Notes to the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements


1.

ORGANIZATION AND GOING CONCERN


Gentor Resources, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated on March 24, 2005 under the Florida Business Corporation Act.  The Company is an exploration stage corporation formed for the purpose of prospecting and developing mineral properties.  

  

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company has a loss from operations of $3,348,087 (nine months ended September 30, 2010 - $2,432,346) and accumulated deficit of $12,926,419 (December 31, 2010 – $9,578,332), which raises substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue on a going concern basis.  


The Company intends to fund operations through equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditure, working capital and other cash requirements. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon it emerging from the exploration stage, obtaining additional financing to continue operations, exploring and developing the mining properties and the discovery, development and sale of ore reserves.


These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and 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 PRESENTATION


The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 are unaudited. However, in the opinion of the Company, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected therein. Certain financial information, which is normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), but is not required for interim reporting purposes, has not been presented. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


 b)

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION


The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Gentor Idaho and Gentor Resources Limited (formerly known as APM Mining Limited).  Gentor Idaho was incorporated on June 28, 2007 under the laws of the State of Idaho.  APM Mining Limited was incorporated on November 19, 2009 under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and changed its name from APM Mining Limited on April 30, 2010 following its acquisition by the Company on March 8, 2010 (see note 3). Intercompany balances and transaction have been eliminated in preparing the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements.



c)

MINERAL PROPERTIES AND EXPLORATION COSTS


Exploration costs pertaining to mineral properties with no proven reserves are charged to operations as incurred. When it is determined that mineral properties can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, costs incurred to develop such properties are capitalized. Such costs will be depreciated using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserves. The Company is in the exploration stage and has not yet realized any revenue from its planned operations.


d)

CAPITAL ASSETS


Capital assets are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded as follows:


Vehicle

-

Straight line over a range of two to four years

Mining equipment

-

Straight line over four years

Office equipment

-

Straight line over four years

Furniture and fixtures

-

20% declining balance basis

Building

-

Straight line over five years

 

e)

ASSET IMPAIRMENT


The Company monitors events and changes in circumstances, which may require an assessment of the recoverability of its long-lived assets.  If required, the Company would assess recoverability using estimated undiscounted future operating cash flows of the related asset or asset grouping. Assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows generated by other asset groups.  If the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable, an impairment loss is recognized in operations, measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value.  No impairment losses were warranted or recorded for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011, and 2010.  Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value less cost to sell.


f)

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS


The fair value of the liability of an asset retirement obligation is recorded when it is incurred and the corresponding increase to the asset is depreciated over the estimated life of the asset. The liability is periodically adjusted to reflect changes in the estimates present value resulting from the passage of time and revisions to the estimates of either the timing or amount of the asset retirement obligation.  The Company has no asset retirement obligations recorded on its balance sheets as at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.        

 

g)

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION


The Company has a stock option plan, which is described in note 12(c).  The Company uses the fair value method of accounting for stock options granted to directors, officers and employees whereby the fair value of options granted measured at the grant date is recorded as a compensation expense in the financial statements over the requisite employee service period (usually the vesting period).  Compensation expense on stock options granted to non-employees is measured at the earlier of the completion of performance and the date the options are vested using the fair value method and is recorded as an expense in the same period as if the Company had paid cash for the goods or services received.  Any consideration paid by directors, officers, employees and consultants on exercise of stock options or purchase of shares is credited to capital stock.  Shares are issued from treasury upon the exercise of stock options.  The Company estimates that all options will vest. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.


h)

CASH


Cash consists of bank balances. The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts that at times, may exceed US and Canadian federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.


i)

FOREIGN EXCHANGE


The Company’s functional and reporting currency is United States dollars. The functional currency of the foreign operations is in United States dollars and amounts are translated as follows: monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the spot rates of exchange in effect at the end of the period; non-monetary items are translated at historical exchange rates in effect on the dates of the transactions. Revenues and expense items are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the period, except for depreciation which is translated at its corresponding historical rate. Realized and unrealized exchange gains and losses are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.


j)

USE OF ESTIMATES


The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from management's best estimates as additional information becomes available in the future. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, current facts, and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant estimates and assumptions include those related to the recoverability of mineral properties and capital assets, estimation of future income taxes, useful lives of depreciable assets, and fair value estimates for stock options and warrants.


k)

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


Effective January 1, 2008, the Company implemented SFAS 157 (ASC 820-10) for its financial assets and financial liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period.


In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.


The Company has Canadian dollar ("Cdn$") denominated warrants, the liability portion of which are considered derivative financial instruments requiring re-measurement at each reporting period. See Note 12e for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that was used to estimate values of all warrants granted.


l)

INCOME TAXES


Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes, which require the use of the asset/liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes and tax benefits are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company recognizes deferred taxes for the estimated future tax effects attributable to deductible temporary differences and loss carryforwards when realization is more likely than not.  The deferred taxes for the Company amount to nil at the balance sheet date.


Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” requires that the Company recognize the impact of a tax position in our financial statement if the position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination and on the technical merits of the position. At September 30, 2011, the Company has no material unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not anticipate any material change in the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to occur within the next twelve months.


m)

LOSS PER SHARE


Basic loss per share calculations are based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury method.  The treasury method assumes that outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants with an average exercise price below market price of the underlying shares are exercised and the assumed proceeds are used to repurchase common shares of the Company at the average market price of the common shares for the period.  As the Company is incurring losses, basic and diluted loss per share are the same since including the exercise of outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants in the diluted loss per share calculation would be anti-dilutive.   


3.

ACQUISITION


On March 8, 2010, pursuant to a stock exchange agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Gentor Resources Limited (formerly APM Mining Limited) in exchange for 10,362,000 of its own common shares.

(1) Warrant life extended by six months by the Company on October 5, 2011.  See subsequent event Note 16.


As of September 30, 2011, the weighted average price of the warrants was $0.47 (December 31, 2010 - $0.55).  The number of warrants that were cancelled, expired and exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was nil (see note 16) (year ended December 31, 2010 – nil).


The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to estimate values of the warrants granted based on the following assumptions:


(i)

Risk-free interest rate: 0.23% - 0.28% which is based on the US Treasury bond rate in effect at the time of grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the warrants (December 31, 2010; 0.22% -1.01%)

(ii)

 (1) The exercise price for the Canadian dollar common share purchase warrant is Cdn$1.25 for one share and converted at day of issue.


As of September 30, 2011, the weighted average price of the warrants was $0.35 (December 31, 2010 $nil).  The number of Canadian dollar common share purchase warrants that were cancelled, expired and exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was nil (year ended December 31, 2010 – nil). The Canadian dollar common share purchase warrants include both an equity and liability component.


The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was used to estimate values of the Canadian dollar common share purchase warrants granted based on the following assumptions:


(i)

Risk-free interest rate: 0.87% - 1.06% which is based on the Canadian marketable bonds, average yield 1-3 year rates in effect at the time of grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the warrants (December 31, 2010; nil)

(ii)

Expected volatility: 75.68% - 80.45%, which is based on the Company’s historical stock price (December 31, 2010; nil)

(iii)

Expected life: 1 year (December 31, 2010; nil)

(iv)

Expected dividends: $Nil


During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, $70,333 was recorded as a loss on derivative financial instruments (nine months ended September 30, 2010 $nil).


f)

Loss Per Share


Loss per share was calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, amounting to 58,276,316 and 58,776,050 common shares, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 – 42,163,000 and 36,137,513 respectively).


Diluted loss per share was calculated using the treasury stock method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, 21,967,838 common shares related to stock options and warrants were anti-dilutive. As at September 30, 2010, 4,725,000 common shares related to stock options and warrants were anti-dilutive.

INCOME TAXES


For income tax purposes the Company had $3,348,087 of net operating losses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, which can be used to offset future taxable income. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred net losses and, therefore, had no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the cumulative loss carryforward has been fully reserved. The net operating loss carryforward is $10,310,000 at September 30, 2011. No income tax benefit has been recorded in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements since the recoverability of such assets will more likely than not be realized through known future revenue sources.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


a)

 INTEREST RATE RISK


The note payable held by the Company is due on demand; however, the interest rates are fixed and are not expected to change.


b)

 FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK


Foreign currency risk is the risk that a variation in exchange rates between the United States dollar and other foreign currencies will affect the Company’s operations and financial results. A portion of the Company’s transactions are denominated in Omani Rials and Canadian dollars.  The Company is also exposed to the impact of currency fluctuations on its monetary assets and liabilities. Significant foreign currency gains or losses are reflected as a separate component of the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company does not use derivatives instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.


The following table indicates the impact of foreign currency risk on net working capital as at September 30, 2011. The table below also provides a sensitivity analysis of a 10 percent strengthening of the US dollar against the Omani rial and Canadian dollar as identified which would have increased (decreased) the Company’s net loss by the amounts shown in the table below. A 10 percent weakening of the US dollar against the Omani rial and Canadian dollar would have had the equal but opposite effect as at September 30, 2011.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On October 5, 2011 the Company extended the warrant life by a period of six months for the 17,205,338 warrants issued from October 28, 2010 to March 15, 2011 at an exercise price of $0.90 per share. The exercise price of these warrants is $0.90 at a rate of one warrant for one common share. See Note 12(d) for additional information.


The Company's common shares commenced trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on November 7, 2011 under the trading symbol “GNT”.


The Company also completed in November 2011 its previously announced brokered private placement equity financing (the "Brokered Financing"). Under the Brokered Financing, which was conducted by a Canadian securities dealer (the "Agent") as agent, the Company issued 2,163,000 units of the Company at a price of Usd$0.98 (Cdn$1.00) per unit for total gross proceeds of Usd$2,124,715 (Cdn$2,163,000). Each such unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half of one warrant of the Company, with each full warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of Usd$1.23 (Cdn$1.25) for a period of one year from the date of issuance of the warrant.


In consideration for its services, the Company paid to the Agent a cash fee equal to 8% of the gross proceeds of the Brokered Financing, and granted to the Agent compensation options (the "Compensation Options") equal to 8% of the number of units sold under the Brokered Financing. Each Compensation Option entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of Usd$0.98 (Cdn$1.00) for a period of two years from the date of issuance of the Compensation Option.

Overview


In this Report, references to Awe,@ Aus,@ Aour@ and/or the ACompany@ refer to Gentor Resources, Inc., a Florida corporation.


We are a Florida corporation formed under the name of Gentor Resources, Inc. on March 24, 2005.


We are an exploration stage company (as such term is defined in Securities Act Industry Guide 7(a)(4)(i)) which means that we are engaged in the search for mineral deposits (reserves) which are not either in the development or production stage. Our corporate strategy is to create shareholder value by acquiring and developing highly prospective mineral properties.


Mineral exploration is a research and development activity that does not produce a specific product. Successful exploration often results in increased project value that can be realized through the optioning or selling of the claimed site to larger companies.  As such, we aim to acquire properties which we believe have potential to host economic concentrations of minerals, particularly gold, molybdenum, nickel and copper.  These acquisitions have and may take the form of unpatented mining claims on federal land, or leasing claims, and/or private property owned by others, both domestically and internationally.


As of the date of this Report, we maintain the rights to and are currently engaged in the exploration of mineral properties in (i) the state of Idaho (the AIdaho Project@) and (ii) the Sultanate of Oman (the “Oman Project”). The Idaho Project is a molybdenum-tungsten project located in east central Idaho and the Oman Project is a copper and gold project located in the Batinah Coastal Region of the Sultanate of Oman. The Idaho Project and the Oman Project (each a “Project” and collectively, the “Projects”) are without known reserves and all of our exploration activities with respect to each Project to date have been exploratory in nature. Moreover, there is no assurance that a “commercially viable” mineral deposit (that is, that the potential quantity of a mineral deposit and its market value would, after consideration of the costs and expenses that would be required to explore, develop and/or extract any such mineral deposit (if any), would justify a decision to do so) exists at either Project and further exploration activities beyond the scope of our current exploration activities, such as comprehensive drilling programs, will be necessary before we are able to complete any feasibility studies on either Project. If our exploration activities result in an indication that either of the Projects contains potentially commercial viable quantities of minerals, then we intend to attempt to complete such feasibility studies on our Projects to assess whether commercial exploitation of either Project would be commercially feasible. There is no assurance that commercial exploitation of either Project would be commercially feasible even if our initial exploration programs show evidence of significant mineralization. Furthermore, we currently do not have sufficient financing to undertake and complete advanced exploration activities at both of our Project and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing to do so. As such, we intend to raise additional capital and/or seek a joint venture partner to finance the further advanced exploration of the Projects.


From December 31, 2008 to the date of this Report, the Company has not undertaken any substantive exploration activities at the Idaho Project.  As of the date of this Report, we intend to devote substantially all of our available resources to the exploration activities at the Oman Project, which we believe, is our most promising project. While the near-term outlook for copper prices and demand is uncertain, we believe the underlying fundamentals of the copper business remain positive, supported by limited supplies from existing mines, the absence of significant new development projects and demand from Asia.


Results of Operations


Since our inception on March 24, 2005, we have been classified as an Aexploration stage company@ (as such term is defined in Securities Act Industry Guide 7(a)(4)(i)) with no producing mines and, accordingly, we do not produce income and have not generated any revenue. Our net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $1,115,065 and $3,348,087 respectively, as compared to a net loss of $808,394 and $2,432,346 respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.  The foregoing increases of $306,671 and $915,741 in respective net losses is attributable primarily to our increased drilling and geology costs related to the Oman Project (even though our costs related to geophysics decreased) and our increased general administrative activities, which included costs for items such as stock based compensation, salaries and professional fees.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we spent approximately $765,125 and $2,229,947, respectively, in connection with the Oman Project and $14,967 and $122,914, respectively, in connection with the Idaho Project and are net of interest income. Such expenditures are consistent with our current intention to concentrate substantially all of our available resources towards the exploration of the Oman Project. We also incurred corporate and administrative costs of $468,310 and $1,040,113, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to $464,129 and $1,230,272 for the same period in 2010. These costs included salaries, general office expenses, general legal expenses and accounting and compliance costs.


Depreciation costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were $36,661 and $125,166, respectively, compared to $38,674 and $107,751 of depreciation costs for the same periods in 2010.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of the date of this Report, we do not have sufficient financing to undertake a full exploration of either Project and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing to do so.


Our net cash balance at September 30, 2011 was $7,808,283 compared to $5,331,916 as at December 31, 2010. The foregoing increase in our net cash balance was primarily due to financing activities that resulted in the issuance of common shares and warrants and $49,900 of investing activities which was the result of the sale of capital assets of $159,500, offset by capital asset additions of $109,600. However, even though the Company raised approximately $5,455,000 (after repayment of loans payable and due to related parties) through its financing and investing activities, our cash position only increased by $2,476,367 since our financing activities was offset by (i) $2,978,996 of operating activities, which consisted of exploration activities, general corporate costs and administrative costs and (ii) $109,600 of capital expenditures, resulting from the acquisition of various capital assets.


Total assets at September 30, 2011 were $26,493,396 compared to $24,013,220 as at December 31, 2010. The change in these balances reflects the acquisition of capital assets since December 31, 2010 as well as the increase in cash balance described above.


Current liabilities at September 30, 2011 were $1,345,189 compared to $1,481,182 as at December 31, 2010. This decrease in our current liabilities is the result of the timing of payment of accounts payable and accrued liabilities that were incurred in the first, second and third quarters of 2011.


Over the next twelve months, we estimate that we will incur, at a minimum (i) approximately $200,000 to maintain our rights to the Idaho Project, (ii) approximately $95,000 to maintain our rights to the Oman Project and (iii) approximately $1,000,000 for general and administrative expenses, which includes legal fees and audit fees. Since our cash balance at September 30, 2011 was $7,808,283, we believe that we have enough cash to satisfy what we believe to be our estimated minimum cash requirements for the next twelve months.


However, in addition to our estimated minimum capital requirements for the next twelve months, and considering that we intend to devote substantially all of our available resources to the Oman Project, based on the information currently available to us, we also believe that over the next twelve months we will require approximately $6,000,000 to undertake our contemplated exploration activities at the Oman Project and approximately $1,345,000 to discharge and/or reduce our current liabilities. When we consider the foregoing estimated expenses in addition to our estimated minimum capital requirements, we believe that we do not have enough cash to satisfy our contemplated plan of operation for the next twelve months. As such, the Company believes that it will need to raise additional financing to continue its contemplated operating and exploration activities through the third quarter of 2012. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital when needed, it will be necessary to develop alternative plans that would likely delay the exploration of the Oman Project and/or the Idaho Project.  There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing for the Oman Project and/or the Idaho Project on customary terms, or at all.



Going Concern


Due to our recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations, the Form 10-K of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010 included references to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors had included an explanatory paragraph in their 2010 audit report concerning these matters which raise substantial doubt about the Company=s ability to continue as a going concern. Those financial statements did not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we were unable to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient quantities of capital when needed, it will be necessary to develop alternative plans that would likely delay the exploration of the Oman Project.  There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary financing for the Oman Project on customary terms, or at all.


Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and/or find one or more joint venture partners for our Projects. We currently do not have any financing arrangements in place and there are no assurances that we will be able to obtain additional financing in an amount sufficient to meet our needs or on terms that are acceptable to us. If we raise funds through equity or convertible securities, our existing shareholders may experience dilution and our stock price may decline.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.


Changes in Accounting Policies

 

We did not change our accounting policies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Since the Company is a Asmaller reporting company@ as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required under this item.


Item 4.   Controls and Procedures.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rules 13a 15(e) and 15d 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Report (the “Evaluation Date”). The term disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the United States Securities & Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the Evaluation Date.


Changes in Internal Controls. During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
