NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.
Organization, Nature of Business, Going Concern and Management's Plans
Panex Resources Inc. ('Panex" or the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 28, 2004. The Company is considered to be an Exploration Stage Company. The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.
Going concern and management's plans:
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Since its inception on May 28, 2004, the Company has not generated revenue and has incurred net losses.
The Company incurred a net income of $90,163 for the six months ended February 29, 2016, and a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of $13,808,150 for the period May 28, 2004 (inception) through February 29, 2016.
Accordingly, it has not generated cash flow from operations and has primarily relied upon advances from shareholders and proceeds from equity financings to fund its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company on July 15, 2015, through the wholly owned subsidiary corporation, Panex Resources WA Pty Ltd. (ACN 607 016 491), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Lazaraus Resources Pty Ltd. The Company purchased Lazaraus Resources' assets, rights and interests to the Exploration License E80/4675 located approximately 85km SW of Halls Creek in the Kimberley Mineral Field of Western Australia and all data reports and technical information related to E80/4675 including copies of all regulatory reporting; metadata files and databases. The purchase price was approximately US$2,200.00. As described in Note 2c the Company also has investments in two mining companies.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a.
Basis of Preparation
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP). The Company's fiscal year-end is August 31.
b.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
c.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period including common stock issued effective the date committed. Common stock issuable is considered outstanding as of the original approval date for the purposes of earnings per share computations. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the sum of (a) the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and (b) additional shares that would have been issued and potentially dilutive securities. During the reporting periods the diluted earnings (loss) per share was equivalent to the basic earnings (loss) per share because all potentially dilutive securities were anti-dilutive due to the net losses incurred. Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options outstanding at the end of the reporting period.
d.
Cash
Cash includes deposits in banks, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.
e.
Investments in Securities
The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Marketable securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses are recognized in earnings. At February 29, 2016 investments consist of 20,000,000 shares and 40,000,000 options (August 31, 2015, nil shares) of Burey Gold Ltd., an Australian listed entity, which were acquired in October 2015 and are accounted for as trading securities. At February 29, 2016, investments consist of 1,000,000 shares in NSS Resources Inc, a Canadian listed entity which were acquired in May 2015 and are accounted for as trading securities. Unrealized gains (losses) for the six months ended February 29, 2016 were approximately $228,401.
f.
Mineral Property and Exploration Costs
The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on May 28, 2004 and has not realized any revenues from its planned operations. It has been primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

g.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined 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 in the principal or most advantageous market. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable, with use of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value.
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and
Level 3 - assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable.
The Company's investments are classified as Level 1 and there are no Level 2 or 3 assets or liabilities.
Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company's market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.
Financial instruments, which include cash, accounts payable, and loans and borrowings, were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of amounts due to related parties are not practical to estimate, due to the related party nature of the underlying transactions. The financial risk to the Company's operations arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
h.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases, as well as net operating losses.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets or liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the tax change occurs. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level, that more likely than not, will be realized.
Management does not believe that the Company has any unrecognized tax positions. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

i.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based payments under the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation consistent with US GAAP. Under the fair value method, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award using the Black-Sholes option pricing model and is recognized to expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Where upon grant the options vest immediately the stock-based costs are expensed immediately. During the current period, there are no options outstanding.
j.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
The Company's functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the United States dollar using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.
k.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist of cash. The Company's cash is in demand deposit accounts placed with federally insured financial institutions in Canada.
l.
Interim Financial Statements
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts from Customers," which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in "Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)," and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of potential goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to the exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date by one year. This new standard is now effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption now permitted to the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its operations and financial statements.
In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15 "Presentation of Financial Statements— Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)": Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The new requirements are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its financial statement disclosures.
In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 "Update No. 2015-03—Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs". To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. The amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in ASU 2015-03 is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its financial statements and operations.

QUARTERLY REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 2016 (UNAUDITED)
In September 2015, FASB issued ASU No.2015-16 "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments". The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this Update with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The Company assessed that there is no impact to the financial statements on this update.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 eliminate the current requirement for entities to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, entities will be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. The amendments may be applied prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard. The adoption of this standard will not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements as its net deferred tax assets are fully allowed for.
Management has evaluated any recently issued accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability and does not believe that any of these pronouncements will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

Stock Options
In August 2012, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of stock options as an incentive to obtain services of key employees, directors and consultants of the Company. For the periods presented there were no stock options outstanding.
