC 930-805 requires that mineral rights be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date. As a result, the direct costs to acquire mineral rights are initially capitalized as tangible assets. Mineral rights include costs associated with acquiring patented and unpatented mining claims.
ASC 930-805 provides that in measuring the fair value of mineral assets, an acquirer should take into account both:
● The value beyond proven and probable reserves (“VBPP”) to the extent that a market participant would include VBPP in determining the fair value of the assets.
● The effects of anticipated fluctuations in the future market price of minerals in a manner that is consistent with the expectations of market participants.
Leases to explore for or use of natural resources are outside the scope of ASC 842, “Leases”.
Share-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”), which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). ASC 718 also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Accounting for Warrants
Warrants are accounted for in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance provided in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”) as either derivative liabilities or as equity instruments, depending on the specific terms of the agreements. The Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net-cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company) or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). Instruments that are classified as liabilities are recorded at fair value at each reporting period, with any change in fair value recognized as a component of change in fair value of derivative liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Company assessed the classification of its outstanding common stock purchase warrants as of the date of issuance and determined that such instruments, except for the warrants discussed under Warrant Liability below, met the criteria for equity classification under the guidance in ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”; ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”; ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. The Company has no outstanding warrants that contain a “down round” feature under ASC 815-10.

JULY 31, 2025
Warrant Liability
The
Company accounts for the
Offering Costs
Offering costs incurred consisted of legal, placement agent fees and other costs that were directly related to registered direct offerings. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the registered direct offering based on the same proportion as the proceeds were allocated to the warrants and equity. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities are expensed as incurred, presented as offering costs related to warrant liability in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Offering costs associated with the sale of common shares are charged against equity.
Remediation and Asset Retirement Obligation
Asset retirement obligations (“ARO”), consisting primarily of estimated reclamation costs at the Company’s CK Gold and Keystone properties, are recognized in the period incurred and when a reasonable estimate can be made, and recorded as liabilities at fair value. Such obligations, which are initially estimated based on discounted cash flow estimates, are accreted to full value over time through charges to accretion expense. Corresponding asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset and depreciated over the asset’s remaining useful life. AROs are periodically adjusted to reflect changes in the estimated present value resulting from revisions to the estimated timing or amount of reclamation and closure costs. The Company reviews and evaluates its AROs annually or more frequently at interim periods if deemed necessary.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The reporting and functional currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date with any transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency included in the results of operations as incurred. Translation adjustments, and transaction gains or losses, have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company and are included in general and administrative expenses.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases. Operating lease right of use assets represent the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Upon the election by the Company to extend the lease for additional years, that election will be treated as a lease modification and the lease will be reviewed for re-measurement. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.

JULY 31, 2025
The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions” (“ASC 740-10”). When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.
Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits or for any related interest and penalties. In the event that the Company is assessed penalties and/or interest, penalties will be charged to other operating expense and interest will be charged to interest expense.
The Company follows ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement”, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed.
Segment Information
The Company is engaged in the exploration and evaluation of its mineral properties. In accordance with ASC 280 – Segment Reporting, the Company has determined that it operates in one operating and reportable segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an entity where discrete financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (CODM). This determination is based on the manner in which the CODM, identified as the Chief Executive Officer, makes operating decisions, allocates resources and assesses financial performance.
All
activities are related to the exploration and evaluation of mineral properties, and the Company has not commenced commercial operations
or generated revenues to date. Internal reporting and decision-making are performed, and all financial results are reviewed on a consolidated
basis by the CODM, without differentiation by individual exploration property. The single segment constitutes all the consolidated entity,
and the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements are representative
of such amounts. For the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company operated in
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an effect on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
In December 2023, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The standard enhances income tax disclosure requirements for all entities by requiring specified categories and greater disaggregation within the rate reconciliation table, disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction, and providing clarification on uncertain tax positions and related financial statement impacts. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-09 allows entities to apply the amendment prospectively or elect retrospective application. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its annual disclosures.
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 Subtopic 220-40 – Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”) to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses (including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion) in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales, SG&A, and research and development). ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2024-03 may have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company utilized a Monte Carlo Simulation model to estimate the fair values of the April 2023 and March 2022 warrants, which incorporated significant inputs that were not observable in the market, and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The unobservable inputs utilized for measuring the fair value of the contingent consideration reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the contingent consideration. The Company determined the fair value by using the below key inputs to the Monte Carlo Simulation Model.

such, these warrants are recorded at fair value as of each reporting date with the change in fair value reported within other income

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by U.S. Gold Corp. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in interim unaudited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which are duplicate to the disclosures in the audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on July 29, 2025.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments have been made consisting of normal recurring adjustments and consolidating entries, necessary to present fairly the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial position of us and our subsidiaries as of July 31, 2025, the results of our unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024. The results of unaudited interim condensed consolidated operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
The preparation of interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. See “Forward-Looking Statements” above. Our results and the timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including the risk factors described in this report and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025.
Overview
U.S. Gold Corp., formerly known as Dataram Corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), was originally incorporated in the State of New Jersey in 1967 and was subsequently re-incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in 2016. Effective June 26, 2017, the Company changed its legal name to U.S. Gold Corp. from Dataram Corporation. On May 23, 2017, the Company merged with Gold King Corp. (“Gold King”), in a transaction treated as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization, and the business of Gold King became the business of the Company. We are a gold and precious metals exploration company pursuing exploration and development properties. We own certain mining leases and other mineral rights comprising the CK Gold Project in Wyoming, the Keystone Project in Nevada and the Challis Gold Project in Idaho. We have established an estimate of proven and probable mineral reserves under S-K 1300 at our CK Gold Project, where we are conducting exploration and pre-development activities, and all of our activities on our other properties are exploratory in nature.
Summary of Activities for the Three months ended July 31, 2025
During the three months ended July 31, 2025, we continued engineering studies towards the completion of a feasibility study. We continue to enhance our understanding of the Keystone Project deposit in Nevada and worked towards the filing of an exploration Plan of Operation on our Challis Gold Project in Idaho.
An overview of certain significant events follows:
● | In June 2025, we announced that we engaged Mr. Ken Murray of Captrics Consulting to manage the finalization of studies leading to a Definitive Feasibility Study and development of the Project Execution Plan for the CK Gold Project. | |
● | In June 2025, we announced that we contracted Micon International Limited and Halyard Inc. to conduct the next phase of engineering leading to the development of the CK Gold Project. | |
● | In July 2025, we announced that effective with the U.S. market open on June 30, 2025, we were added to the broad-market Russell 3000 Index and the small-cap Russell 2000 Index as part of the 2025 annual reconstitution of the Russell indexes. |

Results of Operations
For the three months ended July 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2024:
Net Revenues
We are a development-stage company with no operations, and we did not generate any revenues for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2024, were approximately $3,638,000 and $2,593,000, respectively. The approximate $1,045,000 increase in operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2025, as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2024, is comprised of (i) an increase in compensation of approximately $88,222 primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation related to RSUs, DSUs and stock option grants to officers and employees and increased salaries of our officers, (ii) a decrease of approximately $437,000 in exploration expenses on our mineral properties due to the decrease in exploration activities and related consulting expenses at our CK Gold property, (iii) an increase in professional and consulting fees of approximately $796,000 primarily due to an increase in general strategic, permitting and engineering studies and consulting services of $566,000, an increase in stock-based consulting expenses of approximately $55,000, an increase in director fees, including stock-based director fees of approximately $27,000, an increase in legal fees of approximately $181,000, and an increase in accounting fees of approximately $67,000, offset by and a decrease in investor relation fees of approximately $100,000 and (iv) an increase in general and administrative expenses of approximately $598,000 due primarily to increases in advertising expenses of approximately $524,000, public company expenses of approximately $23,000 and travel and conferences expenses of approximately $27,000.
Loss from Operations
We reported loss from operations of approximately $3,368,000 and $2,593,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Other Income (Loss)
We reported other income (loss) of approximately $1,561,000 and ($1,733,000) for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We reported a change in fair value of warrant liability of approximately $1,495,000 and ($1,749,000) for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We reported interest income of approximately $66,000 and $16,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Net Loss
We reported a net loss of approximately $20,77,000 and $4,325,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following table summarizes total current assets, liabilities and working capital at July 31, 2025, compared to April 30, 2025, and the changes between those periods:
July 31, 2025 | April 30, 2025 | Increase (decrease) | ||||||||||

Working Capital | $ | 11,323,371 | $ | 8,015,445 | $ | 3,307,926 |
As of July 31, 2025, we had working capital of $11,323,371, as compared to working capital of $8,015,445 as of April 30, 2025, an increase of $3,307,926.
23 |
We are obligated to file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. We expect to spend between $175,000 and $250,000 in legal and accounting expenses annually to comply with our reporting obligations and Sarbanes-Oxley. These costs could affect profitability and our results of operations.
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP and have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, we incurred net losses in the amounts of approximately $2,077,000 and $4,325,000, respectively. For the three months ended July 31, 2025, cash used in operating activities was approximately $3,315,000. As of July 31, 2025, we had cash of approximately $11,350,000, working capital of approximately $11,323,000, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $95,485,000. Our primary source of operating funds since inception has been equity financings. As of July 31, 2025, we may have sufficient cash to fund our corporate activities, general and administrative costs, and currently undertaken project activities related to permitting and engineering studies over the next twelve months. However, in order to advance any of our projects past the aforementioned objectives, we do not have sufficient cash and will need to raise additional funds. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements.
Cash Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities totaled approximately $3,315,000 and $2,194,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended July 31, 2025, increased primarily due to the (i) increase in non-cash items of approximately $3,104,000 as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2024, primarily due to the change in fair value of warrant liability and increase stock-based compensation, (ii) increase in changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $265,000 as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2024, primarily due to changes in prepaid expenses and other current assets and changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and (iii) decrease in net loss of approximately $2,248,000 as compared to the three months ended July 31, 2024.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled approximately $6,496,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2025 primarily due to proceeds received from the exercise of warrants of approximately $6,483,000 and exercise of stock options of approximately $13,000. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled approximately $0 for the three months ended July 31, 2024.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of July 31, 2025, we did not have, and do not have any present plans to implement, any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Critical Accounting Estimates

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
At the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a–15(e) and Rule 15d–15(e) of the Exchange Act).

Item 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act and subpart 104 of Regulation S-K, 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 specified information about mine health and safety in their periodic reports. These reporting requirements are based on the safety and health requirements applicable to mines under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”) which is administered by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). During the three months ended July 31, 2025, the Company and its properties or operations were not subject to regulation by MSHA under the Mine Act and thus no disclosure is required under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act or subpart 104 of Regulation S-K.
