Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
1. Nature of Operations and Going Concern
Honey Badger Silver Inc. ( the Company) was incorporated in Ontario, in 1992. The Companys corporate office is located at 401 Bay Street, Suite 2704, Toronto, Ontario M5H 2Y4 and its
common shares are traded and on the OTCQB Market Exchange under the trading symbol "HBEIF.
Honey Badger is engaged in the identification and acquisition of silver-based and other metals-based assets, including high-grade properties, projects with existing mineral resources/reserves, and cash-flowing metal royalties and streams.
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of presentation, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is currently in the exploration stage and has not commenced commercial operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company had a loss of $1,394,519 (2022 $1,626,866) and an accumulated deficit of $23,399,827 (December 31, 2022 $22,005,308).
These Interim Financial Statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, need to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those in the accompanying Interim Financial Statements. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, Management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, three months from the end of the reporting period.
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to the exploration and evaluation properties in which it has a property interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such
interests titles may be subject to government licensing requirements or regulations, social licensing requirements, unregistered prior agreements, unregistered claims, aboriginal claims, and non-compliance with regulatory and environmental
of contracts, expropriation of properties, and political uncertainty.
Working capital at September 30, 2023, is $220,612 (December 31, 2022 - $331,891). From April 11, 2023 to May 24, 2023 the Company completed a non-brokered hard dollar and flow-through private placement, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,261,450
Management believes the Company has sufficient funding to meet the ongoing general and administrative expenses incurred to maintain operations for the short term, however, depending on exploration results and impending and future acquisitions, the Company may need to raise additional funds, through the issuance of equity or debt. Although the Company has been successful in raising funding to date there can be no assurance that adequate or sufficient funding will be available in the future, or available under terms acceptable to the Company. In the event the Company is unable to secure further financing, it may not be able to make additional acquisitions or advance exploration, therefore, for these reasons, there may exist material uncertainties that cast significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
2. Significant Accounting Policies Statement of compliance
The Company applies International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International
ited condensed consolidated interim financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements required by IFRS as issued by IASB and interpretations issued by IFRIC.
The policies applied in the Interim Financial Statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as of the date of filing this report. The same accounting policies and methods of computation followed in these Interim Financial Statements are set out in note 2 of the most recently filed annual (audited) financial statements as
at and for the year ended December 31, 202, except where noted (audited) financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2023, could result in the restatement of these Interim Financial
Statements.
These Interim Financial Statements are presented in Canadian dollars, the Company's functional currency. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest dollar unless otherwise noted.
These Interim Financial Statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 27, 2023.
Basis of presentation
These Interim Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. In addition, these Interim Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information.
Basis of consolidation
These Interim Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiaries: 606596 Alberta Ltd., The Thunder Bay Silver & Cobalt Corp., Silver Storm Royalties Inc. (formerly 2815210 Ontario Limited), Honey Badger Silver (Nunavut) Ltd. and Honey Badger Chile, SpA, all of which have no assets in the current or prior period. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires Management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Judgments, estimates, and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are
based on Mrevious experience. However, actual outcomes may differ from the amounts included in the financial statements.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (Unaudited) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that Management has made at the end of the reporting period, that could have an effect on the amounts recognized in the Interim Financial Statements relate to the following:
Going concern the preparation of these Interim Financial Statements requires Management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company as previously discussed in note 1 above. Income taxes and the recovery of deferred taxesthe measurement of income taxes payable and deferred income tax assets and liabilities requires Management to make judgments in the interpretations and application of the relevant tax laws. The actual amount of income taxes only becomes final upon filing and acceptance of the tax return by the relevant authorities, which occurs subsequent to the issuance of these Interim Financial Statements.
Deferred Flow-Through Premium Estimates recorded costs of flow-through share premium liabilities reflect premiums received by the Company on the issue of flow-through shares. The premium is subject to measurement uncertainties and requires the Company to assess the value of non-flow-through shares. The determination is subjective and does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the premium liability.
Share-based compensation estimating fair value for granted stock options 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 option, volatility, dividend yield, and rate of forfeitures and making assumptions about them. The value of the share-based payment expense for the period along with the assumptions and model used for estimating fair value for share-based compensation transactions are disclosed in note 8 of these Interim Financial Statements.
Warrants The Company may issue units in their financings, comprised of common shares and common share purchase warrants. The fair value of the warrants issued on the closing, is estimated, and reflected in the reserve for warrants account until such time that the warrants are exercised, at which time the corresponding amount will be transferred to share capital. If the warrants expire unexercised, the amount recorded is transferred to contributed surplus.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Certain pronouncements have been issued by the IASB or the IFRIC that are effective for accounting periods on or after January 1, 2023. The Company has reviewed these updated standards and determined that none of these updates are applicable or consequential to the Company and have been excluded from discussion within these Interim Financial Statements.
