The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

  1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

    Irving Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Irving") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on August 28, 2015 and is listed for trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") under the symbol "IRV". The Company is a junior resource exploration company that is involved in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Company's corporate office is located at 999 Canada Place, Suite 404, Vancouver, BC V6C 3E2.

    These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business in the foreseeable future. As at August 31, 2025, the Company had working capital of

    $2,524,078 (February 28, 2025 - $3,103,312), had not yet achieved profitable operations and had accumulated a deficit of $26,247,000 since its inception and will require additional funding to maintain its operations. These events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

  2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
    1. Statement of Compliance

      These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 Interim Financial Reporting under IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").

      These condensed interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the Company's most recent annual financial statements but do not contain all of the information required for full annual financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2025.

    2. Basis of Measurement

      These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments measured at their fair value. In addition, these financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information.

      The preparation of interim condensed financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires management to make certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement of complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 4.

    3. Approval of the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were reviewed by the Audit Committee and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on October 28, 2025.

  1. BASIS OF PREPARATION (cont'd) Principles of consolidation

    The condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the parent company, Irving Resources Inc., and its subsidiaries listed below:

    All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

  2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION New accounting standards not yet adopted

    IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which will replace IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements aims to improve how companies communicate in their financial statements, with a focus on information about financial performance in the statement of profit or loss, in particular additional defined subtotals, disclosures about management defined performance measures and new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information. IFRS 18 is accompanied by limited amendments to the requirements in IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows. IFRS 18 is effective from 1 January 2027. Companies are permitted to apply IFRS 18 before that date. The Company is currently assessing the impact the new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

  3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

    The Company makes estimates and assumptions about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

    The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in comprehensive income in the period of the change, if the change affects that period only, or in the period of the change and future periods, if the change affects both. Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the statement of financial position date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

    1. Exploration and evaluation expenditures

The application of the Company's accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditures requires judgment in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits will flow to the Company, which

  1. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS (cont'd)
    1. Exploration and evaluation expenditures (cont'd)

      may be based on assumptions about future events or circumstances. Estimates and assumptions made may change if new information becomes available. If, after expenditures are capitalized, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditures is unlikely, the amount capitalized is written off in profit or loss in the period the new information becomes available.

    2. Share-based payment transactions

      The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. Estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions requires determining the most appropriate valuation model, which is dependent on the terms and conditions of the grant. This estimate also requires determining the most appropriate inputs to the valuation model including the expected life of the share option, volatility and dividend yield and making assumptions about them. The assumptions and models used for estimating fair value for share-based payment transactions are discussed in Note 10.

    3. Income taxes

      Significant judgement is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognizes liabilities and contingencies for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Company's current understanding of the tax law. For matters where it is probable that an adjustment will be made, the Company records its best estimate of the tax liability including the related interest and penalties in the current tax provision. Management believes they have adequately provided for the probable outcome of these matters; however, the final outcome may result in a materially different outcome than the amount included in the tax liabilities.

      In addition, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward to the extent there are sufficient taxable temporary differences (deferred tax liabilities) relating to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity against which the unused tax losses can be utilized. However, utilization of the tax losses also depends on the ability of the taxable entity to satisfy certain tests at the time the losses are recouped.

    4. Significant influence over associate

      Management deems the Company to have significant influence over an associate when the Company is able to influence the financial and operating decisions of the associate. The Company has determined that its investment in a joint venture company as outlined in Note 9 is an investment in associate.

    5. Going concern

      The Company's assessment of its ability to continue as a going concern requires significant judgments about whether there are material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

  2. RECEIVABLES

    The Company's receivables arise mainly from receivable from investment in associate and goods and services tax due from Canadian government taxation authorities.

The related payments are recognized as an expense in the period in which the payment occurs and are included in the condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

  3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

IFRS 7 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

As at August 31, 2025, the Company's financial instruments are comprised of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and lease liabilities. The carrying value of accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate its fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of this financial instrument. Lease liabilities are accreted over lease terms at market interest rates using the effective interest rate method.

The Company has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments: credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk. Management and the Board of Directors monitor risk management activities and review the adequacy of such activities.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if a customer or counter party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's credit risk is limited to the carrying amount on the statement of financial position and arises from the Company's cash and receivables.

  1. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont'd)

    Credit risk (cont'd)

    The Company's cash is held with high-credit quality financial institutions. Receivables mainly consist of receivables from associate and goods and services tax due from the Federal Government of Canada.

    Liquidity risk

    Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations, and anticipating investing and financing activities. As at August 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $2,445,391 to settle current liabilities of $564,101 of which a significant amount has contractual maturities of less than 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms.

    Market risk

    Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market prices, such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

    1. Interest rate risk

      The Company has cash balances and no interest-bearing debt. The Company's current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term certificates of deposits issued by its banking institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit rating of its banks.

    2. Price risk

      The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to commodity and equity prices. The ability of the Company to explore its mineral properties and future profitability of the Company are directly related to the market price of rare earth elements and other non-gold minerals. The Company monitors commodity prices to determine appropriate actions to be undertaken.

    3. Foreign exchange rate risk

      The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company funds certain operations, exploration and administrative expenses by using US Dollars and Japanese Yen converted from its Canadian bank accounts. Management is aware of the possibility of foreign exchange risk derived from currency conversions. The Company has not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible foreign exchange rate risk at this time.

  2. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

    The Company considers items in its shareholders' equity as capital. The Company's capital management objectives are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern and to have sufficient capital to be able to meet the Company's property exploration plans and to ensure the growth of activities.

    The Company sets the amount of capital in proportion to risk. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company is in the exploration stage; as such the Company will rely on the equity markets to fund its activities. The Company will continue to assess new sources of financing available and to manage its expenditures to reflect current financial resources in the interest of sustaining long-term viability.

    There were no changes to the Company's approach to capital management during the period ended August 31, 2025.

  3. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to the period ended August 31, 2025, 1,170,000 stock options expired unexercised on September 12, 2025.

Subsequent to the period ended August 31, 2025, the Company granted 2,005,000 incentive stock options to its directors, officers, employees, and consultants. The options are exercisable at $0.40 for a period of three years and are subject to vesting conditions.
