NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. (“ITH” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s head office address is 1570 – 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. consists of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tower Hill Mines, Inc. (“TH Alaska”) (an Alaska corporation), Tower Hill Mines (US) LLC (“TH US”) (a Colorado limited liability company), and Livengood Placers, Inc. (“LPI”) (a Nevada corporation). The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral properties, and either joint venturing or developing these properties further or disposing of them when the evaluation is completed. At September 30, 2024, the Company has a
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
As at September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $
The Company will require significant additional financing to continue its operations (including general and administrative expenses) in connection with advancing activities at the Livengood Gold Project and the development of any mine that may be built at the Livengood Gold Project. There is no assurance that the Company will make a decision to build a mine at the Livengood Gold Project and, if so, that it will be able to obtain the additional financing required on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, any significant delays in the issuance of required permits for the ongoing work at the Livengood Gold Project, or unexpected results in connection with the ongoing work, could result in the Company being required to raise additional funds to advance permitting efforts. The Company’s review of its financing options in respect of the Livengood Gold Project includes considering a future strategic alliance to assist in further development, permitting and future construction costs, although there can be no assurance that any such strategic alliance will, in fact, be pursued or realized.
Despite the Company’s success to date in raising significant equity financing to fund its operations, there is significant uncertainty that the Company will be able to secure any additional financing in the current or future equity markets. The amount of funds to be raised and the terms of any proposed equity financing that may be undertaken will be negotiated by management as opportunities to raise funds arise. Specific plans related to the use of proceeds will be devised once financing has been completed and management knows what funds will be available for these purposes. As at November 6, 2024, management believes that the Company will need to secure additional financing in order to have sufficient financial resources to maintain its operations for the next twelve months. As a result, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at September 30, 2024 and the results of its operations for the nine months then ended. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023
(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, 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 period. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. While management believes the estimates to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.
On November 6,2024, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
All currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars unless noted otherwise. References to C$ refer to Canadian currency.
Basis of consolidation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries TH Alaska, TH US, and LPI. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the significance of the inputs used in making the measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
● | Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
● | Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and |
● | Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data. |

Livengood Gold Project Property
The Livengood property is located in the Tintina gold belt approximately 70 miles (113 kilometers) northwest of Fairbanks, Alaska.

Title to mineral properties
The acquisition of title to mineral properties is a detailed and time-consuming process. The Company has taken steps to verify title to all mineral properties in which it has an interest. Although the Company has taken reasonable precautions to ensure that legal title to its properties is properly recorded in the name of the Company, there can be no assurance that such title will ultimately be secured.

8. COMMITMENTS
The following table discloses the Company’s contractual obligations as of September 30, 2024, including future anticipated mineral property payments. Under the terms of the Company’s mineral property purchase agreements, mineral leases and unpatented mineral claims, the Company is required to make certain scheduled acquisition payments, incur certain levels of expenditures, make lease or advance royalty payments, make payments to government authorities and incur assessment work expenditures (as summarized in the table below) in order to maintain and preserve the Company’s interests in the related mineral properties. If the Company is unable or unwilling to make any such payments or incur any such expenditure, it is likely that the Company would lose or forfeit its rights to acquire or hold the related mineral properties. The following table assumes that the Company retains the rights to all of its current mineral properties, but does not exercise any lease purchase or royalty buyout options:

Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2023
The Company had a net loss of $667,302 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $710,351 for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Excluding share-based costs of $1,096 and $67,128 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, consulting fees were $60,413 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $64,159 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $3,746 is primarily due to decreased consulting services.
Professional fees were $57,398 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $104,196 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $46,798 was primarily due to decreased legal services of $39,098 and timing variances for audit services for an increase of $14,348 and tax services for a decrease of $22,048.
Regulatory expenses were $59,478 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $71,940 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $12,462 is primarily due to expenses related to the preparation and filing of a shelf registration during the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Travel expenses were $16,407 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $27,616 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $11,209 is primarily due to decreased travel.
Office expenses were $4,882 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $13,318 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $8,436 is primarily due to lower hardware replacements and supplies.
Mineral property expenditures were $119,401 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $105,479 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase of $13,922 was primarily due to decreased land-related legal fees of $10,878, increased fees for Bureau of Land Management of $2,141, and timing variance for environmental baseline activities for an increase of $22,659.
Excluding share-based payments, all other operating expense categories reflected only moderate changes period over period.
Share-based payment charges
Share-based payment charges for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were allocated as follows:
Expense category: |

| 877 | ||
Wages and benefits |
| 15,344 |
| 12,288 | ||
Total | $ | 17,536 | $ | 80,293 |
Share-based payment charges were $17,536 during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $80,293 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $62,757 was mainly the result of the DSUs issued on July 12, 2023 being expensed for a decrease of $66,251 and stock options for common shares of the Company issued to its employees and consultants vesting during the three months ended September 30, 2024 for an increase of $3,494.
Other items amounted to total other expense of $6,961 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to total other income of $70,607 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. As a result of the impact of exchange rates on certain of the Company’s U.S. dollar cash balances, the Company had a foreign exchange loss of $22,473 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to a gain of $46,691 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. The average exchange rate during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024 was C$1 to $0.7332, compared to C$1 to $0.7457 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. Interest income was $15,512 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to $23,916 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $8,404 was primarily due to short-term investment certificates being re-invested upon maturity at a lower interest rate.
18
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
The Company had a net loss of $2,644,525 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $2,681,785 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Excluding share-based costs of $73,173 and $67,862 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, wages and benefits were $638,168 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $523,815 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase of $114,353 was primarily due to prior year-end payroll accruals reversing of $82,867 and to the timing of payroll benefits of $31,486.
Travel expenses were $29,104 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $41,490 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $12,386 is primarily due to reduced actual travel.
Professional fees were $176,294 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $232,077 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $55,783 was primarily due to decreased legal services of $58,776 and timing variances for accounting and tax services for an increase of $16,434, XBRL services for an increase of $1,531, and audit services for a decrease of $14,972.
Excluding share-based payments, all other operating expense categories reflected only moderate changes period over period.
Share-based payment charges
Share-based payment charges for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were allocated as follows:
Expense category: |
| September 30, 2024 |

The decrease of $24,491 was mainly the result of the DSUs issued on May 29, 2024 being expensed at $293,242 compared to the DSUs issued on May 23, 2023 being expensed at $257,553 and DSUs issued on July 12, 2023 being expensed at $66,251 for a decrease of $30,562 and stock options for common shares of the Company issued to its employees and consultants vesting during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 for an increase of $6,071.
Other items amounted to total other income of $114,848 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to total other income of $76,292 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. As a result of the impact of exchange rates on certain of the Company’s U.S. dollar cash balances, the Company had a foreign exchange gain of $41,962 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to a loss of $13,925 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. The average exchange rate during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 was C$1 to $0.7351, compared to C$1 to $0.7432 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. Interest income was $72,886 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to $79,737 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $6,851 was primarily due to short-term investment certificates being re-invested upon maturity at a lower interest rate. Other income was $Nil for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to $10,480 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds. To date, the Company has predominantly financed its ongoing operations through the sale of its equity securities by way of public offerings and private placements and the subsequent exercise of share purchase and broker warrants and options issued in connection with such private placements.
19
As at September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,746,231 compared to $1,687,690 at December 31, 2023. The increase of approximately $0.1 million resulted mainly from net financing activities of $2.3 million partially offset by operating activities of $2.2 million.
Financing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 included the Private Placement, pursuant to which the Company issued 3,807,911 common shares to existing major shareholders to raise gross proceeds of approximately $2.5 million.
Financing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 included share issuance costs of $50,661 related to the preparation of a new Registration Statement on Form S-3.
The Company had no cash flows from investing activities during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.
As at September 30, 2024, the Company had working capital of $1,747,399 compared to working capital of $1,757,465 at December 31, 2023. The Company expects that it will operate at a loss for the foreseeable future, but believes the current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to cover the anticipated 2024 work plan at the Livengood Gold Project and that additional financing will be required to satisfy its currently anticipated general and administrative costs through at least the next 12 months.
The Company will require significant additional financing to continue its operations (including general and administrative expenses) in connection with advancing activities at the Livengood Gold Project and the development of any mine that may be built at the Livengood Gold Project, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the additional financing required on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, any significant delays in the issuance of required permits for the ongoing work at the Livengood Gold Project, or unexpected results in connection with the ongoing work, could result in the Company being required to raise additional funds to advance permitting efforts. The Company’s review of its financing options includes considering a future strategic alliance to assist in further development, permitting and future construction costs, although there can be no assurance that any such strategic alliance will, in fact, be pursued or realized.
Despite the Company’s success to date in raising significant equity financing to fund its operations, there is significant uncertainty that the Company will be able to secure any additional financing in the current or future equity markets. See “Risk Factors – We will require additional financing to fund exploration and, if warranted, development and production. Failure to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation and could cast uncertainty on our ability to continue as a going concern” included in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Other than cash held by its subsidiaries for their immediate operating needs in the United States, all of the Company’s cash reserves are on deposit with a major Canadian chartered bank. The Company does not believe that the credit, liquidity or market risks with respect thereto have increased as a result of current market conditions.
Our anticipated expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2024 are approximately $3.3 million, which are expected to be funded from cash on hand. These expenditures include $0.7 million for mineral property leases and mining claim government fees and $2.6 million for general corporate and administrative purposes. Expenditures for mineral property leases and mining claims government fees are anticipated to be approximately $0.8 million in 2025 and $0.8 million in 2026. See Note 8 to the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this report for further information regarding the Company’s known contractual obligations.

Critical Accounting Estimates
For a discussion of the accounting judgments and estimates that the Company’s management has identified as critical in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, please see “Critical Accounting Estimates” under Part II. Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s critical accounting estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Environmental Regulations
The operations of the Company may in the future be affected from time to time in varying degrees by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future removal and site restoration costs. Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company vary greatly and are not predictable. The Company’s policy is to meet or, if possible, surpass standards set by relevant legislation by application of technically proven and economically feasible measures.
Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders
The Company believes that it has been a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes in recent years and expects to continue to be a PFIC in the future. Current and prospective U.S. shareholders should consult with their tax advisors as to the tax consequences of PFIC classification and the U.S. federal tax treatment of PFICs. Additional information on this matter is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, under Part II. Item 5. “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders.”
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2024, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the 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 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act: (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
The effectiveness of our or any system of disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the system will be met and is subject to certain limitations, including the exercise of judgement in designing, implementing and evaluating controls and procedures and the assumptions used in identifying the likelihood of future events.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 under the heading “Risk Factors.”
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Not applicable.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, 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 nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company and its subsidiaries 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.
