DAKOTA TERRITORY RESOURCES CORP

(An Exploration Stage Company)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2014

(UNAUDITED)


Note 1—Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Dakota Territory Resource Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company”, the “Corporation”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended March 31, 2014 as filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 as reported in our annual report on Form 10-K, have been omitted.


The Company’s absence of revenues, recurring losses from operations, and its need for significant additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2015 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


Note 2—Related Party Transactions


Effective October 1, 2005, we began paying a management consulting fee to Minera Teles Pires Inc., a company controlled by the President and director of the Company. The agreement provides a fixed fee of $10,000 per month of which $5,000 is paid and the other $5,000 deferred until financing is obtained by us. Additionally, the agreement provides for a payment of $1,500 per month for office rent and expenses. On March 27, 2013, Minera Teles Pires, Inc. agreed to a re-structure of the amounts due under the agreement and agreed to forgive a total of $522,579. This amount was recorded to additional paid in capital. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred approximately $34,500 in management fees and rent from Minera Teles Pires Inc. As of June 30, 2014, we owed Minera Teles Pires approximately $144,200 for management fees and out of pocket expenses.


Effective February 24, 2012, we began paying consulting fees to Jerikodie, Inc., a company controlled by our Vice President and a director of the Company. The agreement provides a fixed fee of $9,000 per month plus approved expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred approximately $27,000 in consulting fees from Jerikodie, Inc. As of June 30, 2014, we owed Jerikodie, Inc. approximately $149,800 for consulting fees and out of pocket expenses.


On October 3, 2012 we entered into a consulting agreement with, and issued 500,000 shares to, our former Director, Gerry Berg, at a price of $0.02 per share for a total of $10,000. The Company has also agreed to issue up to an additional 200,000 shares, at a price of $0.02 per share for a total of $4,000, subject to a vesting schedule which begins January 2, 2013 and ended December 31, 2013, based on the amount of time served. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, we issued 25,000 shares to Mr. Berg as stock based compensation valued at $10,000.


Note 3—Mineral Properties


On September 26, 2012, we re-organized with North Homestake Mining Company. With this re-organization, we acquired 84 unpatented lode mining claims covering approximately 1,600 acres known as the Blind Gold Property located in the Black Hills of South Dakota.


On December 28, 2012 we acquired 57 unpatented lode mining claims covering approximately 835 acres known as the West False Bottom Creek and Paradise Gulch Claim Group, the City Creek Claims Group, and the Homestake Paleoplacer Claims Group, all located in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The purchase price was 1,000,000 restricted common shares valued at $0.15 per share or $150,000.



6



On February 24, 2014 the Company acquired surface and mineral title to the 26.16 acres of the Squaw and Rubber Neck Lodes that comprise Mineral Survey 1706 in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Located immediately to the north and adjoining the Company’s Paleoplacer Property, Mineral Survey 1706 was explored by Homestake Mining Company in the late 1980’s through a lease agreement that provided for the conveyance of the results of its exploration to the property owner. Homestake’s exploration included the drilling of 23 holes that produced the discovery of significant gold mineralization at a distance some 550 meters north of the Deadbroke Gold Mine, with gold values up to 14.9 grams per tonne. The Company is required to make annual lease payments of $8,000 for a period of 5 years, of which $8,000 was due upon execution of the agreement. The Company has an option to purchase the mineral property for $120,000.


On March 3, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 565.24 mineral acres in the Northern Black Hills of South Dakota. The acquisition increased our mineral interests in the Homestake District by nearly 23%, to over 3,057 acres. As part of the property acquisition, the Company purchased an additional 64.39 mineral acres located immediately southwest and contiguous to our Paleoplacer Property, including mineral title to the historic Gustin, Minerva and Deadbroke Gold Mines. The three mines were the last of a string of mines that produced ores from fossil gold placers derived from the Homestake Lode and are located at the point where the channel disappears under the cover of younger sedimentary and intrusive rocks approximately one mile north of the Homestake Open Cut source. With this acquisition the Company consolidated and extended the Paleoplacer Property position to a distance extending approximately 3,100 feet along the south to north trend of the channel. The purchase price of the mineral interests was $33,335.


We plan to commence an exploratory program on these mineral properties as soon as financing can be arranged.

Note Payable to Related Party


We had 11 notes payable to our President pursuant to advances which had historically been made by the President. The notes were dated between March 2011 and August 2012, were unsecured, ranged in amount from $10,000 to $50,000, and bore interest at 12% per annum. These notes were re-structured and combined on March 27, 2013 into a single promissory note payable (the “New Note”). In conjunction with this restructuring, the President forgave accrued interest totalling $57,817 (recorded as an equity transaction). The New Note is unsecured, has a principal amount of $265,000, and bears interest at 4% per annum. We will apply 10% of the gross proceeds from any equity financing in an amount exceeding $0.5 million (whether one or more transactions) from and after the date hereof to prepay principal and accrued interest. All remaining unpaid principal and interest is due March 27, 2016.


As of June 30, 2014, the balance of the promissory note payable amounted to $265,000.



7



Note 5—Convertible Note Payable


On August 14, 2008, we executed a 5% convertible note of $100,000 that was due August 13, 2010. The note is now due and payable, however the lender has to date made no request for payment. The note may be converted from time to time, all or any part of the principal plus any unpaid accrued interest ($29,819 as of June 30, 2014) thereof into common stock of the Company at a conversion price per share equal to the greater of i) the closing market price per share of the common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of conversion as quoted on the OTC-BB or such other exchange upon which the Company’s shares are then listed or traded, or ii) $200 per share ($20.00 per share after adjustment due to 1 for 200 reverse stock split; $200 per share after a further adjustment due to a 1 for 10 reverse stock split). The conversion price shall be subject to adjustments. The minimum amount to be converted is $10,000. As of June 30, 2014, this note is outstanding.


Note 6—Line of Credit


We executed a Line of Credit with Wells Fargo Bank in California. The Line of Credit allows us to borrow up to $47,500. The balance of this Line of Credit at June 30, 2014 was approximately $26,700.


Note 7—Common Stock


Our authorized capital stock consists of 300,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.001 per share.


On April 9, 2014 we issued 25,000 shares of our restricted common stock, at $0.40 per share, to a former director for services valued at $10,000.


On May 14, 2014, we issued 203,960 shares of our restricted common stock, at $0.235 per share, to two consultants for services valued at $48,000.


On June 24, 2014, we issued 25,000 shares of our restricted common stock, at $0.35 per share, to a consultant for services valued at $8,750.


Note 8—Consulting Agreements


On March 19, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Wm Chris Mathers to compensate Mr. Mathers as the Company’s CFO with 100,000 shares of the Company’s stock upon execution of the consulting agreement, and an option to purchase 1,000,000 shares valued at $0.14 per share under a 5 year term expiring March 19, 2018.

 

These options vest 25% upon the execution of the agreement and 25% upon each six month anniversary from the date of the agreement, provided Mr. Mathers continues to provide consulting or employment services to the Company on the vesting dates. The Black-Scholes pricing model was used to estimate the fair value of the 1,000,000 options issued during the period, using the assumptions of a risk free interest rate of 1.1%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility of 482%, and an expected life of 5 years. We have determined these options to have an approximate fair value of $140,000. Since Mr. Mathers award vests over an 18 month period, the Company is expensing a total of approximately $5,833 monthly, beginning in April 2013, for this award over the 18 month vesting period in accordance with FASB ASC 718. A total of $17,500 was expensed for the period ended June 30, 2014 as stock based compensation.


Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Mathers cash in the amount of $1,000 per month increasing to $2,000 per month on September 1, 2013 and to $3,000 per month on March 1, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we incurred $44,000 in compensation to Mr. Mathers, which has yet to be paid.


On November 11, 2013 the Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement with Lyons Capital, LLC to provide strategic advisory services and to provide the Company introductions to potential institutional investors through Lyons Capital’s Wall Street Conferences. Lyons Capital received 1,000,000 warrants to purchase restricted common shares of our stock with a strike price of $0.23 per share, expiring on December 10, 2016. The fair value of the warrants issued was $349,224 and vest upon issuance. Variables used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for the warrants issued include: (1) discount rate of 1.10%, (2) term of 2.75 years, (3) expected volatility of 361%, and (4) zero expected dividends. As of June 30, 2014, the warrants remain outstanding and exercisable.

On April 28, 2014, we entered into a consulting agreement with a third party for professional consulting, strategic planning and business development services for a one year term in exchange for $48,000 of restricted common stock at $0.23534 per share to be issued per quarter, and a cash fee of $9,000 per quarter. We issued 203,960 of these shares on May 14, 2014.


On May 15, 2014, we entered into a consulting agreement for professional web development for a two year term in exchange for 100,000 shares at $0.35 per share, issuable over the term of the agreement. We issued 25,000 of these shares on June 24, 2014.


At June 30, 2014, the total issued and outstanding shares were 53,001,336.


Note 9—Subsequent Events


On July 1, 2014, we entered into a one year agreement for scientific research with a consulting geologist. The agreement calls for payment of 100,000 shares of our restricted common stock and a cash fee of $50.00 per hour up to a maximum of 20 hours per month as compensation.


In July 2014, we issued an additional 203,960 shares of restricted common stock pursuant to a third party consulting agreement entered into in April 2014.

Overview and Organizational History


We are a mining exploration stage company engaged in the business of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. Dakota Territory maintains 100% ownership of three mineral properties located in the Black Hills of South Dakota, including the Blind Gold, City Creek and Homestake Paleoplacer Properties, all of which are located in the heart of the Homestake District and cover a total of approximately 3,057 acres. We currently have limited operations and have not established that any of our projects or properties contain any proven or probable reserves under SEC Industry Guide 7.


On March 9, 2012 the Company entered into an agreement with North Homestake Mining Company to exchange common stock to affect the acquisition of North Homestake’s gold exploration properties located in South Dakota. The Agreement was completed on September 26, 2012 and the Company concurrently effected a 10 for 1 reverse stock split. The merger was recorded as a reverse recapitalization and the issuances of common stock were recorded as a reclassification between paid-in capital and par value of Common Stock. North Homestake Mining Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 12, 2011.


On December 31, 2012, the Company completed an agreement to acquire 57 unpatented lode mining claims covering approximately 853 acres in the Black Hills of South Dakota in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which was valued at $0.15 per share on the transaction date.


On February 24, 2014 the Company acquired surface and mineral title to the 26.16 acres of the Squaw and Rubber Neck Lodes that comprise Mineral Survey 1706 in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Located immediately to the north and adjoining the Company’s Paleoplacer Property, Mineral Survey 1706 was explored by Homestake Mining Company in the late 1980’s through a lease agreement that provided for the conveyance of the results of its exploration to the property owner. Homestake’s exploration included the drilling of 23 holes that produced the discovery of significant gold mineralization at a distance some 550 meters north of the Deadbroke Gold Mine, with gold values up to 14.9 grams per tonne. The Deadbroke Mine was the last of a string of mines that produced ores from fossil gold placer deposits that were derived from the erosion from the Homestake lode. It has been estimated than more than 10 million ounces of gold were eroded from the Homestake lode, of which approximately 1.5 million ounces have been realized by various means of historic production.


On March 3, 2014, we completed an acquisition of approximately 565.24 mineral acres in the Northern Black Hills of South Dakota. The acquisition increased our mineral interests in the Homestake District by nearly 23%, to over 3,057 acres. As part of the property acquisition, we purchased an additional 64.39 mineral acres located immediately southwest and contiguous to our Paleoplacer Property, including mineral title to the historic Gustin, Minerva and Deadbroke Gold Mines. The three mines were the last of a string of mines that produced ores from fossil gold placers derived from the Homestake Lode and are located at the point where the channel disappears under the cover of younger sedimentary and intrusive rocks approximately one mile north of the Homestake Open Cut source. With this acquisition we have consolidated and extended the Paleoplacer Property position to a distance extending approximately 3,100 feet along the south to north trend of the channel.



11



We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 6, 2002 under the name Lakefield Ventures, Inc. In September 2012, the Company changed its name from Mustang Geothermal Corp to Dakota Territory Resource Corp, reflecting a change in business. The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation and has not realized any revenues from its planned operations. The Company is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties.


There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as the continuation of our business is dependent upon obtaining further long-term financing, successful exploration and development of our property interests and, finally, achieving a profitable level of operations. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.


Current Plan of Operations


We plan on concentrating all exploration activities on our gold property in South Dakota. During fiscal year 2015, we will require additional new financing of approximately $2.5 million to carry out our planned exploration, none of which we have secured as of the date hereof.


Our planned exploration program will consist primarily of airborne geophysical surveys, surface sampling and diamond drill programs. Additionally, the budget and any use of proceeds covering any equity based financing would provide for the annual maintenance requirements for the Company’s claims, leases, and concessions and our general operating needs.

Our estimated working capital requirements and projected operating expenses for the next twelve-month period total approximately $2.5 million. Our current working capital will not be sufficient to cover our estimated capital requirements during the next twelve-month period; we will be required to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities or through debt financing. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising the required capital or that actual cash requirements will not exceed our estimates.


Since we are an exploration stage company and have not generated revenues to date, our cash flow projections are subject to numerous contingencies and risk factors beyond our control, including exploration and development risks, competition from well-funded competitors, and our ability to manage growth. We can offer no assurance that our expenses will not exceed our projections.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of June 30, 2014, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $848,000.


During our fiscal year ending March 31, 2015, we plan to spend approximately $400,000 for airborne geophysical surveys, $790,000 for diamond drilling, $60,000 for surface sampling and $93,000 for assays, as well as approximately $324,000 for expenses related to exploration programs. The timing of these expenditures is dependent upon a number of factors, including the availability of drill contractors. We estimate that general and administrative expenses during fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 will be approximately $750,000 to include payroll, legal and accounting services and other general and other expenses necessary to conduct our operations.



12



We have no employees. Our management, all of whom are consultants, conduct our operations. We do not expect any material changes in the number of employees over the next twelve-month period. Given the early stage of our development and exploration properties, we intend to continue to outsource our professional and personnel requirements by retaining consultants on an as needed basis. However, if we are successful in our initial and any subsequent drilling programs, we may retain employees.


We currently do not have sufficient funds to complete exploration and development work on our properties, which means that we will be required to raise additional capital, enter into joint venture relationships or find alternative means to finance placing one or more of our properties into commercial production, if warranted. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may result in the delay or indefinite postponement of exploration and development or production on one or more of our properties and any properties we may acquire in the future or even a loss of property interests. We cannot be certain that additional capital or other types of financing will be available when needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favorable or acceptable to us. Our ability to arrange additional financing in the future will depend, in part, on the prevailing capital market conditions as well as our business performance.


On April 9, 2014 we issued 25,000 shares of our restricted common stock, at $0.40 per share, to a director for services.


On May 14, 2014, we issued a total of 203,960 shares of our restricted common stock, at $0.235 per share, to two consultants for services.


On June 24, 2014, we issued 25,000 shares of our restricted common stock, at $0.35 per share, to a consultant for services.


Results of Operations


Three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013


We had no operating revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. We are not currently profitable. As a result of ongoing operating losses, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $1,881,000 as of June 30, 2014.


Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were approximately $241,000. This amount includes non-cash stock compensation expenses of approximately $84,250 of stock compensation for consultants and one of our executive officers. The remaining general and administrative expenditures totaling approximately $156,750 were primarily for legal, accounting & professional fees, investor relations and other general and administrative expenses necessary for our operations. Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were approximately $268,000. This amount includes non-cash stock compensation expenses of approximately $119,000 of stock compensation for consultants and one of our executive officers. The remaining general and administrative expenditures totaling approximately $149,000 were primarily for legal, accounting & professional fees, investor relations and other general and administrative expenses necessary for our operations.


We had losses from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 of approximately $241,000 and approximately $270,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

We accrued interest on notes payable totaling approximately $7,800 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and approximately $7,700 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Estimates


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


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Item 4. Controls and Procedures


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


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


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


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


PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
